1. We just got some Quotes for NEW PEWS and we are working with those companies to arrange details. The plan is to have the company to include: Delivery, installation, and taxes. So, to avoid extra charges. If you would like to donate ONE PEW together with another family we can honor your family name or in memory of your beloved one for that NEW PEW. Each pew cost $2000 so, 2-4 families can HONOR one full pew and we add your family name on it.

We have been challenged in several aspects we never thought. But, here we are, you and I have been protected by the Holy Spirit presence and by his strength we still standing.

This is the appropriate time to hide ourselves under the NAME OF JESUS. We should remain in prayer in our homes with your beloved ones. You can watch broadcasts the Catholic Mass each Sunday at 9:00am on AZTV Channel 7. You can watch Mass on FACEBOOK and Youtube or any other social media. Probably we are uncertain of our future and about all our recent days in our society and in the world. We are confused, in what to do, what not to do, what its appropriate and what is safe to do. We are vulnerable, weak, lost and confused. It is vital to keep CALM, in all decisions use COMMON SENSE. As many places has been closing, and keeping restrictions, that includes schools. It is not time for vacations
It is time to stay at HOME, do not go outside to socialize or to enjoy free time. BE SAFE AT HOME.
READ MOREDear Brethren,
Jericho's Site begins; 7 days and 7 nights of the One who is LOVE; He presents Himself with ALL His Power to satisfy our thirsty souls. This is an opportunity of conversion, penance and sacrifice.
It is time that helps us to get closer into the Heart of God. In this week of Love, we can experience His Mercy. I invite you to make time for HIM in prayer and contemplation.
There, HE will help you to enter into your own soul so HIS LIGHT must shine within you. He will reveal to you all those areas that are not pleased to HIM.
READ MORELent has arrived. This is the time to make and stop and to reflect in our journey of faith. Every year that pass by we are building up into ourselves many unpleasant situations that harm our relationship with God. Those situations makes harder our journey of grace and authentic peace with our Lord.
On this 2020 we are now living, it's important to make an opportunity to look into our deeds, actions and our way of living. It is so good and necessary that, even in the middle of our own limitations we can say to God: here I am again, I am so sorry for my sins, my falling and I really need your Grace.
Our Lord never get tired to forgive us…. But he will admonish us as a father does with his own child. God desires that you and I should live free from all bondage of sins and from all evil.
READ MOREDear family in Christ;
We just entered into a new Season called ADVENT, we are walking towards Christmas Day, as we are going to commemorate the FIRST Coming of Christ in the flesh.
Keep in mind the importance of prepare yourself every day and every moment possible. His FIRST coming took place to bring salvation and freedom. We are expecting the great PAROUSIA of our Lord; look what is written in the Holy Scriptures (Bible):
Mk 13:26-27… And then they will see 'the Son of Man coming in the clouds' with great power and glory, and then he will send out the angels and gather (his) elect from the four winds, from the end of the earth to the end of the sky.
READ MOREOne Lord, One God, one Catholic Church is the center of our Catholic Faith. Our Lord came to set us free and to rescue our souls from the slavery of sin and evil.
As your pastor of this community of faith, I pray for you and ask the Lord to shower your lives with all type of blessings. We are living into a difficult times; our society is lacking of moral values and a close relationship with Christ. We should remain strong and faithful until the end of our lives. No one has the right to be an obstacle or impediment to stay close to our Lord. Do not listen to any sordid words against our catholic Faith, those who speak against our Church are those how are not living in the truth of Christ.
Having said that, I encourage you to refresh your relationship with CHRIST. To take time to go to confession often (once a month), to attend every Sunday to the Holy Eucharist, to visit the Blessed Sacrament Adoration Chapel, to daily read the Holy Scriptures (Bible) and to pray to the Blessed Virgin Mary. With all of the above I assure you to remain strong and protected.
Sending you my daily blessings,
Padre Carlos
Un Solo Dios, un solo Señor, un solo Bautismo, una Sola Iglesia Católica son el centro de nuestra Fe. Nuestro Señor Jesucristo vino para rescatarnos de la esclavitud del pecado y de satanás.
Yo le pido y oro al Señor que deje caer sobre ustedes y sus vidas todo tipo de bendiciones. Estamos viviendo en tiempos muy difíciles; nuestra sociedad carece de valores morales y de una cercanía con Cristo. Debemos de mantenernos fuertes y fieles hasta el final de nuestras vidas. Nadie tiene el derecho de ser un obstáculo o ser impedimento en nuestra relación con Dios y con nuestra fe. No escuchen palabras vacías de los que no están en nuestra fe. No conocen la verdad en plenitud y nosotros tenemos la verdad de Jesucristo.
Ya que les he dicho estas palabras, les invito que renueven su relación con CRISTO. Tomen tiempo para ir a confesar sus pecados en el sacramento de la Reconciliación (mínimo una vez al mes), asistir a misa los Domingos, visiten el Santísimo Sacramento en la capilla de Adoración, lean las Sagradas Escrituras (Biblia), y oren mucho a Maria Santísima. Con estas recomendaciones, les aseguro que ustedes estarán fuerte y bien protegidos.
Les mando mi bendición diariamente,
Padre Carlos
