FESTIVAL FOR THE POOR
“BLESSED AND HAPPY TO SHARE MY GIFTS”
We, the 5t Louis Community, ARE blessed and have many gifts to share. A prime example is the ABeD drive.
Bishop Wenski and Father Paul asked and our parish family responded. The Humanity Ministry asked to feed and provide
gifts for 750 familles and without hesitation our parish family responded. Bishop Rivas from St Lucia asked our help to
recover from a devastating hurricane and our parish family responded. Through our parish families works, we do $0 much
only to be asked again and again. It is the Lord’s will that we, the parish family of St Louis, have the ability to do good
deeds and help others. The Festival for the Poor is no different. It needs YOU. The Festival was taken up 28 + years ago
with the idea to raise money to help feed, clothes and house the neediest among us in Miami Dade COunty. The Festival
has succeeded for 28 + years. We all need to step up again and participate by buying T-Shirts, raffle tickets, Friday Night
Dinner tickets, Saturday Night Dinner

Lecturas del Día
PRIMERA LECTURA (Isaías 58:7-10)
A la vuelta del exilio, el pueblo de Israel escucha por medio del
profeta cual es la fe y la fidelidad que Dios quiere de ellos. No se puede separar
la relación con Dios del respeto y el amor al prójimo. El culto, el ayuno y demás
prácticas rituales y religiosas son auténticos si conducen a la solidaridad fraterna
con los necesitados y al respeto a los derechos de las personas.
SEGUNDA LECTURA (1 Corintios 2: 10-15)
San Pablo nos recuerda que tanto su predicación como su testimonio no se
apoyan en la sabiduría humana. El centro de su mensaje es Cristo, curcificado.
De esta forma el apóstol quiere dejar claro que la fuerza de su Palabra radica en
el poder de Dios. El cristiano esta llamado a fundamentar su fe sólo en Cristo y
no en otros apoyos humanos.
EVANGELIO (Mateo 5: 13-16)
La comparación de los discípulos con la luz y la sal subrayan la vocación
misionera de la comunidad cristiana en medio del mundo. El testimonio cristiano
de fraternidad con el prójimo, y de relación de hijos con Dios Padre se convierte
en luz para los demás que los conduce hasta la alabanza y la fe en el Señor.

LIGHT
We celebrated this week on February 2 the Feast
of the Presentation of the Lord. It recalls the story of how
Mary and Joseph took the child Jesus to the temple on the
fortieth day after his birth for the Jewish ritual of presenting
him to God. On that occasion the elderly Simeon praised
God that he had lived to see the Messiah, whom he
proclaimed “a light for revelation to the Gentiles” (Luke
2:32).
As we try to continue to walk in Christ’s light, he
challenges us disciples to be a light for others, so “that
they may see your good deeds and glorify your heavenly
Father” (Matthew 5:16). The goodness and generosity we
show to others reflect the goodness and generosity that
God has shown to us.
Thanks for the many ways in which the light has
shown through our parishioners’ pledges to the ABCD,
the annual Archbishop’s Charities and Development
campaign. Because of charitable contributions, light
will be spread to counter the darkness of loneliness,
ignorance, fear, and human suffering in many forms.
These are all ministries of light that ABCD supports:
Morningstar Renewal Center, our seminaries in Miami and
Boynton Beach, Catholic Charities, hospital chaplaincies,
detention ministry, Respect Life, religious education,
communications, Lay Ministry, Family Enrichment, Marian
Center for persons with developmental disabilities, Schott
Center for the deaf and disabled, to name a few.
If you have not yet done so, join the more than 630
donors from our parish who have pledged over $400,000
to help the work of the Archdiocese. They have answered
the challenge of Archbishop Wenski to “start afresh from
Christ.”
In Christ,
LUZ
Esta semana el día 2 de febrero celebramos la
Fiesta de la Presentación del Señor. Relata la historia de
cómo María y José llevaron a su hijo Jesús al templo a los
cuarenta días después de su nacimiento, siguiendo el ritual
Judío de presentarlo ante Dios. En esa ocasión el anciano
Simeón dio gracias a Dios por permitirle vivir para ver al
Mesías, a quien proclamo “luz para iluminar a los paganos
(Lucas 2:32).
Al tiempo que continuamos nuestro caminar en la
luz de Cristo, él nos reta, a sus discípulos a ser luz para los
demás, “de modo que cuando ellos vean sus buenas obras,
glorifiquen al Padre de ustedes que está en el cielo.” (Mateo
5:16) La bondad y la generosidad que mostramos a los
demás refleja la bondad y la generosidad que Dios nos ha
mostrado a nosotros.
Gracias por las diferentes formas en que la luz ha
brillado a través de las ofertas de donación para el ABCD
(Campaña anual de las Obras de Caridad y Desarrollo del
Arzobispo) de nuestros feligreses. Debido a la contribución
generosa, esa luz brillará para contrarrestar la oscuridad
de la soledad, la ignorancia, el temor y el sufrimiento
humano en muchas formas. Todos estos son ministerios
de luz, los cuales ABCD apoya: Centro de Renovación de
MorningStar, nuestros Seminarios en Miami y Boynton
Beach, Caridades Católicas, Capellanes en los hospitales,
Ministerio de las Cárceles, Respeto a la Vida, Educación
Religiosa, Comunicaciones, Ministerio de Laicos, Centro de
Enriquecimiento Familiar, Centro Mariano para personas
discapacitadas, Centro Schott para sordos, sólo para
nombrar algunos.
Si usted todavía no ha hecho su oferta de donación,
únase a los más de 630 donantes de nuestra parroquia que
han ofrecido donar más de $400,000 para ayudar a las obras
de la Arquidiócesis. Han respondido al reto del Arzobispo
Wenski “comenzar de nuevo desde Cristo.
Suyo en Cristo,
