Flocknote: text Allsouls to 84576 Twitter @AllSoulsSanford All Souls Catholic Church 2 November 15, 2015 An important message from Fr. Medina... Un mensaje del Padre Medina October 28, 2015 My Dear Parishioners, As All Souls Catholic Church continues to grow in spirit and in relationship with each other and with Jesus Christ; we also continue to strive to be a more welcoming faith community which offers a beautiful worship experience for everyone – especially on Sundays. Beginning the weekend of the First Sunday of Advent (November 28th and 29th) our new Mass times will be as follows: Church: Chapel Saturday Vigil Mass 5:00pm Sunday 8:00am Sunday 9:30am, 11am, 12:30 (Spanish) Latin Mass Sunday 2:00pm The changes in our Mass times are made to enable Father Ed McCarthy, Father Ken Metz and myself to better serve the needs of the entire community and ensure we are seen in rotation at all of our weekend Masses at both the Historic Chapel and the Church. Our Christmas Mass schedule and Holy Day Mass times will remain the same. For those of you who may be concerned about reserved Sunday Mass intentions for the remainder of 2015 and in 2016 at our former Mass times, be assured your intentions will be remain on our Mass calendar and will be moved as follows: 8:30am (Spanish) intentions will be moved to the 12:30 (Spanish) 10:00am Mass intentions will be moved to the 9:30am Mass. 11:30am Mass intentions will be moved to the 11:00am Mass. I acknowledge that change can be a challenge for some, but I am confident that the end result will be one of spiritual growth and renewal that will bear much fruit! I thank you in advance for your understanding. I hope and pray that these changes help all of us grow stronger as a community of faithful believers in Jesus Christ.

El horario de las Misas Navideñas y días Santos permanecerán igual. Para todos ustedes que les concierne las intenciones de las misas de 2015 y 2016 estas permanecerán en nuestro calendario de Misas y se reubicarán como sigue: Las intenciones de la misa dominical de 8:30 am en Espa ñol, serán reubicadas a la misa de 12:30 am Las intenciones de la misa dominical de 10:00am en Inglés, serán reubicadas a la misa de 9:30 am Las intenciones de la misa dominical de 11:30am en Inglés, serán reubicadas a la misa de 11:00am Reconozco que los cambios pueden ser un reto para algunos, pero tengo la confianza que al final el resultado será un crecimiento espiritual y renovador que va dar mucho fruto! Yo les doy las gracias de antemano por toda su comprensión. Espero y rezo que estos cambios nos ayuden a crecer más fuerte como comunidad de fieles creyentes en Jesucristo. En su servicio, Father Gilbert Medina, Pastor octubre 28,2015 Padre Gilbert Medina, Pastor "But of that day or hour, no one knows, neither the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father." It may strike us as odd that there are things that the angels don't know. But it's even more surprising that Jesus--the Son of God--would have been unaware of the divine schedule for the end of the world. Given all of this, should it come as any surprise that there are things that God chooses not to reveal to us right now? In his wisdom, God knows when the timing is right to reveal his plans to us. The fact that we don't know everything helps us remember that we are not God. We are his creatures, dependent upon him for our existence, our sustenance, and for the hour of our death too. In this era of instant Internet information, advanced diagnostic medical tests, and statistical surveys predicting future trends, it's hard to accept the fact that there are some things we just can't know. But this reality should keep us humble, reminding us that we don't have to know everything because we are in the powerful hands of a loving God. Thus, any attempt to "see the future" through psychic mediums like palm reading, tarot cards, or astrology suggests a kind of distrust in God. As the catechism states, such practices "contradict the honor, respect, and loving fear that we owe to God alone" (§2116). As much as we might want to know when the world will end, when our dreams will come true, or when our problems will cease, we are called to walk in faith, accepting what God chooses to reveal and trusting that even our moments of uncertainty are part of his benevolent plan for us. As today's psalm declares, "you will show me the path to life." What else do we really need to know? LPI, Inc.

Este domingo es según Marcos. El género apocalíptico nos sorprende y muchas veces nos asusta, pues inmediatamente pensamos en el fin del mundo que tantos han predicho pero fallado, ya que este fin solo Dios lo sabe: "Nadie conoce el día ni la hora. Ni los ángeles del cielo ni el Hijo; solamente el Padre" (Mc 13, 32). Lo referente a las imágenes del sol, la luna y las estrellas nos llevan al anuncio del misterio de Jesucristo, quien le da un verdadero sentido a vivir con esperanza en el presente y el futuro. ¿Cuál es tu opinión sobre esto? ¿Qué piensas acerca de estas lecturas? Es recomendable dialogar sobre estas lecturas en familia y grupos parroquiales para así ayudar a clarificar tantas dudas y miedos sobre la destrucción del mundo. Jesús nos indica que nada es absoluto, ni siquiera la propia vida. Lo único cierto es que todos algún día, tarde o temprano, estaremos frente a lo que sí es absoluto y verdadero: Dios. ¿Qué esperamos los cristianos de hoy? ¿Cómo vemos a nuestra comunidad? ¿Cuál es nuestra esperanza? Ojalá que todos estemos de acuerdo en el retorno glorioso de Cristo. Bien sabemos que no somos perfectos, pero tratamos de serlo: es por eso que acudimos cada domingo a la Eucaristía. Las lecturas nos indican que vamos caminando hacia el final de nuestra vida. Pidamos al Señor por la conversión de todo LPI, Inc.
