The Twenty-Eighth Sunday in Ordinary Time
Year of Faith
The Year of Faith officially
began on October 11th!
It’s not too early to be thinking about
how you’ll get the most out of this special time. The
US Conference of Catholic Bishops is suggesting
ten ways in which Catholics may observe the Year
of Faith, which will commemorate the fiftieth
anniversary of the opening of the Second Vatican
Council and the twentieth anniversary of the promulgation of the Catechism of the Catholic Church.
The ten suggestions include going to Mass and
Confession; reading the Bible, saints’ lives, the
Catechism, and the documents of the Second
Vatican Council; and helping the needy, inviting
others to Mass, volunteering at your parish, and
striving to follow the Beatitudes.
There’s a lot to be done, but don’t panic, we have
plenty of time as our Year of Faith will conclude on
the Solemnity of Christ the King in November
2013.

Next Sunday is
World Mission
Sunday
United with the
Catholics of the world
at the Table of the Lord, we recommit ourselves to
our vocation, through Baptism, to be “missionaries
of faith,” Our prayers and Eucharistic celebration
next Sunday are directed in a special way toward our
brothers and sisters throughout the world who are
waiting to hear the joyous “Good News” of Jesus.
Through our financial gifts, offered in next week’s
collection for the Society for the Propagation of the
Faith, we become partners with missionaries who
proclaim the Gospel and offer help and hope to the
poor in mission countries.
There are special envelopes in the pews today for
this special collection, please take one home and
return it in next week’s collection.
Rosaries for Peace
This weekend we join with parishes throughout the Diocese to pray the Rosary for peace.
During the early years of Pope John Paul II’s
pontificate, he called on Catholics of the world
to pray more for peace.
Our Rosaries for Peace
will be offered at the following times:
Saturday, October 13th at 4:30pm before the 5pm Mass
Sunday, October 14th at 8:00am before the 8:30am Mass
Sunday, October 14th at 12:30pm following the Spanish Mass

Enroll your loved ones using the

When we pray for priests and
religious, we actually pray for
ourselves, since holy priests
and religious should result in a
holier people. When we pray
for these servants of Christ, we
also win the favor of Christ, for
we, in so praying, are furthering His work. Moreover, by
praying for vocations we are
helping our children and our
children’s children because we are using a meritorious means of preserving our faith for them.

Major Themes
of the Year of Faith
The major themes of this special year are
the very foundation of our faith:
—Belief in the Holy Trinity—Father,
Son, and Holy Spirit—and in the
Paschal Mystery: the crucifixion,
death, and resurrection of Jesus.
—A deepened encounter with the risen
Lord, who is the light of faith.
—A renewed commitment to Mass and the
Eucharist.
It is most important that the Year of Faith
should be approached with great joy as a celebration!
Election 2012: Bishops Support
Prop 34 to End Use of Death Penalty
In a statement released last week, the
California Catholic Conference issued strong support for Proposition 34 -- the initiative
that will end the use of the death penalty in the Golden State and replace it with life
imprisonment without parole. "We appeal to Californians to end a failed system of justice
and choose life. Violence does not end violence. Killing in the name of the state will not
end killing," said the Bishops.
"As teachers of the Catholic faith, we consistently proclaim the intrinsic worth and the
God-given dignity of all human life, whether innocent or guilty. We are all created in God's
image. As ministers to the victims of crime, we recognize the profound anguish of those
who have lost a loved one to violence. We offer them our prayers and the hope of a fuller
sense of justice," said the Bishops.
The Bishops also cited the 2005 statement from the U.S. Bishops, A Culture of Life and
the Penalty of Death, outlining the public policy objections to the use of capital
punishment:
—"The original intent of the death penalty was the protection of society from those who
had killed a fellow human being. However, in modern times the state can incarcerate
those convicted of a capital crime for the rest of their lives---with no chance they will ever
rejoin society.
—"The application of the penalty of death can be irreversibly wrong---as has been demonstrated by many condemned individuals who were later exonerated with DNA testing."

Pope Benedict XVI, in
his Address to the U.S.
Bishops in 2008,
reminded them and all
Catholics that participation in public life is part
and parcel of being a
Catholic. He stated,
“Any tendency to treat
religion as a private
matter must be resisted.
Only when their faith
permeates every aspect
of their lives do Christians become truly open
to the transforming
power of the Gospel.”
Support life and liberty!
Let your voice be heard!
“Accustom
yourself
continually
to make many acts
of love, for they
enkindle
and melt
the
soul.”

XVIII Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario
La puerta de la fe
La puesta de la fe esta inspirada en el pasaje de los Hechos 14,
27, donde “Pablo y Bernabé
convocaron a los miembros de la
Iglesia y les contaron todo lo
que Dios había hecho con ellos y
cómo había abierto la puerta de la fe a los
paganos”.
Recordemos que la puerta de la fe está
siempre abierta para nosotros, la cruzamos al proclamar la Palabra y cuando nuestro corazón se
deja plasmar por la gracia que transforma.
Atravesar esa puerta, es emprender un
camino que dura toda la vida. Si el camino de la
fe dura toda la vida es importante…
Redescubrir el camino de la fe. Esto es una exigencia para la Iglesia: porque su misión es transmitir la fe, para que el ser humano se encuentre
con Jesús, sabemos que hoy en día hay una profunda crisis de fe: ya no contamos con una cultura cristiana.
Primer objetivo: Es una ocasión para introducir a
toda la iglesia en un tiempo especial de reflexión y
redescubrimiento de la fe.
Segundo objetivo: el Año de la fe es una invitación
a una auténtica y renovada conversión al Señor,
único Salvador del mundo. “...proceso que dura
toda la vida”.
Tercer objetivo: A lo largo de este Año, será
decisivo volver a recorrer la historia de nuestra
fe.
Cuarto objetivo: El Año de la fe es una buena
oportunidad para intensificar el testimonio de
la caridad (amor fraterno).

La próxima semana es el
Domingo Mundial de las
Misiones
Unidos con los católicos
del mundo en la mesa del
Señor, nos comprometemos nuevamente en nuestra vocación como bautizados en ser misioneros.
Nuestras oraciones y la celebración eucarística del próximo domingo tendrá la intención por
nuestros hermanos y hermanas en todo el
mundo que están esperando oír la “Buena Nueva de Jesús”. A través de nuestras donaciones, que se ofrecerán en la segunda colecta la
próxima semana por la Sociedad de la Propagación de la Fe, nos convertimos en socios con
los misioneros que proclaman el Evangelio y
ofrecemos ayuda y esperanza a los pobres en
los países de misión.
Apoyo de los Obispos a la Proposición 34
para acabar con la pena de muerte
En un comunicado dado a conocer esta semana, la Conferencia
Católica de los Obispos de California emitió un fuerte apoyo a
la Proposición 34 - la iniciativa que pondrá fin al uso de la pena de muerte en este Estado y sustituirla por cadena perpetua
sin libertad condicional. "Hacemos un llamado a los californianos para poner fin a un sistema de justicia y elegir la vida.
Violencia no es acabar con la violencia. Matar en nombre del
Estado va a terminar matando, dijeron los obispos. Puedes leer
el comunicado completo aquí www.cacatholic.org/index.php/
take-action/faithful-citizenship/elections y encontrar recursos
para acabar con el uso de la pena de muerte. Para más información, puede visitar la página de las elecciones de 2012,
donde encontrarás información para formar su conciencia,
buscando el bien común y el resumen de las 11 iniciativas para
las elecciones del 6 de noviembre 2012.
