LUMEN GENTIUM AWARD
The Lumen Gentium awards are given every other year by Bishop Joe Vásquez in recognition of service and faithfulness of Catholics throughout the Diocese of Austin. Recipients are
nominated by their pastor or diocesan staff. The awards ceremony, which was scheduled for
June 16, was canceled because of heavy rains. Therefore, pastors were asked to honor their
nominees at their respective parishes.
We congratulate parishioners Tom & Rosa Maria Peña who were awarded this year’s Lumen Gentium award. They have worked tirelessly for the building of His Kingdom at Santa
Cruz Church.
Tom has been the lead usher for a number of years. He is a ‘behind-the-scenes’ person. He
schedules and trains ushers. He makes sure the collection is secured and counted. He works hard
to make sure Holy Day Masses are covered. Most people never see him but they sure would
notice if all he does was not done. His sons have joined him in this ministry and we now have
a second generation of ushers coming up. He is a blessing to Santa Cruz.
Welcome! ~ ¡Bienvenidos! /
New Members to Santa Cruz!
We are so grateful for our New Parishioners. If you know them, please help us welcome them!

20th Sunday in Ordinary Time
What a privilege it is that
we have been invited to
the banquet of eternal life
and endless grace. Filled
with the very life of God
we can live as Paul recommends: people filled
with the Spirit, with gratitude and joy. We can be
people filled with wisdom rather than foolishness. But will people notice a difference during
the week? Will others be touched by a deep
sense of God’s life in us? What can we do this
week to be living bread for the poor and those
in greatest need since we have feasted at this
heavenly banquet?
Agosto 15-16 de 2015
20mo. Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario
Qué privilegio es que hayamos sido invitados
al banquete de la vida eterna y la gracia infinita. Llenos de la vida de Dios podemos vivir
como recomienda Pablo: como gente llena
del Espíritu, con gratitud y gozo. Podemos
ser personas llenas de sabiduría más que de
banalidad. Pero ¿notará la gente un cambio
durante la semana? ¿Serán otros tocados por
un sentido profundo de la vida de Dios en nosotros? ¿Qué podemos hacer esta semana para
ser pan vivo para los pobres y para aquellos
en gran necesidad ya que nosotros hemos
participado de este banquete celestial?

Reconciliation & First Communion Preparation - Traditionally children celebrate the Sacrament of Reconciliation (First Confession) and
First Communion in the second grade. For their preparation, children
attend Religious Education for two years (1st grade & 2nd grade).
The first year is traditionally 1st grade and the second, 2nd grade, is
continued preparation for the sacraments and the celebration. Older
children who have not celebrated the sacraments and need to prepare
participate in the RCIA for Children Program. Register for Religious
Education to get your child ready to celebrate the sacraments.
Reconciliación y Preparación de Primera Comunión - los niños
celebran tradicionalmente el Sacramento de la Reconciliación (Primera Confesión) y la Primera Comunión en el segundo grado. Para su

grado y 2do grado). El primer año tradicionalmente consiste de estudiantes del 1er grado y el segundo, del 2do grado. Es una preparación
continua para los sacramentos y la celebración. Niños mayores de edad

religiosa para prepararlos a celebrar estos sacramentos.

Confirmation - A minimum of two years, traditionally 8th grade
and 9th grade, of formal religious education in a parish precedes the
Confirmation Preparation Program at Santa Cruz. Students who attend
their 8th and 9th grade years will enter into the Confirmation Preparation
Program in their 10th grade year. If a student did not attend 8th grade, the
DRE / High School RE Coordinator will work with parents to place the
child in appropriate classes. These guidelines are in accordance with
the Diocese of Austin. Register for Religious Education to get your
child ready to celebrate the sacrament of Confirmation.
Confirmación - el programa de preparación para la Confirmación en
Santa Cruz se antecede con un mínimo de dos años, tradicionalmente

Los estudiantes que atienden los grados de 8vo y 9no entrarán en el
programa de Preparación para Confirmación, al tercer año, o en el
10mo grado. Si un estudiante no atendió el 8vo grado, el coordinador
de DRE/Secundaria trabajará con los padres para colocar al joven en
las clases apropiadas. Estas guías van de acuerdo con la Diócesis de
Austin. Inscriba a su niño(a) en educación religiosa para prepararlo(a)
a celebrar el Sacramento de Confirmación.

LOVE THEM BOTH
We must love them both—those whose opinions we
share and those whose opinions we reject. For both
have labored in the search for truth, and both have
helped us in the finding of it.
—Thomas Aquinas
August 15 & 16, 2015 / 15 y 16 de agosto, 2015
AMAR A AMBOS
Debemos amar a ambos –aquellos cuyas opiniones
compartimos y aquellos cuyas opiniones rechazamos.
Ambos han procurado buscar la verdad, y ambos nos
han ayudado a encontrarla.
—Santo Tomás de Aquino

News from the Principal’s Desk
Noticias del Escritorio de la Directora
Santa Cruz Catholic School teachers and staff spent a busy week preparing for our new school year. The week was filled with classroom
organizing, curriculum workshops and planning, safety courses, and a
writing and technology in-service.
We also welcomed a new kindergarten teacher to our school. Stacey Graham has joined our staff replacing Caitlin Brejcha who took a
position with Hays CISD. Stacey comes to us with nineteen years of
experience in the lower elementary grades. She is also a dyslexia teacher.
We are thrilled that she chose to join our expanding staff.
Students begin classes on Wednesday, August 12th. On Monday, all
of the Catholic schools in our diocese will come together at St. Helen’s
in Georgetown for a beginning of the year Mass and luncheon. Bishop
Vasquez and Bishop Garcia will be our celebrants. What a wonderful
way to begin the new year!
Have a blessed week,
Mrs. Flanagan

COME AND SEE!
Are you, or do you know anyone, who has not yet been baptized or was baptized in another
Christian faith? Ever wondered why Catholics bless themselves with the sign of the cross, what
they believe about communion, what’s up with all those saints and statues, and rosaries, and
standing, sitting, and kneeling, why does Mary seem so important? Well, why not come and see
and come and learn?
This year’s RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults) Program begins on Thursday, September 10. There is no cost, no obligation and no commitment necessary. In a series of friendly,
informative and spiritually exciting classes we will explore the major things Catholics believe
and why. We will learn more about the Mass and what is happening and why. Learn about prayer,
scripture, sacraments, and Church history, and much more.
Are you Catholic and interested in learning more about your faith? Would you be willing to
be part of this program, to be part of a faith community willing to journey with and support those
interested in learning more about our faith? Now may be the moment that God is calling you to
be part of an exciting ministry.
