“Making Up” “Making up” is a phrase used among Catholic people who sup-port their church by using the parish envelope system. When someone misses Mass they place their usual offering in their envelope and set it aside. The next time they attend Mass, they deposit two or more envelopes into the collection. “Making up” is really not a burden or additional sacrifice; it is simply a new habit. By adopting this method of weekly support, you provide the parish with a stable and reliable income.

Stewardship Reflection ~ Stewardship Grows “Well done, my good and faithful servant. Since you
have been faithful in small matters, I will give you great responsibilities.” (Matthew 25:21)
In Stewardship God expects us to nurture and develop the gifts He has given us and then generously return a portion with increase. He doesn’t want us to waste or hoard the gifts He has given us; He ex-pects us to grow our gifts, use them wisely and be generous with them. Unfortunately, many of us are not generous in proportion to all that God has given us.

PLEASE PATRONIZE OUR ADVERTIZERS and let them know you
appreciate their support of the parish bulletin.
That’s the best way to thank them for your bulletin.
Prayer for the V Encuentro
God of infinite mercy, you sent your Risen Son to encounter the disciples on the way to Emmaus.
Grant us today a missionary spirit and send us forth to encounter our sisters and brothers:
to walk with them in friendship, to listen to their hopes and dreams with compassion,
And to proclaim your Word with courage, so that they might come to know you once again
in the breaking of the Bread.
Make us all missionary disciples, and stay with us always,
as we seek to share the joy of the Gospel with people of all generations, from every race,
language, culture and nation.
We ask you this with burning hearts, filled with the Holy Spirit, in the name of
Our Lord, Jesus Christ, and through the loving intercession
of our Blessed Mother Mary,
Our Lady of Guadalupe, Star of the New Evangelization in the Americas,
Amen.
