Any illness was thought to be the result of sinfulness, either the sins of the sufferer or of his or her parents and ancestors. People with mental illnesses were believed to be possessed by evil spirits, and they too were shunned and driven out of towns and villages to fend for themselves. These attitudes were common throughout the ancient world. The open sores of skin diseases and the strange behavior of mentally ill persons were a stigma all could recognize. “Stigma” is a Greek word that originally referred to a tattoo or brand that was cut or burned into the skin of criminals, slaves, or traitors in order to identify them as blemished or morally polluted persons. Many of us today fear people with diseases such as AIDS; similarly, we are uncomfortable around someone who behaves oddly because of a mental illness. Those who have such illnesses often suffer more from people’s negative attitudes toward them than from the condition itself. In today’s Gospel we hear about Jesus’ encounter with a leper. We see that Jesus does not turn away from this suffering man, but walks toward him. He talks to him, takes pity on him, and stretches out a healing hand. Today, the Catholic Church is a world-wide provider of care for suffering people, including those with HIV/AIDS and mental illness, through Catholic hospitals and clinics, organizations such as Catholic Charities, and the hospices of Blessed Mother Teresa’s Missionaries of Charity, to name but a few. There are many opportunities in our local communities for us to step in and help. Let’s be like Jesus and walk toward the ones in need.

Stations of the Cross Sponsored by the Knights of Columbus Fasting and Abstinence Guidelines Fasting and abstinence are obligations for all Catholics during the season of Lent. They begin the process of purifying and making us receptive to receive the Lord. At the same time the spiritual practice is not for everyone. FASTING: Fasting was recommended by Jesus both by example and teaching. The least we are to do when we fast is to eat one meal at midday and two small snacks during the day. Ash Wednesday and Good Friday are fast days for the universal church. ABSTINENCE: Abstinence means not eating meat, meat products, and poultry. It is meant to allow us to eat simpler, basic meals. Ash Wednesday, and every Friday during Lent, and Good Friday are days of abstinence. AGES AND HEALTH: All persons who are in good health and have completed their fourteenth year (the day after one’s 14th birthday) are asked to abstain from meat on the days mentioned above. All adults (those who have completed their 18th year) are asked to fast up to the beginning of their 60th year. If one’s health is not good, no matter one’s age, they should not fast or abstain from nutritious foods but should spend the days of fasting and abstinence doing other spiritual practices (for example, reading the Bible, praying the Rosary, doing acts of kindness for others). Notice: The parish office will be CLOSED on Monday, February 16th, 2015 in observance of Presidents’ Day. Aviso: La oficina parroquial estará CERRADA el lunes, 16 de febrero del 2015 en observación del día de los presidentes. Stephen Ministry You may wonder why we Stephen Ministers often quote passages from Scripture, psalms, or direct quotes from Jesus or one of the apostles including St. Paul. Our ministry is faith and scripture-based as our own faith is scripture-based. We reach out through God’s assistance to those who are hurting, providing them with emotional and spiritual care. We try to find passages that will be encouraging, inspiring, and meaningful, leading to greater awareness and knowledge of God and our faith, helping our care receivers and our readers form a more personal relationship with Him. On January 4th we celebrated Epiphany, a glorious event for those of us who are not Jesus. As Fathers Santos told us, Epiphany is the manifestation of Jesus as Messiah of Israel, Son of God and Savior of the World, with all implies, God's great love for us and all people with His mercy and grace extending beyond Israel to all nations and people throughout the world. St. Paul, a Jew prayed for the Romans (his gentile converts) and for us living today, “May the God of Hope fill you with you joy and peace in believing, so that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit (Romans 15:1-13) and in Romans 8:14-17, “All who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. The Spirit Himself gives witness with our spirit that we are children of God.

Sexto Domingo de Tiempo Ordinario ESTIGMATIZADOS Antiguamente a cualquier enfermedad de la piel se le llamaba lepra y a los leprosos se les forzaba a vivir en penuria y retirados del resto de la comunidad. Además, cualquier enfermedad era considerada como resultado del pecado, ya fuera del pecado propio o de los padres, o antepasados. Se creía que las personas con enfermedades mentales estaban poseídas por espíritus malignos, y también a éstas se les rechazaba y se les forzaba a salir de su pueblo o ciudad y a arreglárselas por sí mismas. Todo esto era lo común por todo el mundo antiguo. Las llagas consecuentes de las enfermedades de la piel y los comportamientos extraños de los enfermos mentales eran estigmas que todos reconocían. “Estigma” viene de una palabra griega que originalmente se refería a un tatuaje con que se marcaba la piel de los criminales, esclavos o traidores a fin de identificarlos como personas de mala reputación o moralidad corrompida. Hoy muchos de nosotros sentimos aversión por las personas afectadas por el SIDA e igualmente nos sentimos incómodos en presencia de alguien que se comporta de una manera rara debido a una enfermedad mental. Las personas afectadas por tales enfermedades a menudo sufren más por las actitudes negativas de otras personas que por la misma enfermedad. En el Evangelio de hoy escuchamos el encuentro de Jesús con un leproso. Vemos que Jesús no le da la espalda a este hombre que sufre, sino que se dirige a él; le habla y tiene compasión de él, y le extiende una mano que cura. Actualmente la Iglesia católica provee asistencia a través de todo el mundo para las personas que sufren, incluso las afectadas por el VIH/ SIDA y enfermedades mentales, por medio de hospitales y clínicas, y organizaciones tales como Caridades Católicas y las residencias para desahuciados de las Misioneras de la Caridad de la Madre Teresa, entre otros. Existen muchas oportunidades en nuestras comunidades locales para nosotros ayudar. Seamos como Jesús dirigiéndonos hacia los necesitados. 15 de febrero del 2015 3 Reunion mundial sobre la familia 2015 Philadelphia En preparación para esta reunión Mundial sobre la familia existe una encuesta puesta por el Vaticano para reunir opiniones de todas las personas, cualquiera que sea su estatus y relación con la Iglesia.

Cuando hablamos de los niños no nacidos, no estamos hablando de "posibles" niños; estamos hablando de niños que ya están vivos.
