(See the book in the gathering space for additional names.) To the parents of our young children, may we suggest... Relax! God put the wiggle in children; don't feel you have to suppress it in God's house. All are welcome! Sit toward the front where it is easier for your little one to see and hear what's going on at the altar. They tire of seeing the backs of others' heads. Quietly explain the parts of the Mass and actions of the priest, altar servers, cantor, etc... Sing the hymns, pray and voice the responses. Children learn liturgical behavior by copying you. If you have to leave mass because your child is inconsolably crying or screaming for more than 30 seconds, feel free to do so; once he/she has calmed down, please bring them back. As Jesus said, “Let the children come to me.” Remember that the way we welcome children in church directly affects the way they respond to the Church, to God, and to one another. Let them know that they are at home in this house of worship. To the members of our parish The presence of children is a gift to the Church and they are a reminder that our parish is growing. Please welcome our children and give a smile of encouragement to their parents. E-Mail: [email protected] Become a Member of St. James Parish!

FLU SEASON In this season of widespread and severe influenza, as pastor, instead of making a pastoral decision to discontinue offering the Precious Blood, I will leave it up to individuals to decide whether or not they want to receive the Precious Blood and share the sign of peace by shaking the hands of others or offering an embrace of peace. Please know that receiving the Precious Body of Christ is also to receive the fullness of the Lord - Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity - and that refraining from receiving the chalice or extending a handshake anytime during the year when one is experiencing the symptoms of an illness or fears catching an illness, should not be seen as disrespecting others in any way; it may be that the person wishes to not communicate his or her germs to others or become sick. I encourage those who have flu-like symptoms, coughing, sore throats, or sinus infections to refrain from receiving the Precious Blood or shaking the hands of others so that you do not communicate infections to others, especially the most vulnerable-elderly and children. Sincerely, Father Tim ST. JAMES CHILD DEVELOPMENT CENTER is offering a GREAT SPECIAL FOR NEW CHILDREN!! 2 FREE WEEKS for 2 and 3 year olds!!

LECTURAS PARA ESTA SEMANA IV Domingo Del Tiempo Ordinario Domingo: Duet 18, 15-20; Sal 94; 1 Cor 7, 32-35; Mc 1, 21-28 Señor, que no seamos sordos a tu voz Lunes: Mal 3, 1-4; Sal 23; Lc 2, 22-40 El Señor es el rey de la gloria Martes: Heb 12, 1-4; Sal 21; Mc 5, 21-43 Alaben al Señor los que lo buscan Miércoles: Heb 12, 4-7, 11-15; Sal 102; Mc 6, 1-6 El Señor es bueno, el Señor nos ama Jueves: Sab 3, 1-9; Sal 123; 2 Cor 4, 7-15; Lc 9, 23-26 Nuestra ayuda es invocar al Señor Viernes: Heb 13, 1-8; Sal 26; Mc 6, 14-29 El Señor es mi luz y mi salvación Sábado: Heb 13, 15-17, 20-21; Sal 22; Mc 6, 30-34 El Señor es mi pastor, nada me faltará Próximo Domingo: Job 7, 1-4, 6-7; Sal 146; 1 Cor 9, 16-19, 22-23; Mc 1, 29-39 Alabemos al Señor, nuestro Dios A los padres de los niños pequeños les sugerimos... Estén tranquilos! El Señor hizo a los niños inquietos; no sientan que tienen que suprimir esto en ellos en la casa del Señor. ¡Todos están bienvenidos! Por favor siéntanse adelante donde su niño pueda ver lo que está ocurriendo en el altar. Ellos se cansan de estar viendo siempre las espaldas de los que estén enfrente de ellos. En voz baja, explíquele a su niño las partes de la Misa y lo que está haciendo el sacerdote, los monaguillos, el animador, etc. Participe en los cantos y oraciones, y que su voz se oiga en las respuestas. Los niños aprenden el comportamiento litúrgico copiando a sus padres. Si tiene que salirse de la Misa porque su niño ha estado llorando sin parar o llorando por más de 30 segundos, siéntase en la libertad de hacerlo. Cuando el niño ya se haya calmado, regrese de nuevo a la Iglesia. Como nos dijo Jesucristo, "Dejen que los niños vengan a Mí." Recuerde que la manera cómo acogemos a los niños en la Iglesia, tiene un efecto directo en cómo ellos responden a la Iglesia, a Dios y a las otras personas. Nuestra actitud debe decirles que ellos están en casa, en esta casa de oración. A los miembros de nuestra parroquia La presencia de los niños es un regalo a la Iglesia y un recordatorio para todos que la parroquia está creciendo. Por favor démosle la bienvenida a nuestros niños y animemos a sus padres con una sonrisa amable.
