Commissioning of all Catechists at 10:30 am Mass
Giving of Certificates will follow immediately after the Mass in the Community
Why do we have a special day set aside to commission Catechists?
Catechesis is a distinct and special ministry in the Church. As the Catechism of the
Catholic Church makes clear, “Catechesis is intimately bound up with the whole of the
Church’s life . . . her inner growth and correspondence with God’s plan depend essentially
on catechesis” (no. 7). This ministry of teaching in the name of the Church has a profound
dignity, which is why catechists are formally commissioned by the Church. It is only fitting
that we set aside a day to highlight this ministry and invite the entire Church Community
to think about our responsibility to share our faith with others.
How are parents, the primary Catechists of their children
acknowledged on Catechetical Sunday?
Parents are truly the primary Catechists of their children. They prepare the soil and plant
the first seeds of faith. On Catechetical Sunday, we not only highlight the work of
Catechists in parishes and schools, but we also commend parents and guardians and
encourage them to take seriously their role of making their Catholic households a place
where faith is passed on to the next generation. This is why the rite of blessing of
Catechists used on Catechetical Sunday is also for parents and guardians.
Today, let us pray for Catechists, Teachers and Parents, that they may truly be ‘Agents of
the New Evangelization’ as the Theme of the Catechetical Year 2012-2013 suggests.

SEPTEMBER 23, 2012
How shall I make a return to the Lord for all the good He has done for me? (Psalm 116:12)
The Parish Budget for Fiscal Year 2013 (7/1/12 - 6/30/13) is based on the giving of our faith family for Fiscal Year 2012.
The portion of our budget contributed in envelopes, checks and loose cash is $1,727.640.00 or $32,597.00 per week.
Thank you for your continuing generosity. Contributions for the 11th weekend of the fiscal year were $31,409.00. In the
11th week of our fiscal year, our budgeted goal for ministry programs and ordinary operating expense is $358,566.00
and our collections are $350,609.00. We encourage everyone to prayerfully consider using the Capital Improvement
Envelope in your packet to help recover the renovation of St. Bakhita Hall.
May God bless you in your sacrificial giving. Lord, help me move from comfort to sacrifice.

Twenty-fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time, September 16th, 2012. Today’s Gospel (Mk. 8:27-35) &
Catholic Charities: Who do you say Jesus is? Your friend? Companion? The rule setter? Pacifist? King? Take some
time this week and reflect upon who you think Jesus is in your own life. How does this affect your relationship with Him
and others? As stated several times throughout the Gospels, Jesus is a compassionate humanitarian. Catholic Charities attempts to emulate Jesus as an organization that reaches out to the poor and vulnerable to give them a helping
hand. To learn more about what Catholic Charities does in the Archdiocese of Santa Fe look at the Catholic Charities
website, www.ccasfnm.org or facebook page www.facebook.com/CCASFNM.
CATECHETICAL SUNDAY
This Sunday we honor and pray for all of our catechists. We are deeply grateful for all who offer
their time and talent to serve our youth and young adults in their religious education and formation
in faith. Thanks to Sr. Grace de Paoli, our Director of Religious Education and to all who work
with her in this vital ministry which renews our community in the ways of the Catholic faith.
Please thank a catechist or a mentor for sharing the treasures of our faith with our growing community. God bless you all!
ELECTIONS & NON-NEGOTIABLE MATTERS
I want to bring to your attention some of the non-negotiable matters of the faith that you must take into consideration as
you consider the upcoming elections.
I. The first matter is the dignity of human life. The Church has consistently maintained that human life is inviolable
from the moment of conception until the last breath of life. We can in no way participate in, support or promote abortion, euthanasia or fetal stem cell research as they destroy innocent life. We may, on the other hand, promote adult stem
cell research as it does no harm to life and is proving to be most effective in healing and saving lives.
II. Marriage is the permanent union of one man and one woman and has been God’s plan for the human race since Adam
and Eve. No one has the right to redefine what God has defined in Sacred Scripture. We must defend traditional conjugal union from any attempt to equate same-sex relationships with marriage whatsoever. In addition, we must defend
against human cloning as contrary to the moral law since it is in opposition to the dignity of human procreation and conjugal union.
III. Freedom of religion is a right protected by our Church and our nation’s Constitution. Any attempt to infringe upon
this right is an offense against God, our forefathers and our conscience.
Please investigate the positions of the candidates in order to avoid supporting those things which are indeed contrary to
the faith and our human dignity.
STATE FAIR
When visiting the State Fair this year, stop by the Archdiocesan booth for free literature about our Catholic Faith. In
addition, please visit Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church’s double booth, all in the Manuel Lujan Building. The parish’s
booths include both Eastern and Roman Catholic books, icons and Catholic devotionals in one and the other booth will
give out information on the Knights of Columbus, the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal and a UNM club on Catholic
evangelization and apologetics. Literature on how to answer challenges about the Catholic faith will be available.
SCRIPTURE ALPHABET
E- Romans 10:13 “Everyone who calls on the Name of the Lord shall be saved.”
CALLING ALL MEN
We have begun the second year of formation here in a men’s spirituality group called That
Man is You. Even if you missed last year’s program, you may join in with the 26 week program–13 weeks in the fall and 13 in the spring. We are meeting each Saturday morning
from 7:00 to 8:30 a.m. in the gym with breakfast, a video presentation and discussion. This
is an opportunity to learn how to be a godly man, father and leader in the faith. Please call
office at 293-7553 or Deacon Tony Rivera for more information at 410-9707.
