October 12, 2014 NOTICIAS PARROQUIALES Queridos Feligreses y Amigos; El próximo fin de semana nuestro "Parish Council" conducirá una feria para voluntarios. Ha pensado usted alguna vez en participar en uno de nuestros ministerios? Ser voluntario es una gran forma de servir a la Comunidad, una oportunidad de conocer otros feligreses muy interesante así como dedicados, y al mismo tiempo una manera de ayudar a nuestra parroquia. Si ha estado considerando un ministerio, nos reuniremos el próximo domingo después de las Misas en frente de la iglesia. El domingo pasado comenzó en Roma el Sínodo Extraordinario Sobre la Familia. En este Sínodo se discutirán temas tan difíciles como el control de la natalidad, el divorcio, segundos matrimonios, etc. El Papa Francisco comenzó su homilía en la Misa del Sínodo citando al Apóstol Mateo: "imponiendo cargas intolerables sobre las personas". Michael Sean Winters, reportero del "National Catholic Reporter" escribió un articulo muy interesante sobre el Sínodo. Lo pueden leer en: http://ncronline.org/blogs/distinctly-catholic/synod/opens. El martes 21 de octubre a las 6:00 pm el "Curran Center for American Catholic Studies" presentara una conferencia en la cual Sidney Callahan hablara sobre: "La Mujer y el Cristianismo: Preguntas Inquietantes y Sin Resolver". A medida que las mujeres en la Fe Católica reconsideran quienes son en términos de su cuerpo y genero, el Profesor Callahan se apoya en las ciencias psicológicas para proveer recursos vitales para el dialogo. Esta conferencia tendrá lugar en el "Rose Hill Campus" de Fordham University. Para mas información pueden llamar al 718-817-0662. En la segunda Lectura de hoy el Apóstol Pablo dice:"Todo lo puedo unido a Aquel que me da fuerza". Philippians 4:13. Roguemos por la Paz. Fr. Duffell.. DIA MUNDIAL DE LAS MISIONES El próximo domingo el papa nos invita a celebrar las misiones. Nos pide desarrollar la vida misionera de la Iglesia. Ayuda a las misiones. Ora por ellas, trabaja por ellas. Con tu ayuda financiera 1,150 diócesis son socorridas UNCIÓN DE LOS ENFERMOS Él sábado, 18 de Octubre, tendremos el sacramento de la Unción de los Enfermos en la Misa de 12:10 p.m. Todo el que necesite el poder sanador de Dios en sus vidas están invitados a participar. COLECTA DE ALIMENTOS PARA FAMILIAS NECESITADAS La semana que viene se hará la recogida mensual de alimentos no perecederos para el programa de "Alimentos para Familias Necesitadas". La lista de las cosas que pueden traer se encuentra en la mesa situada detrás del último banco de la Iglesia.
