MISSION STATEMENT MISSION STATEMENT MISSION STATEMENT

From the Pastor The Presentation of the Lord Sunday, February 2 – The Feast of the Presenta-tion of the Lord is celebrated every year on February 2. Since it is a feast of the Lord, it replaces the 4th Sunday of Ordinary time. Today, 40 days after his birth, Jesus was formally presented in the temple according to Jew-ish law and was there recognized as Messiah by two elderly bystanders, Simeon and Anna. This feast is also called Candlemas because candles are blessed at this Mass. Since 1997, this day has also been kept as “World Day for Consecrated Life” by celebrating and praying for all persons who have taken vows of poverty, chastity and obedience in the Church. Other celebrations this week: Monday, February 3 – St. Blaise, Bishop and Martyr. This saint cured a boy from choking on a fish bone in the 4th century and ever since has been invoked as a patron saint against diseases of the throat. Those who attend Mass on this day may have their throats blessed by the priest.

Wednesday, February 5 – St. Agnes, Virgin and Mar-tyr in Southern Italy in 251.

Thursday, February 6 – St. Paul Miki and Compan-ions, Martyrs. In Nagasaki, Japan on Feb. 5, 1597, St. Paul and 25 Jesuits, Franciscans and laymen were put to death for their faith. One of them was the Mexican, Felipe de Jesus – the first martyr from the Americas to be beatified. Fr. Timothy

De nuestro Sacerdote La Presentación del Señor Domingo 2 de febrero – La Fiesta de la Presentación del Señor se celebra cada año el 2 de febrero. Como es una fiesta del Señor, remplaza este año al 4º domingo del tiempo ordinario. Hoy, 40 días después de nacer, Jesucristo se presenta formalmente en el Templo para cumplir con la ley judía. En este momento se reconoció como Mesías por dos personas ancianas, Simeón y Ana. Esta fiesta también se conoce por el nombre de “Candelaria” pues hoy se bendice a velas durante la Misa. Desde el año 1997 se celebra también en este día la Jornada Mundial de las Personas Consagradas” cele-brando y orando por todas las personas en la Iglesia que han emitido votos religiosos de pobreza, castidad, y obediencia. Otras celebraciones de esta semana: Lunes 3 de febrero – San Blas, Obispo y Mártir. Este santo del 4º siglo curó a un niño que se estaba sofo-cando por una espina de pescado. Desde entonces San Blas se venera como patrón de los que padecen enfer-medades de la garganta. En este día los que asisten a Misa pueden recibir una bendición de la garganta a ma-nos del sacerdote. Miércoles 5 de febrero – Santa Inés, Virgen y Mártir. Italia del Sur († año 251). Jueves 6 de febrero – San Pablo Miki y Compañeros, Mártires. En Nagasaki, Japón en el 5 de febrero de 1597, San Pablo junto con 25 jesuitas, franciscanos y unos laico murieron por su fe. Uno de ellos fue el mexi-cano Felipe de Jesús – el primer beato de los mártires americanos.

Los Frutos de Medjugorje (autor Elizabeth Ficocelli)

En 1981 la Virgen Maria empezó a aparecerse en un pe-queño pueblo llamado Medjugorje, ubicado en el país de Croacia, antigua Yugoslavia. A diferencia de las aparicio-nes que tuvieron lugar en Fátima (Portugal) y Lourdes (Francia); en Medjugorje, las profecías, los fenómenos sobrenaturales y los milagros de recuperación de la salud, han venido sucediendo desde hace décadas y millones de personas lo han atestiguado. Puedes adquirir este libro el 15 o 16 de febrero en la venta de libros y Cd en el vestíbulo de la iglesia.

“When parents say ‘yes’ to life for their child, they are saying ‘yes’ to the most loving and healing path for all involved. When God invites us to draw close to him by following his commandments (Jn 14:15), he does so be-cause he wants what is best for us. By saying ‘yes’ to life for their child, which is morally good and right, parents are placing their trust in God and embracing their child and the life their child has been given for as long as it is given.” ~USCCB Secretariat of Pro-Life Activities~

“Cuando los padres dicen 'sí' a la vida para su hijo, están diciendo 'sí' al camino más amoroso y sanador para todos los afectados. Cuando Dios nos invita a acercarnos a Él cumpliendo sus mandamientos (Juan 14,15), lo hace por-que quiere lo mejor para nosotros. Al decir 'sí' a la vida de su hijo, que es moralmente lo bueno y justo, los pa-dres están poniendo su confianza en Dios y abrazando a su hijo y a la vida que se le ha dado a su hijo por el tiem-po que sea.” ~Secretariado de Actividades Pro-Vida de la USCCB~

En el Evangelio, escuchamos a Simeón decirle a Ma-ría: “… tu propia alma será traspasada con una espa-da—para que los pensamientos de muchos corazones se muestren descubiertos.” Su generosidad permite a la Sociedad de San Vicente

de Paul a traer la esperanza a padres con corazones ago-biados con preocupaciones y temores. ¿Le está llamando Dios a escuchar a los necesitados de nuestra comunidad? Favor de dejar un mensaje para Dalila al 630.236.1285. Visite nuestro sitio web en http://www.ourladyofgoodcounsel.net/ministry/the-society-of-st-vincent-de-paul/ o venga o a una de nuestras reuniones en el salón del a caridad en el Centro San Francis el 2do o 4to martes del mes a las 7 PM.

In the Gospel, we hear Simeon say to Mary: “… your own soul shall be pierced with a sword—so that the thoughts of many hearts may be laid bare.”

Your generosity enables the Society of St. Vincent de Paul to bring hope to parents whose hearts are burdened with worries and concerns.

Is God calling you to spend some time listening to people in our community who are in need? Please leave a mes-sage for Dalila at 630-236-1285.

The Psychology of a Faithful Disciple

How to I handle difficult family members? What do I do if I can't control my emotions? When do I correct others and when do I hold my tongue? Too often we are late in realizing that we mishandled a situation causing both resentment and frustration. But what if you could approach every situation with the mind of Christ? Using his decades of experience as a clinical psychologist and a practicing Catholic. Dr. Ray Guarendi, popular radio and TV host, offers here dozens of bit-sized reflections that combine sound spiritu-al advice with the best of modern psychology. Dr. Ray will help you address countless daily problems and create a plan of action for your most common troubles. With his trademark frankness and humor, Dr. Ray tackles topics that too often bring confusion and heartache. Do you have questions please call Anne Strong 630-892-9411.
