FIRST SUNDAY OF LENT FEBRUARY 22, 2015 Mass Intentions Today’s Gospel Reflection 1st Reading: Gn 9:8-15 * Psalm 25:4-9 * 2nd Reading: 1 Pt 3:18-22 * Gospel: Mk 1:12-15 THE MEANING OF OUR BAPTISM Lent is the time of year that we devote to scrutinizing our lives in the light of our baptism into the death and resurrection of Jesus. 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.

Paluch Co. . “Your ways, O LORD, make known to me; teach me your paths.” — Psalm 25:4 EL SIGNIFICADO DE NUESTRO BAUTISMO Cuaresma es la época del año que dedicamos a escudriñar nuestras vidas a la luz de nuestro Bautismo en la muerte y resurrección de Jesús. 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.

PASTOR’S MESSAGE Lent is a forty-day liturgical season that begins on Ash Wednesday and concludes on the Great Vigil of Easter. The number forty frequently occurs in the old and the new testaments of the Bible. It rained forty days and nights during the Great Flood (Genesis 7:12); the people of Israel were forced to wander in the wilderness for forty years (Numbers 14:33-34); the inhabitants of Nineveh fasted and repented for forty days in response to the preaching of Jonah (Jonah 3:4-5). “Forty” has always had special spiritual significance regarding preparation. Moses stayed in Mount Sinai for “40 days and 40 nights, without eating any food or drinking any water”, preparing to receive the Ten Commandments (Exodus 34:28). Elijah walked “40 days and 40 nights” before he reached the mountain of the Lord, Mount Horeb (another name for Sinai) and had a vision of God (1 Kings 19:8-9). Most importantly, Jesus stayed in the desert for “40 days and 40 nights” fasting, praying, and being tempted by the devil, before He began His public ministry (Matthew 4:1-11; Mark 1:12-13; and Luke 4:1-13). Jesus appeared on various occasions to the apostles and others forty days between His resurrection and ascension during which He strengthened their faith and prepared them for the coming of the Holy Spirit (Acts 1:3). Lent is a special time of prayer, penance, sacrifice and good works in preparation of the celebration of Easter. How do we prepare for Easter? During Lent, make an effort to attend Mass as frequently as you can; visit the Adoration Chapel. On March 23, at 7:00 p.m., we will have our Lenten penance service and several priests will be around to hear confessions. Do good works, especially works of mercy. Participating in the Annual Catholic Appeal is an opportunity to do some sacrifice. Let us pray to the Holy Spirit to grant us a heart to pray, a heart to share, a heart to serve, a heart to witness, and a heart to build bridges. Fr. Bernard Ranoa P.S.

AMOUNT OF DONATION $____________ Page 3 FIRST SUNDAY OF LENT FEBRUARY 22, 2015 The mission of the Academy is to form young disciples to be spiritually, intellectually, and socially prepared to integrate gospel values for living a Catholic, Christian life in a secular world. We are committed to providing a Christian environment where students experience God through exploration of their lives and the wonders of His creation. The Academy envisions itself as a partner with parents; sharing the educational ministry of the Church. Blessings from St. Michael Academy to the St. Michael Parish Community! We lead such busy lives; parents, grandparents, even children. It is very difficult to set aside even a little time to be silent. Now think about the difficulty in finding time to be silent, and, focusing on God. We all get caught up in our day to day activities. Finding the time and place to ‘just be’ with God is not easy. This week, our students began the wonderful art of meditation. During this Lenten season, during some part of the day, teachers and students will put the worries and cares of the day aside and meditate; just to be with God. Enrollment/registration is an ongoing process at St. Michael Academy. We are a Kindergarten through 8th Grade school. You are invited to call the office and schedule a tour of the Academy. If you think it is too expensive to send your child to Catholic school, give us the opportunity to show you how the cost of your child’s Catholic education can fit in your budget. Call 619 470-4880, or e-mail Mrs. Lewis @ [email protected]. Fr. Manny offers a $1,000.00 discount to new families enrolling in the Academy.

Page 4 Religious Education Buena Algoso (619)470-2292 GOD’S WORD TODAY. The Church teaches us that two spiritual strands weave together to form the fabric of the season of Lent. The first, and most familiar, is the repentant character of Lent. Through the penitential practices of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving we spend these forty days in the desert of repentance, preparing for the celebration of Easter. The second strand is the baptismal character of this holy season. The unbaptized spend Lent in preparation for their baptism and most of us, the already baptized, spend this time preparing to renew the promises—the covenant—established when we were baptized. Today’s readings echo this theme of the covenant between God and us—God’s holy people. Let us enter the Lenten desert of repentance, mindful of the promises made at our baptism when we rejected Satan and professed faith in God. From Saint Margaret Sunday Missal, copyright © J. S. Paluch Company 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 the Lectionary for Mass © 1969, 1981, 1997, International Commission on English in the Liturgy Corporation.
