AN EASY WAY TO SUPPORT YOUR PARISH
Did you know that the Parish Office has the ability to
accept your weekly/monthly offertory thru a credit card
payment?
Did you know you can send direct payments from your
bank?
Please know that your credit card information, would be
kept in a vault, and your account would be charged on the
date, you specify.
What is nice and convenient about both methods is that
you do not have to think about envelopes or having money
in your wallet or purse.
This would also be a great help to your parish in
leveling out the income for the month.
If you have questions you can contact your bank or speak
to Mary Ann (Ext 108) or Diane (Ext 107)
in the Parish Office.

JOKE OF THE WEEK
A brunette, a blonde, and a
red head died and are on their
way to heaven. There was a
stairway of 100 stairs. Upon
each step was a joke. If the
women laughed, the devil
would pull them down.
The brunette got to 59, the
red head to 75, & the blonde
made it to 100.
Just as God welcomed her
to heaven, she burst out in
laughter and said:
“Ohh! That first question; ...I
totally get it!”
ENTRADA
Que alegría cuando me dijeron, vamos a la casa del Señor ya están pisando nuestros pies, tus umbrales Jerusalén.
Jerusalén está fundada como ciudad bien compacta allá suben las tribus, las tribus del Señor.
Según la costumbre de Israel, a celebrar el nombre del Señor en ella están los tribunales de justicia, en el palacio de David.
Desead la paz a Jerusalén, vivan seguros los que te aman haya paz dentro de tus muros, en tus palacios seguridad.
Por mis hermanos y compañeros voy a decir la paz contigo, por la casa del Señor nuestro Dios te deseo todo bien.
SALMO
Que se me pegue la lengua al paladar si no me acuerdo de ti..
OFERTORIO
Misericordia Señor por tu bondad, misericordia (2)
Piedad de mi Señor, por tu bondad, por tu inmensa ternura, borra mis pecados;
lávame de todos mis delitos y de mis culpas purifícame.
Crea en mi corazón nuevo, un espíritu nuevo pon dentro de mi;
no me rechaces lejos de tu rostro y no retires de mi tu santo espíritu.
Devuélveme la alegría de tu amor y devuélveme el gozo de ser un hombre bueno.
Enseñaré a todos tus caminos, los pecadores volverán a ti.
COMUNIÓN
Eres tú, Jesús, eres tú. Eres tú en un trozo de pan y en un poco de vino.
Que alegría encontrarte, Jesús, en tu vino y tu pan. Oh Señor, que consuelo saber que me amas.
Eres tú la palabra de Dios, la eterna palabra de Dios y has querido venir a morar en mi pecho.
Eres tú, oh, principio y fin, manantial de la vida. Eres tú, luz de luz, Dios de Dios verdadero.
Eres tú, oh, milagro de amor. Oh, eterno milagro de amor.
Eres tu mi Señor y mi Dios, mi alimento.
Cuanto amor al nacer en Belén de Maria la virgen. Al andar los caminos del hombre y llamarle tu amigo.
Oh, cordero de Dios, cuanto amor, cuanto amor al morir en la cruz. Cuanto amor al querer compartir tu victoria.
Solo en ti, oh, Señor del amor que comprende y perdona, solo en ti, oh, Jesús, hay amor verdadero.
Oh, Jesús, quiero amar como tú, quiero amar hasta el fin como tú. Oh, Señor, dale vida a mi amor con tu amor.
FINAL
Perdona a tu pueblo Señor, perdona a tu pueblo perdónale Señor.
No estés eternamente enojado, no estés eternamente enojado perdónale Señor.
Por tus profundas llagas crueles, por tus espinas y por tus hieles, perdónale Señor.
Por las heridas de pies y manos, por los azotes tan inhumanos, perdónale Señor.
Por los tres clavos que te clavaron y las espinas que te punzaron, perdónale Señor.
Por las tres horas de tu agonía en que por madre diste a María, perdónale Señor.

Oración por nuestro Sínodo Diocesano
Padre nuestro, Tú nos has llamado por nuestro bautismo a ser
fieles miembros de tu Iglesia.
Envía el Espíritu Santo a guiar nuestro trabajo del Segundo Sínodo de la
Diócesis de Reno.
Inspíranos a traer nueva vida a la misión de tu Iglesia aquí en el norte de Nevada.
Por medio del trabajo de nuestro Sínodo ayúdanos a ir a donde el Espíritu Santo nos conduzca,
que podamos ser instrumentos de
esperanza para el mundo anunciando la Buena Nueva a toda la gente. Con el ejemplo y ayuda
de María nuestra Madre quien se reunió con los discípulos en el Cenáculo,
ayúdanos a escuchar la llamada del Espíritu Santo.
Ven, Espíritu Santo llena los corazones de tus fieles y enciende en ellos el fuego de tu amor.
Te lo pedimos por Jesucristo nuestro Señor. Amen
