Page 2 ST. RITA CATHOLIC CHURCH, DADE CITY, FLORIDA Faith Formation The Peter s Pence Collection has ancient Christian roots, linking back to the New Testament times when people would provide material support to those preaching the Gospel to distribute to those in need (see Acts 4:34-35, 11:29). Today the collection is the way we as members of the Catholic Church unite ourselves to the concerns of the Holy Father. Donations to this collection support the charitable works of Pope Francis for the assistance of those most in need. How Pope Francis Invites Us to Make the World Less Cold and More Just In his 2016 Urbi et Orbi address, Pope Francis reminds us, The Lord... enables us to see with his eyes of love and compassion those who hunger and thirst, strangers and prisoners, the marginalized and the outcast, the victims of oppression and violence. By opening our eyes to the suffering and injustice in the world, we can open our hearts to the call of Pope Francis that efforts be made everywhere to promote the culture of encounter, justice and reciprocal respect, which alone can guarantee the spiritual and material welfare of all people. How We Can Join Pope Francis and Be a Witness of Charity By supporting this collection, you support the charitable works of Pope Francis. Your donations are a witness of charity and help the Holy See reach out compassionately to those who are marginalized. Contributions to this collection provide assistance to victims of natural disaster, war, oppression, and disease. Formación de la fe La Colecta Peter s Pence tiene raíces cristianas muy antiguas que se remontan a los tiempos del. Nuevo Testamento cuando las personas proveían apoyo material a los que predicaban el Evangelio para que ellos lo distribuyeran entre los más necesitados (ver Hechos 4:34-35, 11:29). Hoy, para nosotros los miembros de la Iglesia Católica, la colecta es una manera de unirnos a las preocupaciones del Santo Padre. Los donativos dados a esta colecta financian la labor caritativa del papa Francisco para ayudar a los más necesitados. Cómo nos invita el papa Francisco a hacer el mundo menos frio y más justo En su mensaje Urbi et Orbi del 2016, el papa Francisco nos recuerda: El Señor... nos concede su mirada de ternura y compasión hacia los hambrientos y sedientos, los extranjeros y los encarcelados, los marginados y descartados, las víctimas del abuso y la violencia. Al abrir nuestros ojos al sufrimiento y a la injusticia en el mundo, nosotros podemos abrir nuestro corazón al llamado del papa Francisco a que se promueva en todo lugar la cultura del encuentro, la justicia y el respeto recíproco, lo único que puede asegurar el bienestar espiritual y material de los ciudadanos. Cómo podemos unirnos al papa Francisco y ser testigo de la caridad Al dar su apoyo a esta colecta, ustedes apoyan la labor caritativa del papa Francisco. Sus donativos son testigos de la caridad y ayudan a la Santa Sede a llegar y ayudar compasivamente a aquellos que están marginados. Sus contribuciones a esta colecta proporcionan asistencia a las víctimas de desastres naturales, de la guerra, la opresión y las enfermedades.

Page 3 www.stritaparish.org Practical hints in welcoming your new Pastor or Priest 1) Be patient with him. The stress of moving, the grief of leaving a familiar parish and the newness of it all might be a bit much for him. Be patient. 2) Don t beat a path to his door. Give him some time to unpack, get settled, finding all the bathrooms and getting the secretary s names straight. This might take a month or two, or longer see #1. Del Escritorio Del Párroco 3) Give the new priest time to settle before dinner invitations are extended.although a nice plate of cookies or dropping off a small lasagna couldn t hurt. 4) Tell him your name and what you are involved with. Don t do this once or twice, but a number of times. Don t be offended if in six months or a year later he doesn t remember your name. He wants to. Really! So don t embarrass him, tell him again 5) Make sure he has help moving in if he wants it. The parish secretary can help knowing if he needs help. Some priests would welcome help, others desire privacy. They are all different. 6) Let him change his mind! Sometimes a decision made early is rushed or made without fully understanding the situation. It might be necessary for him to change his mind. Give him some wiggle room. 7) Try not to compare him to your former pastor. This will not be fully possible of course, and he will struggle in comparing his previous parish to the present. Comparisons will only impede a relationship. 8) Tell him your story, the story of the parish, the traditions, and the important values of the parish. Every parish and tradition in a parish has a story behind it. These stories are important for him to know. 9) When he asks how something is done in the past or what the protocol is, refrain from telling him Whatever you would like Father! We generally want to keep things the way they are and not fix something that is not broken, so don t be afraid to tell him how things operate in the parish. Sometimes a new pastor makes changes without even knowing they have changed anything because no one told him. 10) Let him get to know you and the parish. Be sure to invite him to different parish events. Yes, he sees the bulletin and should know when something is happening but he might not know if he is really wanted. 11) Pray for him and let him know you are praying for him! Consejos prácticos para dar la bienvenida a su nuevo Pastor o Sacerdote 1) Sea paciente con él. El estrés de moverse, el dolor de dejar una parroquia familiar y la novedad de todo esto podría ser un poco para él. 2) Se paciente. No golpee un camino a su puerta. Déle un tiempo para desempacar, arreglar, encontrar todos los baños y conocer nombre de la secretaria. Esto puede tardar un mes o dos, o más... ver # 1. 3) Déle al nuevo sacerdote tiempo de instalarse antes de empezar las invitaciones a cenar... aunque un buen plato de galletas o un arroz con pollo no le hiciera daño. 4) Dígale su nombre y en lo que está involucrado. No haga esto una o dos veces, pero varias veces. No se ofenda si en seis meses o un año después no recuerda su nombre, vuelva a decirle. 5) Asegúrese de que tiene ayuda para mudarse si lo desea. La secretaria parroquial puede saber si necesita ayuda. Algunos sacerdotes aceptan ayuda, otros desean privacidad. Todos son diferentes. 6) Déjalo que cambie de opinión! A veces una decisión tomada temprano es apresurada o hecha sin entender completamente la situación. Podría ser necesario que cambie de opinión. Dale un poco de espacio. 7) Trate de no compararlo con su antiguo pastor. Esto no será totalmente posible, por supuesto, y luchará en comparar su parroquia anterior con el presente. Las comparaciones sólo impedirán una relación. 8) Dígale su historia, la historia de la parroquia, las tradiciones y los valores importantes de la parroquia. Cada parroquia y tradición en una parroquia tiene una historia detrás de ella. Estas historias son importantes para él. 9) Cuando el pregunta cómo se a hecho algo en el pasado o que es el protocolo, abstengan de decirle "Lo que quieras Padre!" En general, queremos mantener las cosas como son y no arreglar algo que no está roto, dile cómo funcionan las cosas en la parroquia. A veces un nuevo pastor hace cambios sin saber que han cambiado algo porque nadie le dijo. 10) Deja que te conozca a ti y a la parroquia. Asegúrese de invitarlo a diferentes eventos de la parroquia. Sí, se sabe que el ve el boletín y debe saber cuando algo está ocurriendo, pero puede que no sepa si realmente lo requieren. 11) Ruega por él y hazle saber que estás orando por él!
