Tampoco las Escrituras de hoy nos sacan
las castañas del fuego con una imagen
vaga de la “luz”. La caridad “práctica” y
el servicio entregado de Isaías dirigen
nuestro testimonio hacia lo exterior así
como hacia lo interior. Los discípulos han
de atender a todos los necesitados, compartiendo el pan, of-
reciendo un techo a quienes no lo tienen, a los oprimidos y
vistiendo al desnudo más allá de la comunidad, pero también
dentro de ella. “No des la espalda a tu propio hermano . . .
[Renuncia] a oprimir a los demás y [destierra] de ti el gesto
amenazador la palabra ofensiva. . . [comparte] tu pan con el
hambriento y [sacia] la necesidad del humillado” (Isaías 58:7,
9–10) en nuestros hogares y en nuestras comunidades de fe.
Sólo entonces brillará nuestra luz más allá de los límites de la
Iglesia y nuestras obras concretas de una caridad práctica
podrán convencer “por medio del Espíritu y del poder de
Dios” (1 Corintios 2:4), como dice Pablo, pues daremos un
testimonio mucho más creíble que cualesquiera palabras, por
muy persuasivas y sublimes que sean.
Pregunta de la semana
¿Cómo puede contribuir mi discipulado a algún aspecto de la
verdad del Evangelio, discretamente como la sal, dentro del
mundo en que me muevo? ¿Hay alguna otra situación que
reclama que mi testimonio bautismal brille de una manera
más obvia, como una vela sobre un candelero?
Most importantly, whatever the issue, however misunderstood I feel, the dis-
ciple always makes the first move, takes the first step toward reconcilia-tion. Jesus goes further. No solemn
prayer can replace such radical, interpersonal peace-making; even liturgy’s sanctifying power is nullified
without reconciliation. Interrupt the liturgy, leave sacred gifts unoffered at the altar whenever you recall that any-one has anything against you. Note carefully the extraor-dinary challenge: not if we remember something we’ve actually done, but, remarkably, if you “recall that your
[brother/sister] has anything against you” (Matthew 5:23); that is, even if the alleged offense exists only in the
other person’s mind.
Question of the Week Is there a situation in my life calling for a reconciliation that will not happen unless I make the first move? How
soon will I do so?

Welcome February!
Please note CCD Class session schedule for the month of
February:
Class sessions will be held on February 5th., 12th. and 26th. -
there will be NO CCD classes on Sunday, February 19th.
Please remember, class sessions begin at 9:45am and end
at 10:50am.
Parents, there have been increased reports in tardiness to class
sessions. Tardiness interrupts the sessions and may cause
delay in end of class sessions. Please have children report to
class sessions in a timely manner. For your child’s safety, do
not drop off students behind O'Brien Hall.
Parents are urged to remind children of the need to
demonstrate proper conduct within all class sessions. Parents
will need to attend class sessions with their children if
misconduct is reported. We will begin having students stay in
the classroom until parents report to the class or CCD
Office for pick up when the student misbehaves. We
appreciate your help and support with this concern.
Congratulations are in order for two of our Catechists!
Mary Carmichael, our Seventh Grade Catechist and Mirette
Pichardo, our Third Grade Catechist have recently completed
their Level One Certification. Please join me in congratulating
each of these wonderful Level One Catechists within our
Catechetical Ministry!

"Me gusta conversar contigo, Jesús, porque cada vez que estamos
juntos surgen nuevas oportunidades para conocerte mejor aún. Por ello, puedo ir imitando uno a uno tus rasgos, a fin de llegar a parecer-
me a Ti”. P. Ignacio Larrañaga
Fundador de los Talleres de Oración y Vida
The 2017 Archbishop's Appeal Campaign has begun. The theme for this year is
Disciples, Sent by the Spirit. The Archdiocese Archbishop's Appeal goal is $4,500,000. Our
parish Appeal goal is $25,332. Families should have already received a letter from Archbish-
op Gustavo requesting your participation in the 2017 Archbishop's
Appeal. Your gift to the Appeal will provide housing and basic necessities for the
homeless, education and spiritual formation for seminarians and deacons, and
evangelization and education initiatives for youth, young adults, and families in our Archdio-
cese. Your generous gift to the Appeal can be made by filling out the pledge card sent to your
home or at your parish. Once completed, place your Appeal pledge card in the offertory during Mass. Gifts can also be made
online at www.archsa.org/archbishops-appeal or over the phone with the Appeal Office at 210-734-1604. Thank you for your gen-
erosity.
La Campaña 2017 del Arzobispo ha comenzado. El tema para este año es Discípulos, Envia-
dos por el Espíritu. La meta de la Campana es $4,500,000. Nuestro objetivo
parroquial es $25,332. Esta semana usted recibirá una carta del Arzobispo Gustavo
solicitando su participación en la Campana 2017 del Arzobispo. Por favor responda a su pet-
ición orando con su familia sobre cómo pueden realizar una donación este ano. Su donativo
a la Campana proporcionara vivienda y cubrirá necesidades básicas de
personas sin hogar, de la educación y la formación espiritual de los seminaristas y diáconos,
y de las iniciativas de evangelización u educación para los jóvenes, los adultos jóvenes y fa-
milias en nuestra arquidiócesis. Su generosa donación se puede hacer
rellenando el formulario de compromiso que ha sido enviado a su domicilio o que puede en-
contrar en la parroquia. Una vez completado, coloque su tarjeta de compromiso en el ofertorio durante la misa. Los donativos
también pueden hacerse en línea en www.archsa.org/archbishops-appeal o por teléfono en la Oficina de la Campana, en el 210-
734-1604. Gracias por su generosidad.
Our new office hours are 8:30am-6:00pm. We are closed
12pm-1pm for lunch.
The Spring Semester of TMIY is well
underway. We welcome back the familiar faces along with the new faces. That Man is You!
has lit a fire in the men that have attended the TMIY sessions. We must allow this fire to
"strengthen our love for God" so that we truly
become "A Man after God's own Heart." Jesus Christ personally invited you to be here with
TMIY. We are very excited that you said, "Yes." And we thank you. Every person is called to be holy within
their state in life. For most men this will entail becoming holy as a
husband and father. Not surprisingly, many men miss the call of God because they do not recognize his voice. Ultimately, this is a challenge
of the spiritual life- listen to God. "This says the Lord, he who created
you, O Jacob, he who formed you, O Israel: 'Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine" (Isaiah
43:1). As usual, we ask that you bring your appetite and a friend. "As Iron Sharpens Iron, So one Man Sharpens Another." Proverbs 27:17
Greetings,
My name is Carrie Andrews and I am the coun-
seling intern from the Catholic Charities Counsel-
ing Center who is currently assigned to St Je-
rome. I am looking to start a Self-Care/Support
group for both adults and children. The topics I
will be covering range from dance, art, and music
therapy, to self-care such as cooking, time man-
agement, and relaxation techniques. If interested
please let the office here know. I would like to start these
groups by mid-February so please let the office know by the
end of January. I look forward to seeing you in these groups :)
Thank You
Carrie Andrews
