They eagerly anticipate more fun antics from their SuperKids friends. They enjoy the readers because the SuperKids are in second grade and learning many of the same things as them. They have entered the Hundreds Kingdom in math and are learning how to double regroup and borrow. They look forward to counting money and telling time. Their science projects for the March science fair will focus on recycling. They will create animals from recycled materials. They will teach animal facts to each other, such as habitats, eating habits, and life span. Most importantly, they are preparing for the Sacrament of Holy Eucharist. They cannot wait to take part in Holy Communion with their classmates. Thank you for your continued support of our class and school.

Page 6 February 19, 2017 DIVINE WISDOM The Lord’s message, through Moses, was to “take no revenge and cherish no grudge . . . love your neighbor as yourself” (Leviticus 19:18). We might think, “Great in theory, but not always realistic!” Then Jesus in today’s Gospel goes even further. Take a slap in the face and then turn the other cheek? Treat enemies the same as friends? Again, we’re tempted to think that those are nice ideals, but not very practical in the “real world.” Paul echoes Jesus when he tells the Corinthians that what passes for human wisdom is absurdity to God. Divine wisdom casts sunshine on the good and the bad, showers rain on the honest and the dishonest—without distinction. We must examine our wisdom and common sense to see how they compare to the wisdom of God, and make adjustments accordingly. TODAY’S READINGS First Reading — Take no revenge and cherish no grudge; love your neighbor as yourself. (Leviticus 19:1-2, 17-18). Psalm — The Lord is kind and merciful (Psalm 103). Second Reading — You are the temple of God, and holy (1 Corinthians 3:16-23). Gospel — Offer no resistance; love your enemies (Matthew 5:38-48). READINGS FOR THE WEEK Sir 1:1-10; Ps 93:1-2, 5; Mk 9:14-29 Sir 2:1-11; Ps 37:3-4, 18-19, 27-28, 39-40; Mk 9:30-37 Wednesday: 1 Pt 5:1-4; Ps 23:1-3a, 4-6; Mt 16:13-19 Thursday: Sir 5:1-8; Ps 1:1-4, 6; Mk 9:41-50 Friday: Sir 6:5-17; Ps 119:12, 16, 18, 27, 34, 35; Mk 10:1-12 Saturday: Sir 17:1-15; Ps 103:13-18; Mk 10:13-16 Sunday: Is 49:14-15; Ps 62:2-3, 6-9; 1 Cor 4:1-5; Mt 6:24-34 Monday: Tuesday: SAINTS AND SPECIAL OBSERVANCES Sunday: Seventh Sunday in Ordinary Time Monday: Presidents’ Day Tuesday: St. Peter Damian Wednesday: The Chair of St. Peter the Apostle; Washington’s Birthday Thursday: St. Polycarp Altar Bread for the month of February is in Memory of EDWARD A. FUCHS Requested by The Fuchs Family SABIDURÍA DIVINA El mensaje del Señor, por medio de Moisés, fue “no te vengarás ni guardaras rencor . . . , ama a tu prójimo como a ti mismo” (Levítico 19:18). Podríamos pensar, “Excelente enseñanza pero no es muy realista”. Y en el Evangelio de hoy, Jesús se adelanta. ¿Si te golpean, pon la otra mejilla? ¿Tratar a los enemigos como si fueran amigos? Y así otra vez, estamos tentados a pensar que son bonitos ideales, perno no muy prácticos en el “mundo real”. Pablo hace eco a las palabras de Jesús cuando les dice a los corintios que lo que parece ser sabiduría de los hombres es absurdo para Dios. La sabiduría divina brilla sobre los buenos y los malos, llueve sobre los honestos y deshonestos, sin distinción. Debemos examinar nuestra sabiduría y sentido común para ver cómo estos se comparan con la sabiduría de Dios, y hacer los ajustes correspondientes. LECTURAS DE HOY Primera lectura — No te vengues ni guardes rencor, ama a tu prójimo como a ti mismo (Levítico 19:1-2, 17-18). Salmo — El Señor es compasivo y misericordioso (Salmo 103 [102]). Segunda lectura — Tú eres templo de Dios y eres santo (1 Corintios 3:16-23). Evangelio — No ofrezcas resistencia; ama a tus enemigos (Mateo 5:38-48). LECTURAS DE LA SEMANA Sir 1:1-10; Sal 93 (92):1-2, 5; Mc 9:14-29 Sir 2:1-11; Sal 37 (36):3-4, 18-19, 27-28, 39-40; Mc 9:30-37 Miércoles: 1 Pe 5:1-4; Sal 23 (22):1-3a, 4-6; Mt 16:13-19 Jueves: Sir 5:1-8; Sal 1:1-4, 6; Mc 9:41-50 Viernes: Sir 6:5-17; Sal 119 (118):12, 16, 18, 27, 34, 35; Mc 10:1-12 Sábado: Sir 17:1-15; Sal 103 (102):13-18; Mc 10:13-16 Domingo: Is 49:14-15; Sal 62 (61):2-3, 6-9; 1 Cor 4:1-5; Mt 6:24-34 Lunes: Martes: LOS SANTOS Y OTRAS CELEBRACIONES Domingo: Séptimo Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario Lunes: Día de los Presidentes Martes: San Pedro Damián Miércoles: La Cátedra de San Pedro; Nacimiento de Washington Jueves: San Policarpo Altar Wine for the month of February is in Memory of DEACON MICHAEL FITZGERALD requested by The Family February 19, 2017 Page 7 2017 Annual Archdiocesan Men’s and Women’s Events All are welcome!
