Mission Statement

We are a Catholic community placing our faith and hope in the most Sacred Heart of Jesus and in the Blessed Virgin Mary and Saint Joseph. Nurtured with that faith and hope, we aim to transform our community into one that is constantly acting out of love, constantly enabling one another, constantly building the kingdom of heaven here in this beautiful Valley. For us, our traditions and values are very important in saying who we are, and who we want to be; faith-filled, peace loving and enriching.

THE EPIPHANY OF THE LORD JANUARY 5, 2014

PRAYER REQUEST: Let us remember in our prayers: All Military Personnel. A PRAYER FOR MILITARY

O God of Mercy, we beg you now to protect in a special way those who are fighting for us and for the country we love. Bless them and take care of them. If they are tired, give them strength. If they are wounded and suffering, give them com-fort. If they are lonely, touch them with Your gentle hand and let them know that You are near them. And if it be Your holy will that they should give up their lives for us. Grant them a good death and a home with You in Heaven. Hasten the day, dear Lord, when we may all enjoy the blessings of peace once more. Amen. Blessed Mother, pray for them. St. Joseph, pray for them . St. Benedict, pray for them. ******PLEASE LET US KNOW WHEN NAMES NEED TO BE REMOVED FROM PRAYER LIST.******** Celine Maestas, Bertha & Michelle Romero, Claudina Jaramillo, Mel Martinez, Leila Valdez, Alberta Salazar, Sam & Melissa Trujillo, Ellie Gallegos, Florida Sena, Mary Frances Nieto, Lucrecia Bustos, Baby Rafael Garcia, Joseph Norris, Rose Lovato, Lucy Manzanares, Sarah Valdez, Debbie Pearcy, Richard VanSwearingen, Marie Mill-sap, Santiago Parra, Carol Blea, Angelina Sanchez, Lala Gonzales, J.

BLESSED SACRAMENT HOURS THAT NEED TO BE FILLED: NIGHTIME HOURS: Sunday: 12:00 A.M. to 1:00 A.M. Monday: 2:00 A.M. to 3:00 A.M. Tuesday: 8:00 A.M. to 9:00 A.M.

Shut-Ins: For those who are confined at home, extra-ordinary ministers of Holy Communion are available to bring Communion to you. Notify the Parish Office if a member of your family is seri-ously ill at home and is in need of the Sacrament. Call the Parish Office 753-4225.

Rejoice in TODAY - STOP AND PRAISE! Each day of the year is truly a gift from God. How often we forget this! We become enmeshed in the problems of every-day life and instead of rejoicing and giving thanks for the gift, we are cross and irritable. The toast is burnt, we’re out of milk, the children are arguing! Rush, rush, rush - there’s hardly time to think of God, much less to praise Him. And yet - this is God’s day, the only one like it! Stop and praise! Let the toast be your burnt offering, breakfast without milk an exercise in self denial and the argument an occasion to practice brotherly love. It doesn’t really take any extra time, just a change in atti-tude! This is the day the Lord has made! Be glad & rejoice!

~Joan Zrilich, Living Words

Lord, every nation on earth will adore you ~ Psalm 72
