Pastor’s Column
Dear “Our Lady of Lourdes” and
“ St. Michael” Parish Family,
Those of you who were present
at our Masses last weekend, know
CONFESSIONS
that I related the great joy that I
SATURDAY – 9 - Noon
BEFORE VIGIL MASS - 4:15 PM feel at being named your new
Pastor. It is a challenge that I
ROSARY
look forward to with great
SATURDAY – 4:30 PM
anticipation and I humbly ask for
your help in adapting to my new
ADORATION
position. I resolve with all my
WEDNESDAY – 3-6:15
SATURDAY – 9 - Noon
heart to be as accessible as I
possibly can in every facet of the
ST. MICHAEL
ministries hereby entrusted to me.
MASS SCHEDULE
I am excited to get to know
SUNDAY – 8:00 AM
everyone in our Parish
Communities. I ask you to please
CONFESSIONS & ROSARY tell me your names repeatedly
BEFORE MASS – 7:30 AM
until I learn them! It is an
exciting time of transition for me,
and I hope for all of you as well.
In keeping with our Gospel this
week, Jesus revised an old
commandment to make it read,
“You shall love the Lord, Your
God, with all your heart….and your
neighbor as yourself. “ Backing
this up with a simple verse from 1
John 4:8 which states, “…if a
person isn’t loving and kind, it
shows that he doesn’t know God,
for God is love.” Our hearts should
always be sensitive with the Lord’s
compassion so that we may truly
love as He did. This means sharing
others’ sorrow, distress, and
misfortune as well as sharing the
joys of life without envy, control
and manipulation. Until we have
learned to do this, we cannot know
true happiness. Wishing you all a
blessed week.
In Christ’s Love,
Fr. Anthony Lopez
Estimada Familia Parroquial de “Nuestra
Senora de Lourdes” y “San Miguel,
Ustedes que estaban presentes en las misas
del fin de semana la semana pasada, saben
que comparti con ustedes el gran gozo que
sentio en ser nombrado su nuevo Pastor.
Es un reto que anticipo con gran emocion y
humildemente les pido su ayuda en
aydarme adaptar a mi nueva posicion.
Resuelvo con todo mi corazon ser
accessible por lo tanto que es possible en
cada aspecto de los ministerios que se han
puesto en mi confianza. Como Nuestro
Evangelio de esta semana se trata de
compasion, Jesus reviso el antiguo
mandamiento para que dijera, “Amaras a tu
Dios con todo el corazon…y tu projimo
como si mismo. Un versiculo que se presta
a esto viene de la Primera Carta de San
Juan, Capitulo 4:8 que dice, “…si una
persona no es amoroso o carinoso, esto
muestra que El no conoce a Dios…porque
Dios es amor.” Nuestros corazones deben
de siempre estar sensibles con la
compasion del Senor para poder amar
verdaramente como El. Esto significa que
debemos compartir las tristezas, dolores, y
mal fortuna igual con los gozos y las
alegrias de la vida sin tener envidia, o un
sentido de control o manipulacion. Hasta
que hemos aprendido hacer esto, no
podemos conocer la felicidad verdadera.
Deseandoles una semana bendecida!
En el Amor de Cristo,
Padre Anthony Lopez
