Decimo Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario
Jubilee Year of Mercy
Año Jubilar de la Misericordia
June 5, 2016
Tenth Sunday in Ordinary Time
Half the liturgical year 2016 is completed after six months of extraordinary celebrations. The Incarnation mystery: Jesus’ advent,
nativity, epiphany. The Paschal mystery: Jesus’ passion,
death, resurrection, Pentecost’s Holy Spirit. The solemnities of Holy Trinity and Jesus’ Body and Blood. Today
the Church resumes Sundays in Ordinary Time, but with a
Gospel of extraordinary mercy: Jesus raises a dead man to
life. Yet the one who benefits most from his extraordinary
mercy is not the dead son but his widowed mother. With
her husband and only son deceased, this woman’s material
support, in that patriarchal society, had vanished. So had
her emotional support, leaving her helpless, abandoned,
on society’s “peripheries.” One of Pope Francis’ hopes
in calling this Extraordinary Jubilee Year of Mercy is to
transform us into more extraordinary Christians, by making
our caring outreach to just such vulnerable people, and our practical
self-sacrificing love for them, our ordinary, daily, Christian way of life!
25 de junio de 2016
Décimo Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario
Ya llegamos a la mitad del Año Litúrgico 2016 llenos de celebraciones
extraordinarias. El misterio de la Encarnación: el Adviento,
la Navidad y la Epifanía de Jesús. El misterio Pascual: la
Pasión, Muerte y Resurrección de Jesús, el Pentecostés del
Espíritu Santo. Las Solemnidades de la Santísima Trinidad
y del Cuerpo y la Sangre de Cristo. Hoy la Iglesia regresa a
lo que se llama Domingos del Tiempo Ordinario, pero con
un Evangelio de extraordinaria misericordia: Jesús revive
a un hombre que estaba muerto; sin embargo, quien más se
beneficia de su extraordinaria misericordia no es el hombre
muerto sino su madre viuda. Con su esposo muerto y su
único hijo fallecido y en una sociedad patriarcal no hay
quien se encargue de la manutención de esta mujer. Así que
su apoyo emocional, la deja indefensa, abandonada en la
“periferia” de la sociedad. Una de las esperanzas del Papa
Francisco al convocar este Año Jubilar de la Misericordia es transformarnos en cristianos extraordinarios, haciendo que nuestra atención
llegue a las personas más vulnerables con nuestro amor generoso por
ellos, ¡nuestra forma de vida cristiana ordinaria, diaria!

I-35 Corridor Project
Santa Cruz Parish along with other churches in the area of the I-35
Corridor between San Antonio and Austin are participating in a project
to better understand the issues that the families of our communities
are experiencing in their daily lives. We have all witnessed the rapid
changes that have taken place in this region over the past 20 years,
changes that have created new pressures that affect our families. This
project will train people of our parish to go into our community and
engage all families around the challenges that they face: issues such
as the dramatic growth of our communities, increased juvenile delinquency, issues that affect access to quality education and affordable
health care, among others. Those who participate in the project will
be trained to organize the people of the community to work together
as neighbors through the church to identify these issues, develop effective solutions and work with public officials to address them. This
project has the full support of Bishop Vazquez and will be similar to
Austin Interfaith in Austin and Communities Organized for Public
Service in San Antonio. Ramon Duran is the organizer who is working with Father Kirby and other
pastors in the region. Participating churches are
Catholic, Methodist, Lutheran, Baptist, and Unitarian in Buda, Kyle, San Marcos, New Braunfels, and
Seguin. Ramon Duran will speak briefly at all the
Masses, this weekend, and will sign people up to
receive for more information.
Decimo Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario
Proyecto - Ruta del I-35
La Parroquia de Santa Cruz, con otras Iglesias en el área entre San
Antonio y Austin, está participando en un proyecto para mejor entender los asuntos que afectan el bienestar de las familias de nuestras
comunidades. Todos somos testigos de los cambios rápidos que han
ocurrido en los últimos veinte años, cambios que han creado nuevas
presiones que enfrentan a las comunidades. Este proyecto entrenará
a gente de nuestra parroquia para entablar conversaciones con las
familias de la comunidad y poder entender los asuntos que nos enfrentan, por ejemplo, el crecimiento rápido de las comunidades, la
delincuencia juvenil, acceso a educación adecuada, cuidado de salud
y otros asuntos. Los que participen en el proyecto serán entrenados
para organizar a la gente de las vecindades y desarrollar soluciones
que se puedan llevar a los oficiales públicos. Este proyecto tiene el
apoyo completo del Obispo Vázquez. Ramón Durán es el organizador
que trabajará con el Padre Kirby y otros pastores en la región. Otras
iglesias que están participando incluyen a Católicos, Metodistas,
Luteranos, Bautistas, y Unitarios. Ramón Durán
dará una explicación breve en las Misas este fin de
semana. Usted se puede inscribir para recibir más

BLOSSOM
There is no aspect of parenting that is more emotionally challenging than
approaching and respectfully nurturing your child’s blossoming sexuality.
BLOSSOM, is a program of St. John Paul II Life Center that provides tools to
mothers so they can help their daughters embrace their blossoming womanhood! The BLOSSOM program is designed for mothers who have daughters
ages 10-14. A one-day BLOSSOM presentation is scheduled at Santa Cruz
Catholic Church on Tuesday, July 12, 2016 from 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM in the
Youth room. Registration fee is $10.00, snacks included. Visit www.jpiilifecenter.org under the “events” tab to register, or call (512) 407-2900 for more
information.
