Fruit or the lack thereof is a manifestation of our interior life and health. It describes and reveals whether we are living connected or disconnected lives. Fruit production is the natural consequence of stay-ing connected. You can see that in long-term friend-ships, marriages, community loyalty. We do not choose whether or not we produce fruit. We do, how-ever, choose where we abide and how we stay con-nected.
You know how that is. Sometimes we lose touch with a particular person. We no longer know where he or she is, what she is doing, or what is hap-pening in her life. One day we run into him or her. It’s a bit awkward. No one is sure what to say. There’s not much to talk about. There was no deep abiding presence, the connection is lost, and it seems as if what was has been thrown away. Other people we run into after five or ten years and the conversa-tion immediately picks up where we left off those many years ago. Even though we were apart we nev-er left each other. There was and remains a connec-tion and mutual abiding that time, distance, and the circumstances of life cannot sever.
It is not about the quantity of our lives but the quality of our lives. That’s what Jesus is after. That is the deeper question he is ask-ing. It is the invitation to join the conversation, jump into the game, to participate, and to live fully alive. That only happens when the life, the love, and the goodness and holiness of Christ flow in us. We become an extension of and manifest his life, love, and holiness. It is a relation-ship of union even as a branch is united to the vine. We live our lives as one. This is not just about relationship with Jesus; it affects and is the basis for our relationships with one another. Love for Jesus, one another, and ourselves become one love. We soon discover we are living one life and the fruit of that life and love is abundant, overflow-ing, and Father glorifying.
La fruta o la falta de ella es una manifestación de nuestra vida interior y nuestra salud. Describe y revela si estamos viviendo vidas conectadas o desconectadas. La producción de fruta es la consecuencia natural de
mantenerse conectado. Puedes ver eso en las amistades a largo plazo, los matrimonios, la lealtad de la comuni-dad. No elegimos si producimos fruta o no. Sin embar-go, elegimos dónde permanecemos y cómo nos mante-nemos conectados.
Ya sabes cómo es eso. A veces perdemos el contacto con una persona en particular. Ya no sabemos dónde está, qué está haciendo o qué está pasando en su vida. Un día nos encontramos con él o ella. Es un poco inco-modo Nadie está seguro de qué decir. No hay mucho de qué hablar. No hubo una presencia duradera, la conexión se perdió y parece como si lo que se había desechado. Otras personas con las que nos topamos después de cinco o diez años, y la conversación co-mienza de inmediato donde lo dejamos hace muchos años. Aunque estábamos separados, nunca nos abando-namos. Hubo y sigue habiendo una conexión y perma-nencia mutua que el tiempo, la distancia y las circuns-tancias de la vida no pueden romper.
No se trata de la cantidad de nuestras vidas, sino de la calidad de nues-tras vidas. Eso es lo que Jesús busca. Esa es la pregunta más profunda que está haciendo. Es la invitación a unirse a la conversación, saltar al juego, participar y vivir completamente vivo. Eso solo sucede cuando la vida, el amor y la bondad y la santidad de Cristo fluyen en nosotros. Nos convertimos en una extensión y manifestación de su vida, amor y santi-dad. Es una relación de unión incluso cuando una rama está unida a la vid. Vivimos nuestras vidas como uno solo Esto no se trata solo de la relación con Jesús; afecta y es la base de nuestras relaciones entre noso-tros. El amor a Jesús, a los demás, y a nosotros mismos nos convertimos en un solo amor. Pronto descubrimos que estamos viviendo una vida y que el fruto de esa vida y amor es abundante, desbordante y glorificando al Padre.

Protect the tender shoots and little buds as they quietly sprout, ripen and burst forth with goodness and growth, and we pray that we may have a fruitful harvest with a pro-
ductive yield – and we will give You all the praise and all the glo-ry, in Jesus name we pray, Amen
Dear Parish Family,
The word "remain" fills today's readings: remain on the vine, in Jesus, and allow his words to remain in us. One meaning of remain is to stay in the same place with the same person or group. We stay on the vine by staying with Jesus and those who belong to him. In that way we invite his words to stay within us. Our relationship with him will bear the fruit of living his commandments, so others can see that we remain in him and he remains in us.
In today's world, I worry about how we are sharing this with our young people. Do we invite them to stay with Jesus, to continue to learn and experience Him? I see so many young people struggling to "fit" into the society around them. We have a program here at the Church to help our young teens get to know Christ and how to "remain" with Him. It is our Youth Ministry program that meets on Friday evenings. I have heard so many youth say they would like to go, but their parents do not feel it is benefiting them. Listen today to Christ's words. How are you helping your young people stay in tune with Christ? I invite you to look into the program with open minds and hearts and encourage your youth to become involved in the life of the Church.
Have a blessed week,
Sr. Karen Collier

To build and foster a Christian Community that offers
the opportunity to experience God’s unconditional love
and acceptance to all who come into contact with it.
Construir y alimentar una Comunidad Cristiana que ofrece
la oportunidad de experimentar el amor incondicional de
Dios y la aceptación a todos con quienes nos encontremos.
Querida Familia de la Parroquia,
La palabra "permanecer" llena las lecturas de hoy: permanece en la vid, en Jesús, y permite que sus palabras permanezcan en nosotros. Un significado de permanecer es permanecer en el mismo lugar con la misma persona o grupo. Nos quedamos en la vid quedándonos con Jesús y los que le pertenecen. De esa manera, invitamos a sus palabras a permanecer dentro de nosotros. Nuestra relación con él tendrá el fruto de vivir sus mandamientos, para que otros puedan ver que permanecemos en él y él permanece en nosotros.
En el mundo de hoy, me preocupa cómo estamos compartiendo esto con nuestros jóvenes. ¿Los invitamos a quedarse con Jesús, a continuar aprendiéndolo y experimentándolo? Veo a tantos jóvenes luchando por "encajar" en la sociedad que los rodea. Tenemos un programa aquí en la Iglesia para ayudar a nuestros jóvenes adolescentes a conocer a Cristo y cómo "permanecer" con él. Es nuestro programa de Ministerio Juvenil que se reúne los viernes por la noche. He escuchado a tantos jóvenes decir que les gustaría ir, pero sus padres no sienten que los está beneficiando. Escuche hoy las palabras de Cristo. ¿Cómo estás ayudando a tus jóvenes a estar en sintonía con Cristo? Los invito a mirar el programa con mentes y corazones abiertos y alentar a sus jóvenes a involucrarse en la vida de la Iglesia.
Que tengas una bendita semana,
Hermana Karen Collier

Please join the S.H.A.R.E. Ministry in praying for the repose of the soul of our beloved brother LAR-RY FELDMAN and for his family DOREEN AND PJ as they continue
their journey without him. Larry spent many a Christmas day making sure that our guests dur-ing the dinner had a music for a joyful celebration.
THANK YOU
Camerina Juarez and fami-ly and Mrs. Stamps for the donations of all the sand-wiches for our guests. The Zuniga family Gloria P, Juan Rincon and Azalie for the fruit drinks, soup, pro-duce and home baked des-serts. Our guests were de-
lightfully humbly and grate-ful and started immediate-ly on the tuna salad sand-wiches asking for more.
Thank you Wingless An-gels for being such a bless-ing in remembering our sis-ters and brothers with such love, caring kindness. Amen.
Our Minister Leaders Az-alie N and Yolanda M con-tinue to provide an atmos-phere where the volunteers are encouraged to join in and enjoy the compassion-ate art of caring in deliver-ing a kindness for someone. Many of our adult volun-teers like Concepcion, John, Catherine, Gloria C, Lisa have served with us for years, Ron Morrow, Yolanda's dad whenever he comes to visit her always finds the time to come and bless us with serving. The youth volunteers Joma and his classmates from Bright

Mientras el mes continúa, los padres de nuestros estudiantes los acompañarán para un día de retiro y reflexión. Estos retiros realmente son una expresión maravillosa del amor de Dios, ya que los padres y los niños pasan un día juntos en oración, reflexión, pero lo más importante es que comparten su experiencia de fe. Realmente apreciamos la dedicación y el amor de los padres por sus hijos al participar en este día con ellos.
As the month continues, the parents of our First Communion Year 2 students will accompany them for a day of retreat and reflection. These retreats really are a wonderful expression of God’s love, as parents and children spend a day together in prayer, reflection, but most importantly sharing of their faith experience. We truly appreciate the parent’s dedication and love for their children in participating in this day with them. Please keep them in prayer these next couple of weeks.

Escuelas hambrientas y comunidades de dinero.
Condujo las inversiones de CA en escuelas desde el número 1 en el
país hasta el número 41 en la actualidad.
Ciclos catalizados de pobreza y encarcelamiento en comunidades de
color.

Since 1978, our schools and communities have been robbed of over $100 Billion because of a corporate tax loophole in Proposition 13.
Prop 13
Allowed the wealthiest corporations who are earning record profits to stop paying their fair share of taxes.
Starved schools and communities of money.
Drove CA’s investments in schools down from #1 in the country to #41 today.
Catalyzed cycles of poverty and incarceration in communi-ties of color.
Starting today and for the next couple of weekends, L.A VOICE members we will be taking signatures to amend proposition 13. For more information please take a flyer. We need volunteers for the English mass. Thank you.
