Scriptural Reflections on Stewardship
*
April 17 - 8 pm Mystery Players in church; Confirmation
Candidates to attend!
*
April 18 - Chrism Mass Cathedral in Newark; Confirmation Candidates must attend wearing their red t-shirts.
Jesus, humbling himself out of love for us, did
not shield his face from buffets and spitting, but offered his life on the cross. He relied on his Father’s
*
love.
"Morning after morning he opens my ear that I may hear..." - Isaiah
50:4
*
God will open our ears every day so that we may know His will. We
simply need to make it a spiritual practice to constantly ask God to
give us the grace to hear and follow Him. Archbishop Myers recommends that we pray every day, "Lord, what do you want me to do
with all the gifts that you have given me?"
Every Tuesday, the Blessed
Sacrament is exposed in
the church from 3 to 4 p.m. It
is an hour of prayer for the priests, religious
men and women and an increase of vocations
to the priesthood and the religious life of the
Church. We invite you to come and spend
time with the Lord for these intentions and
for your personal requests. Holy Hour closes
with Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament.
April 18,19,20 - First Communion Practice in Church 12

GRUPO DE ORACION
Te invita a que nos unamos en oración
por cada una de tus necesidades. Seremos una gran familia en nuestros encuentros semanales parroquiales.
Iglesia Sta Ana, Martes 7:00 de la noche !Acompañanos!.
La Oración
Hay muchas maneras y formas y de oración:
Oración de petición: La forma más inferior de oración, no está mal, pero tenemos que tener cuidado que nuestra
oración no sólo sea una lista de cosas para que el Señor nos las de.
Oración de intercession: Consiste en pedir por alguna persona que no es uno mismo. Pedir a Dios algo para alguien, o pedir para
alguna cosa más general.
Oración de arrepentimiento: Pedir perdón por nuestros pecados. Pedir perdón cuando le fallamos a Dios.
Oración de reparación: Pedir perdón por los pecados de otros. Hay personas que no se arrepienten y podemos orar a Dios por esas
personas.
Oración de agradecimiento: El significado de esta forma de oración es claro. Pero… cuántas veces oramos agradeciendo a Dios
por todo lo que nos da?
Oración de entrega: Es una oración de confianza en Dios. Como no confiar en El que es nuestro Padre y que desea lo mejor para
nuestro bien?
Oración de alabanza: Decirle a Dios lo grande que es, lo bueno que es, las maravillas que ha hecho y hace en nuestras vidas.
Oración de adoración: La forma más elevada de oración. Adorar a Dios es reconocerlo como nuestro Creador y nuestro Dueño.
Dependemos de El y nos entregamos a El… nos entregamos a su Voluntad.
En la Cuaresma debemos aumentar nuestra oración, es un regalo que Dios nos ha dado. Es un privilegio que tenemos de poder
dirigirnos a nuestro Creador… y que El nos escuche.
Questions and Answers on the Mass Changes
April 17, 2011 - Part 7 of 7
On November 27, 2011, the English speaking Church in the USA will begin using a new translation of the prayers used at Mass (The
Roman Missal). A series of Questions and Answers on this topic will be posted here to help explain the thinking behind these
changes. Please check back weekly.
9. Do these changes mean that the old translation was not valid and orthodox?
The current translation was approved by the conferences of bishops and confirmed by the Holy See. Until the new text becomes effective, the current translation remains the valid ordinary form of the Liturgy in the Roman Rite. The revised translation attempts to
address some inadequacies in the present translation by introducing a more elevated style of language and by retaining many poetic
texts and scriptural allusions. The current translation fostered the faith of two generations of Catholics and retains a valid place in
church history.
10. What opportunities does the new Missal offer the Church?
Implementing the new Missal will give the Church an opportunity to take a fresh look at its liturgical practice and to renew its celebration of the Sacred Liturgy, which is the “source and summit” of Christian life (Second Vatican Council, Dogmatic Constitution
on the Church [Lumen Gentium], no. 11). The faithful, encountering the Liturgy anew in the new text, can deepen their sharing in
Christ’s sacrifice, offering their lives to the Father as they worship “in Spirit and truth” (Jn 4:23).

9:00 AM Prayer Svc-Church
Evangelization Corner……
Reflecting On The Gospel - Every Palm Sunday we hear two readings proclaimed from the Gospel. One is proclaimed when the palms
are blessed; we hear about Jesus entering Jerusalem and the welcome that the people gave him.
Then at the Gospel, we hear about Jesus being betrayed, the last meal he share with his apostles, and his arrest, suffering and death.
We can’t help but notice that only a few days after being welcomed into Jerusalem with “Hosanna” (a shout of jubilation), Jesus is
abandoned;”...all the disciples left him and fled”.
We might wonder how we would have behaved if we’d been one of Jesus’ disciples. Would we, too, have fled or would we have remained at Jesus’ side no matter what? More important, though, is to think about the present and the future. We can be loyal to Jesus
today, tomorrow and forever.
How can we be loyal to Jesus? We can be loyal to Jesus in living the way he taught us that is the way of love. When we offer our help to
those who are in need - those who don’t have friends, enough to eat or drink, or those who do not have shelter - we are being loyal to
Jesus. We are not abandoning him because we are not abandoning those who are in need.
Sharing Ideas - How does it feel to be abandoned by friends? How do you think the apostles felt after they ran off and abandoned Jesus?
Acting - As a group, commit to being loyal to Jesus by helping others, not just as a project but as a way of life.
