PASTOR’S CORNER
Next Saturday, November 22nd at the 5pm Vigil Mass, we will
be celebrating the patronal feast of St. Cecilia. This will be a
special liturgy in honor of our patron saint who has unceasingly
interceded for our parish for the past 100 years. Immediately
following the Vigil Mass is a spaghetti dinner, where we will also
be staging a theatrical presentation of the life of St. Cecilia. The
casts have been practicing for months to give us a meaningful and
powerful exposition of the life of our patron saint. We are grateful
to the casts for their dedication and sacrifices to make this play a
reality. Our profoundest gratitude to Gene Climer, a long time
parishioner, who has wonderfully put together this play. Since we
are not able to accommodate everyone in our Activity Center,
please make sure that you get your tickets for the spaghetti dinner
after all the Masses this weekend. Tickets can also be purchased
in the parish office. This would be a wonderful time to come and
celebrate together who we are as a community of faith under the

On a different note, while we are in the process of filling in the
position of Pastoral Associate after Angela Paz’s move to the
Archdiocesan office, some of the responsibilities that were
originally handled by Angela are now distributed to several
volunteers and staff member. Betsy Willing, who is our current
Kindergarten and Pre-K coordinator, will temporarily handle the
adult faith programs. She will act as the liaison of the parish to the
various adult faith programs that we have—e.g., bible study
groups. She will be the contact person for questions regarding
scheduling and other matters that pertain to our adult faith
programs. Deacon David Hammes will handle all inquiries on the
sacrament of baptism, while Mike Flanigan together with the
whole RCIA team will continue what Angela has started in our
RCIA program. I am deeply grateful for their willingness to step
up to take these crucial and important pastoral responsibilities
while we are in the period of transition. May the good Lord who
has begun the work in us bring it to completion. – Fr. Cary
All are welcome to a Holy Hour to pray for the repose of the
souls of the faithful departed who are buried in our Catholic
Cemeteries. This one-hour prayer service includes the Holy
Rosary, Chaplet of Divine Mercy, and other prayers for the
dead. This is a wonderful opportunity to come together as a
community to pray for our loved ones in a supportive setting,
and is especially healing for those who have lost a
loved one very recently.
The service will be held in the chapel of
Gethsemani Catholic Cemetery on
Tuesday, November 18th at 11:00 AM.

Make Christmas Brighter: Donate a Turkey
Can you donate a turkey for a family in need?
This season, St. Vincent de Paul is providing 200 families with
Christmas dinner as well as gifts for the entire family. If you
could pick up an extra turkey on sale, it would be much
appreciated. The ideal turkey is around12-16 pounds and
frozen. Please bring your donation to the St. Vincent de Paul
office around the back of the Parish Center, Monday – Friday
between 9 and 11:30a.m or drop it off at the parish office.
Questions: call 503-643-1702.
To All Our Generous St. Cecilia Parishioners:
The love and compassion you have shown to St. Vincent de Paul
in the past year is beautiful. We could not do the amount of
work for those less fortunate than ourselves without all of you.
We are truly grateful!
During the fiscal year ended September 30th, we provided food
assistance to 2,506 families, totaling 8,157 people. We also
helped 178 families (740 people) with Christmas food boxes and
included gifts for the whole household. You provided this help
by taking tags from the Giving Garland. Every single one of you
who helped with funds or prayers or your time are part of our
St. Vincent de Paul ministry, TO HELP OTHERS. This
Christmas, our intentions are to increase from 178 families to
200. We give each household a Christmas dinner and gifts to
those 18 years and younger; those greater than 18 year of age are
given gift cards. This way everyone will have a happy
Christmas.
Also this year, we provide rent and/or utility assistance to
274 families, totaling $47,180.
Just last month, we started a backpack program for low income
students at Vose Elementary School. Each Wednesday, we fill
20 backpacks with food for the students to take home for the
weekend. The next weekend, we give to 20 more, so that a total
of 40 students receive backpacks every month. Many parishes in
the Archdiocese are partnering with low income schools. This
program is much needed and rewarding.
The major sources of financial support to accomplish all we do
comes from:
 The Lenten Collection
 Quarterly Envelopes in May, August and October
 The Thanksgiving Collection
We are so proud of you in your support of us. We thank you
from the bottom of our hearts for your generosity. We also
thank you for your prayers, that we can continue to do the work
of Christ in helping those less fortunate than ourselves.
God Bless You All!!! Sincerely, Kathy Johnson, President

A newsletter of the Social Concerns Ministry
of St. Cecilia Parish
It is Almost Giving Tree Time
Every year parishioners contribute
about 1,000 gifts to our neighbors
in need, making this event the
parish's biggest annual outreach
project.
Social Concerns Ministry and the
Society of St. Vincent DePaul work
together to get the requests for
giving. Parish volunteers write the
gift requests on tags that will be
hung on garlands in the church on
November 29. We encourage all
parishioners to choose a tag to
take home. The tags will tell you
the gift request as well as a little bit
about the person who made the
request. You take a tag, buy the
gift, and bring the wrapped gift
back to the Parish Center on
December 13 and 14.
The Social Concerns gift tags will
go to the following places where
the poor are served. You will
notice that each place will have a
distinctive colored tag.
Residents of The Good
Neighbor Center, a family
shelter located on Greenberg Rd.
near Washington Square. During a
six-week-stay, the center helps the
families develop a plan of self
sufficiency. Requests for these
families are given to parishioners
who like to give gifts for a whole
family
St. Mary's Home for Boys
opened as an orphanage in 1890.
Today it provides residential
treatment and educational care for
boys 10-to-18-years-old. The staff
provides a learning environment
focused on each boys needs. This
enables the boys to successfully
transition back to the community
and appropriate living environments.
The tags are white.
Avamere Rehabilitation Center
provides care for those who need
assistance with basic physical needs.
With the help of therapy, many of
the residents have a short stay,
while others are there indefinitely.
Each week, a Eucharistic minister
from St. Cecilia takes communion to
the Catholic residents. Their tags
are lavender.
The Macdonald Center in
Portland's Old Town enhances the
lives of the forgotten poor through
their outreach program. Our Giving
Tree gifts help support their mission
of compassion and service to those
in need. Look for yellow tags for
them.
The Macdonald Residence is an
Assisted Living program for
homeless people in Old Town.
They have rooms for 53 needy
persons and provide all of their
needs. We help them have
Christmas joy. The tags are green.
Rose Haven, a drop in day shelter
for women and children in NW
Portland ,offers a safe environment
and services to facilitate positive
changes in the lives of women and
children experiencing the trauma of
abuse and homelessness. The tags
are pink.
Christ the King in Shiprock, NM
is our parish partner. This is a very
poor parish on an Indian
Reservation. This year we will have
fifty tags that will request a $2
donation to support their parish
needs. Blue tags are for Shiprock.

St. Vincent de Paul brightens
Christmas for 200 families this year.
Struggling families who receive food
boxes from St. Vincent de Paul
throughout the year get a special
treat every Christmas.
This year, 200 families will get a
Christmas dinner with all the
trimmings and will also receive a gift
for every member of the family.
St. Vincent volunteers have been
working day and night this fall
taking individual orders from
recipient families asking their food
preferences and what gifts each
family member prefers. Here is
how you can get involved in this
wonderful project:
 Take a red tag from the Giving
Tree garland.
 Return the wrapped gift to the
Parish Center the weekend of
December 13-14.

It is vitally important to
return the gift and return
it on time!
 Help pack Christmas boxes on
Dec. 15, 16, or 17.
 Help deliver boxes on Dec. 20
To volunteer or find out more
about the Christmas box project,
call the St. Vincent de Paul office
Monday-Friday between9-11:30 AM
at 503-643-1702.
St. Vincent de Paul president Kathy
Johnson says the project succeeds
because of you —- “Our St. Cecilia
parishioners are the kindest people
in Beaverton. “ Social Concerns
President Colleen Seed concurs.
We love you and thank you from
the bottom of our hearts.

DOMINGO XXXIII DE TIEMPO ORDINARIO
16 DE NOVIEMBRE, 2014
¿ES DIOS COMO UN LADRÓN?
A través de Su Palabra que escuchamos (o leemos) en la
Sagrada Escritura, Dios nunca deja de romper nuestros
esquemas y las categorías en que a veces tratamos de
encuadrarlo.
Como un ejemplo, en la segunda lectura de la Misa de hoy,
San Pablo nos habla bajo inspiración del Espíritu Santo. Lo
que dice es que Dios es como un ladrón que llega de noche.
Dios, ¿Es como un ladrón? ¿Cómo es posible que San Pablo
esté diciendo tal cosa?,
El punto es que nos llama mucho la atención. Nos obliga a
reflexionar para ver qué puede significar tal pensamiento. Nos
motiva a entrar más en profundidad a la Biblia para entenderla
mejor y o quedarnos en la superficie.
Lo que vemos es que en esta lectura, que la Iglesia nos ofrece
al acercarse el fin de año, nos encontramos en tiempos de
escatología, o sea, cuando se nos invita a considerar la Segunda
Venida de Cristo, cuando ya está a mano el juicio final y la
culminación de la historia.
Y es precisamente en ese contexto que logramos ver que San
Pablo nos advierte que debemos estar conscientes de que Dios se
hace presente en nuestras vidas en los momentos más
inesperados: o sea, cae de sorpresa.
El Mensaje: estemos listos y alertas, siempre. No sabemos
cuándo y de qué manera Dios se nos hará presente. No sea que
nos encuentre espiritualmente dormidos, y, como consecuencia,
desperdiciemos ese encuentro importante y decisivo que el
Señor desea tener con nosotros.

MENSAJE MARIANO
“¡Queridos hijos! También hoy los invito: oren, oren, oren.
Hijitos, cuando oran, están cerca de Dios y El les da el deseo
de eternidad. Este es un tiempo en que pueden hablar más
de Dios y hacer más por Dios. Por eso, no se resistan, sino
permitan, Hijitos, que El les guíe, cambie, y entre en su vida.
No olviden que son viajeros en camino hacia la eternidad.
Por eso, hijitos, permitan que Dios los conduzca como un
pastor a su rebaño. !Gracias por haber respondido a mi
llamado!” 25 de noviembre, 2006.

Love Thy Neighbor!
The Knights of Columbus at St. Cecilia have
organized a "Catholic Build" for Westside Parishes
and are making a difference—now it’s your turn to
join in! We are building a home for the Leon family
here in Beaverton. This hard working family earned
their US citizenship and Fermin, the father, works
hard to support his wife and four children. Currently,
their small apartment is poorly vented and has roof
repair needs. This is where we come in with money
and time. As little as $50 will build a portion of this
home, and we have divided the home on a grid to see
where we are in funding.
Come out to the job site on November 22nd for the blessing and installation of the
signed wall into the Leon’s new home. The Knights will be BBQing a free lunch as
well! This is our neighborhood and these are our neighbors —
come and BE the difference you want to see in the world!
