Bautismos Pláticas Los Viernes siguientes a las 7:00 pm en la oficina parroquial: 2018-11 de enero / 8 de febrero / 8 de marzo / 12 de abril / 10 de mayo Celebración del Sacramento del Bautismo:
Stewardship / Colecta seminal “Rejoice always, pray constantly, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you” - 1 THESSALONIANS 5:16 -18
This scripture reading sums up Stewardship. “Rejoice always” means place your trust in God; He will provide all that you need. “Pray con-stantly” means prayer should be a running conversation with God throughout the whole day, every day. “Give thanks in all circumstances” means even in bad situations, thank God. Suffering a little bit helps build empathy for others in similar situations.
Due to the early deadline for bulletin printing during the holiday season the collection for December 10th will be reported in next Sunday’s bulletin. Debido a la Fecha limite temprana para la impression del boletin, durante los dias festivos, la colecta del 10 de diciembre será puesta en el bulletin del siguientes domingo.
