newsletter sent to parishes and those serving the
Catholic Church in Central Texas every Friday at

the San José website:
The Diocesan Pastoral Plan, 2009-2013, calls
for the implementation of five strategies. One of
the strategies is to foster Welcoming Communities. In today’s world of technology and social
communication, many people routinely access
websites to learn about an organization, what it
has to offer, and how they can become involved.
The websites of three parish communities have
been identified as very attractive, welcoming,
inviting, and easy to navigate.
One of these three parishes is our very own SAN
JOSÉ!! The other two parishes are Holy Cross in
Austin and Christ the King in Belton. We owe
this great achievement to
Fr. Charlie Garza
our Associate Pastor and Erik Diaz our Director of Youth Ministry for giving NEW Life to
our website. You can view our website at www.

Stewardship
The disciples on the road to Emmaus walked and talked with Jesus
all day long, but it was not until they offered Him hospitality and He
blessed and broke the bread that they recognized Him. Simple acts
of loving kindness still reveal the presence of God in our midst.
COMPROMISO PARROQUIAL
En el camino a Emaus, los discípulos caminaban y hablaban con Jesús
todo el día, pero no fue sino hasta que ellos Le ofrecieron hospitalidad
y Él bendijo y repartió el pan cuando lo reconocieron a Él. Los actos
sencillos de amorosa bondad todavía revelan la presencia de Dios entre
nosotros.

A Catholic Call to Political Responsibility
Politics…should be about an old idea with
new power The common good.
The central question should not be, “Are you
better off than you were four years ago?”
It should be, “How can ‘we’—all of us,
especially the weak and vulnerable
Be better off in the years ahead?
How can we protect and
promote human life and dignity?
How can we pursue
greater justice and peace?”

Una Llamada Católico para una Política
Responsable
La política... debería ser de una idea antigua
con un poder Nuevo el bien común.
La pregunta central no debería ser,
“¿Ha mejorado Usted en comparación
de cuatro años pasados?”
¿ Debería ser “ Cómo podemos
‘ nosotros ‘ - todos nosotros,
‘y especialmente los débil y vulnerables,
Ser mejor en los años que siguen?
¿Cómo podemos proteger y defender la vida
humana y la dignidad humana?
¿Cómo podemos dedicarnos a
conseguir más justicia y paz?”
