Weekly Notes

CHRISTIAN UNITYCHRISTIAN UNITYCHRISTIAN UNITY

One of my favorite childhood movies is Transformers: The Movie. It is a cartoon about robots that can chan-ge into cars, planes and other vehicles. At the end of the movie the robots proclaim, “Till all are one!” I think they took that motto from us. Part of our mis-sion as Catholics is to work for Christian Unity. We are given this mission directly from Jesus in his prayer to the Father during the Last Supper (John 17), in the Second Vatican Council Decree on ecumenism Unita-tis Redintegratio (November 21, 1964) and the Papal Encyclical Ut Unum Sint (May 25, 1995) . This week is designated as the week of prayer for Christian Unity. It is a sad truth that Christians are not united in our beliefs and practices of the faith. We have always struggled with one another, but we’ve been formally separated from our orthodox brothers and sisters for almost a thousand years and we’ve been separated from our protestant brothers and sisters for about five hundred years. The night before Jesus died he prayed a prayer for us his disciples, “That they might be one” (John 17:21). This week we will cele-brate the Mass for the Unity of Christians, the Mass for Promoting Harmony, and the Mass for Persecuted Christians that we might all be one people of faith again as Jesus intended from the beginning. If you cannot attend a mass, please join us in your personal prayer for Christian unity, “Till all are one.”

FR. JEFF

UNIDAD CRISTIANAUNIDAD CRISTIANAUNIDAD CRISTIANA

Una de mis películas favoritas de la infancia es Trans-formers: La pelicula, es una caricatura sobre robots que pueden transformarse en automóviles, aviones y otros vehículos. Al final de la película, los robots proclaman: "¡Hasta que todos sean uno!" Creo que nos quitaron ese lema. Parte de nuestra misión como católicos es trabajar para la unidad de los cristianos. Se nos da esta misión directamente por Jesús en su oración al Padre durante la última cena (Juan 17), en el Decreto del Se-gundo Concilio Vaticano sobre el ecumenismo Unitatis Redintegratio (21 de noviembre de 1964) y la Encíclica Papal Ut Unum Sint (25 de mayo de 1995). Esta semana está designada como la semana de oración por la Unidad de los Cristianos. Es una triste verdad que los cristianos no están unidos en nuestras creencias y prácticas de la fe. Siempre hemos luchado entre no-sotros, pero nos hemos separado formalmente de nues-tros hermanos y hermanas ortodoxos durante casi mil años y nos hemos separado de nuestros hermanos y hermanas protestantes durante unos quinientos años. La noche antes de que Jesús muriera, oró por nosotros sus discípulos, "para que sean uno" (Juan 17:21). Esta semana celebraremos la Misa por la Unidad de los Cristianos, la Misa por la Promoción de la Armonía y la Misa por los Cristianos Perseguidos para que todos seamos nuevamente un pueblo de fe como Jesús pre-tendía desde el principio. Si no puede asistir a una misa, únase a nosotros en su oración personal por la unidad de los cristianos, “Hasta que todos seamos uno solo.”

SAN ISIDRO’S GARDEN CORNER SAN ISIDRO’S GARDEN CORNER SAN ISIDRO’S GARDEN CORNER

Do you like to make things grow? Can you use fresh vegetables for your family at little or no cost? Would you like a place where you can spend time with your kids to produce good results? San Isidro’s Garden might be just the place for you to get involved in this parish. The garden has been a part of the parish since 2011, but there have not been many workers in the garden. Even so, we have produced food for families of the gardeners and food for the St. Vincent de Paul food pantry. But the workers are getting older and unable to work the way they did in the past. We need your help. As the new garden season approaches, the Garden Ministry will use this space to keep you up to date on what is happening now in the garden. We invite you to join us in planning and planting. Later on, we will let you know as things need to be pruned and picked and weeded. Did you know that we have grapes and blueberries and figs growing in the garden? Watch this space.

¿Te gusta hacer crecer las cosas? ¿Puedes usar verduras frescas para tu familia a bajo costo o sin costo? ¿Le gustaría un lugar donde pueda pasar tiempo con sus hijos para producir buenos resultados? El Jardín de San Isidro podría ser el lugar para que te involucres en esta parroquia. El jardín ha sido parte de la parroquia desde 2011, pero no ha habido muchos trabajadores en el jardín. Aun así, hemos producido alimentos para las familias de los jardineros y alimentos para la despensa de alimentos de San Vicente de Paul. Pero los trabajadores están envejeciendo y no pueden trabajar como lo hacían en el pasado. Necesitamos tu ayuda. A medida que se acerca la nueva temporada del jardín, el Ministerio del Jardín utilizará este espacio para mantenerlo actualizado sobre lo que está sucediendo ahora en el jardín. Lo invitamos a unirse a no-sotros en la planificación y plantación. Más adelante, le haremos saber que las cosas deben ser podadas, recogidas y desmalezadas. ¿Sabías que tenemos uvas, arándanos e higos en el jardín? Mira este espacio.
