La Historia de Mission San Jose

The first officials of the Mission Village of San Jose, Juan and Francisco of the Pam-popas, Nicolas and Antonio of the Suliajames, and Alonzo of the Pastia, were members of 3 different, distinct groups later called Coa-huitecans. Coahuiltecans were never a tribe in the traditional sense, but a collection, a nacion, of hundreds of small scattered bands of hunters and gatherers who spoke a related language lat-er called Coahuilteco. These groups ranged in South Texas from the mouth of the Trinity Riv-er east of Houston to where the Pecos River empties into the Rio Grande [close to Langtry], and in the modern Mexico states of Northeast-ern Coahuila and Zacatecas, Northern San Luis Potosi, Tamaulipas, and Nuevo Leon.

In Transition It is with much gratitude but in sadness that we announce Fr. Jesus Aguirre, O.F.M. will be departing our parish. Fr. Jesus will be continuing his missionary ministry in Cuba.

Fr. Jesus gave his sabbatical year to us at Mission San Jose and we will be forever grateful and will certainly miss his spiritual guidance.

Vaya con Dios and thank you for being Christ to us! do not cease giving thanks for you, remembering you

in my prayers, Eph 1:16

Columban Fr. Bob Mosher will be speaking at Mission San Jose Catholic Church in San Antonio, TX, on the weekend of August 25 – 26, at all Masses. After many years on mission in Chile, Fr. Mosher currently lives and works in El Paso with Columban Border Ministries.

This year, 2018, Columban Missionaries celebrate the Centennial Year of our foundation. We minister in fourteen different countries mainly in Asia and around the Pacific Rim. Despite China government limitations on public worship, they spread the message of Christ in word and deed through education, spiritual formation, and service to the disabled. In Pakistan they minister among the deprived Catholics and engage in

dialog with Islam. They support the struggling church in Myanmar as that country emerges from decades of military dictatorship. Service to the poor, interreligious and intercultural dialog, promoting human rights, care for the environment, serving the disabled, and work with migrants are among their ministries in the Philippines, Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Fiji, Australia, New Zealand, Chile, Peru, Mexico, Ireland, Great Britain and the United States. They encourage young people to serve on mission as Columban priests, sisters, lay missionaries and associates and so spread the Good News of God’s love.

To learn more about the Columban Fathers, please visit our website at www.columbanmission.org. You can view current videos from the missions, engage in dialogue with the Columbans, read our magazine and sign up for our newsletter.

About the Columbans: The Missionary Society of St. Columban, also known as the Columban Fathers, is a Catholic missionary society that was founded in 1918 to proclaim and witness to the Good News of Jesus Christ. The Society seeks to establish the Catholic Church where the Gospel has not been preached, help local churches evangelize their laity, promote dialogue with other faiths, and foster among all baptized people an awareness of their missionary responsibility. The Society’s U.S. headquarters are based in Bellevue, Neb., which is south of Omaha.

Throughout 2018 we give thanks for one hundred years of cross-cultural mission, while preparing to embark on a new century of witnessing to God’s love and mercy to the ends of the earth.

Columban Fr. Bob Mosher estará hablando en la Iglesia Católica Misión San José en San Antonio, TX, en el fin de semana del 25 al 26 de Agosto en todas las Misas. Después de muchos años de misión en Chile, el p. Mosher actualmente vive y trabaja en El Paso con Columban Border Ministries.

Este año, 2018, los Misioneros Columbanos celebran el Centenario de nuestra fundación. Atendemos en catorce países diferentes principalmente en Asia y alrededor de la Cuenca del Pacífico. A pesar de las limitaciones del gobierno de China sobre el culto público, difunden el mensaje de Cristo en palabras y hechos a través de la educación, la formación espiritual y el servicio a los discapacitados. En Pakistán, ministran entre los católicos privados y dialogan con el Islam. Apoyan a la iglesia que lucha en Myanmar cuando ese país emerge de décadas de dictadura militar. Servicio a los pobres, diálogo interreligioso e intercultural, promoción de los derechos humanos, cuidado del medioambiente, servicio a las personas con discapacidad y trabajo con los migrantes se encuentran entre sus ministerios en Filipinas, Corea, Japón, Taiwán, Hong Kong, Fiji, Australia, Nueva Zelanda, Chile, Perú, México, Irlanda, Gran Bretaña y los Estados Unidos. Animan a los jóvenes a servir en misiones como sacerdotes, hermanas, misioneros laicos y asociados de Columbano, y así difundir las Buenas Nuevas del amor de Dios.

Para obtener más información sobre los Padres de Columban, visite nuestro sitio web en www.columbanmission.org. Puede ver videos actuales de las misiones, dialogar con Columbans, leer nuestra revista e inscribirse en nuestro boletín.

Acerca de los Columbanos: La Sociedad Misionera de San Columbano, también conocida como los Padres de San Columbano, es una sociedad católica misionera fundada en 1918 para proclamar y dar testimonio de las Buenas Nuevas de Jesucristo. La Sociedad busca establecer la Iglesia Católica donde no se ha predicado el Evangelio, ayudar a las iglesias locales a evangelizar a sus laicos, promover el diálogo con otras religiones y fomentar entre todos los bautizados una conciencia de su responsabilidad misionera. La sede de la Sociedad en los EE. UU. Tiene su sede en Bellevue, Nebraska, que se encuentra al sur de Omaha. A lo largo de 2018 damos gracias por cien años de misión transcultural, mientras nos preparamos para embarcarnos en un nuevo siglo de testimonio del amor y la misericordia de Dios hasta los confines de la tierra.
