Pastor’s Letter
Dear Parishioners:
We congratulate the leadership core team at St. Ann’s Catholic Church for organizing a wonderful event to celebrate the par-­
ish’s patron (Saint Ann) with an outdoor’s Mass for the whole parish for this special feast day. We had many parishioners who
came to join us and we had a prayerful celebration with the Eucharist in thanking the Lord for the year’s blessing and to ask
God to continue to bless upon our parish for the year to come. We thank all of those who were involved with this celebration’s preparation. As you well know, without your support and help we do not have a meaningful celebration. May the patron St.
Ann continue to bless upon us!
Summer is a wonderful time for us to celebrate various events, such as birthdays of those who are a long time parishioners
from our regional parishes. We have many parishioners who are passed 90 years old and a few 100 years old. We thank their
families who joined them in celebrating their life and we thank them for coming to the Faith Community to celebrate with us.
May the Lord continue to bless upon all of those who celebrate their birthday during this summer time and we also congratulate
those who celebrate their anniversary (religious vows and marriage vows). May the Lord continue to bless upon their vocation
and may they continue to find happiness in their vocation!
We have a wedding celebration each weekend from our regional parishes for this month. We congratulate those couples that
are getting married this month. May you continue to witness your vocation of a Christian family to love and care for each
other, so the world can know what true love is from how you live your life each day as witness of God’s love to the real world!
We thank the core team who assists us in preparing those couples who are making their vows and have asked us to pray for
their marriage vocation.
We congratulate the entire students who graduated this summer and may you find the job in the field you enjoyed studying for.
We are proud to inform you on the Eucharistic Youth Leader who had their convention at St. Michael in Olympia, WA. They
have elected their new leadership team after their conference. We thank those who served on the previous leadership team and
we congratulate the new elected leadership team for this region. May the Lord continue to bless upon you for your ministry for
the youth!
There are few projects that we would like to inform you, so you are able to assist us with. The Religious Education building
project at St. John of the Woods’ Church has different stages of work. We removed the old windows and frames and installed new windows, and we need to have new frames installed before we can commence to paint the exterior of the building. We
spend a lot of time to make our Church’s ground look nice with flora (plants, flowers) during the summer time. The parish staff is working on the Parish Annual Report to send in before August 15th to the Archdiocese and they will work on the Parish
Annual Report to the parishioners, and we are planning to send this out in October before the Stewardship Campaign in November. We are supporting the youth group for their car washing Fund Raising for their Convention and we thank you for your
generous support with this event to support their ministry. We are working with the Long Range Plan Implementation core
team, and we meet during the summer time to support them to work on different areas that need it, so we have a good report for
you when you are back. We are supporting the core team on the Multi-cultural feast at St. John of the Woods’ Church, which is planned for August 16th after the 5:30 PM Mass followed with a Dinner from 6PM to 10:00PM. You do not want to miss this
opportunity to have this special meal with your family. You do not need to travel long distances to have this experience to try
authentic food from various cultures (i.e Pacific Island and other ethnic groups) that will share their cultural food with us on
this night. We met with the Pastoral Council candidates at Sacred Heart’s Church after their discernment process, and a new group of leadership will be formed and ready to assist us in September. We also formed a committee to study the facility of the
School Building at St. Ann Parish and will assist us to clean and organize the rooms for different groups and ministries to use
when the CCS (Catholic Community Service) moves out.
Deacon Tim is leaving us soon after his CPE program is completed. We thank him for his ministry as Deacon at St. John of the
Woods (he assists on the weekend). He will be going to Rome for his final year in the Seminary and complete his formation
before being ordained to the Priesthood of Christ to serve God’s people in the Archdiocese of Portland, Oregon. Cody will be
going back to Mt. Angel Seminary after his CPE is completed. We thank you for your continued support of our seminarians
and praying for them.
We welcomed many guests throughout the summer time. They are bishops, priests, religious sisters and brothers from other
countries who have come to visit their relatives and friends who are parishioners of our regional parishes. It was a joy to meet
with them and to show them around our parishes (all the ministries our parishes offer). They all appreciate the hospitality and
generosity that we offered to them. They have asked me to thank you and our Faith Community for sharing the unconditional
love of Christ in the Sacraments that we celebrate and the words of Christ is alive in our actions.
May you continue to have a joyful summer with peace and love!
Sincerely Yours in Christ,

The beginning of summer marks the start of
the wedding season whether in a church setting or a garden. In recent times, a popular
item has been added to the wedding ceremony: the wedding candle also referred to as the unity candle.
Because of its overpowering presence, some couples think that
the wedding candle is an integral part. However, this symbol is
not part of the Catholic Church's marriage rite. Some even regard
it as an intrusion and an overburdening into the ceremony itself.
A quick look at the USCCB web site states that the wedding candle is not prohibited but suggests another solution. The wedding
candle may become more important than the Paschal Candle
should that still be in the Sanctuary. This "symbol" could be used
as part of the wedding reception with a special table place. Used
at the wedding banquet, rather than during the liturgy, it can be
an effective reminder of what happened in church. There are
many suggestion as to how this can be set up including placement of the wedding candle, the lighting with 2 side candles and
a blessing! All of this would be at the table where the bride and
groom would be sitting. The bride and groom would light the
candle with the 2 side candles. The symbolic meaning of the 2
flames becoming one, would represent their commitment to each
other as well as their union with God. For those planning a future
wedding, why not consider giving the banquet incorporation a
try. The effect might be surprising!

Eusebius was born on the island of Sardinia,
Italy, around 283. His parents were dedicated
Christians. It is believed that his father died a martyr. Eusebius was always active in the Christian community. He
was called to serve the people of Rome and then went to
northern Italy, to Vercelli. He was chosen to be the first
bishop of Vercelli. He and some of his priests lived a common life modeled on a monastery. The priests received
wonderful preparation for growing in the spiritual life.
They also learned how to direct other people who would
come to them for guidance. The priests trained by St. Eusebius became fervent and happy ministers of Jesus. Many
were ordained bishops.

De nuestro Párroco -
3 de agosto2014
abres, senor, tu mano y nos sacias
El verano es una época maravillosa para celebrar muchos eventos, como
cumpleaños de los feligreses de las parroquias hermanas que están con nosotros
ya por muchos años. Tenemos feligreses que pasan de los 90 años de edad y
unos pocos de 100 años de edad. Agradezco a las familias que unieron en esta celebración de la vida como también por los miembros de la comunidad de fe que
celebraron con nosotros. Que nuestro Señor continúe bendiciendo a los que celebran su cumpleaños en la época de verano también felicito a los que celebran sus
aniversarios (votos religiosos, y votos de matrimonio) Que nuestro Dios les bendiga su vocación y que ellos puedan encontrar felicidad en su vocación!
Hemos tenido una boda cada fin de semana en este me entre las tres parroquias.
Les felicito a las parejas que contrajeron matrimonio. Que puedan continuar siendo testigos de su vocación de familia cristiana, de amor y cuidado del uno al otro,
para que el mundo sepa lo que verdaderamente es el amor, mostrando cómo vivimos nuestra vida cotidiana siendo testigos del amor de Dios al mundo real! Gracias al equipo que ayuda a preparar estas parejas que hacen su compromiso y nos
piden que oremos por ellos por su vocación de matrimonio.
Felicidades a todos los estudiantes que se graduaron este verano que puedan
encontrar trabajo en la materia por el que disfrutaron estudiando. Me siento orgulloso de informarles que el liderazgo juvenil eucarístico que tuvieron su retiro en
la Iglesia de San Michael Olympia, WA. Hicieron elección del nuevo liderazgo
después de la conferencia. Gracias a los que estuvieron sirviendo anteriormente y
les agradecemos a los dirigieron anteriormente, felicidades al nuevo equipo de la
región. Que nuestro Señor continúe bendiciéndoles por este ministerio de
jóvenes.
El personal de la oficina está trabajando en el reporte anual para poder enviarlo antes del 15 de Agosto a la Arquidiócesis de Seattle, para luego poder trabajar
en el reporte para nuestros feligreses, esperamos enviárselos para en Octubre
antes de la campana de corresponsabilidad que inicia en Noviembre.
Nos reunimos con los candidatos para el consejo Pastoral después del proceso
de discernimiento, y un nuevo grupo de líderes se formara esperemos esté listo
para iniciar en Septiembre
Continuaremos revisando en plan a largo plazo Visión 2017 esperando tener un
buen reporte la próxima semana.
Diacono Tim viajara a Roma cuanto termine el programa CPE, para poder continuar su formación en el seminario antes de ser ordenado en sacerdocio de Cristo
al servicio de la gente de dios en la Arquidiócesis de Portland, Oregón. Cody
regresara al Seminario de Mt. Angel después de terminar CPE. Les agradezco
por el apoyo a los seminaristas y por todos los invitados que hemos tenido durante este verano y por orar por ellos; Ellos son obispos, sacerdotes, hermanas religiosas y hermanos de otros países que han venido a visitar a sus familiares y amigos de otras parroquias. Fue un gusto conocerlos y llevarles a conocer los alrededores (incluyendo los diferentes ministerios que nuestra parroquia ofrece) Ellos
agradecen la hospitalidad y la generosidad que todos les ofrecieron. Me pidieron
que les diera las gracias a nuestra comunidad de fe por compartir incondicionalmente el amor cristiano en el sacramento que celebramos y atreves de la palabra
de Cristo en las acciones de nuestra vida.
Queremos tu colaboración al equipo que ha preparado un festival-multicultural en
San Juan del Bosque que será el 16 de Agosto a las 5:30 pm será la Misa seguida
por la cena de 6:00 a 10:00 pm; no necesita viajar lejos para experimentar la comida autentica de las diferentes culturas (Pacific Island y otros Países)
Que continúen disfrutando del verano con paz y amor!
Sinceramente suyos en Cristo!
