specially celebrated by the Equestrian Order of the
Holy Sepulcher of Jerusalem. The Rev. Jeffrey Kirby, a member
of the Order will celebrate the Mass commemorating
this feast at 11:00 AM on Monday, September 14, at St. Andrew

For more information, call Michael DiMartino
at 843-663-1277.
WELCOME THE VISITING MADONNA
While we are encouraged to embrace
Jesus’ cross, perhaps the next best
thing we can do as the faithful is to turn
to
the
Blessed
Mother
for
guidance…”Blessed Mother, please
help me.” As human beings, we can’t
do everything. But the Blessed Mother
can go to her Son Jesus and do
wonders.
The Knights of Columbus are offering
intimate prayer devotions in your own
homes to all parishioners so that every
family may experience visitation for one
week from our Visiting Madonna.
Families will begin to experience a
sense of peace, quiet and reflection
while saying the Rosary as a family
with Our Lady. The family that prays together stays together. If
you are interested in participating in welcoming the Visiting
Madonna, please call Sam Konrad at (843) 399-7003 or email
him at [email protected].
This week, The Visiting Madonna will be presented to
George & Muriel Cournoyer at the 12:00 PM Mass.

Initiation of Adults
The R.C.I.A. is a process of spiritual
conversion and growth, over time, in

Church.
It is a faith journey where adults are fully
welcomed into the Catholic Church. If you’re

Sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation & Eucharist,
WE WELCOME YOU!

VIGESIMO CUARTO DOMINGO DEL TIEMPO ORDINARIO
" T U E R E S E L M E S I AS "
( S a n M a r co s 8 , 2 7 - 3 8 )
Queridos Hermanos:
Todo lo que Jesucristo ha realizado es de acuerdo a su
misión que el Padre Celestial le ha encomendado, como El
Mesías. El ha sanado a muchas personas tanto del cuerpo
como del espíritu; ha reconciliado a muchos consigo mismo,
con el prójimo y con Dios; ha criticado los poderes políticos
corruptos de la época; ha integrado a los marginados a la
sociedad; ha ayudado a los pobres y oprimidos; etc. Pero sus
acciones han sido malinterpretadas y no han dado el
resultado que El esperaba. El solamente ha recibido
incomprensión, conflicto y fracaso. En el Evangelio de este
Domingo, vemos cómo Jesús quiere saber, si realmente sus
Apóstoles saben quién es El. Por lo tanto; les hace dos
preguntas: ¿Qué dice la gente de Mí?...¿Quién soy Yo para
ustedes?...
Pedro responde: "Tu eres eres el Mesías". Su respuesta es
acertada; sin embargo, lo que él piensa es diferente a su respuesta. Porque Pedro quiere un Mesías triunfante,
un líder politico y terrenal. Por eso Jesús les habla con claridad: "Tengo que padecer, sufrir mucho, ser
rechazado, ejecutado, pero al tercer día resucitaré". El se da a sí mismo no el título de Mesías, sino el de Hijo
del Hombre, que es menos pretencioso, refiriéndose a la profecía de Isaías, donde nos habla acerca del Siervo
de Yahvé, quién libera al pueblo oprimido, no a través del triunfo, sino a través del escarnio y
humillación. Pedro no entiende esta posición de Jesús, y quiere llevarlo por otros caminos. Jesús le llama la
atención con dureza, para así romper en sus discípulos, los esquemas mentales y aspiraciones erróneas y
equivocadas que tienen de El. Finalmente; Jesús pone una condición fuerte a sus discípulos: "Quien quiera
seguirme, que renuncie a sí mismo, que cargue con su cruz todos los días y me siga"...Esta es la condición
para seguir a Jesús.
Jesucristo nos invita a cargar la cruz y a renunciar a nuestros caprichos, conveniencias e intereses
personales. Nos guste o no nos guste, ahí está nuestra liberación, nuestra conversión y santidad.
Pidámosle a la Virgen María, para que Ella, nos ayude a ser
dóciles a la acción de Dios, y que con nuestras palabras y
acciones, confesemos siempre que Jesús es el Mesías nuestro
Dios y Señor.
Dios los bendiga hoy y siempre.
Padre Orlando.

El Rito de Iniciación Cristiana de Adultos es un proceso de conversión y crecimiento espiritual, que toma
tiempo, en nuestra relación con Dios y la Iglesia.
Es un camino de fe donde los adultos están totalmente bienvenidos en la Iglesia Católica. Si usted está
interesado en la exploración de una relación con Jesucristo y se a preguntado acerca de la Iglesia Católica, o
convirtiéndose a la fe católica, la iniciación en la Iglesia Católica a través de la celebración de los sacramentos del
Bautismo, Confirmación y Eucaristía.
LE DAMOS UNA CORDIAL BIENVENIDA!

DESCUBRA EL PLAN QUE DIOS
TIENE PARA USTED
Una vocación es una llamada de Dios para que usted lo ame
durante toda su vida. Tanto si está llamado a casarse, a
hacerse sacerdote o diácono, religioso o religiosa, o
destinado a permanecer soltero, su vocación le proporcionará
la mayor alegría que pueda experimentar en la Tierra.
Le ayudará a usted y a los demás a acercarse a Dios. He aquí
algunas formas de discernir el plan que Dios tiene para usted.
Encuéntrese personalmente con él. Los sacramentos de la
Iglesia son ocasiones de encontrarse con Dios y recibir su
gracia. Podemos encontrarnos con él en el sacramento de
la Eucaristía y en el de la Reconciliación.
La Sagrada Escritura es otra ocasión de encuentro personal.
Cuanto más nos abramos a Nuestro Señor, más fácilmente
podremos discernir su voz. Siga los pasos de otro.
Busque modelos en las distintas vocaciones. Considere si
puede verse haciendo lo que esas personas hacen cada día.
Pídales detalles sobre la historia de su vocación para ver
cómo Dios los elige. Esto le dará pistas sobre cómo usted es
llamado.
Manténganse en contacto. Llevar un diario de oraciones
es una buena forma de identificar patrones que pueden
mostrar cómo obra Dios en su vida.
Elija un compañero de oración y recen por sus respectivas
vocaciones. Pasen tiempo frente al Santísimo Sacramento
siempre que puedan.
