STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION FOR THE WEEK OF FEBRUARY 21 / REFLEXIÓN DE LA CORRESPONSABILIDAD PARA LA SEMANA DEL 21 DE FEBREROEach liturgical year on the Second Sunday of Lent our Gospel Reading recounts what we call the Transfiguration of Christ. On the First Sunday (last week) we heard one of the accounts of Jesus’ temptations in the desert. There is a reason we hear this Gospel Word in this order. Last week we were informed of the temptations that await us, especially during this Holy Lenten period.This week the way to overcome these temptations is revealed. The word “transfiguration” comes from the Latin trans, which means “across” and figura, meaning “form” or “shape.” It signifies a change of form or appearance, and this is exactly what happened to Jesus; His appearance changed and became glorious.The description of the Transfiguration occurs in all three Synop-tic Gospels (Matthew, Mark, and Luke). This is a proclamation of the Lord’s divinity. It is intended for all of us. In fact, each of us is invited, just as Peter, James, and John are, to become a part of this experience. We are called to conversion and witness of the truth.That is what Lent should be all about for us. The stewardship message is that we need to strive for conversion, for grasping the hope offered by Christ. St. Thomas Aquinas wrote, “At His Transfiguration Christ showed His disciples the splendor of His beauty, to which He will shape and color those who are His.” Are we His?

Cada año litúrgico en el Segundo Domingo de Cuaresma nuestro Evangelio relata lo que llamamos la Transfiguración de Cristo. El primer domingo (la semana pasada) oímos una de las cuentas tentaciones de Jesús en el desierto. Hay una razón por la que escuchamos esta Palabra del Evangelio en este orden. La semana pasada se nos informó de las tentaciones que nos esperan, espe-cialmente durante este período de la Santa Cuaresma.Esta semana, la manera de superar estas tentaciones se revela. La palabra “transfiguración” viene del latín trans, que significa “a través” y figura, que significa “forma” o significa un cambio de forma o apariencia, y esto es exactamente lo que le pasó a Jesús; Su apariencia cambió y se hizo glorioso.La descripción de la Transfiguración se produce en los tres evan-gelios sinópticos (Mateo, Marcos y Lucas). Este es un anuncio de la divinidad del Señor. Está destinado a todos nosotros. De hecho, se invita a cada uno de nosotros, al igual que a Pedro, Santiago y Juan, para convertirse en una parte de esta experien-cia. Se nos llama a la conversión y el testimonio de la verdad.Eso es lo que la Cuaresma debe ser para todos nosotros. El mensaje de la corresponsabilidad es que tenemos que luchar por la conversión, para agarrar la esperanza ofrecida por Cristo. Santo Tomás de Aquino escribió, “en su transfiguración de Cristo mostró a sus discípulos el esplendor de su belleza, a la que Él dará forma y el color de los que son suyos.” ¿Somos Su?

THE 2ND SUNDAY OF LENT / 2º DOMINGO DE CUARESMA 3

St. Paul wrote in the second reading today that “Our citizenship is in heaven.” He’s pointing out that one day we will be there and will need to live like we belong there. He’s also pointing out that we need to start practicing living like we are citizens from heaven while we are here on earth. In another part of scripture St. Paul calls us ambassadors for Christ. If you are an ambassador for the United States in another country, one of your main responsibilities is to model and live the values of the United States. The same for us. We are ambassadors for Christ here on earth. We are to model and live the values of Christ. One day we will be called home to heaven where our citizenship is, but until then let’s be the best ambassadors here on earth.Thursday Night Confessions: February 25 & March 3; and March 7 is our Lenten Penance ServiceGod bless you all!Fr. JimSan Pablo escribió en la segunda lectura de hoy que “Nuestra ciu-dadanía está en los cielos.” Él está señalando que un día vamos a estar allí y tendremos que vivir como si pertenecemos allí. También está señalando que necesitamos empezar a practicar la vida como si somos ciudadanos del cielo mientras estamos aquí en la tierra.En otra parte de la Escritura San Pablo nos llama embajadores de Cristo. Si usted es un embajador de los Estados Unidos en otro país, una de sus principales responsabilidades es la de mostrar y vivir los valores de los Estados Unidos. Lo mismo para nosotros. Somos em-bajadores de Cristo aquí en la tierra. Estamos para mostrar y vivir los valores de Cristo. Un día se nos llamará al hogar en el cielo, de donde es nuestra ciudadanía, pero hasta entonces vamos a ser los mejores embajadores aquí en la tierra.Jueves Noche de Confesiones: 25 de febrero, 3 de marzo; el 7 de marzo es nuestro Servicio de Penitencia de Cuaresma.Dios los Bendiga a todos!Padre Jim

Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration Update“When we go before the Blessed Sacrament, let us open our heart; our good God will open His. We shall go to Him; He will come to us—the one to ask, the other to receive. It will be like a breath from one to the other.” ~ St. John VianneyAs our parish’s Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration (PEA) Coordina-tor, I am excited to share that our parish’s response to PEA has been nothing short of miraculous! To everyone who signed up to adore and/or to help promote and organize this wonderful opportunity, I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude. Organizers have work-ing hard to ensure that the PEA schedule is full. There is, however, still a need for adorers to come and spend time with Jesus, particu-larly during the night hours, from midnight to 6am.
