Funeral Interments
Almost 10 years ago we received a new Rite of Christian Funerals in
the Church. It has truly been a wonderful way of ministering to those
who are hurting at the time of the death of a loved one. It was from
this new rite that we (many parishes including our own) expanded and changed
how we approached the death of a member of the Community. One of
the changes that occurred was the ability of a layperson to preside over
the interment at the cemetery. This opened the doors for more people
to participate in the ministry to the bereaved.
As some of you know, we have a man in the parish that is in formation
to be ordained a Deacon. Bob Lydon has completed 2 years of a 4-year
program and will this weekend begin his 3rd year. Part of his formation
will be to preside at the interment of funerals in our parish. I
have spoken and worked with him and I am confident that he will do well
in this new ministry he will be taking on. Both Deacon Steven and
I will be supervising him and helping him in doing this. It is important
to be aware that we will be doing this in the parish. If you have
questions or concerns feel free to speak with either Deacon Steven or myself
about this.

to early prayer and staff meetings, it is not feasible for you to pray
with us on that day. Please remember that we lock the door once we
begin our prayer time.
Please Pray for those who are Sick

Bills! Work! The Kids! Caring for an Elderly Parent!
We spend so much of our time attending to the demands of our daily life
that often times it is difficult to find the time we need to focus on our
walk with Christ, and on our marriage. If we could just find a moment
to catch our breath, take a break, to reflect, to heal, and to renew, what
a difference it would make! Well, here is your opportunity.
Marriage Encounter provides you and your spouse a weekend of solitude,
reflection, and personal conversation with each other and with Christ.
Take a weekend to discuss the things you feel you need to talk about but
haven’t had the chance to say, or maybe you’re just not sure how to say
it. It is a weekend that can help you to better understand
where your spouse is at in their life.
Renew your love for each other, heal each other, comfort each other,
and feel the presence of Christ in your marriage. The weekend has
the potential to be a miraculous and healing experience for you both.
You will communicate in ways, and at a level, that you may never have before.
Learn communication techniques you can use the rest of your married life.
The next Marriage Encounter weekend will be held on September 21, 22,
and 23, in Albuquerque at the Madonna Center. Don’t be left out,
register early. Call our reservation couple, Rick and Janet Olmsted,
at (505) 255-4425 today!
Gentle Bulletin Messages…
…on Parish Responsibilities
Jesus says in today’s gospel reading that none of us can become His
disciples if we do not give up all our possessions. Jesus is not
asking for money --- He is saying that we must make a radical decision.
The Church has a responsibility to talk about money to remind us of the
practical implications this decision has on our daily lives. To pick
up our cross and follow Him…this is what stewardship is all about.
By Deacon Juan Barajas
Mensajes Sencillos Sobre…Nuestras
Responsabilidades Parroquiales…
Jesús nos dice en el evangelio de hoy que no podemos ser sus
discípulos si no dejamos todas nuestras posesiones. Jesús
no nos está pidiendo dinero. El nos dice que debemos hacer
una decisión radical. La Iglesia tiene la responsabilidad
de hablar de dinero para recordarnos de las implicaciones prácticas
que esta decisión tiene en nuestras vidas diarias. Tomar nuestra
cruz y seguirlo…éso es la mayordomía.
