BISHOP'S MINISTRY APPEAL: “Moving Forward in Gratitude & Hope: Together As One"
If you missed your opportunity to support the Bishop’s Ministry Appeal, it is not too late. All of us share in the responsibility of sharing with others a portion of God’s Blessing. Please make your pledge to the BMA today. Pledge envelopes and BMA bulletins can be found in the vestibule area of the church and on the BMA page of our website.
Thank you to all those who have pledged their support to the parish and our local Church. To date, we have 398 families that have contributed $125,086. We are on the way to reaching our goal of 600 families and $150,363. We are doing great; however, we need everyone’s participation to be successful. Please keep in mind that there are many Diocesan ministries that serve our parishioners. This is our once-a-year opportunity to show the Diocese our support.
This year the amount set by the diocese for our parish is $150,363. We could reach this goal if 600 families donate $250 for the year (about $30 per month from February-October). If we do not meet the goal, we will have to make up the difference by using the money from our regular offertory though it is budgeted for parish expenses.
Please prayerfully plan to participate! Investing in the BMA means investing in the future of the Church!
To learn more about the BMA and how your support benefits the parishes and schools in our diocese, please click here.

Grow your faith
Liturgy of the week
OUR PARISH -11th Sunday in Ordinary Time / 11° Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario
As I, the Lord, have spoken, so will I do. - Ezekiel 17:24
. . . to proclaim your kindness at dawn and your faithfulness throughout the night. - Psalm 92:3
. . . for we walk by faith, not by sight. - 2 Corinthians 5:7
[The kingdom of God] is like a mustard seed that, when it is sown in the ground, is the smallest of all the seeds on the [E]arth. But once it is sown, it springs up and becomes the largest of plants and puts forth large branches, so that the birds of the sky can dwell in its shade. - Mark 4:31-32
When God speaks, things happen: the cosmos is created, lepers are healed, the dead are raised. When we speak, what happens? Are our words for good or evil? Are they creative or destructive? Do our words help build the kingdom?
The kingdom of God is not static. It is “already and not yet.” The kingdom of God is in our midst, but it is not yet complete. By God’s grace we help build the kingdom. Every time we show kindness, exhibit patience, forgive another, we are, in essence, loving God and others. May our words and deeds, like ripples in a pond, spread out to all the world and so further the kingdom of God.

Décimo Primer Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario
"Yo, Yahveh, he hablado y lo haré." - Ezequiel, 17 - Bíblia Católica Online
. . . "3.publicar tu amor por la mañana, y tu lealtad por las noches," - Salmos, 92 - Bíblia Católica Online
. . . "pues caminamos en la fe y no en la visión..." - II Corintios, 5 - Bíblia Católica Online
"Es como un grano de mostaza que, cuando se siembra en la tierra, es más pequeña que cualquier semilla que se siembra en la tierra; 32.pero una vez sembrada, crece y se hace mayor que todas las hortalizas y echa ramas tan grandes que las aves del cielo anidan a su sombra.»" - Marcos, 4 - Bíblia Católica Online
Cuando Dios habla, suceden cosas: se crea el cosmos, se curan los leprosos, se resucitan los muertos. Cuando hablamos, ¿qué pasa? ¿Nuestras palabras son para bien o para mal? ¿Crean o destruyen? ¿Nuestras palabras ayudan a construir el reino?
El reino de Dios no es estático. "Ahí está y aún no se termina". El reino de Dios está entre nosotros, pero aún no está completo. Por la gracia de Dios ayudamos a construir el reino. Cada vez que mostramos bondad, paciencia, perdonamos a otro, estamos, en esencia, amando a Dios y a los demás. Que nuestras palabras y hechos, como ondas en un estanque, se extiendan por todo el mundo y así promuevan el reino de Dios.

FR. MARK'S REFLECTIONS AND ARTICLES / REFLEXIONES Y ARTÍCULOS DEL P. MARK
FR. MARK'S REFLECTIONS AND ARTICLES / REFLEXIONES Y ARTÍCULOS DEL P. MARK
GOSPEL MEDITATION
A favorite motto of St. Teresa of Calcutta was, “do small things with great love.” This is how it works in the kingdom of God. God can do tremendous things with the smallest gesture, especially when it is done in love. We can clearly see that our world is suffering greatly. People are struggling to find peace, navigate through conflicts, earn a sustainable living, find security and enough food to eat, and work through political tensions and conflicts. In the light of the magnitude of the difficulties that exist around us and even within us, we can find ourselves floundering to discover practical, effective solutions. How can something so large be helped by someone as small and seemingly insignificant as me? While whole systems and structures may be out of the league of our personal influence, are we really that helpless in the midst of all of the turmoil, sadness, and suffering?
If we believe that God is with us and that God is still working to bring about the glory of God’s kingdom, then the answer is no. We are never helpless or without hope. Armed with a strong life of prayer, we can always flee to God and ask for inspiration, wisdom, and especially love. We are all blessed with unique gifts and talents and it often seems that considering all that the world lacks, love and charity remain at the top of the list. Life can easily become a battleground of hostility. Because life is challenging and difficult, anger is not far away. We see it on people’s faces and hear it in their voices. There is a measure of frustration that permeates all avenues of life. It is even felt in the air.
As people of faith, we know that what we see here is not the end but only a part of something far greater to come. We know that God’s kingdom is where we are ultimately meant to be, and the Gospel is the way to get there. If love and charity can prevail in us, then God will be able to do what God does best. God will use us to scatter the seeds of his kingdom. Through our small gestures, those seeds can receive the nurturing attention that is necessary for them to bear great fruit. We cannot fall victim to the strife that is around us. We have to keep ourselves refreshed and focused so that even in small ways, we can become part of the solution, not the problem. Love and charity, which come from God, can help to heal the ills of the world. May we bring these simple gifts to the everyday simple tasks of our lives! Watch how big the plant grows!

MEDITACIÓN EVANGÉLICO
Todavía con sabor a Fiesta del Cuerpo y Sangre de Cristo del pasado domingo en nuestros corazones. Ahora, debemos de preparar la mente y corazón para iniciar el Tiempo Ordinario. Esto significa que, el Evangelio de Marcos, nuevamente nos lleva por el camino del Reino, a preparar la tierra para que la semilla crezca por si sola y de fruto. “Jesús dijo además: ‘Escuchen esta comparación del Reino de Dios. Un hombre esparce la semilla en la tierra, y ya duerma o esté despierto, sea de noche o de día, la semilla brota y crece, sin que él sepa cómo’” (Marcos 4:26-27).
Aquí, claramente se trata de ver la confianza que Dios ha depositado en el crecimiento de cada uno. Dios comienza, poniendo su semilla, y la persona responde. Todo, despacio, llegará a su tiempo. Sin quemar etapas, los resultados aparecen cuando el Espíritu de Dios está listo en la persona. “La tierra da fruto por si misma: primero la hierba, luego la espiga, y por último la espiga se llena de granos. Y cuando el grano está maduro, se le mete la hoz, pues ha llegado el tiempo de la cosecha” (Marcos 4:28-29). Muchas veces hay desesperanza por no ver resultados rápidos y convincentes. Tal pareciera que el mal vence en el mundo. Sin embargo, no es así; Dios, da comienzo a su obra de santidad con humildad. Saber esperar con paciencia, pero en actividad, es de sabios y de santos. La semilla crece, y la persona lo sabe al sentirse segura y lista para andar por los caminos de Dios. Reto de este domingo: Dejar que el grano de mostaza crezca en mi vida y de fruto en abundancia.

FR. MARK'S REFLECTIONS AND ARTICLES / REFLEXIONES Y ARTÍCULOS DEL P. MARK
|
A message from Fr. Mark:
Happy Feast of St. Andre Bessette! January 6 is the anniversary of the death of “Frere Andre”, the miracle-worker of Montreal. When he died in 1937, approximately one million people came to his funeral services because he was famous for curing sick people. He would pray to St. Joseph, and many thousands of people were cured during his lifetime as well as after his death. Pope Francis has declared this year 2021 to be the year of St. Joseph, who is the most powerful saint in heaven! Let us be like St. Andre Bessette and try to increase our love for St. Joseph, so that he will help us love Our Lord and Our Lady as he did! I have written an article on St. Andre Bessette and St. Joseph. To read it, please click here. Fr. Mark Wagner To read Fr. Mark's articles, please click on the links below.

The USCCB created a short reflection on the 2020-2021 Respect Life theme, “Live the Gospel of Life.” It explores how Jesus becoming man and redeeming us through his humanity reveals the dignity of all human life and how the Gospel of life is therefore essential to our identity as followers of Christ.

“Our Lady showed us a great sea of fire which seemed to be under the earth. Plunged in this fire were demons and souls in human form.... ”
(Lúcia dos Santos, Visionary of Fátima)
The terrifying and horrific vision of hell, which the Shepherd Children witnessed, “lasted but an instant.” Lúcia tells us: “We looked up at Our Lady, who said to us, so kindly and so sadly: ‘You have seen hell where the souls of poor sinners go. When you pray the Rosary, say after each mystery: O my Jesus, forgive us, save us from the fire of hell. Lead all souls to heaven, especially those who are most in need.’”
Our Lady instructed the Little Shepherds: “Sacrifice yourselves for sinners, and say many times, especially whenever you make some sacrifice: ‘O Jesus, it is for love of You, for the conversion of sinners, and in reparation for the sins committed against the Immaculate Heart of Mary.’”

CONFESSIONS/CONFESIONES
Confessions will be available Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 5:00 PM and Saturday at 8:30 AM in front of the church.
“Peace be with you!” With these words, the Risen Lord greeted his frightened Apostles in the Upper Room on the day of his Resurrection. They were troubled, anxious, and fearful—much like each one of us at some point in our lives. Christ repeated the words, “Peace be with you.” But then he added, Receive the holy Spirit. Whose sins you forgive are forgiven them” (Jn 20:19-23).
For your protection and the protection of our priests and everyone around you, please wear a mask and maintain safe social distancing of at least six (6) feet.

“¡La paz esté con ustedes!” Con estas palabras el Señor Resucitado saludó a sus asustados Apóstoles en el Cenáculo el día de su Resurrección. Estaban confundidos, ansiosos y temerosos, muy parecido a como nos sentimos nosotros en algún momento de nuestras vidas. Cristo repitió estas palabras, “La paz esté con ustedes.” Pero entonces añadió, “Reciban el Espíritu Santo. A quienes ustedes perdonen los pecados, queden perdonados” (Jn 20:19-23).
Para su protección y la protección de nuestros sacerdotes y de todos los que lo rodean, use un máscara y mantenga un distanciamiento social seguro de al menos seis (6) pies.

AN ACT OF SPIRITUAL COMMUNION
My Jesus, I believe that You are in the Blessed Sacrament. I love You above all things, and I long for You in my soul. Since I cannot now receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. As though You have already come, I embrace You and unite myself entirely to You; never permit me to be separated from You. (Partial indulgence)
A PRAYER FOR PROTECTION IN TIME OF PANDEMIC
Please pray this prayer daily for an end to the Covid-19 pandemic.
O Mary, you always brighten our path as a sign of salvation and of hope. We entrust ourselves to you, Health of the Sick, who, at the Cross, took part in Jesus’ pain while remaining steadfast in faith. O loving Mother, you know what we need, and we are confident you will provide for us as at Cana in Galilee. Intercede for us with your Son Jesus, the Divine Physician, for those who have fallen ill, for those who are vulnerable, and for those who have died. Intercede also for those charged with protecting the health and safety of others and for those who are tending to the sick and seeking a cure. Help us, O Mother of Divine Love, to conform to the will of the Father and to do as we are told by Jesus, who took upon himself our sufferings and carried our sorrows, so as to lead us, through the Cross, to the glory of the Resurrection.
Amen.
Under thy protection we seek refuge, O Holy Mother of God. In our needs, despise not our petitions, but deliver us always from all dangers, O glorious and blessed Virgin. Amen.
