May 21-22, Trinity Sunday
The mystery of the Trinity invites us to
understand that God though
one, is relational in being.
God is love and love creates
relationship. By baptism, we
are brought into relationship
with God and each other
so that we can embody
God’s dynamic love to the
whole world. How are we
being called to bring God’s
healing love to our corner of
the world this week?
Beautiful First Communion

PARISH FINANCES/FINANZAS
Mayo 21-22, Domingo de Trinidad
El misterio de la Trinidad nos invita a entender
que Dios, aunque uno, es
relacional en el ser. Dios es
amor y el amor crea la relación. El bautismo nos lleva
a la relación con Dios y con
los otros para que podamos
encarnar la dinámica del
amor de Dios hacia el mundo entero ¿Cómo se nos está
llamando a llevar la sanación
de Dios a nuestra esquina del
mundo esta semana?

Solemnidad de la Santísima Trinidad
Santa Cruz Church, Buda, Texas
THE MOST BLESSED TRINITY
LA SANTISIMA TRINIDAD
1. Whoever wishes to be saved must, above all, keep the Catholic faith.
2. For unless a person keeps this faith whole and entire he will undoubtedly be lost
forever.
3. This is what the Catholic faith teaches: we worship one God in the Trinity and the
Trinity in unity.
4. We distinguish among the persons, but we do not divide the substance.
5. For the Father is a distinct person; the Son is a distinct person; and the Holy Spirit
is a distinct person.
6. Still the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit have one divinity, equal glory, and
coeternal majesty.
7. What the Father is, the Son is, and the Holy Spirit is.
8. The Father is uncreated, the Son is uncreated, and the Holy Spirit is uncreated.
9. The Father is boundless, the Son is boundless, and the Holy Spirit is boundless.
10. The Father is eternal, the Son is eternal, and the Holy Spirit is eternal.
11. Nevertheless, there are not three eternal beings, but one eternal being.
12. Thus there are not three uncreated beings, nor three boundless beings, but one
uncreated being and one boundless being.
13. Likewise, the Father is omnipotent, the Son is omnipotent, and the Holy Spirit is
omnipotent.
14. Yet there are not three omnipotent beings, but one omnipotent being.
15. Thus the Father is God, the Son is God, and the Holy Spirit is God.
16. But there are not three gods, but one God.
17. The Father is lord, the Son is lord, and the Holy Spirit is lord.
18. There are not three lords, but one Lord.
19. For according to Christian truth, we must profess that each of the persons
individually is God; and according to Christian religion we are forbidden to say that
there are three gods or three lords.
20. The Father is not made by anyone, nor created by anyone, nor generated by anyone.
21. The Son is not made nor created, but he is generated by the Father alone.
22. The Holy Spirit is not made, nor created nor generated, but proceeds from the
Father and Son.
23. There is, then, one Father, not three fathers; one Son, not three sons; one Holy Spirit,
not three holy spirits.
24. In this Trinity, there is nothing greater, nothing less than anything else. But the entire
three persons are coeternal and coequal with one another.
25. So that, as we have said, we worship complete unity in the Trinity and the Trinity
in unity.
26. This then is what he who wishes to be saved must believe about the Trinity.
27. It is also necessary for eternal salvation that he believes steadfastly in the
incarnation of our Lord Jesus Christ.
28. The true faith is: we believe and profess that our Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God,
is both God and man.
29. As God he was begotten of the substance of the Father before time; as man he was
born in time of the substance of his Mother.
30. He is perfect God; and he is perfect man, with a rational soul and human flesh.
31. He is equal to the Father in his divinity, but he is inferior to the Father in his humanity.
32. Although he is God and man, he is not two but one Christ.
33. And he is one, not because his divinity was changed into flesh, but because his
humanity was assumed to God.
34. He is one, not at all because of a mingling of substances, but because he is one
person.
35. As a rational soul and flesh are one man: so God and man are one Christ.
36. He died for our salvation, descended to hell, arose from the dead on the third day.
37. Ascended, into heaven, sits at the right hand of God the Father almighty, and from
there he shall come to judge the living and the dead.
38. At his coming, all men are to arise with their own bodies; and they are to give an
account of their lives.
39. Those who have done good deeds will go into eternal life; those who have done evil
will go into everlasting fire.
40. This is the Catholic faith. Everyone must believe it, firmly and steadfastly; otherwise
he cannot be saved.
1. Todo el que quiera salvarse, es preciso ante todo que profese la fe católica:
2. Pues quien no la observe íntegra y sin tacha, sin duda alguna perecerá eternamente.
3. Y ésta es la fe católica: que veneremos a un solo Dios en la Trinidad Santísima y a
la Trinidad en la unidad.
4. Sin confundir las personas, ni separar la substancia.
5. Porque una es la persona del Padre, otra la del Hijo y otra la del Espíritu Santo.
6. Pero el Padre, el Hijo y el Espíritu Santo son una sola divinidad, les corresponde igual
gloria y majestad eterna.
7. Cuál es el Padre, tal es el Hijo, tal el Espíritu Santo.
8. Increado el Padre, increado el Hijo, increado el Espíritu Santo.
9. Inmenso el Padre, inmenso el Hijo, inmenso el Espíritu Santo.
10. Eterno el Padre, eterno el Hijo, eterno el Espíritu Santo.
11. Y sin embargo no son tres eternos, sino un solo eterno.
12. De la misma manera, no tres increados, ni tres inmensos, sino un increado y un
inmenso.
13. Igualmente omnipotente el Padre, omnipotente el Hijo, omnipotente el Espíritu
Santo.
14. Y, sin embargo, no tres omnipotentes, sino un omnipotente.
15. Del mismo modo, el Padre es Dios, el Hijo es Dios, el Espíritu Santo es Dios.
16. Y, sin embargo, no son tres Dioses, sino un solos Dios.
17. Así el Padre es Señor, el Hijo es Señor, el Espíritu Santo es Señor.
18. Y, sin embargo, no son tres Señores, sino un solo Señor.
19. Porque así como la verdad cristiana nos obliga a creer que cada persona es Dios
y Señor, la religión católica nos prohíbe que hablemos de tres Dioses o Señores.
20. El Padre no ha sido hecho por nadie, ni creado, ni engendrado.
21. El Hijo procede solamente del Padre, no hecho, ni creado, sino engendrado.
22. El Espíritu Santo procede del Padre y del Hijo, no hecho, ni creado, ni engendrado,
sino procedente.
23. Por tanto hay un solo Padre, no tres Padres; un Hijo, no tres Hijos; un Espíritu Santo,
no tres Espíritus Santos.
24. Y en esta Trinidad nada hay anterior o posterior, nada mayor o menor: pues las tres
personas son coeternas e iguales entre sí.
25. De tal manera que, como ya se ha dicho antes, hemos de venerar la unidad en la
Trinidad y la Trinidad en la unidad.
26. Por tanto, quien quiera salvarse es necesario que crea estas cosas sobre la Trinidad.
27. Pero para alcanzar la salvación eterna es preciso también creer firmemente en la
Encarnación de Nuestro Señor Jesucristo.
28. La fe verdadera consiste en que creamos y confesemos que Nuestro Señor
Jesucristo, Hijo de Dios, es Dios y Hombre.
29. Es Dios, engendrado de la misma substancia que el Padre, antes del tiempo; y
hombre, engendrado de la substancia de su Madre Santísima en el tiempo.
30. Perfecto Dios y perfecto hombre: que subsiste con alma racional y carne humana.
31. Es igual al Padre según la divinidad; menor que el Padre según la humanidad.
32. El cual, aunque es Dios y hombre, no son dos cristos, sino un solo Cristo.
33. Uno, no por conversión de la divinidad en cuerpo, sino por asunción de la humanidad
en Dios.
34. Uno absolutamente, no por confusión de substancia, sino en la unidad de la persona.
35. Pues como el alma racional y el cuerpo forman un hombre; así, Cristo es uno,
siendo Dios y hombre.
36. Que padeció por nuestra salvación: descendió a los infiernos y al tercer día resucitó
de entre los muertos.
37. Subió a los cielos y está sentado a la diestra de Dios Padre Todopoderoso: desde
allí ha de venir a juzgar a los vivos y a los muertos.
38. Y cuando venga, todos los hombres resucitarán con sus cuerpos, y cada uno
rendirá cuentas de sus propios hechos.
39. Y los que hicieron el bien gozarán de vida eterna, pero los que hicieron el mal irán
al fuego eterno.
40. Ésta es la fe católica, y quien no la crea fiel y firmemente no se podrá salvar.

SANTA CRUZ CATHOLIC SCHOOL/ESCUELA CATOLICA
The Santa Cruz Catholic School Advisory Board is seeking a new
member who would be interested in serving our parish school community. If interested, please contact Adan Muñoz at adanmunozjr@
gmail.com for more information.
Santa Cruz Church, Buda, Texas
From the desk of Fr. Christian:
Blessed be the Holy Trinity, undivided unity, merciful to us
and granting us salvation by the incarnation,
death and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Dear brothers and sisters, I write to you, the community of Santa Cruz,
to let you know that I have decided to return to Mexico in the first
week of August, 2016.
During this year here with you I have learned a lot. It has been
a year full of wonderful and enriching experiences. I have received
much from each one of you.
Our Pastor, Father Kirby, has treated me with great kindness and
has taken great care of me. During these months, he has been like a
father to me, literally! It was not easy for him to accept my decision,
but it was a decision only I could make.
You have all received me as a father in the faith, as a brother in
the Lord, as a friend and as a priest. You opened the doors to your
homes. I will forever be grateful. I thank you for your delicious meals,
Christmas and Easter cards, your smiles, and availability when I
needed you.
Most of you, however, know my story. You’ve heard how I left
my home at the age of 15. I found myself thousands of miles away
from my parents and siblings. Today, at 34 years of age (and after an
honest reflection), I have decided to go back to my place of origin
and continue fulfilling the will of God there. It may be a temporary
decision. In a few years, I may return to the United States, but for now,
it is what I have decided to do.
I am taking with me only beautiful experiences and good
friendships from this parish. Do not ever stop supporting our pastor. It
weighs on me having to make this decision, and to leave Father Kirby
alone here with so much work. God willing, there will be another
associate pastor soon, whom I am confident you will receive with joy
and a spirit of faith.
God bless you, my friends. May the Blessed Virgin cover you with
her mantle and Divine Providence lead you to a safe harbor, so that
together, the flock may continue to follow the shepherd. You have my
most heartfelt prayers.
Your brother in Christ and in the faith of the Church,
Father Christian Sanchez
Sunday Morning
Traffic Update
Earlier this week, we were advised
by the Buda Police Department,
that the traffic cones previously
placed in the road at the east
entrance to the church property
during Sunday morning Masses
would no longer allowed. This
change was directed by the City
and no reason was provided for
the change.
We will continue to have a
police officer located at the traffic
light at the corner of Main Street
and Nighthawk Lane to expedite
leaving the church grounds.
Please take extra care in leaving the church property at the
east entrance after each Sunday
morning Mass.
Actualización De Tráfico Domingo Por La Mañana
A principios de esta semana, el
Departamento de policía de Buda
nos avisó, que los conos de tráfico
previamente colocados en la entrada - lado este - de la propiedad
de la Iglesia, durante las Misas
matutinas los domingos, no se
podrían usar más. Este cambio
fue dirigido por la ciudad y no
se nos proporcionó la razón por
el cambio.
Continuaremos teniendo a un
policía ubicado en el semáforo
de la esquina de las calles Main y
Nighthawk para acelerar la salida
del área de la iglesia.
Por favor tenga mucho cuidado al salir de la propiedad de
la iglesia, del lado este, después
de las Misas matutinas cada
domingo.
Solemnidad de la Santísima Trinidad
Del Escritorio del Padre Christian:
Bendita la Santísima Trinidad, Indivisible Unidad, que se ha manifestado
misericordiosa con nosotros y nos ha otorgado la salvación por la
Encarnación, Muerte y Resurrección de nuestro Señor Jesucristo.
Queridos hermanos y hermanas. Con gusto les escribo esta breve
misiva, y humildemente me dirijo a ustedes, mi comunidad querida de
Santa Cruz, para notificarles que he decidido volver a México, en la
primera semana de agosto de 2016.
A lo largo de este año con ustedes, un año cargado de experiencias
gratas y enriquecedoras, he aprendido mucho. He recibido mucho de
cada uno de ustedes.
El P. Kirby, nuestro Pastor, me trató con tanta caridad y me cuidó
con tanto detalle, que fue para mí como un verdadero padre a lo largo
de estos meses. Fue duro para él aceptar mi petición, pero ésa era mi
decisión.
Y ustedes me recibieron como un padre en la fe, como un hermano
en el Señor, como un amigo, como un pastor. Me abrieron las puertas
de sus casas. Se los agradezco infinitamente. Les agradezco sus
comidas tan ricas, las tarjetas de navidad y pascua, sus sonrisas, su
presencia constante.
Sin embargo, la mayoría de ustedes conoce mi historia. Saben
cómo dejé mi hogar a los 15 años. Me marché a miles de kilómetros
lejos de mis padres y hermanos. Hoy, a mis 34 años, tras una
sincera reflexión, decidí volver a mi lugar de origen y continuar
allí cumpliendo la Voluntad de Dios. Probablemente se trate de una
decisión temporal, y en unos pocos años yo vuelva a Estados Unidos,
pero por el momento esa es mi decisión.
De esta parroquia sólo me llevo hermosas experiencias y buenas
amistades. No dejen de apoyar a nuestro pastor. Me pesa haber
decidido esto, y dejarle a él solo, por aquí con tanto trabajo, pero Dios
mediante llegaré otro pastor asociado próximamente, a quien ustedes
recibirán con alegría y espíritu de fe.
Dios los bendiga mucho, hermanos míos. La santísima Virgen los
cubra con su manto. La Providencia santísima los conduzca a puerto
seguro, juntos, como rebaño en pos de su pastor. Cuenten con mis más
sinceras oraciones.
Su hermano en Cristo y en la fe de la Iglesia,
P. Christian Sánchez
