Feast of the Holy Family of Jesus, Mary & Joseph
December 28, 2025
Honoring our Parents
Sirach 3; 2-6, 12-14
This Feast of the Holy Family, which we celebrate this weekend, is one where we focus on the vocation that all of us have to family life.
The Book of Sirach gets to the heart of biblical understanding of the family and the wisdom of God’s plan. It takes the 4th Commandment, "Honor your father and mother," to higher level, explaining how this principle is foundational for a moral life, a life that ultimately honors God.
There are no perfect parents, and thus, we have no excuse to not honor the position, even if the person is flawed. None of us would be alive if it were not for our parents. God chose them to be the tool to bring us into the world. Whether they were good or bad or indifferent is irrelevant. The fact is, God used them to make us unique, just as He designed us.
We are called to honor our parents at all stages of life. We have one kind of relationship as a child. It then evolves as we become teenagers and young adults, and then yet another as we enter full adulthood.
So we honor our parents (1) when we are young by being obedient; (2) when as teenagers and young adults we give them proper respect and listen to them; and (3) in adulthood, when we show our appreciation, patience and compassion.
Jubilee Year of Hope Comes to an End
Please note that the Jubilee Year, Pilgrims of Hope, started by Pope Francis on Christmas Eve, 2024, will end on the Solemnity of the Lord's Epiphany, January 4, 2026.
December 2024 to January 2026
Pope Francis has designated the 2025 Holy Year as a time to renew ourselves as “Pilgrims of Hope.” Visit SAC's Jubilee Web Page by clicking below for announcements and updates.

KEEPING OUR PARISH CLEAN: A Call to Action from our Ecology Committee (EC)
Keeping Our Parish Clean:
A Call to Action from our EC
**After receiving reports on rodent sighting in the Parish Hall**
As we come together in fellowship, it’s important that we also take responsibility for maintaining the cleanliness of our church environment. After each event, ESPECIALLY those involving food, please ensure that all trash—whether it be compost, recycling, or regular waste—is disposed of properly. Trash and compost bags must be tied securely and placed in the designated dumpsters before leaving.
By keeping our spaces clean and free from waste, we not only protect the health of our community by preventing pests, but we also avoid costly clean-up fees. Let’s all do our part to preserve the beauty and safety of our parish for everyone.
Be on the lookout for the Ecology Committee's (EC) waste management tutorials, coming soon!
Stop by their table to sign up for more information during this weekend's ministry fair.
Thank you for your cooperation!

Also each Friday, from 4:30pm, there's an opportunity to celebrate the Sacrament of Confession. Our refurbished Confessional, provides the traditional screen that separates the priest confessor from the penitent as well as the option for a face to face confession.
Thanks to Deacon Virgil and the Liturgical Arts for making this sacred space for spiritual healing and reconciliation.

ANSWERING THE CALL
Today's Catholic Parents express some misconceptions about the priesthood as a vocation for their son. We'll hear them say, "He's too young... He'll be lonely... I won't have grandchildren... He'll be unhappy... I'll lose my son...."
The ideal Catholic parent understands a simple truth: that God desires the child's happiness even more than any parent does. If one's son experiences a genuine call or interest to becoming a priest someday, trust in God's love for him.
Below is the link to the Resources of Parents that answers to common misconceptions about the priesthood.
PRAY for the perseverance of our seminarians, especially those who are from the Archdiocese of San Francisco.
The Celebration of St. Augustine's
55th Parish Foundation Anniversary
A Recap of the Emerald Jubilee Gala
Celebrating the 55th Founding Anniversary of St. Augustine Church
The Gala took place at the South San Francisco Conference Center on Saturday, September 27, 2025. The event began with a warm welcome and introductory remarks from our Master of Ceremonies, Deacon Nestor Fernandez, and Mary Ann Narvaez, setting a positive tone for the evening.
The strong line up for the program included: Christine Adiaz and the St. Augustine Children’s Choir who immediately charmed the audience; special recognition was given to The Pastors of St. Augustine and Clergy who were present; The Santacruzan Sagalas were acknowledged for their significant contribution toward parish projects; a distinct group of dancers (who represented different generations of parishioners and ministry members) performed an elegant waltz number; followed by The Praise and Glorify Choir who performed a song and dance number to a medley of memorable Filipino songs, that caused the audience to erupt in applause at the end of their act. The dance floor was then opened by the mambo dancers who performed a graceful number to Mambo Italiano.
However, attendees began dancing from the onset. Once the Levites began playing their set during dinner, the dance floor was unofficially opened. Members of the Levites band are Fr. Peter Eugenio, Fr. Roland De La Rosa, Fr. Boie Espeleta, Fr. Mark Reburiano, Fr. Arnold Zamora, and our very own Pastor, Fr. Ray Reyes.
Gratitude for the day's achievements and success go to the organizers headed by Malou Cu, the participants, and our sponsors. Overall, the event was a resounding success, achieving the objective of joyfully celebrating the 55th founding anniversary of our parish and leaving a lasting memory with all who attended.
May St. Augustine Church continue to foster a vibrant and collaborative community as we live God’s Word and continue His Works.
