William Palmer Fr. William E. Palmer: I was born September 21, 1960 in Cottage Grove, OR. I was the fourth child (and son) of Albert and Josephine Palmer. I have three older brothers: John, Bob, and Jim. I have two younger sisters: Patricia and Jeanne, and one younger brother: Joe. I started going to U of O football games at the age of 6 with my Mom and Dad and to the U of O track meets with my Dad. I loved sports and participated in youth baseball and backyard anything. I enjoyed fishing and camping and loving country life. I attended Cottage Grove High School and swam my junior and senior years. I coached swimming for 17 years: 5 as an assistant coach in Cottage Grove, 3 as Head Coach of Wenatchee (WA) Swim Team, 4 as Head Coach of Willamalane Swim Club (Springfield) and the final 5 as Head Coach of Tyler (TX) Swim Team. I started attending daily Mass in 1996 and in 1997 heard the call of God and started the interview process for the Diocese of Tyler (TX). I entered Sacred Heart School of Theology in Hales Corners, WI. in August, 1998 and was ordained for the Diocese of th Tyler on June 21, 2003 (my Dad’s 80 birthday). I was assigned as the Parochial Vicar at the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception in Tyler upon Ordination, as Priest in Charge of Our Lady Queen of Angels in Overton (TX) in May 2005, again to the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception in September 2006, and as Administrator (2009) and Pastor (2010) of Mary Queen of Heaven in Malakoff (TX) until January 2015. There seems to be a pattern and connection in my assignments: I am truly thankful and blessed that the Blessed Mother has strengthened me throughout my Priesthood. I am thankful and already blessed to be a part of St. Mary (of the Presentation). It is wonderful to be back home!

Thus, you may not receive an IP-PIN during this tax season, even though you had a background check performed in connection with service for the Archdiocese, a parish or school. The IRS will continue to issue IP-PINs on a rolling basis. If you have received an IPPIN, you must use it to file your taxes. If you have not received an IP-PIN, the IRS advises that the best way to protect yourself is to file your taxes early. The IRS apologizes for the delays and the confusion it has caused.

Página en Español, PÁGINA Febrero EN ESPA 1, 2015 Información en Español llame a la oficina Lunes, Martes y Viernes de 9:00 am 12:00 pm Fe Familiar Preguntas para Compartir 4 Características de la Iglesia Verdadera (Parte 5) A través de 2,000 años, la Iglesia Católica ha llevado a cabo la misión, predicando la buena nueva de que Cristo murió por todos los hombres y que él desea que todos seamos miembros de su familia universal (Gá 3:28). Hoy en día la Iglesia Católica se encuentra en todas partes del mundo y todavía envía misioneros a que “hagan discípulos a todas las gentes” (Mt 28:19). La Iglesia que Jesús estableció se conocía por su título más común, “Iglesia Católica” desde el principio, por lo menos desde el año 107, cuando Ignacio de Antioquía usó ese título para describir la única Iglesia que Jesús fundó. El título era ya antiguo en la época de Ignacio, lo cual significa que probablemente viene desde la época de los apóstoles. La Iglesia es Apostólica (Ef 2: 19-20, CIC 857-865) La Iglesia que Jesucristo fundó es apostólica porque él nombró a los apóstoles los primeros líderes de la Iglesia, y sus sucesores serían los futuros líderes. Los apóstoles fueron los primeros obispos y desde el primer siglo, ha habido una línea ininterrumpida de obispos católicos transmitiendo fielmente lo que los apóstoles les enseñaron a los primeros cristianos en la Escrituras y en la Tradición Oral (Tim 2:1-2). Apelación Católica del Arzobispo La próxima semana 7 y 8 de febrero, se hará la apelación de ayuda del Arzobispo. Si recibieron una carta en el correo pueden traerla con su contribución.

Un hombre atormentado por un mal espíritu estaba clamando cosas falsas sobre Jesús sabia cual era el problema con este hombre. Él le ordenó al espíritu malo que saliera del hombre, y con un grito, se salió. Todos estaban asombrados con este maestro con tanta autoridad. ¿Cuándo nos sentimos agobiados o atormentados? ¿Qué podemos hacer cuando estamos preocupados, tristes o atormentados? ¿Quién nos puede ayudar?
