Parish Mission St. Andrew Parish recognizes that, as Jesus Christ was sent by God to “bring the good news to the poor, to proclaim liberty to captives,and to the blind new sight, to set the downtrodden free, to proclaim the Lord’s year of favor,” (Luke 4:18) La Parroquia de San Andrés reconoce que, así como Jesús fue enviado por Dios “para traer la Buena Nueva a los pobres, para anunciar libertad a los cautivos, y a los ciegos nueva luz. Poner en libertad a los oprimidos y proclamar el año de gracia del Señor,”(San Lucas 4:18) ....so it is the mission of St. Andrew Parish to be a visible presence of Christ in our culturally and racially diverse neighborhood, rooted in the Gospel and nurtured by liturgy, prayer, and the community of faith. As such we commit ourselves to work with the poor, the powerless, and the oppressed for the liberation of all; to seek justice, compas- sion, and peace in our lives, community, and world; and to proclaim and celebrate God’s unconditional love for all. ....También es la misión de la Parroquia de San Andrés, el ser presencia visible de Cristo en nuestra comunidad con diversidad de razas y culturas, enraizada en el Evangelio y alimentada por la liturgia, la oración, y la comunidad de fe. Como iglesia, nos comprometemos a trabajar con los pobres, los desamparados y oprimidos, por la liberación de todos; para buscar justicia, compasión, paz en nuestras vidas, en la comunidad y en el mundo entero, y para proclamar y celebrar el amor incondicional de Dios para todos.

Please contact Tony Jones if you have any questions tonyjonz61@ gmail.com. “He is God, not of the dead, but of the living!” As brothers and sisters of the Lord Jesus, the first-born from the dead, we rest assured that death’s sting is a springboard to life with him. We who are left behind are unable to avoid pain, sadness and loss. Those who go before us are marked with the cross—the sign of our faith. There is no reason not to weep, but it is our sorrow and it is coupled with our hope in the resurrection path opened for us by our Messiah, Jesus himself. Alleluia!

A distinction is commonly drawn between a funeral Mass (with the body of the deceased present) and a memorial Mass (with no body present, although the cremains—cremated remains—of the deceased may be). Both are liturgies of the church and follow the usual liturgical protocols. If the cremains are present, the cremains may be sprinkled with holy water and incensed at the appropriate times, conferring the same respect normally given to the body of the deceased. However no pall is used. The cremains are usually placed on a table near the paschal candle in the location a casket would occupy during a funeral liturgy. In the case of a memorial Mass without cremains, a picture can be placed in front to give the focal point that the casket would normally provide. The rosary will be prayed every Sunday after the 9:30 mass in front of the Tabernacle for Sr. Nancy Bolton, sister of Licia Seaman. All are welcome.

Someone asked “Why should we continue to have Masses said for someone we believe is with God in heaven?” Masses and prayers can simply express our thanks and praise to God for the life of a person we have loved and still love. I know many people who firmly believe that their loved ones are in heaven and may even pray to them as saints of God, yet they still have Masses said for them. Obviously, these Masses are expressions of their faith and hope, a part of their remembering. Sound Catholic theology speaks of the Communion of Saints: our prayers for those who have gone before us is a concrete expression of that mystery of faith. 30th Annual Fix-It Fair Season Is Here Nov19, Ron Russell Middle School., 3955 SE 112th Ave Jan 28, George Middle School, 10000 N Burr Ave Febr25, Madison High School, 2735 NE 82nd Ave All three fairs are from 9:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Fix-It Fairs are free events where neighbors come together to learn simple and effective ways to save money and be healthy at home this winter.

Office 360-906-0441 5 St. Vincent de Paul/St. Andrew Emergency Services God of the Living This is the beauty of prayer and of Christian life: Coming to understand that a God Who converses with humans Has created them And has lifted them up, With the capacity of saying “I” and “you.” What would we give to have such power As to create a friend of our own taste And with a breath of our own life to make that friend able to understand us And be understood by us And converse intimately— To know our friend as truly another self ? That is what God has done; He has lifted us up So that he can talk with us and share his joys, His generosity, His grandeur. He is the God who converses with us. Archbishop Oscar Romero, The Violence of Love Oscar Romero (1917-1980) became archbishop of San Salvador in 1977. He gained renown as a prophetic voice of the poor and was ultimately martyred at the altar while saying Mass.
