A Word From The Bishop

Dreamers

Queridos Hermanos,

Bienvenidos en el nombre de nuestro Señor Jesus Cristo. Doy gracias a Dios nuestro Padre celestial por su valor y su perseverancia en un tiempo duro para nuestra Iglesia y sociedad. Compartimos la ansiedad de los inmigrantes y especialmente de Los Sonadores (DREAMERS) entre nosotros. Vamos a tratar de obtener ayuda legal hasta donde sea posible. Mientras hacemos esto realizamos las palabras del Señor en el capitulo 25 del Evangelio de San Mateo. 

Sepan que oramos a diario por ustedes. 

Ciertamente Dios es fiel va a protegernos 

Saludos

Dear Brothers and Sisters, 

Welcome in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. I give thanks to our God our Heavenly Father for your courage and your perseverance in this difficult time for our Church and society. We share the anxiety of the immigrants and especially of the DREAMERS among us. We will try to obtain legal help so far as possible. As we do this, we realize the Lord's words in the 25th chapter of the Gospel of Matthew. 

Know that we pray daily for you. 

Surely God who is faithful will protect us.

Regards,

Prayers for Las Vegas

Feast of St. Francis

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

Greetings in our crucified and risen Lord. The Book of Daniel refers to "the mystery of iniquity."  That is surely what we see in the horrifying and shocking massacre in Las Vegas. There are times when the depths of depravity shock us, as well as others when human grandeur surprises us as well.  One is dealt with, and the other made perfect, in Jesus’ suffering with and for us.  At such a time as this we should remember the dead and pray for the wounded in our own prayers and in those of our parishes. Thanks be to God that infinitely deeper than iniquity is the costly salvation Jesus has wrought for us.  

Peace

+GRS
