Prayer to Our Holy Guardian Angels

Heavenly Father, Your infinite love for us has chosen a blessed angel in heaven and appointed him our guide during this earthly pilgrimage. Accept our thanks for so great a blessing. Grant that we may experience the assistance of our holy protector in all our necessities. And you, holy, loving angel and guide, watch over us with all the tenderness of your angelic heart. Keep us always on the way that leads to heaven, and cease not to pray for us until we have attained our final destiny, eternal salvation. Then we shall love you for all eternity. We shall praise and glorify you unceasingly for all the good you have done for us while here on earth. Especially be a faithful and watchful protector of our children. Take our place, and supply what may be wanting to us through human frailty, short-sightedness, or sinful neglect. Lighten, O you perfect servants of God, our heavy task. Guide our children that they may become like unto Jesus, may imitate Him faithfully, and persevere till they attain eternal life. Amen.

From the Pastor         

    

Thanks again to all of you on behalf of Bishop Kicanas.  Our Faith, Our Hope, Our Future, Capital Campaign was a great success because of your generosity and desire to be good stewards of God’s gifts.  Holy Angels’ Parish successfully completed the campaign this last week with 237 families responding (71%) and 139 making pledges (41% ) of the parish for a total of $369,975 surpassing our goal of $249,000 to put us at 149%.  Congratulations because this means that if all the pledges are fulfilled we will have raised $109,800 which will be directly returned to Holy Angels.   Holy Angels will be able to draw on this account sometime in April of 2009 as pledges begin to be fulfilled.  We are still receiving pledges which just demonstrates your overall commitment to the mission of the Church.  God Bless you all. 

     This Sunday I am away from the parish again along with children and Parents of Holy Angels School.  We are on mission duty this Sunday at St. George’s in Apache Junction.  Our trip to Payson was great and I know that the people there will respond to our message on the CTSO.  I will be celebrating the Sunday morning masses and the children from Holy Angels School will be singing and proclaiming the Holy Scriptures for the masses.  We will be presenting to the parishioners of St. Georges’  the (CTSO) Catholic Tuition Support Organization, explaining to them what it is and asking them to financially support Holy Angels School through this wonderful program.  The CTSO offers all of us the opportunity to take a dollar for dollar tax credit from the state of Arizona.  Anyone who pays Arizona State Income Tax can participate, and have the choice of giving, for an individual $500 or for joint filers $1000 of your money and giving it to the State of Arizona or to Holy Angels School.  Well I would think this was a no brainer as some would say.  We are asking you as well to consider making a CTSO contribution and take advantage of up to $1000 of your money and decide where you want to spend this money.  I hope the choice is Holy Angels School here in Globe.  You have up to December 31, 2008 to make this contribution.  If you are going to have a state tax liability for 2008 reduce that now by giving some of that to Holy Angels School

     Thanks to all who came to this week’s Parish Catechis on the Gospel of John.  Fr. Jude Eli again enjoyed his time here with us and hopes to be back next year around the same time to finish the second part of the Gospel of John.  The Word of God has become flesh and dwelt among us.  This year the Bishop encourages us even more to delve into the holy scriptures in study and prayer.

 

                                               Yours in Christ,  Fr. Rudy
