Su sombrero era viejo; su abrigo gastado;

el agua penetraba la suela de sus zapatos;

y las estrellas penetraban su alma.—Víctor Hugo

Feb. 10-11 Sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time

In the Gospel today, Jesus continues his healing ministry by curing a leper. Who are those who are considered “unclean” in our society today? Who are those that must remain separated from the community? They might be those coming out of jails, or those suffering from mental illness. They might be suffering from a disease that we fear - like Ebola or AIDS. They might be undocumented immigrants who fear that their families might be deported and torn apart. They might be the poor just struggling to keep their lives together. How can we continue the ministry of Jesus today by reaching out to those who feel rejected and cast out of society?

Febrero 10-11 Sexto Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario

En el Evangelio de hoy, Jesús continúa su ministerio sanador curando a un leproso ¿Quiénes son aquellos que en

nuestra sociedad consideramos “impuros” en la actualidad? ¿Quiénes son aquellos que deben permanecer separados de la comunidad? Puede que sean aquellos que están saliendo de la cárcel, o aquellos sufriendo por una enfermedad mental. Puede que estén sufriendo por una enfermedad que nosotros tememos - como el Ébola o el SIDA. Puede que sean inmigrantes indocumentados que temen que sus familias puedan ser deportadas y desechas. Puede que sean los pobres luchando por salir adelante ¿Cómo podemos continuar con el ministerio de Jesús hoy acercándonos a aquellos que se sienten rechazados y alejados de la sociedad?

LETTER FROM OUR PASTOR/CARTA DE NUESTRO PARROCODear parishioners,The holy season of Lent begins on Ash Wednesday of this week. The forty days of Lent are an opportunity to advance in holiness by practicing prayer, fasting and almsgiving.

As we receive the blessed ashes we will hear the words addressed personally to us: “Remember you are dust, and to dust you shall return.” These words are taken from the Book of Genesis (3:19). The Lord God first spoke to Adam and Eve as they left the Garden of Eden. They kept these words as a treasure and transmitted them from one generation to another until they were recorded in the pages of the Holy Bible. We too, are encouraged to keep these words close to our hearts. The phrase “Remember you are dust, and to dust you shall return” is a continual reminder that the world as we know it is passing and that as we fix our attention and our hope on the life of faith in God then we shall be directed in a safe path to the world that will never pass away.

May you and your loved ones live a holy Lent so that the blessings of this season will rest in your hearts and bear the fruits of holiness.

Your Pastor,Father David.

Queridos Feligreses,La temporada Santa de Cuaresma comienza el Miércoles de Ceniza en esta semana. Los 40 días de Cuaresma son una oportunidad para avanzar en santidad mediante la práctica de la oración, el ayuno y la limosna.

Al recibir las cenizas bendecidas escucharemos las palabras dirigidas personalmente a nosotros: “Recuerda que eres polvo, y al polvo volverás.” Estas palabras son tomadas del libro de Génesis (3:19). El

Señor Dios les habló por primera vez a Adán y a Eva cuando salieron del jardín del Edén. Guardaron estas palabras como un tesoro y las transmitieron de una generación a otra hasta que fueron grabadas en las páginas de la Santa Biblia. Nosotros también nos animamos a mantener estas palabras cerca de nuestros corazones. La frase “Recuerda que eres polvo, y al polvo volverás” es un recordatorio continuo de que el mundo, como lo conocemos, está pasando y que, al fijar nuestra atención y nuestra esperanza en la vida de fe

en Dios, entonces es cuando seremos dirigimos a un camino seguro al mundo que nunca pasará.

Que ustedes y sus seres queridos vivan una Cuaresma Santa para que las bendiciones de esta temporada descansen en vuestros corazones y reciban los frutos de la santidad.

Su Párroco,Padre David.

El Amor ReveladoEl matrimonio es más que la unión entre un esposo y una esposa; también es un sacramento, es decir, un signo externo, instituido por Cristo, que imparte la gracia transformadora de Dios. Los votos del Sacramento del Matrimonio son profundamente importantes porque la alianza de amor se expresa en los votos entre el esposo y la esposa, que se hacen un signo real y vivo del amor de Cristo por la Iglesia. Al demostrar el amor de Cristo, que es sacrificial, libre, fiel y fructífero, en tu relación con tu cónyuge, le ayudas a otros a experimentar la gracia y la presencia de Dios en el mundo. ¡Es por eso que es importante el matrimonio!

Does Marriage Matter?Long before cultures or governments ever discussed marriage, God placed on the human heart a longing for the unique, lifelong commitment, and total self-giving love found in the Sacrament of Matrimony. What does God’s design mean for us in our daily lives together? A remarkable assembly of experts shows us the answer.

This is open to everyone come join us for this year’s Adult Faith Formation Program. Classes will follow the RE calendar for the year. For more information please contact the RE Office.

¿Deseas aprender más sobre nuestra fe? ¿Esperas a tus hijos salir de clases de Educación Religiosa sentado(a) en tu carro? Tenemos algo para ti. Se ofrecerán clases los miércoles por la noche a las 6:45 p.m. en el salón de los Caballeros de Colon (PAC301) en inglés con Anna Lara y en español con Art Lara en el salón 208 del edificio de Educación. También vamos a tener una sesión en español los domingos a las 9:45 a.m. en el salón 208 del edificio de Educación presentada por Martha Calderón.

Estas presentaciones son para todos, vengan y acompáñenos en este programa de Formación de Fe Adulta. Las clases seguirán el calendario de Educación Religiosa todo el año. Para obtener más información póngase en contacto con la oficina de Educación Religiosa.
