The altar flowers were donated in

loving memory of

Emily Naughtin,RIP By her family and loving friend Donna Wall

Pastor’s Corner

Dear friends, Janet Ueberchaer was so

kind and generous enough to sponsor

the St. Matthew stained glass window.

She was sick at the time she made

the decision. It was our hope to have

the stained glass installed before she

passed away. Unfortunately, we were

not able fullfill this wish.

Though she is not physically

with us, we want to show our

apreciation for her generous

contribution. We also thank her

family members for their input to the

design of the window. We pray that

God pour his blessings upon them

while he receives their mother into

his kingdom.

All the evangelists have a

symbol. The image that we see by St.

Matthew’s left shoulder is a winged

man (angel). Tradition links the

symbols of the evangelists with visions

in Ezekiel chapter 1 and Revelation

chapter 6.

Pope Francis Prayer Intentions...

Que significa ser un Católico Que significa ser un Católico Que significa ser un Católico Que significa ser un Católico activo?activo?activo?activo?

Para ser considerado “activo", feligreses deben estar registrados en la parroquia, asistir a Misa con fidelidad, apoyar la vida de la parroquia y usar el sistema de sobres para su contribución a la iglesia. El sistema de sobres es la única forma en que nos damos cuenta de su asistencia a Misa. La obligación de asistir a Misa los domingos y días de obligación es grave. Esto no es simplemente una cuestión de la póliza de nuestra parroquia. La Ley Divina establece esta expectativa en los Diez Mandamientos.
