ON THE COVER:
St. Thérèse of Lisieux, Patroness of the Diocese of Fresno
St. Thérèse of Lisieux is the Patroness of the Diocese of Fresno. St. Thérèse was born January 2, 1873 in Alcon, Normandy,
France. She became a Carmelita nun at the age of fifteen, when she defined her path to God as “The Little Way,” which
consisted on love and trust in God. She died of tuberculosis on September 30, 1897, in Lisieux, France, at the age of twentyfour. She was canonized by Pope Pius XI on May 17, 1925, and in 1997 St. Thérèse of Lisieux was declared a Doctor of the
Church by Pope John Paul II.
Although her life as a nun was short-lived, it wasn’t without much accomplishment. While St. Thérèse lived an obscure
and unknown life as a cloistered nun, she later became one of the most popular saints of all time. St. Thérèse wrote an
autobiography, Story of a Soul, which was published after her death. Seventeen years after her death, nearly one million copies
of her autobiography were sold, and printed in thirty-five languages. Today, various images, statues and churches of St. Thérèse
of Lisieux can be found in almost every town and city in Christendom. Various buildings have been built in her honor. She is
known as “the child loved by all the world.”
After the appointment of Bishop John Bernard MacGinley, as Bishop of the Diocese of Monterey-Fresno, a parish within the
city of Fresno was dedicated to St. Thérèse of Lisieux, the first in the world. In 1925, the Shrine of St. Thérèse of Lisieux was
established and she became the patron saint of the Diocese.
St. Thérèse is most commonly represented with roses and a crucifix in her arms. She is the patron saint for the missions and of
florists. St. Thérèse of Lisieux is also known as “Thérèse of the Child Jesus” and “The Little Flower.” Her feast day is October 1.
In addition to St. Thérèse, St. Columba is the secondary patron saint of the Diocese of Fresno. He was born December 7,
521, in Donegal, Ireland. He died on June 9, 597, which is his feast day in Iona, Scotland. St. Columba was the father of
Christianity to the Scots people of the small coastal area west of Druim Alban. He is the patron of poets, bookbinders, as well
as various dioceses in Ireland and Scotland, and provides protection against floods.
Saint Agnes is another important saint for the Diocese of Fresno. Saint Agnes was an early Christian martyr, who devoted her
life entirely to God. She is the patron saint of the City of Fresno. There is a mission church located in Pinedale, California, that
is dedicated to her, and there is a major medical center in the city of Fresno that bears her name.

He was born in Buenos Aires on 17 December 1936, the son of
Italian immigrants. His father Mario was an accountant employed
by the railways and his mother Regina Sivori was a committed wife
dedicated to raising their five children. He graduated as a chemical
technician and then chose the path of the priesthood, entering the
Diocesan Seminary of Villa Devoto. On 11 March 1958 he entered
the novitiate of the Society of Jesus. He completed his studies of the
humanities in Chile and returned to Argentina in 1963 to graduate
with a degree in philosophy from the Colegio de San José in San
Miguel. From 1964 to 1965 he taught literature and psychology at
Immaculate Conception College in Santa Fé and in 1966 he taught
the same subject at the Colegio del Salvatore in Buenos Aires.
From 1967-70 he studied theology and obtained a degree from the
Colegio of San José.
On 13 December 1969 he was ordained a priest by Archbishop
Ramón José Castellano. He continued his training between 1970
and 1971 at the University of Alcalá de Henares, Spain, and on
22 April 1973 made his final profession with the Jesuits. Back
in Argentina, he was novice master at Villa Barilari, San Miguel;
professor at the Faculty of Theology of San Miguel; consultor to
the Province of the Society of Jesus and also Rector of the Colegio
Máximo of the Faculty of Philosophy and Theology.
On 31 July 1973 he was appointed Provincial of the Jesuits in
Argentina, an office he held for six years. He then resumed his
work in the university sector and from 1980 to 1986 served once
again as Rector of the Colegio de San José, as well as parish priest,
again in San Miguel. In March 1986 he went to Germany to finish
his doctoral thesis; his superiors then sent him to the Colegio del
Salvador in Buenos Aires and next to the Jesuit Church in the city
of Córdoba as spiritual director and confessor.
THE HOLY FATHER
Franciscus
Jorge Mario Bergoglio
13.III.2013
It was Cardinal Antonio Quarracino, Archbishop of Buenos Aires,
who wanted him as a close collaborator. So, on 20 May 1992 Pope
John Paul II appointed him titular Bishop of Auca and Auxiliary
of Buenos Aires. On 27 May he received episcopal ordination
from the Cardinal in the cathedral. He chose as his episcopal
motto, miserando atque eligendo, and on his coat of arms inserted
the ihs, the symbol of the Society of Jesus.
The first Pope of the Americas Jorge Mario Bergoglio hails from
Argentina. The 77-year-old Jesuit Archbishop of Buenos Aires is a
prominent figure throughout the continent, yet remains a simple
pastor who is deeply loved by his diocese, throughout which he has
travelled extensively on the underground and by bus during the 15
years of his episcopal ministry.
He gave his first interview as a bishop to a parish
newsletter, Estrellita de Belém. He was immediately appointed
Episcopal Vicar of the Flores district and on 21 December
1993 was also entrusted with the office of Vicar General of the
Archdiocese. Thus it came as no surprise when, on 3 June 1997,
he was raised to the dignity of Coadjutor Archbishop of Buenos
Aires. Not even nine months had passed when, upon the death of
Cardinal Quarracino, he succeeded him on 28 February 1998, as
Archbishop, Primate of Argentina and Ordinary for Eastern-rite
faithful in Argentina who have no Ordinary of their own rite.
“My people are poor and I am one of them”, he has said more than
once, explaining his decision to live in an apartment and cook
his own supper. He has always advised his priests to show mercy
and apostolic courage and to keep their doors open to everyone.
The worst thing that could happen to the Church, he has said on
various occasions, “is what de Lubac called spiritual worldliness”,
which means, “being self-centered”. And when he speaks of social
justice, he calls people first of all to pick up the Catechism, to
rediscover the Ten Commandments and the Beatitudes. His
project is simple: if you follow Christ, you understand that
“trampling upon a person’s dignity is a serious sin”.
Three years later at the Consistory of 21 February 2001, John Paul
II created him Cardinal, assigning him the title of San Roberto
Bellarmino. He asked the faithful not to come to Rome to celebrate
his creation as Cardinal but rather to donate to the poor what
they would have spent on the journey. As Grand Chancellor
of the Catholic University of Argentina, he is the author of the
books: Meditaciones para religiosos (1982), Reflexiones sobre la
vida apostólica (1992) and Reflexiones de esperanza (1992).
Despite his reserved character — his official biography consists
of only a few lines, at least until his appointment as Archbishop
of Buenos Aires — he became a reference point because of the
strong stances he took during the dramatic financial crisis that
overwhelmed the country in 2001.

THE SHIELD
In October 2001 he was appointed General Relator to the 10th
Ordinary General Assembly of the Synod of Bishops on the
Episcopal Ministry. This task was entrusted to him at the last
minute to replace Cardinal Edward Michael Egan, Archbishop of
New York, who was obliged to stay in his homeland because of
the terrorist attacks on September 11th. At the Synod he placed
particular emphasis on “the prophetic mission of the bishop”, his
being a “prophet of justice”, his duty to “preach ceaselessly” the
social doctrine of the Church and also “to express an authentic
judgement in matters of faith and morals”.
Pope Francis has decided to keep his previous coat of arms, chosen at
the time of his episcopal consecration and marked by linear simplicity.
The blue shield is surmounted by the symbols of papal dignity, the
same as those used by his Predecessor Benedict XVI (the mitre above
crossed keys of gold and silver, bound by the red cord). At the top of
the shield is the emblem of the Pope’s religious order, the Society of
Jesus: a radiant sun carrying the letters in red, ihs, the monogram of
Jesus. The letter h is crowned by a cross; beneath the letters are three
black nails.
All the while Cardinal Bergoglio was becoming ever more
popular in Latin America. Despite this, he never relaxed his sober
approach or his strict lifestyle, which some have defined as almost
“ascetic”. In this spirit of poverty, he declined to be appointed as
President of the Argentine Bishops’ Conference in 2002, but three
years later he was elected and then, in 2008, reconfirmed for a
further three-year mandate. Meanwhile in April 2005 he took
part in the Conclave in which Pope Benedict XVI was elected.
Lower down on the shield there is a star and spikenard flower. The star,
according to ancient armorial tradition, symbolizes the Virgin Mary,
the Mother of Christ and the Church; while the spikenard symbolizes
St. Joseph, Patron of the Universal Church. In traditional Hispanic
iconography, St. Joseph is shown with a vine in his hand. By bearing
these images on his shield, the Pope communicates his special devotion
to the Most Holy Virgin and to St. Joseph.
THE MOTTO
As Archbishop of Buenos Aires — a diocese with more than three
million inhabitants — he conceived of a missionary project based
on communion and evangelization. He had four main goals: open
and brotherly communities, an informed laity playing a lead role,
evangelization efforts addressed to every inhabitant of the city,
and assistance to the poor and the sick. He aimed to reevangelize
Buenos Aires, “taking into account those who live there, its
structure and its history”. He asked priests and lay people to
work together. In September 2009 he launched the solidarity
campaign for the bicentenary of the Independence of the country.
Two hundred charitable agencies are to be set up by 2016. And
on a continental scale, he expected much from the impact of the
message of the Aparecida Conference in 2007, to the point of
describing it as the “Evangelii Nuntiandi of Latin America”.
The motto of Pope Francis is taken from a passage from the venerable
Bede, Homily 21 (CCL 122, 149-151), on the Feast of Matthew,
which reads: Vidit ergo Jesus publicanum, et quia miserando atque
eligendo vidit, ait illi, ‘Sequere me’. [Jesus therefore sees the tax
collector, and since he sees by having mercy and by choosing, he says
to him, ‘follow me’.]
This homily is a tribute to Divine Mercy and is read during the
Liturgy of the Hours on the Feast of St. Matthew. This has particular
significance in the life and spirituality of the Pope. In fact, on the Feast
of St. Matthew in 1953, the young Jorge Bergoglio experienced, at
the age of 17, in a very special way, the loving presence of God in his
life. Following confession, he felt his heart touched and he sensed the
descent of the Mercy of God, who with a gaze of tender love, called
him to religious life, following the example of St. Ignatius of Loyola.
Until the beginning of the recent sede vacante, he was a member
of the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the
Sacraments, the Congregation for the Clergy, the Congregation
for Institutes of Consecrated Life and Societies of Apostolic
Life, the Pontifical Council for the Family and the Pontifical
Commission for Latin America.
Once he had been ordained a Bishop, H.E. Mons. Bergoglio,
in memory of this event that signified the beginning of his total
consecration to God in His Church, chose, as his motto and as his
program of life, the words of St. Bede: miserando atque eligendo. This
he has chosen to keep in his papal coat of arms.
He was elected Supreme Pontiff on 13 March 2013.

THE HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE DIOCESE OF FRESNO: 1770-2013
What is now the Diocese of Fresno was a very sparsely populated desert and forestland that was one portion of the vast Diocese of
Guadalajara comprising some two-thirds of the total area of Mexico. In 1769, all of Upper and Lower California were added to it.
1770
The first Diocesan records are kept with the arrival of Blessed Junipero Serra, a Franciscan Missionary, and his companions. They
are the first to bring the Catholic Faith to the area.
1779
Guadalajara becomes an archdiocese, with a suffragan diocese, Sonora. This includes the Mexican States of Sonora, Sinaloa, and
Upper and Lower California.
1784
Father Serra dies. During the course of his fourteen-year ministry in “New Spain,” he established nine missions and baptized over
six thousand people.
1823
Mexico wins its independence from Spain.
1834
The Catholic hierarchy of Mexico proposes the “Diocese of the Californias” which includes Upper and Lower California. The See
city is located in Santa Barbara. The first and only bishop of the new diocese is Francisco Diego y Moreno.
1846
The United States purchases “Upper California” from Mexico.
1850
Rome erects the Diocese of Monterey to embrace the entire State of California. The first Bishop of the Diocese is a Spanish
Dominican, Rev. Joseph Sadoc Alemany. He had become a naturalized American citizen.
1853
The Archdiocese of San Francisco is erected, and Bishop Alemany is appointed ordinary to that See.
1857
St. Joseph’s Church in Mariposa is established.
1858

PAPAL AUDIENCE
The Holy Father grants General audiences in St. Peter’s Square (or, in the summer, at Castel Gandolfo) every Wednesday at 10:30
a.m. Tickets, which are free of charge, are required. A letter from the Bishop’s office is not required for general seating. E-Mail your
request for tickets to [email protected]. If you are in Rome on a Sunday, go to St. Peter’s Square for the Angelus at noon. The
Holy Father appears at his apartment window to impart a blessing. The summer months are yet to be announced. No tickets are
required.
For more information about audiences, or about tours of St. Peter’s, or the Vatican Museum, e-mail [email protected].
The Scavi, or excavations, where St. Peter’s tomb may be found, are accessed through [email protected].
At General Audiences, newlyweds are seated in a special section in their wedding garments. (A copy of the wedding certificate is
required.) Church choirs are welcome to sing for the Holy Father.
Visitors should plan to be dressed appropriately.
PAPAL BLESSING
The Bishop’s Office will request Papal Blessings from the Vatican when a pastor attests in writing to the good moral character of the
person(s) for whom the blessing is intended.
If the occasion for the blessing is a wedding, or a wedding anniversary, the date, and the name of the church (with city and state)
must be provided. If the occasion is a birthday, it should be a hallmark number. The process takes approximately two months.

A PriestÊs Prayer
Loving Father,
I praise you, I love you, I adore you.
Send your Holy Spirit to enlighten my mind
to the truth of your Son, Jesus,
Priest and Victim.
Through the same Spirit guide my heart to his Sacred Heart,
to renew in me a priestly passion
that I, too, might lay down my life upon the altar.
May your Spirit wash away my impurities
and free me from all my transgressions
in the Cup of Salvation,
Let only your will be done in me.

May the Blessed Mother of your dearly beloved Son,
wrap her mantle around me and protect me from all evil.
May she guide me to do whatever He tells me.
May she teach me to have the heart of St. Joseph, her spouse,
to protect and care for my bride.
And may her pierced heart inspire me
to embrace as my own your children
who suffer at the foot of the cross.
I humbly cry to her:
please be my consoling mother,
and help me to be a better son.

Friday: 6:00 pm
The only venue for weddings within the park/parish, re-established
by the diocesan bishop, is to be the Yosemite Valley Chapel,
near Curry Village. The Yosemite chapel is under the care and
direction of the National Park Service and all arrangements for
a wedding must be arranged directly with the Park Service. Fees
for use of the chapel are to be paid directly to the Park Service.
For canonical purposes, Reverend Patrick Joel Davidilla, the pastor
of Our Lady of the Sierra in Oakhurst, is responsible for the valid
celebration of the sacrament within the park, and is to record
all marriages in the sacramental record books of Our Lady of
the Snows. Those couples wishing to bring their own clergy to
witness the marriage vows must comply with the rules of the
parish (preparation classes completed and county marriage license
obtained). Clergy must provide a current letter of suitability
directly to the diocesan chancery office. Parish will have fees
separate from those of the park in preparing for the wedding.

GENERAL INFORMATION
DIOCESAN POLICY FOR MARRIAGE
3. If the wedding is delayed, the couple has the right to appeal the
decision to the Bishop.
The policy of the Church states, “We the faith community to which you
belong, care about you and your future success in marriage; we want to
help you in growth of your relationship to each other and to God. Our
goal is to assist you to prepare not just for your wedding day, but for your
married life together.” This policy establishes definite diocesan norms and
guidelines for marriage preparation. This common policy for marriage
preparation is not intended to make it difficult for couples to marry in the
Catholic Church. Rather, it recognizes the seriousness of marriage and the
responsibility of a caring Church to help couples prepare adequately for a
community of life and love together.
VI. POSTPONEMENT OF MARRIAGE
In the event that the marriage is postponed by the decision of the priest,
every effort will be made by the priest to help the couple overcome the
specific circumstances that made the delay advisable.
If the couple decides to marry outside the Church, they must be advised
that the Church cannot approve of their action. However every effort
should be made to insure that the doors of communication be left open
for future reconciliation. A priest may not proceed with a marriage
postponed by another priest without the approval of the Bishop
I. NOTIFICATION TO THE PARISH PRIEST
As a minimum requirement couples must contact the parish priest at
least 6 months before their wedding date.
VII. INTERFAITH MARRIAGES
Faith and religious practice are meant to be a source of unity in marriage.
When a Catholic marries a non-Catholic, special attention is required
so that the difference in faith does not become a cause of conflict and
division. An interfaith marriage may not have two religious ceremonies
or use both rites in a single ceremony celebrated jointly or successively.
With the permission of the Bishop, a non-Catholic minister may be
invited to participate in the Catholic marriage service. The Catholic party
in an interfaith marriage will be asked to make an explicit promise that
everything possible will be done to see that the children of the marriage
will be baptized and educated in the Catholic faith. The non-Catholic
party will be informed of the Catholic party’s obligation to preserve and
practice the Catholic faith.
II. THE PARISH PRIEST
The parish priest who will witness the marriage has the responsibility
to make a two-fold assessment:
1. The couple’s readiness for marriage.
2. The level of faith of the Catholic parties. A wedding date may be
scheduled during the initial meeting with the priest. However, the
couple is advised that if serious reasons surface later, the priest may
delay the wedding until the matter is resolved.
III. THE PREPARATION PROCESS
The proximate preparation for marriage consists of three steps:
1. One initial session with the parish priest.
2. Participation in one of the available marriage preparation Programs.
3. Final session with the priest.
A minimum of 8 hours is to be spent in the formal preparation for
marriage. Couples seeking to validate their marriage or who seek to
enter a second marriage should follow the preparation.
VIII. NON-PRACTICING CATHOLICS
The same procedure as for an interfaith marriage is required when a nonpracticing Catholic requests the sacrament of marriage.
IX. PREGNANCY
Pregnancy before marriage does not mean an exception to the norms of
marriage preparation as outlined in the policy. It is even more important to
the success of such marriages that the established procedures be followed.
The priest should discuss the situation with both sets of parents in all cases
of this kind if it is possible to do so without violating confidence. While
the Church views such situations with great compassion it should not be
presumed that marriage is the only appropriate solution.
IV. REASONS FOR DELAY OF THE MARRIAGE
The Church holds that the right to marry is an important natural right.
However it is not an unrestricted one. There can be serious reasons for
delaying the marriage:
1. Refusal of the couple to take part in the process of preparation for
marriage.
2. Non-practice of the Catholic faith by the Catholic party or parties
with no intention of returning to the practice of the faith. This may also
include the lack of intention to provide religious education in the
Catholic
faith for children of this marriage.
3. Inability of the couple to contract a valid marriage (e.g. denial of
permanence of marriage, or other canonical impediments).
4. Serious lack of maturity as assessed by the priest.
5. Teenagers under 19 years of age: such couples must receive individual
evaluative counseling before the marriage can be arranged in
accord with the policy of the Diocese of Fresno.
6. Separation of the couple for an extended period before the
wedding.
7. Not fulfilling the requirements of Church law.
X. REQUIRED DOCUMENTS
1. A certificate of Baptism must be submitted for each baptized party.
The certificate for the Catholic must be issued within 6 months of the
date of marriage.
2. A certificate of First Communion and Confirmation must be
submitted .
3. If either party is a widow or a widower a certificate of the death of
the former spouse must be submitted.
4. Banns of marriage should be announced in the proper churches.
Banns may be announced for interfaith marriages if there is no danger
of scandal.
5. Certificate of civil marriage and/or Marriage License.
XI. LOCATION OF MARRIAGE
1. Marriage should take place in the parish church of one of the parties.
2. Weddings in private homes, “out-doors” or in wedding chapels are
not permitted in this Diocese.
V. ASSESSMENT OF READINESS FOR MARRIAGE
1. Couples may enter marriage with major problems that can lead to
possible marriage failure. This could even render the marriage invalid.
It is the responsibility of the priest to be sensitive to such a possibility.
2. If a major obstacle to marriage is discovered, the priest will make the
decision if there is to be a delay of the wedding after proper consultation
and evaluation.

Can. 1065 §1 Catholics who have not yet received the Sacrament of Confirmation are to
receive it before being admitted to marriage, if this can be done without grave inconvenience.
GENERAL INFORMATION
EUCHARISTIC FAST
CAN. 919.3 The elderly and those who are suffering from some illness, as
well as those who care for them, may receive the blessed Eucharist even if
within the preceding hour they have consumed something.
CAN. 917 One who has received the blessed Eucharist may receive it
again on the same day only within a Eucharistic celebration in which that
person participates.
CAN. 919.1 Whoever is to receive the blessed Eucharist is to abstain for
at least one hour before Holy Communion from all food and drink, with
the sole exception of water and medicine.
DIOCESAN POLICY FOR THE RECEPTION OF BAPTISM
For adult baptism:
The norm established by the Church (1972) for the preparation of
adults and children who have reached the age or reason to be received
into the Church calls for a communal and gradual initiation into the
mystery of Christ.
1. An adult who seeks baptism into the Church is to be admitted to the
“Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults” (R.C.I.A.), which should be
part of every parish. This is normally done by speaking personally with
the priest of the parish in which one lives. Children who have reached
the age of reason are to be admitted to the “Rite of Christian Initiation
for Adults” adapted for children.
2. An adult who has already received Christian baptism but not in the
Catholic Church and wishes to be received into the Catholic Church
is to follow the stages as set forth in the same rite as a candidate for
reception into full communion.
3. All participating in the R.C.I.A. are to be confirmed immediately
after receiving baptism or after being received into full communion.
They are to fully participate in the celebration of the Eucharist, which
includes the reception of Holy Communion. This takes place normally
during the Easter Vigil service.
4. The sponsors of an adult, in addition to fulfilling the same
requirements as for a sponsor of an infant, are encouraged to
accompany the catechumen/candidate through the stage of preparation
for the sacrament of initiation.
For infant baptism:
1. Infants should be baptized soon after birth, but sufficient time is
necessary for the proper instruction.
2. Children who are seven years of age or older must receive instruction
in the Church before being baptized (cf adult baptism).
3. The ordinary place for baptism is in the parish church of the parents.
4. One of the parents or a legal guardian must request baptism.
5. There must be a founded hope that the child baptized will be
brought up in the Catholic religion.
6. Godparents must have received Baptism, Confirmation and the Holy
Eucharist, should be at least 16 years of age, and should be practicing
Catholics who are able to give the example of a good Catholic life.
There are normally to be two godparents, one man and one woman. If
they are couple, must be married in the Catholic church.
7. A baptized non-Catholic may not be a godparent but may be
an official witness to the baptism, as long as there is one Catholic
godparent.
8. Baptism is not to be conferred until parents and godparents have
attended pre-baptismal instruction. The responsibilities of parents and
godparents are to be reviewed, as well as preparation for the celebration
of the rite of baptism.
DIOCESAN POLICY FOR THE RECEPTION OF EUCHARIST AND PENANCE
clearly distinguish between the two sacraments. The beginning catechesis
for penance is to precede the reception for First Eucharist. The reception
of First Penance is to be separated by several months from the reception
of First Eucharist.
A two-year catechesis of preparation is required. It is recommended
that parents of children also attend a program of catechesis and doctrinal
preparation.
The catechesis for the initial reception of the Sacrament of Penance is
to be separated from the catechesis for First Eucharist so that the child will
DIOCESAN POLICY FOR THE RECEPTION OF CONFIRMATION
A sponsor must be a confirmed Catholic, who has already received the
sacrament of the Most Holy Eucharist; at least 16 years of age and have
the intention of carrying out the duties of a godparent. It is desirable that
the one who undertook the role of sponsor at baptism be the sponsor
for confirmation.
Parents may not be sponsors for their children, but may present them
for the sacrament.
Candidates for Confirmation must be at least 16 years of age and at
least high school juniors. A two-year catechesis of preparation is required
and should integrate elements of Bible study, community, liturgy and
service.
The sponsor for the candidate is to act as a true witness of Christ and
faithfully fulfill the obligation inherent in this sacrament. The Church
recommends that the sponsor for confirmation be the same sponsor that
the candidate had at baptism.

GENERAL INFORMATION
DIOCESAN POLICY CONCERNING BURIAL
CAN. 1176.1 Christ’s faithful who have died are to be given a Church
funeral according to the norms of law.
Cremation: Consultation with a parish priest is required before
completing arrangements for cremation and burial.
CAN. 1176.2 Church funerals are to be celebrated according to the
norms of the liturgical books. In these funeral rites the Church prays for
the spiritual support of the dead, it honors their bodies, and at the same
time it brings to the living the comfort of hope.
GUIDELINES REGARDING CREMATION
Although cremation is now permitted, Catholic teaching continues
to stress the preference for burial or entombment of the body of the
deceased. When cremation is chosen for serious reasons, the following
guidelines have been promulgated by the Bishop of our diocese.
CAN, 1176.3 The Church earnestly recommend that the pious custom of
burial be retained; but it does not forbid cremation, unless this is chosen
for reasons which are contrary to Christian teaching.
1. The body of the deceased should be present for its funeral rites;
2. When circumstances prevent the presence of the body at the funeral
liturgy, it is appropriate that the cremated remains of the body be present
for the full course of the funeral rites; placed in a worthy vessel on the spot
usually occupied by the coffin. As usual, the funeral liturgy should always
be celebrated in a church.
DIOCESAN GUIDELINES
As a general rule, Catholics are to be buried in a Catholic cemetery. Some
exceptions are:
A) Ownership in good faith of a grave in a secular cemetery (for example,
a convert who had purchased a grave before conversion);
3. As usual, the funeral liturgy should always be celebrated in a church.
4. The cremated remains should be reverently buried or entombed in a
cemetery or mausoleum. (The practice of scattering cremated remains on
the sea, from the air, or on the ground, or keeping cremated remains in
home of a relative or friend is not in accord with Church practice.)
B) Burial of a veteran in a national cemetery;
C) When no Catholic cemetery is available;
A non-Catholic may be buried in a Catholic cemetery if he or she is a
member of a Catholic family, such as party to a mixed marriage or close
relative of a Catholic.
5. If at all possible, the place of entombment should be marked with a
plaque or stone memorializing the deceased.
GENERAL LAWS OF FAST AND ABSTINENCE
CAN. 1251 Abstinence from meat is to be observed on all Fridays of
Lent. Abstinence and fasting are to be observed on Ash Wednesday and
Good Friday.
CAN. 1249 All Christ’s faithful are obliged by divine law, each in his or
her own way, to do penance. However, so that all may be joined together
in a certain common practice of penance, days of penance are prescribed.
On these days the faithful are in a special manner to devote themselves to
prayer, to engage in works of piety and charity, and to deny themselves, by
fulfilling their obligations more faithfully and especially by observing the
fast and abstinence which the following canons prescribe.
CAN. 1252 The law of abstinence binds those who have completed
their fourteenth year. The law of fasting binds those who have attained
their majority (18 years of age), until the beginning of their sixtieth year.
Pastors of souls and parents are to ensure that even those who by reason
of their age are not bound by the law of fasting and abstinence, are taught
the true meaning of penance.
CAN. 1250 The days and time of penance for the universal Church are
each Friday of the whole year and the season of Lent.
NORMS REGARDING HOLY DAYS OF OBLIGATION IN THE DIOCESE OF FRESNO
Holy Days of Obligation are the following:
August 15, the Feast of the Assumption
November 1, the Feast of All Saints
December 8, Feast of the Immaculate Conception
December 25, Christmas
December 8, feast of the Immaculate Conception, patroness of the United
States, is always an obligatory feast, regardless of the day it falls on. This
goes also for Christmas Day, December 25.
Regarding obligation status, when August 15 and November 1, fall on a
Saturday or Monday, it is NOT an obligatory feast, only a solemn feast.
The faithful are not required to attend Mass.
Also, Ascension Thursday is now celebrated on the Seventh Sunday of
Easter.
January 1, Solemnity of Mary, the Mother of God is NOT a holy day of
obligation in the Province of Los Angeles, to which Fresno belongs.

tú perteneces, se preocupa por ti y por el éxito en tu futuro matrimonio;
queremos ayudarte a crecer en la relación del uno para con el otro y con Dios.
Nuestro objetivo es ayudarte a prepararte, no solo para el día de la boda,
sino para toda tu vida matrimonial.” Esta política establece normas y guías
diocesanas definidas para la preparación matrimonial. Esta política común
de preparación matrimonial intenta ayudar a quienes quieran casarse en la
Iglesia Católica. Puesto que, la Iglesia reconoce la seriedad del matrimonio,
y es consciente de su responsabilidad de cuidar y de ayudar a las parejas a
prepararse adecuadamente para que su matrimonio sea una Alianza de vida y
de amor.
VI. APLAZAMIENTO DEL MATRIMONIO
En la eventualidad de que el matrimonio se posponga por decisión del
sacerdote, el sacerdote hará todo lo posible para ayudar a la pareja a superar
las circunstancias específicas que han hecho que se aconsejara dicho
aplazamiento. Si la pareja decide casarse fuera de la Iglesia, ellos deben ser
advertidos que la Iglesia no puede aprobar su acción. Sin embargo, se debe
hacer todo el esfuerzo para asegurar que las puertas de la comunicación
queden abiertas para una futura reconciliación. Un sacerdote no debe
proceder, sin la aprobación del Obispo, a realizar un matrimonio aplazado
por otro sacerdote.
I. NOTIFICACIÓN AL SACERDOTE DE LA PARROQUIA
Se requiere que los contrayentes contacten al sacerdote de su parroquia por
los menos 6 meses antes del día que planean casarse.
VII. MATRIMONIO DE DISTINTA RELIGIÓN
La práctica de la fe y la religión están hechas para ser una fuente de unidad
en el matrimonio. Cuando un católico se casa con un no-católico, se requiere
de una atención especial de tal forma que la diferencia fe no se convierta en
causa de conflicto y división. Un matrimonio de distinta religión no puede
tener dos ceremonias religiosas o usar los dos ritos en una misma ceremonia
celebrada conjuntamente o sucesivamente. Con el permiso del Obispo,
un ministro no-católico puede ser invitado a participar en el servicio de
un matrimonio católico. A la parte católica en un matrimonio de distinta
religión se le pedirá hacer una promesa explícita de que hará todo lo posible
para que los hijos del matrimonio sean bautizados y educados en la Fe
Católica. La parte no-católica será informada de la obligación de la parte
católica de preservar y practicar la fe católica.
II. EL SACERDOTE DE LA PARROQUIA
El sacerdote de la parroquia, quién celebrará el matrimonio, tiene la
responsabilidad de evaluar:
1. La capacidad y preparación de la pareja para el matrimonio.
2. El nivel de fe de las partes católicas.
Una fecha para la boda puede programarse durante la primera reunión con
el sacerdote. Sin embargo, la pareja debe ser advertida que si posteriormente
surgieran razones serias, el sacerdote podrá posponer la boda hasta que el
asunto se resuelva.
III. EL PROCESO DE PREPARACIÓN
La preparación próxima para el matrimonio consta de tres pasos:
1.Una sesión inicial con el sacerdote de la parroquia.
2.Participación en uno de los programas de preparación
matrimonial disponible.
3.Sesión final con el sacerdote.
La preparación formal para el matrimonio consistirá en un mínimo de 8
horas. Parejas que busquen convalidar su matrimonio o quienes buscan
contraer un (nuevo) matrimonio deben seguir la misma preparación.
VIII. CATÓLICOS NO-PRACTICANTES
El mismo procedimiento de los matrimonios de distinta religión será
requerido, cuando un católico no-practicante solicite el sacramento del
matrimonio.
IX. EMBARAZO
El embarazo antes del matrimonio no significa una excepción a las normas
para la preparación al matrimonio como se indica en la política. Es aún
más importante para el éxito de tales matrimonios que los procedimientos
establecidos se sigan. En todos los casos de esta índole, el sacerdote deberá
discutir esta situación con los padres de la pareja, haciendo lo posible para
no romper la confidencialidad. Aún cuando la Iglesia ve tales situaciones con
gran compasión no se debe asumir que el matrimonio sea la única solución o
la más apropiada.
IV. RAZONES PARA APLAZAR UN MATRIMONIO
La iglesia sostiene que el derecho a casarse es un derecho natural importante.
Sin embargo, este derecho, no es sin restricciones. Puede haber serias razones
para demorar un matrimonio:
1. Que la pareja se niegue a participar en el proceso de preparación
matrimonial.No practicar la Fe Católica por la parte Católica o que la
pareja no tenga la intención de regresar a la práctica de la fe. Esto puede
incluir, el no tener la intención de proveer educación religiosa en la Fe
Católica a los hijos de ese matrimonio.
2. Incapacidad de la pareja para contraer un matrimonio válido
(ej. Negarse a permanecer en el matrimonio, u otros impedimentos
canónicos).
3. Falta de madurez, seria y grave, evaluada por el sacerdote.
4. Adolecentes menores de 19 años: tales parejas deben recibir consejería
individual evaluativa antes del matrimonio; debe estar de acuerdo con la
política de la Diócesis de Fresno.
5. Separación de la pareja por un periodo prolongado antes de la boda.
6. Incumplimiento de los requisitos de la ley de la Iglesia.
X. DOCUMENTOS REQUERIDOS
1.Certificado de Bautismo. Se debe presentar un certificado de bautizo
de cada uno de los contrayentes. Para los Católicos, el certificado debe ser
expedido seis meses antes a la fecha de la boda.
2.Certificado de Primera Comunión y de Confirmación. Deben ser
presentados.
3.Certificado de Defunción. Si una de las partes es viudo o viuda debe
presentar el certificado de defunción de su anterior conyugue.
4.Las Amonestaciones. Deberán publicarse en las parroquias respectivas.
Para los matrimonios de distinta religión, las amonestaciones pueden ser
publicadas, siempre y cuando no haya ningún peligro de escándalo.
5.Certificado de Matrimonio Civil y/o Licencia de Matrimonio Civil.
V. EVALUACIÓN DE LA PREPARACIÓN PARA EL MATRIMONIO
1.Parejas que tal vez entren al matrimonio con problemas serios, que
puedan llevarlos al fracaso matrimonial. Esto puede llevar a la
invalidez del matrimonio. Es responsabilidad del sacerdote ser sensible a
tal posibilidad.
2.Si se descubre un obstáculo mayor para el matrimonio, después de una
apropiada consulta y evaluación, el sacerdote podrá tomar la decisión, si es
XI. LUGAR DEL MATRIMONIO
1.El matrimonio debe celebrarse en la Iglesia parroquial de uno de los
novios.
2.Bodas en casas privadas, “al aire libre” o en capillas matrimoniales no están
permitidas en esta diócesis.

Can. 1065 §1 Los católicos que aún no reciben el sacramento de la confirmación deberán
recibirlo antes de contraer matrimonio, si es que se puede dar sin un inconveniente grave.

AYUNO EUCAR¸STICO
CAN. 917 Quien ya ha recibido la santísima Eucaristía puede recibirla
otra vez el mismo día solamente dentro de la celebración eucarística en
que la persona este participando.
CAN. 919.3 Las personas de edad avanzada o enfermas, y asimismo
quienes las cuidan, pueden recibir la santísima Eucaristía aunque hayan
tomado algo en la hora inmediatamente anterior.
CAN. 919.1 Quien vaya a recibir la santísima Eucaristía, ha de abstenerse
de tomar cualquier alimento y bebida al menos desde una hora antes de la
sagrada comunión, a excepción sólo del agua y de las medicinas.
POL¸TICA DIOCESANA PARA RECIBIR EL SACRAMENTO DE BAUTISMO
BAUTISMO PARA INFANTES:
PARA EL BAUTISMO DE ADULTOS:
La norma establecida por la iglesia (1972) para la preparación de adultos
y niños que han alcanzado la edad de razonamiento para ser recibidos en la
iglesia llama a una común y gradual iniciación en el misterio de Cristo.
1. Un adulto que busca ser bautizado en la iglesia debe ser admitido
al “Rito de Iniciación Cristiana para Adultos” (R.I.C.A.) el cual debe
ser parte de cada parroquia. Esto se hace normalmente hablando con
el sacerdote de la parroquia a la que pertenece. Los niños que han
alcanzado la edad de razonamiento (7 años) deben ser admitidos al
“Rito de Iniciación Cristiana para Niños” (R.I.C.N.)
2. Un adulto que ya haya recibido el bautismo cristiano pero no en la
iglesia católica y desea ser admitido en la iglesia católica debe seguir
las mismas normas establecidas para un candidato a la recepción en
comunión plena.
3. Todos los participantes en el R.I.C.A. deben ser confirmados
inmediatamente después de recibir el bautismo o después de haber sido
recibido en comunión plena. Ellos han de participar plenamente de la
celebración eucarística que incluye la recepción de la Santa Comunión.
Esto normalmente se lleva a cabo durante el servicio de la Vigilia
Pascual.
4. Los padrinos de un adulto, además de cumplir con los mismos
requisitos del padrino de un infante, se les anima a acompañar al
catecúmeno/candidato a través de las etapas de preparación para los
sacramentos de iniciación.
1. Los infantes deben ser bautizados al poco tiempo después de nacer, sin
embargo, se requiere un tiempo suficiente para la instrucción apropiada.
2. Los niños que tengan siete años de edad o mayores deben recibir
instrucción en la Iglesia antes de ser bautizados (cf. Bautismo de adultos)
3. El Lugar común para el bautismo es la Iglesia Parroquial de los padres.
4. Uno de los padres o el tutor legal deben pedir el bautismo.
5. Debe de haber la firme convicción de que el niño bautizado va a ser
educado en la religión católica.
6. Los padrinos deben haber recibido los sacramentos de Bautismo,
Confirmación y la Santa Eucaristía, tener por lo menos 16 años de edad
y practicar la fe católica para que puedan dar ejemplo de una buena vida
católica. Normalmente hay dos padrinos un hombre y una mujer. Si son
pareja deberán estar casados por la Iglesia Católica.
7. Un bautizado no-católico no puede ser padrino pero puede ser un testigo
oficial para el bautismo siempre y cuando haya un padrino católico.
8. El bautismo no se concederá hasta que los papás y padrinos hayan
recibido la instrucción pre-bautismal. Las responsabilidades de los padres
y padrinos deben ser verificadas, así como la preparación para la
celebración del rito del bautismo.celebración del rito del bautismo.
POL¸TICA DIOCESANA PARA LA RECEPCIŁN DE LA COMUNIŁN Y PENITENCIA
niño pueda distinguir claramente entre los dos sacramentos. La catequesis
inicial de la penitencia debe preceder a la recepción de la Primera
Comunión. La recepción de la Primera Confesión debe estar separada por
varios meses de la recepción de la Primera Comunión.
Se requiere una catequesis de preparación de dos años. Se recomienda
que los padres de los niños también asistan al programa de catequesis y
preparación doctrinal.
La catequesis inicial para la recepción del sacramento de la penitencia
debe ser aparte de la catequesis para la Primera Comunión para que el
POL¸TICA DIOCESANA PARA RECEPCIŁN DEL SACRAMENTO DE CONFIRMACIŁN
Los candidatos a la confirmación deben tener por lo menos 16 años de
edad al momento que él o ella reciba el Sacramento de la Confirmación
sin importar el grado escolar. Se requiere una preparación de dos años
de catequesis que debe incluir elementos de Estudio bíblico, servicio
comunitario y liturgia.
El padrino del candidato debe actuar como un verdadero testigo
de Cristo y cumplir fielmente con las obligaciones inherentes a este
sacramento. La Iglesia recomienda que los padrinos de confirmación sean
los mismos padrinos que el candidato tuvo en su bautismo.
El padrino debe ser católico, confirmado, haber recibido el sacramento
de la Sagrada Eucaristía, tener por lo menos 16 años de edad y tener la
intención de llevar a cabo las obligaciones de padrino. Es recomendable
que el que tomó el papel de padrino en el bautismo sea padrino de
confirmación.
Los padres no pueden ser padrinos de sus hijos, pero pueden
presentarlos para el sacramento.

POL¸TICA DIOCESANA CONCERNIENTE AL ENTIERRO
CAN. 1176.1 A los fieles cristianos que han muerto se les debe
celebrar un funeral en la Iglesia de acuerdo con las normas eclesiásticas.
DIRECTRICES REFERENTES A LA CREMACIŁN
A pesar de que ahora la cremación es permitida, la enseñanza católica
continúa haciendo hincapié en la preferencia del entierro o inhumación
del cuerpo de un difunto. Cuando se elije la cremación por serias razones,
el Obispo de nuestra diócesis ha promulgado las siguientes normas.
CAN. 1176.2 Los funerales en la Iglesia deben celebrarse de acuerdo
a las normas de los libros litúrgicos. En estos ritos de los funerales, la
Iglesia obtiene para los difuntos, la ayuda espiritual y honra sus cuerpos y
al mismo tiempo les proporciona a los vivos el consuelo de la esperanza.
CAN. 1176.3 La Iglesia recomienda encarecidamente que se conserve
la piadosa costumbre de enterrar (sepultar) el cadáver de los difuntos;
sin embargo, no prohíbe la cremación, a no ser que haya sido elegida
por razones que sean contrarias a las enseñanzas Cristianas.
1.
El cuerpo del difunto debe estar presente para los ritos funerarios;
2.
Cuando las circunstancias no permitan la presencia del cuerpo en la
liturgia del funeral, lo mas apropiado será que las cenizas estén
presentes para el desarrollo pleno de los ritos funerarios; puestos
(depositados) en un “recipiente digno” en el lugar usualmente
ocupado por el ataúd.
3.
Como de ordinario, la liturgia del funeral debe ser celebrada en el
emplo;
4.
Las cenizas deben ser enterradas o depositadas con reverencia en un
cementerio o en un mausoleo. (La práctica de esparcir las cenizas en
el mar, desde el aire, o en la tierra, o conservarlas en la casa de u
familiar, no va de acuerdo con la práctica de la Iglesia.)
5.
En medida de lo posible, el lugar del sepulcro debe ser marcado con
una placa o piedra recordando al difunto.
DIRECTRICES DIOCESANAS
Como regla general, los católicos deben ser enterrados en cementerios
católicos. Algunas excepciones son
A)
Ser dueño en buena fe de una tumba en un cementerio secular
(por ejemplo, un converso que haya comprado una tumba antes de su
conversión);
B)
Entierro de un veterano en un cementerio nacional;
C)
Cuando no haya un cementerio católico disponible.
Una persona no-católica puede ser sepultada en un cementerio católico si
él o ella es miembro de una familia Católica, por ejemplo, miembros de un
matrimonio mixto o familiares cercanos de un Católico.
CREMACIÓN: Se necesita consultar al sacerdote parroquial antes de
completar los arreglos para la cremación y entierro.
REGLAS GENERALES DE AYUNO Y ABSTINENCIA
CAN. 1251 Abstenerse de comer carne debe guardarse todos los viernes
de Cuaresma. El ayuno y la abstinencia se guardarán el miércoles de
Ceniza y el Viernes Santo.
CAN. 1249 Todos los fieles, cada uno a su modo, están obligados por ley
divina a hacer penitencia; sin embargo, para que todos se unan en alguna
práctica común de penitencia, se han fijado unos días penitenciales, en los
que se dediquen los fieles de manera especial a la oración, realicen obras
de piedad y de caridad y se nieguen a sí mismos, cumpliendo con mayor
fidelidad sus propias obligaciones y, sobre todo, observando el ayuno y la
abstinencia, a tenor de los cánones que siguen.
CAN. 1252 La ley de la abstinencia obliga a los que han cumplido catorce
años; la del ayuno, a todos los mayores de edad (18 años), hasta el inicio
de sesenta años. Cuiden sin embargo los pastores de almas y los padres de
que también se formen en un auténtico espíritu de penitencia quienes, por
no haber alcanzado la edad, no están obligados al ayuno o a la abstinencia.
CAN. 1250 En la Iglesia universal, son días y tiempos penitenciales todos
los viernes del año y el tiempo de cuaresma.
