The Lambs Super (Audio Presentation): Based on his bestselling book, Dr. Scott Hahn reveals the early Christians' key to understanding the Mass: the Book of Revelation. With its bizarre imagery, mystic visions of Heaven, and end-times prophecies, it mirrors the sacrifice and celebration of the Holy Eucharist. See the Mass with new eyes, pray the Liturgy with a renewed heart, and enter into the Mass more fully and enthusiastically!

SAINTJANEOFVALOIS(1464–1505)FeastDay-February4St. Jane was the daughter of King Louis XI of France. She was born in 1464. The king had wanted a son and he was very disappointed with her birth. He did not want Jane to live at the palace because she had been born with a physical deformity. When she was five years old, she was sent to live with other people. Jane was good and gentle with everyone.

She was convinced that Jesus and Mary loved her. She believed the Lord would use her to do good in his name. She was right!

When she grew up Jane decided not to marry, she had given herself to Jesus and his Blessed Mother, but her father forced her to marry the duke of Orleans. Jane was a devoted wife for twenty-two years. When the duke became king, he sent Jane to live by herself in a far-off township. She did not become resen ul, but exclaimed: “God be praised! He has permi ed this that I might serve him be er than I have up to now.

Jane lived a prayerful life and prac ced penances and acts of kindness. She gave all her money to the poor. She started an order of sisters called the Annuncia on of the Blessed Virgin Mary. She spent the rest of her life joyfully serving Jesus and his Mother. Jane died in 1505 and many miracles occurred a er her death. She was proclaimed a saint by Pope Pius XII in 1950.

7:00 pm Re lexionemossobrelaPalabradeDiosLas bienaventuranzas pudieran ciertamente parecernos ilógicas y absurdas a menos que consideremos a la persona que nos las dice, que es Jesús, el cual se hizo “débil” y “despreciable” para ser nuestra “salvación, san ficación y redención”. Él personificó a los anawim para conver rse en la esperanza verdadera para todos los pueblos. Jesús es el insultado y perseguido que depende sólo en Dios; él es quien nos ofrece la paz con misericordia y también es él la fuente de toda bendición. A los pobres, a los afligidos y perseguidos Jesús les dice: “Todo lo que ustedes sufren, ya yo lo sufrí. Dios no me abandonó a mí ni yo los abandonaré a ustedes”. A los ricos y poderosos, a los sa sfechos, Jesús les dice: “Yo compar todas mis bendiciones y hasta mi vida con los pobres y los humildes. Hagan ustedes lo mismo y conocerán la misericordia salvífica de Dios”. Y a todos ellos les dice Jesús: “Con en en el Señor de las posibilidades infinitas, que los bendecirá con los dones de la valen a, la paz y el gozo”. —Virginia Stillwell Derechos de autor © 2013, World Library Publications.

Proper Etiquette for Mass - continued

The celebra on of the Mass throughout the universal church is regulated by the GIRM – the General Instruc on of the Roman Missal. The GIRM states that “the celebra on of Mass, as the ac on of Christ and of the People of God arrayed hierarchically, is the center of the whole Chris an life. For in it is found the high point… by which God sanc fies the world in Christ and of the worship that the human race offers to the Father,” This speaks of the great importance the celebra on of the Mass has for every Catholic. In the weeks ahead we will reflect further upon the way we might allow our par cipa on in the Mass to bear abundant fruit in our lives.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Etiqueta apropiada para la misa - continuación La celebración de la Misa en toda la iglesia universal está dirigida por la IGMR, la Instrucción General del Misal Romano. La IGNMR afirma que “la celebración de la misa, como la acción de Cristo y del Pueblo de Dios organizada jerárquicamente, es el centro de toda la vida cris ana. Porque en él se encuentra el punto culminante... por el cual Dios san fica al mundo en Cristo y de la adoración que la raza humana ofrece al Padre,” Esto habla de la gran importancia que la celebración de la Misa ene para cada católico. En las próximas semanas reflexionaremos más sobre la forma en que podríamos permi r nuestra par cipación en la Misa para producir abundante fruto en nuestras vidas.
