ON THE COVER:

St. Thérèse of Lisieux, Patroness of the Diocese of Fresno St. Thérèse of Lisieux is the Patroness of the Diocese of Fresno. St. Thérèse was born January 2, 1873 in Alcon, Normandy, France. She became a Carmelita nun at the age of fifteen, when she defined her path to God as “The Little Way,” which consisted on love and trust in God. She died of tuberculosis on September 30, 1897, in Lisieux, France, at the age of twentyfour. She was canonized by Pope Pius XI on May 17, 1925, and in 1997 St. Thérèse of Lisieux was declared a Doctor of the Church by Pope John Paul II. Although her life as a nun was short-lived, it wasn’t without much accomplishment. While St. Thérèse lived an obscure and unknown life as a cloistered nun, she later became one of the most popular saints of all time. St. Thérèse wrote an autobiography, Story of a Soul, which was published after her death. Seventeen years after her death, nearly one million copies of her autobiography were sold, and printed in thirty-five languages. Today, various images, statues and churches of St. Thérèse of Lisieux can be found in almost every town and city in Christendom. Various buildings have been built in her honor. She is known as “the child loved by all the world.” After the appointment of Bishop John Bernard MacGinley, as Bishop of the Diocese of Monterey-Fresno, a parish within the city of Fresno was dedicated to St. Thérèse of Lisieux, the first in the world. In 1925, the Shrine of St. Thérèse of Lisieux was established and she became the patron saint of the Diocese. St. Thérèse is most commonly represented with roses and a crucifix in her arms. She is the patron saint for the missions and of florists. St. Thérèse of Lisieux is also known as “Thérèse of the Child Jesus” and “The Little Flower.” Her feast day is October 1. In addition to St. Thérèse, St. Columba is the secondary patron saint of the Diocese of Fresno. He was born December 7, 521, in Donegal, Ireland. He died on June 9, 597, which is his feast day in Iona, Scotland. St. Columba was the father of Christianity to the Scots people of the small coastal area west of Druim Alban. He is the patron of poets, bookbinders, as well as various dioceses in Ireland and Scotland, and provides protection against floods. Saint Agnes is another important saint for the Diocese of Fresno. Saint Agnes was an early Christian martyr, who devoted her life entirely to God. She is the patron saint of the City of Fresno. There is a mission church located in Pinedale, California, that is dedicated to her, and there is a major medical center in the city of Fresno that bears her name. Credits: • Cover: Bishop Myron J.

He was born in Buenos Aires on 17 December 1936, the son of Italian immigrants. His father Mario was an accountant employed by the railways and his mother Regina Sivori was a committed wife dedicated to raising their five children. He graduated as a chemical technician and then chose the path of the priesthood, entering the Diocesan Seminary of Villa Devoto. On 11 March 1958 he entered the novitiate of the Society of Jesus. He completed his studies of the humanities in Chile and returned to Argentina in 1963 to graduate with a degree in philosophy from the Colegio de San José in San Miguel. From 1964 to 1965 he taught literature and psychology at Immaculate Conception College in Santa Fé and in 1966 he taught the same subject at the Colegio del Salvatore in Buenos Aires. From 1967-70 he studied theology and obtained a degree from the Colegio of San José. On 13 December 1969 he was ordained a priest by Archbishop Ramón José Castellano. He continued his training between 1970 and 1971 at the University of Alcalá de Henares, Spain, and on 22 April 1973 made his final profession with the Jesuits. Back in Argentina, he was novice master at Villa Barilari, San Miguel; professor at the Faculty of Theology of San Miguel; consultor to the Province of the Society of Jesus and also Rector of the Colegio Máximo of the Faculty of Philosophy and Theology. On 31 July 1973 he was appointed Provincial of the Jesuits in Argentina, an office he held for six years. He then resumed his work in the university sector and from 1980 to 1986 served once again as Rector of the Colegio de San José, as well as parish priest, again in San Miguel. In March 1986 he went to Germany to finish his doctoral thesis; his superiors then sent him to the Colegio del Salvador in Buenos Aires and next to the Jesuit Church in the city of Córdoba as spiritual director and confessor.

THE HOLY FATHER Franciscus Jorge Mario Bergoglio 13.III.2013

It was Cardinal Antonio Quarracino, Archbishop of Buenos Aires, who wanted him as a close collaborator. So, on 20 May 1992 Pope John Paul II appointed him titular Bishop of Auca and Auxiliary of Buenos Aires. On 27 May he received episcopal ordination from the Cardinal in the cathedral. He chose as his episcopal motto, miserando atque eligendo, and on his coat of arms inserted the ihs, the symbol of the Society of Jesus.

The first Pope of the Americas Jorge Mario Bergoglio hails from Argentina. The 77-year-old Jesuit Archbishop of Buenos Aires is a prominent figure throughout the continent, yet remains a simple pastor who is deeply loved by his diocese, throughout which he has travelled extensively on the underground and by bus during the 15 years of his episcopal ministry.

He gave his first interview as a bishop to a parish newsletter, Estrellita de Belém. He was immediately appointed Episcopal Vicar of the Flores district and on 21 December 1993 was also entrusted with the office of Vicar General of the Archdiocese. Thus it came as no surprise when, on 3 June 1997, he was raised to the dignity of Coadjutor Archbishop of Buenos Aires. Not even nine months had passed when, upon the death of Cardinal Quarracino, he succeeded him on 28 February 1998, as Archbishop, Primate of Argentina and Ordinary for Eastern-rite faithful in Argentina who have no Ordinary of their own rite.

“My people are poor and I am one of them”, he has said more than once, explaining his decision to live in an apartment and cook his own supper. He has always advised his priests to show mercy and apostolic courage and to keep their doors open to everyone. The worst thing that could happen to the Church, he has said on various occasions, “is what de Lubac called spiritual worldliness”, which means, “being self-centered”. And when he speaks of social justice, he calls people first of all to pick up the Catechism, to rediscover the Ten Commandments and the Beatitudes. His project is simple: if you follow Christ, you understand that “trampling upon a person’s dignity is a serious sin”.

Three years later at the Consistory of 21 February 2001, John Paul II created him Cardinal, assigning him the title of San Roberto Bellarmino. He asked the faithful not to come to Rome to celebrate his creation as Cardinal but rather to donate to the poor what they would have spent on the journey. As Grand Chancellor of the Catholic University of Argentina, he is the author of the books: Meditaciones para religiosos (1982), Reflexiones sobre la vida apostólica (1992) and Reflexiones de esperanza (1992).

Despite his reserved character — his official biography consists of only a few lines, at least until his appointment as Archbishop of Buenos Aires — he became a reference point because of the strong stances he took during the dramatic financial crisis that overwhelmed the country in 2001.

THE SHIELD

In October 2001 he was appointed General Relator to the 10th Ordinary General Assembly of the Synod of Bishops on the Episcopal Ministry. This task was entrusted to him at the last minute to replace Cardinal Edward Michael Egan, Archbishop of New York, who was obliged to stay in his homeland because of the terrorist attacks on September 11th. At the Synod he placed particular emphasis on “the prophetic mission of the bishop”, his being a “prophet of justice”, his duty to “preach ceaselessly” the social doctrine of the Church and also “to express an authentic judgement in matters of faith and morals”.

Pope Francis has decided to keep his previous coat of arms, chosen at the time of his episcopal consecration and marked by linear simplicity. The blue shield is surmounted by the symbols of papal dignity, the same as those used by his Predecessor Benedict XVI (the mitre above crossed keys of gold and silver, bound by the red cord). At the top of the shield is the emblem of the Pope’s religious order, the Society of Jesus: a radiant sun carrying the letters in red, ihs, the monogram of Jesus. The letter h is crowned by a cross; beneath the letters are three black nails.

All the while Cardinal Bergoglio was becoming ever more popular in Latin America. Despite this, he never relaxed his sober approach or his strict lifestyle, which some have defined as almost “ascetic”. In this spirit of poverty, he declined to be appointed as President of the Argentine Bishops’ Conference in 2002, but three years later he was elected and then, in 2008, reconfirmed for a further three-year mandate. Meanwhile in April 2005 he took part in the Conclave in which Pope Benedict XVI was elected.

Lower down on the shield there is a star and spikenard flower. The star, according to ancient armorial tradition, symbolizes the Virgin Mary, the Mother of Christ and the Church; while the spikenard symbolizes St. Joseph, Patron of the Universal Church. In traditional Hispanic iconography, St. Joseph is shown with a vine in his hand. By bearing these images on his shield, the Pope communicates his special devotion to the Most Holy Virgin and to St. Joseph. THE MOTTO

As Archbishop of Buenos Aires — a diocese with more than three million inhabitants — he conceived of a missionary project based on communion and evangelization. He had four main goals: open and brotherly communities, an informed laity playing a lead role, evangelization efforts addressed to every inhabitant of the city, and assistance to the poor and the sick. He aimed to reevangelize Buenos Aires, “taking into account those who live there, its structure and its history”. He asked priests and lay people to work together. In September 2009 he launched the solidarity campaign for the bicentenary of the Independence of the country. Two hundred charitable agencies are to be set up by 2016. And on a continental scale, he expected much from the impact of the message of the Aparecida Conference in 2007, to the point of describing it as the “Evangelii Nuntiandi of Latin America”.

The motto of Pope Francis is taken from a passage from the venerable Bede, Homily 21 (CCL 122, 149-151), on the Feast of Matthew, which reads: Vidit ergo Jesus publicanum, et quia miserando atque eligendo vidit, ait illi, ‘Sequere me’. [Jesus therefore sees the tax collector, and since he sees by having mercy and by choosing, he says to him, ‘follow me’.]

This homily is a tribute to Divine Mercy and is read during the Liturgy of the Hours on the Feast of St. Matthew. This has particular significance in the life and spirituality of the Pope. In fact, on the Feast of St. Matthew in 1953, the young Jorge Bergoglio experienced, at the age of 17, in a very special way, the loving presence of God in his life. Following confession, he felt his heart touched and he sensed the descent of the Mercy of God, who with a gaze of tender love, called him to religious life, following the example of St. Ignatius of Loyola.

Until the beginning of the recent sede vacante, he was a member of the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments, the Congregation for the Clergy, the Congregation for Institutes of Consecrated Life and Societies of Apostolic Life, the Pontifical Council for the Family and the Pontifical Commission for Latin America.

Once he had been ordained a Bishop, H.E. Mons. Bergoglio, in memory of this event that signified the beginning of his total consecration to God in His Church, chose, as his motto and as his program of life, the words of St. Bede: miserando atque eligendo. This he has chosen to keep in his papal coat of arms.

He was elected Supreme Pontiff on 13 March 2013.

THE HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE DIOCESE OF FRESNO: 1770-2013 What is now the Diocese of Fresno was a very sparsely populated desert and forestland that was one portion of the vast Diocese of Guadalajara comprising some two-thirds of the total area of Mexico. In 1769, all of Upper and Lower California were added to it. 1770 The first Diocesan records are kept with the arrival of Blessed Junipero Serra, a Franciscan Missionary, and his companions. They are the first to bring the Catholic Faith to the area. 1779 Guadalajara becomes an archdiocese, with a suffragan diocese, Sonora. This includes the Mexican States of Sonora, Sinaloa, and Upper and Lower California. 1784 Father Serra dies. During the course of his fourteen-year ministry in “New Spain,” he established nine missions and baptized over six thousand people. 1823 Mexico wins its independence from Spain. 1834 The Catholic hierarchy of Mexico proposes the “Diocese of the Californias” which includes Upper and Lower California. The See city is located in Santa Barbara. The first and only bishop of the new diocese is Francisco Diego y Moreno. 1846 The United States purchases “Upper California” from Mexico. 1850 Rome erects the Diocese of Monterey to embrace the entire State of California. The first Bishop of the Diocese is a Spanish Dominican, Rev. Joseph Sadoc Alemany. He had become a naturalized American citizen. 1853 The Archdiocese of San Francisco is erected, and Bishop Alemany is appointed ordinary to that See. 1857 St. Joseph’s Church in Mariposa is established. 1858 Rome renames The Diocese of Monterey to the Diocese of Monterey and Los Angeles. The Episcopal See moves to Los Angeles. 1861 St. Mary’s Church in Visalia is established. 1868 The Diocese of Grass Valley is erected as a suffragan of the Archdiocese of San Francisco. It is renamed the Diocese of Sacramento in 1886. 1873 Our Lady of Mercy Church, originally named St. Patrick’s in Merced, is established. 1881 St. Joachim Church in Madera and St. Francis of Assisi Church in Bakersfield are established. 1882 St. John’s (later to be the cathedral) Church is established in Fresno. 1922 Rome erects the Diocese of Monterey-Fresno. The other ecclesiastical jurisdictions are Los Angeles-San Diego, Sacramento and San Francisco. Most Rev. J. Cantwell, Bishop of Los Angeles-San Diego, administers the affairs of the Monterey-Fresno Diocese. 1924 Most Rev. John B. MacGinley is installed as the first Bishop of the Monterey-Fresno Diocese. He resigns in 1932 and dies in October 1969. At the time of his installation, the Diocese contains: 42 parishes, 22 missions, 11 parochial schools, 2 hospitals and 60 priests. The Catholic population reaches 50,000. 1925 St. Thérèse of Lisieux is named patroness of the Diocese. The Shrine of St. Thérèse is established in Fresno. It is the first parish in the world dedicated to St. Thérèse of Lisieux. 1933 Rt. Rev. Philip Scher, Vicar General under Bishop MacGinley, is consecrated Bishop of the Monterey-Fresno Diocese. At the time of his consecration, the Diocese contains four deaneries: Fresno, Bakersfield, San Luis Obispo and Monterey. This includes: 54 parishes, 25 missions, 17 parochial schools, 4 high schools, 3 hospitals and 99 priests.

PAPAL AUDIENCE The Holy Father grants General audiences in St. Peter’s Square (or, in the summer, at Castel Gandolfo) every Wednesday at 10:30 a.m. Tickets, which are free of charge, are required. A letter from the Bishop’s office is not required for general seating. E-Mail your request for tickets to [email protected]. If you are in Rome on a Sunday, go to St. Peter’s Square for the Angelus at noon. The Holy Father appears at his apartment window to impart a blessing. The summer months are yet to be announced. No tickets are required. For more information about audiences, or about tours of St. Peter’s, or the Vatican Museum, e-mail [email protected]. The Scavi, or excavations, where St. Peter’s tomb may be found, are accessed through [email protected]. At General Audiences, newlyweds are seated in a special section in their wedding garments. (A copy of the wedding certificate is required.) Church choirs are welcome to sing for the Holy Father. Visitors should plan to be dressed appropriately.

PAPAL BLESSING The Bishop’s Office will request Papal Blessings from the Vatican when a pastor attests in writing to the good moral character of the person(s) for whom the blessing is intended. If the occasion for the blessing is a wedding, or a wedding anniversary, the date, and the name of the church (with city and state) must be provided. If the occasion is a birthday, it should be a hallmark number. The process takes approximately two months.

A PriestÊs Prayer Loving Father, I praise you, I love you, I adore you. Send your Holy Spirit to enlighten my mind to the truth of your Son, Jesus, Priest and Victim. Through the same Spirit guide my heart to his Sacred Heart, to renew in me a priestly passion that I, too, might lay down my life upon the altar. May your Spirit wash away my impurities and free me from all my transgressions in the Cup of Salvation, Let only your will be done in me.

Established in 1967 1,500 Registered Families Administrator: Rev. Ivan Hernandez Melchor [email protected] Office Manager/Bookkeeper: Lizebeth Alvarado [email protected] Parish Secretary: Natalia L. Carroll [email protected]

May the Blessed Mother of your dearly beloved Son, wrap her mantle around me and protect me from all evil. May she guide me to do whatever He tells me.

GENERAL INFORMATION DIOCESAN POLICY FOR MARRIAGE 3. If the wedding is delayed, the couple has the right to appeal the decision to the Bishop.

The policy of the Church states, “We the faith community to which you belong, care about you and your future success in marriage; we want to help you in growth of your relationship to each other and to God. Our goal is to assist you to prepare not just for your wedding day, but for your married life together.” This policy establishes definite diocesan norms and guidelines for marriage preparation. This common policy for marriage preparation is not intended to make it difficult for couples to marry in the Catholic Church. Rather, it recognizes the seriousness of marriage and the responsibility of a caring Church to help couples prepare adequately for a community of life and love together.

VI. POSTPONEMENT OF MARRIAGE In the event that the marriage is postponed by the decision of the priest, every effort will be made by the priest to help the couple overcome the specific circumstances that made the delay advisable. If the couple decides to marry outside the Church, they must be advised that the Church cannot approve of their action. However every effort should be made to insure that the doors of communication be left open for future reconciliation. A priest may not proceed with a marriage postponed by another priest without the approval of the Bishop

I. NOTIFICATION TO THE PARISH PRIEST As a minimum requirement couples must contact the parish priest at least 6 months before their wedding date.

VII. INTERFAITH MARRIAGES Faith and religious practice are meant to be a source of unity in marriage. When a Catholic marries a non-Catholic, special attention is required so that the difference in faith does not become a cause of conflict and division. An interfaith marriage may not have two religious ceremonies or use both rites in a single ceremony celebrated jointly or successively. With the permission of the Bishop, a non-Catholic minister may be invited to participate in the Catholic marriage service. The Catholic party in an interfaith marriage will be asked to make an explicit promise that everything possible will be done to see that the children of the marriage will be baptized and educated in the Catholic faith. The non-Catholic party will be informed of the Catholic party’s obligation to preserve and practice the Catholic faith.

II. THE PARISH PRIEST The parish priest who will witness the marriage has the responsibility to make a two-fold assessment: 1. The couple’s readiness for marriage. 2. The level of faith of the Catholic parties. A wedding date may be scheduled during the initial meeting with the priest. However, the couple is advised that if serious reasons surface later, the priest may delay the wedding until the matter is resolved. III. THE PREPARATION PROCESS The proximate preparation for marriage consists of three steps: 1. One initial session with the parish priest. 2. Participation in one of the available marriage preparation Programs. 3. Final session with the priest. A minimum of 8 hours is to be spent in the formal preparation for marriage. Couples seeking to validate their marriage or who seek to enter a second marriage should follow the preparation.

VIII. NON-PRACTICING CATHOLICS The same procedure as for an interfaith marriage is required when a nonpracticing Catholic requests the sacrament of marriage. IX. PREGNANCY Pregnancy before marriage does not mean an exception to the norms of marriage preparation as outlined in the policy. It is even more important to the success of such marriages that the established procedures be followed. The priest should discuss the situation with both sets of parents in all cases of this kind if it is possible to do so without violating confidence. While the Church views such situations with great compassion it should not be presumed that marriage is the only appropriate solution.

IV. REASONS FOR DELAY OF THE MARRIAGE The Church holds that the right to marry is an important natural right. However it is not an unrestricted one. There can be serious reasons for delaying the marriage: 1. Refusal of the couple to take part in the process of preparation for marriage. 2. Non-practice of the Catholic faith by the Catholic party or parties with no intention of returning to the practice of the faith. This may also include the lack of intention to provide religious education in the Catholic faith for children of this marriage. 3. Inability of the couple to contract a valid marriage (e.g. denial of permanence of marriage, or other canonical impediments). 4. Serious lack of maturity as assessed by the priest. 5. Teenagers under 19 years of age: such couples must receive individual evaluative counseling before the marriage can be arranged in accord with the policy of the Diocese of Fresno. 6. Separation of the couple for an extended period before the wedding. 7. Not fulfilling the requirements of Church law.

X. REQUIRED DOCUMENTS 1. A certificate of Baptism must be submitted for each baptized party. The certificate for the Catholic must be issued within 6 months of the date of marriage. 2. A certificate of First Communion and Confirmation must be submitted . 3. If either party is a widow or a widower a certificate of the death of the former spouse must be submitted. 4. Banns of marriage should be announced in the proper churches. Banns may be announced for interfaith marriages if there is no danger of scandal. 5. Certificate of civil marriage and/or Marriage License. XI. LOCATION OF MARRIAGE 1. Marriage should take place in the parish church of one of the parties. 2. Weddings in private homes, “out-doors” or in wedding chapels are not permitted in this Diocese.

V. ASSESSMENT OF READINESS FOR MARRIAGE 1. Couples may enter marriage with major problems that can lead to possible marriage failure. This could even render the marriage invalid. It is the responsibility of the priest to be sensitive to such a possibility. 2. If a major obstacle to marriage is discovered, the priest will make the decision if there is to be a delay of the wedding after proper consultation and evaluation.

Can. 1065 §1 Catholics who have not yet received the Sacrament of Confirmation are to receive it before being admitted to marriage, if this can be done without grave inconvenience.

GENERAL INFORMATION EUCHARISTIC FAST CAN. 919.3 The elderly and those who are suffering from some illness, as well as those who care for them, may receive the blessed Eucharist even if within the preceding hour they have consumed something.

CAN. 917 One who has received the blessed Eucharist may receive it again on the same day only within a Eucharistic celebration in which that person participates. CAN. 919.1 Whoever is to receive the blessed Eucharist is to abstain for at least one hour before Holy Communion from all food and drink, with the sole exception of water and medicine.

DIOCESAN POLICY FOR THE RECEPTION OF BAPTISM For adult baptism: The norm established by the Church (1972) for the preparation of adults and children who have reached the age or reason to be received into the Church calls for a communal and gradual initiation into the mystery of Christ. 1. An adult who seeks baptism into the Church is to be admitted to the “Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults” (R.C.I.A.), which should be part of every parish. This is normally done by speaking personally with the priest of the parish in which one lives. Children who have reached the age of reason are to be admitted to the “Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults” adapted for children. 2. An adult who has already received Christian baptism but not in the Catholic Church and wishes to be received into the Catholic Church is to follow the stages as set forth in the same rite as a candidate for reception into full communion. 3. All participating in the R.C.I.A. are to be confirmed immediately after receiving baptism or after being received into full communion. They are to fully participate in the celebration of the Eucharist, which includes the reception of Holy Communion. This takes place normally during the Easter Vigil service. 4. The sponsors of an adult, in addition to fulfilling the same requirements as for a sponsor of an infant, are encouraged to accompany the catechumen/candidate through the stage of preparation for the sacrament of initiation.

For infant baptism: 1. Infants should be baptized soon after birth, but sufficient time is necessary for the proper instruction. 2. Children who are seven years of age or older must receive instruction in the Church before being baptized (cf adult baptism). 3. The ordinary place for baptism is in the parish church of the parents. 4. One of the parents or a legal guardian must request baptism. 5. There must be a founded hope that the child baptized will be brought up in the Catholic religion. 6. Godparents must have received Baptism, Confirmation and the Holy Eucharist, should be at least 16 years of age, and should be practicing Catholics who are able to give the example of a good Catholic life. There are normally to be two godparents, one man and one woman. If they are couple, must be married in the Catholic church. 7. A baptized non-Catholic may not be a godparent but may be an official witness to the baptism, as long as there is one Catholic godparent. 8. Baptism is not to be conferred until parents and godparents have attended pre-baptismal instruction. The responsibilities of parents and godparents are to be reviewed, as well as preparation for the celebration of the rite of baptism.

DIOCESAN POLICY FOR THE RECEPTION OF EUCHARIST AND PENANCE clearly distinguish between the two sacraments. The beginning catechesis for penance is to precede the reception for First Eucharist. The reception of First Penance is to be separated by several months from the reception of First Eucharist.

A two-year catechesis of preparation is required. It is recommended that parents of children also attend a program of catechesis and doctrinal preparation. The catechesis for the initial reception of the Sacrament of Penance is to be separated from the catechesis for First Eucharist so that the child will

DIOCESAN POLICY FOR THE RECEPTION OF CONFIRMATION A sponsor must be a confirmed Catholic, who has already received the sacrament of the Most Holy Eucharist; at least 16 years of age and have the intention of carrying out the duties of a godparent. It is desirable that the one who undertook the role of sponsor at baptism be the sponsor for confirmation. Parents may not be sponsors for their children, but may present them for the sacrament.

Candidates for Confirmation must be at least 16 years of age and at least high school juniors. A two-year catechesis of preparation is required and should integrate elements of Bible study, community, liturgy and service. The sponsor for the candidate is to act as a true witness of Christ and faithfully fulfill the obligation inherent in this sacrament. The Church recommends that the sponsor for confirmation be the same sponsor that the candidate had at baptism.

GENERAL INFORMATION DIOCESAN POLICY CONCERNING BURIAL CAN. 1176.1 Christ’s faithful who have died are to be given a Church funeral according to the norms of law.

Cremation: Consultation with a parish priest is required before completing arrangements for cremation and burial.

CAN. 1176.2 Church funerals are to be celebrated according to the norms of the liturgical books. In these funeral rites the Church prays for the spiritual support of the dead, it honors their bodies, and at the same time it brings to the living the comfort of hope.

GUIDELINES REGARDING CREMATION Although cremation is now permitted, Catholic teaching continues to stress the preference for burial or entombment of the body of the deceased. When cremation is chosen for serious reasons, the following guidelines have been promulgated by the Bishop of our diocese.

CAN, 1176.3 The Church earnestly recommend that the pious custom of burial be retained; but it does not forbid cremation, unless this is chosen for reasons which are contrary to Christian teaching.

1. The body of the deceased should be present for its funeral rites; 2. When circumstances prevent the presence of the body at the funeral liturgy, it is appropriate that the cremated remains of the body be present for the full course of the funeral rites; placed in a worthy vessel on the spot usually occupied by the coffin. As usual, the funeral liturgy should always be celebrated in a church.

DIOCESAN GUIDELINES As a general rule, Catholics are to be buried in a Catholic cemetery. Some exceptions are: A) Ownership in good faith of a grave in a secular cemetery (for example, a convert who had purchased a grave before conversion);

3. As usual, the funeral liturgy should always be celebrated in a church. 4. The cremated remains should be reverently buried or entombed in a cemetery or mausoleum. (The practice of scattering cremated remains on the sea, from the air, or on the ground, or keeping cremated remains in home of a relative or friend is not in accord with Church practice.)

B) Burial of a veteran in a national cemetery; C) When no Catholic cemetery is available; A non-Catholic may be buried in a Catholic cemetery if he or she is a member of a Catholic family, such as party to a mixed marriage or close relative of a Catholic.

5. If at all possible, the place of entombment should be marked with a plaque or stone memorializing the deceased.

GENERAL LAWS OF FAST AND ABSTINENCE CAN. 1251 Abstinence from meat is to be observed on all Fridays of Lent. Abstinence and fasting are to be observed on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday.

CAN. 1249 All Christ’s faithful are obliged by divine law, each in his or her own way, to do penance. However, so that all may be joined together in a certain common practice of penance, days of penance are prescribed. On these days the faithful are in a special manner to devote themselves to prayer, to engage in works of piety and charity, and to deny themselves, by fulfilling their obligations more faithfully and especially by observing the fast and abstinence which the following canons prescribe.

CAN. 1252 The law of abstinence binds those who have completed their fourteenth year. The law of fasting binds those who have attained their majority (18 years of age), until the beginning of their sixtieth year. Pastors of souls and parents are to ensure that even those who by reason of their age are not bound by the law of fasting and abstinence, are taught the true meaning of penance.

CAN. 1250 The days and time of penance for the universal Church are each Friday of the whole year and the season of Lent.

NORMS REGARDING HOLY DAYS OF OBLIGATION IN THE DIOCESE OF FRESNO Holy Days of Obligation are the following: August 15, the Feast of the Assumption November 1, the Feast of All Saints December 8, Feast of the Immaculate Conception December 25, Christmas

December 8, feast of the Immaculate Conception, patroness of the United States, is always an obligatory feast, regardless of the day it falls on. This goes also for Christmas Day, December 25.

Regarding obligation status, when August 15 and November 1, fall on a Saturday or Monday, it is NOT an obligatory feast, only a solemn feast. The faithful are not required to attend Mass.

Also, Ascension Thursday is now celebrated on the Seventh Sunday of Easter.

January 1, Solemnity of Mary, the Mother of God is NOT a holy day of obligation in the Province of Los Angeles, to which Fresno belongs.

INFORMACIŁN GENERAL POL¸TICA DIOCESANA PARA MATRIMONIO necesario, de posponer la boda. 3.Si la boda fuera aplazada, la pareja tiene el derecho de apelar esta decisión con el Obispo.

La política de la Iglesia dice, “Nosotros, La Comunidad de Fe, a la que tú perteneces, se preocupa por ti y por el éxito en tu futuro matrimonio; queremos ayudarte a crecer en la relación del uno para con el otro y con Dios. Nuestro objetivo es ayudarte a prepararte, no solo para el día de la boda, sino para toda tu vida matrimonial.” Esta política establece normas y guías diocesanas definidas para la preparación matrimonial. Esta política común de preparación matrimonial intenta ayudar a quienes quieran casarse en la Iglesia Católica. Puesto que, la Iglesia reconoce la seriedad del matrimonio, y es consciente de su responsabilidad de cuidar y de ayudar a las parejas a prepararse adecuadamente para que su matrimonio sea una Alianza de vida y de amor.

VI. APLAZAMIENTO DEL MATRIMONIO En la eventualidad de que el matrimonio se posponga por decisión del sacerdote, el sacerdote hará todo lo posible para ayudar a la pareja a superar las circunstancias específicas que han hecho que se aconsejara dicho aplazamiento. Si la pareja decide casarse fuera de la Iglesia, ellos deben ser advertidos que la Iglesia no puede aprobar su acción. Sin embargo, se debe hacer todo el esfuerzo para asegurar que las puertas de la comunicación queden abiertas para una futura reconciliación. Un sacerdote no debe proceder, sin la aprobación del Obispo, a realizar un matrimonio aplazado por otro sacerdote.

I. NOTIFICACIÓN AL SACERDOTE DE LA PARROQUIA Se requiere que los contrayentes contacten al sacerdote de su parroquia por los menos 6 meses antes del día que planean casarse.

VII. MATRIMONIO DE DISTINTA RELIGIÓN La práctica de la fe y la religión están hechas para ser una fuente de unidad en el matrimonio. Cuando un católico se casa con un no-católico, se requiere de una atención especial de tal forma que la diferencia fe no se convierta en causa de conflicto y división. Un matrimonio de distinta religión no puede tener dos ceremonias religiosas o usar los dos ritos en una misma ceremonia celebrada conjuntamente o sucesivamente. Con el permiso del Obispo, un ministro no-católico puede ser invitado a participar en el servicio de un matrimonio católico. A la parte católica en un matrimonio de distinta religión se le pedirá hacer una promesa explícita de que hará todo lo posible para que los hijos del matrimonio sean bautizados y educados en la Fe Católica. La parte no-católica será informada de la obligación de la parte católica de preservar y practicar la fe católica.

II. EL SACERDOTE DE LA PARROQUIA El sacerdote de la parroquia, quién celebrará el matrimonio, tiene la responsabilidad de evaluar: 1. La capacidad y preparación de la pareja para el matrimonio. 2. El nivel de fe de las partes católicas. Una fecha para la boda puede programarse durante la primera reunión con el sacerdote. Sin embargo, la pareja debe ser advertida que si posteriormente surgieran razones serias, el sacerdote podrá posponer la boda hasta que el asunto se resuelva. III. EL PROCESO DE PREPARACIÓN La preparación próxima para el matrimonio consta de tres pasos: 1.Una sesión inicial con el sacerdote de la parroquia. 2.Participación en uno de los programas de preparación matrimonial disponible. 3.Sesión final con el sacerdote. La preparación formal para el matrimonio consistirá en un mínimo de 8 horas. Parejas que busquen convalidar su matrimonio o quienes buscan contraer un (nuevo) matrimonio deben seguir la misma preparación.

VIII. CATÓLICOS NO-PRACTICANTES El mismo procedimiento de los matrimonios de distinta religión será requerido, cuando un católico no-practicante solicite el sacramento del matrimonio. IX. EMBARAZO El embarazo antes del matrimonio no significa una excepción a las normas para la preparación al matrimonio como se indica en la política. Es aún más importante para el éxito de tales matrimonios que los procedimientos establecidos se sigan. En todos los casos de esta índole, el sacerdote deberá discutir esta situación con los padres de la pareja, haciendo lo posible para no romper la confidencialidad. Aún cuando la Iglesia ve tales situaciones con gran compasión no se debe asumir que el matrimonio sea la única solución o la más apropiada.

IV. RAZONES PARA APLAZAR UN MATRIMONIO La iglesia sostiene que el derecho a casarse es un derecho natural importante. Sin embargo, este derecho, no es sin restricciones. Puede haber serias razones para demorar un matrimonio: 1. Que la pareja se niegue a participar en el proceso de preparación matrimonial.No practicar la Fe Católica por la parte Católica o que la pareja no tenga la intención de regresar a la práctica de la fe. Esto puede incluir, el no tener la intención de proveer educación religiosa en la Fe Católica a los hijos de ese matrimonio. 2. Incapacidad de la pareja para contraer un matrimonio válido (ej. Negarse a permanecer en el matrimonio, u otros impedimentos canónicos). 3. Falta de madurez, seria y grave, evaluada por el sacerdote. 4. Adolecentes menores de 19 años: tales parejas deben recibir consejería individual evaluativa antes del matrimonio; debe estar de acuerdo con la política de la Diócesis de Fresno. 5. Separación de la pareja por un periodo prolongado antes de la boda. 6. Incumplimiento de los requisitos de la ley de la Iglesia.

X. DOCUMENTOS REQUERIDOS 1.Certificado de Bautismo. Se debe presentar un certificado de bautizo de cada uno de los contrayentes. Para los Católicos, el certificado debe ser expedido seis meses antes a la fecha de la boda. 2.Certificado de Primera Comunión y de Confirmación. Deben ser presentados. 3.Certificado de Defunción. Si una de las partes es viudo o viuda debe presentar el certificado de defunción de su anterior conyugue. 4.Las Amonestaciones. Deberán publicarse en las parroquias respectivas. Para los matrimonios de distinta religión, las amonestaciones pueden ser publicadas, siempre y cuando no haya ningún peligro de escándalo. 5.Certificado de Matrimonio Civil y/o Licencia de Matrimonio Civil.

V. EVALUACIÓN DE LA PREPARACIÓN PARA EL MATRIMONIO 1.Parejas que tal vez entren al matrimonio con problemas serios, que puedan llevarlos al fracaso matrimonial. Esto puede llevar a la invalidez del matrimonio. Es responsabilidad del sacerdote ser sensible a tal posibilidad. 2.Si se descubre un obstáculo mayor para el matrimonio, después de una apropiada consulta y evaluación, el sacerdote podrá tomar la decisión, si es

XI. LUGAR DEL MATRIMONIO 1.El matrimonio debe celebrarse en la Iglesia parroquial de uno de los novios. 2.Bodas en casas privadas, “al aire libre” o en capillas matrimoniales no están permitidas en esta diócesis. ¹¹Can Can. 1065 §1 Los católicos que aún no reciben el sacramento de la confirmación deberán recibirlo antes de contraer matrimonio, si es que se puede dar sin un inconveniente grave.

POL¸TICA DIOCESANA PARA RECIBIR EL SACRAMENTO DE BAUTISMO BAUTISMO PARA INFANTES:

PARA EL BAUTISMO DE ADULTOS: La norma establecida por la iglesia (1972) para la preparación de adultos y niños que han alcanzado la edad de razonamiento para ser recibidos en la iglesia llama a una común y gradual iniciación en el misterio de Cristo. 1. Un adulto que busca ser bautizado en la iglesia debe ser admitido al “Rito de Iniciación Cristiana para Adultos” (R.I.C.A.) el cual debe ser parte de cada parroquia. Esto se hace normalmente hablando con el sacerdote de la parroquia a la que pertenece. Los niños que han alcanzado la edad de razonamiento (7 años) deben ser admitidos al “Rito de Iniciación Cristiana para Niños” (R.I.C.N.) 2. Un adulto que ya haya recibido el bautismo cristiano pero no en la iglesia católica y desea ser admitido en la iglesia católica debe seguir las mismas normas establecidas para un candidato a la recepción en comunión plena. 3. Todos los participantes en el R.I.C.A. deben ser confirmados inmediatamente después de recibir el bautismo o después de haber sido recibido en comunión plena. Ellos han de participar plenamente de la celebración eucarística que incluye la recepción de la Santa Comunión. Esto normalmente se lleva a cabo durante el servicio de la Vigilia Pascual. 4. Los padrinos de un adulto, además de cumplir con los mismos requisitos del padrino de un infante, se les anima a acompañar al catecúmeno/candidato a través de las etapas de preparación para los sacramentos de iniciación.

1. Los infantes deben ser bautizados al poco tiempo después de nacer, sin embargo, se requiere un tiempo suficiente para la instrucción apropiada. 2. Los niños que tengan siete años de edad o mayores deben recibir instrucción en la Iglesia antes de ser bautizados (cf. Bautismo de adultos) 3. El Lugar común para el bautismo es la Iglesia Parroquial de los padres. 4. Uno de los padres o el tutor legal deben pedir el bautismo. 5. Debe de haber la firme convicción de que el niño bautizado va a ser educado en la religión católica. 6. Los padrinos deben haber recibido los sacramentos de Bautismo, Confirmación y la Santa Eucaristía, tener por lo menos 16 años de edad y practicar la fe católica para que puedan dar ejemplo de una buena vida católica. Normalmente hay dos padrinos un hombre y una mujer. Si son pareja deberán estar casados por la Iglesia Católica. 7. Un bautizado no-católico no puede ser padrino pero puede ser un testigo oficial para el bautismo siempre y cuando haya un padrino católico. 8. El bautismo no se concederá hasta que los papás y padrinos hayan recibido la instrucción pre-bautismal. Las responsabilidades de los padres y padrinos deben ser verificadas, así como la preparación para la celebración del rito del bautismo.celebración del rito del bautismo.

POL¸TICA DIOCESANA PARA LA RECEPCIŁN DE LA COMUNIŁN Y PENITENCIA niño pueda distinguir claramente entre los dos sacramentos. La catequesis inicial de la penitencia debe preceder a la recepción de la Primera Comunión. La recepción de la Primera Confesión debe estar separada por varios meses de la recepción de la Primera Comunión.

Se requiere una catequesis de preparación de dos años. Se recomienda que los padres de los niños también asistan al programa de catequesis y preparación doctrinal. La catequesis inicial para la recepción del sacramento de la penitencia debe ser aparte de la catequesis para la Primera Comunión para que el

POL¸TICA DIOCESANA PARA RECEPCIŁN DEL SACRAMENTO DE CONFIRMACIŁN Los candidatos a la confirmación deben tener por lo menos 16 años de edad al momento que él o ella reciba el Sacramento de la Confirmación sin importar el grado escolar. Se requiere una preparación de dos años de catequesis que debe incluir elementos de Estudio bíblico, servicio comunitario y liturgia. El padrino del candidato debe actuar como un verdadero testigo de Cristo y cumplir fielmente con las obligaciones inherentes a este sacramento. La Iglesia recomienda que los padrinos de confirmación sean los mismos padrinos que el candidato tuvo en su bautismo.

El padrino debe ser católico, confirmado, haber recibido el sacramento de la Sagrada Eucaristía, tener por lo menos 16 años de edad y tener la intención de llevar a cabo las obligaciones de padrino. Es recomendable que el que tomó el papel de padrino en el bautismo sea padrino de confirmación. Los padres no pueden ser padrinos de sus hijos, pero pueden presentarlos para el sacramento.

INFORMACIŁN GENERAL POL¸TICA DIOCESANA CONCERNIENTE AL ENTIERRO CAN. 1176.1 A los fieles cristianos que han muerto se les debe celebrar un funeral en la Iglesia de acuerdo con las normas eclesiásticas.

DIRECTRICES REFERENTES A LA CREMACIŁN A pesar de que ahora la cremación es permitida, la enseñanza católica continúa haciendo hincapié en la preferencia del entierro o inhumación del cuerpo de un difunto. Cuando se elije la cremación por serias razones, el Obispo de nuestra diócesis ha promulgado las siguientes normas.

CAN. 1176.2 Los funerales en la Iglesia deben celebrarse de acuerdo a las normas de los libros litúrgicos. En estos ritos de los funerales, la Iglesia obtiene para los difuntos, la ayuda espiritual y honra sus cuerpos y al mismo tiempo les proporciona a los vivos el consuelo de la esperanza. CAN. 1176.3 La Iglesia recomienda encarecidamente que se conserve la piadosa costumbre de enterrar (sepultar) el cadáver de los difuntos; sin embargo, no prohíbe la cremación, a no ser que haya sido elegida por razones que sean contrarias a las enseñanzas Cristianas.

1.

El cuerpo del difunto debe estar presente para los ritos funerarios;

2.

Cuando las circunstancias no permitan la presencia del cuerpo en la liturgia del funeral, lo mas apropiado será que las cenizas estén presentes para el desarrollo pleno de los ritos funerarios; puestos (depositados) en un “recipiente digno” en el lugar usualmente ocupado por el ataúd.

3.

Como de ordinario, la liturgia del funeral debe ser celebrada en el emplo;

4.

Las cenizas deben ser enterradas o depositadas con reverencia en un cementerio o en un mausoleo. (La práctica de esparcir las cenizas en el mar, desde el aire, o en la tierra, o conservarlas en la casa de u familiar, no va de acuerdo con la práctica de la Iglesia.)

5.

En medida de lo posible, el lugar del sepulcro debe ser marcado con una placa o piedra recordando al difunto.

DIRECTRICES DIOCESANAS Como regla general, los católicos deben ser enterrados en cementerios católicos. Algunas excepciones son A)

Ser dueño en buena fe de una tumba en un cementerio secular (por ejemplo, un converso que haya comprado una tumba antes de su conversión);

B)

Entierro de un veterano en un cementerio nacional;

C)

Cuando no haya un cementerio católico disponible.

Una persona no-católica puede ser sepultada en un cementerio católico si él o ella es miembro de una familia Católica, por ejemplo, miembros de un matrimonio mixto o familiares cercanos de un Católico. CREMACIÓN: Se necesita consultar al sacerdote parroquial antes de completar los arreglos para la cremación y entierro.

REGLAS GENERALES DE AYUNO Y ABSTINENCIA CAN. 1251 Abstenerse de comer carne debe guardarse todos los viernes de Cuaresma. El ayuno y la abstinencia se guardarán el miércoles de Ceniza y el Viernes Santo.

CAN. 1249 Todos los fieles, cada uno a su modo, están obligados por ley divina a hacer penitencia; sin embargo, para que todos se unan en alguna práctica común de penitencia, se han fijado unos días penitenciales, en los que se dediquen los fieles de manera especial a la oración, realicen obras de piedad y de caridad y se nieguen a sí mismos, cumpliendo con mayor fidelidad sus propias obligaciones y, sobre todo, observando el ayuno y la abstinencia, a tenor de los cánones que siguen.

CAN. 1252 La ley de la abstinencia obliga a los que han cumplido catorce años; la del ayuno, a todos los mayores de edad (18 años), hasta el inicio de sesenta años. Cuiden sin embargo los pastores de almas y los padres de que también se formen en un auténtico espíritu de penitencia quienes, por no haber alcanzado la edad, no están obligados al ayuno o a la abstinencia.

CAN. 1250 En la Iglesia universal, son días y tiempos penitenciales todos los viernes del año y el tiempo de cuaresma.
