Dinner Gathering Inviation - From Your Chinese Catholic Friends/Judy Sun

親愛的朋友,

是什麼樣的心靈牽動,讓你走出家門,來到戶外,置身在華運會、華體會、中秋節園遊會呢?記得小時候,過年放假,連最熱鬧地區的店家,也休息打烊。但是街上 仍有不少逛街的人。夾在人群間,好像只為感染一些和大家在一起的氣氛。或許那時的心情,是在尋找一種自己也說不出名目的期待。

在灣區,你置身於大型活動中,看見「天主教」三個字,停下腳步和我們說話,或是我們走上前去要告訴你什麼。實際上,在那樣人來人往的場 合,雖然你我心中還想多聊一會兒,但是沒有機會。為了彌補這心中的不足,和促進所有的新朋友的相識,10月20日星期六,讓我們再一次相遇吧。

誠懇地邀請你和你的家人共聚晚餐。我們的團體成員──聖荷西華人天主教會,歡迎你來,大家共聚,分享彼此的人生經驗。

你我的相遇,牽動了心中的尋覓,來,讓這個尋覓落實吧!

迎新聚餐
時間:10月20日星期六,下午5:00-9:00
地點:St. Clare 教堂旁的活動中心 (Parish Hall),
941 Lexington Street ( at Lafayette Street.), Santa Clara, Ca.95050


請在10月15日前告訴我們,你家有幾位來參加聚餐?
聯絡電話:(650)493-2527
聯絡電郵:friends@sjccc.org
有小朋友的看顧,請註明你孩子的年齡。

願天父的慈愛、基督的聖寵、聖神的恩賜與我們大家同在。

Prayer request for a paralyzed 19 year old De Anza student/Ker-Ching

On 9/30 at our booth, we were told a sad story. Felix Hung, a 19 year old De Anza student, has been paralyzed for about a month at Stanford Hospital. Nancy Evans, his teacher, visited us at MFSV and asked us if we can help.
One of us visited Felix this evening, met his parents, and talked to him briefly. He is conscious and was able to ask a few questions and even say thank you. Felix and his father only speak Cantonese and English.
Doctors still do not know the exact cause of his problem. New blood sample was drawn this morning and will take about another month to get the complete result.
Please pray for Felix and his family.

Vocation: Come and See/Hai Hsia

Dear all,
Please forward this to as many young friends as you can. SJCCC members will get
this note through e-mail. I do not want to leave out any one.
Going visit these religious group and learn about their mission does not mean
that one will become nuns or priests. It is a good opportunity to learn about
so many different orders and their missions. If one can find a way to support
or encourage them, it will be great. In case one hear God's call.... that
will even be greater. No matter what, ask every one to accept the invitation.
just "Go and See".
God bless.
Hai Hsia
----------------------------

"Come and See" is the theme of the first diocesan Vocations Fair, Sat., Oct. 13.
It will be held at Holy Family Community Center, 4848 Pearl Ave, San Jose,
11:00 am to 3:00 pm.
Over 50 Religious orders will be represented including Jesuits, Poor Clares,
Sisters of Notre Dame, Sisters of Mercy and many more.
Just come and see, get to know the priests, seminarians, permanent deacons
and their missions.

信仰好像黑房中的「燈」,它雖然不能改變客觀事實,卻能幫助我們「看清」事實、現狀和生命,使我們能採取正確方法去面對生命。

歌名:一件禮物

有一件禮物 你收到沒有 眼睛看不到 你心會知道
這一件禮物 心門外等候 是為了你準備 別人不能收

生命有限 時光也會走 如果你不珍惜 機會難留
禮物雖然好 如果你不要 你怎麼能夠得到 怎麼能得到

親愛的朋友 你是否想到 馬槽的嬰孩是為你而來
親愛的朋友 你是否瞭解 最好的禮物是人子主耶穌

生命有限 時光也會走 如果你不珍惜 機會難留
禮物雖然好 如果你不要 你怎麼能夠得到 怎麼能得到

觀察

我們不但接觸到許多非基督徒,我們也遇到不少教友,有的曾經來過我們團體,有的沒有。他們都仍有渴望。文鍼姊遇到一位疏離教友,在我們攤位激動地流淚,相當感人。另外,很多中國來的同胞參加了基督教,他們對我們天主教不瞭解或有誤解。與他們接觸給了我們很難得的機會向他們介紹說明我們的大公教會。

我們需要加強:1)英文資訊:有其他族裔的朋友向我們索取英文資訊2)說粵語的工作人員:有許多粵語同胞與會3) 來自中國的工作人員:有許多大陸同胞與會
