WELCOME
WELCOME TO CONGRESS
Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
Welcome to the 2017 Religious Education Congress of the Archdiocese of Los

Angeles! I pray that this will be a time of prayer and renewal and a time for growing
closer to Jesus Christ in his love.
The theme for this years Congress is Embrace Trust. This is the invitation of the
Gospel our Lords beautiful invitation to trust in Gods loving Providence. Look
at the birds in the sky they do not sow or reap, they gather nothing into barns, yet
your heavenly Father feeds them (Matt. 6:26).
God will provide! He is in charge of history and he is in charge of our individual

lives. That means that we matter to God. Each one of us.
Jesus has given his life he has died and rose again out of love for you. Now he
lives with you, walks with you on the journey of your life. To show you the path, to
lead you on the mission he gives you as disciples the mission of service and love.
We need to trust in Gods plan for our lives! We need to trust in his Providence and
love. And we need to help our brothers and sisters discover Gods beautiful plan of
God for creation. This is the great message of hope that we are called to teach and
proclaim in the Church.
So I pray that this will be a great weekend for you, an excellent opportunity to grow
in knowledge of our Catholic faith, as well as love and devotion to the Lord, whom
we serve in our daily life, in our work, ministry, family and public life.
I entrust you to the tender care of our Blessed Mother Mary, Our Lady of
Providence may she help us all to walk with confidence on our journey of faith.
Sincerely yours in Christ,
Most Reverend Jose H. Gomez

Archbishop of Los Angeles
2 2017 Religious Education Congress

WELCOME
General Info

WELCOME
Alleluia! Welcome to Congress 2017! Alleluia!

I am very happy to extend to you an invitation to join us for the Los Angeles Religious Educa-
tion Congress in Anaheim. Every year we are blessed to have so many people come to share
their story of faith and be strengthened for the journey.
As human beings, we long for connection with others, a sense that we belong to each other. The
greatest obstacle to this, many times, is that we have difficulty trusting others. The theme for
this year, Embrace Trust, comes from the readings of the eighth Sunday in Ordinary Time
wherein we hear that in all things we must trust in God. Not only are we called to trust in God,
but as stewards of Gods mysteries, we are called to be found trustworthy (1 Cor. 4:2). How do
we navigate this course? How do we protect our hearts from the fears and anxieties that threaten
to close them? St. Francis de Sales would say, We shall steer safely through every storm, so
long as our heart is right, our intention fervent, our courage steadfast, and our trust fixed on
God.
Come and be guided to deeper trust in God through a variety of workshops, liturgies, entertain-
ment and resources that are offered throughout the weekend. Come and be replenished deep in
your spirit and be challenged to live the Gospel by our national and international speakers.
Together with all the many activities, you will find opportunities to encounter God in Sacred
Space, in walking the labyrinth, in our art exhibit area as well as the Sacrament of Reconcilia-
tion.
As you will recall, a Religious Education Endowment Fund has been established in the Archdio-
cese of Los Angeles for the ongoing education and formation of Directors of Religious Educa-
tion, Adult Educators, Young Adults and Youth Ministers. The fund is currently enabling 13
students to pursue a masters degree in Religious Education. Your gift offering of $32,098 at the
2016 Congress Saturday night liturgies together with registration contributions added $48,488 to
this fund. We thank for your ongoing generosity.
Thank you for your gracious support of the Congress and participation in your communities
through ministry. Trust in Gods Providence which never fails us! Alleluia!
I look forward to greeting you at the Religious Education Congress 2017.
Sincerely,
Fr. Christopher Bazyouros

Director, Office of Religious Education

Queridos hermanos y hermanas en Cristo,
Bienvenidos al Congreso de Educacin Religiosa de la Arquidicesis de los ngeles
2017. Rezo para que ste sea un tiempo de oracin y renovacin, as como tiempo de
acercamiento al amor de Jesucristo.
El tema del Congreso este ao es Confa! Esta es la invitacin del Evangelio la
hermosa invitacin de nuestro Seor a confiar en la amorosa providencia de Dios.
Mirad las aves del cielo, que no siembran, ni siegan, ni recogen en graneros; y
vuestro Padre celestial las alimenta (Mateo 6:26).
Dios proveer! l est a cargo de la historia y est a cargo de nuestras vidas. Esto
significa que le importamos a Dios. Cada uno de nosotros le importa.
Jess ha dado su vida l ha muerto y resucitado por amor a todos nosotros. Ahora,
l vive y camina con nosotros en nuestra jornada de vida. Nos muestra el camino y
nos gua en la misin que nos ha encomendado como sus discpulos. La misin de
amor y servicio.
Tenemos que confiar en el plan de Dios para nuestras vidas! Necesitamos confiar
en su providencia y en su amor. Debemos ayudar a nuestros hermanos y hermanas
a descubrir el hermoso plan de Dios para su creacin. Este es el gran mensaje de
esperanza que estamos llamados a ensear y proclamar en la iglesia.
As que rezo para que este sea un gran fin de semana para todos, una excelente
oportunidad para crecer en el conocimiento de nuestra fe Catlica y en el amor
y devocin al Seor a quien servimos en nuestra vida diaria a en nuestro trabajo,
ministerio, familia y vida pblica.
Yo los encomiendo al tierno cuidado de nuestra Santsima Madre Mara, Nuestra
Seora de la Providencia que ella nos ayude a caminar con confianza en nuestro
camino de fe.
Sinceramente en Cristo,
+ Jose H. Gomez
Arzobispo de Los ngeles

BIENVENIDOS
Aleluya! Bienvenidos al Congreso 2017! Aleluya!

Me alegra extenderte desde lo ms profundo de mi corazn una invitacin para reunirnos en el
Congreso de Educacin Religiosa de Los ngeles en Anaheim. Cada ao somos bendecidos al
recibir a miles de personas que comparten su historia de fe y somos fortalecidos para el camino.
Como seres humanos buscamos tener una conexin con los dems, sentirnos que pertenecemos
unos a otros. Muchas veces el mayor obstculo para ello, es que tenemos dificultad para confiar en
los dems. El tema de este ao, Confa, est inspirado en las lecturas del 8 Domingo del Tiempo
Ordinario en las que escuchamos que debemos de confiar en Dios en todo momento. No solo
somos llamados a confiar en Dios, sino tambin a ser confiables como buenos administradores
de los misterios de Dios (1 Cor 4:2). Cmo protegemos nuestro corazn de los miedos y las
ansiedades que lo encierran? San Francisco de Sales nos dice: Nos dirigimos de manera segura a
travs de la cada tormenta, siempre y cuando nuestro corazn este bien, nuestra intencin ferviente,
nuestro valor firme, y nuestra confianza fija en Dios.
Ven y abre tu vida a una confianza ms profunda en Dios por medio de esplndidas conferencias,
liturgias, conciertos y recursos que se ofrecen todo el fin de semana. Ven! Nuestros conferencistas
te ayudarn a renovarte en espritu y corazn y a desafiarte a vivir por el Evangelio.
Al igual que con esas actividades, tendrs otras oportunidades de encontrar a Dios en el Espacio
Sagrado, al caminar el laberinto, en la exhibicin de arte y en el sacramento de reconciliacin.
Como ustedes recordaran, se ha establecido la Fundacin Monetaria de Educacin Religiosa en
la Arquidicesis de Los ngeles para la formacin y educacin de los Directores de Educacin
Religiosa, Formadores de Adultos, de Jvenes y Ministerios Juveniles. Actualmente este fondo
apoya a 13 estudiantes para obtener su Maestra en Educacin Religiosa. Las donaciones dadas
en las distintas liturgias del sbado durante el Congreso del 2016 junto con sus donaciones de
inscripcin llegaron a $48,488. Les agradezco su continua generosidad.
Mil gracias por tu apoyo al Congreso y tu participacin en los ministerios de tu comunidad!
Confa en la Providencia de Dios que nunca nos abandona! Aleluya!
Te esperamos en el Congreso de Educacin Religiosa 2017.
Sinceramente,
Rev. Christopher Bazyouros

Director, Oficina de Educacin Religiosa

Verses / Estrofas
1. Do not worry about your life, what you will eat, drink or wear.
God in heaven knows what you need. Put your trust in Gods care.
Can a mother forget her child, the child whom she knows in her womb?
Even should a mother forget, God will never forget you.
2. No te inquietes por tu vida, de lo qu haz de comer o vestir.

Dios en los cielos te conoce bien: confa, que cuida tu existir.
Acaso una madre se puede olvidar del hijo que ha de nacer?
Aun si la madre puede olvidar Dios nunca lo ha de hacer.
3. Barriers and walls may confront us that seek to destroy and divide.
Let us build bridges of mercy that lead us to fullness of life.
Streets that are filled with the homeless, who hunger and cry with no voice;
Let us speak hope and sow Good News, together bear fruit and rejoice.
4. Muros que impiden unirnos, dirigen a la divisin;

Construyamos los puentes que dan paso a la comunin.
Calles que alojan al pobre y que les niegan la voz;
que nuestras vidas les den techo y pan, y anuncien Palabra de Dios.

With the many struggles communities face, this liturgy will focus on how peace and
justice must unite in order to bring about positive change. The texts of the prayers for this
Mass are very powerful and beautiful. We are asking the African-American community
to bring this liturgy alive, to embrace and pray for all those suffering injustice and
uncertainty, and to ask God for a new generation of peacemakers.

We open a new day with prayer and praise as representatives from Catholic
Relief Services and music artists from Oregon Catholic Press lead us through
song and Scripture to embrace trust and solidarity on a global scale. In example
of our solidarity as Christians, this year we mirror this celebration with an
English version in the Arena and a Spanish version in Hall B.

EUCHARISTIC LITURGY IMMIGRANTS, EXILES, REFUGEES

Saturday, February 25, 2017 5:15 pm
Bishop Robert McElroy, presider
Developed from the Roman Missals Mass for Refugees and Exiles, this liturgy
considers the plight of our Christian brothers and sisters in the Middle East as well as
all those who are fleeing violence and war. Immigrants are included as well, since for
many of them, the circumstances motivating the need to migrate can also be the result
of traumatic and harsh situations at home. People of almost every country, ethnicity
and religion have experienced one of these situations. As a symbol of solidarity with
all immigrants, exiles and refugees, today, we simultaneously celebrate two liturgies
with this issue in mind: one in English in the Arena, and one in Spanish in Hall B.

ENDOWMENT CONTRIBUTORS
The Religious Education Endowment Fund was established by the Office of Religious Education to support the ongoing
training and formation of religious education leaders, particularly by making scholarships available for Directors of
Religious Education, Adult Educators, Young Adults and Youth Ministers to pursue graduate studies. It is our hope that
every Director of Religious Education and Director of Youth Ministry will be given the opportunity to receive a masters
degree in Religious Education/Religious Studies.
Those who registered online could contribute to this Fund, as well as those who made an additional contribution through
mail-in registrations. As of January 29, 746 people responded with contributions totaling $11,498. We sincerely appreci-
ate and acknowledge their contributions. Because of thoughtful contributions year after year, the Fund has passed the
$1 million mark and is currently enabled to offer financial assistance to 13 lay ministers involved in Parish Catechetical
Ministry and related areas in Youth, Young Adult and Adult Formation.
