OUR PASTOR ’S PAGE
When Bad Things Happen to Good People
Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, “Why do bad things happen to good people?” This is a question that many ask — both those who have faith and those who do not. We (who are faithful Catholic Christians) can wonder sometimes, “I am doing all the right things: prayer, going to Mass, treating people with love. Why has this happened to me? I don’t deserve this!” We can get disappointed or even angry with God. Some even stop going to church when things get bad. Our readings give us three individuals who are good but have bad things happen to them. Job, through no fault of his own, lost everything: his wife, his children, his wealth, his reputation. His friends told him to curse God and die, but he chose to bear all — not just patiently but faithfully. St. Paul shows us another example of a man, on fire with the love of God, who received criticism and rejection. People ques-tioned his character and authority. He did not deserve that treatment, especially after suffering so much to spread the gospel. And yet His love for Jesus kept him zealous for the truth, Woe to me if I do not preach the gospel! (1 Cor 9:16). Jesus gives us the ultimate example for making sense of why sometimes bad things happen to good people: Rising very early before dawn, he left and went off to a deserted place, where he prayed (Mk 1:35). We must turn to prayer when it feels like life is piling up on us, so that we do not get absorbed in self-pity. God is not the source of pain and suffe-ring; He is the source of peace and consolation. Jesus says in the gospel today, “Let us go…” (Mk 1:38). Once we make sense of our hardships through prayer — being completely honest with God in prayer — we can go. And we need to move on. God needs us to do His work on earth.
Yours in Christ, Fr. Lowry

PÁGINA DE NUESTRO PASTOR
Cuando Cosas Malas le Pasan a Gente Buena Queridos hermanos y hermanas en Cristo, “¿Porqué le pasan cosas malas a la gente Buena?” Esta es una pregunta que mu-chos se hacen — tanto los que tienen fe como los que no la tienen. Nosotros (que somos creyentes Católico Cristianos) podemos preguntarnos a veces, “Estoy hacien-do las cosas correctamente: oración, asistiendo a Misa, tratando a las personas con amor. ¿Porqué me ha pasado esto a mí? ¡Yo no me merezco esto!” Podemos desilu-sionarnos o incluso enojarnos con Dios. Algunos incluso dejan de ir a Misa cuando las cosas les van mal. Nuestras lecturas nos muestran a tres individuos que son buenos pero sin embar-go les han pasado cosas malas a ellos. Job, no por culpa suya, perdió todo: su espo-sa, sus hijos, su riqueza, su reputación. Sus amigos le recomendaron maldecir a Dios y morir, pero el eligió soportar todo — no sólo pacientemente sino fielmente. San Pa-blo nos presenta otro ejemplo de un hombre, con un ardiente amor por Dios, que reci-bió crítica y rechazo. Las personas cuestionaron su carácter y autoridad. El no mere-cía ser tratado así, especialmente después de haber sufrido tanto para difundir el evangelio. Y sin embargo, su amor por Jesús lo mantuvo comprometido con la ver-dad, “¡Ay de mí, si no anuncio el Evangelio!”. Jesús nos da el ejemplo definitivo para que le encontremos sentido al ¿Porqué a veces las cosas malas les suceden a la gen-te buena?: De madrugada, cuando todavía estaba muy oscuro, Jesús se levantó, salió y se fue a un lugar solitario, donde se puso a orar. Debemos volver a la oración cuan-do sentimos que la vida está poniendo mucha carga sobre nosotros, y por ello senti-mos lástima de nosotros mismos. Dios no es la fuente del dolor y el sufrimiento; El es la fuente de la paz y del consuelo. Jesús dice en el Evangelio de hoy, “Vamos” (MK 1:38). Una vez que le damos sentido a nuestras dificultades a través de la oración — siendo completamente hones-tos con Dios en la oración — podemos salir adelante. Y tenemos que avanzar. Dios necesita de nosotros para hacer su trabajo aquí en la Tierra.
Suyo en Cristo Fr. Lowry

This weekend kicks off the 2018 Bishop’s Annual Appeal. The Appeal is an opportunity for you to directly support the Diocese of Tyler’s mission to teach the faith anew to every single person in East Texas. Your generosity strengthens our seminarians, our retired clergy, and family life and faith formation ministries within the St. Philip Institute. Please pray fervently about how God might be calling you to coura-geously say ‘yes’ in your generosity and support. Help make all things new through Jesus Christ.

Este fin de semana inicia la Promesa Anual al Obispo 2018. La promesa es una oportunidad para que usted apoye directamente la misión de
la Diócesis de Tyler para enseñar la fe nuevamente a cada perso-na individual en el Este de Texas.

FAITH FORMATION NEWS Parents as you all know, Father Lowry is trying to raise money for new pews and flooring for our church
by asking for as many people or groups to donate $2,000.00 per pew and I would like Faith Formation as a whole to participate by gathering funds for one pew the goal is for each class is to collect $110 dollars but the class with most collections will get a pizza party please divide the $110.00 by the amount of students in your class and that is the amount that each student should donate but if they bring more that would be great !!!! Let’s try our best to help our church.
Sincerely,
Zoila Hunt Padres como todos ustedes saben, el padre Lowry está tratando de recaudar dinero para nuevas bancas y pisos para nuestra iglesia pidiéndole a las personas o a los grupos que donen $ 2,000.00 por banca y me gustaría que Formación de la Fe se junten y participen recaudando fondos para una banca el objetivo es que cada clase recolecte $ 110 dólares pero la clase que colecte más dinero recibirá una fiesta con pizza. Divida los $ 110.00 por la cantidad de estudiantes en su clase y esa es la cantidad que cada estudiante de-be donar, pero si traen más que sería genial !!!! Hagamos lo mejor para ayudar a nuestra iglesia.
Sinceramente
Zoila Hunt

Saint Michael, the Archangel, defend us in battle; be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou, O prince of the heavenly host, by the power of
God, cast into Hell, Satan and all the evil spirits, who prowl about the world, seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.
San Miguel Arcángel, defiéndenos en la batalla. Sé nuestro amparo contra las perversidad y asechanzas del
demonio. Reprímale Dios, pedimos suplicantes, y tu príncipe de la milicia celestial arroja al infierno con el divino poder a Satanás y a los otros espíritus malignos que andan dispersos por el mundo para la perdición de
las almas. Amén.
