Dear Families,
In this Sunday’s Gospel Jesus calls Andrew, Simon (Peter), James and John to leave their jobs as fishermen and to follow him. When God calls, we must be ready to drop everything and follow.
As a family watch video in its entirety and then ask each other this question. What would you have to leave behind to follow Jesus?
Family Prayer: Lord, help us to follow you because you know what will make us truly happy. Amen

Dear Sisters and Brothers,
This week we celebrated the feast of OUR LADY OF ALTA GRACIA - Our Lady of a high grace with our Dominican community. It is the image on which the Blessed Mother together with St Joseph presents Jesus to us lying in the manger. Literally She gives Him to us. The Blessed Mother didn’t receive Jesus for herself but for the whole humanity. Now the decision is our to respond.
Around the year we have placed the image above the steps of entrance to Religious Education office in the basement of the church. We can say that we keep coming to the Blessed Mother to adore Christ, to be enlightened, blessed and saved by him.

Queridas Hermanas y Hermanos,
Esta semana celebramos la fiesta de NUESTRA SEñORA DE ALTAGRACIA – Nuestra Señora de Gracia Suprema con nuestra comunidad Dominicana. Es la imagen en la que la Madre junto con San Jose nos presenta a Jesus acostado en el pesebre. Literalmente nos lo da. La Santisima Virgen no recibió a Jesus para ella sino para toda la humanidad. Ahora la decisión es nuestra de responder.
