REFLECTION Epiphany of the Lord CHILDREN’S PROGRAMS "We saw his star at its rising and have come to do him homage." These Magi did not know the person they were seeking to honor. They had not met Jesus, but had embarked upon a long and arduous journey in order to come into his presence. Although they were not from among the Jewish people who had received the ancient promises of a Messiah, they were nonetheless anticipating his arrival. And when they found him, "they were overjoyed." Their quest had come to its moment of fulfillment when "they saw the child with Mary his mother." For those of us who have been raised Christian since our infancy, it's important to reflect on the joy of the Magi. They found Christ as a result of great effort and expense. The very trials of their journey, and the hope that was fulfilled when it was successful, made them appreciate their encounter with Jesus in a profound way as "they prostrated themselves... and offered him gifts." Converts to the faith may have a kind of advantage in comprehending the experience of the Magi. But cradle Catholics may need to exert a bit more effort to share in the wonder. Even when Jesus has always been a part of someone's life, it is still important to stand in awe of him. On the feast of the Epiphany of the Lord, we meditate on what it means to "find" Jesus. For some of us, this means remembering a conversion experience, but for others it means imagining what life would be like without him, and then rejoicing in the fact that he is truly with us. No matter how we found the Lord, we too should fall down on our knees in adoration and offer him the precious treasures of our lives: our fervent devotion and our will to serve him. ©Liturgical Publications Inc. Deacon Corner: (By Deacon Al) Deacon Corner: (By Deacon Al) The works of mercy are the practical ways we live out mercy. They are how we show loving kindness, compassion, and self-restraint to the people around us, both physically and spiritually. According to the Catechism, “The works of mercy are charitable actions by which we come to the aid of our neighbor in his spiritual and bodily necessities” (No. 2447). While the exact list has varied slightly throughout the history of the Church, there are 14 consistently recognized works of mercy. CORPORAL WORKS OF MERCY Feed the hungry Give drink to the thirsty Clothe the naked Harbour the harbourless Visit the sick Ransom the captive Bury the dead SPIRITUAL WORKS OF MERCY Instruct the ignorant Counsel the doubtful Admonish sinners Bear wrongs patiently Forgive offenses willingly Comfort the afflicted Pray for the living and the dead Elementary Sunday L.I.F.E.

REFLEXIONES La Epifanía del Señor MINISTERIO DE JOVENES PARA CRISTO - JPC Jesucristo es para todos, es el mensaje central de este domingo de la Epifanía del Señor. Seguimos de fiesta en torno a la manifestación de Dios al mundo. Continuamos con la celebración de la Navidad reuniéndonos en torno a la Eucaristía. La oración Colecta nos ayuda a reflexionar en la importancia de desear la salvación cada vez más. "Señor Dios, que por medio de una estrella, diste a conocer en este día, a todos los pueblos el nacimiento de tu Hijo, concede a los que ya te conocemos por la fe, llegar a contemplar, cara a cara, la hermosura de tu inmensa gloria". Por este mensaje entendemos que nadie tiene la exclusiva de la salvación. Todos tenemos que trabajar en ella como bautizados. ¿Cómo trabajo personalmente y en comunidad para que la salvación de Dios llegue a todos los pueblos? ¿Cómo podemos contemplar a Dios en las necesidades de nuestros hermanos y hermanas? Hoy es el día de abrir los corazones y las mentalidades de las personas para que el Evangelio sea ofrecido a los que no conocen a Dios. Esto es lo que el Papa Francisco y los obispos de los Estados Unidos nos piden. Abrir la dimensión misionera de la fe, ser discípulos con intención de serlo y no solo de apariencia. Los pobres, los sin voz, los inmigrantes, los enfermos y sobre todo los niños, tienen derecho de encontrarse con el Niño de Belén, de encontrar su luz y así iluminados por ella sean capaces de compartir lo que tienen. La Epifanía es un anuncio para los cercanos y para los lejanos, es el punto de unir todas las cosas en Cristo. ¡Gracias Señor por manifestarte en mi vida! ©Liturgical Publications Inc.
