LENT & LENTEN REGULATIONS
Lent is a Liturgical Season filled with deep meaning and great richness for we whochoose to journey along with Christ on this holy path of spiritual renewal.
1. Abstinence from meats is to be observed by all Catholics 14years old and older on Ash Wednesday and on all Fridays of Lent.
2. Fasting is to be observed on Ash Wednesday by all Catholics whoare 18 years of age but not yet 59.
3. The special Paschal Fast and Abstinence are prescribed for GoodFriday and encouraged for Holy Saturday.
4. On these two days of fast and abstinence, only one full meat-less meal is allowed. Two other meatless meals, sufficient to main-tain strength, may be taken according to each ones needs, but to-gether they should not equal another full meal. Eating betweenmeals is not permitted on these two days, but liquids, including milkand fruit juices are allowed. When health or ability to work would beseriously affected, the law does not oblige.
5. Lent is the Principal Season of Penance in the Christian year. All of the faithful arestrongly urged to develop and follow a program ofvoluntary self-denial(in addition to followingthe Lenten regulations), serious prayer, and a performance of works of charity and mercy. Bythe threefold discipline of fasting, almsgiving and prayer the Church keeps Lent from AshWednesday until the evening of Holy Thursday. All of the faithful and the catechumens should un-dertake serious practice of these three traditions. Failure to observe any penitential days at all ora substantial number of such days or the law of fast and abstinence must be considered serious.
In the Roman Catholic Church, Lent officially ends at sundown on the 28th of March, (HolyThursday), with the beginning of the Mass of the Lords Supper (the beginning of the

LA CUARESMA Y LOS REGULACIONES CUARESMALES
La Cuaresma una tiempo litrgico lleno del significado profundo y de la gran riquezapara los que elijan viajar junto con Cristo en este camino santo de la renovacin espiritual.
1. La Abstinencia de carne debe ser observada por todos los catlicos de 14 aos de edad el
Mircoles de Ceniza y todos los viernes de la Cuaresma.2. El Ayuno debe ser observado el Mircoles de Ceniza por todos los catlicos que tienen 18

Las otras dos comidas sin carne, suficientes para mantener la fuerza, pueden tomarse deacuerdo a las necesidades de cada uno, pero juntas no deben igualar otra comida completa. Acomer entre comidas no es permitido en estos dos das, pero los lquidos, incluyendo leche
Easter Triduum - a three day long feast of Gods Love).
Lent is a forty-day period before Easter. It begins on Ash Wednesday. In some ways Sun-days are different, because Sundays also commemorate the Resurrection, as well as prepare usfor the Sacraments of Initiation and Holy Week. Lent begins this year on the 13th of Februaryand ends on the 30th of March 2013, with the Easter Vigil.
The decorations and vestments are Violet (Rose on Laetare Sunday, the 4th Sunday ofLent and Red for the Passion).
Lent is a season of soul-searching and repentance. It is a season for reflection and takingstock. Lent originated in the very earliest days of the Church as a preparatory time for Easter,when the faithful rededicated themselves in the faith and when catechumens were instructedin the faith and prepared for baptism. By observing the forty days of Lent, the individual Chris-tian imitates Jesus withdrawal into the wilderness for forty days.
There are three basic parts of the Season of Lent.
The first two and a half weeks, starting with Ash Wednesday, the First and second Sundaysof Lent until just before the third Sunday of Lent, were traditionally called the time of theOrder of the Penitent. It was a tradition at the beginning of Lent to go to Confession in
order to be closer to our Lord as the Season of Lent progressed and to set a good example tothose preparing for the Easter Sacraments.
The second two weeks plus - focus on those in the Catechumenate and their preparation forBaptism, Confirmation and First Eucharist. This period of Lent is called the Order of theCatechumenate and includes the Third, Fourth and Fifth Sundays of Lent, and the celebrationof the Scrutinys during Sunday Mass.
The last period of Lent begins technically on the Fifth Sunday of Lent (although the RCIA ritu-als take a stronger presence on this day) is called Passiontide and the focus of Lent now turnstoward a more intense remembering of finale leading up to the death of our Lord. Before therestoration of the Catechumenate with Vatican II, for many centuries the Fifth Sunday of Lent,the Passion of the Lord according to Matthew was read. These readings are now moved to Palm
Sunday, the season culminating just before the beginning of the Mass of the Lords Supper.
In Lent it is important to receive to the Sacrament of Reconciliation.
Reflection: The Fasts of the Rich are the Feasts of the Poor!

y jugos de frutas estn permitidas. Cuando la salud o la capacidad para trabajar se veran seria-mente afectadas, la ley no obliga.
5. La Cuaresma es la temporada principal de penitencia en el ao Cristiano. Todos los fieles estnexhortados fuertemente para desarrollar y para seguir un programa del abnegacin voluntario(adems de seguir las regulaciones de la Cuaresma), oracin seria, y una participacin en losobras de caridad y de misericordia. Por la triple disciplina del ayuno, la limosna y la oracin, laIglesia mantiene la Cuaresma desde el Mircoles de Ceniza hasta la tarde del Jueves Santo. Todoslos fieles y los catecmenos deben emprender la prctica seria de estas tres tradiciones. El incum-plimiento de cualquiera de los das de penitencia a todos o un nmero sustancial de dichos das ode la ley del ayuno y la abstinencia debe ser considerada grave.
En la Iglesia Catlica Romana, oficialmente la Cuaresma termina con la puesta del sol el 21 deabril (Jueves Santo), con el principio de la Ultima Cena del Seor (el principio del Triduo Pascual -una fiesta de tres da del Amor de Dios).
La Cuaresma un perodo de cuarenta das antes de la Pascua. Comienza el Mircoles de Ceniza.Aun de cierto modo los domingos son diferentes cuando contamos los cuarenta das, porque los do-mingos conmemoran la Resurreccin. La cuaresma comienza este ao en el 13 de febrero y terminael 30 de Marzo de 2013, con la Vigilia Pascual.
En la mayora de las iglesias, las decoraciones son Violeta, (Rosa para el 4 domingo de la
Cuaresma Rojo-Pasin).
La Cuaresma es un tiempo de buscar el alma y el arrepentimiento. Es un tiempo para la re-flexin y para hacer un balance. La Cuaresma originada en los primeros das de la Iglesia era como untiempo preparatorio para Pascua, cuando los fieles se dedicaron otra vez a la fe y cuando los ca-tecmenos fueron instruidos en la fe y preparados para el bautismo. Observando los cuarenta dasde la Cuaresma, el Cristiano individualmente imita el retiro de Jess en el desierto por cuarenta das.
Hay tres partes bsicas del tiempo de la Cuaresma.
Las primeras dos y media semanas, comenzando con el Mircoles de Ceniza, le primer y segundo do-mingos de la Cuaresma hasta momentos antes del tercero domingo de la Cuaresma, tradicionalmentefueron llamados el tiempo de la Orden del Penitente. Era una tradicin al principio de la Cuaresma
a ir a la Confesinpara estar ms cercano a nuestro Seor mientras el Tiempo de la Cuaresma lle-gaba y para poner un buen ejemplo a los que se preparaban para los Sacramentos de la Pascua.
Las segundas dos semanas y ms se enfocaban en aquellos en el Catecmeno y a su prepara-cin para el Bautismo, la Confirmacin y la Primer Eucarista. Este perodo de la Cuaresma se lla-ma el Orden del Catecmeno e incluye el tercero, cuarto yquinto domingos de la Cuaresma, y la celebracin de los Escrutiniosdurante la Misa dominical.
El ltimo perodo de la Cuaresma comienza tcnicamente elquinto domingo (aunque los rituales de RICA toman una presenciams fuerte en este da). Se llama el Tiempo de la Pasin y elcentro de la Cuaresma ahora va hacia la recordacin ms intensa
del fin que conduce a la muerte de Nuestro Seor. Antes de larestauracin del Catecumenado del Vaticano II, por muchos siglos elquinto domingo de Cuaresma, la Pasin del Seor segn San Mateoera leda. Estas lecturas ahora se mueven al Domingo de Ramos ycrean un poquito de trfico litrgico, el tiempo que culmina mo-mentos antes del principio de la Misa de la Cena del Seor.
En la Cuaresma una buena accin para reflexionares intentar ir al Sacramento de la Reconciliacin.
Reflexin: "Los Ayunos de los Ricos son las Fiestas de los Pobres!"

As we conclude our 2012 Catholic Ministries Annual Appeal, I am verygrateful for your generosity. Our 2012 goal was $92,438 and we hadnet gifts of $86,405. Even thought we fell short of our goal, your will-ingness to support the CMAA shows that you recognize the importanceof supporting the larger church. Thank you again for supporting theCMAA.
Catholic Ministries Annual Appeal - 2013
Please Make a Generous Gift
This week you are asked to review the Annual Appeal tabloidthat you will receive with your bulletin today. The Annual Ap-peal campaign is much different than a one-time, special collec-tion. It is a pledge campaign where you can make a gift payableover 10 months.
A significant gift to the Catholic Ministries Annual Appeal willtouch the lives of many others in a very positive way. The AnnualAppeal provides a significant portion of the budget of the Dioceseof Joliet. Most dioceses in the country conduct an appeal, once ayear, to help with the costs of providing services and programs totheir parishes and people. The Diocese of Joliet is no exception.
As you review the work enabled by your contribution to theCMAA, please reflect on Gods gifts to you. He has given you allthat you have. Your gifts to our parish, to the diocese, and to thework of the church throughout the world should be given in grati-tude for the continuing gifts that God gives you. He never forgets
you.Sometimes it is difficult to envision how one pledge can help anorganization the size of our diocese, how it can make a real dif-ference. But each pledge does make a difference because all par-ishes participate in the campaign, and the gifts of many enableour diocese to deliver needed education, ministry, and services.Our combined gifts not only signify our gratitude to God, theyglorify Him by enabling the work of our diocese.
If you received your pledge form in the mail, please complete itand mail it back or bring it to Mass next weekend. For those of
you who did not receive a mailing or have not had time to re-spond to it, we will conduct our in-pew pledge process at allMasses next weekend.
After our parish exceeds its CMAA goal of $93,147.00 in paidpledges, 50% of any additional funds are returned for use in ourparish.
Thank you for your prayerful consideration and generous re-sponse.

A letter and update from the Alex Novak Family -
Dear St. John the Baptist Parish/School, 7th grade Girls Basketball Team, St. Francis High School, and friends,Thank you for your continued support and prayers for Alex Novak and our family. We wish to express our great apprecia-
tion and gratitude for your fundraising efforts (Winfield Pub Crawl, Kids for Kids Fantasy Football, SJB 7th grade girls basketballteam, dress down days), which have been used to buy ramps to roll Alex into the house, the Hoyer lift that transfers Alex from bed tohis wheelchair, and to cover co-payments for his numerous daily medications and his new wheelchair that was just delivered. Be-cause of his muscle spasms, Alex has not made progress. Last week he finally received Botox injections to alleviate the spasms. TheBotox seems to be helping, so hopefully Alex can start to progress with his physical therapy. We want to thank all who have visitedAlex reading and speaking to him, students that came to sing Christmas carols, and people who have given Alex music CDs which
he listens to daily. Alex is the most responsive on days he has visitors to stimulate him. We especially wish to thank Mike Zierk,President Bednar, Principal Kos, Fr. Tom, SJB & SFHS coaches and teachers for their fundraising efforts, prayers and visits. Futurefundraisers include the K of C Fish Fry on Friday, February 22nd, 5-7:30p at St. Johns, Friday, March 8th, 5:30p-8:30p, a KarateKick-a-thon at the Fitness Station in West Chicago, and Thursday, March28th, a Pub Crawl in Wheaton (organized by Mike Zierk),so come out to have some fun, good food, spirits and help support Alex. We extend our prayers to God and you for your continuedsupport and prayers which help our family make it through one day at a time. If you wish to visit, please call first, 630-293-3964.Our address is: 29W043 Donald Ave., West Chicago (a blue split-level house). Thank you again.God Bless You, Donna, Larry, Raquel & Alex Novak
