Jesus may be said to be a new center of the history of Israel, but his own life itself has a center. The Gospels and the apostolic letters lead us clearly toward this center: His death and Resurrection! The apostles provide us with penetrating reflections on the center. This is theology, the reflective effort of the first believers to absorb all that had been experienced in the death and Resurrection of Jesus. They unfold its consequences, showing in various ways that the believer is summoned to an unimaginably profound sharing in the Lord’s Passion and so in his victory. As the reader says, “the Word of the Lord,” we express our amazement and gratitude as we respond, “Thanks be to God.” The apostolic testimony is undergirded by the power of the Holy Spirit. We encounter the risen Lord through their witness.” (from What Happens At Mass by Jeremy Driscoll, OSB). But do I encounter the risen Lord when I listen to the second reading at Mass? I confess that because of distraction, or a lack of expectant faith, I oftentimes do not. What about you? How can we improve our encounter or lack thereof? Having a personal encounter with Jesus in the Liturgy of the Word and in the Liturgy of the Eucharist is at the heart of what the Mass is all about. Jesus is ready to encounter me/us. “Behold, I stand at the door and knock (Rev. 3:20). Let us dare to believe this Good News and actively keep seeking, asking and opening the door so that our share in Jesus’ Passion and so in his victory may deepen week after week. Blessings, Fr. John ST. MARELLO BOOKSTORE NEXT SUNDAY 2ND COLLECTION FOR OUR FAITH, OUR FAMILY, OUR FUTURE CAMPAIGN PRAY FOR THOSE WHO RECENTLY DIED May the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace: Jose “Mike” Martinez, Dolores Saunders, Mirella Batista Ash Wednesday is February 18. Lent is the season of fasting, almsgiving and self-denial. Without prayer in our Lenten practices fasting and almsgiving are merely actions. Prayer is our conversation with God and it is through those conversations that we gain the strength for fasting and self-denial. Through prayer we develop a closer, intimate relationship with God. Stop by the bookstore to find that daily meditation book that will enrich your Lenten journey. The bookstore will be open Sunday, February 8 and Sunday, February 22, 7:30 am to 2 pm and 4:30 to 8:30 p.m.. PRAYER & LIFE WORKSHOP Did you resolve to draw closer to God this year?

RINCÓN DEL PÁRROCO EL SIGNIFICADO DE LA MISA-“Segunda Lectura siempre se toma de una de las cartas de los apóstoles. Se puede decir que Jesus es un nuevo centro de la historia de Israel, pero su propia vida tiene un centro, Los Evangelios y las cartas apostólicas nos conducen claramente hacia este centro: ¡Su muerte y Resurrección! Los apóstoles nos proveen de reflexiones penetrantes sobre el centro. Esto es teología, el esfuerzo reflexivo de los primeros creyentes para absorber todo lo que había sido experimentado en la muerte y Resurrección de Jesus. Estas revelan sus consecuencias, mostrando en diversas maneras que el creyente es convocado a una participación increiblemente profunda en la Pasión del Señor y por lo tanto en su victoria. Como el lector dice, “Palabra de Dios,” expresamos nuestro asombro y gratitud al responder, “Te alabamos Señor.” El testimonio apostólico está fundamentado por el poder del Espíritu Santo. Nos encontramos con el Señor resucitado a través de su testimonio.” (del libro What Happens At Mass de Jeremy Driscoll, OSB) Pero, ¿me encuentro con el Señor resucitado cuando escucho a la segunda lectura en la Misa? Confieso que debido a la distracción o a la falta de fe que se espera de mi, a menudo no lo hago. ¿Cómo podemos mejorar nuestro encuentro o falta de eso? Tener un encuentro personal con Jesus en la Liturgía de la Palabra y en la Liturgía de la Eucarestía es el corazón de lo que la Misa se trata. Jesus está listo para encontrarse conmigo/nosotros. “He aquí, yo estoy a la puerta y llamo (Apo. 3:20). Atrevámonos a creer en estas Buenas Noticias y sigan buscando activamente, preguntando y abriendo la puerta para que nuestra participación en la Pasión de Jesus y su victoria se puedan profundizar semana tras semana.
