Por favor recuerde notificar a la oficina de la parroquia su nueva dirección y numero telefónico. Varios sobres dirigidos a parroquianos que se han cambiado de casa han sido devueltos por el Servicio Postal, esto hace que la parroquia incurra en gastos extra de correo. ¿Se viste usted Adecuadamente para la Misa? Preparación Para Bautismo en Español Las instrucciones para papas y padrinos serán el 7 de Mayo a las 7:00 p.m. en la oficina de la parroquia. Los padrinos ya deben haber recibido los sacramentos de Confirmación y Primera Comunión, y si son casados deben serlo en el Sacramento de la Iglesia Católica. Este programa es obligatorio para quienes no lo hayan tomado antes. Seria muy bueno tomarlo durante el embarazo. Para reservaciones llamar a la oficina 665-8933. Los niños no son admitidos a la clase porque distraen la sesion, por favor no los traiga. Atuendo en la Misa Es de buena educación vestirse bien para la Misa. Se evita usar prendas rotas, o prendas especialmente reveladoras o ajustadas. Pantalones cortos (shorts) no son ropa adecuada para la Misa. Dichos atuendos pueden distraer a otros, o incluso demostrar falta de respeto hacia Dios y a la iglesia. Cuando entramos a la iglesia o asistimos a la Misa, estamos en la presencia de nuestro Dios. Demostremos una actitud de modestia y recogimiento. Primeros Viernes Iniciando en Noviembre cada Primer Viernes del mes tendremos la misa de 8:30 a.m. y le seguirá la Adoración hasta las 6:30 p.m. con una solemne Bendición del Santísimo Sacramento y Misa pro-vida. (La Misa pro-vida de los primeros sábados esta suprimida). Esta nueva Misa dará a los fieles dos oportunidades para recibir la comunión y poder así observar esta devoción. Los demás viernes del mes la adoración al Santísimo sacramento se extenderá hasta las 7:00 p.m. El Ministerio de Elizabeth en San Vicente esta aquí para apoyar a las mujeres cuando un niño nace o es adoptado y también comparte el dolor cuando falla la infertilidad, aborto, adopción, o cuando muerte el babe. También tenemos una línea active de oración que entra en acción cunado se necesita oraciones . Por favor, llame a la oficina parroquial o Andrea Wyatt al 669-9884 para aliento y apoyo durante este tiempo especial. E.
