LITURGY & MUSIC
Jaime’s Music Notes
Notes About Music In The Church – Part 2.
We have now begun our Season of Lent. I would like to
elaborate a bit on the Welcome Sheets that we begin using this
season. The Welcome Sheets will give you important
information for you to participate in the Mass and also on
occasion, will let you know of important events happening in our
parish, or perhaps if there will be a 2nd collection or an
important activity in the courtyard after Mass.
The Welcome Sheet will tell you which Sunday of the liturgical
year we will be celebrating and it will give you the list of
antiphons and songs for your particular Mass. In general, we will
have a list of songs for the Saturday and Sunday Morning
Masses; at Noon we usually change some of our songs, so the
Noon Mass will have a separate list of songs, and of course, the
Mass at 2pm is in Spanish, so it will show a different list for that
Mass too.
One new thing that the Welcome Sheets will have is the text of
the Antiphons. These are short scriptures that the Roman
Missal has which are to be sung at the Entrance procession,
and at the Communion procession. You will find those texts in
the sheet. Of course the most important thing as we enter Lent
is that we would like to observe a bit more silence during our
Masses, so we will not be announcing the numbers of the songs
anymore. Those numbers will be in the Welcome Sheets and
you will have to refer to the sheet in order to find the song in the
hymnal.
Have a blessed week

Reflexiones de Jaime
Ideas Acerca De La Música En La Iglesia – Segunda Parte.
Hemos ya comenzado la estación de la cuaresma. Quisiera
explicar un poco más estas Hojitas de Alabanza que ahora
estamos usando. La Hojita de Alabanza les dará importante
información para poder participar en la Misa y de vez en cuando
dará información acerca de alguna actividad importante en la
vida de la parroquia. Puede ser que haya una segunda colecta,
o tal vez alguna actividad en el patio de la Iglesia después de
Misa.
Las Hojitas de Alabanza nos indicarán cuál domingo del año
litúrgico celebramos y nos dará la lista de cantos que usaremos
en la Misa. En general, la hoja tendrá la lista de cantos para las
Misas del domingo en la mañana. A las doce, usualmente
cambiamos algunos cantos, por lo que habrá una lista separada
para la Misa de las doce; después estará la lista para la Misa en
español, y finalmente la de las cuatro de la tarde.
Otra cosa que se va a notar particularmente en la lista de las
2pm, es que vamos a cantar dos o tres aclamaciones en latín.
Desgraciadamente nuestro libro de Flor y Canto o nuestro libro
de Unidos en Cristo no tienen estos textos tradicionales; por lo
que nosotros vamos a tener que usar el libro en inglés para
estas aclamaciones particulares. El libro en inglés se llama
Breaking Bread (Partiendo el Pan), y tendremos que usarlo al
menos hasta que nos acostumbremos a cantar el Santo en
Latín (SANCTUS) y el Cordero de Dios (Agnus Dei). Poco a poco
espero que nos acostumbremos y que aprendamos estos
cantos de memoria. Pero por ahora vamos a tener que usar el
Flor y Canto para algunas cosas de la Misa y el libro Breaking
Bread para las aclamaciones en Latín.
Que tengan una semana llena de bendiciones.

THE TRINITY OF
STEWARDSHIP
A Stewardship Moment:
In today’s Gospel, Jesus urges his listeners to do two things: to
believe in the Good News and to repent. The steward is called
to repent: to acquire an openness to begin anew, to change
existing attitudes and habits, and to act with faith in the
Gospel. In this season of Lent, now is the time to ask
ourselves whether or not we truly believe in the Gospel; and if
we do, to what extent are we willing to change our prevailing
habits and be more faithful to the Gospel?

The Holy Cross Stewardship Committee fosters the mission of Holy Cross Catholic Church by
INFORMING the parish of ministries taking place, by INVITING people into new and existing
ministries, by SUPPORTING people in their ministries, by PROVIDING information regarding the
financial situation of the parish and to INCREASE financial support of the parish.
2015 Charity and Development Appeal
The Charity and Development Appeal (CDA)
provides each and every family the opportunity to
put their faith into action. Every gift makes a
difference. For example, $75 can provide an
opportunity for a pregnant woman to see her
unborn baby for the first time.
Our parish goal is 100% participation and $145,000.
Currently 25% or our parish has raised $35,807 toward our
goal. Please take time to make your gift today. Gifts can be
made online at www.diocesephoenix.org/cda or by completing
a pledge card. Thank you for your support of the Charity and
Development Appeal.
Our Lenten
Journey
Called to Be
“Islands of Mercy”
During Lent 2015, Pope Francis challenges us with this plea:
“How greatly I desire that all those places where the Church is
present may become islands of mercy in the midst of the sea
of indifference!”
For more than 80 years, Catholic Charities has provided these
“islands” for those in our community who struggle with
homelessness, violence, trafficking, lack of familial support or
parenting skills—and so many other barriers that hinder living a
life of dignity and abundance. Catholic Charities treats each
person as an unique, individual, created in the image of God!
We do this in the name of the Catholic community. This Lent
we are called to turn our hearts of stone into God’s own
merciful, loving and compassion heart.
! Prayer: Please pray for the Catholic Charities family this
year. This includes the more than 107,000 we serve, the
thousands of volunteers, hundreds of staff and the
community that supports the mission. Prayer lifts and
sustains us!
! Sacrifice: Please go to CatholicCharitiesAZ.org/blog and
join your life story with the stories of real people in our
communities. Let reading about these individuals touch
and heal your broken heart—knowing that when you risk
knowing others, entering into another’s life, that this is the
sacrifice God calls us to for shattering our worlds of
indifference.
! Charity: Let your sacrifice move you to giving of yourself in
a brand new way to a specialized cause in the name of the
Catholic faithful, such as helping veterans, homeless, sex
trafficking, foster kids and others.
At the end of the Pope’s Lenten message, he says, “The
answer to indifference is to pray, help others, and recognize
our need for God.”
Blessings on the journey!

Welcome to Holy Cross Catholic
Church!
If you are new to the parish, we want to get to know
you and serve you. Parish registration is the official
way to join the Holy Cross community. Registering
as a parishioner is as easy as completing an enrollment form and
faithfully contributing to the parish with your time, talent, and
treasure. Parish registration is expected for all who come to Holy
Cross on a regular basis and consider this their parish.
Registering is a statement of confidence and desire to take part in
the life and work of the parish. It allows us to communicate
information about parish events, sacramental preparation and
year end contribution statements. Registration forms are available
in the Parish Office and on our website at www.holycrossmesa.org
If you are currently a member of Holy Cross Church and have had
changes (i.e. address, telephone number, e-mail address, new
family members, etc.) or you have moved out of the area, please
contact the Parish Office as soon as possible to make the
changes.
Please continue to support our parish with your prayers, your
presence, and your talents.
Saint Vincent de Paul
Holy Cross Conference,
480-985-4259
The two fundamental sources of St. Vincent’s teaching are the
GOSPEL and LIFE. He wanted his followers to put the whole of
the Gospel into the whole of their lives, and he never wearied
of deepening both with all the faith that God had put into his
heart. That is why all that St. Vincent says to us has the
simplicity of our everyday life and the penetrating strength of
the Word of God.

RELIGIOUS EDUCATION: ELEMENTARY AND YOUTH FORMATION
God Bless our RCIA Catechumens
Congratulations to the Catechumens (the Elect) who have chosen to go forward to the Easter sacraments.
Over the past year, these 22 parishioners, ages 8 to 45, have been preparing to receive the sacraments of
Baptism, Confirmation, and Holy Communion at the Easter Vigil.
The Rite of Sending for Election for Catechumens will be held today, Sunday, February 22nd at the10:00 a.m. Mass. When the
parish community takes part in this discernment process, they continue to understand that it is the entire Church’s responsibility
and privilege of initiating new members. Following the mass, the Catechumens will travel to the Cathedral to celebrate the Rite of
Election with Bishop Thomas Olmsted. This rite gives public acknowledgement to the fact that God has “elected” or chosen these
people. Please continue to keep in prayer all those who are preparing to receive sacraments during the upcoming Easter season.

Trust 100% in God.
The impact of participating in a Cursillo can be shared by listening to others who have already made a
Cursillo. You may hear stories similar to: “It was overpowering, beautiful experience. Peaceful, deeply
moving. It touched my whole being. There was overwhelming peacefulness. It deepened my faith and made it more personal. It became
a way of Life. My faith became my priority. At night I took out the cross and held it in my hand and looked at it. I was changed. Suddenly
something happened to me that cannot be explained. I was filled with love and I knew that God loved me. I started to cry
and knew something happened. I knew why I was here and that I had a purpose. I realized that I was tied to others and
have a sense of awareness. My old self died and my new self is to see the loveable in each person and to see the
unlovelable as lovable. To see people as God sees them and not as I see the surface.”
Next Cursillos:
Men’s—March 5th—8th

Holy Cross Council No. 7904
“Do not stop praying as long as, by God's grace, the fire and
the water [i.e. fervor and tears] have not been exhausted, for
it may happen that never again in your whole life will you
have such a chance to ask for the forgiveness for your sins."
Saint John Climacus

PRAYER FOR HOLY CROSS PARISH
Lord, I ask your blessing on our community of Holy Cross Parish.
Send your peace into our families, especially those who are struggling in any particular way. Bless our youth and protect them
from harmful and destructive behavior. Help our young adults to recognize your will for them, and grant many vocations to the
religious life and the priesthood and the permanent diaconate from our parish for the future of our Church.
Bless those who live a single life with a deep sense of your love for them and your presence in their lives. Send your healing of body
and spirit into those who are suffering from any illness, especially those with chronic pain.
Comfort those who are close to death.
Bless our country and our world with peace and a profound sense of justice and respect for every human life from conception to natural death.
Let us rejoice in your love for each of us, whatever our circumstances, and may every one of us at Holy Cross do our part, through the intercession
of Mary, our Mother, and by the power of your grace, to build up the Kingdom of God on our earth.
We ask this through Christ, our Lord
Amen

La Campaña de Caridad y Desarrollo 2015
La Campaña de Caridad y Desarrollo (CDA)
provee a una y cada familia la oportunidad de
poner su fe en acción. Cada donación hace la
diferencia. Por ejemplo, $75 puede proveer una
oportunidad para una mujer embarazada de ver
su bebe en el vientre por primer vez.
Nuestra meta parroquial es de 100% participación y
$145,000. Hasta hoy, el 25% de nuestra parroquia ha
recaudado $35,807 de nuestra meta. Por favor temo un
tiempo para hacer su donación hoy. Las donaciones se
pueden hacer en www.diocesephoenix.org/cda o al completar
una tarjeta de donación. Gracias por su apoyo a la Campaña
de Caridad y Desarrollo.
3er Magno Congreso: en Xavier Prep College, 4710 Norte
Calle 5 Phoenix, con el Dr. Fernando Casanova, (EWTNEspañol), Alejandro Bermúdez, Padre Ernesto María Caro y
Padre Octavio Díaz. Entrada: $25. Inscripciones en línea o con
el líder catequético de la parroquia. Más:
catequesisfamiliarphx.org o (602) 354-2120.
Los Caballeros de Colón de la Iglesia de la
Santa Cruz estarán vendiendo boletos de su
Rifa Anual para apoyar a diferentes
localidades de caridad. La rifa se dará a cabo
el 16 de mayo. Hay premios desde diezmil
dólares hasta mil, y hay cuatro premios de
quinientos dólares. La mitad del dinero que se
colecta se regresa a la parroquia de la Santa Cruz. Los tiquetes
cuestan $5.00 cada uno o se pueden comprar cinco por $20.00.
Pueden consultar a cualquier miembro de los Caballeros de Colón
si tienen preguntas.
Ser un discípulo quiere decir estar constantemente listo para
traer el amor de Jesús a otros, y esto puede ocurrir sin esperar
y en cualquier sitio: en una calle, en una plaza, durante el
trabajo, en un camino.
—Evangelii Gaudium, “La Alegría del Evangelio” (127)
Para los padres de familia que inscriben a sus hijos para el
año escolar 2015-2016, por favor tengan en cuenta lo
siguiente: para recibir una reducción de la Taza de Matricula
Católica de la escuela, su párroco deberá determinar si su
familia cumple con el criterio definido por la parroquia sobre
miembros Inscritos, Activos y Participando. La definición de
“inscrito, activo y participando” variá por parroquia, pero
normalmente incluye asistiendo a Misa en forma regular asi
como contribuyendo al sostenimiento de la parroquia por
medio de su ofrenda en sobre y apoyando a la vida ministerial
de la parroquia. Si tiene alguna duda sobre el estatus de su
familia, por favor comuníquese con su párroco directamente.
(Nota: Todos los alumnos de la secundaria de las escuelas
diocesanas quien reciben la taza reducida de la matricula del
año entrante, deberán tener su estatus verificado por su
párroco antes de que puedan inscribirse como Católicos.)
Domingo
Misa en Español por Televisión: La Santa Misa en español es
transmitida en vivo a las 8 a.m. todos los Domingos desde la
parroquia de Santa Maria en Chandler por KPHE-TV 44 (Cox
405, Prism 044), seguido por su programa local católico
“Cultura y Fe”, con Cristofer Pereyra.
Hay Que Registrarse En La Parroquia
Da muchas ventajas el registrarse (matricularse) en la
parroquia donde uno asiste a Misa. Los datos personales son
privados Y no los compartimos con nadie. Luego, cuando su
familia necesita sacramentos, o matricularse para los
programas de educación religiosa, o si va a ser padrino en un
bautizo, los procedimientos se pueden lograr rápidamente y
fácilmente.
Venga a la oficina de la parroquia y llene el formulario para
registrarse en la Iglesia de la Santa Cruz.
