DID YOU KNOW. . . The lost of a loved one is always a sorrowful experience, and letting go is often difficult. Many choose cremation as an option for burial which is allowed by the Catholic church, however, cremains (ashes) for a Catholic person must be reposed in an appropriate burial site at a cemetery. Ashes cannot be scattered, kept at home or divided amongst relatives and friends. Urn with the cremains may be brought to the Funeral Mass, but must be reposed in a timely fashion in a cemetery.

STEWARDSHIP S P Good and gracious God, a new year of grace is upon us, giving us impressions of crisp begin-nings new goals, a fresh sense of hope. Though we cling to our own expecta ons for the year ahead, we know you alone are the sovereign of our future, Lord of our lives, and the source of whatever good we may do. We thank you, O Lord, for the gi of the days and weeks you have entrusted to us. Teach us to be good stewards of our me ahead, that we go about our days keeping you at the center of our lives. In the midst of our daily pursuits and ac vi es, focus our eyes on the needs of others; help us respond with compassion to the poor; and open our hearts to a suffering world. We ask for a year of peace, a year that brings an end to hatred and strife, and a year where we find a deeper joy that can only be found in you. We ask this through Christ your Son who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, One God, forever and ever. Amen L O B S Dios bondadoso, Tú nos enviaste a Tu Hijo para mostrarnos el camino hacia . Concédenos la sabiduría para vivir sus Bienaventuranzas de acuerdo a los dones que nos han sido otorgados. Danos el valor para ser buenos corresponsables del Evangelio, y discípulos fervientes. Y muéstranos cómo reconocer, que por Su don de la Eucaris a hay un pan, y que nosotros somos un cuerpo; que ya no vivimos para nosotros mismos, sino en Jesucristo quien vive y reina con go y con el Espíritu Santo, un Dios por siempre y para siempre. Amén

FROM THE DESK OF DEACON RICHARD

After texting back and forth with his wife, the man jokingly commanded Siri to pass along this message: “You need to get back to work now; you have a husband to support.” What Siri sent was: “You need to get back to work now; you have a has-been to support.”

MORE ON THE SENIOR MINISTRY Over the past four years Ed Kolesar has built the Senior Ministry here at the Cathedral. The Senior Ministry is self supporting and has not required any funds to operate. This ministry has been able to provide gift cards to Senior that need some extra assistance. Ed needs your help as support volunteers to work at the Little Thrift Store in Sparks on Glendale Road. If you can help please contact the office and we will get your information to Ed so he can speak with you.

VOLUNTEER NEEDED TO KEEP UP THE WEB SITE AND THE APP ON E CATHOLIC.

We finally have the WEB site up and running and now need to have someone with experience to volunteer to maintain both our App and the WEB site. This is open to anyone who has completed confirma-tion. I would like to find someone who can keep it going and work on updating what has been started. If you have this talent, please contact Rocio or Richard at office@stacathedral.com

ENTRADA Caminaré en presencia del Señor. (2)

Amo al Señor porque escucha mi voz suplicante, porque inclina su oído hacia mi, el día que lo invoco.

Me envolvían redes de muerte, caí en tristeza y angustia, invoqué el nombre del Señor: Señor, salva mi vida.

El Señor es benigno y justo, nuestro Dios es compasivo, el Señor guarda a los sencillos, estando yo sin fuerzas me salvó.

Alma mía recobra tu calma que el Señor fue bueno contigo. Arrancó mi alma de la muerte, mis ojos de las lágrimas, mis pies de la caída.

SALMO Dichosos los que caminan en la voluntad del Señor.

OFERTORIO No hablaste de caminos, porque eres el camino, no hablaste de verdades porque eres la verdad;

no hablaste de la vida porque eres tu la vida, tu eres el camino, la vida y la verdad.

Camino verdad y vida, es la vida del Señor, desde que pobre nos nace en Belén, hasta que triunfa en su resurrección.

Camino verdad y vida es la vida de Jesús, desde que oculto nació en Nazaret hasta que dijo del mundo soy la luz.

Camino verdad y vida es la vida del Señor, desde que a todo exigió renunciar, hasta que a todos la vida nos dio.

Camino verdad y vida es la vida del Señor, desde que manda a todos a amar, hasta que exige el completo perdón.

COMUNIÓN Intro: mi-RE-mi (2)

Llevemos al Señor el vino y el pan. Llevemos al altar la viña, el trigal. El S e ñ o r nos dará, Él nos dará su amistad (2)

Llevemos al Señor pureza y amor. Llevemos al altar justicia, hermandad. El S e ñ o r nos dará, Él nos dará su amistad. (2)

Llevemos al Señor trabajo y dolor. Llevemos al altar ofrendas de paz. El S e ñ o r nos dará, Él nos dará su amistad. (2)

SALIDA Caminando juntos vamos a salir y nos despedimos con un breve adiós.

"Adiós" quiere decir: "Vaya usted con Dios” Mi corazón se alegra, contigo voy, Señor.

Vamos siempre a obscuras si nos falta el sol; vamos siempre sólos si nos falta Dios. (al estribillo)

¡Dios es buen amigo para caminar! Si El viene conmigo, que seguro andar. (al estribillo)

No camino solo, porque voy con Dios, y saludo a todos con un gran adiós. (al estribillo)
