SANCTUARY CANDLE

the following intentions:

During Jesus’ ministry “he cured
many who were sick with various
diseases, and he drove out many
demons.” This is the case in today’s
Gospel. Jesus fulfills the vision of
Psalm 147: “He heals the brokenhearted and binds up
their wounds.”
Jesus knew, however, that he couldn’t possibly heal
all the illness in the world. No matter how many people
he cured or how many hours he ministered, there
always would be more suffering people like Job who
craved his healing touch. His primary mission was not
to rid the world of all suffering. His “purpose” was to
preach the coming of the reign of God that heals, yes,
but ultimately transcends and transforms earthly
suffering. With Paul, Jesus could have said, “Woe to
me if I do not preach” that good news.
Ashes will be distributed during all of the Masses on
Wednesday, February 18, 2015. The Masses will be held at
7:30 a.m., 12:15 p.m., 5:30 p.m., and 7:00 p.m. (OLPH
Novena: Prayers in private.)
Confessions will be held at 11:45 a.m. and 5:00 p.m.
Stations of the Cross: During Lent, we invite you to join us
each day at 11:55 a.m. in the Shrine as we pray the Stations
of the Cross.
REMEMBER THE SICK OF THE PARISH
In your prayers, please keep in mind our sick,
homebound, and those in healthcare facilities including:
Mary Andora, Luz Betancourt, Baby Clark, Kathleen
Clark, Lew Clark, Gary Coch, Andres Colmines, Jr.
Susan Cuevas, Edward Dybcz, Katheleen Giampietro,
Luis Graulau, Pedro Graulau, Norman Greenberg,
Catalino Guzman, Jr., Sr. Ann L. Impink, Renee Kearns,
James Kernan, Nino Kin, Shannon Magbalon, Lisa
Marrero, Frank McCool, Gail McNamee, Antonio
Ramirez, Mike Rosin, Nilda Saraza, Karen Schwab &
Joe Sullivan. Please call the rectory office to add a
name to the list.
BEQUESTS
One of the simplest and most common ways of making a
planned gift is through a will or a living trust. A bequest in
a will can take the form of a fixed dollar amount, a specific
asset, a percentage of an estate, a trust, or the naming of a
charitable organization such as the Shrine of St. John
Neumann as a beneficiary. Leaving a gift in your will is a
very special act of generosity and foresight. If you would
like to remember the Shrine of St. John Neumann in your
will, please consult with your attorney.

~Reflection~
THE KING’S MEN
The King’s Men mission is to unite
and build up men as true leaders,
protectors, and providers. This is
achieved through weekly formation
and accountability groups, dynamic
outdoor experiential retreat programs,
and a call to action effort, which
enables men to engage the cultural
and social climate with authentic
apostolic zeal. The King’s Men’s
groups are the true heartbeat of this
lay apostolate. The goal of these
groups is to challenge men to grow in
their Catholic faith and in their
vocations as single men, husbands,
fathers, brothers, and sons. This is
fulfilled through prayer, reading,
discussion of great books, and the
King’s Men’s 4 Cs: Commit, Confess,
Challenge, and Confirm.

“I shall not see happiness again.”
With these words, Job concludes
his lament to the Lord. Job was
obviously in the depths of despair.
His words echo the way we can
feel when we allow life’s struggles
and disappointments to take hold
of us. The Lord Jesus, however,
has something else in mind for us.
The simple story in Mark’s Gospel
of the curing of Peter’s mother-inlaw shows us that the Lord wants
to lift us up out of any despair that
has set in. The Gospel is good
news for us. If today is a day when
we are feeling particularly
burdened
by
illness
or
disappointment, let us, like the
townspeople in today’s Gospel
story, bring our cares and gather
them at the Lord’s door. With
hope, let us be attentive to the
saving power of God’s sacred
word.

Durante su ministerio,
Jesús “curó a muchos enfermos
de diversos males y expulsó a
muchos demonios”. Así es el
caso en el Evangelio de hoy.
Jesús cumple la visión del Salmo
147: “Él sana los corazones destrozados y venda sus
heridas.”
Jesús sabía, sin embargo, que nunca podría sanar
todas las enfermedades del mundo. Por mucha gente
que curara o muchas horas que dedicara al ministerio,
siempre habría más personas afligidas como Job,
ansiosos de su toque sanador. Su misión principal no
era la de erradicar todo sufrimiento del mundo. Su
“obligación” era predicar la venida del Reino de Dios
que sana, sí, pero en último caso, trasciende y
transforma todo sufrimiento humano. Con Pablo, Jesús
pudiera decir, “Ay de mí si no anuncio” esa Buena
Nueva.
†Mary Ellen Bradley
Las cenizas se distribuirán durante todas las Misas el

LEGADOS
Una de las maneras más simples y más común de hacer
una donación planificada es a través de un testamento o
un fideicomiso. Un legado en un testamento que puede
tomar la forma de una cantidad fija, un activo específico,
un porcentaje de un patrimonio, un fideicomiso, o el
nombramiento de una organización de caridad, como el
Santuario de San Juan Neumann como beneficiario.
Dejando un regalo en su testamento es un acto muy
especial de generosidad y visión del futuro. Si usted
desea recordar al Santuario de San Juan Neumann en su
testamento, por favor consulte a su abogado.
CIRCULO DE ORACIÓN CARISMÁTICO
¿Deseas orar con los hermanos? ¿Quieres alabar y
glorificar al Señor? Te invitamos al Círculo de Oración
carismático. Ven a darle honra y gloria al Señor. Ven a
conocer el gozo y el amor del Señor a través de la
oración, alabanza, cánticos al Señor, y el compartir de la
Palabra de Dios. Los hermanos en el ministerio te
recibirán con mucho cariño y orarán por tus necesidades.
El círculo de oración se reúne los Domingos a las 7 P.M.
en el salón de reuniones en el sótano del convento.

~Reflexión~
“Mis ojos no volverán a ver la
dicha”.
Con estas palabras Job
concluye su lamento al Señor. Era
obvio que Job estaba profundamente
desesperado. Sus palabras son un eco
de cómo nos sentimos nosotros
cuando dejamos que las luchas y
desilusiones de la vida nos abatan.
Sin embargo, el Señor Jesús tiene
otros planes para nosotros. La
sencilla historia en el Evangelio de
Marcos sobre la curación de la suegra
de Pedro nos demuestra que el Señor
desea
sacarnos
de
cualquier
desesperanza en que estemos
hundidos. El Evangelio es una buena
nueva para nosotros. Si hoy es uno de
esos días en que te sientes
particularmente agobiado por una
enfermedad o una desilusión, igual
que sucedió con la gente del pueblo
en la historia del Evangelio de hoy,
pon todas tus preocupaciones a los
pies del Señor. Con esperanza,
pongamos atención al poder salvífico
de la palabra sagrada de Dios.

May the example of the Holy Family,
With the aid of your Holy Spirit,
Guide all families, especially those most troubled,
To be homes of communion and prayer
And to always seek your truth and live in your love.
Que el ejemplo de la Sagrada Familia,
Con la ayuda de tu Espíritu Santo,
Guie a todas las familias, especialmente las mas atribuladas,
A ser casas de comunión y oración
Y a buscar siempre tu verdad y vivir en tu amor.
Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Por Cristo nuestro Señor. Amen.
