Many of you will recall that recently Fr. Alberto announced that he has been assigned to be the pastor at St. Mary s in Lockhart. He will be leaving us at the beginning of July. This is truly a great loss for our parish. During his announcement he also included that there is not a priest coming to replace him. This reality challenges us to continue to pray for more vocations to the priesthood. This reality also will put many more responsibilities on the shoulders of Fr. Jonathan and myself. After much prayer and deliberation, I have made the difficult decision that the Sunday 7PM Mass will be cancelled when Fr. Alberto departs. Consequently, the last day this Mass will be celebrated is July 3rd, the last day Fr. Alberto is with us. I realize this will cause inconvenience for some of you and I apologize for that. Nevertheless, I ask for your support in this very difficult decision and again challenge all of us to pray for more priestly vocations especially from our Hispanic communities. Fr. Dean Un mensaje de nuestro párroco... A lo mejor muchos de ustedes recuerdan que recientemente Padre Alberto anunció que el Señor Obispo le ha nombrado a servir como párroco en la Parroquia de Santa María de la Visitación en Lockhart. Él se nos va al principio de julio. De verdad, ésta es una gran pérdida para nuestra parroquia, y lo vamos a extrañar muchísimo. También, como el Padre Alberto anunció, no va a venir ningún sacerdote para remplazarlo. Este hecho nos llama a orar con mayor fervor por las vocaciones al sacerdocio. También, esta situación va a poner más responsabilidades sobre los hombros del Padre Jonathan y yo. En consideración de todo esto, y después de mucha oración he hecho una decisión difícil. Es decir que la misa de 7 p.m. va a ser cancelada cuando se va el Padre Alberto. El último día que se celebrará esta misa será el 3 de julio, que también será el último día que el Padre Alberto estará con nosotros. Quiero que sepan que me doy cuenta que este cambio será una inconveniencia para algunos de ustedes, y por eso les pido perdón. De todos modos, pido su apoyo en esta decisión difícil, y de nuevo les quiero desafiar a todos a que oremos por más vocaciones sacerdotales especialmente de la comunidad hispana. Gracias, y Dios los bendiga. Padre Dean Mary DiBonito Roofing Construction & Consulting 608 Scenic Path Leander TX Please patronize and thank our bulletin sponsors.

3 A few words from Fr. Alberto J. Borruel: As many of you know, our Bishop, Joe Vasquez has appointed me as the Pastor of St. Mary of the Visitation in Lockhart, TX to take effect at the beginning of July. This is my last weekend here at St. William. Needless to say I have mixed feelings leaving this beautiful and awesome parish. However, I do trust in our Lord Jesus Christ who, I believe, is leading me to this new assignment and as his servant I am obedient to His will. I am truly grateful to our Bishop, Joe Vasquez for his confidence in considering me for this new parish assignment. As many of you know, I came to St. William under the leadership of Fr. Joel McNeil and remained here during the transition of receiving our new pastor, Fr. Dean Wilhelm and a new associate pastor Fr. Jonathan Raia. Although he is no longer here I would like to publically thank Fr. Joel for his leadership during the one year I served with him. To Fr. Jonathan Raia, it s been wonderful working and collaborating with him and I would also like to thank him for his support while our pastor was away. I would like to personally thank Fr. Dean Wilhelm for his wonderful leadership and guidance and giving me the opportunity to serve as acting pastor during his sabbatical. It truly was a learning experience and most importantly a time of preparing me for what is to come. To the deacons who serve St. William, thank you for your dedication and service to the parish and the universal church. Your assistance in ministry has truly been a blessing to me in the priestly ministry. To the parish staff, thank you for your time, energy and dedication to serving the people of the parish and helping me in ministering to them. Finally, thank you to all of you the parishioners of St. William for welcoming me and allowing me be a part of your lives. It has truly been a joy serving you. You have truly been a huge part of my life and all of you in many ways have helped me grow in my faith and being the priest I am today. With only two priests now serving, I ask you to please support and pray for Fr. Dean and Fr. Jonathan as they continue the task of ministering to you, the parishioners of St. William. I also ask you for your prayers as I take on the role of pastor that I truly be a good and holy shepherd to the people that the Lord has now entrusted to me. Know that all of you, the parishioners of St. William, will always be in my heart and prayers. Again, thank you all for you have done for me these past three years and may God bless you all. Blessings, Algunas palabras de Padre Alberto J. Borruel: Como muchos de ustedes saben, nuestro Obispo Joe Vásquez me ha nombrado Pastor de la parroquia de Sta. María de la Visitación en Lockhart, TX. Designación efectiva a los principios del mes de julio; este es mi último fin de semana aquí en St. William y sobra decirles la mezcla de sentimientos que siento al dejar esta hermosa y gran parroquia. Sin embargo, creo en Nuestro Señor Jesucristo en quien confío, que El me lleva a esta nueva misión y yo, como su siervo que soy obedezco sus deseos. Estoy grandemente agradecido con nuestro Obispo Joe Vásquez que puso su confianza en mí al darme ésta nueva asignación parroquial. Como es conocido por todos, yo llegué a St. William cuando estaba Padre Joel McNeil a cargo de la parroquia, y viví la transición de recibir a nuestro nuevo Pastor Padre Dean Wilhelm y al nuevo pastor asociado Padre Jonathan Raia, y aunque Padre Joel ya no está aquí, quiero públicamente darle las gracias por su asesoramiento durante un año que serví con él. A Padre Jonathan Raia quiero decirle que ha sido maravilloso trabajar y colaborar con él y quiero darle las gracias por el apoyo que brindó durante la ausencia de nuestro párroco. Agradezco personalmente a Padre Dean Wilhelm por su estupendo liderazgo y guía y por darme la oportunidad de servir como Pastor temporal durante su sabático; esto ciertamente fue una experiencia de gran aprendizaje y lo más importante un tiempo de preparación para mí para el futuro. A los Diáconos de St. William, gracias por su dedicación y servicio a la parroquia y a la Iglesia Universal, su colaboración y su entrega en ministrar ha sido ciertamente una bendición para mi ministerio sacerdotal. A las personas de la oficina, gracias por su tiempo, energía y dedicación al servir a la gente de la parroquia y por ayudarme a ministrarlos. Por último les doy las gracias a todos ustedes los parroquianos de St. William por haberme recibido y permitirme ser parte de sus vidas; ha sido una gran alegría servirlos, ciertamente han sido una parte importante de mi vida y ustedes de muchas maneras me ayudaron a crecer en mi fe y a formar parte de ser el sacerdote que ahora soy. Con solo dos sacerdotes sirviendo en la parroquia les pido que por favor oren por Padre Dean y Padre Jonathan que continúan ministrándolos a todos ustedes Parroquianos de St. William. Quiero también pedirles que oren por mí, porque al tomar la posición de Pastor sea un buen y santo pastor de las personas que el Señor me ha encomendado con este envío. y no olviden ustedes, todos los parroquianos de St. William que siempre estarán en mi corazón y en mis oraciones. De nuevo les doy las gracias por todo lo que hicieron por mí en estos tres años y que Dios les bendiga a todos en abundancia. Bendiciones, Rev. Alberto J.

The world says freedom is the ability to do what we want, whenever we want, with whomever we want. But has this led to strong relationships, strong families, or strong communities? Since the days of the sexual revolution, the opposite has played out resulting in sexual chaos, exploitation, broken families, and a lot of pain. Recognizing the world s confusion, Pope John Paul II proclaimed the Theology of the Body a profound message of love and human sexuality. In it, he declared that authentic freedom is meant to lead to authentic love. Freedom to Love is a powerful, five-part study based on the Theology of the Body that is specifically intended for young adults and college students and is presented by popular author and expert Christopher West. In it he lays out a convincing and refreshing road map to living a life of authentic freedom and love. This DVD and workbook study will be held on Thursdays, July 7, 14, 21, 28 and August 4 from 7-9 p.m. at Emmaus Catholic Parish at the Youth Space in the PLC. It is open to all young adults ages and is free, aside from an optional workbook purchase. To register, TOBAustin@gmail.com.
