PASTOR’S MESSAGE — Matthew Cormier MENSAJE DEL PARROCO– Matthew Cormier IMPORTANT TORCH-RUN ANNOUNCEMENT

It is with a heavy heart that I must announce, that after con-sulting with our neighboring dioceses and with our Bishop, I have made the difficult decision to rescind the invitation to the Guadalupe Torch-Run. The Diocese of Lake Charles and St. Henry Catholic Church will not be participating in this year’s Torch-Run. La Antorcha Guadalupana is, in itself, a wonderful event. The flame, along with images of Our Lady and St. Juan Diego, are carried from the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico City to St. Patrick’s Cathedral in Manhattan. This pilgrimage has for many years been a public testament of faith in the in-tercession of Our Lady of Guadalupe and a public witness of people’s love for her and her Son. Our local Church has always been proud to host the flame, images, and the runners as they pass through our area and we would love to be able to do that this year as well. Sadly, however, in recent years, some superstitious practices have arisen surrounding the Torch-Run. The Catechism of the Catholic Church teaches, “The first commandment forbids honoring gods other than the one Lord who has revealed himself to his people. It pro-scribes superstition and irreligion. Superstition in some sense represents a perverse excess of religion; irreligion is the vice contrary by defect to the virtue of religion. Superstition is the deviation of religious feeling and of the practices this feeling imposes. It can even affect the worship we offer the true God, e.g., when one attributes an importance in some way magical to certain practices otherwise lawful or necessary. To attribute the efficacy of prayers or of sacramen-tal signs to their mere external performance, apart from the interior dispositions that they demand, is to fall into supersti-tion”. (2110-2111) This year, Asociación Tepeyac, which is the organization that organizes the Torch-Run, has asked participating dioceses to send personal information (including photographs) of partici-pants with the intention of using that personal information in ways that are spiritually dangerous. Our Lady of Guadalupe would not want her children to be exposed to evil. As your Pas-tor, your souls have been entrusted to my care. I cannot, in good conscience, expose your souls to such danger. Until this practice is corrected, Catholics should not participate in the Torch-Run or give money to Asociación Tepeyac. Let us pray for those who have introduced these practices. May their eyes be opened to see the danger involved so that, in fu-ture years, faithful Catholics may again participate in this beautiful display of Marian devotion. Knowing how much our community loves to take part in this devotion to Our Blessed Mother, the possibility of hosting our own local Torch-Run style event was discussed. Due to the short-time frame, it was decided against. Instead, let us focus our efforts and energy on other upcoming events. On Novem-ber 12, the Diocese kicks off its first ever Eucharistic Congress with a bilingual prayer vigil at the Civic Center Amphitheatre followed by a candle-light Eucharistic Procession to the Cathe-dral followed by all-night adoration. On Wednesday November 17, there will be a Eucharistic Congress event in Spanish here at St. Henry’s beginning with Mass at 5:30pm followed by ado-ration, confession, and talks by a guest priest. On Sunday, No-vember 21, the Solemnity of Christ the King, there will be a special bilingual Mass at 12:30pm followed by our annual Eu-charistic Procession. Then on December 11, we will celebrate the 25th Anniversary of the Hispanic Community at St. Henry’s with a Mass celebrated by our Bishop. God-willing, there will be a party afterwards. May Our Lady of Guadalupe continue to guide and protect the Hispanic Community in the Diocese of Lake Charles and lead us all to her divine Son.

ANUNCIO INPORTANTE DE LA ANTORCHA GUADALUPANA Con gran tristeza debo anunciar, que después de consultar con nuestras diócesis vecinas y con nuestro Obispo, he tomado la difí-cil decisión de rescindir la invitación a la Carrera de la Antorcha de Guadalupana. La Diócesis de Lake Charles y la Iglesia Católica de San Henry no participarán en la Carrera de la Antorcha de este año. La Antorcha Guadalupana, es, en sí misma, un evento maravillo-so. La llama, junto con imágenes de Nuestra Señora y San Juan Diego, son llevadas desde la Basílica de Nuestra Señora de Guada-lupe en Ciudad de México hasta la Catedral de San Patricio en Manhattan. Esta peregrinación ha sido durante muchos años un testimonio público de fe de la intercesión de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe y un testimonio público del amor de la gente a ella y a su Hijo. Nuestra Iglesia local siempre ha estado orgullosa de al-bergar la llama, las imágenes y los corredores a medida que pasan por nuestra área y nos encantaría poder hacerlo este también año. Sin embargo, lamentablemente, en los últimos años, han surgido algunas prácticas supersticiosas en torno a la Carrera de la Antor-cha. El Catecismo de la Iglesia Católica enseña: “El primer mandamiento prohíbe honrar a dioses distintos del único Señor que se ha revelado a su pueblo. Proscribe la supers-tición y la irreligión. La superstición en cierto sentido representa un exceso perverso de la religión; la irreligión es el vicio contra-rio por defecto a la virtud de la religión. La superstición es la desviación del sentimiento religioso y de las prácticas que este sentimiento impone. Incluso puede afectar la adoración que ofrecemos al Dios verdadero, por ejemplo, cuando uno atribuye una importancia de alguna manera mágica a cier-tas prácticas que de otra manera serían legales o necesarias. Atribuir la eficacia de las oraciones o de los signos sacramenta-les a su mera realización externa, al margen de las disposiciones interiores que exigen, es caer en la superstición". (2110-2111) Este año, la Asociación Tepeyac, que es la organización que orga-niza la Carrera de la Antorcha, ha pedido a las diócesis participan-tes que envíen información personal (incluidas fotografías) de los participantes con la intención de usar esa información personal de maneras que son espiritualmente peligrosas. Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe no querría que sus hijos estuvieran expuestos al mal. Como su Pastor, sus almas han sido confiadas a mi cuidado. No puedo, en buena conciencia, exponer sus almas a tal peligro. Hasta que no se corrija esta práctica, los católicos no deben parti-cipar en la Carrera de la Antorcha ni dar dinero a la Asociación Tepeyac. Oremos por aquellos que han introducido estas prácticas. Que se les abran los ojos para ver el peligro que entraña para que, en los años venidos, los fieles católicos vuelvan a participar en esta her-mosa muestra de devoción Mariana. Sabiendo lo mucho que nuestra comunidad ama participar en esta devoción a Nuestra Santísima Madre, se discutió la posibilidad de organizar nuestro propio evento local de estilo Carrera de la An-torcha. Debido al corto plazo, se decidió no hacerlo. En su lugar, centremos nuestros esfuerzos y energía en otros eventos venide-ros. El 12 de noviembre, la Diócesis inicia su primer Congreso Eucarístico con una vigilia de oración bilingüe en el Anfiteatro del Centro Cívico seguida de una Procesión Eucarística a la luz de las velas a la Catedral seguida de adoración durante toda la noche. El miércoles 17 de noviembre, habrá un evento del Congreso Euca-rístico en español aquí en San Henry comenzando con la Misa a las 5:30pm despues de adoración, confesiones y charlas de un sacerdote invitado. El domingo 21 de noviembre, en la Solemni-dad de Cristo Rey, habrá una misa especial bilingüe a las 12:30pm., seguida de nuestra Procesión Eucarística anual. Luego, el 11 de diciembre, celebraremos el 25 aniversario de la Comuni-dad Hispana en San Henry con una Misa celebrada por nuestro Obispo. Si Dios quiere, habrá una fiesta después. Que Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe continúe guiando y protegien-do a la comunidad hispana en la Diócesis de Lake Charles y nos conduzca a todos a su divino Hijo.

EN NUESTRA DIOCESIS

Prayer for Safety in Hurricane Season O God, Master of this passing world, hear the humble voices of your children. The Sea of Galilee obeyed Your order and returned to its former quietude. You are still the Master of the land and sea. We live in the shadow of a danger over which we have no control; the Gulf, like a provoked and angry giant, can awake from its seeming lethargy and overstep its conventional boundaries, invade our land and spread chaos and disaster. During this hurricane season, we turn to You, O loving Father. Spare us from past tragedies whose memories are still so vivid and whose wounds seem to refuse to heal with the passing of time. O Virgin, Star of the Sea, Our Be-loved Mother, we ask you to plead with your Son in our be-half, so that spared from the calamities common to this area and animated with a true spirit of gratitude, we may walk in the footsteps of your Divine Son to reach the heavenly Jeru-salem where a stormless eternity awaits us. Amen. Oh, Dios, Maestro de este mundo que pasa, escucha las hu-mildes voces de tus hijos. El Mar de Galilea obedeció su or-den y regresó a su antigua quietud; Tu sigues siendo el Maestro de la tierra y el mar. Vivimos a la sombra de un peli-gro sobre el cual no tenemos control. El Golfo, como un gi-gante provocado y enojado, puede despertar de su aparente letargo, sobrepasar sus límites convencionales, invadir nues-tra tierra y propagar el caos y el desastre. Durante esta tem-porada de huracanes, nos dirigimos a Ti, oh Padre amoro-so. Libranos de tragedias pasadas cuyos recuerdos siguen siendo tan vívidos y cuyas heridas parecen negarse a sanar con el paso del tiempo. Oh Virgen, Estrella del Mar, Madre Nuestra Amada, te pedimos que supliques a tu Hijo en nues-tro nombre, para que nos salves de las calamidades comunes a esta zona y animados con un verdadero espíritu de grati-tud, caminemos siguiendo los pasos de tu Hijo Divino para llegar a la Jerusalén celestial donde nos espera una eternidad sin tormentas. Amén.
