Today's readings are a nice shorthand catechism of what our baptized lives mean. As Noah passed through the waters of the flood to a covenant with God, so did we enter into a covenant, a promised relationship with God through our baptism. The psalm reminds us that if we truly keep the covenant, the way of life God expects us to follow will not be a burden, but a source of love and truth. Peter's letter gives one explanation of what our baptism means: it is an appeal that we make to God for a clear conscience. How do we obtain this clear conscience? The words that Jesus proclaims immediately following his temptation show us the way: "Repent and believe in the gospel." It might be a good spiritual exercise to keep these readings before us throughout the entire season of Lent, a means to help us return to a life lived in our baptismal promises. Together in Mission "Be Imitators of Me" 1 Corinthians 11 “Without the generous support of the Together in Mission donors the future of Nativity School and other schools like ours would be unknown,” Antonio Felix - Principal, Nativity School “For 8 years now, we have had the Blessed Sacrament exposed during the week, and every Friday for the entire night. The funds from Together in Mission has helped us with repairs, the chapel that give our community a place to pray and allows us to help the needy.” Fr. Guillermo Martínez - Pastor, Our Lady Of Solitude “Dolores Church is the only church with a homeless shelter open 365 days of the year. Many people in Los Angeles are one paycheck away from becoming homeless. You think it can’t happen to you, then it does…we wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for Together in Mission.” Ellie Hidalgo - Pastoral Associate, Dolores Mission Church We want to thank all of you who have given generously to Together in Mission in past years. These funds have literally helped not only to provide ministry, but also to keep the doors open in 80 parishes and 63 schools throughout the Archdiocese of Los Angeles supported by the campaign. Your gift enables us to provide essential resources and ministries that enrich parish life, strengthen families, advance Church leadership and inspire and educate future generations of our faith. If you have not made a pledge/commitment for this year's campaign, we ask you to please consider doing so. Envelopes are available in the Parish Center and in the entrances of the church. If you already received a pledge form from the Archdiocese please feel free to drop it in the collection or mail it to the Parish Center at any time.

Las lecturas de hoy son como un catecismo abreviado de lo que nuestras vidas de bautizados significan. Tal como Noé pasó por las aguas del diluvio a una alianza con Dios, así también nosotros entramos en una alianza, una relación con Dios prometida por nuestro Bautismo. El salmo nos recuerda que si realmente vivimos la alianza, el modo de vida que Dios quiere que vivamos no va a ser una carga, sino una fuente de amor y verdad. La carta de Pedro ofrece una explicación de lo que significa nuestro bautismo: es una plegaria a Dios pidiendo una buena conciencia. ¿Cómo obtenemos esta buena conciencia? Las palabras que Jesús proclama justo después de su tentación nos señala el camino: "Arrepiéntanse y crean en el Evangelio". Podría ser un buen ejercicio espiritual mantener estas lecturas a nuestro alcance durante todo el tiempo de Cuaresma, un medio para ayudarnos a volver a una vida vivida según nuestras promesas bautismales. Unidos en Misión "Sean Imitadores de Mi" 1 Corintios, 11 “Sin el apoyo generoso de los donantes de Together in Mission el futuro de Nativity School y otras escuelas como la nuestra sería desconocido.” Antonio Felix - Director, Nativity School “En los últimos 8 años hemos tenido el Santísimo Sacramento expuesto durante la semana, y todos los viernes por toda la noche. Los fondos de “Unidos en Mis-ión” nos han ayudado con las reparaciones, la capilla que le da a nuestra comun-idad un espacio para rezar y nos permiten ayudar a los más necesitados”. Padre Guillermo Martinez - Parroco, Nuestra Señora de la Soledad “La Iglesia Dolores es la única iglesia con un refugio para personas sin hogar ab-ierto los 365 días del año. Muchas personas en Los Angeles están a punto de quedarse sin casa. Piensas que a ti no te puede ocurrir, y de pronto sucede… no estaríamos aquí si no fuese por “Unidos en Misión”.” Ellie Hidalgo - Asociada Pastoral, Iglesia de Misión Dolores Queremos agradecer a todos ustedes que han dado generosamente a Unidos en Mision en los últimos años. Estos fondos han ayudado, literalmente, no sólo para proporcionar el ministerio, sino también para mantener las puertas abiertas en 80 parroquias y 63 escuelas en toda la Arquidiócesis de Los Angeles con el apoyo de la campaña.

Child abduction: taking action A recent study of the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children® revealed that 83% of children who escaped their wouldbe abductors kicked, yelled, and pulled away to escape. Teach your child these and other abduction prevention skills, such as: Asking for permission before changing plans; asking for permission before approaching or getting into vehicles with anyone; recognizing the tricks would-be abductors use, such as offering rides or asking for help; telling a trusted adult whenever anything or anyone makes them uncomfortable. When it comes to keeping your child safe, YOU are your child’s best resource. The more you know about abduction prevention, the better protected your child will be. Use your knowledge to make conversations about personal safety a regular part of your family’s routine.

Enseñe a su hijo estas y otras habilidades para prevenir el secuestro, como: Pedir permiso antes de cambiar planes; pedir permiso antes de aproximarse o meterse en vehículos con alguien; reconocer los trucos que posibles abductores usan, como ofrecer llevarlos o pedir ayuda; decirle a un adulto de confianza cuando algo o alguien los hace sentir incómodos. Cuando se trata de mantener seguro a su hijo(a), USTED es el mejor recurso para él o ella. Mientras más usted sabe cómo prevenir la abducción, mejor protegido estará su niño(a).
