INSPIRATION FOR THE WEEK John the Baptist announced, "Prepare the way of the Lord, make straight his paths." Does preparing a way for the Lord have priority in our lives? Often we spend more time preparing paths for ourselves rather than a path for God. Advent calls us to take the focus off ourselves and put it on God. We prepare a path for God by practicing and living the virtues, being holy and devoted, patient and repentant, and attentive and humble. We are asked to bring comfort and healing to people and to show others by the way we live our lives

that we have a higher calling and purpose.

INSPIRACIÓN DE LA SEMANA Juan Bautista anunció: "Enderecen el camino del

Señor". ¿Tenemos como prioridad al Señor en nuestras vidas? A menudo, pasamos el tiempo preparando los caminos para nosotros, en vez del camino para el Señor. El Adviento nos llama a desprendernos de

nosotros mismos y poner la confianza en Dios. Prepara-mos el camino a Dios cuando practicamos y vivimos las virtudes, cuando somos santos y devotos, pacientes y arrepentidos, cuando somos humildes y estamos

atentos. Se nos pide que demos consuelo y curación a la gente y que mostremos a los otros que tenemos una llamada superior y un propósito en nuestras vidas.

Formación de Fe 2017-2018

La póliza de la Diócesis de Charleston sobre la preparación Sacramental:

La expectativa de la oficina de formación de Fé de Santa Ana y San Judas, es que al entrar a un programa sacramental, el joven haya

asistido previamente al programa de educación religiosa por lo menos por un año completo (de acuerdo con los registros de asistencia).

Porque una vez ingresado al programa de preparación sacramental, es esperado que el joven asista a todas las clases, retiros y que

participe fielmente. Si usted sabe si su hijo faltara a un día de Catecismo, favor de informar al maestro.

Clases de Educación Religiosa Toman lugar en el centro parroquial de San Judas para niños de Kínder a Octavo grado de 10:30-11:30am. Las clases de Confirmación serán en la Iglesia San Judas en el edificio de

los jóvenes a la misma hora. Si aún no ha inscrito a su hijo, favor de llamar a la oficina de formación de Fe

(803) 773-9244.

Grupo de Jóvenes de Sumter

No te has unido al grupo de jóvenes de Sumter? Qué esperas? El grupo de jóvenes de Sumter se reúne los

Domingos por la tarde de 6:00pm-8:00pm, en el edificio de jóvenes de San Judas. Está abierto a todos los

jóvenes de los grados 5 a 12 de la Iglesia de Santa Ana y San Judas, y de Nuestra Señora de los Cielos.

TODO SOBRE FE, TODO SOBRE DIVERSION Y TODO SOBRE TI!!

Rito de Iniciación Cristiana de Adultos (RCIA) en Español

La fiesta de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe nos llama a contemplar no solamente la presencia perdurable de la Virgen María a través de la historia, sino también el poderoso símbolo de la fe, la identidad y la misión mexicana. Ella se sitúa ante nosotros como símbolo de la maternidad, fidelidad, justicia social, paz e igualdad para las mujeres. Ella da voz al oprimido y esperanza a los desesperados. A través de su intercesión, se nos recuerda que Dios se encuentra con nosotros. Ella es una imagen específica de lo que Dios puede hacer, y la guía para que abracemos nuestra llamada y misión como discípulos de su Hijo.
