ChurchPage 3Mission NewsTraveling to Guatemala on the St Raymond'sMission Awareness Trip is an experience thatis impossible to fully explain. Yes I can sharestories, show pictures, give gifts but theexperience is unique in many ways.My first trip with Deacon Rich to Guatemalawas 9 years ago. I was in High School and Itruly believe that my first 3 trips helped me become an adultand the person I am today. It is so frustrating to never beable to explain the love and caring of the Guatemalanpeople to my family and to have them be unable tounderstand this aspect of my life. Two years ago my motherand brother made the journey with me. Ever since then I feellike my family has grown stronger and they share that part ofmy life. This year I was joined by my two cousins, Jeanetteand Colleen. To be able to share my Guatemalan family(and I do consider them my family) with my cousins wasamazing. I feel like they now know me so much morebecause they know what I know about love, giving, sharingand coming together to make the world a better place.Some people, even in my own family, question why I go toGuatemala to help the people there. It pains me to think thatthey might never know why. I help them because they arepeople and no matter what culture or country they comefrom, they deserve an education, clean clothes, food,medicine and most of all to be loved. I go there to help thembut I leave feeling like I am the one who has been given agift, because I have learned so much from them.You might never make the journey to Guatemala but theexperience of sponsoring a child is an unexplainable joy aswell. My family has sponsored 6 children and eachrelationship has taught me so much about life, love andmyself. I have seen my first sponsored child graduate fromHigh School, get a job and become a man. I promise that ifyou get involved in the Project you will change lives; theGuatemalan children and your own. -- Dan RivenburghThere are children waiting to be sponsored at $20 permonth. If interested please call the rectory.

I cry for help but You donot listen!” (Habakkuk 1:2) This could be thevoice of the child in her mother’s womb or thegroan of the old man as he is given the extrashot of morphine to end his “inconvenient”life. It could be the fearful gasp of theexecuted prisoner, or the neglected andabused child put out on the street by his ownparent. It is the voice of the voiceless and thecry of the desperate. But we know the Lord hears the cry ofthe poor and comes to their aid. We are called to be theinstruments of God’s work—His hands of outreach; His helpto all in need. The Prophets, the Apostles, and the martyrswere men and women just like us. Through the grace of Godand their openness to His Will, they changed the world. Arewe willing to experience inconvenience, or even to sufferhardship, so that a baby might live?In this third week of “Respect Life Month,” let us pray thatlike the Good Samaritan, we might seek ways to serve theweakest and most forgotten, and preserve the life of thosethreatened by the violence of abortion, abuse, selfishness orneglect.Saint Raymond R.

I look forward torehearsals and knowing that tomorrow is the show and I onlywish that we had more time together. I look at everyone ofyou as my friend and family member and one of the reasonsI love coming here is because I don't have to worry aboutbeing judged or trying to impress someone. Everyone is soaccepting of each other, which I find incredible because ofhow many people are a part of this. The memories I'veshared with everyone are unforgettable and I love everyoneof you. Each person in this room is incredibly talented, butwhen you put us all together you get something that is trulymagical. We've gotten everything we could have: amazingdirection, choreography, music, costumes, sets and now it'sup to us.
