CHRIST THE REDEEMER CATHOLIC CHURCH 

HOUSTON, TEXAS September 30, 2012 

Dear friends in Christ, 

My sincere thanks to all of you who turned in your Stewardship 

Commitment cards last weekend at Mass. We had a 

great response and more are coming into the office each day. 

It is never too late for a response to Stewardship, so if you 

still have your card, could I ask that you please return it 

ASAP, either by dropping it in the collection or bringing it (or 

mailing) it to the office? As always we’re asking every family 

to participate in Stewardship. We’re off to a great start so do 

your part in committing your time, talent and treasure. Thank 

you everyone. 

As I mentioned last week the Stewardship Commitment 

cards will be processed in the next week. Recall that the Time 

and Treasure portion is for you to track and I hope that you 

are more committed to living Stewardship every day as a result 

of it. As for the Talent portion we will tabulate who signed 

up for various ministries and then the ministry heads will 

begin contact those interested in the next few weeks. We are 

able to track those have signed up through a software program, 

so if you signed up for a particular ministry, we’ll get 

your contact information to the ministry head and you can 

expect a call or e-mail in the coming weeks. If you don’t hear 

from someone by the end of October, please let us know. If 

you have made a pledge of Stewardship it is incumbent upon 

those who head the ministries to make sure we follow up with 

you. I don’t want anyone to feel that your offer of Stewardship 

is not honored, respected, and most of all, needed. 

This weekend we are offering a sneak preview of the new 

Parish Life Center after all the masses. We still have about 

three more months of construction before it is completed 

around Christmas, but this is an opportunity to come take a 

brief tour and see what it looks like in the unfinished stage. 

It’s like doing a walk-thru on a house under construction. 

You’ll get to see the big empty space without any of the finishes 

yet, but it will give you an idea about the scope of the 

building. It’s looking terrific! We’re all excited about the progress 

that’s been made and it is going to be a most welcomed 

addition to our parish. We have needed a building like 

this to be able to meet the current demands of the parish and 

prepare us for even more growth in the future. 

As you look around this weekend keep in mind that it a) 

was all made possible by the generous stewardship of parishioners 

like you to our Capital Campaign, and b) that it is far 

from paid for! The total construction cost is right around $12 

million. Our Capital Campaign has raised about $5.9 million in 

pledges so far. Our goal is $6 million for this first phase, so 

we still have a little more work to do in that area. The remaining 

$6 million will be tackled through a future campaign and 

from our general operating budget in coming years. And while 

our debt service is low at two percent, we want to be able to 

pay off our loan in a timely manner. 

So remember as you tour the new PLC that your financial 

contribution toward it is very much needed. We still have only 

about 25 percent of our 5,300 families who have made a 

pledge. If you have not yet joined us in contributing to the 

construction of the PLC we ask that you join us in this historic 

effort for our parish. Everyone will benefit from this new building 

— it will be used by young and old alike — and we all 

have a responsibility to make it come to fruition. We’ll have 

Capital Campaign pledge cards available at the tour, and 

we’ll also be conducting a parish-wide effort to get us to our 

first goal later in November. Gifts of all sizes are most needed 

and appreciated. 

We began our new Religious Education school year last 

week with more than 2,450 children registered in our classes. 

That’s just a staggering number of children, and it will go up 

by a few more when we hold last registration on Oct. 4 (space 

is obviously limited, but we’ll try to accommodate as many as 

we can). Our first week came and went without too many 

problems and complications, and that’s thanks to the tireless 

dedication of our RE staff on behalf of all of you. Please join 

me in thanking Debbie Jones, our Director of Religious Education, 

and her staff of Michelle Costa, Jill Dimiceli, Debbie 

Hawkins and Joyce Truax. Parents I ask that you please help 

these fine ladies by bringing your children each Sunday, and 

by supporting your children’s teachers. It is not easy to manage 

that many children and that many classes. Think of it — 

it’s like we are running a very large school each week. Think 

about how many aides and support staff work at the local Cy- 

Fair schools, and here we are trying to offer the same educational 

experience for the Catholic faith. We really need our 

parents to support the staff and lend a hand when you can. 

Please also try to work with the class assignment you have 

received. We simply cannot switch children from one class to 

the next without upsetting the entire system. We are all in this 

together and I’d ask that you help us help your children by 

being present and on-time for class. It’s also important that 

parents remind your children of the importance of respectful 

behavior in class. RE classes are not time to goof off and act 

silly. We usually don’t have too many problems, but when we 

do it can make for a trying day for our teachers, aides, staff 

and volunteers. Let’s work together and cooperate with one 

another so that we can have a faith-filled year and help our 

children grow in their relationship with the Lord. 

Remember that our annual CtR Golf Tournament is just a 

few weeks away on Monday, October 15. All golfers are invited 

out to Longwood Golf Club, which is conveniently located 

just a few minutes from the parish. Entry fee is only $125 and 

we have room for foursomes and single players. It includes 

lunch, dinner and plenty of fun along the way. The Knights of 

Columbus do a great job of hosting it each year and the proceeds 

go to benefit CAM and youth scholarships from the 

parish. Pass the word to your co-workers and friends who 

might be golfers and come join us for a great day on the links. 

See our CtR website for more info and registration form. 

Finally, next Saturday, Oct. 6 at 10:30 am we will host our 

annual Blessing of Animals in honor of St. Francis of Assisi, 

who of course was friend to all of God’s creatures and is the 

patron saint of animals. We always hold the blessing on the 

closest Saturday to St. Francis’ feast day of Oct. 4, so join us 

next Saturday in the back parking (nee, barking) lot near the 

mailbox. All creatures, great and small, are welcome to attend. 

We always have a lot of dogs, a few cats, some fish, a 

hamster or two and a menagerie of other creatures. It’s always 

a lot of fun to meet you and your pets so make plans to 

join us. 

Peace, 

Fr. Sean

Stewardship Corner 

St. James warns in today’s second reading that those who 

hoard their wealth and live only for themselves will be condemned. 

But in the Gospel, Jesus assures us that all who 

give of themselves for His sake will be rewarded. 

Prayer Blanket Ministry 

The Prayer Blanket Ministry involves sewing lap sized 

blankets for members of our parish who are in 

need of physical or emotional healing. This is 

a solitary ministry. Seamstresses are needed 

to sew and pray over the blankets during their 

assembly. Blankets are also blessed at the 

monthly healing Mass. There is also a need for nonsewers 

in this group.

LITURGICAL MUSIC 

Youth Singers of Christ the Redeemer 

Today marks the first time this fall that the Youth Singers 

will lead the music at the 11:00 mass. The Youth Singers 

is a choir made up of students in grades 8-12, as well 

as early college students. These young people love music 

and want to contribute to the parish liturgy by sharing their 

musical gifts. 

The National Federation for Catholic Youth Ministry, in 

its document, From Age to Age: The Challenge of Worship 

with Adolescents, states that, “Our aim is to encourage and 

support youth involvement in the Christian lifestyle, in the 

liturgical ministries, and in the assembly.” (no. 11) “They 

give witness that in these new generations, Christ is still 

proclaiming his gospel and the people are responding to 

God by both song and prayer. The faith experiences of adolescents 

enrich our own sense of the continuing presence 

of Christ’s Spirit in the world and give us hope.” 

Young people are not just the “future church”; they are 

members of the church now. As such, they have the right 

and duty by reason of their baptism to be involved in ministry. 

The members of the Youth Singers understand this. 

While they have fun at rehearsals and enjoy singing with 

one another, they are also learning their role as leaders in 

the music ministry. You will hear one of the singers give the 

Responsorial Psalm today and most times that the group 

sings. This is leadership in prayer for the entire community, 

young and old alike. 

The NFCYM states that the youth should experience 

and participate in liturgy with the whole Body of Christ, 

young and old and everyone in between. 

I hope that you will find hope in the ministry of these 

young people, and that you will encourage the youth of our 

parish to participate in the liturgy to the fullest extent. 

Peace and love, 

Bridget Wenk 

The Youth Singers meet on 

Monday evenings, 5:45-7:15 in the church. We sing at 

the 11:00 mass on Sundays about twice a month, sometimes 

alone, sometimes combined with the Choristers. 

Please join us! For more information contact me: 

bwenk@ctrcc.com. You can also find us on the parish 

website. 


LITURGY 

Receiving Communion 

For ten months we have been saying and singing new responses 

in Mass due to the new translation of the Roman 

Missal. The new translation has caused many of us to listen 

more attentively and to pay more attention to parts of the 

Mass. Most of the ways we celebrate Mass did not change 

and for those parts we do the same old, same old. Some 

times when we do same old, same old, we get a little lax, 

begin to take shortcuts or forget how we are supposed to do 

things. The way we are to receive Holy Communion did not 

change with the new translation and for this time I would like 

to review and reflect a little on how we are to receive the Precious 

Body and Blood of our Lord. 

After we recite “Lord, I am not worthy that you should enter 

under my roof, but only say the word and my soul shall be 

healed,” we kneel and wait for the ministers to begin to distribute 

communion. We come out of our pews and form a 

procession to the ministers of Holy Communion to receive the 

Body and Blood of Christ. In the United States, the normative 

posture for receiving communion is standing. Because we 

are “in procession” kneeling or genuflecting is discouraged 

because of the possibility of the person behind tripping or 

falling over the person in front of them. The General Instruction 

of the Roman Missal also emphasizes uniformity of posture 

among participants gathered at Mass. Kneeling or genuflecting 

while everyone else receives standing conflicts with 

the communal nature of Mass. 

Each person is to bow their heads as a sign of reverence before 

receiving the Blessed Sacrament. This may be done 

immediately before receiving or as the person in front of you 

is receiving. As you approach the minister they will say “The 

Body or the Blood of Christ” to which you respond, “Amen.” 

There are two ways of receiving Holy Communion: in the 

hand or on the tongue. If you are receiving in the hand, as 

St. John Chrysostom said, “place your right hand under your 

left to make a throne for the King…. The Eucharist is a gift to 

be received not something that is to be taken.” We are to 

receive the Eucharist from the hand of the minister not to take 

it for ourselves. After you have consumed the host proceed to 

the Precious Blood. If you are receiving on the tongue, open 

your mouth wide and extend your tongue so that the ministers 

can easily place the host on the tongue without touching the 

tongue or dropping the host. After receiving the host, proceed 

to the Precious Blood. You should never come forward 

to receive communion chewing gum. 

No one is obliged to receive both the Sacred Host and the 

Precious Blood. Christ is truly present under the form of 

bread and under the form of wine by virtue of the words pronounced 

by the priest during the consecration of the Mass. 

The whole Christ, soul and divinity, is truly received whether 

one take Sacred Host only or only receives the Precious 

Blood. However receiving both reflects a fuller sign of the 

Eucharistic banquet. 

We come forward with empty hands and hearts to be nourished 

by the Body and Blood of Christ and we return to our 

pews empowered and strengthened to go out into the world 

to witness to the power and presence of Christ in our lives. 

See you at Mass 

Deacon Jack



Respect Life 

Word of Life 

As a doctor, the freedom to practice based not only on scientific 

knowledge but also on my faith and conscience allows 

me and all physicians and healthcare providers to offer 

the best quality of medicine possible. As a patient, I 

want my doctors, nurses and other healthcare providers to 

offer the same type of care. The moment we allow our conscience 

to be replaced by a government “conscience,” we 

begin to lose our freedom.

SEE YOU NEXT YEAR – IN THE NEW PARISH LIFE CENTER


HOUSTON, TEXAS September 30, 2012

You’re invited to 


Holy Spirit 

Please join us as we transform the Community Center into the 

Holy Spirit Café from 6:30 to 8:30 next Friday, October 5th 

The music begins at 7:00; the fellowship begins the moment you arrive! 

What is the Coffee House? It’s a gathering of friends who share inspiration 

through scripture readings and live Christian music. And we want you there 

to sing along! It’s a nice place to share a cup of coffee and a snack and 

visit with friends… or meet someone you haven’t yet. 

We’d love to have you join us. Please bring a snack to share and let 

us know if you need childcare. You can email Margaret at mcarnicle@ctrcc.com 

to arrange that service. We can’t wait to see you there! 

Café
