Welcome to St. Catherine's

Please refrain from bringing

inappropriate items (i.e. chewing gum,

food and drink, cell phones, etc.) into

Liturgy. Thank you for your cooperation.

WELCOME We extend our hands and hearts to you in Christian hospitality, and thank God that you are with us, whether you are long-time, or newly arrived parishioners.

PARISH MEMBERSHIP: Registration and regular use of envelopes are essential to the proper administration of a Parish and are necessary in order to become a

properly identified member of a Parish Family.

New Parishioner Orientation will be on Wednesday January 16th 2013 at 7:00pm in Front of Social Hall

ANOINTING OF THE SICK If you have a serious illness, are facing hospitalization and/or surgery, you should

arrange to receive the Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick. You may remember “Last Rites” but the correct name is Anointing of the Sick, which is not limited to the dying and which should be celebrated before the sick person is unconscious, comatose or in the last stages of death. The Anointing is offered each weekday morning upon request, during the

7:25 AM Mass. If you or your family members are unable to attend Mass, Father will come to your home. Arrangements must be made by the prior Monday afternoon to allow

time for proper preparation. Please call the Parish Office: 676-4403

THE SACRAMENT OF PENANCE “The Sacrament of Penance”, is celebrated during our monthly Reconciliation Prayer

Service which is at 7:00 pm on the first Wednesday of each month.

It is imperative to be present for the entire service for the participation in the service is your penance.

The next service will be held at 7:00 pm on the 19th of December

This Sacrament is also offered by appointment. Please contact the Parish Office at 676-4403

SACRIFICIAL GIVING

A normal Sacrificial Giving Program is a 10% contribution to a charitable organization or church. St. Catherine's is asking for 4%.

Or, consider giving, as a minimum each week, your first hour's salary (or wage) in thanksgiving for the opportunities God has given us to work and produce for ourselves, our families and our communities. Another way to respond to God's generosity is to mention St. Catherine's in your will. Please give prayerful thought to supporting St. Catherine's in this way as well.

MARRIAGE PREPARATION PROCESS

Canon Law stipulates that weddings are to take place in the Parish where either the bride, the groom, or their parents reside. In order to begin the Marriage Preparation Process, you must pick up A Guideline and Policy Booklet for Weddings from our Parish Office and read it thoroughly. Please understand that the marriage preparation in the Diocese of San Bernardi-no takes a minimum of 6 months and that a wedding date may not be set un-til specified criteria are met.

Please Pray for the ill and hospitalized members of our Parish, their families & caregivers.

“Please remember our Elderly and Homebound as well”

Call Irene Roney at 304-2474 Prayer Chain Coordinator

Please call the parish office when you have recovered.

FEAST OF FAITH

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION

Look around most Catholic churches, and you will discover an image of John the Baptist, often in the old baptistery, or in a window near where the font is or was located. He has two feast days in the calendar: one commemorating his birth, and the other his death. There are only three nativities in our calendar: for Jesus, for Mary, and for the Baptist. John’s birthday is reckoned according to the schedule given in Luke’s Gospel of the angel’s announcement to Mary. The angel tells her that her cousin Elizabeth is in the sixth month of pregnancy, and so Mary hastens to help her. Reckoning Christmas as December 25, we count backwards nine months to March 25 for the Feast of the Annunciation. Then we count forward three months to June 24 for John the Baptist’s birth. Halfway to Christmas, his nativity gives ample reason for rejoicing in the summer, and his symbols of fire and water are used playfully in bonfires and dives into the sea. Even at the polar opposite of Christmas in the calendar, the energy of Christ’s birth in the Incarnation provides cause for rejoicing.

FIESTA DE LA FE

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE

En 1726, Juan de la Cruz (1542-1591) fue canonizado por el Papa Benito XIII. Nació en la región de Castilla en España, este doctor de la Iglesia junto con Teresa de Ávila fue reformador de la Orden Carmelita. Muchas órdenes religiosas del siglo XV sufrieron grandes decadencias. Por eso mientras los Protestantes se separaban de la Iglesia, los religiosos descalzos, recoletos y observantes buscaban reformar órdenes religiosas, como la Orden de la Bienaventurada Virgen María del Monte Carmelo, uniéndose siempre más a la Iglesia Romana. Para los reformadores católicos quedarse en la Iglesia no fue fácil, ¡sin embargo se quedaron! Aunque sus reformas fueron apoyadas por los Papas, muchos de ellos como Juan de la Cruz tuvieron que aguantar muchas oposiciones y persecuciones para lograr sus reformas. Estas reformas ardían con el deseo de amar bien a Cristo Jesús y a su cuerpo que es la Iglesia. En sus poesías, Juan de la Cruz muestra la fuerza de esta llama de amor vivo a pesar de la oscuridad de la noche que no lo deja encontrar al amante (Dios).
