Dear Friends,
Our beloved Catholic Church has been bruised and battered these last few weeks with the release of the Pennsylvania
Grand Jury Report, the sordid details of Theodore Cardinal McCarrick’s behavior, and other news of terrible failures of
some of our leaders. It is not an easy time to be a Catholic; times like this remind us that our faith is in the Lord Jesus
and not fallible human beings.
In the midst of this trying time, Archbishop Sartain invites us—even as we continue to work for safety, healing, and
accountability—to pray together as God’s people in Western Washington a novena prayer to Mary, Mother of the
Church. I have included this prayer in today’s bulletin. A limited number of novena prayer cards will also be available at
the back of our Valley churches. Though many of us will pray this prayer at home or in our own personal prayer times, I
also ask that we conclude all of our Sunday and weekday Valley Masses with this prayer from October 4-14.
Yours in Christ,
Fr. Tom
NOVENA PRAYER TO MARY,
MOTHER OF THE CHURCH
Mary, Mother of the Church, we stand before you
shaken by the scandal and division
in the Church that we love.
We pray for victims of abuse, whose trust was
betrayed and whose innocence was shattered
by members of the clergy.
We pray for those who suffering was ignored and for
those who were silenced or disbelieved.
We pray for Church leaders,
that by putting the needs of the vulnerable first,
by acting with transpaarency,
and by always holding themselves
accountable to God and to the People of God
they may regain the trust that has been broken.
We pray for ourselves,
that the darkness and confusion we feel
may give way to light.
May we find the way to justice, unity, healing,
and hope, through your Son, Jesus, our Lord.
Amen.
Mary, refuge of sinners, pray for us.
Mary, comfort of the troubled, pray for us.
Mary, Mother of the Church, pray for us.

September 30, 2018 26th Sunday in Ordinary Time
“Anyone who gives you a cup of water to drink because you belong to Christ, amen, I say to you, will surely not lose his reward.” (MARK 9:41)
Does your life reflect the life of Jesus? Remember, we were made in His image. We tend to forget this. When others see you, do they see the face of Jesus? When you look at others, do you see the face of Jesus in them?

30 de septiembre de 2018 26º domingo del tiempo ordinario
"Cualquiera que te dé a beber un vaso de agua porque perteneces a Cristo, amén, te digo que no perderás su recompensa" (MARCOS 9:41). ¿Tu vida refleja la vida de Jesús? Recuerde, fuimos hechos a Su imagen. Tendemos a olvidar esto. Cuando los demás lo ven, ¿ven el rostro de Jesús? Cuando miras a los demás, ¿ves el rostro de Jesús en ellos?
Queridos amigos,
Nuestra querida Iglesia Católica ha sido golpeada y maltratada estas últimas semanas con el lanzamiento del Gran Jurado
de Pensilvania, los detalles sórdidos del comportamiento del Cardenal Theodore McCarrick y otras noticias de terribles
fracasos de algunos de nuestros líderes. No es un momento fácil para ser católico; momentos como este nos recuerdan
que nuestra fe está en el Señor Jesús y no en seres humanos falibles.
En medio de este momento difícil, el Arzobispo Sartain nos invita, incluso mientras seguimos trabajando por la
seguridad, la curación y rendición de cuentas: orar juntos como pueblo de Dios en el oeste de Washington, una novena
oración a María, Madre de la Iglesia. He incluido esta oración en el boletín de hoy. Un número limitado de tarjetas de
oración novena también estarán disponibles en la parte posterior de nuestras iglesias del Valle. Aunque muchos de
nosotros haremos esta oración en casa o en nuestro tiempo personal de oración, también les pido que concluyamos todas
nuestras Misas del Valle los domingos y los días de la semana con esta oración del 4 al 14 de octubre.
Tuyo en Cristo,
P. Tom
NOVENA DE ORACION A MARIA,
MADRE DE LA IGLESIA
María, Madre de la Iglesia, estamos frente a ti sacudidos por el escándalo y la división en la Iglesia que amamos Oramos por las víctimas de abuso, cuya confianza fue traicionada y cuya inocencia se hizo añicos por miembros del clero. Oramos por aquellos cuyo sufrimiento fue ignorado y para aquellos que fueron silenciados o no creyeron. Oramos por los líderes de la Iglesia, que al anteponer las necesidades de los vulnerables, actuando con transparencia, y siempre sosteniéndose responsables ante Dios y ante el Pueblo de Dios Que ellos pueden recuperar la confianza que se ha roto. Oramos por nosotros mismos, que la oscuridad y la confusión que sentimos puedan dar paso a la luz. Que podamos encontrar el camino a la justicia, la unidad, la curación y la esperanza, a través de tu Hijo, Jesús, nuestro Señor Amén. María, refugio de los pecadores, ruega por nosotros. María, consuelo de los atribulados, ruega por nosotros. María, Madre de la Iglesia, ruega por nosotros. Imagen: La Madre de los Dolores, Catedral St. James, Seattle

Brothers and sisters: If there is any encouragement in Christ, any solace in love, any participation in
the Spirit, any compassion and mercy, complete my joy by being of the same mind, with the same
love, united in heart, thinking one thing. Do nothing out of selfishness or out of vainglory; rather,
humbly regard others as more important than yourselves, each looking out not for his own interests,
but also for those of others. Have in you the same attitude that is also in Christ Jesus. Phil 2:1
30 de septiembre de 2018 Vigésimo sexto domingo del tiempo ordinario del año B
Hermanos y hermanas: Si hay algún aliento en Cristo, cualquier consuelo en el amor, cualquier
participación en el Espíritu, cualquier compasión y misericordia, completen mi alegría siendo de la
misma mente, con el mismo amor, unidos en el corazón, pensando una cosa . No hacer nada por
egoísmo o por vanagloria. más bien, humildemente considere a los demás como más importantes que
ustedes mismos, cada uno mirando no por sus propios intereses, sino también por los de los demás. Tengan en ustedes la
misma actitud que también está en Cristo Jesús. Phil 2: 1
