Today’s readings are a nice shorthand catechism of what our baptized lives mean. As Noah passed through the waters of the flood to a covenant with God, so did we enter into a covenant, a promised relationship with God through our baptism. The psalm reminds us that if we truly keep the covenant, the way of life God expects us to follow will not be a burden, but a source of love and truth. Peter’s letter gives one explanation of what our baptism means: it is an appeal that we make to God for a clear conscience. How do we obtain this clear conscience? The words that Jesus proclaims immediately following his temptation show us the way: “Repent and believe in the gospel.” It might be a good spiritual exercise to keep these readings before us throughout the entire season of Lent, a means to help us return to a life lived in our baptismal promises. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co. Today’s Readings First Reading — I will set my bow in the clouds to serve as a sign of the covenant between me and the earth (Genesis 9:8-15). Psalm — Your ways, O Lord, are love and truth to those who keep your covenant (Psalm 25). Second Reading — The water of the flood prefigured baptism, which saves you now (1 Peter 3:18-22). Gospel — Jesus was tempted by Satan, and the angels ministered to him (Mark 1:12-15) The English translation of the Psalm Responses from Lectionary for Mass © 1969, 1981, 1997, International Commission on English in the Liturgy Corporation.

It is an international spelling bee competition held annually for boys and girls in 5th - 10th grades, which consists of four levels of competition: Council, District, Regional and State. John’s journey actually began in October 2014, spending countless hours studying word lists in preparation for the spelling bee. John’s preparation served him well as he won the local and the District/Regional competitions. After winning at the regional level, John became eligible for the state spelling bee competition. John Voight The competition was intense and mentally grueling. It took 98 words to determine a winner in his grade level category. Unfortunately John did not win or place. Despite this, he did a great job representing us in the competition. He made us proud. b Thank you John for a job well done. The Knights of Columbus Holy Spirit 6032 congratulate you and your family for competing in the spelling bee competitions. MICHAEL E. THOMAS Deputy Grand Knight Holy Spirit 6032 St Bart’s Students are Keeping Lent Holy 22 Fevrier, 2015 - Premier Dimanche de Carême - Année B Siyifikasyon batèm NOU Karèm se epòk nan ane a ke nou konsakre a egzaminen lavi nou nan limyè batèm nou te resevwa nan lanmò ak rezirèksyon Jezi. Lekti jodi a se yon bèl leson katechèz sou sa lavi batize nou an vle di. Menm jan Noe te pase nan mitan gwo inondasyon an pou li rantre nan yon alyans avèk Bondye, se konsa tou nou menm nou antre nan yon kontra, yon relasyon ak Bondye ke li te pwomèt nou jou batèm nou. Sòm jodia fè nou sonje ke si nou vrèman kenbe kontra a, fason Bondye ta renmen nou viv la pap yon chay pou nou, men yon sous renmen ak verite. Lèt Pyè a bay yon eksplikasyon sou sa batèm nou an vle di: li se yon demand ke nou fè oprè Bondye pou li ba nou yon konsyans ki klè. Ki jan pou nou genyen konsyans klè sa a? Mo sa yo ke Jezi pwoklame imedyatman apre tantasyon l nan dezè a montre nou ki wout pou nou swiv: “Repanti e kwè nan levanjil la”. Li tap yon bon egzèsis espirityèl pou nou ta kenbe lekti sa yo sou zye nou pandan tout sezon Karèm la, yon fason pou ede nou retounen viv yon lavi ki fonde sou pwomès batèm nou yo. Ansanm Nou kapab Chanje Lavi Ak tout kè nou n ap remèsye tout moun ki fè pwomès yo pou Kanpay Charite ak Devlòpman Achevèk la (ABCD). Jodia gen 214 moun sou 800 fanmiy ki nan pawas la ki deja reponn. Sepandan, nou bezwen sipò tout manm Sen Batelmi si nou vle atenn objektif pawas nou ki se $73,000. Kounye a se moman pou ou remèt Bondye pou tout sa Li te ba ou. Men yon ti don ki tou piti kabay fè yon gwo diferans nan lavi sila yo ki nan bezwen. Menm si don w lan se $50, $365, $1,000 osinon $5,000, l ap fè ladiferans e li gen valè. Si ou poko reponn pou ABCD 2015 lan, silvouplè panse pou bay yo don– yon don ki soti andedan kè w – pandan w ap itilize anvlòp pwomès yo ki disponib nan ban yo oswa ou kapab fè don w la nan www.isupportabcd.org. Mèsi pou tout sa w ap fè ak nan lespri ou fè l la. Se pou Bondye beni w. Seigneur, enseigne-moi tes voies, fais-moi connaître ta route. ...enseigne-moi, car tu es le Dieu qui me sauve. • Le groupe charismatique “Amour, sagesse & paix” vous invite tous à une matinée de jeûne et de prière tous les samedis de Carême de 9 am à 12:30 pm. • Retraite Pascale du 16 au 18 Mars Messe à 7 pm, reflection après la Messe avec le Rev.

Las lecturas de hoy son como un catecismo abreviado de lo que nuestras vidas de bautizados significan. Tal como Noé pasó por las aguas del diluvio a una alianza con Dios, así también nosotros entramos en una alianza, una relación con Dios prometida por nuestro Bautismo. El salmo nos recuerda que si realmente vivimos la alianza, el modo de vida que Dios quiere que vivamos no va a ser una carga, sino una fuente de amor y verdad. La carta de Pedro ofrece una explicación de lo que significa nuestro bautismo: es una plegaria a Dios pidiendo una buena conciencia. ¿Cómo obtenemos esta buena conciencia? Las palabras que Jesús proclama justo después de su tentación nos señala el camino: “Arrepiéntanse y crean en el Evangelio”. Podría ser un buen ejercicio espiritual mantener estas lecturas a nuestro alcance durante todo el tiempo de Cuaresma, un medio para ayudarnos a volver a una vida vivida según nuestras promesas bautismales.
