Did you know you were having an anniversary today? As a Catholic member of the Diocese of Orange, this is our 40th anniversary. The actual date the Diocese began was June 18, 1976, but for practical reasons the Diocese is celebrating it this weekend. Maybe you’ve seen information about this in the diocesan newspaper or our bulletin, or on social media. There are a series of events at the Christ Cathedral Campus which I encourage you to attend. I will be at the 5K run Sunday morning. Most Catholics experience the Church at the parish level—Sunday Mass, school or faith formation, baptisms, weddings, funerals and the like. And it’s easy to forget we’re part of a larger Church called a Diocese, overseen by a Bishop. And even if you are aware of a diocesan structure, you may only think of it as some other Church group asking for your money (the annual Pastoral Services Appeal, or the almost completed capital campaign). But a Diocese is more than just another level of bureaucracy: it is in fact the way parishes are organized and coordinated and governed. The diocese exists to serve parishes and to help provide services, training, and oversight. If you’re old enough to remember 1976, maybe you remember something about that Fr. Tuan Nguyen Parochial Vicar Deacon Larry Hurst PAGE 3 time when the Diocese of Orange was created as a new territory, carved off of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles? My home parish is Holy Family in Orange, which was named the Cathedral Church, the seat of the Bishop. June 18 was a Friday, but I remember on Sunday morning an announcement was made by the Pastor, Monsignor Donald Strange (of happy memory) and the church erupted in applause. Msgr. Strange had tears in his eyes as he announced the first Bishop of the Diocese was William Johnson (also of happy memory), who was an Auxiliary Bishop of Los Angeles. I was 14 years old then, and I had only a vague idea why this was so important. I had applied to the High School Seminary of Our Lady Queen of Angels in San Fernando earlier that month, and so I was a brand-new seminarian for a brand-new diocese, my pastor was now the rector of the Cathedral, and when I arrived at the Minor Seminary in September I was part of a newly-formed group of seminarians that were from Orange and no longer part of LA. The Diocese of Orange commissioned a book describing some of the history of our Church. We also have an illustrated book (otherwise known as a comic book) of the Diocese! If you are interested, you can peruse a copy in the rectory office, and for a recommended donation of $15 you can take one home to read to your children or grandchildren! Sadly, I am not featured as a comic book character, but don’t let this stop you from owning your own copy! Father Christopher Heath Deacon Gary Mucho Deacon Henry Eagar WELCOME We are happy that you have joined us today and want you to know that you are always welcome here. We invite you to participate in any of our parish activities and ministries at the level you desire. We all have different but valuable gifts and talents that we can use to serve God and each other.

What does this mean? Well imagine that you lend your car to a friend in need and out of gratitude they give it back to you washed and full of more gas than you gave it to them. Wouldn't that make you smile? The reality is that EVERYTHING we have is a gift from God! We are stewards of all that God gives us and our stewardship is about responding to that generosity with our time, talent and treasure in accordance with our means, but striving to give back to God more than He gives us to start. Practically speaking this could be improving something in yourself or in the people/things around you, growing in faith, knowledge, service, humility...these are all ways we 'return the car clean and gassed up'. Please contact Jennifer Clark at 562-296-9007 or jclark@sainthedwigparish.org to discuss ways to share your time and talent or to connect in the community.
