Collection Feb. 17-18 for the Church in Latin America and Eastern Europe Envelopes are in the pews and at the exits

This year’s campaign highlights the faith of Latin America and the many opportunities we have to share faith with them. We also recognize the tremendous benefit of having our Latin American brothers and sisters in the Church and the revitalization their fervor brings to our faith. In addition to offering our help and support, we have much to learn from them.

The countries in Eastern Europe have faced many years of hardship. They have been op-pressed by czars, radical communism, horrendous crimes against humanity, and revolutionary, civil, and world wars. Under communism, organized religion was opposed in favor of atheism to overthrow the power of the Russian Orthodox Church. Since the collapse of the former Soviet Union in 1991, Eastern European countries have been working to rebuild political structures, social welfare, and their economies. Funds from this collection will help to build the pastoral capacity of the Church and to rebuild and restore the faith in these countries.

Attention Lectors and Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion The next scheduling calendar will be from March 5 to May 7, 2018. Please

put in your request for this upcoming schedule by Wednesday, February 21st in the Scheduling Website or email your request to aonofre@saintjustin.org . You can also call the parish office and leave a message for Amalia.

“We Are One” - Thank you to the 281 fami-lies who have already pledged to support the mis-sion of the Church to teach, preach, minister and serve in the name of Jesus through their financial contribution to the 2018 Pastoral Services Appeal. These families have pledged $62,995.50, with $18,433 being already paid. If you have not yet made your pledge, you may still do so.

CHRISTIAN LIFE PROGRAM The Christian Life Program is a journey in rediscovering God’s love by reflecting on

the Basic Truths about the Catholic Christian Faith. Learn about a Spirit-filled Christian Life from our presenters, the Couples for Christ Family Ministries.

Becoming a disciple of Jesus means accepting the invitation to belong to God’s fam-ily and to live in conformity with His way of life: “For whoever does the will of my Fa-ther in heaven is my brother, and sister, and mother.” (Catechism of the Catholic Church, CCC2233)

The CHRISTIAN LIFE PROGRAM is open to all married couples, single men and women, widows, widowers, divorced and single parents. Kids watch is available.

DATE: Saturdays, from Feb. 24 through May 5 ( no meeting March 31), from 7-9:30 p.m. in the SRE room.

For information call Pete at 714-307-4848, Ed at 714-270-5762, or Lita at 714-423-3355.

An Introduction to the Spiritual Life: Three Ways of Praying

For this Lent we will explore together what exactly is the spiritual life ac-cording to our rich Catholic tradition. We will especially learn how to pray the scriptures (Lectio divina), the psalms, and the Jesus Prayer which is also known as the Prayer of the Heart.

This will be presented over a 3 week period by Fr. John Monestero on Thurs-days, February 22, March 1, and March 8, from 7-9 p.m. in the youth room.

TODAY'S READINGS First Reading — God's covenant with Noah when he was

delivered from the flood (Genesis 9:8-15). Psalm -- Your ways, O Lord, are love and truth to those

who keep your covenant (Psalm 25). Second Reading -- The water of the flood prefigured

baptism, which saves you now (1 Peter 3:18-22). Gospel -- This is the time of fulfillment. The kingdom of

God is at hand (Mark 1:12-15). The English translation of the Psalm Responses from Lectionary for Mass (c) 1969, 1981, 1997, International Commission on English in the Liturgy Corporation. All rights reserved.

St. Justin Martyr Church February 18, 2018

PEOPLE OF THE COVENANT If there is one word that stands out in today's read-

ings, it is "covenant." God's faithfulness and goodness serve as examples to us of how to live. Genesis tells the story of Noah and of God's covenant not only with all people, but with all of nature. Never will the cleansing waters of the flood bring their destructive power to all the earth again. The sign, the reminder to both God and nature, is the rainbow in the heavens.

The psalm reminds us of this compassion of God, and begs God to remember us, not because of our goodness, but because of God's goodness and fidelity to the promise. God shows us how to be good, not by de-cree, but by example. Copyright (c) J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.

What is Alpha? The Alpha Course aims to explore the Christian faith, each week exploring a different question. It is fun, relaxed, totally no pressure--that is probably why over 19 million people around the world have already done it. You will listen, learn, discuss, and discover more about the big questions. How does it work? Each Alpha course session begins with a coffee break, followed by a short talk, looking at a different aspect of the Christian faith. After that, there is a time for discussion in a friendly small group. What is the cost? There is no charge, although you may snacks or drinks. Who is Alpha for? Alpha is for everyone. We especially encourage those who come to church and find it boring, a custom or tradition. Those wanting to investi-gate Christianity. Those who are new to our parish and would like to have sup-port. Those who want to build a stronger community and get to know others. Those who want to get involved in ministry but are unsure where to start. Registration: You do not need to register, but we do encourage it. To register please call the Faith Formation Office at 714-535-6111.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE La Cuaresma tiene sus raíces en la preparación para el

Bautismo de adultos y en el arrepentimiento de pecadores públi-cos. Ambas se concentran en la conversión y en especial en los tres pilares de la misma. La Cuaresma nos da la oportunidad de encontrarnos de manera fuerte y vital con estos tres pilares: ay-unar, ayudar y orar. Éstas son las prácticas cuaresmales que la Iglesia ha ido proclamando y practicando desde tiempos an-tiguos. Son prácticas que los cristianos deberíamos emplear to-dos los días de nuestra vida, pero con mayor fervor durante la Cuaresma para poder celebrar dignamente las fiestas de la Pasión, Muerte y Resurrección de nuestro Señor Jesucristo.

La conversión es un proceso por el cual regresamos a par-ticipar de la vida divina que recibimos en el Bautismo. Dios Pa-dre mandó a su Hijo para salvarnos. He allí el por qué, el ayuno, el altruismo y la oración es colaborar con Dios. Dios mismo co-labora con nosotros derramando su Espíritu en nuestros cora-zones. Con el poder del Espíritu Santo podemos practicar el ay-unar, ayudar y orar de manera vital. --Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM, Copy-right (c) J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.

REFLEXIONES SOBRE LA PALABRA Cruzar nuestros desiertos

Génesis 9:8-15 Estos versículos presentan la alianza de Dios con Noé. La narración aparece en el texto antes de que se hable de la alianza con sobre-mucho antes de la alianza del Sinaí; sin embargo, se trata de un texto de alianza mucho más reciente. Hay una explicación para la inclusión de este texto. Después del exilio, la creencia monoteísta y la consi-guiente paternidad universal de Dios ya están prácticamente consolida-das en Israel; pero, por la conciencia multisecular de los israelitas de ser el pueblo escogido, hay una resistencia a aceptar al resto de los humanos en el mismo plano de igualdad. 1 Pedro 3:18-22 A los primeros cristianos les preocupaba la suerte de los pecadores, en especial, de los que vivieron antes de Cristo. ¿Entraron también ellos en el plan salvador de Dios? Esta preocupación ha estado muy presente en toda la historia de la evangelización. Para darles ánimo y esperanza en la victoria final, el discípulo les presenta el ejemplo del sufrimiento inocente de Cristo, cuya resurrección trajo la oferta de salvación uni-versal a todos. Marcos 1:12-15 El Espíritu que lleva a Jesús al desierto es el mismo que recibió del Padre en el bautismo. El desierto es lugar y tiempo de decisiones. Se opta por Dios o por el mal. Jesús confirma su opción por el proyecto de Dios en claro contraste con la opción que tomó Adán en el Antiguo Testamento.

Nuestra cultura En la mente y el corazón de muchos inmigrantes, el desierto está aso-ciado al sufrimiento y la angustia de tratar de cruzar la frontera.

Reflexiones para la homilía El desierto se puede interpretar de muchas formas. A veces, la

vida puede parecernos un desierto por su aridez, dureza y falta de la felicidad que buscamos. Para quienes han cruzado el desierto en busca de una vida mejor, el lugar puede haber tenido mucho de oportunidad: de encuentro con sí mismos y con las razones más profundas de la existencia, y también de tentación de regresar y abandonar los sueños.

Quienes salen de su patria tienen una especie de misión que cum-plir y, como el desafío es tan enorme y las dificultades tan graves, se puede querer regresar. Los israelitas quisieron volver a Egipto, a pesar de todas las penurias vividas allí. No es difícil imaginar que Jesús tam-bién quisiera regresar al relativo confort de su casa en Nazaret; pero Jesús sabía que tenía una misión que cumplir: la voluntad del Padre de traer la Buena Nueva de la salvación al mundo. Jesús resistió el ham-bre, la sed y la tentación de demostrar su poder fácilmente, y permane-ció en oración en el desierto.

En el contexto de nuestra propia vida, el desierto puede estar in-cluso dentro de nosotros, si sabemos hacer silencio para escuchar a Dios en momentos en que desearíamos estar en otro lugar. En la ora-ción encontraremos motivaciones para nuestros actos y la fuerza de Dios para resistir hacer lo que podría ser más fácil y cómodo, pero no para el bien y la salvación propia, de nuestra familia y de la comuni-dad. Entramos en un desierto con Jesús, para unirnos con él a su obra de salvación. Él nos dará el agua que necesitamos y Dios mismo nos enviará los ángeles que nos sostengan en nuestro a menudo difícil ca-mino por la vida. Para la reflexión ¿Qué decisiones para mi propio bien y el de los demás he tomado? ¿Qué tentaciones me desvían de hacer lo debido? ¿Me apoyo en Dios para hacer lo que Él me ha llamado a hacer y seguirle?

Estamos llamados a ser discípulos de Jesús

El Papa Francisco nos dice que debemos ser discípulos del Señor Jesús; pero ¿cómo? So-mos hombres y mujeres del mundo, con familia, estudios, trabajo y responsabilidades. No todos somos sacerdotes, herma-nas o hermanos ni podemos ir a lugares remotos. No somos mi-sioneros; o ¿sí lo somos? En el bautismo nos dan la bienvenida a la vida y la misión primordial de la Iglesia que es

compartir el Evangelio. Por el bautismo somos llamados a compartir la misión del Señor. Como cristianos estamos llama-dos a vivir de manera que refleje nuestra fe en Cristo y nuestro amor a él. Sabemos por los evangelios que las lecciones más grandes de Jesús fueron a través de sus acciones y la forma en que trataba a los demás. Hoy día tenemos que hacer lo mismo; estamos llamados a ser discípulos de Jesús en nuestra vida diaria. El discipulado se trata de compartir el Evangelio, cuyo significado literal es “buenas noticias”; y nuestro mundo nece-sita desesperadamente buenas noticias en todas partes. Vivir como discípulos suele significar reconocer la conexión entre nuestros dones y talentos, y las necesidades más apremiantes del mundo. Estas necesidades pueden estar al otro lado del mundo o en tu misma calle. El discipulado es una manera de estar en el mundo, atenta a las necesidades de los demás en nuestra comunidad local y global, y consciente de la presencia de Dios en nuestras relaciones con los demás. Para responder al nuevo llamado del Papa Francisco a ser discípulos, primero tenemos que abrirnos a Dios en nuestras vidas. Nos topamos con Dios mil veces al día, con solo abrir los ojos para ver su presencia en nosotros y a nuestro alrede-dor; pero, ¿cómo podemos experimentar a Dios mientras nos acompaña cada día? El Papa Francisco sugiere que el primer paso para buscar y encontrar a Dios es el discernimiento. El discernimiento cristiano significa que saquemos tiempo para reflexionar sobre cómo Dios actúa en nuestra vida. San Ignacio sugiere que nos hagamos tres preguntas todos los días: ¿Dónde estaba Dios hoy, cómo respondí y hacia dónde me dirige Dios mañana? A través de este discernimiento, el discí-pulo puede ver las pequeñas cosas de su vida con la más am-plia perspectiva —la perspectiva del Reino de Dios—. ¿Dónde está Dios? El Señor está en toda persona y en cualquier momento que aumenta en nosotros las milenarias virtudes de fe, esperanza y caridad. Dios está donde uno vive los valores trascendentales de verdad, belleza y bondad. En pocas palabras, Dios está presente en todo lo que te hace ser la mejor versión de ti mismo. Vivimos el discipulado al tratar de lograr que todas nues-tras acciones, palabras y logros sean un reflejo de la persona que Dios nos ha llamado a ser. Aunque a veces no logremos esa meta sabremos que para Jesús que somos una obra en cons-trucción. Las misiones no son una labor de la Iglesia; la Iglesia es, en sí misma, una misión y tú estás en una misión por tu propia naturaleza. La Iglesia y tú son enviados en una nueva misión cada día.
