El miércoles 11 de febrero, la Iglesia celebra la Fiesta de Nuestra Señora
de Lourdes. Todos sabemos la historia: el 11 de febrero de 1858, una
joven mujer llamada Bernardita, vio la aparición de una “Señora vestida
con una faja azul y una rosa amarilla en cada pie, el color de su rosario.”
Hubo 18 apariciones, la última ocurrió el 16 de Julio de 1858.
El 11 de febrero es también la celebración del Día Mundial del enfermo,
todos los católicos deben considerar “la cercana conexión que existe entre
el misterio de la Eucaristía, el rol de María en el plan de salvación y la
realidad del dolor humano y el sufrimiento."
El Papa Benedicto dijo en 2008, que "María es el modelo de total
abandono a los deseos de Dios" y siguiendo a su ejemplo, los cristianos
aprendemos a poner nuestra entera existencia en las manos de Dios,
incluyendo las "alegrías y penas, esperanzas y desilusiones en una
conciencia que pruebas, dolor y sufrimiento enriquecen el significado de
nuestro peregrinar por la tierra."
María está cerca a todos quienes sufren, acompañándolos como ella
estuvo al lado de su hijo cuando el sufría.
En el culto a Jesús en la Eucaristía, "nos confiamos a Él con la esperanza
de no desilusionarlo," dijo el Papa Benedicto, y recibiendo la Comunión
"nosotros lo recibimos como la medicina de la inmortalidad que nos cura
el cuerpo y el espíritu."
Siguiendo a Jesús e imitando a María, los católicos debemos aprender a
dar la vida por otros, especialmente por aquellos que sufren y en quienes
"la comunidad Cristiana reconoce la cara de su Señor," dijo el Papa
Benedicto.
"Misteriosamente unidos a Cristo, uno, quien sufre con amor y dócil
abandono a los deseos divinos, empieza a ser un vivo ofrecimiento por la
salvación del mundo," agregó.
"La vocación de cada cristiano es verdaderamente la de ser, junto a Jesús,
el pan partido para la vida del mundo”, dijo el Papa.

WITHOUT YOU WE ARE NOTHING!
In the first reading from the Book of Job, he describes how he is living
through months of misery. Depressing, painful and long, like no other in
the Sacred Scriptures. He experiences the crucible of happiness. What
today we call our challenges and difficulties whether in our personal life,
school, workforce, or family, he lived through all of it. The devil challenges
God in saying that when Job feels he has fallen in the abyss he will
somehow turn away from his faith and away from God. God accepts this challenge because
he knows the faith of His servant.
This is where Job begins to question the feelings that this suffering has generated; the
meaning of life, friendship, family, and of who truly loves him. These are questions that are
truly valid in the present day when we feel in such need for affection, but yet we avoid it,
hiding in our own conflicts, an inner world that overwhelms us and above all a monitor that
we cannot ignore, that we cannot stop watching…
Job feels the hand of God at every turn. His family, his possessions, even his own well
being is put aside. He is fighting against all to remain faithful. For certain he feels pain and
agony but he has HOPE. He has lost all else.
In the same way Paul, who was a rare man, understood the meaning of life in the
preaching of the Gospel: Good News, liberation through Christ Jesus. Only in Him can we
find PEACE.
In the Gospel of Mark, Jesus continues healing His people, not of their humanity, but of
those diseases that prevent a normal lifestyle. We are in such need of this healing. We all
resemble in someway the protagonists that play an important part in the Scriptures. At
times we suffer like Job; at times we feel abandoned, or worse yet, we ignore the one who is
in need or waits for us; at times we allow that bad spirit in us to come out and play with
temptation or we try to tempt others. It is possible that we allow anger and lies to transform
us into a horrible person. At other times we feel like Paul, with the strength of God in us
and the desire to save ourselves and others for Christ.
There are times when we are sick and we believe that our illness or debility is colossal but
no matter what our situation we must always remember that it is Christ who is on our side
at all times in our life, from the rising of the sun to the setting (Psalm 113:3), from the very
hairs of your head (Luke 12:7), in every germ of the earth and in every leave that falls.
Simon’s mother in law gets out of bed as the fever leaves her and she does something with
her life. This is what we need in our life, that active dimension of gratitude. Let your
parents know that you love them, let your significant other know that you love them, let
your neighbor know that you are able to help them, let your parish know you exist, and
your children know that you need them. Multitudes of people wanted to get near Jesus not
only out of curiosity but because being near Him they felt healthy, saved, and holy… Who
do you look for? Who looks for you?
My blessings.

LETTURA DEL GIORNO
MINISTERO GUARITORE
Durante il ministero di Gesu’ “egli
curo’ molti che erano malati con varie
malattie, e scaccio’ molti demoni.”
Questo e’ il caso nel Vangelo di oggi.
Gesu’ soddisfa la visione del Salmo 147: “Egli
guarisce gli affranti e fascia le loro ferite”.
Gesu’ sapeva, pero’, che non poteva guarire tutte le
malattie del mondo. Per quanti ne possa guarire e per
quante ore egli potesse ministrare, ci sarebbero
sempre piu’ sofferenti come Giobbe che desiderava
il suo contatto guaritore. La sua missione principale
non era di sbarazzare il mondo di ogni sofferenza. Il
suo “scopo” era di predicare l’avvento del regno di
Dio che guarisce, si, ma infine trascende e trasforma
le sofferenze terrestri. Con San Paolo, Gesu’ avrebbe
potuto dire, “Guai a me se non predico” quella buona
novella.
ASHES FOR THE HOMEBOUND

PARISH GOAL: $45,000.00
Next weekend is Pledge Sunday
for the 2015 Annual Catholic
Appeal throughout the Diocese of Trenton. Each year
the Bishop seeks the support of all of the members of
the diocese to further the work of our ministries. Each
of us has a vital part in all we do in Christ’s name, and
each of us can share in all we do with a gift to the
Annual Catholic Appeal. Our single Act of Faith
propels the works of love that build up our Church.
You make that happen with a generous gift to the
ACA. This year Our Lady of the Angels Parish’s
share of the goal is $45,000.00. Please be generous.
We truly need everyone to participate. Thank you!
LENTEN REGULATIONS
Here is what the Catholic Church in the United States
asks of us as baptized Catholics:
1.
The days of fast (only one meal) and
abstinence (no meat) are ASH WEDNESDAY
(18th February 2015) and GOOD FRIDAY (3rd
April 2015)
2.
The other Fridays of Lent are DAYS OF
ABSTINENCE (No meat).
Those between the ages of 18 and 59 are obliged to
fast (only one full meal) as above. From the age of 14,
people are also obliged to abstain (no meat: this
obligation prohibits the eating of meat, but not eggs,
milk products or condiments of any kind, even though
made from animal fat). The obligation, the privilege
really, of receiving the Eucharist at least once a year -- often called “Easter duty” --- for those in the state
of grace should still be fulfilled during the period
from the First Sunday of Lent, February 22nd to
Trinity Sunday, May 31st, 2015.
O come, let us worship God and bow low before the God
who made us, for he is the Lord our God.
(Psalm 95 (94):6-7)

READING OF THE DAY
HEALING MINISTRY
During Jesus’ ministry “he cured
many who were sick with various
diseases, and he drove out many
demons.” This is the case in today’s
Gospel. Jesus fulfills the vision of Psalm 147: “He
heals the brokenhearted and binds up their
wounds.”
Jesus knew, however, that he couldn’t
possibly heal all the illness in the world. No matter
how many people he cured or how many hours he
ministered, there always would be more suffering
people like Job who craved his healing touch. His
primary mission was not to rid the world of all
suffering. His “purpose” was to preach the coming
of the reign of God that heals, yes, but ultimately
transcends and transforms earthly suffering. With
Paul, Jesus could have said, “Woe to me if I do not
preach” that good news.
TODAY’S READINGS: First Reading: Job 7:14 Second Reading: 1 Corinthians 9:16-19 Gospel:
Mark 1:29-29
Job’s cry of hopelessness stands in marked
contrast to the hope of those who put their trust in
Jesus, who “heals the broken hearted and binds
up their wounds”. Such are the blessings of the
good news. From ORDO 2015
REFLECTION QUESTIONS OF THE WEEK
ADULT: Name a time this past week when you
shared the Good News with a coworker, a
neighbor, or a family member.
CHILD: What can you do to help your friends and
classmates know more about Jesus?
ATTENTION: PARKING AT IMMACULATE
CONCEPTION CHURCH
Park only in the designated parking spaces or your
vehicle will be towed by the company or fined by the
Police. If you attend mass at ICC, we remind you there
is an ample parking lot entering from Division St with
an easy access to the side ramp entrance. Please use this
parking lot instead to allow visitors to park in the
Chestnut Avenue one.
Thank you for your collaboration.

SIN TI NADA SOMOS!
Job en la primera lectura, describe como ha vivido un tiempo difícil de la
misma. Deprimente, doloroso y largo, como nadie más en las Sagradas
Escrituras. Experimentando el crisol de la fidelidad. Lo que hoy nosotros
llamamos las pruebas y dificultades personales, escolares, laborales o
familiares, él todas las vivió… El Diablo le apuesta a Dios que si Job se siente
suficientemente caído él clamará de alguna manera a la incredulidad y
renegara de Dios. Dios acepta la prueba pues conoce la fidelidad de su siervo.
Es aquí donde Job comienza a preguntarse sobre el sentido que el sufrimiento puede generar,
sobre el significado de la vida, de la amistad, de la familia, de quien en verdad lo ama.
Preguntas muy válidas para nuestro presente, donde nos sentimos tan necesitados de afecto, y
sin embargo huimos de él, escondiéndonos en nuestros propios conflictos, un mundo interior
que nos agobia y sobre todo una pantalla a la cual no podemos dejar sola, no podemos dejar
de mirar….
Job siente la mano de Dios en toda circunstancia. Su familia, sus bienes e incluso su propio
bienestar físico se han eliminado. Él está luchando para permanecer fiel. Claro que siente el
dolor y la agonía, pero tiene ESPERANZA. Ha perdido todo demás.
De igual manera Pablo que era un hombre poco común encontró el sentido de la vida en la
predicación del Evangelio: Buena Nueva liberación a través de Jesucristo. Sólo en Él se puede
encontrar PAZ.
Jesús en el Evangelio sigue curando los seres humanos, no de su humanidad, sino de aquellas
enfermedades que les impiden su forma habitual de vida. Cuánta de ésta sanación
necesitamos nosotros.
Creo que todos tenemos un poco de todos los personajes que hoy juegan un papel importante
en las Escrituras. A veces sufrimos como Job; a veces nos sentimos abandonados, o peor aún
dejamos a un lado a quien más necesita o quien espera por nosotros; a veces se nos sale el
diablo que tenemos dentro y jugamos con nuestras tentaciones o tentamos a otros, quizá
también la ira o la mentira nos transforma en este ser horrendo. En otro tiempo nos sentimos
como Pablo, con una fuerza de Dios y un gran deseo de salvarnos y salvar almas para Cristo.
En otras ocasiones, estamos enfermos, creemos que nuestra enfermedad o nuestra debilidad
es más grande que nosotros mismos…Sea cual fuere nuestra situación, siempre tenemos que
reconocer que es Cristo quien está de nuestra parte en todas las situaciones de nuestra vida,
desde donde sale el sol hasta el ocaso (Salmo 113, 3), desde nuestros pies hasta cada uno de los
pelos de nuestra cabeza (Lc. 12, 7,) en cada germen de la tierra y también en la simple caída
de una hoja (Mt. 10, 29).
La suegra de Simón se levanta de la cama luego que la fiebre la abandona, y empieza a hacer
algo con su vida. Eso es lo que a veces nos falta, esa dimensión activa de la gratitud. Déjale
saber a tus padres que los quieres, a tu pareja que la amas, a tus vecinos que estás dispuesto a
ayudarles, a tu parroquia que existes, a tus hijos que los necesitas. A Jesús lo buscaban las
multitudes, no solo por curiosidad sino porque al estar cerca de Él, se sentían sanos, salvos y
santos… Y a ti, ¿quién te busca?…Y tú, ¿a quién buscas?
Mi bendición,
Padre Cesar Rubiano.

LECTURA DEL DÍA
MINISTERIO DE SANACIÓN
Durante su ministerio, Jesús
“curó a muchos enfermos de
diversos males y expulsó a muchos
demonios”. Así es el caso en el Evangelio de hoy.
Jesús cumple la visión del Salmo 147: “Él sana
los corazones destrozados y venda sus heridas.”
Jesús sabía, sin embargo, que nunca podría
sanar todas las enfermedades del mundo. Por
mucha gente que curara o muchas horas que
dedicara al ministerio, siempre habría más
personas afligidas como Job, ansiosos de su toque
sanador. Su misión principal no era la de erradicar
todo sufrimiento del mundo. Su “obligación” era
predicar la venida del Reino de Dios que sana, sí,
pero en último caso, trasciende y transforma todo
sufrimiento humano. Con Pablo, Jesús pudiera
decir, “Ay de mí si no anuncio” esa Buena Nueva.

Queridos feligreses:
Es impresionante la preocupación y el cariño que he
recibido de todas partes de la diócesis, incluyendo su
parroquia. He recibido más de 10 mil tarjetas, cartas,
correos electrónicos, mensajes a través de videos,
regalos e innumerables oraciones desde que estuve
hospitalizado y durante esta larga recuperación. Se me
haría imposible contestarles a cada uno personalmente
por más que quisiera hacerlo. Su párroco me ha
permitido ofrecerles las gracias de todo corazón a
través de su boletín parroquial. Estoy tan agradecido
con ustedes por ese amor que me han demostrado. El
futuro brilla y espero estar con el pueblo ya para el
Domingo de Ramos. Mis oraciones están con ustedes.
Dios los bendiga.

5th Sunday in Ordinary Time
My dear parishioners:
I have been overwhelmed by the outpouring of love
and concern I have received from all over our
Diocese, including your parish. I have received over
10,000 cards, letters, emails, video messages, gifts and
countless prayers during my hospitalization and
ongoing recovery. I could not begin to respond to
each one personally, as much as I wish I could. Your
pastor has allowed me to offer my heartfelt thanks in
your parish bulletin. I am most grateful to you for
your loving concern. The future looks good and I
hope to be back in public by Palm Sunday. My
thankful prayers are with you. God bless you.

FEAST OF OUR LADY OF LOURDES
WORLD DAY OF THE SICK
On Wednesday, February 11th, the Church will
celebrate the feast of Our Lady of Lourdes. We
all know the story - on February 11, 1858, a
young woman named Bernadette, saw an
apparition of a “Lady dressed in white with a blue
sash and a yellow rose on each foot, the color of
her rosary.” There were 18 apparitions in all, the
last one occurring on July 16, 1858.
February 11th is also the celebration of the World
Day of the Sick. All Catholics need to consider
"the close connection that exists between the
mystery of the Eucharist, the role of Mary in the
plan of salvation and the reality of human pain
and suffering." Pope Benedict said, in 2008, that,
"Mary is the model of total abandonment to the
will of God" and, in following her example,
Christians learn to place their entire existence in
God's hands, including their "joys and sorrows,
hopes and disappointments in an awareness that
trials, pain and suffering enrich the meaning of
our pilgrimage on earth."
Mary is near to all who suffer, standing alongside
them as she stood alongside her son as he
suffered.
In worshiping Jesus in the Eucharist, "we entrust
ourselves to him as the hope that does not
disappoint," Pope Benedict said, and in receiving
Communion "we receive him as the medicine of
immortality that heals the body and the spirit."
Following Jesus and imitating Mary, Catholics
must learn to give their lives for others, especially
those who are suffering and in whom "the
Christian community recognizes the face of its
Lord," Pope Benedict said.
"Mysteriously united to Christ, one, who suffers
with love and docile abandonment to the divine
will, becomes a living offering for the salvation of
the world," he said.
"The vocation of every Christian is truly that of
being, together with Jesus, bread that is broken
for the life of the world," the pope said.

IS GOD CALLING YOU?
Vocational discernment groups meet to assist young
men who are discerning the possibility that God may
be calling them to a life of priestly ministry. These
groups are designed to explore a priestly vocation
with other like-minded men through prayer and
sharing vocation stories and experiences. The group
meetings are not meant to convince anyone that the
priesthood is their vocation. They are designed to
assist you in discovering if the priesthood is your true
vocation and build your relationship with Christ along
the way. If you are a faithful, single Roman Catholic
man, between the ages of 18 and 40, and are asking
yourself whether God is calling you to be a priest, you
are cordially invited to attend this month’s
discernment on February 22, from 4:00PM to 6:00PM
at St. James Parish, 115 E Delaware Ave, Pennington
NJ. Join Rev. Msgr. Michael J. Walsh, as he shares
his experiences of the priesthood, followed by prayer
and conclude with conversation and a meal.
Please register with the Dioceses of Trenton Vocation
Office at [email protected] or by
