PRESENTATION OF THE LORD

The Presentation of the Lord concludes the

celebration of the Nativity and with the offerings of

the Virgin Mother and the prophecy of Simeon, the events now point toward

Easter. 2 falls on a Sunday and thus takes precedence. There are two ways of

celebrating the ceremony, either the Procession,

which begins at a 'gathering place' outside

the church, or the Solemn Entrance, celebrated

within the church."— From Ceremonies of the

Liturgical Year

THIRD SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME

What does it mean for the Church, for us, today to be disciples of Jesus the

Lamb of God? It means putting innocence in the place of malice, love

in the place of force, humility in the place of pride, service in the place of

prestige. It is good work! We Christians must do this: put innocence in the place of malice, love in the place of force, humility in the place of pride,

service in the place of prestige. Being disciples of the Lamb means that we must not live like a “city under siege,”

but like a city on a hill, open, welcoming, solidary. It means not

having an attitude of closedness, but proposing the Gospel to everyone,

testifying with our life that following Jesus makes us more free and more

joyful. — Pope Francis Angelus Address January

Intenciones de MisaThe custom of requesting a priest to offer the Mass for

a specific intention, even when one cannot bephysically present at the Mass, is a longstanding

tradition in the Church.This is because the Church considers the Mass as thegreatest possible prayer of intercession insofar as it isthe perfect offering of Christ to the Father by making

present the paschal mystery of his death andresurrection.

O Mary, you shine continuously on our journey as a sign of salvation and hope.We entrust ourselves to you, Health of the Sick.At the foot of the Cross you participated in Jesus’ pain,with steadfast faith.You, Salvation of the Roman People, know what we need.We are certain that you will provide, so that,as you did at Cana of Galilee,joy and feasting might return after this moment of trial.Help us, Mother of Divine Love,to conform ourselves to the Father’s willand to do what Jesus tells us:He who took our sufferings upon Himself, and bore our sorrows to bring us,through the Cross, to the joy of the Resurrection. Amen.

We seek refuge under your protection, O Holy Mother of God.Do not despise our pleas – we who are put to the test – and deliver us from every danger, O glorious and blessed Virgin.

EL PAPA FRANCISCO COMPONE UNA ORACIÓN A NUESTRA SEÑORA, SALUD DE LOS ENFERMOS, PARA IMPLEMENTAR SU PROTECCIÓN DURANTE LA EPIDEMIA DE CORONAVIRUS COVID-19.

Oh María,tú resplandeces siempre en nuestro caminocomo signo de salvación y de esperanza.Confiamos en ti, salud de los enfermos,que junto a la cruz te asociaste al dolor de Jesús,manteniendo firme tu fe.Tú, salvación del pueblo romano,sabes lo que necesitamosy estamos seguros de que proveerás,para que, como en Caná de Galilea,pueda volver la alegría y la fiestadespués de este momento de prueba.Ayúdanos, Madre del Divino Amor,a conformarnos a la voluntad del Padrey a hacer lo que nos diga Jesús,que ha tomado sobre sí nuestros sufrimientosy ha asumido nuestras aflicciones,para llevarnos, a través de la cruz,a la alegría de la resurrección. Amén.

Bajo tu amparo nos acogemos, Santa Madre de Dios.No deseches las oraciones que te dirigimos en nuestras necesidades,antes bien, líbranos de todo peligro, oh Virgen gloriosa y bendita.

Act of Spiritual CommunionSpiritual Comunion Prayer

Spiritual Communion is an ardent desire to receive Jesus in the Most Holy Sacrament. The

most common reason for making an Act of Spiritual Communion is when a person cannot

attend Mass. Acts of Spiritual Communion increase our desire to receive sacramental

Communion and help us avoid sin.My Jesus, I believe that you are present in the

Most Holy Sacrament.I love you above all things and I desire to receive

you in my soul.Since I cannot at this moment receive you

sacramentally,Come at least spiritually into my heart.

I embrace you as if you were already thereAnd unite myself wholly to you.

Never permit me to be separated from you.Amen.

Acto de comunión espiritualOración para hacer una comunión espiritual

Cuando no sea posible por una u otra razón recibir a Cristo en forma sacramental, o en

cualquier momento en que uno desee ardientemente recibir a Jesús, se le puede recibir

espiritualmente, pronunciando la siguiente fórmula con fervor, demostrándole a Jesús el

deseo sincero de estar con Él.Creo Señor mío que éstas realmente presente en

el Santísimo Sacramento del altar.Te amo sobre todas las cosas y deseo

ardientemente recibirte dentro de mi alma; pero, no pudiendo hacerlo ahora sacramentalmente, ven al menos

espiritualmente a mi corazón.Y como si te hubiese recibido, me abrazo y me uno todo a Ti; Oh Señor, no permitas que me

separe de Ti.Amen.

FACT OFFAITH The Ascension into Heaven

The Paschal Mystery culmi-nates in the Ascension of Jesus. After his appear-

ance here on earth in his risen body, and “after giving instruc-tions through the holy Spirit to the apostles whom he had chosen” (Acts 1:2), Jesus “was lifted up and a cloud took him from their sight” (Acts 1:9):

Christ’s ascension marks the definitive entrance of Jesus’ humanity into God’s heavenly domain, whence he will come again (cf. Acts 1:11). . . . Jesus Christ, the head of the Church, precedes us into the Father’s glorious kingdom so that we, the members of his Body, may live in the hope of one day be-ing with him for ever. Jesus Christ, having entered the sanctuary of heaven once and for all, intercedes constantly for us as the mediator who assures us of the permanent outpouring of the Holy Spirit. (CCC, nos. 665-667)

El Misterio Pascual culmi-na con la Ascensión deJesús. Tras su aparición

aquí en la tierra con su cuerpo resucitado, y “después de dar sus instrucciones, por medio del Espíritu Santo, a los apóstoles que había elegido” (Hch 1:2), Jesús “se fue elevando a la vistade ellos, hasta que una nube lo ocultó a sus ojos”(Hch 1:9):

La ascensión de Jesucristo marca la entrada definitiva de la humanidad de Jesús en eldominio celeste de Dios de donde ha de volver (cf. Hch 1:11) […] Jesucristo, cabeza de la Iglesia, nos precede en el Reino glorioso del Padre para que nosotros, miembros de sucuerpo, vivamos en la esperan-za de estar un día con él eter-namente. Jesucristo, habiendoentrado una vez por todas en el santuario del cielo, intercede sin cesar por nosotros comoel mediador que nos asegura permanentemente la efusión del Espíritu Santo.
