Un barco de pasajeros fue destruido en el mar durante una tormenta. Solo
dos hombres sobrevivieron y pudieron nadar hasta una pequeña isla
desierta. Sin saber qué hacer, decidieron rezarle a Dios, pero querían
saber cuál de sus oraciones sería la más poderosa. Así pues, decidieron
dividir el territorio entre dos y quedarse en lados opuestos de la isla.
Lo primero que pidió el primer hombre fue comida. Al día siguiente hubo
un árbol lleno de fruta en su lado de la isla y él pudo comer. En el otro
lado de la isla el hombre no tenía qué comer.
Después de una semana el primer hombre se sentía solo y de nuevo rezó
para pedir una esposa. Al día siguiente, hubo otro naufragio y la única
sobreviviente fue una mujer que pudo nadar hasta el lado de la isla del
primer hombre. En el otro lado de la isla, todavía nada.
Luego el primer hombre rezó para pedir techo, ropa y más comida. Cómo
magia, todo se le dio. En el otro lado de la isla el segundo hombre
todavía no había obtenido nada. Entonces el primer hombre pidió un
barco para poder abandonar la isla él y su mujer. En la madrugada
¡encontró un barco atracado al costado de la isla!
Ese día él y su esposa abordaron el barco para irse de la isla. Él consideró
que el segundo hombre no merecía recibir las bendiciones de Dios ya que
Dios no le había contestado ninguna de sus peticiones y lo dejó en la isla.
El barco estaba a punto de salir cuando el primer hombre oyó una voz
vibrante del cielo que preguntaba, “¿por qué abandonas a tu compañero
en la isla?” El hombre le contestó, “Mis bendiciones me pertenecen solo
a mí, ya que yo fui quien rezó por ellas. Sus peticiones no fueron
contestadas.”
La voz le contestó, “¡Estás equivocado! Él sólo tuvo una oración la cual
le contesté. Si no fuera por eso, tú jamás hubieras recibido ningunas de
mis bendiciones.” El hombre le preguntó, “Dime, ¿qué fue lo que pidió
para yo deberle? La voz le contestó, “El oró para que todas tus peticiones
fueran contestadas.”
Puede ser que todas nuestras bendiciones no sean fruto de nuestras
oraciones sino de alguien que ora por nosotros.
Cuando Jesús murió en la cruz, ¡Él estaba pensando en todos nosotros!

3rd Sunday of Lent

Since the beginning of our Lenten journey, with the sign of the cross on our
foreheads, we heard, -at least in our Christian circles-, the importance of fasting,
prayer and sacrifice. All our life we want and we believe that our lives can be
better. To achieve our goals of holiness, we need motivation and support.
But why do we find it so difficult to achieve that which means “less”, focus on
God “and” sacrifice? Perhaps the answer lies in our individualism. The thought
we alone can achieve everything dominates us. This certainly limits not only the
grace of God, but also the encouragement and helping hand of the one close to
me.
Some of you have already heard the news, about the tragic accident that a member of our parish
family suffered, on December 14, 2014. It was a regular shopping day that changed the life of one
of our students for First Communion Jose Rivas, who lost his toes on one foot. Everything
happened so fast at that time ... First responders were there in no time. Now almost 3 months
later, we can all reflect on how our life can change in a matter of moments. This week Jose and his
dear mother came to our parish, I was very surprised to see the boy walking, because last last
week when I visited him he was using a wheelchair.
The reason for his visit will be amazing for many of you.
Jose, his parents, and siblings, want to support the "WALK
OF HOPE” sponsored by Catholic Charities Diocese of
Trenton, which will be held Saturday, March 28, 2015, and
whose goals are to reduce poverty, promote recovery, and
strengthen families.
Catholic Charities has been a trusted resource since 1913,
making sure no one in crisis has had to go it alone. So, don’t
participate in the Walk of Hope alone. Invite family, friends,
neighbors and co-workers to join our team Our Lady of the
Angel “JOSE RIVAS” by making a donation. We in our
parish have been blessed with the presence of one of its most important divisions, "El Centro",
under the direction of Mr. Roberto Ramirez, where a large number of our parishioners find the
necessary response to their needs.
Achieving our goals is not as difficult when we have the support of a helping hand, or a serious
and responsible Institution on Christian principles as its foundation. Jose and his family, even in
the midst of pain and suffering want to support those who are less fortunate than themselves.
When we feel that the community is united in a cause like the "Walk of Hope" we know we are
not alone. Doing something for others is not just a Lenten duty; it is a personal and right
decision.
That is why we want to invite you to join this cause. Help Catholic Charities, Diocese of Trenton,
to continue its mission of reducing poverty, promoting recovery and strengthening families by
joining the Walk of Hope. They provide everything from housing and food to addiction treatment
and domestic violence services to all in need regardless of religious background and assist more
than 100,000 people each year in four counties, including Mercer County. Below you will find the
link to make your registration and walk with us under our Team Leader Jose Rivas! A Portion of
the proceeds will go to "El Centro". Questions? Contact Jenn Leip at 609-394-5181, ext. 1137. You
can also register next week after all our weekend Masses.

WAY OF THE CROSS
(BILINGUAL)
6:30PM Every Friday during Lent
Immaculate Conception Church
The Lectio Divina will be held in the
sacristy at ICC on Fridays during Lent. English at 6pm
before the Way of the Cross, Spanish after the service.
LENTEN REGULATIONS
Here is what the Catholic Church in the United
States asks of us as baptized Catholics:
1.
The next day of fast (only one meal) and
abstinence (no meat) is 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.
MEMORIAL OF ST. PATRICK
The Parish Community of Our Lady
of the Angels will celebrate the

Il tuo volto io cerco, o Signore.
Non nascondermi il tuo volto. (Sal 27,8-9)

IL SIGNIFICATO DEL
NOSTRO
LA VIA DELLA LIBERTA’
La maggior parte di noi, se ci fosse
chiesto “Appare nella Bibbia la frase
“I
Dieci
Comandamenti”,
probabilmente sbaglieremmo, perche’ la risposta
e’ “no”. “I Dieci Comandamenti” e’ una frase
dopo la Bibbia, una frase che si sviluppo’ insieme
ad un’immagine di Dio come poliziotto che non si
trova nel brano di oggi dall’Esodo
La chiave e’ la prima frase: Dio e’ colui che ci
libera dalla schiavitu’; seguire la legge o i comandi
di Dio e’ la nostra via verso la liberta’. I
cambiamoneta che Gesu’ scaccio’ dal tempio non
trasgredivano alcuno dei comandamenti, ma
nemmeno aiutavano il popolo a trovare la via della
liberta’ quando veniva a pregare nel Tempio.
Questa e’ un’importante lezione della Quaresima
per noi. Dobbiamo fermarci dal chiederci se
trasgrediamo o no specifiche regole ed esaminare
la nostra vita per vedere se veramente stiamo
seguendo una via verso la liberta’ di Dio attraverso
Cristo.
DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME

READING OF THE DAY
THE PATH TO FREEDOM
Most of us, if we were asked
“Does the phrase ‘the Ten
Commandments’ appear in the
Bible?” would likely get it wrong,
because the answer is “no.” “The
Ten Commandments” is a post biblical, phrase that
developed along with an image of God as police
officer that is not found in today’s passage from
Exodus. The first phrase is the key: God is the one
who brings us out of slavery; following God’s law
or commands is our path to freedom. The
moneychangers whom Jesus drove from the temple
were not explicitly breaking any of the
commandments, but neither were they helping
people to find God’s path to freedom as they came
to worship at the temple. This is an important
Lenten lesson for us. We need to stop asking
ourselves whether or not we are breaking specific
rules or regulations and instead examine our lives
to see if we are truly following a path to God’s
freedom through Christ
Reading: Job 7:1-4; Second Reading: Corinthians
9:16-19; Gospel: Mark 1:29-39
The law liberates and leads us to freedom. It is to
be trusted for it is a source of wisdom. Jesus
speaks of the ultimate freedom to be won for us by
his being raised up. He is the sign of the power
and wisdom of God. From ORDO 2015
REFLECTION QUESTIONS OF THE WEEK
ADULT: What kinds of ager are justified for a
follower of Jesus?
CHILD: Why was Jesus angry? How do you show
respect for God’s house?
My eyes are always on the Lord, for he rescues my feet
from the snare. Turn to me and have mercy on me, for I
am alone and poor. (Cf. Psalm 25 (24):15-16

Desde el comienzo de nuestro caminar en Cuaresma, con el signo de la cruz
en nuestra frente, hemos escuchado, -al menos en nuestro ámbito cristiano’, la
importancia del ayuno, la oración y el sacrificio. Todos en nuestra vida
queremos y creemos que podemos ser mejores. Para alcanzar nuestras metas
de santidad, debemos igualmente manejar ésta motivación.
Pero por qué se nos hace tan duro lograr aquello que implica “dejar de”,
“responder a Dios”, y “sacrificarnos”? Quizá la respuesta está en nuestro
individualismo. El pensar que por sí solos podremos lograr todo aquello que nos
propongamos. Esto limita ciertamente no sólo la Gracia de Dios, sino también el apoyo y la
mano amiga de quien está a mi lado.
Algunos de ustedes se enteraron por las noticias o los periódicos, del trágico accidente que
sufrió una familia miembros de nuestra Parroquia, el pasado 14 de diciembre. Un día común
de compras, cambió la vida del niño José, quien perdió los dedos en uno de sus pies. Todo fue
rápido en ese momento…La pronta atención brindada fueron decisivos. Ahora casi 3 meses
después, todos podemos reflexionar en como un instante nos cambia la vida. Esta semana
José y su querida mamá vinieron a nuestra Parroquia, cuál fue mi sorpresa al ver al niño
caminando, pues hasta la semana anterior seguía usando su silla de ruedas.
La razón de su visita será increíble para muchos de ustedes. José, sus padres y hermanos,
quieren apoyar la “CAMINATA DE LA ESPERANZA”, de Las Caridades Católicas Diócesis
de Trenton, que se realizará el próximo Sábado, 28 de marzo 2015, y cuyos logros son reducir
la pobreza, promover la recuperación del individuo en todos los aspectos y fortalecer a las
familias. Podrán registrarse la próxima semana después de Misa.
Caridades Católicas, desde 1913, quiere seguir devolviendo la confianza para que aquellos que
sufren una crisis, no sientan que están solos. De ahí, se
desarrollaron muchísimos programas para proporcionar
alimentos, asistencia financiera, consejería y apoyo individual
y familiar. Nosotros en nuestra Parroquia hemos sido
bendecidos con la presencia de uno de sus proyectos más
importantes, con “El Centro”, bajo la dirección del Sr.
Roberto Hernández, en donde un gran número de nosotros
hemos podido encontrar una respuesta oportuna y necesaria
en nuestra vida.
Lograr nuestras metas no es tan difícil cuando contamos con
el apoyo de una mano amiga, o una Institución seria, responsable y con principios cristianos.
José y su familia, aún en medio del dolor y el sufrimiento que continua, quieren apoyar a
aquellos que son menos afortunados que ellos. Cuando sentimos que la comunidad se une en
una causa como la “Caminata de la Esperanza”, sabemos que no estamos solos. Dios no nos
creó como islas, sino como un CUERPO. Hacer algo por otros no solo es un deber cuaresmal,
es un bien personal. La fuerza que crea una fe colectiva es mayor que la de un esfuerzo propio.
Es por esto que los quiero invitar para que se unan a ésta causa. Aquí encontrarán el link para
que hagan su registración y caminen con nosotros y nuestro Capitán Jose Rivas, por qué otros
necesitan tener esperanza! Parte de los recaudos se destinarán a las obras y labor de “El
Centro”. Cualquier pregunta pueden llamar a nuestra oficina o a las oficinas de El Centro al
609-394-2056. http://cctrenton.cctrenton.dojiggy.com/

NORMAS DE LA IGLESIA DURANTE LA
CUARESMA
Este tiempo que culmina el Jueves Santo (2 de abril),
es un tiempo de penitencia, sacrificio, oración y
caridad cristiana. Las siguientes son normas
específicas de nuestra Diócesis durante la temporada
de Cuaresma:
1. Los días de ayuno y abstinencia siguiente es
Viernes (Santo 3 de abril)
2. Todos los viernes de Cuaresma son días de
abstinencia, es decir que toda persona de 14 años o
mayor no deberá comer carne, ni salsas hechas con
carne.
3. Los viernes del año, fuera del Tiempo de
Cuaresma son designados días de penitencia, (algún
tipo de sacrificio voluntario como abstinencia de
carne u otros).
Aquellas personas entre los 18 y 59 años de edad
están obligadas a ayunar, es decir, podrán comer sólo
una comida completa al día. Si gozan de buena salud,
los mayores de 59 años pueden también hacer este
sacrificio.
Tengo los ojos puestos en el Señor, porque él me libra de
todo peligro. Mírame, Dios mío y ten piedad de mí, que
estoy solo y afligido. (Salmo 24, 15-16)

LECTURA DEL DÍA
CAMINO A LA LIBERTAD
La mayoría de nosotros, si nos
preguntaran “¿Aparece la frase ‘los Diez
Mandamientos’ en la Biblia?” daríamos la
respuesta errónea, pues la respuesta es “no”.
“Los diez mandamientos” es una frase post-bíblica, que se
desarrolló junto con una imagen de Dios como ‘policía’ la
cual no se encuentra en el pasaje de hoy del libro del
Éxodo. La primera frase es clave: Dios es el que nos sacó
de la esclavitud; cumplir las leyes o mandamientos de
Dios es nuestro camino a la libertad. Los cambistas a
quienes Jesús echó del templo no estaban violando
ninguno de los mandamientos, pero tampoco estaban
ayudando a la gente a encontrar el camino hacia la
libertad de Dios cuando llegaban al Templo a rezar. Esta
es una lección de la Cuaresma importante para nosotros.
Tenemos que dejar de preguntarnos si estamos o no
violando alguna regla o reglamento específico, y en
cambio examinar nuestra vida para ver si verdaderamente
estamos siguiendo un camino hacia la libertad de Dios por
medio de Cristo.

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT
A voyaging ship was wrecked during a storm at sea!
Only two men survived and were able to swim to a
small deserted island. Not knowing what to do, they
decided to pray to God, but wanting to find out whose
prayer was more powerful, they agreed to divide the
territory between them and stay on opposite sides of
the island.
The 1st thing the 1st man prayed for was food. The
next morning, there was a fruit bearing tree on his side
of the island, and he was able to eat the fruit. On the
other side of the island, that man had no food.
After about a week, the 1st man was lonely and prayed
for a wife. The next day, another ship was wrecked,
and the only survivor, a woman, swam to his side of
the island. On the other side of the island, still
nothing.
The 1st man then prayed for housing, clothes and more
food. Like magic, all of this was given to him.
However, the 2nd man still had nothing.
The first man then prayed for a ship so that he and his
wife could leave the island. In the morning, a ship
was docked at his side of the island!
That morning, he and his wife boarded the ship to
leave the island. He considered the 2nd man unworthy
to receive God’s blessings and left him behind as none
of his prayers were answered. As the ship was about
to leave, the 1st man heard a booming voice from
above, “Why are you leaving your companion on the
island?” The man answered, “My blessings are mine
alone, since I prayed for them. His prayers were
unanswered!”
“You are mistaken! He had only one prayer,
which I answered. If not for that, you would not
have received any of my blessings,” the voice from
above advised. “Tell me, what did he pray for that I
should owe anything?” “He prayed that all your
prayers be answered,” the voice answered. For all
we know our blessings are not the fruits of our prayers
alone, but those of another praying for us.
When Jesus died on the cross, He was thinking of
all of us!
ST. IGNATIUS LOYOLA:
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.
