When incense is used at Mass, it adds solemnity.
In the Old Testament, to burn something was to
give it to God. The smoke symbolizes our
pray-ers rising to God.

A NEW NAME
Every parish within the Archdiocese of New
York – and indeed throughout the country – is a
community of faith, but is also incorporated
civil-ly. As part of the process of Making All Things
New, the par ishes of Saint Peter , Assumption,
and Saint Paul, which were incorporated as three
separate entities, were brought together as one
community of faith. As of September 1, 2016
they will be merged into a new civic entity as
well. The new name that has been given to us by
the Archdiocese is “The Roman Catholic
Church of Saints Peter and Paul and
Assump-tion.”
We have also received indications that the
possi-bility exists of renaming our new community in
the near future. Suggestions that have already
been put forward include: Corpus Christi, St.
Elizabeth Ann Seton, St. John Paul II, St. Teresa
of Calcutta, and St. John XXIII. Do you have
other suggestions? Please think and pray about
this idea so that when the time comes we will be
able to make a decision that will help us continue
to come together with one mind and one heart in
Jesus Christ.
UN NUEVO NOMBRE
Cada parroquia dentro de la Arquidiócesis de
Nueva York - y de hecho en todo el país es una
comunidad de fe, pero tambíen incorpora el civil.
Como parte del proceso Haciendo Todas las
Co-sas Nuevas, las parroquías San Pedro, Asuncíon y
San Pablo, que fueron incorporados como tres
entidades separadas, fueron unidos como una
co-munidad de fe. A partir de el primero de
Septiem-bre del 2016 serán unidos en una nueva entidad
civica tambien. El nuevo nombre que se ha dado
a nosotros por la Arquidiócesis es la Iglesia
Católica Romana de San Pedro y Pablo y
Asunción.
Tambíen hemos recivido indicaciones que existe
la posibilidad que el nombre de nuestra
comuni-dad sera cambiado en el futuro. Sugerencias que
se han presentado uncluyen ; Corpus Christi,
San-ta Elizabeth Ann Seton, San Juan Pablo II, SanSan-ta
Teresa de Culcutta y San Juan XXIII. ¿Tiene
ust-ed otra sugerencia? Por favor reflexionen y oren
acerca de esta idea, para que cuando llegue el
mo-mento seamos capaz de tomar la decisión que nos
ayudara a seguir unidos con un sola mente y un
solo corazón en Jesucristo.

Prayer of Pope Francis for the Jubilee Year of Mercy
Lord Jesus Christ, you have taught us to be merciful like the heavenly Father, and have told us that whoever sees you sees Him. Show us your face and we will be saved. Your loving gaze freed Zacchaeus and Matthew from being en-slaved by money; the adulteress and Magdalene from seeking happiness only in created things; made Peter weep after his betrayal, and assured Paradise to the repentant thief. Let us hear, as if addressed to each one of us, the words that you spoke to the Samaritan woman: “If you knew the gift of God!”
You are the visible face of the invisible Father, of the God who manifests his power above all by forgiveness and mercy: let the Church be your visible face in the world, its Lord risen and glorified. You willed that your ministers would also be clothed in weakness in order that they may feel compassion for those in ignorance and error: let everyone who approaches them feel sought after, loved, and forgiven by God.
Send your Spirit and consecrate every one of us with its anointing, so that the Jubilee of Mercy may be a year of grace from the Lord, and your Church, with renewed enthusi-asm, may bring good news to the poor, proclaim liberty to captives and the oppressed, and restore sight to the blind.
We ask this through the intercession of Mary, Mother of Mercy, you who live and reign with the Father and the Ho-ly Spirit for ever and ever. Amen.
Oracion del Papa Francisco para el Jubileo del Año de la Misericordia
Señor Jesucristo, tú nos has enseñado a ser misericor-diosos como el Padre del cielo, y nos has dicho que quien te ve, lo ve también a Él. Muéstranos tu rostro y obtendremos la salvación. Tu mirada llena de amor liberó a Zaqueo y a Mateo de la esclavitud del dinero; a la adúltera y a la Magda-lena del buscar la felicidad solamente en una creatura; hizo llorar a Pedro luego de la traición, y aseguró el Paraíso al ladrón arrepentido. Haz que cada uno de nosotros escuche como propia la palabra que dijiste a la samaritana:
¡Si conocieras el don de Dios!
Tú eres el rostro visible del Padre invisible, del Dios que manifiesta su omnipotencia sobre todo con el perdón y la misericordia: haz que, en el mundo, la Iglesia sea el rostro visible de Ti, su Señor, resucitado y glorioso. Tú has querido que también tus ministros fueran revestidos de debilidad para que sientan sincera compasión por los que se encuentran en la ignorancia o en el error: haz que quien se acerque a uno de ellos se sienta esperado, amado y perdonado por Dios. Manda tu Espíritu y conságranos a todos con su un-ción para que el Jubileo de la Misericordia sea un año de gra-cia del Señor y tu Iglesia pueda, con renovado entusiasmo, llevar la Buena Nueva a los pobres proclamar la libertad a los prisioneros y oprimidos y restituir la vista a los ciegos. Te lo pedimos por intercesión de María, Madre de la Misericordia, a ti que vives y reinas con el Padre y el Espíritu Santo por los siglos de los siglos. Amén.
