Rev. Johnson Lopez, 

Pastor  

t Patrick’s Catholic Church  26th Sunday in Ordinary Time September 27 2  15 

Dear brothers and sisters,

 No doubt, this past week was very special to us with the visit of Pope Francis to the US, watching him on TVand especially listening to his speeches. There is a lot that we can learn from his words. One of his manyteachings which stays with me was to work for the culture of the encounter. He said it both in the context of

 politics and church ministry.

Let us analyze these two words: culture and encounter. When something becomes part of the culture, itstays; it does not go away. It is accepted by society at large. The pope is asking us to work for and buildsomething which will last over time. The other word, encounter, is certainly not in the meaning of confrontationor unexpected meeting. With Pope Francis, it is quite the opposite. Encounter, in the words of the Pope, is

coming together, working together, building community and helping each other.

The Pope’s words are very prophetic and full of hope. We live in times in which international relationships

are more hostile than friendly. The other’s difference is a cause for enmity rather than tolerance. Dialogue is not part of this culture. The culture of the encounter, therefore, is a call to the nation’s leaders to be open to listeningto their neighbors, even when it is uncomfortable, to keep the dialogue going, and to be able to live in a peaceful

environment despite the nations’ differences.

As the Pope addressed the Bishops, acknowledging the many challenges which the church faces locally, healso said, “We are builders of the culture of the encounter.” We are called to build the culture of the encounter inthe setting of our parish communities. Any time that we gather in any of our facilities, either to pray, teach, studyor work, we are building the culture of the encounter. The first blessing of any church’s gathering is the fact that

 people come together. 

The culture of the encounter fosters unity and communion. Every encounter of the community is a way of preparing, both personal and communal, to the personal encounter with the Lord; encounter which reaches its

climax in the celebration of the Holy Eucharist on Sunday. I would like to acknowledge those of you who gatherhere at St. Pat’s to either pray, teach, learn or work. Even more, I take this opportunity to acknowledge your

 presence every Sunday at the Holy Eucharist. God bless you.

Fr. Lopez

Congratulations and thank you, Deacon George! 

Prayer Shawls have been made for centuries. People knit shawls toconsole those who are grieving, comfort those who are ill, and bring

hope to those in despair. One can pray for the individual who will

receive the shawl as one knits/crochets:

“O Christ Who healed the broken in body andspirit, be with the person who will receive this

shawl. Be with the professionals who will behelping this soul, as well as the family and

friends who will love and comfort him/her. May

your gentle and yet strong touch reach out to healany pain that this person suffers. I ask this in

Jesus’ Holy Name; Amen.” 

We need your help. Please knit/crochet a prayer

shawl and donate it to our Health Ministry

program to give comfort and hope for those who are suffering.

You may bring them to the Parish Office.

Catholic Faith Answers 

Answer #1: B.  All of the sacraments are necessary and very

important, but they are all pointed toward the

reception of the Eucharist, in which we

 participate in a very true, real Communion withthe entire Church, both in heaven and on earth.

CCC 1324 

Answer #2: 

A.  Because we are humans and aren't just spirits,God decided to give his graces to us and make

Himself known by means of very noticeable,

touchable sacraments. This is why sacraments

involve real, everyday objects, like Baptism(water), Confirmation (oils), and even Confession

(the words of the priest!) CCC 1131 

Question #3: 

B.  "Baptize" comes from a Greek word, "baptizein",

which means to immerse or plunge -  which isexactly what happens during baptism. CCC

1214 

Respuestas a tu fe Católica 

Respuesta # 1: 

B.  Todos los sacramentos son necesarios y muy

importantes, pero están todos apuntando hacia la

recepción de la Eucaristía, en la que participamos es

un muy cierto, la comunión real con toda la Iglesia,tanto en el cielo como en la tierra. CCC 1324 

Respuesta # 2: 

A.  Debido a que somos seres humanos y no sólosomos espíritus, Dios decidió dar sus gracias a

nosotros y darse a conocer a través de los

sacramentos, táctiles muy notables. Esta es la razón

 por que los sacramentos implican, objetoscotidianos reales, como el bautismo (agua),

confirmación (aceites), e incluso Confesión (las

 palabras del sacerdote!) CCC 1131 

Pregunta # 3: 

B. "Bautizar" viene de una palabra griega, "baptizein",lo que significa sumergir o paso -  que es

exactamente lo que sucede durante el bautismo.
