A STEWARDSHIP PARISH

My parish is composed of people just like me. I help make it what it is. It will be friendly, if I am. It will be holy, if I am. Its pews will be filled, if I help fill them.

It will do great work, if I work. It will be prayerful, if I pray. It will make generous gifts to many causes, if I am a generous giver.

It will bring others into its worship, if I invite and bring them. It will be a parish of loyalty and love, of fearlessness and faith, of compassion, charity and mercy, if I, who will make it what it is, am filled with these same things.

Therefore, with the help of God, I now dedicate myself to the task of being all the things that I want my parish to be. Amen.

Queridos Hermanos y Hermanas en Cristo:

Al celebrar en octubre el Mes de Respeto por la Vida, se nos invita a reflexionar sobre el tema para este año: "Movidos por la Misericordia". Este tema nos recuerda nuestra llamada a ser misericordiosos en la luz de la misericordia de Dios que día a día nos muestra.

En este mes dedicado al respecto y a la dignidad de la vida humana, les invito a que se comprometan a ser instrumentos de la misericordia. Con el ejemplo y las oraciones de nuestra recién canonizada Santa Teresa de Calcuta, disciernan en oración como pueden ser compasivos con los demás, atendiendo especialmente a los que han olvidado el amor y las bendiciones de Dios; los ancianos, los enfermos, el migrante, el abusado, los encarcelados y los no nacidos. También sigamos trabajando unidos para proteger la santidad y dignidad de la vida humana en cada etapa. Puesto que Dios nos enseno su misericordia, vayan a nuestras comunidades y sean instrumento de esa misericordia para los demás.

En nuestra solidaridad a este compromiso en común, les invito especialmente que se unan a mi como testigos del regalo de vida mediante la oración en la Marcha por la Vida en Raleigh, el 21 de enero del 2017 y en la Marcha Nacional por la Vida en Washington D.C., el 27 de enero del 2017.

Estén seguros que los recordare en mis intenciones. Que nuestro Señor Jesús los bendiga con un corazón misericordioso, y que María, nuestra Madre, les proteja y guie siempre.

Sinceramente en Cristo,

Reverendísimo Michael F. Burbidge Obispo de Raleigh

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

As we celebrate Respect Life Month this October, we are invited to reflect on the theme for this year, "Moved by Mercy." This theme reminds us of our call to show mercy, in the Light of God's mercy shown first and daily to us.

In this month dedicated to the respect and dignity of human life, I invite you to commit yourself to be an instrument of that mercy. With the example and prayers of our newly canonized Saint Teresa of Calcutta, prayerfully discern how you can bring compassion to all, with a special attention to those who may have forgotten His love and blessings; the aged, the infirmed, the migrant, the abused, the imprisoned, and the unborn. Let us also continue to work together for the protection of the sacredness and dignity of all human life at every stage. As God has first shown us His mercy, go out into our communities and be an instrument of that mercy to all.

In our solidarity to this common commitment, I especially invite you to join me as we witness to the gift of life through our prayer at the March for Life in Raleigh on January 21, 2017, and the National March for Life in Washington D.C. on January 27, 2017.

Be assured of a continued remembrance among my intentions. May Our Lord Jesus bless you with a merciful heart, and may Mary Our Mother watch over and guide you always.

Sincerely in Christ,

Most Reverend Michael F. Burbidge, Bishop of Raleigh
