Mission Statement

Our Lady of Mount Carmel Parish is a Christ-centered community in the Roman Catholic tradition. We try to share the Good News of salvation with others. As a diverse community, we value and respect individual differences. As God’s people, we gather in the Spirit to pray, to celebrate the sacraments, to teach, to learn, to console, to rejoice, to minister and to renew our faith with one another.

NOTES FROM THE PASTOR /NOTAS DEL PARROCO

It is very obvious to anyone who reads the Gospels

care-fully that our Lord Jesus had a special concern for the poor, and not only for the materially poor, but also for the marginalized, the sick and disabled, and all the least

fortu-nate people of society. Through his mira-cles and his preaching, Jesus demonstrated that we too need to share this concern for others. This is what he taught his disci-ples while he lived on earth, and this is what he wants us, his disciples today, to express in our lives. Our Church, which is the visible Body of Christ in the world, must continue to promote Christ’s teachings, especially his teachings which emphasize our obligation to care for one another, particu-larly the most vulnerable members of our communities. When asked what was the greatest of all the command-ments, Jesus said, first, to love God with our whole heart, soul, and mind and, second, to love our neighbor as our-selves. All the other commandments depend on these. Throughout the twenty centuries of Christian history, the Church has generally taken this commandment very seri-ously. In the early days of the Church, it was the special duty of deacons to look after widows, orphans, the elderly and the very sick of the community. As the Church devel-oped, some of these tasks were taken over by the monas-teries. We know that the monasteries of the Middle Ages provided shelter for travelers, food for the very poor, edu-cation for children, and medical attention for the sick. Later, up to our own times, the different religious orders of nuns or sisters have taken as their special apostolate the care of the sick and the elderly, the education of children, and providing for needs of the poor. Our Holy Father, Pope Francis, has emphasized that it the duty of all of us as individual Christians to assume social responsibilities, to make it our own concern to care for the poorest and most vulnerable among us, as well as to protect our fragile planet from further harm. It is too easy to become dis-couraged and to feel that little can be done about the im-mense problems that plague our world. We feel we aren’t powerful enough or important enough to make a differ-ence. But the truth is that we are the summit of God’s earthly creation and when we act as members of the Body of Christ, everything is possible. In his recent Encyclical,

Laudato Si, Pope Francis concludes with this prayer:

“ God of love, show us our place in this world
as chan-nels of your love
for all the creatures of this earth, 
 for not one of them is forgotten in your sight. 
 Enlighten those who possess power and money
that they may avoid the sin of indifference, 
that they may love the common good, advance the weak, 
and care for this world in which we live. 
The poor and the earth are crying out. 
O Lord, seize us with your power and light, 
help us to protect all life, 
to prepare for a better future, 
for the coming of your Kingdom
of justice, peace, love and beauty.” Amen!

Es muy obvio para cualquiera que lee los Evangelios cui-dadosamente que nuestro Señor Jesús tenía una preocu-pación especial por los pobres, y no sólo para los pobres materialmente, sino también para los marginados, los

enfermos y los discapacitados, y todas las personas menos afor-tunadas de la sociedad. A través de sus milagros y su predica-ción, Jesús demostró que tam-bién nosotros necesitamos compartir esta preocupación por los demás. Esto es lo que él enseñó a sus discípulos mien-tras vivió en la tierra, y esto es lo que nosotros, sus discí-pulos de hoy, queremos expresar en nuestras vidas. Nuestra Iglesia, que es el Cuerpo visible de Cristo en el mundo, debe seguir promoviendo las enseñanzas de Cris-to, sobre todo sus enseñanzas que enfatizan nuestra obli-gación de cuidar a otros, particularmente a los miembros más vulnerables de nuestras comunidades. Cuando se le preguntó cuál era el más grande de todos los mandamien-tos, Jesús dijo, en primer lugar, de amar a Dios con todo nuestro corazón, alma y mente y, segundo, a amar a nues-tro prójimo como a nosonues-tros mismos. Todos los onues-tros mandamientos dependen de éste. A lo largo de los veinte siglos de la historia cristiana, la Iglesia ha tomado en serio este mandamiento. En los primeros días de la Iglesia, era el trabajo especial de los diáconos cuidar a las viudas, los huérfanos, los ancianos y los muy enfermos de la comu-nidad. A medida que la Iglesia seguía desarrollando, algu-nas de estas tareas fueron asumidas por los moalgu-nasterios. Sabemos que los monasterios de la Edad Media siempre servían como refugio para los viajeros, alimentaban a los pobres, ofrecían educación a los niños, y atención médica a los enfermos. Más tarde, hasta nuestros días, las dife-rentes órdenes religiosas de monjas o hermanas han to-mado como su apostolado especial el cuidado de los en-fermos, ancianos, la educación de los niños, y que pro-veen las necesidades de los pobres. Nuestro Santo Padre Francisco, ha hecho hincapié que el deber de todos noso-tros como cristianos individuales es asumir responsabili-dades sociales, y hacer nuestra propia preocupación el cuidado de los más pobres y los más vulnerables entre nosotros, y también proteger nuestro frágil planeta contra más daños. Es fácil desanimarse y sentir que poco se pue-de hacer acerca pue-de los inmensos problemas que afectan a nuestro mundo. Nosotros sentimos que no somos lo su-ficientemente potentes o lo susu-ficientemente importantes como para hacer una diferencia. Pero la verdad es que somos la cumbre de la creación terrenal de Dios y cuan-do actuamos como miembros del Cuerpo de Cristo, tocuan-do es posible. En su reciente encíclica, Laudato Si, Francisco concluye con esta oración:
