RELIGIOUS EDUCATION
Our Catechism teaches that the Eucharist is the source and summit of our faith. We receive the Lord in the Eucharist; it is an act of thanksgiving to God. It recalls the Lord’s Supper with his Apostles. The Eucharist is essential to the communal dimension of our faith. It is the nourishment that enables us to remain spiritually strong and healthy. Please pray for our young parishioners who will be receiving the Sacrament of Eucharist for the first time on May 14th. We give thanks for all the teachers, relatives, and friends of these young parishioners who have helped prepare them for Holy Communion, and who assist them in their future growth in faith through their prayers and actions. We especially thank the parents who are the primary educators of the children in the ways of the faith.
Please note we will have a First Communion celebration on May 14th at the 4:30PM mass.

EDUCACIÓN RELIGIOSA
Nuestro Catecismo enseña que la Eucaristía es la fuente y cumbre de nuestra fe. Cuando recibimos al Señor en la Eucaristía, es un acto de acción de gracias a Dios. Recuerda la Cena del Señor con sus Apóstoles. La Eucaristía es esencial para la dimensión comunitaria de nuestra fe. Es el alimento que nos permite mantenernos espiritualmente fuertes y saludables. Ore por nuestros jóvenes feligreses que recibirán el Sacramento de la Eucaristía por primera vez el 14 de mayo. Damos gracias por todos los maestros, familiares y amigos de estos jóvenes feligreses que los han ayudado a prepararse para la Sagrada Comunión y que los ayudan en su futuro crecimiento en la fe a través de sus oraciones y acciones. Agradecemos especialmente a los padres que son los principales educadores de los niños en los caminos de la fe.
Tenga en cuenta que tendremos celebración de Primera Comunión el 14 de mayo en la misa de las 4:30pm.

- Have you been away from the Church, and have now returned, but want to know more?
- Have you been a Catholic all your life, but never celebrated all the Sacraments of Initiation (Baptism, Confirmation, Eucharist)?

- If you (“or someone you know”) answers YES to any of these questions, you are invited to find out more through process called the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA). It is a journey that begins with your questions.

Our Mission: To facilitate Catechumens (un-baptized adults) and Candidates (un-catechized Catholics) into full communion with the Catholic Church.
Our Catechists: We are always looking for dedicated members of St. Matthew’s Parish to share their faith with people interested in Roman Catholicism. We are always in need of sponsors, Catholics who will journey with the interested parties offering their support in faith, and friendship.
Meetings: Thursday nights 6:30-8:30 includes hospitality, fellowship and learning about our Catholic faith. Sundays after the 10:00 a.m. and Noon masses.

Honoring Mental Health Awareness Month
The St. Dymphna Novena Starts Today! St. Dymphna is the patroness for those who suffer from mental illness. Join us in praying a novena throughout the nine days leading up to her feast day on May 15.
Compassion Fatigue and Resilience: Webinar with Dr. Xavier Cagigas The events in the past year have tested emotional, physical, mental, and spiritual endurance. Experts refer to the exhaustion and depletion that many have felt as compassion fatigue. As guidelines continue to change, restrictions lessen, our families and communities are called to transition and adjust once more. Individuals continue to process grief and trauma from the past year while adapting to a new sense of normalcy. Learn the signs and symptoms of compassion fatigue and how to face each day with resilience and hope.
