August 3 – Monday: Weekday Mystery of the Rosary, Jesus as Light of the World, and connect them Nm 11:4b-15 / Mt 14:13-21 6:15 a.m. Esther Rodriguez “Health” with the public life of Jesus.

August 4 – Tuesday: St. John Vianney, Priest Only three of his disciples, Peter, James and John saw the event that Nm 12:1-13 / Mt 14:22-36 or 15:1-2,10-14 would become the most public act of Jesus, his resurrection from the 6:15 a.m. Frank Banda, III. “Birthday & Health” dead. He charged them to tell no one what they had seen until after + Manuela Villa the resurrection.

Recordemos por un momento que San Juan Pablo II, en el año 25 de August 9 - 19th SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME su pontificado el 16 de octubre, instituyó los Misterios Luminosos del 1 Kgs 19:4-8 7:30 a.m. + Guanbi Po Rosario. Ellos tenían la intención de añadir a los misterios del rosario de la vida pública de Jesús. Jesús declaró ser la luz es un signo maravilloso de Jesús como luz del mundo. En el momento de la Transfiguración fue una luz brillante. Yo nos invitó en este mensaje reflexionar sobre estas piezas: La LET US PRAY FOR THE FOLLOWING MEMBERS OF OUR Transfiguración como el Cuarto Misterio del Rosario, a Jesús como luz PARISH: del mundo, y su conexión con la vida pública de Jesús. Alice Aguallo, Arnold Alejandro, Abel Algueseva, Paul Algueseva, Ruben Alvarado, Olga Bustamante, John Delgalo, Joseph C. Diaz, Sólo tres de sus discípulos, Pedro, Santiago y Juan vieron el evento Evangeline Dubois, Lucille Dyess, John Andrew Elizondo, Henry que fuera el acto más público de Jesús, su resurrección de entre los Flores, Jr., Louis Flores, Severa Galan, Nacho & Fina Garcia, Lucy Golla, Mary Contreras, John V. Gonzales, Lina Gonzales, Lucy muertos. Denunció los tres a decir a nadie lo que habían visto hasta Gonzales, Richard Gonzalez, Bertha Gutierrez, Ruby Hermis, Anita después de la resurrección. En cuanto a ellos y los que oyeran de lo Hernandez, Yvonne B. Hernandez, Mayra Islas, Edward J. Jaramillo, sucedido, la Transfiguración es la clave para entender la resurrección. Sr., Yvette Alonzo Lopez, Clemencia Martinez, David W. & Christina Martinez, Deacon Rudy C. Medrano, Gary Mendoza, Regla Navarro, Creo que el capítulo 5 de la carta a los Efesios nos ayuda a entender la Estel Orozco, Jesse Ortega, Tina R. Padilla, Natalie H. Pruitt, Fernando Ramirez, Robert Ramirez, Linda Mae Ramos, Michael Rangel, Raquel nueva vida que tenemos en el Cristo resucitado que “te alumbrará”. El Raymond, Natividad Regalado, Lupe Reyes, Esther Rodriguez, Joe versículo 8 es rico, “otro tiempo erais tinieblas, mas ahora sois luz en el Mark Rodriguez, Margaret Salazar, Deacon Richard Salazar, Inez Solis, Señor; andad como hijos de luz (porque el fruto de la luz consiste en David Valles, Jr., Margarita Vasquez, Evaristo Vega, Frank Villarreal, Lucy Villarreal, Theresa Villarreal, Phil Welsh, Helen & Earl West toda bondad, justicia y verdad)”. Voy a concluir con una declaración de San Juan Pablo II, ….”el Rosario es la verdadera puerta de entrada a las profundidades del Corazón de Cristo, océano de la alegría y de la luz, del sufrimiento y de la gloria”. We extend our sympathy to the families, relatives and friends of Yolanda Valadez, Lucille R. Martinez and Victor T. Hernandez. May our Lord grant them everlasting life.
