Dear Friends:
Nicknamed the ‘Emerald City’ because of the rain-induced greenery, Seattle is a lovely town. Aside from the tossing
of whole salmon in their fish market, Seattle has a wonderful ‘Bumbershoot Arts Festival’ (bumbershoot is a colloquial
word meaning umbrella) that also features every imaginable manner of preparing salmon at the accompanying food
pavilions. Pickled salmon, brown sugar salmon, baked, moussed, diced, sliced, mushed, seared, skewered….you name
it, if it is salmon, they offer it. Boston too is a great city, horrifically cold in winter but with charming concerts along the
Charles River performed by the Boston Pops in Summer. It’s the perfect jump off point for touring New England, not to
mention plenty of Revolutionary History along the Freedom Trail weaving its way amid the city streets; a contender for
the 2024 Summer Olympics, Boston too is a jewel of a City. Next week perhaps we will discuss the attributes of Stockton
or perhaps Lubbock, Texas…who knows why Seattle and Boston came to mind for this weekend…but consider it my
contribution to whatever else you may be chatting about this afternoon.
With the arrival of our second Pastoral Services Appeal (PSA)Brochure; ‘I am a disciple of Jesus…I grow in my discipleship
at Santa Clara de Asis’, you are now in possession of the FULL picture of what your contribution to the PSA means for
both the Diocese of Orange and our own Santa Clara parish home. Most certainly the PSA is our fair-share contribution
to the essential services (supporting people like our own Nicolaus in his Seminary process, funding Permanent Deacon
formation through the oversight of Deacon Frank Chavez, charitable outreach through Catholic Charities, etc.) of
the WHOLE Diocese but on a MUCH MORE PERSONAL LEVEL the PSA is an essential component of our OWN SCDAYL
financial health. Despite my frequent urging of our parish family to utilize THE FIRST HOUR method of living financial
stewardship (offering the compensation you receive from your weekly FIRST HOUR of work to Santa Clara as a form
of grace upon the week and appropriate 2015 stewardship) our weekly Stewardship Collection averages $13,000….
which, when divided by our supposed 1000 Registered families, comes out to $13 per family each week! This amount
barely allows us to pay our bills, staff salaries and provide working funds for our ministries….but it does not do much
for our Rectory mortgage, ongoing repairs/maintenance of our Santa Clara structure and certainly does not provide for
any savings for future growth, structural improvements and expansion. The monies needed for these ESSENTIAL HOME
expenses come almost entirely from our PSA pledge redemptions. Hence the importance of EVERY ONE who considers
Santa Clara as their home of worship and Catholic life, to participate on whatever level each can individually manage.
Some will be able to offer substantial amounts, especially when it is spread over the 10-months of pledge redemption.
Others will only be able to manage a smaller amount….but even these small amounts, when added together, result
in substantial contributions to the well being of Santa Clara. What always strikes me as odd is when people will tell
me they are not in a position to make a BIG contribution … so, they are not participating at all with the PSA. HUH?
Because someone can’t offer something BIG they choose to not offer anything? How does that make sense? Since the
vast amount of the PSA monies are returned to us, right here at Santa Clara, why would someone not want to help our
parish home….even in a small way?
Next weekend is our PSA Pledge Weekend, an opportunity for me to individually accept your PSA pledge envelope
and personally look you in the eye and say THANK YOU. The pledge is redeemable over the next 10 months, or one can
choose to make quarterly or lump sum payments. This year, at the behest of our Pastoral Council and Finance Teams
we are striving to engage a MAJORITY (if not everyone) of our Registered families as participants in the PSA….thus the
importance of everyone participating in whatever manner each can. Between now and next weekend, I ask you to please
consider the place of Santa Clara within your life, the strength you have found in joining your voice with thousands of
others at Mass, knowing that a loving community is always available to walk with you through whatever struggles life
brings you. Like any family, Santa Clara is only as strong as the participation and generosity of all our members. Please….
please… review the material I have provided…and please invite the Holy Spirit to guide you in your response…and may
the same Holy Spirit be as generous to you as you are generous to Santa Clara de Asis.
Next week’s Bulletin Letter? Well, perhaps some hot dining places in Lubbock but probably some thoughts about the
approach of Lent and especially my invitation to come and receive your Ashes (on Ash Wednesday) bright and early
before work or school…because I will start marking foreheads at 3:30am on February 18th! Until then, please know
that you are in my heart.
Love, FKB
(P.S.: Enjoy the game or the commercials, the guacamole, burgers or even a good book.)

January 31st - February 1st, 2015
Fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time - Super Sunday
Deuteronomy 18:15-20
First Corinthians 7:32-35
Mark 1:21-28
Upon hearing the single word ‘MOM’ echoing amidst the grocery store aisles, every mother’s head pivots. As the plaintive word
is repeated, most of the women continue about their previous business while one seeks out HER kid…for she, and she alone,
recognizes the unique sound of her child. In a world of confusing voices that frequently seek to control, manipulate and gain
power, how is one to discern the true voice of God amidst the cacophony of sounds? In Deuteronomy we hear of the ancient
‘transfer of power’ from Moses to those who would follow in his footsteps, reminiscent of our Presidential Inaugural transfers
of power or the white smoke of a Papal election, a societal imprimatur of authority. The selection from Mark notes that people
were impressed with Jesus’ manner of speech: ‘What is this? A new teaching with authority.”; they took note that Jesus seemed
to know what he was talking about. In today’s society THE CHURCH, most publicly witnessed within the person of the Pope and
Bishops, seeks to speak the words of God, sometimes this is technically called the ‘teaching magisterium’ – a mix of traditions,
devotions, discernments, statements, definitions and catechisms. All of this can be quite a mouthful to say, much less even
begin to hear. So, how does one discern the voice of God, (even amidst those within the Church who seek to preserve their
own authority and power)? In the same way that each mother knows the sound of her own child…so each of us, within the
inner recesses of our hearts, perceives the true voice of God, if we are willing to listen, amidst the clutter of sounds seeking
our attention. God always calls us to draw close; God never slams a door in our face; God is patient, kind and concerned for
our well-being. If a door is closed God will guide us to a window by which to get close to him. How God speaks to us is in the
same measure as our ability to mature in our conversation with him….the more we can handle, the more he will elaborate and
share…always done so that we may have life and live it to the full….as God understands fullness, not as we do….and that is
an important distinction!
Adoration coming up on February 6th, 9am-6pm….and while we are on the topic…
Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, the consecrated host exposed within a monstrance (the vessel holding the host) is a part of
the rich devotional life of the Church. Many of the Eucharistic devotions: adoration, processions, holy hours and such, developed
centuries ago during a time of erroneous emphasis on scrupulous spiritual purity prior to the reception of Communion at Mass.
Since the vast majority of people, (both then and now), were not in a ‘perfect state of grace’ they only came to Mass to SEE the
consecrated host when it was elevated (thus the bells to remind people to look up at the elevation of the newly consecrated host.)
Responding to people’s hunger to be near the Lord, Adoration and other Eucharistic devotions developed that provided people
with extended opportunities to SEE the consecrated host…while not receiving it. Obviously, especially with Pope Francis’ likening
the Church to a Field Hospital providing critical care to the spiritually wounded and stricken, today, RECEPTION of the Eucharist at
Mass is the norm. Still, the opportunity to spend quiet time with the exposed Blessed Sacrament is, as mentioned, part of the rich
options of devotion available to nurture people’s spirit.
On a personal level, as a child I was always gratified to know that the physical presence of Jesus, in the consecrated host, was
present within the Tabernacle. I never felt a need to see the exposed host, just knowing Jesus was there within the Tabernacle was
a tremendous strength and comfort. As I matured, I came to realize that, through the reception of Eucharist, Jesus was equally
present within ME…having become a physical part of my body as the host was digested and transformed into MY bone, flesh and
blood. While I still appreciate the presence of Jesus within the Tabernacle, I never feel his absence since he goes with me wherever
I am.
An unusual recent development concerning Eucharist devotion, especially as an offshoot of assorted youth spirituality/faith
formation efforts, has been an over-emphasis on trying to incorporate adoration into every experience…even to the point of
diminishing the Mass, which has always been considered the supreme form of worship within our Catholic Faith. Sing-a-longs and
exuberant rallies have their place, as seen while people have been waiting for the Pope to arrive in the Philippines or at the Brazil
World Youth Day events. However, let us never forget that most of our darkest and most tempted moments will not occur when
friends surround us but when we are alone. If we require the presence of others to validate and strengthen our faith in the face of
temptation, we have missed the point of receiving Eucharist and having Jesus dwell within us.
Given the occasional comments of people desiring frequent adoration experiences, I am surprised to see vast amounts of time
during our standard Adoration Schedule (First Fridays of each month, 9am-6pm…it used to end at 9pm but nobody was visiting)
when the Chapel is empty. It has been akin to people suggesting assorted programs that they feel are OBVIOUSLY NEEDED by the
parish but the same people who are never willing to actively volunteer or become involved with making these ideas a reality.
Having stated that adoration is a valuable part of the rich devotional treasure of the Church…but being confused by the sparse
attendance when adoration is offered, I am wondering if there might be someone who would like to claim ownership for overseeing
this monthly devotional experience? Someone to coordinate a collection of folk, in addition to those who will drop by, who will
maintain a prayerful presence within the Chapel during these hours of 9am-6pm on the First Friday of each month? This person
(people) will also be responsible for retiring the Blessed Sacrament at the end of adoration. If you are willing to accept this
responsibility, please give me a call at 714-970-2149. Thanks. Fr. Fred K.

Ten Elements of Ignatian Spirituality
Ignatian spirituality is one of the most influential and pervasive spiritual outlooks of our age. There’s a story behind it. And it has
many attributes. This page provides an introduction to it.
1. It begins with a wounded soldier daydreaming on his sickbed. Ignatian spirituality is rooted in the experiences of Ignatius
Loyola (1491-1556), a Basque aristocrat whose conversion to a fervent Christian faith began while he was recovering from war
wounds. Ignatius, who founded the Jesuits, gained many insights into the spiritual life in the course of a decadeslong spiritual
journey during which he became expert at helping others deepen their relationship with God. Its basis in personal experience
makes Ignatian spirituality an intensely practical spirituality, well suited to laymen and laywomen living active lives in the world.
2. “The world is charged with the grandeur of God.”? This line from a poem by the Jesuit Gerard Manley Hopkins captures a
central theme of Ignatian spirituality: its insistence that God is at work everywhere—in work, relationships, culture, the arts, the
intellectual life, creation itself. As Ignatius put it, all the things in the world are presented to us “so that we can know God more easily
and make a return of love more readily.”? Ignatian spirituality places great emphasis on discerning God’s presence in the everyday
activities of ordinary life. It sees God as an active God, always at work, inviting us to an ever-deeper walk.
3. It’s about call and response—like the music of a gospel choir. An Ignatian spiritual life focuses on God at work now. It fosters
an active attentiveness to God joined with a prompt responsiveness to God. God calls; we respond. This call-response rhythm of the
inner life makes discernment and decision making especially important. Ignatius’s rules for discernment and his astute approach to
decision making are well-regarded for their psychological and spiritual wisdom.
4. “The heart has its reasons of which the mind knows nothing.”? Ignatius Loyola’s conversion occurred as he became able to
interpret the spiritual meaning of his emotional life. The spirituality he developed places great emphasis on the affective life: the
use of imagination in prayer, discernment and interpretation of feelings, cultivation of great desires, and generous service. Ignatian
spiritual renewal focuses more on the heart than the intellect. It holds that our choices and decisions are often beyond the merely
rational or reasonable. Its goal is an eager, generous, wholehearted offer of oneself to God and to his work.
5. Free at last. Ignatian spirituality emphasizes interior freedom. To choose rightly, we should strive to be freedom-bird-in-flightfree
of personal preferences, superfluous attachments, and preformed opinions. Ignatius counseled radical detachment: “We should not
fix our desires on health or sickness, wealth or poverty, success or failure, a long life or a short one.”? Our one goal is the freedom to
make a wholehearted choice to follow God.
6. “Sum up at night what thou hast done by day.”? The Ignatian mind-set is strongly inclined to reflection and self-scrutiny. The
distinctive Ignatian prayer is the Daily Examen, a review of the day’s activities with an eye toward detecting and responding to the
presence of God. Three challenging, reflective questions lie at the heart of the Spiritual Exercises, the book Ignatius wrote, to help
others deepen their spiritual lives: “What have I done for Christ? What am I doing for Christ? What ought I to do for Christ?”?
7. A practical spirituality. Ignatian spirituality is adaptable. It is an outlook, not a program; a set of attitudes and insights, not rules
or a scheme. Ignatius’s first advice to spiritual directors was to adapt the Spiritual Exercises to the needs of the person entering
the retreat. At the heart of Ignatian spirituality is a profound humanism. It respects people’s lived experience and honors the
vast diversity of God’s work in the world. The Latin phrase cura personalis is often heard in Ignatian circles. It means “care of the
person”?—attention to people’s individual needs and respect for their unique circumstances and concerns.
8. Don’t do it alone. Ignatian spirituality places great value on collaboration and teamwork. Ignatian spirituality sees the link
between God and man as a relationship—a bond of friendship that develops over time as a human relationship does. Collaboration
is built into the very structure of the Spiritual Exercises; they are almost always guided by a spiritual director who helps the
retreatant interpret the spiritual content of the retreat experience. Similarly, mission and service in the Ignatian mode is seen not as
an individualistic enterprise, but as work done in collaboration with Christ and others.
9. “Contemplatives in action.”? Those formed by Ignatian spirituality are often called “contemplatives in action.”? They are reflective
people with a rich inner life who are deeply engaged in God’s work in the world. They unite themselves with God by joining God’s
active labor to save and heal the world. It’s an active spiritual attitude—a way for everyone to seek and find God in their workplaces,
homes, families, and communities.
10. “Men and women for others.”? The early Jesuits often described their work as simply “helping souls.”? The great Jesuit leader
Pedro Arrupe updated this idea in the twentieth century by calling those formed in Ignatian spirituality “men and women for
others.”? Both phrases express a deep commitment to social justice and a radical giving of oneself to others. The heart of this service
is the radical generosity that Ignatius asked for in his most famous prayer:
Lord, teach me to be generous. Teach me to serve you as you deserve;
to give and not to count the cost, to fight and not to heed the wounds,
to toil and not to seek for rest, to labor and not to ask for reward,
save that of knowing that I do your will.

Heart to Heart and Women of Faith
The next Heart to Heart will be Feb. 5th at 9am. and the Women of Faith
will be Feb. 5th at 7pm. The subject will be “Faith, Hope, and Love; and
the greatest of these is Love” Cor. 13.
What a wonderful opportunity for the women of the parish to gather
for fellowship, prayer and faith formation with other women of our
parish.
For your advance scheduling: LENTEN STATIONS OF THE CROSS
This Lent, which begins on Ash Wednesday, February 18th, will offer THREE Friday STATIONS of the CROSS on February 20, March
6th and March 20th. The Stations on February 20th will be presented by our Children/Family Faith Formation with assistance from
Youth Ministry; the Stations on March 6th will be presented by Music Ministry and the Stations on March 20th will be presented
by our Filipino Community along with Seminarian Nicolaus. The Knights of Columbus will offer a meal after the February 20th and
March 6th Stations and our Filipino Community will be cooking for the March 20th dinner. Stations on each evening will begin at
6:30pm followed by dinner.
I wrote it for Lent LAST YEAR….but it still holds true for Ash Wednesday and Lent in
2015…
‘Like things that accumulate within our garages or closets, our lives can become clogged with accumulations of unrealized hopes,
regrets, disappointments, broken relationships, erroneous choices and wrong directions followed. LENT is the opportunity for Spring
Cleaning and the organizing of all the things that sap our spiritual energy, keeping us self-centeredly focused on ourselves rather
than being disciples of service for the bigger world. Thus, these days prior to LENT are ripe for us to do personal ‘spiritual inventories’:
Are we secure in our relationship with God? Are we fearful of God or content within his embrace? Do we view God as wrathful or
merciful? (And from where did that image come?) Are we experiencing guilt for any personal choice(s) that once made cannot be
undone? Do we actually trust that when God forgives us, we ARE forgiven….or do we keep confessing the same long-ago sins over
and over and over? Are we being truthful with God about why we do what we do? Have we moved from a Sunday-only relationship
to having daily conversations (as opposed to recitation of memorized prayers) with Jesus? Have we become spiritual gluttons, more
focused on our own ‘salvation’ than helping make the world a better place for the rest of God’s children? These are good reflections
by which to prepare for the journey of LENT since they guide us in knowing from where we are starting the journey….and giving us
a clue as to where we would like to end up on Easter Sunday.
Beginning as LENT does on ASH WEDNESDAY (February 18th) the marking of our foreheads with ashes is a powerful way to initiate
our journeys. That being said, Ash Wednesday is not a requirement but is reminiscent of the Scriptural references to putting on
sackcloth and ASHES as a way of humbling ourselves before God. The concept of HUMBLING ourselves before God is probably one
of the most powerful aspects of LENT (and Ash Wednesday particularly) for people like ourselves living as we do in such a highpowered culture. In this day of ‘Housewives of Orange County/Atlanta/New Jersey/Bell Gardens’ exterior appearance is soooooo
very superficially important. To wear an ashen cross THROUGHOUT THE DAY on Ash Wednesday is the equivalent of us having our
boarding passes in our hands as we start our journeys. I mention THROUGHOUT THE DAY as ashes are meant to be worn in our
public lives, not privately shared with our pillows at the end of work. Thus, I will be distributing ashes here at Santa Clara starting
at 3:30am (so you may stop by on your way to work or school) pausing for the 8:30am Mass (where ashes will be available at its
conclusion) and then again with our School Mass at 10:00am (with ashes again available at the conclusion of Mass.) And then,
no more ashes here at Santa Clara. No afternoon or evening opportunities…just seven hours at the start of Ash Wednesday by
which to get the freshest, boldest ashen cross on your forehead and then experience the glances, stares and incomprehension of
your office staff, fellow students and Costco/Vons/Ralphs/Albertsons shoppers throughout the OC. Hey, if you don’t want to humble
yourself before the Lord, then don’t get ashes, its not a requirement….but getting them late at night and then scooting home is
pretty safe when it comes to humility and might actually be a detriment to a successful LENTEN journey.
Throughout LENT we are invited to embrace a couple of other DISCIPLINES….which are not commands (nor sins if we don’t
accomplish them) but ways by which we can FOCUS and be INTENTIONAL in our LENTEN reflections. On ASH WEDNESDAY and
GOOD FRIDAY we are encouraged to FAST and ABSTAIN FROM MEAT. Fasting does not mean going without food but rather only
eating the equivalent of one full meal in the course of the day. Abstaining from meat is a holdover from the days when meat was
considered a luxury but it serves us well in attempting to do something that really ought to be very easy but becomes surprisingly
hard to do with meat being so readily available to us. On ALL the Fridays of LENT we are encouraged to ABSTAIN from meat…again
the idea is primarily to challenge ourselves to break out of our regular comfort patterns and see how easy or difficult change is for
us. If we have a hard time INTENTIONALY remembering to incorporate the little stuff like fasting or abstaining from meat….how well
are we going to do with hearing and perceiving the grace of God within life’s really BIG challenges? ‘

Pray, love, learn….repeat…
Instead of a Parish Mission this Lent….you are invited to one
night each week for the six weeks of Lent to experience and learn
of the Jesuit forms of prayer/spirituality. Many commentators
have referenced Pope Francis ‘way of doing things’ and much of
his approach is rooted within the Igantian (Jesuit) Spirituality.
Lent begins with Ash Wednesday on February 18th and these
six THURSDAY nights have been arranged through the Loyola
Institute for Spirituality in Orange. Commencing on Thursday,
February 19th, ‘The Ignatian Experience’ will cover the following
topics and forms of prayer:
Feb. 19 Ignatian Spirituality: God’s Love (Lectio Divina)
Feb. 26 Sinner, Yet Beloved (Examen of Consciousness)
Mar. 5 Jesus’ Birth and Early Years (Ignatian Contemplation)
Mar. 12 Jesus’ Ministry Years (Prayer of Reminiscence)
Mar. 19 Jesus’ Suffering and Death (Imagination/Memory
in Ig. Contemplation)
Mar. 26 Jesus Risen to New Life (Contemplatio/Discipleship)
Each evening begins at 7:00pm and will conclude at 9:00pm.
Childcare is available each evening.
