Feast of Epiphany ¡Que dichosos somos de ser Católicos! Mientras otros están guardando lo de Navidad para otro año, nosotros seguimos gozándonos de la presencia de Jesús con la celebración de la Epifanía. Los Reyes Magos representan el amor universal de Dios y el regalo de su hijo para todos, no solamente para los hijos de Israel.

Este fin de semana empezaremos nuestros programas de Educación Religiosa. Los estuiantes que se preparan para su Primera Cominión estan ansiosos de continuar su viaje to-dos los domingos por la mañana, entre las dos misas. Ellos disfrutan su tiempo con sus maestos mientras aprenden de su libro de trabajo, juegos, y trabajos manuales. Ellos también aprenden de ustedes, la comunidad de San Ped-ro, al verlos amar a Jesús y a su presencia en la Eucaristía.

Los jóvenes que harán su Confirmación también reanudarán sus clases, tratando de comprender los sacramentos y los Dones del Espíritu Santo. Los jóvenes se reúnen todos los sábados por la tarde para rezar, aprender acerca de los san-tos y crecer en su Católicismo. Ellos tambiún asisten jun-tos a la misa después de su clase.

El grupo de RCIA es una mezcla de Jóvenes y adultos en busca de su bautizo, Primera Comunión, y Confir-mación. Ellos han tenido varias personas que les han venido a hablar acerca de varios aspectos de la fe Caóli-ca. Algunos feligreses se han unido a nosotros en nuestro caminar hacia la Resurrección y han compartido la riqueza de su sabiduría, convirtiendose en modelos de nuestos prin-cipiantes. We are so lucky to be Catholic! While others are putting Christmas away for another year, we are keep rejoicing Je-sus’ presence with the celebration of Epiphany. The Magi represent God’s universal love and the gift of his son for everyone, not just the children of Israel.

This weekend we start back with our Religious Education programs. The students preparing for First Communion are eager to continue their journey on Sunday mornings be-tween the two Masses. They enjoy their time with their teachers as they learn through book-work, games, and crafts. They also learn from you, the community of St. Pe-ter, as they see how you love the Lord and cherish his pres-ence in the Sacrament of the Eucharist.

The Confirmandi also resume their classes, delving deeper into understanding the sacraments and the Gifts of the Holy Spirit. The teens gather each Saturday afternoon to pray together, learn about saints, and grow in their Catholic iden-tity. They also attend Mass together following class.

The RCIA group is a wonderful mix of teens and adults seeking baptism, Holy Communion, and Confirma-tion. They have had a series of guest speakers who present aspects of our Catholic faith. Parishioners have joined us on the journey to Easter and shared the richness of their faith, becoming models for our beginners.
