Dear parishioners, come join us
at the
Missionaries of Charity Shelter,
724 N.W. 17 Street,
every 3rd Sunday of the month
to cook for and feed the
homeless men of Miami.
Don’t miss this beautiful
opportunity to serve God by
serving the poor.
The shelter opens for the
volunteers at 7:30 am but they
don’t start serving food to the
homeless until 9:30am.
There is a second food service
at 10:30 am and a third at
11:30am.
Those volunteers that get to the
shelter in the morning help
prepare and serve the food
during the first service.
You are welcomed to come at
any time or day of the week.
The shelter is closed on
Thursdays.
If you have any questions,
please do not
hesitate to contact me,
Jaime Murati, at:

Together, We Change Lives
A heartfelt THANK YOU to all who have made a commitment to the 2016 ABCD.
To date, 57 of our parish families have responded. However, we need the support
of ALL members of St. Thomas the Apostle if we are to be successful in reaching
our parish goal of $153,347.
Now is the time to make a return to the Lord for all HE has given us.
Even a small gift can make a difference in the lives of those in need.

Juntos, Transformamos Vidas
Sincero AGRADECIMIENTO a todos los que han hecho un compromiso con la
Campaña de ABCD del 2016. Hasta la fecha, 57 familias en nuestra parroquia han
respondido. Sin embargo, necesitamos de todos los miembros de St. Thomas the
Apostle para tener éxito en alcanzar nuestra meta parroquial de $153,347.
Ahora es el momento de recompensar al Señor por todo lo que Él nos ha dado.
Una pequeña contribución puede representar una gran diferencia en las vidas de
los más necesitados.

What is so great about
making a retreat?
We have drawn spiritual and academic life
from our parish and Catholic schools.
What return will we make of these gifts?
As the good steward of the Gospel, shall
we give to God sufficient return for our
gifts? Consider a life-culminating gift
through your will or trust. For more
information, contact the rectory or call the
Office of Planned Giving at (305) 762-1110
Hemos obtenido vida espiritual y
académica de nuestra parroquia y de las
escuelas católicas. ¿Cómo vamos a
devolver estos dones? Como buen
mayordomo del Evangelio, debemos dar a
Dios rendimiento suficiente por nuestros
dones. Considere hacer una donación que
sea como la culminación de todo lo que
hemos recibido por
medio de su testamento o fideicomiso.
Para obtener más información,
póngase en contacto con la rectoría o
llame a la Oficina de Donaciones
Planificadas al (305) 762-1110.
On a retreat, you’ll be free
from the distraction of your
daily routine. With your whole
self relaxed, you will be able to
open your heart and listen to
Jesus and the Holy Spirit. That is the deep
satisfaction, inner peace and joy you will find.
Take time out to make an Emmaus retreat. If you
haven’t registered yet, you still have time.
The retreat is held on our parish grounds at
St. Thomas the Apostle.
Cost is $125 (includes room, board and program).
Register after all Masses through February 21, 2016.
For more information, please contact
