From the Pastor

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, Blessed Laetare Sunday. May your hearts be filled with joy this day at the nearness of the great Feast of Easter. This Sunday reminds us to always fix our attention on the glorious and risen Christ even when we are in the midst of suffering, or perhaps I should say especially when we are in the midst of suffering. Lent is a time of penance, a time to offer our sacrifices big and small in atonement for our sins in union with the Sacrifice of Christ. It is a time to take stock of our lives and examine them in the light of the teachings of our Lord and Savior. I hope and pray that the time still remaining in this holy season may be a time of grace and that your hearts will be truly converted so that you may ex-perience the full joy of risen and glorified Christ. Soon Easter will be here. I am writing this at a time when we are still in the process of working out the final details of the visit of Father Jose del Carmen Lizarazo Blanco from Colombia. He is coming to our parish to give us a mission on devotion to the Blessed Sacrament of the Holy Eucharist. The plan is for him to give the homilies this weekend at the Spanish Masses and then to celebrate the daily Spanish Masses as well as every evening at 6:00 p.m. He will be coming with two other people and they will help to organ-ize our chapel of perpetual adoration which will be held in the newly blessed Chapel of St. Toribio. It will be a great grace for our parish to have people praying around the clock seven days a week before our Eucharistic Lord. I hope you will join in this joyous adventure and experience the rich graces the Lord has in store for you. He will bless you and your family and will bring about an increase in vo-cations to the priesthood and religious life from our parish. He will strengthen the faith of the commu-nity and will console those who are afflicted with problems. In this Jubilee Year of Mercy the Lord is showing us His kindness in a tremendous way.

Thank you for responding to His love. On Satur-day, march 12th Padre Jose will be offering a day long retreat to help us be renewed in our Christian lives and I hope that you will participate if you have the opportunity. It will start at 9:00 a.m. and continue until around 4:00 p.m. and be held here at our parish. Let us know in the parish office if you plan to attend so that we can be sure to have suffi-cient materials ready as well as the food that we will be serving for lunch. We hope that the perpet-ual adoration will begin that day as well. Next Sunday you will see the statues and images of the Church completely veiled from sight. It is a reminder that the sorrows of the Head have af-flicted the Body as well. the delight of seeing the blessed images is taken away from us so that we may realize the stark sense of abandonment that the Lord Jesus experienced in His human soul dur-ing His tremendous passion. He was afflicted, a Man of sorrows and felt crushed because of our sins and offenses. When we begin the glorious celebration of the Resurrection we will unveil the images again so that our joy may be restored. We are working hard on the Visa application proc-ess for the religious sisters from El Salvador. It is progressing. Thanks to the hard work of many peo-ple the convent is ready, there is a car for them and we are making plans to build a car port. Hopefully soon we will know what day they are coming. At least they are escaping the cold weather and will arrive when it is warmer. They have probably never experienced snow before. Please pray that all goes well. Sincerely yours, Father Timothy Davison DDF Update as of February 19th: Sts. Peter & Paul has given $13,882.00. Our goal this year is $17,850.00. If you have not already done so, please send in your envelope to the Diocesan Development Fund.

Del Párroco:

Queridos hermanos y hermanas en Cristo, Bendiciones en este Domingo Laetare. Que sus corazones estén llenos de felicidad porque se acer-ca la Pascua. Este domingo nos recuerda de siem-pre tener nuestra atención fijada en el glorioso y resucitado Cristo aunque estamos sufriendo, o me-jor dicho, especialmente cuando estamos sufrien-do. La Cuaresma es un tiempo de penitencia, un tiempo para ofrecer nuestros sacrificios, grandes o pequeños en expiación por nuestros pecados en unión con el Sacrificio de Cristo. Es un tiempo pa-ra revisar nuestras vidas y para examinarlas en la luz de las enseñanzas de nuestro Señor y Salvador. Espero y rezo que el tiempo que queda en esta temporada sagrada sea un tiempo de gracia y que sus corazones sean verdaderamente convertidos para que pueden experimentar la plena felicidad del Cristo resucitado y glorioso. Pronto llegara la Pascua. Estoy escribiendo esta carta cuando todavía esta-mos planeando la visita del Padre José del Carmen Lizarazo de Colombia. El va a venir a nuestra pa-rroquia para darnos una misión sobre devoción al Santísimo presente en la Eucaristía. El plan es que el predicara este domingo en todas las Misas en español y luego ofrecerá las Misas entre semana a las 6:00 pm. El llegara con dos otras personas que nos ayudaran a organizar nuestra capillita de ado-ración perpetua que tendrá lugar en el reciente-mente bendecido Santuario de Santo Toribio. Será una gracia muy grande para nuestra parroquia tener gente rezando día y noche siete días de la semana en frente de nuestro Señor Eucarístico. El Señor dará a ustedes que participen muchas gracias pro-fundas. El bendecirá ustedes y sus familias y traerá a nuestra parroquia un aumento de vocaciones al sacerdocio y a la vida religiosa . El fortalecerá la fe en nuestra comunidad y dara consolación a aque-llos con problemas. En este Año Jubileo de la Mi-sericordia el Señor esta mostrándonos su cariño

El próximo sábado

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE Cuaresma es tiempo de reconciliación por me-dio del perdón. En este espíritu, el Papa san Juan Pablo II pidió perdón por pecados cometidos por la Iglesia. Uno de estos pecados es la manera co-mo América fue cristianizada. La relación del latino con la religión católica ha sido entre buenas intenciones y antagonismos. Gracias a Dios, ¡somos cristianos! Lamentable-mente, nuestro bautizo, en la mayor parte de los casos, fue en agua bendita y sangre indígena a la vez, ya que América fue evangelizada con cruz y espada. Los pobres misioneros que con fatiga, pre-dicaron en nuestras tierras venían acompañados por hombres poderosos en busca de riquezas. El filósofo romano-español Séneca (siglo I) afirmaba: "la religión es algo que para la persona común es verdad, para el sabio es falso y para el poderoso es útil". A su vez, el romano-judío Pablo de Tarso declara que en Cristo, Dios ha revelado que la persona común y necia derribará la falsedad de los sabios (1 Cor 1:18-31). El latino creyente reconoce que su fe nació del dolor de la conquista y no niega los abusos clerica-les, pero confía en el Evangelio reconciliador. —Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

en una manera extraordinaria. Gracias por respon-der a Su amor. Sábado, el 12 de marzo, Padre José ofrecerá un retiro todo el día para ayudarnos a es-tar renovados en nuestras vidas cristianas y ojala que pueden participar. El retiro comenzara a las 9:00 am y terminara a las 4:00 pm y se llevara a cabo aquí en nuestra parroquia. Favor avisarnos en la oficina parroquial si desea participar para que podemos tener suficiente comida y materiales. Es-peramos empezar el programa de adoración perpe-tua ese día también. El próximo domingo verán todas las imágenes completamente cubiertas. Es un recuerdo que los padecimientos de la Cabeza afligen el Cuerpo tam-bién. La felicidad de ver las benditas imágenes es-ta quitada para que podemos sentir el profundo sentimiento de abandono que experimento Jesús en su alma humano durante su pasión tremenda. El fue afligido, un Hombre de dolores, y padeció por nuestros pecados y por nuestras ofensas. Cuando celebramos la gloriosa resurrección los velos serán quitados de las imágenes para que nuestra alegría sea restablecida. Estamos trabajando en el proceso de aplicar por las visas de las hermanas religiosas de El Salvador. Estamos progresando. Gracias a todos que han tra-bajado duro el convento esta listo, tenemos un aca-rro para su uso, y vamos a construir un lugar para guardar el carro. Ojala que pronto tendremos una fecha de su llegada. A lo menos están escapando la temporada del frío y llegaran cuando el tiempo esta mas agradable. Favor oren que todo sale bien. Sinceramente, Padre Timothy Davison
