IT IS YOUR FACE, O LORD, THAT I SEEK; HIDE NOT YOUR FACE FROM ME. PSALM 27:8-9 Abram’s faith is sealed with a covenant initiated by God (1), our light and our salvation (Ps). The transfiguration of Jesus (3) prefigures the transformation in glory to which we are called by our sharing in the paschal mystery the dying and rising of Jesus (2). FIRST READING — GENESIS 15:5– 12 The Lord made a covenant with Abram. RESPONSORIAL PSALM — PSALM 27 The Lord is my light and my salvation. SECOND READING — PHILIPPIANS 3:17 Our citizenship is in heaven. GOSPEL — LUKE 9:28 Atop a mountain, Jesus was transfigured before Peter, James, and John. PLEASE PRAY for the repose of the soul of the mother of Margaret Howell, Veronica O’Brien, who passed into eternal life on February 16, 2013. T REASURE S T FROM OUR RADITIONS By now, many may have failed in Lenten discipline to some measure or another: the daily doughnut is simply too alluring, or a furtive puff on a cigarette irresistible. There is meaning even in the failure, though, a kind of reminder that we cannot save ourselves. Part of the power of Lent is that we do it together, and although individuals decide on different ways to keep it, it is fundamentally the same journey. We fall, we get up, we keep moving. The desire to “give something up” for Lent is an age‑old impulse in the Christian heart. We get better at it over the years, and move more deeply into the meaning and message of acts of sacrifice; so there is no shame in stumbling, as long as we are not discouraged by the failure and give up. We are clearing space in our lives, after all, and some of the things we desire to give up are worth rooting out completely anyway. What do we do with the space we have cleared out by our sacrifice? The Lenten question of giving up is balanced by the Easter question of our response to Christ’s embrace of us in love: “What are you James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co. taking on for Easter?” O GOD, who have commanded us to listen to your beloved son, be pleased, we pray, to nourish us inwardly by your word, that, with spiritual sight made pure, we may rejoice to behold your glory. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen. TRUST “In God We Trust” marks the currency of our nation. It should mark our lives as well. In fact, however, we hesitate to trust others, including God, absolutely. We prefer to hold our trust in reserve, fearful of being hurt or betrayed. Today’s readings remind us that Lent is a season of trust—a trust that transforms. God makes a remarkable promise to Abraham. To receive this promise, all Abraham need do is trust. Paul tells the Philippians that they too must trust that they are the beneficiaries of God’s bountiful grace; that they are not citizens of any earthly kingdom, but citizens of heaven. These two readings invite us to hear the Gospel account of deep trust—trust that God will fulfill all promises and that Jesus’ passage will lead to transformation and new life. Copyright © J. S.

Taylor Diocese of Little Rock January 31, 2013 The central teaching of Catholic social doctrine is the sanctity and dignity of the human person. This pro-life tradition means more than just opposing the intentional destruction of life before birth, it calls for affirming life at all times and at every stage. Referred to as the Catholic Consistent Life Ethic, the Church’s concern extends beyond its members to the common good of all people. Thus, the Catholic Church seeks access to decent housing, a just wage, educational opportunity and essential health care for all in society. The working poor in Arkansas are a particular concern at this time. Their need for adequate health care within their means is why I support and encourage the 89th General Assembly to expand access to Medicaid in Arkansas. There are many legitimate interests competing for limited resources to fund state services in Arkansas. Our leaders must often establish priorities based on considerations they do not control. Yet, respecting life and its inherent dignity should always be guiding principles in legislative decisions. The Rand Corp recently published a report projecting that 2,300 lives would be saved in Arkansas annually if Medicaid is expanded to 250,000 additional citizens. Certainly, pain and suffering would also be alleviated. People who now appear in the hospital emergency room with advanced conditions would have the coverage necessary to access timely, primary health care to address conditions when they are easier and less expensive to treat. Last summer, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that under the Affordable Care Act states have the option to expand Medicaid coverage to people who do not qualify for the program at present and who are unable to afford private coverage or participate in the state’s health insurance exchange. Since that time, the federal government has offered to fund the full cost of this expansion in Arkansas for a period of three years. Additionally Arkansans will not have to pay for more than 10 percent of the costs of the expansion in the future. The savings and revenue to local hospitals, jobs created and income and sales taxes generated by the infusion of funds will offset all or most of that cost. Legitimate concerns certainly do exist about the federal debt but denying a quarter million of our people access to health care will not improve that debt. Arkansas Advocates for Children and Families reports that Medicaid expansion could give coverage to nearly 250,000 Arkansans who are presently uninsured. Medicaid coverage would provide basic health care; people would be able to see a doctor before health issues spin out of control. Preventive care and early diagnosis would mean fewer emergency room visits and health care costs would be lowered for everyone. This would truly benefit the common good. It helps to put some real life statistics behind the 250,000 and realize most are hardworking, but low-paid adults doing things to help many of us. According to a recent chart in Arkansas Business, there are 314,000 people in Arkansas working for wages between $7.50 and $9.99 per hour. Many of these hardworking people are either selfemployed or work for small businesses that do not offer insurance. The Medicaid expansion will help many of these people get the coverage they need to stay healthier and better able to support their families. The irony is, whether or not the state expands Medicaid, those above the poverty line will obtain subsidized insurance coverage within the Insurance Exchange. Those below the poverty level -- many of those low-wage but hard-working people -- will not qualify for any health coverage without the Medicaid expansion as they are not eligible to participate in the exchange. Experts estimate that Medicaid expansion will save the state money, while at the same time stimulating the state’s economy. According to the University of Arkansas Sam M. Walton College of Business, every dollar the state spends on Medicaid results in a sixfold increase in spending through the local economy. In 2009 alone, Medicaid spending in Arkansas created 70,277 jobs. Medicaid expansion is expected to create many more new jobs. While Medicaid expansion will benefit the Arkansas economy, Catholic support is not based on dollars and cents. We know that the role of government is to foster the common good. This includes making sure that everyone has ready access to the things needed to lead a truly human life with dignity. Pope Benedict XVI teaches that health is a “precious asset” to society that government should protect by “dedicating the equipment, resources and energy so that the greatest number of people can have access.” For 100 years, America’s Catholic bishops have been a voice calling for universal health care as necessary for life and human dignity, especially for the poor and immigrants. All people need affordable, quality health care, without regard to where or whether they work, how much they earn or where they live. No human being is expendable. A just and moral health care policy reflects this truth and promotes preventive care and early treatment for all. It is wasteful and an injustice to us all for the working poor to have to resort to health care through a costly trip to the hospital emergency room. The legacy of the 89th General Assembly can be its courageous concern for the common good by expanding Medicaid to cover 250,000 uninsured Arkansans. Taking this step will produce moral, social and economic benefits for our state and affirm that Arkansas respects the dignity and God-given worth of all who make their home here.

Y sucedió que mientras oraba, el aspecto de su rostro cambió, y sus vestidos eran de una blancura fulgurante". Esta es la descripción de la Transfiguración del Señor según el relato de Lucas. El Evangelio sigue diciendo más adelante: "Pedro y sus compañeros estaban cargados de sueño, pero permanecieron despiertos, y vieron su gloria". ¿Qué experiencia es esta de "ver su gloria"? ¿Qué es lo que vieron en concreto? Es imposible decirlo con este lenguaje nuestro. Eso que ellos vieron en esa ocasión es lo que, según San Pablo, Dios tiene preparado a los que lo aman: "Lo que ni el ojo vio, ni el oído oyó, ni al corazón del hombre llegó" (1Cor 2,9). Santa Teresa de Jesús, la gran mística, doctora de la Iglesia y maestra de oración, describiendo el deleite que, en el grado supremo de oración, el mismo Dios concede a quienes con todas sus fuerzas han procurado buscarlo y contentarlo, dice: "Quiere Dios dar al alma el premio en esta vida; y ¡qué gran premio, que basta un momento para quedar pagados todos los trabajos que en ella pueda haber!" (Libro de la Vida, Cap. 18). Esta experiencia de un momento, pero suficiente para recompensar todos los trabajos de esta vida, será eterna en el cielo. Esto es tal vez lo que experimentaron los apóstoles en el monte de la Transfiguración. Por eso ellos querían que no tuviera fin: "¡Es bueno estarnos aquí!". En el II domingo de Cuaresma la liturgia nos propone este episodio para reanimar en nosotros la vida de oración, a la cual se promete tan alto premio. + Felipe Bacarreza Rodríguez Obispo Auxiliar de Los Angeles (Chile) Para poder participar plenamente de la Gloria de Dios, la iglesia propone dos momentos especiales al año que nos ayudan a acercarnos de forma definitiva al Sacramento de la Reconciliación. EL SERVICIO DE RECONCILIACIÓN COMUNAL BILINGÜE EN LA IGLESIA DE SAN JOSÉ SERÁ EL MARTES 5 DE MARZO A LAS 7 PM. No dejen pasar esta oportunidad de venir en familia a recibir la sanación del alma mediante el Sacramento de la Reconciliación y a prepararnos para la Pascua. 13 SECOND SUNDAY OF LENT 14 SEGUNDO DOMINGO DE CUARESMA MEDICAL ALARM PROTECTING CATHOLIC SENIORS NATIONWIDE $19.95*/Mo. - Holiday Special Toll Free: 1-877-801-8608 ✓ 25+ Yrs. in Business ✓ Lifetime Warranty ✓ Made in the USA ✓ Dr. Recommended ✂ Please Cut Out This “Thank You Ad” and Present It The Next Time You Patronize One of Our Advertisers ✓ Monitored in the USA ✓ Price Guarantee ✓ A+ Rated with BBB ✓ Tax Deductible* ✓ Waterproof Button *First three months only *Check with your accountant Thank you for advertising in our church bulletin.
