R.C.I.A. – A Community Ministry
RCIA is the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults. The Second Vatican Council established this rite to be the process through which adults become Catholics and are welcomed into a parish community. RCIA is referred to as a
process because it is a spiritual journey, not simply a series of classes. It is
based primarily on experience and spiritual growth rather than academic or
intellectual study. During this journey, there are meetings, discussions, and
at certain stages, specific liturgical rites. Any unbaptized person, as well as
any baptized person in a Christian faith other than Catholicism, may participate in this process. We also extend this invitation to those who have not
been fully initiated in the Catholic faith: with the sacraments of Baptism, First
Eucharist and Confirmation.
Inquiries come to RCIA for many reasons. Some are curious about the
Church because of conversations with a friend. Others may want to know
more about our Catholic faith and traditions because they have been invited
by someone to do so. Others may be interested in joining the Church because one spouse in a family is Catholic and the family wishes to worship
together. Others may feel drawn to the Catholic faith in answer to God’s
call.
God’s call manifests itself in so many mysterious ways, even when you and I
are moved to invite someone to come to church for mass with us.
The Parish Finance Committee has recommended we
take up a second collection on the First Sunday of every
month beginning June 2014, in order to make this goal.
We thank all who have generously contributed in the
past and urge you, to please join in our efforts to help
reach our goal this year.
Thank You!!!
PARISH UPDATE — AUGUST 2014

VIGÉSIMO TERCER DOMINGO DEL TIEMPO ORDINARIO
Reflexiones del Párroco:
Los estudiosos señalan las muchas maneras en que el Evangelio de San Mateo está preocupado con temas que
marcaron la vida de la comunidad
Cristiana antigua durante los últimos años del primer
siglo. El pasaje de hoy se dirige a la vida interna de la
comunidad. El poder de la comunidad de 'atar' o
'desatar' se refiere al tema de cómo manejar conflictos
internos que surgen entre los discípulos de Jesús. San
Mateo aconseja paciencia y un esfuerzo pastoral para
conquistar a un miembro desobediente. Esta suposición
de dos caras, espera que siempre sea posible la conversión por parte del pecador, y la reconciliación sea
siempre la meta.
La primera lectura del profeta Ezequiel tiene un énfasis
similar en la responsabilidad personal y la verdadera
posibilidad de conversión y reconciliación. Ezequiel estaba escribiendo en un momento en la historia Judía
cuando el sentimiento de culpa corporativa y castigo
era muy fuerte. A los exiliados en Babilonia, Ezequiel
quería enfatizar que su destino no fue simplemente la
culpa de los demás que habían violado el Pacto. Por el
contrario, el Profeta exhorta a sus oyentes a tomar responsabilidad por sus propias faltas, de arrepentirse y
poner en marcha la conversión que eventualmente los
llevará de regreso a la Tierra Prometida. Como Jesús en
el Evangelio, la intención de Ezequiel es recuperar el
pecador y ver a la comunidad unida de nuevo a través
de un proceso de reconciliación.

a la generación que viene.
La ‘Campaña para Arreglar la Casa de Dios” continúa en la reparación y el mantenimiento. Gracias a ustedes por su apoyo y generosidad. El próximo trabajo de “Arreglar las puertas de acero del
Templo” esta en nuestra consideración. El estimado costo era
$40,000.00.

sitio web: www.Allsoulschurchssf.org/content/stewardship.

último informe financiero hemos gastado $ 395,086.07.
APELACIÓN ANUAL DEL ARZOBISPO DEL 2014
Cada año nuestro Arzobispo pide nuestra ayuda para apoyarlo en
operar las oficinas centrales de la Arquidiócesis a fin de coordinar
y administrar los recursos de diversas parroquias de la Arquidiócesis.
El costo de este esfuerzo se distribuye entre parroquias en nuestros tres condados de San Mateo, San Francisco y Marin. Nuestra
participación en el costo de este año es de $ 45,500.00.
Hasta la fecha hemos recibido $ 30,904.13 en efectivo, cheques y
tarjetas de crédito y $ 2,105.00 en la forma de promesas que ascienden a un total de $ 33,009.13 que es el 72.55% de nuestra
meta. Todavía faltan $ 12,490.87.
El Comité de Finanzas de la Parroquia ha recomendad que tomemos una segunda colecta el Primer Domingo de cada mes a partir
de Junio del 2014, para alcanzar esta meta.
Le damos las gracias a todos los que generosamente han contribuido en el pasado y pedimos que por favor se unan a nuestros
esfuerzos para ayudar a alcanzar nuestra meta este año.
¡Gracias!
R.I.C.A. – Un Ministerio de la Comunidad
RICA es el Rito de Iniciación Cristiana de Adultos.
El Consejo Vaticano II estableció este rito para ser
el proceso a través del cual adultos se convierten
en Católicos y son recibidos en una comunidad
parroquial. RICA se conoce como un proceso
porque es una jornada espiritual, no simplemente una serie
de clases. Es basada principalmente en experiencia y crecimiento espiritual en lugar de estudio académico o intelectual. Durante esta jornada, hay reuniones, debates y en
ciertas etapas, ritos litúrgicos específicos. Cualquier persona sin bautizo, así como cualquier persona bautizado en
una fe Cristiana que no sea Catolicismo, puede participar
en este proceso. También extendemos esta invitación a
aquellos que no se han iniciado plenamente en la fe Católica: con los sacramentos de Bautismo, Sagrada Eucaristía y
Confirmación.
Preguntas llegan a RICA por muchas razones. Algunos tienen curiosidad acerca de la Iglesia por conversaciones con
un amigo. Otros podrán desear saber más sobre nuestra fe
Católica y tradiciones porque ellos han sido invitados por
alguien para hacerlo. Otros pueden estar interesados en
unirse a la Iglesia porque un cónyuge de la familia es Católico y la familia desea adorar juntos. Otras personas pueden
sentirse atraídos a la fe Católica en respuesta al llamado de
Dios.
El llamado de Dios es manifestado de muchas maneras
misteriosos, incluso cuando usted y yo estamos movidos a
invitar a alguien a venir a la Iglesia para la Misa con nosotros.
