MERCY MOMENTS
BY: DEACON TOM DRISCOLL
The third work of mercy Jesus specifies is “welcome the stranger.” (Matt. 25:35.) Our
loving God has always required hospitality, ever reminding His children of their
fundamental solidarity: “The stranger who sojourns with you shall be to you as the native
among you, and you shall love him as yourself; for you were strangers in the land of
Egypt.” (Lv. 19:34.) God loves the stranger (Dt. 10:18), which is very reassuring, since
we all, at one time or another, “a passing guest, a sojourner, like all my fathers.” (Ps.
39:12)
Welcoming the stranger is often hard, yet we know in our hearts that opportunities
abound: the stranger on the street seeking help of some kind; the family member or
neighbor with whom we don’t speak; those with a culture or language different from our
own. We put ourselves out to get ready for visits with family and friends to make sure they
are comfortable and feel loved, but do we put ourselves out to show the same hospitality
toward the strangers we encounter, whomever and wherever they are? We should “put ourselves out” for Christ
in all our brothers and sisters.
Mercy Challenge for the week: Smile and greet the strangers you encounter this week, don’t just walk by.
\\
MOMENTOS DE MISERICORDIA
BY: DEACON TOM DRISCOLL
La tercera Obra de Misericordia que Jesús especifica es "dar la bienvenida al extranjero". (Mateo 25: 35).
Nuestro Dios amoroso ha requerido siempre hospitalidad, recordando siempre a Sus hijos de su solidaridad
fundamental: "El será para ustedes como uno de sus compatriotas y lo amarás como a ti mismo, porque ustedes
fueron extranjeros en Egipto." (Lv. 19:34.) Dios ama al extranjero (Dt. 10:18), que es muy tranquilizante, ya que
todos, en un momento u otro, hemos sido "un invitado de paso, peregrino, como todos mis padres” (Sal. 39:12).
A veces dar la bienvenida al extranjero es difícil, pero sabemos en nuestros corazones que abundan las
oportunidades: el extraño en la calle buscando ayuda de algún tipo; el miembro de la familia o vecino con quien
no hablamos; aquellos con una cultura o idioma diferente de la nuestra. Nos preparamos para las visitas con
familiares y amigos para asegurarnos de que estén cómodos y se sientan amados, pero ¿mostramos la misma
hospitalidad hacia los extranjeros que encontramos, quienquiera y dondequiera que estén? Debemos mostrar la
misma hospitalidad para Cristo en nuestros hermanos y hermanas.
Desafío de Misericordia para la semana: Sonreír y saludar a los extranjero que encontramos esta semana, no
solo pasar por enfrente de ellos.

PANTHER PAUSE GOSPEL REFLECTION
On Luke 4:1-13
“I think this gospel passage means to not
get tempted by the devil and worship only
one God. I think the gospel passage also
means to not trust the devil in anyway. It
also means to not put anything before
God in your life. It also means never obey
the devil and disobey God always try to
Obey God.”
“This gospel passage is saying that the
devil is tempting Jesus just like he
tempts us. We have to try and be like
Jesus and try to ignore him. This means
instead of doing what you know is wrong
you should do what is right.”
This week we present the reflection of some of
our 3rd Graders at St. Anne’s Catholic School.
What did the Gospel say to you?
“I think this gospel passage means
to listen to your heart and not do
mean or bad things. In the gospel
passage Jesus says, “one does not
live on bread alone.” That means
that you do not live all on food you
live on Gods love too. The devil tries
to tempt me too like the devil
tempts me to hit my sister but I
don’t.

Parish Lenten Mission
Mon., Feb. 15th— Thurs., Feb. 18th
In the Church
Who me? Why me? What should I do?
What should I say? Where should I go? But what if…?
If truth be told, by the time we are young adults we have asked God hundreds, if
not thousands, of questions, particularly when we don’t know what to do. And why
not? Who else should we turn to when we have questions if not to God?
This Lent however God wants to ask you a few questions of His own. Why would
God, who knows everything already, want to ask me questions?
Abbot Damien will offer a reflection on 4 different questions (1 each night) that
God Himself has asked in Sacred Scripture. These questions will encourage you,
challenge you and draw you deeper into the love God has for you as you prepare for
the solemn celebration of the Resurrection of Jesus. Join us for our Parish Mission this
Lent!
Each evening will begin at 6:30pm with a Bilingual Mass and will be followed by a talk.
Ejercicios Espirituales de Cuaresma
Lunes, 15 de Febrero — Jueves, 18 de Febrero
En La Iglesia
¿Yo? ¿Por qué yo? ¿Qué debo hacer? ¿Qué debo decir? ¿Dónde debo ir? ¿Pero qué pasa si...?
La verdad es que cuando llegamos a ser adultos jóvenes le hemos hecho a Dios cientos, si no miles, de preguntas,
especialmente cuando no sabemos qué hacer. Y ¿por qué no? ¿A quién más nos debemos de dirigir cuando tenemos
preguntas si no a Dios?
Sin embargo, esta Cuaresma Dios nos quiere hacer unas preguntas. ¿Por qué Dios que ya lo sabe todo, me
pregunta?
El Abad Damien ofrecerá una reflexión sobre 4 diferentes preguntas (1 cada noche) que Dios mismo ha
preguntado en las Sagradas Escrituras. Estas preguntas le animará, retará y le llevará más profundamente en el amor
que Dios tiene para usted mientras se prepara para la celebración solemne de la resurrección de Jesús. Únase a
nosotros y participe en estos Ejercicios Espirituales de Cuaresma!
Cada noche comienza a las 6:30pm con una Misa bilingüe y será seguido por una platica.
