Dear Parishioners,
We begin this month of October by honoring the memory of a great saint: Therese of Lisieux, more known as the Little Flower or Therese of the Child Jesus, whose feast day falls on October 1st. You probably have seen her image located in the back of the church. As we celebrate God’s great gift of life, during this Respect Life month, let me present to you a remarkable event in the life of Saint Therese’s parents when they decided to honor life in the midst of uncertainty but confident in God’s love.
Mr. Louis Martin and Azelie Guerin already had eight children before Therese was born. Their first daughter was Marie-Louise who later became Sister Marie of the Sacred Heart in the Carmelite monastery of Lisieux. The second child was Marie-Pauline who also joined the Carmelites and who was the superior of the monastery at the time that Saint Therese entered into the convent. The third child was Marie-Leonie who also decided to become a nun at the Visitation of Caen. The fourth child was Marie-Helene, who unfortunately died six years later. When Azelie was pregnant with their fifth child, Joseph, all were very happy to receive the first boy in the family. The parents hoped he could be a priest someday, however the child died when he was only four months old. The sixth child was also a boy, Jean-Baptiste, who died when he was eight months old. After three consecutive deaths, Louis and Azelie prayed to have another child and they were radiant when Marie-Celine was born who interestingly enough also joined the Carmelites and become a nun with her other sisters. A year later Azelie was pregnant again with their eighth child, Melanie Therese, she only lived for two months.
After the lost of four children, Louis and Azelie were considering having another child and were hoping to have another boy. Friends of Azelie advised her not to risk her life since she was already poor of health and was 41 years old. But Louis and Azelie trusted in God’s Providence. There is a letter from Azelie to one of her friends where she wrote that they knew God would not abandon them and if He had given them strength to cope with the loss of their children and the love to raise their four daughters, they happily were open to receive another child. So they decided to have their ninth child who later became our Saint Therese; born on January 2nd 1873 and whose baptismal name was Marie-Francoise Therese.
May Saint Therese’s protection guide men and women of all ages to Respect Life at all times from the moment of conception to natural death.
In Jesus and Mary,
Queridos Feligreses,
Comenzamos este mes de octubre honrando la memoria de una gran santa: Teresa de Lisieux, mayor mente
conocida como Sana Teresita del Niño Jesús cuya fiesta cae en octubre 1. Usted probablemente ha visto su
imagen en la parte de atrás de la iglesia.
Al celebrar la gran don de la vida durante este mes del Respeto a la Vida, déjenme presentarles un momento
importante en la vida de los papás de Santa Teresita del Niño Jesús cuando ellos decidieron horrar la vida en
medio de incertidumbres pero confiados en Dios.
El Señor Luis y Celia, tenían ocho hijos antes que la futura Santa Teresita naciera. Su primera hija fue María quien
quiso ser religiosa en el monasterio Carmelitano de la ciudad de Lisieux. La segunda hija fue Paulina quien
también entro de monja en el mismo monasterio y fue superiora de Santa Teresita cuando ésta entro en el
mismo convento. La tercera hija fue Leonia quien decidió también ser religiosa pero en las Monjas de la Visitación
en la ciudad de Caen. La cuarta hija fue Elena quien desafortunadamente murió a los seis años. Cuando Celia
estaba embarazada de su quinto hijo, Jose, la familia estaba muy contenta por tener el primer varón, pues los
papás confiaban que él podría ser un sacerdote, pero este niño murió a los cuatro meses de haber nacido. Luego, el
sexto niño fue Juan Bautista quien también murió a temprana edad, con tan solo ocho meses. Después de
estas tres consecutivas muertes consecutivas Luis y Celia rezaron para tener otro hijo y fue así como nació Celina
quien maravillosamente quiso entrar en el convento y unirse a sus hermanas. Un año más tarde Celia quedó
embarazada de su octavo hijo quien fue llamada Melania Teresa, pero ella murió a los dos meses de nacida.
Después de cuatro muertes de hijos, Luis y Celia estaban considerando tener otro hijo y esperaban que fuera un
niño, pero las amigas de Celia le insistían que no tuviera más hijos pues ella estaba de muy pobre de salud y ya tenía 41 años y habría el peligro que ella muriera. Pero Luis y Celia confiaron en la Providencia Divina y sabían que Dios no los abandonaría. Incluso Celia le escribió a
una de sus amigas que si Dios le había dado la fortaleza de resistir la muerte de cuatro hijos y el amor para educar a las cuatro hijas, Él mismo les daría la alegría de recibir a
otro hijo. Y así fue como encargaron a su noveno hijo quien sería la futura Santa Teresita cuyo nombre de bautismo fue María Francisca Teresa, nacida el 2 de
enero de 1873.
Que la protección de Santa Teresita guíe a los hombres y mujeres de todas las edades a respetar la vida desde el
momento de la concepción hasta la muerte natural.
En Jesús y Mariá,
From the Pastor

Please pray for our sister in Christ who was born to eternal life:
Lois Galante
Grant eternal rest unto her O Lord, and may perpetual light shine upon her, and through the mercy of God,
rest in peace.
Amen.
