Dear Parish Family:
Fr. Ricky asked me to write this letter for him.
So, what’s been happening in the parish since I last
wrote? Well, it’s Tuesday morning, 24 May, and I was
wondering how to make the letter interesting and
informative. I couldn’t think of any great theological
item and couldn’t think of anything funny, so I
remembered something from my school days (yes,
students, you will from time to time, remember what you
learned in school) and that’s your letter for this week.
I remembered that when I would have a difficult time
writing an essay, the teacher would tell me to get a
pencil and paper and start writing – anything – just
write! So, because I’m not using pencil and paper, and
am at the computer keyboard, I’ll ‘let’er rip’ and see
what happens.
Last night I attended the Parish Corporate Board
meeting. I just had the thought that maybe, and that’s a
big maybe, you would like to know what business was
discussed, so here it is. The board:
• A) Approved the parish operating and capital
budgets for fiscal year 2016 -2017.
• B) Approved the school operating and capital
budgets for fiscal year 2016 – 2017.
• C) Authorized the pastor to sign teacher contracts
for the new school year.
• D)) Authorized the pastor to spend corporate funds
for all approved budget items.
• E) Authorized the pastor to enter into the contract
with Watson Refrigeration Company for the
installation of the air conditioning in the school and
make payments according to the contract.
So, how is that from a blank mind?
As you read this, it will be 29 May, the Solemnity of The
Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ (Corpus Christi).
School is on summer break and the preparation for the
installation of the school air conditioning began on
Friday afternoon, immediately after the students left.
We are now in the Church’s season of Ordinary Time
that lasts until the first Sunday of Advent on 27
November 2016. Beginning next Sunday we will be
wearing green vestments at Mass.
This has now reached the second page on my screen,
and, like my homilies, I want to keep it short. That
reminds me (Don’t you love it when I get a ‘that reminds
me’) of a quasi-prayer I once learned about giving
homilies, “Dear Lord, let me say such wonderful stuff,
and poke me when I’ve said enough”. I think I just got
poked!
I wish you a safe, faith filled week!

Querida Familia Parroquial:
El Padre Ricky me ha pedido que escribe esta carta.
Bueno, que ha sucedido en la parroquia desde la última
vez que yo escribí? Bien, es martes en la mañana, 24
de mayo y estaba preguntándome como hacer la carta
interesante e informativa. No pude pensar en ningún
gran articulo teológico o en algo divertido, así que
recordando algo de mis días de escuela (si,
estudiantes, de vez en cuando ustedes recordaran lo
que aprendieron en la escuela) y esa es su carta para
esta semana.
Recuerdo que cuando tenía dificultad para escribir una
composición, la maestra me decía ¡consigue lápiz y
papel y empieza a escribir – cualquier cosa- pero
escribe! Por lo tanto, debido a que no estoy usando
lápiz ni papel, y estoy en el teclado de la
computadora, “dejo mis dedos libres” y a ver que
pasa.
Ayer por la noche asistí a la sesión del Consejo
Parroquial. Tuve la idea de que tal vez, y ese es un
gran quizás, les gustaría sabe que negocio se discutió,
así que aquí está. El Consejo:
• A) Aprobó los presupuestos de operaciones y
capital para el año fiscal 2016-2017
• B) Aprobó los presupuestos de operaciones y
capital para el año fiscal 2016-2017.
• C) Autorizó al párroco para que firme los contratos
con los maestros para el nuevo año escolar.
• D) Autorizó al párroco a usar los fondos
corporativos para todo lo aprobado en el
presupuesto.
• E) Autorizó al párroco a firmar el contrato con
Watson Refrigeration Company para la instalación
del aire acondicionado en la escuela y hacer los
pagos de acuerdo al contrato.
Entonces, ¿qué les pareció esto para una mente en
blanco?
Para cuando ustedes lean esto será el 29 de mayo,
Solemnidad del Sagrado cuerpo y Sangre de Cristo
(Corpus Christi). La escuela esta en vacaciones de
verano y la preparación para la instalación del aire
acondicionado empezó el viernes en la tarde
inmediatamente después de que los estudiantes
salieron.
Ahora estamos en el Tiempo Ordinario de la Iglesia que
durará hasta el Primer Domingo de Adviento, 27 de
noviembre del 2016. Empezando el próximo domingo
estaremos usando vestimentas color verde en la misa.
Con esto he llegado a la segunda página en mi
pantalla , y al igual que mis homilías, quiero que sea
breve. Esto me recuerda (¿no te encanta cuando me
sale un “eso me recuerda”?) de un cuasi-oración que,
alguna
vez
aprendí
acerca
de
dar
homilías. “Señor déjame decir cosas maravillosas y
pellízcame cuando haya dicho suficiente” Creo que he
sido pellizcado.
¡Les deseo una semana llena de fe y fuera de peligros!

During the First World War, prior to the advent of
the USO, the Knights ran hospitality centers for
troops at home and in Europe, from England and
France to Germany and Siberia. Since then, the
Knights have continued to assist America’s men
and women in uniform and veterans through a
variety of programs designed to support their faith
and other needs.
Our first Friday fish dinner this coming Friday June
3 in Healy Hall will be our last public meal until
September. Over the Summer, we will deep clean
the kitchen and discuss whether to keep doing fish
dinners. Also, our last Scripture Rosary with the
Catholic
Daughters
in May
is
this
weekend, Sunday, May 29 at 3 p.m. in the parish
chapel. All are invited to both events. Many thanks
for all who have supported our efforts.
If you are a Catholic man interested in becoming a
Knight, please contact our council at 520-303-4791

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
Once the early Christians realized that
Christ’s coming in glory was delayed, there was a
need to provide for the governance and everyday
needs of the church. The various “orders” within the
church carried forward the apostles’ ministry, but
also allowed for a measure of creativity. The sacrament we call “holy orders” evolved somewhat slowly.
At first, it made sense for Christians to use the forms
they knew, adapting them to new situations. Synagogues, for example, were administered by a board
of “elders,” translated into Greek as presbyteros. We
know from the Acts of the Apostles that a system of
presbyters was a normal feature of church life from
earliest days. They stood in relationship to another
order, that of “overseers,” translated into Greek as
episkopos, giving us the English “bishops.” The
bishop was the shepherd, the faithful tender of the
flock, one who offered the Eucharist, forgave sins,
and maintained the bond of charity. Just as the deacons were the chief advisers for the charitable life of
the church, so were the presbyters meant to advise
the bishop on the spiritual life of the faithful. They
were trusted advisers at first, not pastors or priests
as we understand those terms today.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE
Este domingo la Iglesia celebra la Solemnidad de la Santísima Trinidad: Padre, Hijo y Espíritu
Santo. Este dogma acerca de la realidad de Dios es
la clave para comprender la verdad de la religión
cristiana. Mediante el poder del Espíritu Santo el
Padre envió al Hijo como Salvador del mundo. Estas
tres personas son un solo Dios.
No es una doctrina fácil de comprender y
mucho menos de pintar en arte sagrado. Sin embargo muchos artistas latinoamericanos han intentado
pintar simbólicamente la verdad de la Santísima Trinidad. En muchos casos imaginan al Padre cargando a Jesús en la cruz y soplando sobre él el Espíritu
en forma de paloma. A veces Padre e Hijo están
entronados sobre las nubes soplando el Espíritu
mutuamente y las alas de la paloma tocan los labios
de ambos. En algunos casos el Padre, el Hijo y el
Espíritu Santo son tres cabezas que salen de un
solo cuerpo. Seguido los tres tienen el mismo rostro
distinguiéndose solo por el color de sus vestiduras o
los símbolos que cargan.
