Dear Community,   

Continuing formation in our catholic faith is paramount. We are always looking for ways to offer you opportunities to grow in understanding and appreciation of our catholic teachings. I would like to extend an invitation to join the following program offered by the Adult Education Committee.

Father Lopez has formed an Adult Education Committee for the purpose of offering and conducting a variety of classes in faith formation for adult members of the parish. The first of such classes is designed to give attendees a deeper understanding and appreciation for the sacraments of Baptism and Confirmation.       

Attendees will also learn the Biblical roots of the sacraments and will become prepared, as apologists, to explain and defend the teachings of the Catholic Church. A one hour class will be held at the Learning Center at 11:30 a.m. on Sundays beginning August 30th and will continue for about 5 weeks (not including Labor Day weekend).

Please sign up at the parish office if you wish to attend. If we are to evangelize our families and our community in these trying times, we must first commit to secure for ourselves a deeper understanding of our faith. In Christ, Bob Chadwick.

Brothers and sisters, this is an opportunity for us to help and learn from each other. I pray and hope that after being nourished with the Bread of Life on Sunday you will make time to learn more about our Lord. God bless you and your family.

Fr. Lopez. 


Querida comunidad,

 Es primordial que continuemos la formación de nuestra fe católica. Nosotros siempre estamos buscando formas de ofrecerles oportunidades para que tengan un mayor entendimiento y apreciación de las enseñanzas católicas. Es por esto que me gustaría invitarlos a que se unan al siguiente programa ofrecido por el Comité de Educación para Adultos.

El Padre López ha formado un Comité de Educación para Adultos con el propósito de ofrecer y desarrollar una variedad de clases de formación religiosa para miembros adultos de nuestra parroquia. La primera de estas clases ha sido desarrollada para que los que participen en ella tengan un entendimiento y apreciación más profunda de los sacramentos del bautismo y la confirmación.

Los participantes también aprenderán sobre las raíces bíblicas de los sacramentos y se prepararán como apologetas para explicar y defender las enseñanzas de la Iglesia Católica. Habrá clases de una hora de duración en el Centro de Educación a las 11:30 a.m. los domingos empezando el 30 de agosto y continuando por aproximadamente 5 semanas (sin incluir el fin de semana del Día del Trabajo).  

Si quiere asistir, regístrese en la oficina parroquial. Para evangelizar a nuestras familias y a nuestra comunidad en estos tiempos difíciles, primero tenemos que asegurarnos que nosotros mismos tengamos un entendimiento más profundo de nuestra fe. En Cristo, Bob Chadwick.

Queridos hermanos y hermanas, esta es una oportunidad para que nosotros nos ayudemos y aprendamos el uno del otro. Espero que después de haber recibido el Pan de Vida los domingos tengas tiempo de aprender más sobre nuestro Señor.

Que Dios los bendiga a ustedes y a sus familias, 

P. López
