The Way
of Faith
Aspects of Worship: Sacred Silence
In a recent homily, Pope Francis observed that
Mass "is not a social act...it is not a gathering of believers to pray together. It is another thing. In the liturgy, God is present....[In the Mass we are] entering into the mystery of God, allowing
ourselves to be led to the mystery and being part of the mystery " The
Holy Father's words may come as something of a surprise to many of us.
Isn't fellowship fundamental to our weekly gathering for Mass? The answer is both "yes" and "no". On the one hand, we come together as an
extended family, and there is great joy in seeing each other, encouraging
each other in faith, and supporting each other through our time together. On the other hand, the actual celebration of the Mass is not
about our fellowship. It is about the gathered community worshipping
God through Jesus Christ, who is truly present in our midst in the Eucharist, his Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity. In Mass Jesus draws us to the
Father through himself, and gives us access to the Heavenly Banquet.
The traditional structure of a church building, including our own, is a
reflection of this reality. We move from the noisy outside world, into a
narthex or gathering space where we great each other in Christ and begin to prepare internally for worship. Then we move into the church, the
worship space, where our entire focus is upon encountering the Lord
who comes into our midst, teaches us, and makes us whole.
This is why sacred silence has always played such an important role
in worship. Especially in the modern world, which is constantly noisy, it
is very hard to enter into the silence, where Christ speaks to us in his gentle, quiet voice. Jesus never yells. And so, if we wish to hear his voice in
our hearts and minds, we must quieten our hearts and minds. Spending
five or ten minutes prior to the beginning of Mass in silent prayer opens
us to Christ, and to the truly extraordinary presence of Christ throughout
Mass. Likewise, throughout Mass there are periods of silence that allow
us to recollect ourselves and refocus on Christ. The habit of keeping silence in Mass also helps us to find a bit of silence here and there
throughout the week, in which we begin to discover more fully Christ's
constant presence with us.
I want to encourage us all to deepen the habit of sacred silence both
before and during Mass, and throughout the week. When we are able to
develop both external and internal silence in our lives, we find a deeper
awareness of the immediacy of Christ present with us, and so a deeper
trust in and love for the one who first loved us.

Marriage and Family Life
Marriage Enrichment:
Marriage
When long-married couples are
Enrichment
asked the recipe for marital success, many identify patience as a
key ingredient. It’s the indispensable virtue for living together day
after day in relative peace, without
constant struggles to change the
other to our liking. Each day brings opportunity to cultivate
the virtue and to grow one’s marriage. Within marriage, patience means discerning what needs to be changed and
what needs to be tolerated. Like marriage itself, patience is
the work of a lifetime. Each day brings a small opportunity
to cultivate the virtue and to grow one’s marriage.

Reunión para formar un grupo que coordine los estudios
bíblicos se llevara a cabo el jueves 20 de Febrero.
Estos estudios bíblico serán como un ejemplo a seguir si es
que algunos lo quisieran hacer fuera de la parroquia. Un catequista certificado por la diócesis o 2 si es que lo harán en
pareja es requisito cumplir. La parroquia provee esta certificación y el costo del entrenamiento. Todas las actividades
religiosas, sacramentales, etc. Son coordinadas y supervisadas por la oficina de la parroquia, siguiendo los principios,
religiosos y teológicos de la Parroquia misma. Para mas información llama al Diacono Francisco al tel. 846-0628
