Parish Mission Statement

We are a family united in our Catholic Faith that welcomes all God’s children forming

disciples by continuing Christ’s mission of Love, Service, and Education.

Misión de Nuestra Parroquia

Somos una familia unida en nuestra Fe Católica que recibe a todos los hijos de Dios

formando discípulos y continuando con la misión de Cristo de Amar,

Servir y Educar.

El Bautismo del Señor

La Navidad termina con la Fiesta en honor del Bautismo del Señor; es otra

manifestación de Dios por medio de su Hijo. Ahora el profeta Isaías nos muestra al Siervo de Dios en quien se complace: “Miren a mi siervo, a

quien sostengo, a mi elegido, en quien tengo mis complacencias. En él he

puesto mi espíritu para que haga brillar la justicia sobre las naciones.” No queda más que agradecer el inmenso amor de Dios por nosotros. ¿Como no

apreciar el ser hijos/hijas de Dios por el bautismo? Desde que nos bautiza-

ron, sea pequeño o grande, Dios espera que al menos estemos seguros de

que tenemos un Padre amoroso y compasivo, que se alegra con nosotros. La

lectura del Libro de los Hechos de los Apóstoles ayuda a comprender que

“Dios no hace distinción de personas, sino que acepta al que… practica la

justicia.”

Está Fiesta es similar a Pentecostés, pero, en otra forma de manifestación del Espíritu Santo. Juan, lo explica claramente cuando dice: “Es cierto que

yo bautizo con agua, pero ya viene otro más poderoso que yo, a quien no

merezco desatarle las correas de sus sandalias. El los bautizará con el Es-píritu Santo y con fuego.” Bien, ahora cabe la pregunta para reflexión per-

sonal: ¿Qué acciones hago para complacer a Dios? ¿Hay fuego en mi cora-

zón de tal manera que arde en buenas obras? Fijémonos en la humildad de Juan Bautista; el reconocio que su ministerio tenía que disminuir para que

el ministerio de Jesús brillara y se expandiera. ¿Crees tú que los lideres

actuales en las parroquias hacen lo mismo que Juan?
