Servent’s Song...Sometimes the hour and the
Cántico del Siervo... A veces la persona y la hora
person meet. Sometimes, when a task or mission is
set upon our shoulders, we know we must meet
our responsibilities and we are ready. These are
heady and invigorating times. The first reading and
the Gospel proclamation today are intimate glimpses of a commencement of a challenging future in
which a sense of gravity prevails.
The first reading is from the mysterious
Servant Songs from the book of Isaiah. The person
is steadfast and brave. His courage and bravery
are not located in his stout heart, but in God. We
are reminded, “The Lord God opens my ear that I
may hear” (Isaiah 50:4), so the servant understands the mission. And twice, “The Lord God is
my help” (50:7, 9), so that the servant can endure
the coming struggle. Let us pray that we come to
know who Jesus is and how he is calling us to enter into his ministry to bring life to our world and
to understand what we need to die to, so that
God’s reign might become more present in our
world. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

se encuentran. A veces, cuando han puesto en
nuestros brazos una tarea o misión, sabemos que
debemos cumplir esa responsabilidad, y estamos
listos. Esos son momentos de gran entusiasmo y
energía. La primera lectura y la proclamación del
Evangelio de hoy nos permiten vislumbrar
íntimamente el comienzo de un futuro desafiante.
Las dos lecturas mantienen un sentido de seriedad.
La primera lectura viene del misterioso Cántico
del Siervo del libro de Isaías. La persona es firme y
valiente. Su valentía y fortaleza no se fundan en su
corazón sino en Dios. Se nos recuerda: “El Señor
Dios me ha hecho oír sus palabras” (Isaías 50:4),
para que el siervo comprenda la misión. Y dos
veces: “El Señor es mi ayuda” (50:7, 9), para que el
siervo pueda sobrellevar el sufrimiento que se
avecina. Oremos para llegar a saber quién es Jesús
y cómo nos está llamando a participar en su
ministerio de llevarle vida a nuestro mundo y para
comprender mejor a qué debemos morir a fin de que
el reino de Dios s haga mas presente en nuestro
mundo. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

Junipero Serra Canonization
Pope Francis will canonize Blessed
Junipero Serra on September 23, 2015
at the Basilica of the National Shrine
of the Immaculate Conception in
Washington D.C.
Father Serra was an 18th century Franciscan friar
who left a very comfortable life in Spain to come to
the New World and share his love the Gospel. He
was so dedicated that he walked thousands of miles
across what is now California and Mexico to spread
the faith, establishing nine missions along the way.
Junipero Serra is the patron of Serra International
and since 1935 been our founding priest. Serrans
come from all walks of life, but are united by a
common mission: to promote, encourage and affirm
vocations to the ministerial priesthood and
consecrated religious life.
Gracious Father,
We thank you for the exemplary life, missionary
zeal and loving kindness of your servant, Father
Junipero Serra, who entrusted his ministry to the
Virgin of Guadalupe, and stood firm in the defense
of the native peoples. Following his example, may
we also look to Our Lady of Guadalupe, the Star of
the New Evangelization, as we proclaim the Gospel
in our own day. We ask you, Lord, to bless the
Church with abundant vocations to the priesthood
and consecrated life, inspiring many to follow
Father Serra as humble laborers in your vineyard.
Through this intercession, grant that we may see the
face of your Son, Jesus, in all those we meet,
especially the poor, the marginalized and those who
suffer. Amen.

Stewardship Reflections ~ 23rd Sunday
in Ordinary Time: September 6, 2015
Whoever wishes to come after me must deny
himself, take up his cross, and follow me.” (Mark 8:34)
When we truly believe that all we have is a gift from
God, then we must be willing to give up some things
so that we can share our blessings as God
intended. Living a stewardship lifestyle means not
only being responsible for our own life, but the lives
of others as well.
Reflexiones de Mayordomía ~ 23º
Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario, 6 de
septiembre del 2015: Si alguno quiere
venir en pos de mí, niéguese a sí mismo, y tome su cruz,
y sígame.” (Marcos 8:34) Cuando realmente creemos
que todo lo que tenemos es un regalo de Dios,
entonces debemos estar dispuestos a renunciar a
algunos bienes para que podamos compartir
nuestras bendiciones tal como lo destino Dios.
Viviendo una vida de servidumbre significa no solo
ser responsable de la propia vida, sino la de los demás
también.

9th Annual 2015
March of the Surviving Youth
Saturday, October 10th
Catholic Charismatic Center
The event starts at 8:30 with Mass celebrated by
Bishop Sheltz. Followed by a pro-life youth rally
with Matt Regitz, Dunn Estacio and Dave
Regitz and musicians from ADORE ministries.
Light breakfast will be provided by Knights of
Columbus council 3910. Then a Jericho March to
Planned Parenthood.
The message of this year's march “Born to Love”
reflects that of the 2015 March for Life, Archdiocesan Youth Conference, and the World Meeting of
Families. The theme was inspired by the fact that, at
birth, we are given a mission to love, this mission
unites us, making us one, a family. It is when we are
living this mission that we are fully alive. This
mission of love makes life a gift of which all from
conception till death can share in," and how "all
those who have been born have a sacred duty to
show love to the weakest, including the unborn and
unwanted."
Free t-shirts to the first 350 people!
Join hundreds of youth from all over Houston for
a day of courage, inspiration and fun!
