SECOND SUNDAY OF LENT, FEBRUARY 25, 2018
REFLECTION: ` La Transfiguración
La transfiguración de Jesús nos ayuda a seguir caminando en nuestra cuaresma con Jesús hacia Jerusalen para participar en su muerte y resurrección. No tiene nada de extraño que los discípulos no comprendieran su sentido y se preguntaran que significaba “resucitar de entre los muertos.” Estaba claro que no se trataba de una resurrección de un muerto como las que se cuentan en el Antiguo Testamento o las que realizo Jesús. En ellas, mas que resurrección se trataba de una vuelta temporal a la vida para después volver a morir. La resurrección de Jesús, en cambio, significa la intervención definitiva de Dios para salvar a la humanidad.
Jesús resucitado vive para siempre, para nunca más morir y se ha convertido en causa de vida para todos los que creen en El. En esta cuaresma cree en El y será salvo tú y tu casa.
Carmen Gonzalez
POPE’S INTENTION FOR FEBRUARY 2018
Universal: Say “No” to Corruption That those who have material, political or spiritual power may resist any lure of
The days of both Fast and Abstinence during Lent are Ash Wednesday and Good Friday. The other Fridays of Lent are days of Abstinence. On a day of Fast, only one (1) full meal is permitted and two (2) smaller meals, which, if added together, would not ex-ceed the main meal in quantity.. .Those between the ages of 18 and 59 are obliged to fast. On a day of Abstinence, no meat may be eaten. Those who have reached the age of 14 are obliged by the law of abstinence. The obligation to observe the laws of Fast and Abstinence “substantially”, or as a whole, is a serious obligation.
STEWARDSHIP: February 25, 2018 - 2
nd Sunday of Lent “’Here I am!’ he
answered.” - Genesis 22:11. It is easy to say, “Here I am, Lord,” when we are kneeling in church. But how easy is it to say “Here I am, Lord,” when a neighbor needs our help, when we are invited to join a parish ministry, or when we are asked to provide financial support? Often times we are called when it’s not convenient for us. Discipleship is not al-ways easy, most of the time it will make us uncomfortable and vulnerable
25 de febrero de 2018 - 2º domingo de Cuaresma “¡Aquí estoy!,Respondió."GÉNESIS 22:11 Es fácil decir: "Aquí estoy, Señor", cuando estamos arrodilla-dos en la iglesia. Pero ¿qué tan fácil es decir "Aquí estoy, Señor", cuando un vecino necesita nuestra ayuda, cuando nos invitan a unirnos a un ministerio parroquial, o cuando se nos pide que brindemos apoyo financiero? Muchas veces nos llaman cuando no nos conviene. El discipulado no siem-pre es fácil, la mayoría de las veces nos hará sentir incómo-dos y vulnerables.
