From the Pastor’s Desk

Del Escritorio del Pastor

Dear parishioners and friends: In our country, last week, we witnessed the

inauguration of President Trump and people from

around the world tuned in and listened to his Inaugural

Address. I t is the speech that sets the tone for every

newly elected President. The speech represents an

outline of the plans and goals for the new

administration. In our Gospel this weekend from St.

Matthew, we hear the Inaugural Address of Our Lord

Jesus as he begins his public ministry. Jesus teaches

us the Beatitudes, and like the President’s speech, this

too sets the tone for the teachings and priorities of

Jesus. Our Lord turns the values of the world upside

down. The world praises the powerful, the wealthy,

and the proud, while Our Lord calls blessed the meek,

the poor, and the humble. On a Christian Website

called The Guided Light, I found a modern-day version

of the Beatitudes. I thought this would be helpful to

you as you think and pray about how the Beatitudes

can become real in your life.

A Modern-Day Version of the Beatitudes

You’re blessed when you hit rock bottom, because

then you can rely on God to go to work for you.

You’re blessed when you mourn. That means you

feel compassion and empathy for others. You begin

to understand that we are all one.

You’re blessed when you are humble and authentic.

That is worth way more than fleeting power and

material possessions.

You’re blessed when you hunger and thirst after

spiritual things instead of worldly things. You will

feel full instead of empty.

You’re blessed when you express kindness. You

will receive kindness in return.

You’re blessed when you allow God’s presence and

goodness to fill your mind, heart and soul. Then

you will see God in the outside world.

You are blessed if you live in peace and create

peace. Then you will understand what it means to

be a child of God. You are fulfilling God’s dream

for world peace.

You’re blessed when people make fun of you or

ridicule you for my sake. That means you struck a

nerve. Well done! Many of my followers have

experienced this. You are in good company.

You’re blessed if you are persecuted because of

your relationship with God. God knows and sees

everything. God will reward you for your

faithfulness.

I pray that the Beatitudes of Jesus, the road map to

spiritual happiness, will guide your heart this weekend and

always.

God Bless you and your Families, Fr. Vince

Queridos feligreses y amigos: En nuestro país, la semana pasada, fuimos testigos de la

inauguración del Presidente Trump y personas de todo el mundo

sintonizaron y escucharon su discurso inaugural. Es el discurso

que marca el tono para cada nuevo presidente electo. El discurso

representa un esquema de los planes y metas para la nueva

administración. En nuestro Evangelio, este fin de semana, de San

Mateo, escuchamos el discurso inaugural de Nuestro Señor Jesús

cuando comienza su ministerio público. Jesús nos enseña las

Bienaventuranzas, y al igual que el discurso del Presidente, esto

también establece el tono para las enseñanzas y prioridades de

Jesús. Nuestro Señor vuelve los valores del mundo al revés. El

mundo alaba a los poderosos, ricos y orgullosos, mientras que

Nuestro Señor llama bendecidos a los mansos, a los pobres y a

los humildes. En un sitio web cristiano llamado “The Guided

Light”, encontré una versión moderna de las Bienaventuranzas.

Pensé que esto sería útil para usted mientras piensa y ora acerca

de cómo las Bienaventuranzas pueden llegar a ser reales en su

vida.

Una Versión Moderna de las Bienaventuranzas:

Usted es bendecido cuando se encuentra en la peor situación

posible, porque entonces usted puede confiar en Dios quien

lo auxiliará.

Eres bendecido cuando lloras. Eso significa que usted siente

compasión y empatía por los demás. Usted comienza a

entender que todos somos uno.

Usted es bendecido cuando usted es humilde y auténtico.

Eso vale mucho más que el poder fugaz y posesiones

materiales.

Ustedes son bendecidos cuando tienen hambre y sed de

cosas espirituales en lugar de cosas mundanas. Se sentirá

lleno en lugar de vacío.

Eres bendecido cuando expresas bondad. Usted recibirá

amabilidad a cambio.

Ustedes son bendecidos cuando permiten que la presencia y

la bondad de Dios llenen su mente, corazón y alma.

Entonces verán a Dios en el mundo exterior.

Ustedes son bendecidos si viven en paz y crean paz.

Entonces entenderán lo que significa ser hijos de Dios. Están

cumpliendo el sueño de Dios por la paz mundial.

Eres bendecido cuando la gente se burla de ti o te ridiculiza

por mi bien. Eso significa que golpeaste un nervio. ¡Bien

hecho! Muchos de mis seguidores han experimentado esto.

Estás en buena compañía.

Ustedes son bendecidos si son perseguidos por su relación

con Dios. Dios lo sabe y lo ve todo. Dios te recompensará

por tu fidelidad.

Oro para que las Bienaventuranzas de Jesús, el camino hacia la

felicidad espiritual, guíen su corazón este fin de semana

y siempre.

Que Dios te bendiga a ti y a tu familia, Padre Vicente

Stewardship Humility

“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom

of heaven.” Matthew 5:3

This one confuses even Stewards. Replace the word “humble”

for “poor” and it makes more sense. People that are humble

recognize their dependence on God and trust that He will provide

all that they need. Unfortunately, for many of us, pride and ego

enters our lives and we think we can live without God.

Remember – God first in all circumstances.

interested in serving the parish in this capacity. The first

informational meeting is scheduled for Tuesday,

Feb. 7, 2017, 7:00 p.m. at Our Lady of Grace Chapel on

and guidelines and by-laws are adopted, we will initiate

a series of parish meetings to gather information from

you and start the process of formulating a pastoral plan.

If you are interested in serving on the Pastoral Council

please attend this important meeting.

Thank you, Father Vince

The Heart of Mary: the Birthplace

of the Civilization of Love

The Legion of Mary dwells at the heart of the Marian Movement in

this country and in nations all over the world. Mary's love and

devotion to her Divine Son and to all of us as her daughters and

sons are the gifts that personify her place as our ultimate mother.

Help our Legion of Mary praesidium, Mother of Perpetual Help,

carry her gifts of love to all those who are lost or despairing by

becoming Active or Auxiliary (praying) members.

Because our Blessed Mother is the gateway to Jesus as our

intercessor and advocate, our praesidium offers two beautiful

pilgrim statues of Our Lady that can be brought into your homes for

veneration and special Novenas to request favors, or thanksgiving

for favors received.

To inquire about membership or having a pilgrim statue in

your home for two weeks at a time, please call Stephanie Greco

(856-346-1086) or Marge McShane (856-784-2435).

God’s Love in Action

God never intended for us to go through

difficulties alone. That is why God has brought us

together as a congregation and why we have

Stephen Ministry.

To learn how you, or a friend, neighbor, coworker or

relative can receive care, please contact:
