FROM OUR PASTOR, FR. MATTHEW ZUBERBUELER / DE NUESTRO PÁRROCO PADRE MATTHEW ZUBERBUELER

Dear Friends,

This year we have the gift of celebrating All Saints Day on a Sun-day! We hear the Gospel of the Beatitudes, the recipe for holy living. And we honor everyone who is in Heaven, famous ones and otherwise. We can ask for the Saints’ prayers to inspire us to bring our particular call to holiness into the mission of building God’s Kingdom in this world. Pope Francis has this to say about being peacemakers (from the Apostolic Exhortation Gaudete et ex-sultate:

88. Peacemakers truly “make” peace; they build peace and friend-ship in society. To those who sow peace Jesus makes this mag-nificent promise: “They will be called children of God” (Mt 5:9). He told his disciples that, wherever they went, they were to say: “Peace to this house!” (Lk 10:5). The word of God exhorts every believer to work for peace, “along with all who call upon the Lord with a pure heart” (cf. 2 Tim 2:22), for “the harvest of righteous-ness is sown in peace by those who make peace” (Jas 3:18). And if there are times in our community when we question what ought to be done, “let us pursue what makes for peace” (Rom 14:19), for unity is preferable to conflict.[74]

89. It is not easy to “make” this evangelical peace, which excludes no one but embraces even those who are a bit odd, troublesome or difficult, demanding, different, beaten down by life or simply uninterested. It is hard work; it calls for great openness of mind and heart, since it is not about creating “a consensus on paper or a transient peace for a contented minority”,[75] or a project “by a few for the few”.[76] Nor can it attempt to ignore or disregard conflict; instead, it must “face conflict head on, resolve it and make it a link in the chain of a new process”.[77] We need to be artisans of peace, for building peace is a craft that demands serenity, creativity, sen-sitivity and skill.

Sowing peace all around us: that is holiness. …helpful teachings as we face a potentially not-so-peaceful week.

With my prayers,Fr. Matthew ZuberbuelerPastor

P.S. Don’t forget on November 2nd and throughout November to pray for your departed loved ones and for all the Faithful Departed. Masses on Monday, November 2, will be at 7 AM, 8:20 AM,12 PM, and 7 PM (bilingual).

Queridos amigos,

¡Este año tenemos el regalo de poder celebrar el Día de Todos los Santos en un domingo! Escuchamos el Evangelio de las Bienaven-turanzas, la receta para una vida santa. Asimismo, honramos a todos los que están en el cielo, a los famosos y los no famosos. Po-demos pedir que las oraciones de los santos nos inspiren a llevar nuestro llamado particular a la santidad en la misión de construir el Reino de Dios en este mundo. El Papa Francisco dice esto acerca de ser pacificadores (de la Exhortación Apostólica Gaudete et ex-sultate):

88. Los pacíficos son fuente de paz, construyen paz y amistad so-cial. A esos que se ocupan de sembrar paz en todas partes, Jesús les hace una promesa hermosa: «Ellos serán llamados hijos de Dios» (Mt 5,9). Él pedía a los discípulos que cuando llegaran a un hog-ar dijeran: «Paz a esta casa» (Lc 10,5). La Palabra de Dios exhor-ta a cada creyente para que busque la paz junto con todos (cf. 2 Tm 2,22), porque «el fruto de la justicia se siembra en la paz para quienes trabajan por la paz» (St 3,18). Y si en alguna ocasión en nuestra comunidad tenemos dudas acerca de lo que hay que hacer, «procuremos lo que favorece la paz» (Rm 14,19) porque la unidad es superior al conflicto[74].

89. No es fácil construir esta paz evangélica que no excluye a nadie sino que integra también a los que son algo extraños, a las personas difíciles y complicadas, a los que reclaman atención, a los que son diferentes, a quienes están muy golpeados por la vida, a los que tienen otros intereses. Es duro y requiere una gran amplitud de mente y de corazón, ya que no se trata de «un consenso de escrito-rio o una efímera paz para una minoría feliz»[75], ni de un proyecto «de unos pocos para unos pocos»[76]. Tampoco pretende ignorar o disimular los conflictos, sino «aceptar sufrir el conflicto, resolverlo y transformarlo en el eslabón de un nuevo proceso»[77]. Se trata de ser artesanos de la paz, porque construir la paz es un arte que requiere serenidad, creatividad, sensibilidad y destreza.

Sembrar paz a nuestro alrededor, esto es santidad.… Útiles enseñanzas, mientras nos enfrentamos a una semana po-tencialmente no tan pacífica.

Con mis oraciones,Padre Matthew ZuberbuelerPárroco

P.S. El 2 de noviembre y durante todo ese mes, no se olviden de orar por sus seres queridos difuntos y por todos los fieles difuntos. Las Misas del lunes 2 de noviembre serán celebradas a las 7 AM, 8:20 AM, 12 PM y 7 PM (Bilingüe).

CONFESSIONS DURING COVID / CONFESIONES DURANTE COVID

COMMUNION SERVICE / SERVICIO DE COMUNIÓN

BAPTISMS / BAUTIZOS

Confessions are being heard in the meeting rooms down the hall to the right of the main entrance to the church in Rooms 8, 9 and 10. We are using these rooms so that the prescribed social distancing rules can be observed for your protection and ours.

Las confesiones están siendo escuchadas en las salas de reuniones 8, 9 y 10, ubicadas en el pasillo a la derecha de la entrada principal de la iglesia. Estas salas se están usando para el distanciamiento social entre una persona y otra según recomendado, para lograr de esta manera la protección de ustedes y la nuestra.

A brief Communion Service will be offered on the courtyard at 9:00 am Monday-Saturday and at 10:00 am on Sundays.

Se ofrecerá un servicio de comunión breve en el patio a las 9:00 am de lunes a sábado, y los Domingos a las 10:00 am.

All baptisms and baptism classes are back on schedule. They will require the same guidelines and restrictions for social dis-tancing as attending Mass at St. Anthony. Call the parish office between 9:00 am and 5:00 pm Monday through Friday. Baptism dates and registration forms are available on our parish website under the “Sacraments”

Todos los bautizos y las clases pre-bautismales están ya ofre-ciéndose en el mismo horario. La asistencia, requerirá las mis-mas pautas y restricciones del distanciamiento social que se guardan cuando se asiste a Misa en la Iglesia de San Antonio. Llame a la oficina parroquial de 9:00 am a 5:00 pm de lunes a viernes. Las fechas de bautismo y los formularios de inscrip-ción están disponibles en el sitio web de nuestra parroquia bajo el menú “Sacramentos”.

REMINDER that masks are required to attend Mass and are to be worn throughout the Mass. At Communion we strongly encourage receiving on the hand and removing mask temporarily to consume the Host. Some have stayed away from Mass because they fear these precautions are not being observed by others.

Remember that it is an act of kindness and charity to do what helps another.

POR FAVOR RECUERDEN que las mascarillas son necesarias para participar en la Santa Misa y deben

ser usadas durante toda la Misa. Para recibir la Co-munión les sugerimos y exhortamos que la reciban en la mano y remuevan la mascarilla temporal-mente para consumir la Eucaristía. Hay quienes no han asistido a la Santa Misa por temor a que

estas precauciones no están siendo observadas.

Recuerden que es un acto de bondad ycaridad hacer algo que ayude a otros.

SPIRITUAL COMMUNION

My Jesus, I believe you are truly present inthe Blessed Sacrament.

I love you more than anything in the world,and I hunger to feed on your flesh. But since I cannot receive communion at this moment, feed my soul at least spiritually. I unite myself to you now as I do

when I actually receive you.Never let me drift away from you.

AMEN

COMUNIÓN ESPIRITUAL

Creo, Jesús mío, que estás real yverdaderamente en el cielo y en elSantísimo Sacramento del Altar.

Te amo sobre todas las cosas y deseo vivamente recibirte dentro de

mi alma, pero no pudiendo hacerloahora sacramentalmente,

ven al menos espiritualmente ami corazón.

Y como si ya te hubiese recibido, Te abrazo y me uno del todo a Tí.

Señor, no permitas que jamás me aparte de Tí.

AMÉN
