Within our Church, we also have bishops who carry on Christ works for their respective diocese and we have priests who are named “pastors” as they are given the responsibility of leading a parish. It is with great joy that I announce that I have been appointed Pastor of Our Lady of Peace Parish effective July 1, 2016. With this appointment, Archbishop Gomez has given me the responsibility of leading our parish spiritually and administratively for the next 6 years. In essence, I am committing my life to serving this wonderful parish of Our Lady of Peace. As we look at the next six years, it is my hope that we all can commit ourselves to the great mission of our parish as we continue to serve God and one another. Please keep me in your prayers and know that you are always in mine. We also received word of another great announcement that I would like to share with you. Last Sunday was also World Day of Prayer for Vocations, Deacon Luis Espinoza, our seminarian and transitional deacon, has received his official call to the Sacred Order of Priest from Archbishop José H. Gomez. After many years of formation, Deacon Luis will be ordained a priest on Saturday, June 4th at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels. This news is a blessing for us as parish as we can claim one of the new priests as our own out of the 286 parishes in the archdiocese. Deacon Luis will be celebrating his First Mass of Thanksgiving on Sunday, June 5th at 2PM. All are invited to his Mass of Thanksgiving as we celebrate as a whole community. The mass will be in English and Spanish. This year, it was decided not to have Tiger Fest which was our Spring Fiesta in support of our school. In place of it, we will be having a Spring Pageant on Saturday, May 14th in the evening. This event consists of food, games, a raffle and a crowning of a king or queen amongst our students. All are invited to attend this great event in support of our parish school. Finally, please pray for our confirmation candidates who will be receiving the Sacrament of Confirmation on Saturday morning. May the Holy Spirit continue to guide then as faith -filled disciples of Christ. Our Lady of Peace… pray for us. Queridos Hermanos y Hermanas, El domingo pasado, celebramos como una Iglesia el Domingo del Buen Pastor reconociendo a Jesucristo como el pastor de todos nosotros, al que debemos escuchar y al que debemos seguir. Dentro de nuestra Iglesia, también tenemos obispos que prosiguen las obras de Cristo en sus respectivas diócesis y tenemos sacerdotes que son nombrados “pastores” cuando se les da la responsabilidad de guiar una parroquia. Con una gran alegría les anuncio que he sido nombrado Pastor de la Parroquia de Nuestra Señora de la Paz a partir del 1 de julio de 2016. Con este nombramiento, el Arzobispo Gómez me ha dado la responsabilidad de guiar nuestra parroquia espiritualmente y administrativamente por los próximos 6 años. Fundamentalmente, estoy comprometiendo mi vida para servir a esta maravillosa parroquia de Nuestra Señora de la Paz. Viendo hacia los próximos seis años, es mi esperanza que todos podamos comprometernos con la gran misión de nuestra parroquia para continuar sirviendo a Dios y unos a otros. Por favor recuérdenme en sus oraciones y sepan que ustedes están siempre en las mías. También recibimos noticia de otro gran anuncio que deseo compartir con ustedes. El domingo pasado también fue el Día Mundial de Oración por las Vocaciones, el Diácono Luis Espinoza, nuestro seminarista y diácono en transición, recibió oficialmente el llamado a la Orden Sagrada del Sacerdocio de parte del Obispo José H. Gómez. Después de muchos años de formación, el Diácono Luis será ordenado sacerdote el sábado 4 de junio en la Catedral de Nuestra Señora de los Ángeles. Estas noticias son una bendición para nosotros como parroquia ya que podemos reclamar a uno de los nuevos sacerdotes como nuestro entre las 286 parroquia en la arquidiócesis. El Diácono Luis estará celebrando su Primera Misa de Acción de Gracias el domingo , 5 de junio a las 2PM. Todos están invitados a esta Misa de Acción de Gracias que celebraremos como una comunidad. La misa será en ingles y español. Este año, se decidió no tener el Festival del Tigre el cual era la Fiesta de Primavera en apoyo de nuestra escuela. En lugar de eso, tendremos un Desfile de Primavera el sábado 14 de mayo por la noche. Este evento consiste de comida, juegos, una rifa y coronación de un rey o reina de alguno de los estudiantes. Todos están invitados a asistir a este gran evento en apoyo de nuestra escuela parroquial. Por último, por favor oren por nuestros candidatos de la confirmación quienes estarán recibiendo el Sacramento de Confirmación el sábado por la mañana. Que el Espíritu Santo continúe guiándolos como fieles discípulos de Cristo. Nuestra Señora de la Paz…ruega por nosotros.

We will be raising funds to help Father Ken's Ministry of the Water Project for the People of his Native Village in Nigeria, Africa.

YOUR CALLS NEEDED TO STOP TAX PAYER FUNDED OF PHYSICIAN ASSISTED SUICIDE In October, physician assisted suicide became legal in California. Currently, AB 2810 has been introduced in the California legislature and will be voted on shortly. The bill would require California tax payers to pay for the lethal drug used for physician assisted suicide. As Catholics we believe life to be sacred from conception to natural death. This bill violates our religious freedom and forces us to pay for something that goes against our conscience and beliefs. Your phone calls to assembly members are urgently needed. Please call this week to voice your opposition and request a NO vote on AB 2810. For more information on this bill visit: www.cacatholic.org/end-of-life-policy Assembly District 45 – call Mathew Dababneh (818) 904-3840 (Northridge, Reseda, Encino, Tarzana, Calabasas, Hidden Hills, West Hills, Canoga Park, Bell Canyon and Chatsworth) Assembly District 46 – call Adrin Nazarian (818) 376-4246 (Studio City, Sherman Oaks, Van Nuys, Valley Glen, Panorama City, Lake Balboa, North Hills) Preventing child sexual abuse is a partnership. It requires education, training, and action from parents, other adults, organizations, and children. As adults, we need to learn to recognize other adults who are a risk to kids – ours and the others in the community. April is Child Abuse Prevention Month, which gives us all an opportunity to learn more about what the Archdiocese of Los Angeles is doing to prevent child sexual abuse from happening.
