BOLETIN HISPANO
Gracias a todas las personas que ayudaron para que el Festival de
nuestra Parroquia fuera un éxito, también a todos los feligreses
que asistieron y participaron durante todo el día, a los que donaron su tiempo, talento y dinero.
Estamos acercándonos a la Pascua, por favor participe en el programa "adopte a una familia" y puede tomar una tarjeta del árbol
a la entrada de la Iglesia, o puede donar algunos comestibles para
que las familias necesitadas tengan una buena cena de Pascua,
Dios bendiga su generosidad.
Participe de la estación de la cruz todos los viernes a las 12.00
del dia durante la Cuaresma.
Oración a San José : "Salve a ti, celoso defensor de Cristo, virginal
custodio del hogar divino, vida, paz, dulzura y esperanza nuestra,
faro de virtudes, norma de paciencia. Con filial confianza
nosotros, los desterrados pobres hijo de Eva, siempre a ti llamamos, y hacía ti exhalamos en el triste valle fervorosos suspiros,
dolorosos quebrantos. Oh José benigno, vuelve a nosotros esos
dulces ojos misericordiosos y, cuando el destierro haya terminado,muéstranos al niño que te fue confiado. Patriarca santo,
protector clemente, ruega por nosotros en vida y muerte, para
hacernos dignos de la gran promesa reluciente y divina de la
gloria eterna. Amén " San Juan Bosco.

ADOPT A FAMILY FOR EASTER
In Loving Memory of Betty Dadio
Help us help the less fortunate and bring a smile to a family at Easter.
St. Matthew Outreach asks for your help in providing Easter baskets for the children of less
fortunate families in our community and to donate items to provide Easter dinners for these families.
Pick a child’s name from the ‘Bunny Tree’ and purchase an Easter basket for that child. Drop off the basket at
the Parish Office Mon - Fri from 9AM - 2PM before March 20th. Outreach is also in need of canned veggies,
mac and cheese, snack pack or boxed pudding, jelly, applesauce (plastic bottle if possible), canned soups, boxed
mashed potatoes, brown gravy, canned pineapple, boxed stuffing, brown paper grocery bags. These can be brought
to the Parish Office during the week or put in the back of Church before Mass on the weekend. These items will
help fill the complete Easter dinners for these families to enjoy. On behalf of the families in need, God bless you
and thank you for your kindness.

STEWARDSHIP: “Sharing God’s Gifts”
As Catholics, we give in gratitude for what God has
given to us; this is what motivates us. We give because of faithfulness. The offertory collection for Sunday, March 8, 2015 was
$10,489.00 with 156 envelopes used. God bless you for your
generosity and support of your St. Matthew Parish! In using your
offertory envelopes each week, please make sure your envelope
number is listed on it. Also, please make sure we have your correct address to avoid unnecessary additional fees for returned
mail from the post office. If you do not know your envelope number, please call the Parish Office and we will gladly give it to you. If
you are currently receiving offertory envelopes in the mail and are
not using them each week, please call the Parish Office to advise.
2015 Archbishop’s Charity and Development Drive
‘One in Faith, One in Hope, One in Charity’
There is still time to make a return to the Lord for all He has given us if
you have not made your pledge. Even a
small gift can make a big difference in
the lives of those in need. Whether your
gift is $50, $365, $1,000 or even $5,000,
it is truly impactful and appreciated.
If you have not yet responded to
the 2015 ABCD, please consider making a gift - a gift from
the heart - by using the pledge envelopes available in the
pews and at the church entrances.
Thank you for all that you do and the spirit in which
you do it! God bless you!
