From the Pastor’s Desk
Del Escritorio del Pastor
Dear parishioners and friends: In our country, last week, we witnessed the
inauguration of President Trump and people from
around the world tuned in and listened to his Inaugural
Address. I t is the speech that sets the tone for every
newly elected President. The speech represents an
outline of the plans and goals for the new
administration. In our Gospel this weekend from St.
Matthew, we hear the Inaugural Address of Our Lord
Jesus as he begins his public ministry. Jesus teaches
us the Beatitudes, and like the President’s speech, this
too sets the tone for the teachings and priorities of
Jesus. Our Lord turns the values of the world upside
down. The world praises the powerful, the wealthy,
and the proud, while Our Lord calls blessed the meek,
the poor, and the humble. On a Christian Website
called The Guided Light, I found a modern-day version
of the Beatitudes. I thought this would be helpful to
you as you think and pray about how the Beatitudes
can become real in your life.
A Modern-Day Version of the Beatitudes
You’re blessed when you hit rock bottom, because
then you can rely on God to go to work for you.
You’re blessed when you mourn. That means you
feel compassion and empathy for others. You begin
to understand that we are all one.
You’re blessed when you are humble and authentic.
That is worth way more than fleeting power and
material possessions.
You’re blessed when you hunger and thirst after
spiritual things instead of worldly things. You will
feel full instead of empty.
You’re blessed when you express kindness. You
will receive kindness in return.
You’re blessed when you allow God’s presence and
goodness to fill your mind, heart and soul. Then
you will see God in the outside world.
You are blessed if you live in peace and create
peace. Then you will understand what it means to
be a child of God. You are fulfilling God’s dream
for world peace.
You’re blessed when people make fun of you or
ridicule you for my sake. That means you struck a
nerve. Well done! Many of my followers have
experienced this. You are in good company.
You’re blessed if you are persecuted because of
your relationship with God. God knows and sees
everything. God will reward you for your
faithfulness.
I pray that the Beatitudes of Jesus, the road map to
spiritual happiness, will guide your heart this weekend and
always.
God Bless you and your Families, Fr. Vince
Queridos feligreses y amigos: En nuestro país, la semana pasada, fuimos testigos de la
inauguración del Presidente Trump y personas de todo el mundo
sintonizaron y escucharon su discurso inaugural. Es el discurso
que marca el tono para cada nuevo presidente electo. El discurso
representa un esquema de los planes y metas para la nueva
administración. En nuestro Evangelio, este fin de semana, de San
Mateo, escuchamos el discurso inaugural de Nuestro Señor Jesús
cuando comienza su ministerio público. Jesús nos enseña las
Bienaventuranzas, y al igual que el discurso del Presidente, esto
también establece el tono para las enseñanzas y prioridades de
Jesús. Nuestro Señor vuelve los valores del mundo al revés. El
mundo alaba a los poderosos, ricos y orgullosos, mientras que
Nuestro Señor llama bendecidos a los mansos, a los pobres y a
los humildes. En un sitio web cristiano llamado “The Guided
Light”, encontré una versión moderna de las Bienaventuranzas.
Pensé que esto sería útil para usted mientras piensa y ora acerca
de cómo las Bienaventuranzas pueden llegar a ser reales en su
vida.
Una Versión Moderna de las Bienaventuranzas:
Usted es bendecido cuando se encuentra en la peor situación
posible, porque entonces usted puede confiar en Dios quien
lo auxiliará.
Eres bendecido cuando lloras. Eso significa que usted siente
compasión y empatía por los demás. Usted comienza a
entender que todos somos uno.
Usted es bendecido cuando usted es humilde y auténtico.
Eso vale mucho más que el poder fugaz y posesiones
materiales.
Ustedes son bendecidos cuando tienen hambre y sed de
cosas espirituales en lugar de cosas mundanas. Se sentirá
lleno en lugar de vacío.
Eres bendecido cuando expresas bondad. Usted recibirá
amabilidad a cambio.
Ustedes son bendecidos cuando permiten que la presencia y
la bondad de Dios llenen su mente, corazón y alma.
Entonces verán a Dios en el mundo exterior.
Ustedes son bendecidos si viven en paz y crean paz.
Entonces entenderán lo que significa ser hijos de Dios. Están
cumpliendo el sueño de Dios por la paz mundial.
Eres bendecido cuando la gente se burla de ti o te ridiculiza
por mi bien. Eso significa que golpeaste un nervio. ¡Bien
hecho! Muchos de mis seguidores han experimentado esto.
Estás en buena compañía.
Ustedes son bendecidos si son perseguidos por su relación
con Dios. Dios lo sabe y lo ve todo. Dios te recompensará
por tu fidelidad.
Oro para que las Bienaventuranzas de Jesús, el camino hacia la
felicidad espiritual, guíen su corazón este fin de semana
y siempre.
Que Dios te bendiga a ti y a tu familia, Padre Vicente

Stewardship Humility
“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom
of heaven.” Matthew 5:3
This one confuses even Stewards. Replace the word “humble”
for “poor” and it makes more sense. People that are humble
recognize their dependence on God and trust that He will provide
all that they need. Unfortunately, for many of us, pride and ego
enters our lives and we think we can live without God.
Remember – God first in all circumstances.

As previously announced a couple of weeks ago, we are
in the process of establishing a New Pastoral
Council. With the help of an experienced facilitator we
will have a series of discernment meetings for those
interested in serving the parish in this capacity. The first
informational meeting is scheduled for Tuesday,
Feb. 7, 2017, 7:00 p.m. at Our Lady of Grace Chapel on
the Lindenwold campus. Once the council is formed
and guidelines and by-laws are adopted, we will initiate
a series of parish meetings to gather information from
you and start the process of formulating a pastoral plan.
If you are interested in serving on the Pastoral Council
please attend this important meeting.
Thank you, Father Vince

The Heart of Mary: the Birthplace
of the Civilization of Love
The Legion of Mary dwells at the heart of the Marian Movement in
this country and in nations all over the world. Mary's love and
devotion to her Divine Son and to all of us as her daughters and
sons are the gifts that personify her place as our ultimate mother.
Help our Legion of Mary praesidium, Mother of Perpetual Help,
carry her gifts of love to all those who are lost or despairing by
becoming Active or Auxiliary (praying) members.
Because our Blessed Mother is the gateway to Jesus as our
intercessor and advocate, our praesidium offers two beautiful
pilgrim statues of Our Lady that can be brought into your homes for
veneration and special Novenas to request favors, or thanksgiving
for favors received.
To inquire about membership or having a pilgrim statue in
your home for two weeks at a time, please call Stephanie Greco
(856-346-1086) or Marge McShane (856-784-2435).
God’s Love in Action
God never intended for us to go through
difficulties alone. That is why God has brought us
together as a congregation and why we have
Stephen Ministry.
To learn how you, or a friend, neighbor, coworker or
relative can receive care, please contact:
