Reflections on Life, Faith, and Spirituality.<\/strong><\/p>\n

A Christian community is enriched when its members share with one another their journeys of faith. I would like for this to happen among us. We all have much to offer one another from our experiences in Life, Faith, and our Spiritual Journey.<\/p>\n

Every week I speak with the parish family about many things in the letter that I write: \u201cFrom the Heart.\u201d Now, I would like to add a new letter entitled: \u201cFrom the Soul.\u201d I\u2019m not the one that will write it. I would like to give you the opportunity to share your reflections on what life has taught you, on what faith means to you, and on how your spiritual journey has been.
\nI am sure and positive that so many of you have stories and reflections that can inspire and strengthen others.<\/p>\n

These are treasures that you possess, and I hope that you will share them with the parish family.<\/p>\n

This is how we will do it:
\n1. Write a reflection or meditation about one page long to be sealed in an envelope that you can either mail to the parish office, drop it in the collection basket or drop it off at the parish office. Write on the envelope: \u201cFrom the Soul.\u201d
\n2. You can write it in English or Spanish.
\n3. You do not have to sign it. It can be anonymous.
\n4. Your reflection should inspire people and be a testament to your faith.
\n5. You may relate a personal story and what you learned from the experience.
\n6. It can be a spiritual reflection on any topic.
\n7. It cannot be political.
\n8. It can be a reflection on a spiritual or social topic.
\n9. It must be respectful and offer inspiration.
\n10. The pastor will choose which one to publish and will edit if necessary.<\/p>\n

I will begin to publish them as soon as you start sharing. This can become such a wonderful experience for us all.<\/p>\n

I hope that many will share and that \u201cFrom the Soul\u201d will be with us for a very long time.

Reflexiones sobre la vida, la fe y la espiritualidad.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Una comunidad cristiana se enriquece cuando sus miembros comparten entre s\u00ed sus caminos de fe. Me gustar\u00eda que esto sucediera entre nosotros. Todos tenemos mucho que ofrecernos unos a otros desde nuestras experiencias en la Vida, la Fe y nuestro Camino Espiritual.<\/p>\n

Cada semana hablo con la familia parroquial sobre muchas cosas en la carta que escribo: Desde el Coraz\u00f3n \u201d. Ahora, me gustar\u00eda agregar una nueva carta titulada: Desde el Alma No soy yo quien la escribir\u00e1. Me gustar\u00eda darles la oportunidad de compartir sus reflexiones sobre lo que la vida les ha ense\u00f1ado, sobre lo que significa la fe para ustedes
\ny sobre c\u00f3mo ha sido su camino espiritual.<\/p>\n

Estoy seguro de que muchos de ustedes tienen historias y reflexiones que pueden inspirar y fortalecer a otros. Son tesoros que poseen y espero que los compartan con la familia parroquial.<\/p>\n

As\u00ed es como lo haremos:
\n1. Escribe una reflexi\u00f3n o meditaci\u00f3n de una p\u00e1gina aproximadamente y m\u00e9tela en un sobre cerrado que
\npuedes enviar por correo a la oficina parroquial, dejar en la canasta de colectas o dejarlo en la oficina
\nparroquial. Escribe en el sobre: Desde el alma
\n2. Puedes escribirlo en ingl\u00e9s o espa\u00f1ol.
\n3. No tienes que firmarlo. Puede ser an\u00f3nimo.
\n4. Tu reflexi\u00f3n debe inspirar a las personas y ser un testimonio de tu fe.
\n5. Puedes contar una historia personal y lo que aprendiste de la experiencia.
\n6. Puede ser una reflexi\u00f3n espiritual sobre cualquier tema.
\n7. No puede ser pol\u00edtica.
\n8. Puede ser una reflexi\u00f3n sobre un tema espiritual o social.
\n9. Debe ser respetuosa y ofrecer inspiraci\u00f3n.
\n10. El P\u00e1rroco elegir\u00e1 cu\u00e1l publicar y editar\u00e1 si es necesario.<\/p>\n

Comenzar\u00e9 a publicarlos tan pronto como comiencen a compartirlos. Esto puede convertirse en una experiencia maravillosa para todos nosotros.<\/p>\n

Espero que muchos lo compartan y que Desde el Alma \u201d permanezca con nosotros por mucho tiempo.
