CAMPAÑA CATOLICA DEL ARZOBISPO

Al 29 de abril de 2022, alcanzamos el 74.9 % de nuestra meta de ACA de $91 424. Necesitamos otros $22,953. ¡Gracias a los 205 feligreses genero-sos que ya han donado o se han comprometido! La Campaña Católica del Arzobispo (ACA) apoya los ministerios de la Arquidiócesis en el oeste de Ore-gón, incluidos los ministerios pastorales y el cuidado del sacerdocio. El tema de la Campaña Católica del Arzobispo de 2022 es “Una Iglesia, Unida en Cristo”. Como muchos de ustedes saben, el Arzobispo es enviado a la Diócesis por la Santa Sede como Maes-tro de la Fe Católica. A su vez, envía sacerdotes a las parroquias para que sean sus vicarios y maestros de

The City of Hillsboro is seeking volunteer chaplains to assist its police and fire departments. Volunteer Public Safety Chaplains respond to emergency scenes to support community members experienc-ing a life tragedy, and provide resources, infor-mation, and spiritual guidance as requested. Chaplains provide coverage 24/7 within the City of Hillsboro. They take shifts throughout the month. Specialized training is required and provided at no cost to volunteers. For more information, call Hills-boro Fire Chaplain, Chris Wade at (503) 707-9660 or email: [email protected]. La ciudad de Hillsboro está buscando capellanes vol-untarios para ayudar a los departamentos de policía y bomberos. Los capellanes voluntarios de seguridad pública responden a las situaciones de emergencia para apoyar a aquellos que experimentan una tra-gedia y brindan recursos, información y orientación espiritual. Los capellanes toman turnos durante el mes. Se requiere capacitación especializada y se proporciona sin costo alguno para los voluntarios. Para más información, llame al capellán de bomber-os de Hillsboro, Chris Wade, al (503) 707-9660 o a: [email protected].

BECOME A CHAPLAIN la fe católica. Sin embargo, muchas parroquias, de-bido a su tamaño y apoyo financiero, no pueden cumplir con todas las importantes responsabilida-des ministeriales. Cada año se evalúan los ministerios parroquiales financiados por la Campaña Católica del Arzobispo para determinar su necesidad de apoyo. Luego, los fondos se asignan a aquellos que califican. Se da prioridad inmediata para brindar apoyo a los minis-terios y programas que requieren fondos de la Cam-paña para continuar operando. Luego, los fondos se ponen a disposición de los ministerios parroquiales restantes de acuerdo con las necesidades del pro-grama. Los ministerios pastorales difunden la palabra de Jesús a todas las personas en cada paso de su viaje espiritual. Los ministros traen activamente el amor de Dios a la vida de las personas al brindar atención de apoyo a los enfermos o que sufren, a las perso-nas con discapacidades, a las personas sordas y a las que están en prisión. La ACA también provee para las Órdenes Sagradas cuidando a los sacerdotes jubilados, educando a la próxima generación de sacerdotes y apoyando el diaconado permanente. Si aún no ha hecho su donación o compromiso con la ACA, reflexione en oración sobre lo que Dios le da a diario y considere cuánto regresará para promo-ver Su trabajo en su Arquidiócesis. Complete y devuelva el sobre de compromiso que la Arquidiócesis le envió por correo en febrero. Si no tiene un compromiso / sobre, recoja uno en las me-sas de entrada en la iglesia o en la oficina parro-quial. Puede hacer un compromiso o realizar pagos en línea de su compromiso actual. Simplemente va-ya a https://osd.archdpdx.org/ y haga clic en la pes-taña de la Campaña Católica del Arzobispo. En nombre de esos ministerios que están apoyando tanto espiritual como materialmente, les ofrecemos nuestro sincero aprecio y gratitud. ¡Que Dios conti-núe bendiciendo a la Parroquia de San Mateo!

HOSPITALITY

Are you more of an extrovert? Do you love meeting new people? Do you like to say HI to everyone you meet? Do you think our parish could be more welcoming? If yes, we have a number of ways you can put radi-cal hospitality into action at Saint Matthew. Hospitality at Sunday Mass . Sunday Morning Parish Hall Hospitality once a

month. Contacting new parishioners to welcome them

into the community. Contact Fr. Juan at: [email protected] to learn more.

The Homebound Ministry brings the Eucharist to our parish members who are unable to join our community at Sunday Mass. Although, the typical homebound members are St. Matthew senior pa-rishioners, our homebound visits also include those with physical challenges, ill or persons in rehabilita-tion. The Homebound Ministers go in person to vis-it, conduct Communion services at residential care and rehabilitation facilities. The Homebound minis-try is committed to serving our extended communi-ty. To request a visit by a homebound minister, con-tact Sandy Zajdel at (503) 277-8645 . Become a Homebound Minister: Is God calling you to bring Christ in the Eucharist to those unable to join us for Sunday Mass? Homebound Ministers re-ceive Initial Training and Ongoing Support as they perform this important and rewarding service to others. Contact Sandy Zajdel at (503) 277-8645 .

ACA UPDATE

As of April 29, 2022, we have reached 74.9% of our ACA goal of $91,424. We need another $22,953. Thank you to the 205 generous parishioners who have already donated or pledged! The Archbishop's Catholic Appeal (ACA) supports the ministries in western Oregon - including pasto-ral ministries and care for the priesthood. As many of you know, the Archbishop is sent to the Diocese by the Holy See as the Teacher of the Cath-olic Faith. In turn, he sends out priests to the parish-es to be his vicars and teachers of the Catholic Faith. However, many parishes because of their size and financial support are unable to provide for all of the important ministerial responsibilities. Each year the parish-based ministries funded by the Archbishop’s Catholic Appeal are evaluated in order to determine their need for support. Funds are then allocated to those that qualify. Immediate priority is given to provide support to the ministries and pro-grams which require Appeal funds to continue oper-ating. Funds are then made available to the remain-ing parish-based ministries according to needs. Pastoral ministries spread the word of Jesus to all people in every step of their spiritual journey. The ministers actively bring the love of God into peo-ple's lives by providing supportive care to those who are sick or suffering, people with disabili-ties, people who are deaf, and those in prison. The ACA also provides for the Holy Orders by caring for retired priests, educating the next generation of priests, and supporting the permanent diaconate. If you have not yet made your donation or pledge to the ACA, please reflect upon what God gives you on a daily basis and consider how much you will return to further His work in your Archdiocese. Please fill out and return the pledge envelope that the Archdiocese mailed to you in February. If you do not have a pledge / envelope, please pick one up the entrance tables in the church or in the parish office. You can make a pledge or make payments on your current pledge online. Just go to https://osd.archdpdx.org/ and click on the Archbishop’s Catholic Appeal tab. On behalf of those ministries you are supporting both spiritually and materially, we offer our heartfelt appreciation and gratitude. May God con-tinue to bless St. Matthew Parish.
