Catechetical Sunday September 15, 2019
The ministry of the Word is a
fundamental element of evangelization
through all its stages, because it
involves the proclamation of Jesus
Christ, the eternal Word of God "The
word of God nourishes both
evangelizers and those who are being
evangelized so that each one may
continue to grow in his or her
Christian life" (National Directory for
Catechesis [NDC] [Washington, DC:
United States Conference of Catholic
Bishops, 2005], no. 17).
YOUR HELP IS NEEDED - In order to have our records in the office up-to-date, we need your help. If you have changed your name, address or telephone number, please call the Parish Office at 713-686-3497.
Please remember in your prayers the repose of the soul
of Richerd Palumbo, husband of Aurora Palumbo and father of
Giuliana and Cristiana Palumbo Santillan.
Let us pray also for the comfort of his entire family and all those
who loved him.
