Catholic Social Teaching Corner May 4-5, Third Sunday of Easter In today’s Gospel, Jesus asks Peter repeatedly, “Do you love me?” And when he answers “yes,” Jesus says, “Feed my lambs and sheep.” When we say “yes,” to loving Christ, we then commit to feeding his sheep and helping all those who hunger in mind, body and spirit. **********************************************************

Rincón de Enseñanza Social Católica Mayo 4-5, Tercer Domingo de Pascua En el Evangelio de hoy, Jesús le pregunta a Pedro repetidamente, “¿Me amas?” y él le responde “sí,” Jesús dice, “Alimenta a mis ovejas”. Cuando él dice “sí” un Cristo amoroso, entonces nosotros nos comprometemos a alimentar a sus ovejas y a mantener a todos aquellos hambrientos en la mente, cuerpo y espíritu. World Day of Prayer will be observed on Sunday, May 12, 2019, also known as "Good Shepherd Sunday." The purpose of this day is to publically fulfill the Lord's instruction to, "Pray the Lord of the harvest to send laborers into his harvest" (Mt 9:38; Lk 10:2). Please pray that young men and women hear and respond generously to the Lord's call to the priesthood, diaconate, religious life, societies of apostolic life or secular institutes. You can find many resources to promote a culture of vocations on the USCCB Vocations webpage (www.usccb.org/vocations). **********************************************************

La Jornada Mundial de Oración se celebrará el Domingo 12 de Mayo del 2019, también conocido como "Domingo del Buen Pastor". El propósito de este día es cumplir públicamente la instrucción del Señor de: "Ora al Señor de la cosecha para que envíe los obreros a su cosecha" (Mt 9:38; Lc 10: 2). Oremos para que los hombres y mujeres jóvenes escuchen y respondan generosamente al llamado del Señor al sacerdocio, al diaconado, a la vida religiosa, a las sociedades de vida apostólica o a los institutos seculares. Puede encontrar muchos recursos para promover una cultura de vocaciones en la página web de Vocaciones de la USCCB (www.usccb.org/vocations).

PARISH ANNOUNCEMENTS AND EVENTS Today is our Jamaica Festival. Join us as a sign of your support and enjoy food, music and fun! Food will be served beginning at 9:00 a.m. All proceeds support our Church. Encountering Christ Capital Campaign update Prior to Commitment weekend on April 28, we have 36 families who pledged total of $155,000.00. On Sunday April 28, we have additional 10 more families who pledged $17,750.00. The total pledges is $172,750.00 of $230,000.00 goal. St. Mary’s Confirmation Class of 2019 will be next Sunday, May 12th, at 12:00 p.m. in the Parish Hall. Bishop Vasquez will be here to celebrate Mass and the Sacrament of Confirmation. Everyone is welcome to join us. Next week is Mother’s Day Come with your Mother for a day of Eucharistic Thanksgiving and Mass. Let us give thanks to God for our Mothers. Special Collection Next Sunday for Seminarians & Priest Education and Formation As the Diocese of Austin rapidly continues to grow, we must ensure that we have an ample number of priests to celebrate the sacraments, preach God’s word and guide us on our journey with Christ. Thus, to ensure our priests are well-prepared, a man in formation pursues an education in philosophy, theology and pastoral care. Seminarian education and formation in the Diocese of Austin can take up to nine years. We believe that financial impediments should never prevent men from responding to God’s call to the priesthood. Most financial support for priests and seminarians is made available from the Catholic Services Appeal and a Seminarian Endowment in the Catholic Foundation, but the needs are far greater than our annual appeal can support. This special collection provides additional support for this very important effort. Knights of Columbus Will meet on next Sunday, after the 8:00 a.m. Mass in the Parish Hall. Members are requested to attend. Attention: First Communion & Confirmation Parents Important dates: Wednesday-05/08/19: Last Day of CCE. Saturday-05/11/19: Mandatory Confirmation Rehearsal for candidates and sponsors at 6:00p.m. in Church. Sunday-05/12/19: Confirmation Mass at 12:00 p.m. In the Parish Hall. . Wednesday-05/15/19: Mandatory First Communion Rehearsal at 6:00p.m in the Parish Hall. Saturday-05/18/19: First Communion Mass at 5:00 p.m. in the Parish Hall. Rosary Study Class will meet on Monday, May 20th, at 12:30 p.m. at Deacon Dwight Mahoney house. You are most welcome to join us.

Mayo el Mes del Rosario Se les invita a toda la comunidad estamos rezando el Santo Rosario todo los días a las 7 de la tarde. Traiga a sus hijos/as para que compartan en este momento de Fe. Encontrando a Cristo Campaña Capital actualización Anterior fin de semana de Compromiso el 28 de Abril, teníamos 36 familias que prometieron un total de $155,000.00. El Domingo 28 de Abril, tenemos otras 10 familias adicionales que prometieron $ 17,750.00. El total de las promesas es de $ 172,750.00 de la meta es de $230,000.00. Misa de Confirmaciones La próxima semana, nuestra Misa en Español a las 12:00 del medio día se llevara acabo en el Salón Parroquial, no en la Parroquia. Nuestro Señor Obispo Vásquez estará aquí para celebrar la Santa Misa y el Sacramento de la Confirmación. Por favor, de llegar a tiempo. La próxima semana es el Día de las Madres Ven con tu Mamá para un día de Eucarística y de Acción de Gracias. Demos gracias a Dios por nuestras Mamás. Colecta Especial para la próxima semana para la Educación y Formación de los Seminaristas y Sacerdotes Para atender a una población en rápido crecimiento, la Diócesis de Austin debe asegurarse de contar con un amplio número de sacerdotes para celebrar los sacramentos, predicar la palabra de Dios y guiarnos en nuestro viaje con Cristo. Para asegurarnos de que nuestros sacerdotes estén bien preparados, los hombres en formación recibirán una educación de calidad en filosofía, teología y cuidado pastoral. La educación y la formación de seminaristas en la Diócesis de Austin puede tomar hasta nueve años. Creemos que impedimentos financieros no deben interferir para que los hombres respondan al llamado de Dios al sacerdocio. La mayoría de la ayuda financiera para los sacerdotes y seminaristas se hace disponible a través del Llamado Para los Servicios Católicos y la Donación Seminarista de la Fundación Católica, pero las necesidades son mucho más grandes que lo que nuestro Llamado anual puede solventar. Esta colecta especial proporciona apoyo adicional a este esfuerzo tan importante. Atención: Padres de Primera Comunión y Confirmación Fechas importantes: Miércoles-05/08/19: Último día de Catecismo. Sábado-05/11/19: Ensayo obligatorio de Confirmación para los candidatos y padrinos a las 6:00 p.m. en la Parroquia. Domingo-05/12/19: Misa de Confirmación a las 12:00 p.m. en el Salón Parroquial.
