5th SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
DEAR PARISHIONERS and VISITORS:
Prayer for Ash W ednesday
We begin the liturgical season of Lent on Wednesday
February 10th. Lent has two major purposes: it calls us to a
deeper appreciation of our baptism promises and it
emphasizes a spirit of penance. Through forty days of closer
attention to God’s Word and of more fervent prayer, we are
drawn to be closer to the passion, death and resurrection of
Jesus.
We think of the social consequences of sin and renew our
desire to turn from sin and to do the good which needs to be
done. A Share Lent collection in the 5th week of Lent helps
us to support the work of the Canadian bishops through the
Development and Peace organization in developing
countries.
Some special devotions during Lent help us to broaden
and deepen our prayer experience.
Stations of the Cross will be prayed on Friday and
Wednesday in Lent after the 5:10 pm Mass, starting on
Friday Feb 12.
Please ask the Holy Spirit to let you know what God
wants you to do this Lent to make it special. On your part,
have some quiet time in the next few days to listen in a
deeper way to the Holy Spirit speaking to you personally
about Lent.
Fr. Galvon

Prelude and Fugue in E m inor
Señor, nos escuchaste cuando te invocamos En el evangelio
que San Lucas narra el milagro de la pesca milagrosa. El episodio
tiene notable paralelo con el que se narra en el evangelio de San
Juan. Tienen semejanzas bastante considerables a pesar de las
diferencias de tiempo y de circunstancia. Tres detalles son
particularmente típicos: a) la pesca milagrosa tiene lugar después
de una noche de trabajo gastada inútilmente; b) a pesar de la
gran cantidad de peces la red no se rompió; c) el relato de San
Lucas, como el de Juan, termina con una palabra de Jesús a San
Pedro sobre el futuro apostolado.
Toma en cuenta El Miércoles 10 de Febrero es Miércoles de
Ceniza. Sabemos ello da comienzo al tiempo de Cuaresma,
tiempo de recogimiento, reflexión, ayunos, y acordarnos y ayudar
a quienes tienen necesidades materiales.
La Palabra en tu vida El Señor sigue llamando a personas
para continuar proclamando la Buena Noticia por todo el mundo.
Para esta misión el Señor ha escogido a algunos, pero no todos
responden a este llamado. Señor Jesús, dame fuerza, sabiduria
y humildad para proclamar tu Evangelio.
Génesis Recientemente se han unido al taller de lectura de la
Palabra tres varones lo cual nos da mucha alegría. Seguimos
recibiendo con entusiasmo a quienes quieran integrarse al grupo.
Para mayor información pregunta a la salida de Misa por Maritza
o Edna.

Moments of Mercy
As Catholics we take up the Lenten practices of prayer, fasting, and
almsgiving every year. These practices help us to remember the merciful
love and compassion that God shows all people. Participating in these
practices, we journey toward repentance with our community and God and
toward the celebration of the Paschal Mystery of our Lord. We do not make
this journey alone. The whole Church prepares for the celebration and
together, along with those who are preparing to enter the Church at the
Easter Vigil, we try to live more faithfully to God's call to be merciful, loving,
and compassionate to those around us. Our acts of love through sacrifice
and prayer are a tangible witness of God's love to those around us. 1) Spend
some time in reflection about why you choose to participate in the prayer,
fasting, and almsgiving of the Church during this Lenten season. Next time
someone asks you why you aren't eating the chicken on Friday in the
lunchroom, you'll be better prepared to share your belief in God who is
merciful and compassionate. 2) Share with someone what your Lenten
practices will be this year. This is not to brag about how good you are at
following Christ, rather, it allows us to each have something of an
"accountability partner" so that we can strive to be a more credible witness
to our faith.
