“The Lord bless you and keep you!
The Lord let his face shine upon you, and be gracious to you!
The Lord look upon you kindly and give you peace!
Num. 6: 24 - 26
Dear Brothers and sisters:
On these days in which we remember the birth of our Savior, with gratitude I send my best wishes hoping that our gracious God blesses you and your family.
In these 8 years I have shared with you the mystery of our faith; I want to thank you with all my heart, for all your
great effort and dedication with your valuable participation in all of our activities. I have no doubt that our Parish Community, year after year is enriched by the gifts each one of you contributes to the service of our God. Through this actions
we enrich our faith daily. As St. Paul says “And this is my prayer: that your love may increase ever more and more in
knowledge and every kind of perception” (Phil 1:9)
I would also like to take this valuable opportunity to encourage the community to live generously, so as to follow
the example of the scriptures in the Gospel of St. Luke we find a valuable testimony of the woman who shared everything
she had with the Church “When he looked up he saw some wealthy people putting their offerings into the treasury and he
noticed a poor widow putting in two small coins. He said, “I tell you truly, this poor widow put in more than all the rest; for
those others have all made offerings from their surplus wealth, but she, from her poverty, has offered her whole livelihood.” (Cfr. Lk. 21:1-4) “In contrast, the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness.
”(Gal. 5:22) It has been a part of our Church since ancient times, it is because of them that I ask you one more time to be
aware before our God, of the financial needs of our community of the Church of St. Joseph. It would be a good gesture
of Christian Commitment and an even greater sacrifice in our generosity, remembering that God multiplies what you give
with joy by a hundred.
Please do not forget that the Holy Father has called us to live fully this Merciful Year of Jubilee. For this reason I
ask you all to live a closer life to the love of God.
Keeping you all in my prayers, I conclude by wishing you all a happy 2016.
With fraternal love,
Rev. Luis Gutierrez

»“El Señor te bendiga y te guarde;
el Señor te mire con agrado y te extienda su amor;
el Señor te muestre su favor y la paz”
Núm. 6: 24
Apreciables hermanos:
En estas fechas en las que recordamos el nacimiento de Nuestro Salvador, con agrado les envió mis felicitaciones esperando que nuestro buen Dios, los colme de bendiciones a ustedes y a sus familias.
En estos ya 8 años de compartir con ustedes el misterio de nuestra fe, quiero agradecerles de todo corazón, su
valiosa participación en todas las actividades que con el gran esfuerzo y dedicación de todos ustedes hemos tenido a
bien realizar. No tengo la menor duda de que nuestra comunidad parroquial año con año se enriquece con los dones que
cada uno de ustedes pone al servicio de Nuestro Dios, por lo tanto nos vamos enriqueciendo día a día. Es por eso que a
imitación de San Pablo, pido “que el amor de Dios crezca en ustedes” (Fil 1:19)
También quiero aprovechar esta valiosa oportunidad para exhortar a toda la comunidad a vivir con generosidad de acuerdo al ejemplo de las Escrituras. En el Evangelio de San Lucas, encontramos un valioso testimonio de aquella
mujer que compartió todo lo que tenía con la Iglesia “… una viuda muy pobre que echaba dos moneditas. Ella no teniendo
recursos, ha echado todo lo que tenía para vivir.” Cfr. Lc. 21:1-4 La generosidad como fruto del Espíritu Santo (Gal 5:22)
forma parte de nuestra Iglesia desde tiempos antiguos, es por ellos que los invito una vez más a tomar conciencia delante
de Nuestro Dios, de la gran necesidad material que tiene nuestra comunidad eclesial de San José. Sería un buen gesto de
compromiso cristiano, un mayor sacrificio en nuestra generosidad, teniendo presente que Dios multiplica al ciento por uno
lo que se da con alegría.
No olvidemos también que el Santo Padre nos ha llamado a vivir en plenitud este año jubilar de la misericordia.
Por tal motivo les hago un llamado a vivir más de cerca el amor misericordioso de Dios.
Sin más por el momento me despido deseándoles a todos un feliz año 2016 poniéndolos a todos en mis oraciones.
Con fraternal afecto,
Rev. Luis Gutiérrez
