Proclaiming God’s Love, Together in Christ

L L A M A D O A N U A L D I O C E S A N O

Llamado Anual Diocesano 2017 “Proclamando el Amor de Dios, Juntos en Cristo.” Es una colabora-ción en la que cada parroquia contribuye al financiamiento de los ser-vicios y ministerios otorgados por nuestra Diócesis de San José al al-cance de la feligresía. La meta del 2017 que le toca a la Catedral es $133,000 Hay sobres de donación en la entrada de la Catedral. Cada hogar que participa ayuda a la comunidad parroquial cumplir con la meta. Con un 100% de participación de todos, no sólo lograremos el éxito del año pasado sino ¡lo superaremos!

Estos son algunos de los ministerios y servicios que el LAD paga:

Evangelización y el Catecismo, el Instituto para el Liderazgo Ministe-rial, el Ministerio Social, el Apostolado Hispano, la Fe, la Oficina para la Protección de Niños y Adultos Vulnerables, los Sacerdotes—activos y jubilados, los Diáconos, Seminaristas—sus estudios y el hospedaje– las Vocaciones, el Tribunal, los Servicios operativos tales como la Ofi-cina de Personal, Mantenimiento, los Archivos, Administración y Desarrollo y Comunicación.

La Catedral Basílica también es beneficiada directamente de su apoyo.

Por favor, reflexione esta semana acerca de un compromiso. No tiene que ser pagado de inmediato sino en el transcurso del año si se le hace más conveniente. Hay un video inspirativo sobre la campaña en el www.stjosephcathedral.org. Haz clic en GIVING y en “Annual Dio-cesan Appeal”. El segundo video está doblado al español.

The 2017 Cathedral parish goal is $133,000. Each participating household helps our parish reach its goal toward funding education, training and services to the faithful of our Dio-cese. If we achieve 100% partici-pation, we will not only match but surpass last year’s success!

Here are some of the ministries and services that your ADA gift funds:

Evangelization and Catechetical Ministry, the Institute for Leader-ship in Ministry, Social Ministry, Hispanic Apostolate, Worship, the Office for Protection of Children and Vulnerable Adults, Priests, Re-tired priests, Deacons, Seminary studies and housing, Vocations, Tribunal, Operational Services at the Chancery such as Human Re-sources, Facilities, Archives, Stew-ardship and Development and Communications Services.

La Diócesis de San José

Office of the Bishop

February 14, 2017 It is not an overstatement to say that the majority of Amer-icans are descendants of immigrants or refugees. Indeed, many of our fellow citizens were once immigrants. The story of the United States is a tale of welcome and of new hope. Whether for those from Europe, Asia, Africa, the Middle East, or the Americas, this nation has been a bright-burning beacon and an invitation to a better life in which the gifts of God can be widely shared. Today is no differ-ent. Writing in response to recent developments, Bishop Joe S. Vásquez of Austin, Texas, and Chair of the U.S. Bishops' Committee on Migration stated: "We respect the rule of law and the American judicial process. We remain stead-fast in our commitment to resettling refugees and all those fleeing persecution. At this time, we remain particularly dedicated to ensuring that affected refugee and immigrant families are not separated and that they continue to be welcomed to our country. We will continue to welcome the newcomer as it is a vital part of our Catholic faith and an enduring element of our American values and tradi-tion." San Jose and the greater Bay Area have historically wel-comed various waves of refugees, and the Church has been a willing partner in many of these efforts. This should not change. We recommit ourselves to this form of living out of the Gospel, the teaching of the Lord Jesus to welcome the stranger, for in doing so, we welcome the Lord Himself. With every best wish and kind regard, I remain, Sincerely yours,

Patrick J. McGrath Bishop of San Jose

Oficina del Obispo

El 14 de Febrero, 2017 No queda demás decir que la mayor parte de los America-nos son descendientes de inmigrantes o refugiados. De hecho, muchos de nuestros compatriotas actuales fueron también inmigrantes. La historia de los Estados Unidos es una de bienvenida y nueva esperanza. Sea para los que vinieron o de Europa, Asia, el Medio Oriente o las Améri-cas, esta nación ha sido un faro brillante y una invitación a una vida mejor en la que los dones de Dios pueden ser compartidos entre todos. Hoy en día, no es diferente. Respondiendo a los recientes acontecimientos, el Señor Obispo Joe S. Vásquez de Austin, Texas, encargado del Comité de los Obispos Estadounidenses sobre la Migra-ción declaró: “Respectamos las reglas de la ley y el proce-so judicial Americano. Permanecemos comprometidos a nuestra promesa de recibir a los refugiados y a todos los que huyen de la persecución. En este momento, estamos dedicados en particular a asegurar que las familias refugia-das e inmigradas no sean separadas y que sigan siendo bienvenidas a nuestro país. Seguiremos recibiendo al re-cién llegado ya que es un aspecto vital de nuestra fe Cató-lica y un elemento duradero de nuestros valores y nuestras tradiciones Americanas.” San José y el Área de la Bahía en su historia han recibido varios contingentes de refugiados y la Iglesia ha participa-do de corazón en muchos de estos esfuerzos. Nos volve-mos a entregar a esta forma de vivir del Evangelio, la en-señanza del Señor Jesús de recibir al extranjero, que al hacerlo, estamos recibiendo a Él Señor Mismo. Con mis mejores deseos y bendiciones, soy

Atentamente suyo,

Patrick J. McGrath Obispo de San José
