Amen OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, KING OF THE UNIVERSE WE ARE SORRY ... During the week, our young people who are preparing to celebrate the Sacrament of Reconciliation for the first time will be reflecting on sorrow for sin and confession. Join them by reflecting on the actions and patterns in your life that distance you from a deeper relationship with Jesus and the Church. Pray to the Holy Spirit to awaken sorrow and contrition in you and that you may be blessed with the ability to say “I am sorry.” THE CRACKS IN OUR LIVES We have such amazing families here at OLPH. Our year 2 parents came out to share and reflect on forgiveness. It was such a powerful 2 nights. We came to understand each of us has our own unique flaws. We’re all like cracked pots, but if we allow it, the Lord will use our flaws to grace His Father's table. In God's great economy nothing goes to waste. So as we seek ways to minister together and as God calls you to tasks He has appointed for you, don't be afraid of your flaws. Acknowledge them, and allow Him to take advantage of them, and you too, can be the cause of beauty in His pathway. Go out boldly, knowing that in our weakness we find His strength, and that "In Him every one of God's promises is a Yes." We still have cracks, but we continue to seek the Lord’s light to shine through our life, knowing that the Sacrament of Reconciliation will make us whole again!! ATTENTION Lectors and Eucharist Ministers If you missed the meeting for Lector or Eucharist Minister last week, please contact Theresa Nicholas at the Rectory. A list of contact information for each Mass is being put together for ministers and we need your current information. Lector workbooks for this coming Liturgical Year are in the Rectory office. To pick up your book you must have attended the meeting and filled out the recommitment form. If not, we cannot add you to the schedule. Thank you for your cooperation. PAGE 4 SAFEGUARD THE CHILDREN Bullying prevention starts at home From cyberbullying to name-calling and exclusion, bullying can affect people of every age, especially kids and teens in school. Their peers can be cruel, so it’s important to talk about how to handle bullies, especially before a situation escalates. One way to stop the cycle of bullying in its tracks, is to teach kids to speak kindly to others and to treat everyone around them with respect. For more information, please visit https:// www.faithandsafety.org/bullying. For more information, call our Parish Contact Theresa Nicholas at 562) 862-7268.

Missionary Intention: That within parishes, priests and lay people may collaborate in service to the community without giving in to the temptation of discouragement. NOVEMBER 20, 2016 SAINT CECILIA In the city of Rome there was a virgin named Cecilia, who came from an extremely rich family and was given in marriage to a youth named Valerian. During her wedding ceremony she was said to have sung in her heart to God and before the consummation of her nuptials, she told her husband she had taken a vow of virginity and had an angel protecting her. Valerian was baptized by Pope Urbanus. Following his baptism, Valerian returned to his wife and found an angel at her side. When Valerian's brother, Tibertius, heard of his brother's baptism, he also was baptized and together the brothers dedicated their lives to burying the saints who were murdered each day by the prefect of the city, Turcius Almachius. Both brothers were eventually arrested and brought before the prefect where they were executed after they refused to offer a sacrifice to the gods. Cecilia was later arrested and condemned to be suffocated in the baths. She was shut in for one night and one day, as fires were heaped up and stoked to a terrifying heat - but Cecilia did not even sweat. When Almachius heard this, he sent an executioner to cut off her head in the baths. The executioner struck her three times but was unable to decapitate her so he left her bleeding and she lived for three days. On the third day she died and was buried by Pope Urban and his deacons. St. Cecilia's remains were transferred to Cecilia's titular church in Trastevere and placed under the high altar. catholic.org PAGE 5 SANTA CECILIA En la ciudad de Roma había una Virgen llamada Cecilia, que provenía de una familia muy rica y que fue dada en matrimonio a un joven llamado Valerian. Durante la ceremonia de su boda y antes de la consumación de su matrimonio se dice que en su corazón ella cantaba a Dios, le dijo a su marido que ella había hecho un voto de castidad y que tenía un ángel que la protegía. Valerian fue bautizado por el Papa Urbanus. Después de su bautismo, Valerian volvió a su esposa y encontró a un ángel a su lado. Cuando el hermano de Valerian, Tibertius, supo del bautismo de su hermano, también se bautizó y juntos los hermanos dedicaron su vida a enterrar a los Santos que eran asesinados cada día por el prefecto de la ciudad, Turcius Almachius. Eventualmente ambos hermanos fueron detenidos y llevados ante el prefecto donde fueron ejecutados después de que se negaron a ofrecer un sacrificio a los dioses. Posteriormente Cecilia fue detenida y condenada a ser sofocada en los baños de vapor. Ella fue encerrada por una noche y un día, el fuego era alimentado hasta producir un calor terrible - pero Cecilia ni siquiera sudaba. Almachius oyó esto, envió a un verdugo para que le cortara la cabeza en los baños. El verdugo le pego tres veces con su hacha pero fue incapaz de decapitarla la dejó sangrado y ella vivió así durante tres días. Al tercer día ella murió y fue enterrada por el Papa urbano y sus diáconos. Los restos de Santa Cecilia fueron trasladados a la iglesia titular de Cecilia en Trastevere y colocados bajo el altar mayor. catholic.org NUESTRO SEÑOR JESUCRISTO, REY DEL UNIVERSO PÁGINA 6 MINISTERIO HISPANO Queridos Hermanos y Hermanas en Cristo, Llegamos al fin del Año Litúrgico al celebrar la Solemnidad de Jesucristo, Rey del Universo.

Sus compañeros pueden ser crueles, de manera que es importante platicar con ellos sobre cómo manejar a los acosadores, especialmente antes que la situación escale. Una manera de detener el ciclo de acoso es enseñar a los niños a hablar con gentileza con otros y a tratar con respeto a todos a su alrededor.

Venta después de clases o en la Rectoría Información: Vivian 562-664-5309 Emilia 562-445-7561 Violeta 562-334-7787 Mensaje del Diácono Carlos PÁGINA 7 Queridos hermanos en Cristo: Al celebrar hoy la fiesta de Cristo Rey, se nos presenta la oportunidad de reflexionar sobre la naturaleza del reino de Dios. Pero apenas se lleva este tema a la conversación, surgen las preguntas: ¿En que consiste el reino de Dios? y ¿Donde lo encontraremos? ¿Que ofrece el reino de Dios a los hombres? ¿Cuáles son sus exigencias y los compromisos que nos pide? La humanidad entera esta llamada a formar parte del reino de Dios. Por eso Jesús mandó a sus discípulos a predicar el evangelio a todos los pueblos. Hay que llevar el mensaje de salvación de Jesucristo a todos los hombres, pero muy especialmente a los pobres de la tierra. La Iglesia de Jesucristo tiene que dar testimonio de la verdad ante el mundo llevando la luz de Cristo a todas partes. En esta fiesta de Cristo Rey renovemos nuestro compromiso cristiano de amar y servir. Recordemos que para los cristianos el lema que vale es "servir es reinar". !VIVA CRISTO REY!. Se invita a todas las mamás que quieran vestir a sus niños y niñas de inditos (Juan Dieguitos) para la fiesta de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe para la procesión de la misa de la siete de la noche, el día 12 de Diciembre.
