JANUARY 25, 2015
Daily Reflection for January 25, 2015
By Mary Lee Brock, Creighton University Werner Institute
During the first part of January there is a lot of energy around New Year’s Resolutions. People ask if you
make resolutions. News outlets feature stories on how to make effective resolutions. People see this as a chance
to attend to long neglected goals around health, finances, relationships. The fitness clubs are always their busiest right after the first of the calendar year. Organizing bins and brand new calendars fly off the store shelves.
Yet as the weeks of January progress our resolutions are often left by the wayside. One poll indicates that so
many people abandon their New Year’s resolutions after 3 ½ weeks that this [past] Friday, January 23, could
be referred to as Fail Friday.
Today’s readings are about repenting and changed identities and new beginnings. In the first reading when
the people of Nineveh hear Jonah announce their city will be destroyed they drastically change their behavior.
The Psalms cry out for the Lord to teach us His ways. There is an urgency in the second reading from Corinthians which speaks about time running out. And in today’s Gospel from Mark, Jesus proclaims the gospel to
the people of Galilee: “This is the time of fulfillment. The kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, and believe in
the gospel.”
When I was younger I remember being afraid of the word repent. It was associated with dire consequences.
I was sure there was a trick question involved and I worried that I would not know that I was not in God’s favor. What if I had been a citizen of Nineveh and had my ear phones in so I missed Jonah’s urging to change
my ways?
Now as I look at the definition of repent: to turn from sin and dedicate oneself to the amendment of one’s
life, I have a different view. I trust in God’s love for me and I believe God wants me to make the right choices.
God is always speaking and I simply need to listen and trust in His ways. I also feel God’s compassion when I
fall short in my efforts.
It is no wonder New Year’s resolutions are abandoned as they are rarely grounded in serving the kingdom
of God. It is so easy to get wrapped up in the values of society and worry about appearance or financial
wealth. When I reflect upon some of my sinful moments I can see how my choices are fueled by fervent rationalizations and misguided distractions. When thinking about a most popular resolution to exercise more: celebrating a healthy body by exercising more is not inherently a bad thing, but what a difference it would make if
our focus on physical exercise would be to grow stronger and to have more energy to better serve others.
So as I luxuriate in these days of ordinary time I ask myself these questions in prayer: What habits do I
have that call for me to repent and turn toward God? When I am motivated by ego or selfishness how can I
become a more generous and loving person? How can I be more open to God’s loving guidance to help me
use my gifts and talents in service to my community?
TODAY MARKS THE START OF CATHOLIC SCHOOLS WEEK
National Catholic Schools Week is the annual celebration of Catholic education in the United States. It begins on the last Sunday in January. The theme
for the National Catholic Schools Week 2015 is “Catholic Schools: Communi-
ties of Faith, Knowledge and Service.”
The Catholic schools of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia are part of a centuries-long tradition of academic excellence. Each year at this time, the Archdiocese of Philadelphia focuses on the many gifts a Catholic education has to offer
our children. Particularly during times of change and challenge, Philadelphia
Archdiocesan Catholic schools provide long-term benefits to our youth, namely a high-quality, faith-based education that will continue to pay dividends for
years to come.
Please see Page 6 for the Catholic Schools Week events planned at Mater Dei Catholic School.

Winter Prayer
Lord, you know I am growing older. Keep me from
becoming talkative and possessed with the idea that
I must express myself on every subject. Release me
from the craving to straighten out everyone’s affairs.
Keep me from the recital of endless detail but give
me wings to get to the point. Seal my lips when I am
inclined to tell of my aches and pains. They are increasing with the years, and my love to speak of
them grows sweeter as time goes by. Teach me the
glorious lesson that occasionally I may be wrong.
Make me thoughtful but not nosey; helpful but not
bossy. With my vast store of wisdom and experience,
it does seem a pity not to use it all, but you know,
Lord, that I will want a few friends at the end.
after the 9 am, 11 am and 1 pm Masses. See Page 7.

MASS OF ANOINTING AT ST. STANISLAUS
SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 11 AM MASS
St. James writes: "Is anyone among you sick? He
should summon the presbyters of the Church and
they should pray over him, anoint him with oil in the
name of the Lord, and the prayer of faith will save
the sick person, and the Lord will raise him up." The
grace received through this sacrament is a gift of the
Holy Spirit, Who renews trust and faith in God and
strengthens us against the temptations of the evil one
and the temptation to discouragement and anguish.
Anyone who has a serious health condition or illness, who has experienced sudden health problems,
who will be undergoing surgery between February 8
and February 15, or who experiences the frailty of
old age, is encouraged to receive the sacrament of the
Anointing of the Sick at the 11 am Mass on Sunday,
February 8. If you plan on attending this Mass,
please call the Parish Center and leave your name.

GROW YOUR FAITH AT ST. STANISLAUS
Still Time to Sign-up!
There is still time to join in with other parishioners
for a Great Adventure bible study called Psalms: The
School of Prayer on either Monday mornings (from
9 to 10:30 am) or Monday evenings (from 7 to 8:30
pm). So far the group is only one week into the text
(an introduction only)!
Did you know the Psalms is the most often quoted
book in the New Testament? Or that King David contrary to tradition - did not write all 150 psalms?
Jesus Himself used the psalms frequently - not just in
prayer, but to explain things about Himself and His
teaching.
Come explore and learn more about this rich biblical resource for private prayer, orient your heart to
God and direct your inmost thoughts to Him. The
cost to participants in the study for the workbook
and study guide is $20; the remainder will be picked
up by the parish. This is a great Lenten and preLenten exercise to draw closer to prayer, fasting, and
almsgiving during this season.

FEBRUARY FOOD COLLECTION
will be on the weekend of January
31 & February 1. For this upcoming food cupboard we are in need
of the following items:
 Food Needs: plain rice, canned meat and fish,
jars of applesauce, hearty low sodium soups, juice
boxes & bottles, jam/jelly, sugar/honey, mayo,
ketchup, mustard, coffee/tea, healthy cold cereals, canned beans.
 Non-Food Needs: liquid laundry detergent, toilet
tissue, paper towels, liquid hand soap, facial tissues, 3 in 1 body wash, toothpaste, deodorants,
shampoos
Also, we need your help by NOT giving us:
 Baby items – Catholic Social Services in Norristown can really use them!
 Outdated or opened food items – we cannot give
these out and we must then dispose of it & the
local bird sanctuary no longer takes them!
 Over-sized products or packages – we find they
are not taken and remain on our shelves;
 Any sugared items where healthier substitutes are
available: cereals, snacks, etc.;
 Prepared rice – people seem to prefer plain rice
as the prepared rice boxes remain on our shelves;
Thank you again for all that you do, as the Food
Cupboard would not exist without your dedicated
support and wonderful generosity! May God bless
you and your families for your on-going support to
the needy in our Lansdale community.
With gratitude, Sister Barbara

THE GUARDIANS
This monthly support group for fathers of all ages is
named in honor of Saint Joseph, Guardian of the Redeemer. It provides opportunities for members to
learn from one another by sharing their insights
about challenges they face in married and family life,
in the workplace, and in their spiritual life. Through
fellowship, prayer, and discussion of relevant issues,
participants come to a deeper understanding of the
richness of their Catholic faith and their identity as
husbands and fathers. Single fathers are always welcome. For more information or to register for your
first meeting, contact Deacon Frank Langsdorf at
[email protected]. The group will meet
on Tuesdays, February 3, March 3, April 7, May 5,
June 2, August 4, September 1, October 6, November 3, and December 1, 2015, 7 pm to 8:30 pm in
the Religious Education Room at Corpus Christi.

speaks to you, even in the smallest encounters. Each
session includes a thirty minute DVD presentation

III DOMINGO ORDINARIO - 25 DE ENERO DE 2015
Yo soy la luz del mundo, dice el Señor; el que me sigue no caminará en tinieblas, sino que tendrá la luz de la vida. (Juan 8, 12)
Intención de la misa: (Para ofrecer una misa por una intención anunciada, hable con Padre Forlano)
1) Jonás 3, 1-5. 10
2) 1 Corintios 7, 29-31
Lecturas del Domingo
Salmo 24, 4bc-5ab. 6-7bc. 8-9 Señor, instrúyeme en tus sendas.
3) Marcos 1, 14-20
IR DETRÁS DE JESÚS Cuando el Bautista fue detenido, Jesús vino
a Galilea y comenzó a «proclamar la Buena Noticia de Dios». Según
Marcos, no enseña propiamente una doctrina para que sus discípulos
la aprendan y difundan correctamente. Jesús anuncia un acontecimiento que está ya ocurriendo. Él lo está ya viviendo y quiere compartir su experiencia con todos.
Marcos resume así su mensaje: «Se ha cumplido el plazo»: ya no
hay que mirar hacia atrás. «Está cerca el reino de Dios»: pues quiere
construir un mundo más humano. «Convertíos»: no podéis seguir
como si nada estuviera ocurriendo; cambiad vuestra manera de pensar
y de actuar. «Creed en esta Buena Noticia». Este proyecto de Dios es
la mejor noticia que podemos escuchar.
Todo lo que Jesús decía de Dios, todo lo que hacía en nombre de
Dios, a la gente le resultaba algo nuevo y bueno. Y su mensaje se reducía a esto: "Dios está cerca de nosotros, más cerca de lo que os imagi-
náis, y solo quiere hacer una vida más humana, más digna y dichosa.
Cambiar de manera de pensar y creer en esta Buena Noticia”.
Después de este solemne resumen, la primera actuación de Jesús es
buscar colaboradores para llevar adelante su proyecto. Jesús va
«pasando junto al lago de Galilea». Ha comenzado su camino. Es un
profeta itinerante que busca seguidores para hacer con ellos un recorrido apasionante: vivir abriendo caminos al reino de Dios. No es un
rabino sentado en su cátedra, que busca alumnos para formar una
escuela religiosa. Ser cristiano no es aprender doctrinas, sino seguirle a
Jesús en su proyecto de vida.
El que toma la iniciativa es siempre Jesús. Se acerca, fija su mirada
en aquellos cuatro pescadores y los llama a dar una orientación nueva
a sus vidas. Sin su intervención, no nace nunca un verdadero cristiano.
Los creyentes hemos de vivir con más fe la presencia viva de Cristo y
su mirada sobre cada uno de nosotros. Si no es él, ¿quién puede dar
una nueva orientación a nuestras vidas?
Pero lo más decisivo es escuchar desde dentro su llamada: «Venid
detrás de mí». No es tarea de un día. Escuchar esta llamada significa
despertar la confianza en Jesús, reavivar nuestra adhesión personal a
él, tener fe en su proyecto, identificarnos con su programa, reproducir
en nosotros sus actitudes… y, de esta manera, ganar más personas
para su proyecto.

El 22 de enero en todas las diócesis de los Estados Unidos se observa
un día de penitencia por violaciones contra la dignidad de la persona
humana por actos de aborto. Roguemos por la restauración plena del
derecho legal a la vida. Es el aniversario de la legalización del aborto
en los Estados Unidos por la decisión, Roe vs. Wade, por la Corte
Suprema (1973). Rueguen para que se respete la vida humana como
un don sagrado, especialmente la de niños en el vientre de su madre.
Oración a Dios el Padre de toda la vida
Dios eterno, te has revelado como El Padre de toda la vida. Te alabamos por el amor de Padre que ofreces a toda la creación, pero en
especial a nosotros, porque nos creaste a Tú imagen y semejanza.
Padre, te suplicamos, protege a todos los que son amenazados por el
aborto y sálvalos de ese maligno poder destructor. Te rogamos que les
des fuerza y valor, a todos los Padres que luchan contra la tentación
del aborto, para que nunca caigan bajo su poder de terror.
Bendice a nuestras familias y a nuestro país, para que podamos acoger
con alegría la vida, de la cual, Tú mismo eres fuente y eternidad.
Amén.

“La Virgen Peregrina.” Un retablo de la Virgen de
Guadalupe va a viajar por los hogares de la comunidad y cada familia tendrá la Virgen por una semana
y tendrá la oportunidad a rezar el rosario en familia
e invitar a más familias - sus vecinos - a unirse en la
oración. Es un medio que ayuda a tener un encuentro con María,
quien como buena Madre, sale a nuestro paso y llega a visitarnos a
nuestra casa. Es una oportunidad maravillosa para acercarnos a ella en
familia, agradecerle, ponernos en sus manos, ofrecerle nuestras penas y
alegrías y pedirle que nos proteja. Para alguna pregunta o para registrar su familia por una semana, llamar a Carlos Z. (954) 309-1771.
LOS SACRAMENTOS
Bautismos – Clases bautismales serán el primer Domingo de cada mes
después de la misa. Inscríbase por anticipado con el Padre Forlano.
La próxima clase bautismal es el 1 de febrero. Todos los que necesitan
bautizar a un niño o una niña o quieren ser padrino o madrina deben
asistir. Normalmente, se celebran los bautismos durante la misa del
segundo y cuarto Domingo del mes. Para ser padrino/madrina o recibir una carta de elegibilidad, una persona tiene que ser: 1) Un Católico
practicante con un mínimo de 16 años de edad y haya recibido todos
los sacramentos de iniciación - bautismo, confirmación, y comunión. 2)
Registrado en la parroquia o bien conocido en la comunidad de la
Iglesia. 3) Casado por la iglesia católica o soltero sin vivir en unión
libre. 4) Hay que asistir a la Misa. 5) Deben tener sus propios hijos
confirmados si tienen la edad.
El Sacramento de Reconciliación se ofrece los sábados a las 8:30 a.m. y
4:00 p.m. y los domingos 12:30 - 12:50 p.m. o por cita con Padre Forlano o Padre Miguel.
¿Cómo le devolveré al Señor todo el bien que me ha hecho?
(Salmo 116:12)
1/18/15 - Colecta: $189.15
¡Gracias por su generosidad! ¿Es mi ofrenda una señal de agradecimiento a Dios y una participación en su caridad?
Para un consejo o una cita, hable con Padre Forlano o Padre Miguel
después de la misa o puede contactarlos a 215-855-3133 ext. 111 (P. Forlano) o ext. 101 (P. Miguel) al Centro Parroquial de San Estanislao.
También, se puede comunicar con Padre Forlano por correo electrónico:
