Our Pastor's parish letter......
May May 11, 2008 -- Pentecost Sunday
Dear Parishioners of Holy Family Parish:
In today’s Gospel, we encounter Jesus during the post-resurrection visiting His disciples and breathing upon them. Jesus imparts the breath of God upon them. It is this breath that empowers the disciples to go out and be emboldened to proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ. In Jesus’ “breathing” upon them the new life of the Spirit, the community of the Resurrection -- the Church -- takes flight. That same Spirit continues to “blow” through today’s Church to give life and direction to our mission and ministry to preach the Gospel to every nation, to proclaim the forgiveness and reconciliation in God's name, to baptize all humanity into the life of Jesus’ Resurrection. May we be open to that same spirit to proclaim in and out of season!
To all Mothers living and deceased, I wish to extend my heartfelt thanks for the choice you made for life and love! May God in His love and mercy continue to bless your motherhood and pour forth His choicest blessings upon you this and everyday of your lives. May the Blessed Virgin Mary, Queen of Heaven and earth, Mother of Our Lord Jesus Christ protect and cover all our mothers with Her heavenly mantle to protect and guide until the end of days! God bless all our mothers! Thanks MOM!
In about two weeks the St. Gianna Latin Catholic Community will be arriving here at Holy Family Catholic Church to once again be a part of our family. I ask all parishioners of Holy Family Catholic Church pray for them and welcome them back to our parish. Additionally, if you know any of the families, extend to them a welcome and a hello. I am sure that their transition will be a challenging one. May we be the first to lessen that challenge for them in charity, love, and respect!
On May 25, 2008, we will be having our Corpus Christi celebration and I would like to inform our parish family about a special Mass. Before I do, I wanted to let the parish community know that on May 22, 2008, I will be attending the Cursillo and so I will not be able to attend our regularly scheduled Masses on Saturday and Sunday. However, since there were many who took the Eucharistic training class from Mr. Bola Fasharo, I would like to institute them here at our parish as Extra Ordinary Ministers of Holy Communion. In that regard, we will be having a special Mass at 4:30p.m. here at Holy Family Catholic Church. I encourage all who can attend to come and join us for our Mass, procession, and family picnic afterwards. It will be a blessed day in Christ!
Lastly, I would like to thank our parish community for their support of our teens who will be going to World Youth Day 2008 in Sydney, Australia to see the Holy Father, Pope Benedict XVI. Know that the teens are very excited and very appreciative of your kind and generous support. If you feel you would like to continue to assist us in this endeavor, you may call the office for further details. We appreciate all that you do for us!
Sincerely Yours in Christ,
Rev. Alonzo M. García, Pastor, Holy Family Catholic Church

Religious Terms to know…. Eschatology, eschatological: The study of the eventual outcome of the world, from a religious perspective. In the case of conservative Christians, this typically involves discussion of the rapture, the Anti-Christ, Jesus' second coming, the war of Armageddon, etc. Parousia: From the Greek word "parousia," meaning "presence." The second coming when many Christians expect Jesus Christ to return to earth. An associated event is Christ's imminent return (also known as the "second coming" and "parousia"). This has been expected by many Christians for almost 2 millennia. It was described by the Greek word "parousia" (coming, arrival, presence) during the 1st century CE. Justin Martyr introduced the term "second coming" in the 2nd century. |
