Archdiocese Catholic Appeal Goal reached… Due to a recent donation, we have reached 100% of our Catholic Appeal goal. This means that at the end of the year, we will receive a rebate from the Archdiocese amounting to several thousand dollars. Thank you to all who have contributed to the Appeal. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

La fiesta del Divino Niño Jesús (este domingo) En el año 1935 llegó el Padre Salesiano Juan del Rizzo al barrio “20 de julio”, al sur de Bogotá, una región muy solitaria y abandonada en aquellos tiempos….El Padre del Rizzo estaba convencido de que a Dios le agrada mucho que honremos la infancia de Jesús,

pues así lo ha demostrado con innumerables y numerosos milagros. ¿Si otros niños son tan inocentes y tan dignos de ser amados, cuánto más lo será el niño Jesús? Además recordaba muy bien la promesa hecha por Nuestro Señor a una santa: “Todo lo que quieres pedir pídelo por los méritos de mi infancia y nada te será negado si te conviene conseguirlo.” Así que no desistió de propagar la devoción al Divino Niño pero dispuso adquirir una nueva imagen.

Se fue a un almacén de arte religioso llamado “Vaticano” propiedad de un artista italiano, y le encargó una imagen bien hermosa del Divino Niño. Le prestaron una imagen bellísima, el padre la llevó para sus solitarios, desérticos y abandonados campos del “20 de julio”. Ahora empezaría una nueva era de milagros en esta región.

Esta es un de las imágenes más hermosas y agradables que han hecho de nuestro Señor. Con los brazos abiertos como queriendo recibir a todos, con una sonrisa imborrable de eterna amistad, atrae la atención y el cariño desde la primera vez que uno le contempla. (https://www.ewtn.com/spanish/DivinoNiño/Historia.htm)

Hoy, después de la Misa, les invitamos a la escuela para compartir con nosotros los platillos de comida hispana. Muchas gracias a todos quienes colaboran con la comunidad. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

El pícnic para nuestra comunidad (el 24 de agosto) Cada año, nuestra comunidad hispana tiene un pícnic en el parque del Río Charles (Charles River) en verano. Es buena oportunidad para conocerse unos a otros y disfrutar comida sabrosa. Este verano, tenemos pícnic otra vez sábado, el 24 de agosto desde las 10:00 AM de la mañana hasta las 5:00 PM de la tarde. La dirección de este parque es “1175A Soldiers Field Rd, Boston, MA 02116”. Les invitamos a todos a venir al pícnic. Por favor, siéntase libre de traer su comida para compartir con nosotros. Para mayor información, favor de comunicarse con Blanca Ocampo.

¡¡¡Alerta!!! - Estafa o “Scam” Varios feligreses han recibido textos que parecieran que son de parte del Padre Richard W. Fitzgerald, solicitando la compra de "tarjetas de Google". Es una estafa o “Scam", y no un mensaje del Padre Fitz. No respondan si reciben un

mensaje de este tipo." ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Recuérdanos durante el verano Durante los meses de verano, por favor, no olviden contribuir al apoyo financiero de la parroquia. Es posible que haya notado en el boletín que nuestra colección de ofrendas en algunas semanas ha sido significativamente más bajo que

nuestro objetivo semanal de $7,000. Mientras que en el verano, nuestro pago del servicio público puede ser más bajo que el en el invierno, los costos de mantenimiento de terreno y césped son significativamente más altos. Necesitamos la ayuda de todos los feligreses para mantenerse el costo de dirigir la parroquia. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Peregrinación a Tierra Santa (el 11 de febrero - 20 de febrero, 2020) - ¡¡¡Todo el gasto debe ser pagado para el 1 de noviembre, 2019!!! El Padre Chris Bae llevará a un grupo de nuestra
