Letter To The Editor: A Tribute To Pastor Granillo

by

By HOLLY BATES
Los Alamos
 
I was profoundly touched by Pastor Granillo’s column, “The Love of Hate” (link), and I wanted to share this:
 
After a cruel, devastating blow during this past Christmas, I was overwhelming consumed with many of the emotions that the Pastor described in his column. As a life-long Christian, I was embarrassed and ashamed of what I had become. How could I allow this one, evil person to change me so profoundly?
 
My first reaction to this true evil was revenge, which made me even more angry. I then came upon the column from Pastor Granillo,

By Pastor Raul Granillo
Los Alamos
 
I am the LORD your God. Consecrate yourselves therefore, and be holy, for I am holy. Leviticus 11:44a (NASB).

To better understand why, we first need to understand what holiness is. In the simplest sense, when something is made holy, it is declared, or ritually prepared to be set apart for God’s use alone.
 
In the most real sense, it means loving God so much that it turns

Letter To The Editor: IHM Initiates Feasibility Survey

by

By Rev. Glenn Jones
Immaculate Heart of Mary Catholic Church
Los Alamos

Our community is unique in that so many people come from all over northern New Mexico to work here at LANL—from Chama to Belen and beyond. One of the things lacking in our community is a Christian-based school, which parents might opt to utilize should they feel moved to do so. 

Not infrequently, parents—Catholic and not—have queried us as to whether we might one day start a school here at IHM for this purpose.

This letter is to inform parents and our extended community that IHM has initiated a feasibility survey in which Read More

Pastor Raul Granillo: We Are Christian

by

By PASTOR RAUL GRANILLO
Los Alamos 

The disciples were called Christians first at Antioch. (NIV, Acts 11:26)

In the Nazarene Church, one of our core values is that we are a Christian church. Let me be clear to begin with, there are many Christian churches that bring many beautiful, and distinctive characteristics to God’s Church. We have differences, but we are bound by some common beliefs that make us Christian. So, what is a Christian?

The short answer is simply that a Christian is a person who puts their faith and trust in Jesus Christ. This sounds like the obvious answer, but it demands that Read More
