Our Adoration Chapel is open any day, any
hour, for those who wish to spend time with
our Eucharistic Lord. However, we ask that
silence be maintained if more than one person
is present, unless those present have agreed to
pray aloud together. If a group of people
would like to pray together aloud, sing together, etc., they are
most welcome to sign up for a regular weekly hour to do so.
We have a number of open times. But Adorers should cease
praying aloud if someone else enters. Please respect the right
of another to pray without disruption.

Would you like to know more about the book of Revelation
from a Catholic perspective? It is perhaps the most
misunderstood book in the entire Bible. There are many different
interpretations of Revelation from other faith communities and
popular literature which paint a very confusing and misinformed
picture of what the book is really about. This study of
Revelation is not an academic one but rather centered on basic
information about the book from the perspective of the Church.
Discussions will center around the teachings and how they are
relevant to our own faith journey. Come and join us!! Email
Deacon George at [email protected] for more information.
Please stop by the church office for additional information or
to inquire about fees for non-parishioners or sports-related
events. If a parishioner wishes to reserve church/school space
and/or equipment for non-parish events (baby showers,
birthday parties, anniversaries, etc.), the following fees will

In their statement on Forming Consciences for Faithful
Citizenship, the U.S. Catholic bishops remind Catholics
about the call to participate in political life. "In the
Catholic tradition," they write, "responsible citizenship
is a virtue, and participation in political life is a moral
obligation" (no. 13). Visit www.faithfulcitizenship.org today

En su declaración sobre Formando la Conciencia para ser
Ciudadanos Fieles, los obispos católicos de los Estados
Unidos recuerdan a los católicos acerca de la llamada a
participar en la vida política. "En la tradición católica",
escriben, "ser ciudadano responsable es una virtud y la
participación en la vida política es una obligación moral” (no
13). Para más información sobre éste y otros temas, visite
www.faithfulcitizenship.org.
Instruir al que no sabe, es pr oclamar el Evangelio a los que no lo han escuchado, acercar a la
gente más a Dios mediante la transmisión de los
conocimientos que carecen. El candidato para esta
instrucción podría ser alguien que está dando los
primeros pasos en la fe - un niño, o alguien que
nunca ha encontrado a Cristo. O podría ser alguien
que vá por un rumbo diferente - alguien en busca
de una verdad que todavia no ha encontrado, alguien que ha rechazado lo que habia entendido del
amor de Dios, o tal vez incluso alguien cuyo celo le
ha llevado lejos del corazón del Evangelio. En
cualquier caso, podemos pensar de ésto como un
intento para llevar la fe y la razón a una relación
correcta entre sí para experimentar la plenitud de la
vida. El Papa Juan Pablo II no utiliza la palabra
"ignorancia" en su encíclica Fides et Ratio, pero de
una manera él llega al corazón de lo que esta obra
de misericordia está tratando de lograr cuando pone
de manifiesto por qué la fe y la razón se necesitan
mutuamente:
Es una ilusión pensar que la fe, ligada a una
razón débil, podría ser más penetrante; por el
contrario, la fe corre el grave riesgo de marchitarse en mito o superstición. De la misma manera,
la razón que no está relacionada con una fe adulta no se siente motivada a dirigir la mirada hacia
la novedad y radicalidad del ser[3]
To instruct the ignorant, then, is to pr oclaim the
gospel to those who have not heard it, to lead people closer to God by imparting knowledge to them
that they do not yet have. The recipient of this instruction might be someone who is taking the first
steps in faith – a child, or someone who has never
encountered Christ. Or it might be someone who is
on a different journey – someone seeking a truth
they haven’t quite found, someone who has rejected what they have understood of God’s love, or
perhaps even someone whose zeal has led them
away from the heart of the gospel. In any case, we
can think of it as an attempt to bring faith and reason into right relationship with one another so that
the fullness of life might be experienced. Pope John
Paul II does not use the word ‘ignorance’ in his encyclical Fides et Ratio, but in a sense he cuts to the
heart of what this work of mercy is trying to
achieve when he highlights why faith and reason
need one another:
It is an illusion to think that faith, tied to weak
reasoning, might be more penetrating; on the
contrary, faith then runs the grave risk of withering into myth or superstition. By the same token,
reason which is unrelated to an adult faith is not
prompted to turn its gaze to the newness and
radicality of being.[3]
