TIME

The holidays are well behind us; the year stretches out ahead. And what sort of year will it be? To judge by the words of Jesus in today’s Gospel, it will be “a year acceptable to the Lord.” And Jesus surely didn’t mean only the next three hundred sixty-five days facing his listeners at that time. When Jesus announced the “arrival” of God’s favor, it was a message for all time, for every year. Similarly, we read today in Nehemiah how the people gathered with solemnity to hear God’s word as though for the first time. They listened, and then fell to the ground and wept. But the prophet said, “Today is holy . . . do not be sad, and do not weep.” The “year acceptable to the Lord” is this year. The day that is “holy” is this day. The time to listen is now. What sort of year will you have? What sort of day? God’s help is always here. What you do with each day can be holy and acceptable to the Lord if you but listen to and act on God’s word.

¿UNA FIESTA? ¿PARA CELEBRAR REGLAS? ¿EN SERIO?

La cultura estadounidense del siglo XXI se basa demasiado en breves textos en las redes sociales, Face-book, Twitter, que podría hacernos preguntar cómo los “hombres, mujeres y esos niños con edad suficiente para entender” (Nehemías 8, 2) podrían pasar toda la mañana escuchando al sacerdote Ezra leer el libro judío de la Ley. Regresar a casa después de setenta años en el exilio, las personas tuvieron que reconstruir su tierra natal, la ciudad de Jerusalén, el templo, las estructuras sociales y económicas, todo eso. Escuchar a Esdras leer la antigua ley parece haber reconectado a las personas a las tradicio-nes que les dieron significado a todos sus conflictos. ¡Ellos lloraban lagrimas de alegría!

El salmista es asimismo conmovido por la belleza de la ley de Dios. No es una restricción pesada para el compor-tamiento humano, sino una guía sabia para las personas que buscaban sabiduría y felicidad permanente. Al termino de la lectura, Esdras los instruye para estar alegres, para “comer alimentos exquisitos y beber licores dulces . . . este día ha sido consagrado a nuestro Señor” (Nehemías 8:10). El júbilo es la respuesta apropia-da al redescubrimiento de la ley de Dios.

¡Y TODOS ASISTIERON! Esdras también le dice al pueblo que “manden su

porción a los que no han preparado nada” para asegurarse que todos están incluidos, si es que ellos no tenían nada que compartir. Cuando Jesús leyó un pasaje mucho más pequeño a una asamblea más pequeña en la sinagoga, él anuncia su intención de procurar que nadie sea excluido. El Espíritu del Señor lo está guiando para sanar las aflic-ciones de quienes habitualmente casi son “excluidos” de la sociedad dominante, personas que son pobres, personas que han estado en prisión, personas con discapacidades físicas o mentales. A diferencia de Jesús, no podemos hacer milagros para sanarlos o mitigar sus condiciones; pero como Jesús, podemos trabajar para llevar a estos “exiliados” a una tierra natal donde la ley de Dios asegura que todos pueden alegrarse, porque todos están incluidos.

KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS

Everyone, Last week you enjoyed our monthly Pancake Breakfast. Upcoming on February 9th is our annual Tri-Tip

Dinner. Come join your fellow parishioners for fellowship and a great meal in Gurnell Hall. The $20.00 tickets are available from the Knights or at the Office. From my Knights to Christ booklet for today, January 27, my birthday: “Every evening from my window

I see an assemblage of fishing boats. What an inspiring example to us, who are fishermen of Jesus Christ. We must do as they do – work day and night with our torches lit, each in his own little boat – yet working as a team for the spread of God’s Kingdom on earth.” (Journal of a Soul, November 1939, St. John XXIII.) Thank you,

Marty Soth, Grand Knight

Dear Parishioners,

Here is the financial report of our operations for the first half of the 2018-2019 fiscal year. Going into December, we were at a net loss of $43,059.68 from July to November 2018. Thank you to your generous Christmas donations, the increase in Sunday donations, as well as a des-ignated gift, of $33,333.33, we are now at a net income of $16,145.19 for this fiscal year thus far. Without the designated gift, we would have been at a net loss of $17,188.14. We are very blessed to have started the month of January on a positive note. We appreciate all your generous financial support to continue to fund the work of God and to meet the spiritual needs of our parish community.

LAY CARMELITE INFORMATION MEETING There will be a Lay Carmelite Information Meeting on February 3rd in Room 3 from 1:30-3:00 p.m. “The

desire for God is written in our human heart.” Do you feel drawn to a deeper desire for holiness? Our Catechism of the Catholic Church says, “Humanity is created by God and for God; and God never ceases to draw us to Himself. Only in God will we find truth and the happiness we never stop searching for.” If you have a deeper desire for God and feel called to a deeper relationship with God, perhaps God is calling you to a life of holiness as a Lay Carmelite: prayer, community and service. (Contact Elizabeth Merrill 530-903-6446 or Deborah Didier 530-417-4148 for more information).
