M arc h 1, 2015 SECOND SUNDAY OF LENT
DEAR PARISHIONERS:
Dear Parishioners
The Cathedral is undergoing a sound system upgrade. One of theexisting amplifiers became erratic and sound delivery washampered in the choir loft and entrance. It is being replaced.
At the same time, new audio equalizer equipment is beinginstalled to help us have greater clarity and volume in all areas ofthe church. The difficulty is that the surfaces in Holy RosaryCathedral are hard - so sound waves can bounce around easilyand destructively influence each other (feedback). The manynooks and crannies add to this sound problem. New technologyis available to filter out some audio frequencies that are especiallyprone to feedback.
Some new speakers will be able to help us to achieve greaterclarity. Repositioning of other existing speakers will bring aboutmore volume without feedback problems.
The cost of all this work will be between $10,000 to 15,000 overthe coming months. We will make this project part of our ProjectAdvance case for 2015.
Thank you for your patience and support as we seek to improvethe sound system at our beloved Holy Rosary Cathedral.
Fr. Galvon

your disciples, of servanthood.
And your act of service alone
makes me capable
of serving others.
As I follow your ways,

as you pour out your love for others

STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION
Here I am!’ he answered.” – Genesis 22:11 It is easy to
say, “Here I am, Lord,” when we are kneeling in church.
Can we just as easily answer, “Here I am, Lord,” when we
go home, when a neighbor needs our help, when a fellow
parishioner asks us to join a committee, or when a letter
asks for our financial help? These are often exactly the
places where Jesus calls us to be.Stewardship Office, The Archdiocese of St. Louis,

Moisés y Elías conversaban con Él
Representando a la Ley vemos a Moisés y a Elías
representando a los Profetas. Esto nos da a entender de
manera muy clara y sencilla la unidad y continuidad de la
revelación en el Antiguo y Nuevo Testamento.
Pedro, desconcertado e invadido de temor reverencial ante la
presencia de lo divino, es el que toma la palabra; " Hagamos
tres chozas, una para ti, otra para Moisés y otra para Elías ". La
intervención deja entrever que Pedro prefiere para Jesús una
vida de gloria y felicidad más que un camino de dolor, de cruz
y de muerte. Esta frase recuerda las tentaciones en el desierto
y la tentación que mismo Pedro le había propuesto a Jesús. (Mc
8, 32-33).
Agradecimiento
A Muy Rev. Stanley Galvón y al Padre Federico Buttner por
darnos la oportunidad y espacio para celebrar nuestro mini-
retiro espiritual de Cuaresma, así como al Padre David Farfan
por impartirlo. Que Ntro. Señor siga derramando Su Gracia en
sus vocaciones sacerdotales.
Atentamente,
Comunidad Hispana en la Catedral de Ntra. Sra. del Santo
Rosario.
