Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,
Please bring your mobile phone to church on Ash Wednes-
day. Why? If you haven’t already signed up for it, the priest will ask
everyone to pull out their phone during the homily and text
“OPVCATHOLIC” to 84576. This is to activate you into the
Flocknote connection. Flocknote is a way for a church community to
be connected with one another. As we continue to function in five
different churches, it can help us be more aware of what is going on
with our interests in the parish and grouping community. Every
parishioner can sign up for only the information that they want to
receive, and it can work through either text messages to your phone
or email. Over one hundred parishioners are now getting the bulletin
online every week through Flocknote. Others have signed up for
special speakers and presentations that are happening, getting
alerts when a fellow parishioner passes away, Holy and Holiday
service times, schedule alerts and changes due to weather. See the
complete list on page 16 of this bulletin. When you send the
“opvcatholic” text to 84576, you will receive a link to access the other
information, or you can enter your email and complete from your
email. (see the screen to the right). As a playful first event, after all
of our Ash Wednesday services are over, all our parishioners in
Flocknote will be sent a message
asking them to respond with their
favorite Lenten activity (Getting
Ashes, Extra time for Prayer, Fish,
etc…). If you respond, you will be
entered in a drawing for a FREE fish
dinner at one of our four Friday fish
nights.
Lent begins this Ash Wednesday and our parish grouping
is offering prayer and almsgiving as priorities this year. Once again,
we are having Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament in each
church at specified hours during the week. Check out a church time
for you to commit an hour of prayer, adoration, thanksgiving and
petitions you might want to bring to God this season. Times for
adoration are on page 7 in this bulletin and also on the Lenten flyer
on page 15. Black Book Devotionals are available at each church
this weekend for lenten reflections. The small print versions are
available at each church entrance. There are large print versions for
those who need them available in the sacristy at each church. Ask a
priest or lay minister to get you one after Mass. Both small print and
large print are only available while supplies last at each church. For
Almsgiving, we are having donations collected by our Confirmation
class and youth each week. At every Friday Stations of the Cross,
a collection basket will be available for donations to the
Chimbote Foundation, which helps families, expectant mothers
and children in need in the desert impoverished area of Chimbote,
Peru. (See Lenten flyer on page 15 for stations times and locations).
With Lent, our Diocese always begins the Parish Share
Program (PSP) campaign. Bishop Zubik has sent a letter directly to
all registered parishioners in our diocese this year. If you did not
receive it, a copy is on page 13. Our parishes are not yet combined,
but we will all merge in July. Our Parish Share campaign will be
merged together as we become one parish. Our combined Parish
Share Goal is a whopping $458,928. Part of that was due to the
generous donation to our parishes from a large bequest last year.
Otherwise, the amount would be around $280,000. Regardless, any
donation to parish share helps our grouping and our parishes.
Please consider a one time gift or a weekly donation noted on your
weekly offering envelopes. An explanation of how contributing to
Parish Share can help our parishes is shown in the box on this page.
Thank you for your generosity to our parishes & The Parish Share
Program. In Christ’s Love,
Father Kevin
Fr. Kevin Poecking
Administrator,
OPV Catholic Churches
Fr. Kevin Poecking

Parish Share Program (PSP) Example
As an example, if our combined offertory and income for our
parishes totaled $1 million dollars a year, every year. Our parish
share goal would be calculated as 17.6%, or $176,000. We pay
that amount even if we don’t raise any money for PSP, and we
don’t pay more, if we raise more. So as another example, let’s
say we raised $200,000 every year to meet and exceed our
goal. Our offertory collections would be $800,000 plus $200,000
to Parish Share. We would send $176,000 to the Diocese for the
shared services our parish shares in. We would keep $824,000 to
be used in our parish for staff salaries and services. Even though
we raised an extra $24,000, we could use that for parish projects
and improvements. However, next year, we would only have a
Parish Share Goal of $140,800, over $35,200 less. And we
would keep almost $860,000, after we raised our parish share
goal or exceeded it. This is almost $36,000 more that we could
use for needed parish programs and services, all while supporting
the Parish Share Program.
LENTEN REGULATIONS
1. Ash Wednesday and Good Friday are days of fast and
abstinence. The Fridays of Lent are days of abstinence in the United
States.
2. The obligation of abstinence (refraining from eating meat) begins at
the age of 14. The law of fasting (limiting oneself to one full meal and
two lighter meals) obliges all between the ages of 18-59. No one should
consider this obligation lightly.
3. Those individuals who have a medical condition in which fasting may
be considered harmful are not obliged to fast, but should perform some
other act of penance or charity.
4. Pastors and parents are to see to it that minors, though not bound by
the law of fast and abstinence, are educated in the authentic sense of
penance and encouraged to do acts of penance suitable to their age.
5. All members of the Christian Faithful are encouraged to do acts of
penance and charity during the Lenten season beyond what is pre-
scribed by the law.
6. As a general rule, a request for a dispensation from the obligation of
abstinence on Fridays of Lent will not be considered unless some
serious reason is present. The attendance at social events, banquets,
wedding rehearsals or receptions, or funeral wakes are not considered
sufficient reason to request a dispensation.

SCRIPTURE READINGS FOR THE SEVENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
READING I LV 19:1-2, 17-18
The LORD said to Moses, “Speak to the whole Israelite
community and tell them: Be holy, for I, the LORD, your God, am
holy.
“You shall not bear hatred for your brother or sister in your heart.
Though you may have to reprove your fellow citizen, do not incur
sin because of him. Take no revenge and cherish no grudge
against any of your people. You shall love your neighbor as
yourself. I am the LORD.”
RESPONSORIAL PSALM PS 103:1-2, 3-4, 8, 10, 12-13
R. The Lord is kind and merciful
Bless the LORD, O my soul; and all my being, bless his holy
name. Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits.
R. The Lord is kind and merciful
He pardons all your iniquities, heals all your ills. He redeems your
life from destruction, crowns you with kindness and compassion.
R. The Lord is kind and merciful
Merciful and gracious is the LORD, slow to anger and abounding
in kindness. Not according to our sins does he deal with us,nor
does he requite us according to our crimes.
R. The Lord is kind and merciful
As far as the east is from the west, so far has he put our
transgressions from us. As a father has compassion on his
children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear him.
R. The Lord is kind and merciful
READING 2 1 COR 3:16-23
Brothers and sisters: Do you not know that you are the temple of
God, and that the Spirit of God dwells in you? If anyone destroys
God’s temple, God will destroy that person; for the temple of God,
which you are, is holy.
Let no one deceive himself. If any one among you considers
himself wise in this age, let him become a fool, so as to become
wise. For the wisdom of this world is foolishness in the eyes of
God, for it is written: God catches the wise in their own ruses, and
again: The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are
vain.
So let no one boast about human beings, for everything belongs
to you, Paul or Apollos or Cephas, or the world or life or death, or
the present or the future: all belong to you, and you to Christ, and
Christ to God.
R. Alleluia, alleluia. 1 JN 2:5
Whoever keeps the word of Christ, the love of God is truly
perfected in him.
R. Alleluia, alleluia.
GOSPEL MT 5:38-48
Jesus said to his disciples:
““You have heard that it was said, An eye for an eye and a tooth
for a tooth. But I say to you, offer no resistance to one who is evil.
When someone strikes you on your right cheek, turn the other one
as well. If anyone wants to go to law with you over your tunic,
hand over your cloak as well. Should anyone press you into
service for one mile, go for two miles. Give to the one who asks of
you, and do not turn your back on one who wants to borrow.
“You have heard that it was said, You shall love your neighbor
and hate your enemy. But I say to you, love your enemies and
pray for those who persecute you, that you may be children of
your heavenly Father, for he makes his sun rise on the bad and
the good, and causes rain to fall on the just and the unjust.
For if you love those who love you, what recompense will you
have? Do not the tax collectors do the same? And if you greet
your brothers only, what is unusual about that? Do not the pagans
do the same? So be perfect, just as your heavenly Father is
perfect.”
LA ADORACIÓN EUCARÍSTICA �
(Carta del Cardenal Norberto Rivera, segunda parte)�
�
Ir al Sagrario, asistir a la adoración eucarística solemne o visitar
los “monumentos” durante la Semana Santa, es ir a dialogar
cordialmente con Cristo, desde lo más profundo del corazón. Es
hacer un acto de presencia ante el Redentor, poner en sus ma-
nos los esfuerzos y la voluntad de corresponder a su gracia para
buscar la santidad. Es aprender las lecciones que nos da Jesu-
cristo desde el Sacramento de la Eucaristía, su humildad, su
generosidad en la entrega. De esos contactos con Jesucristo en
la Eucaristía deben brotar la gratitud, el aliento en la lucha de
cada día (Cf Job 7, 1), la confianza y la alegría de estar con Él,
el deseo de imitarlo en la aceptación de la voluntad del Padre y
en su entrega a la salvación de los demás. Por ello, este tipo de
visitas no pueden convertirse en un acto rutinario, frío y despro-
visto de sentido, que ni siquiera toque la periferia de nuestras
vidas.�
�
La adoración eucarística puede ser también solemne, cuando se
expone la Sagrada Hostia en el ostensorio. Este acto de culto se
puede hacer en cualquier templo en el que se conserve la Euca-
ristía. Lo hace el diácono o el sacerdote que toman la Sagrada
Forma del Sagrario y la colocan en un ostensorio desde el cual
puedan verla los fieles. Se presenta a la adoración de los pre-
sentes durante un tiempo considerable en el que se puede tener
un rato de oración en silencio o una lectura bíblica con explica-
ción, cantos eucarísticos u oraciones por diversas necesidades.
Al final, el obispo, el sacerdote o el diácono imparten la bendi-
ción con el Santísimo Sacramento; sin embargo, no está permiti-
da la exposición que se hace sólo para dar la bendición eucarís-
tica.�
�
En los grupos de nuestra arquidiócesis, donde se hace adora-
ción eucarística frecuente, busquen convertir esos encuentros en
un momento de oración por toda la Iglesia. Hagan una fervorosa
oración de súplica al Padre, Dios Omnipotente, unidos a Jesu-
cristo, por la Iglesia, por el Papa, por los Obispos y los sacerdo-
tes, por las vocaciones sacerdotales, por la salvación de los
hombres y por todos los hermanos que sufren persecución, en-
carcelamiento, pobreza, enfermedades, penas morales. Arran-
quen con su oración la misericordia de Dios Omnipotente. Medi-
ten el Evangelio ante el Santísimo Sacramento, expresen en sus
oraciones públicas los sentimientos de�fe�en Jesucristo, Hijo de
Dios vivo y Salvador de los hombres (Cf Juan 3, 17);
de�esperanza�en Él pidiéndole su ayuda de Amigo fiel y Dios
Todopoderoso, que todo lo alcanza; y de�amor�a Jesucristo por
ser quien es y por los dones que nos ha entregado: la creación,
la redención, la vocación al amor. Fomenten mucho estos gru-
pos de adoración que son siempre una abundante fuente de
crecimiento espiritual y de frutos para la Iglesia.�

EASTER CANDLE
This year will probably be the last year for each of our
parishes to have a newly blessed Easter/Paschal
candle. In future years, being one parish, we will only
bless one candle at the Easter Vigil. In the past, some
individuals offered to purchase the Easter Candle in memory of a
loved one or family members. The Easter/Paschal Candle is used
throughout the year for all baptisms and funerals and throughout the
Easter season. If you or your family are interested in doing that,
contact Karen Deemer at (412) 793-4511 X201 or at
[email protected]. The costs are as follows:
St. John the Baptist—$291.23
St. Irenaeus & Our Lady of Joy—$202.01
St. Joseph—$168.28
St. Januarius—$119.87

The most recent mixes of choir for the Oakmont/

liturgy with combining for select weekends. We are going to mix
choirs again next month. These are the dates for the “mixing”:
Oakmont & Verona Catholic choirs
2/23 at 11 a.m. at St. Irenaeus (previously 2/9/20)

Conversational Spanish for Seniors
The OLOJ SOS Ministry team is considering offering a course to the senior
population in our OPV group. The course would be “Conversational Span-
ish” and would be taught by parishioner Diane Vitalbo, retired Plum Spanish
teacher. She is proposing to offer the class once a week for an hour and it
would run for 4 weeks. If we have enough interest to offer the course, we
would start in the spring at Our Lady of Joy. In order to gauge how many
people would willing to commit to taking this class, please call Diane at 412
-798-9147 to register before March 15, 2020.
