ORDENES SAGRADAS y LA VIDA CONSAGRADA: Llame al P. Edwin Leonard (214-379-2860) 28 DE FEBRERO DEL 2016 FEBRUARY 28, 2016 Going to Confession CONFESIÓN An essential part of the Sacrament of Reconciliation (also called Penance and Confession) is the telling of our sins to the priest, the minister of the Sacrament. La parte esencial del Sacramento de la Reconciliación (también llamado la Penitencia y confesión) es la confesión de nuestros pecados al Sacerdote, que es el ministro de este sacramento. All mortal sins, even the most secret and embarrassing offenses, must be confessed. The priest doesn’t need all the details, but he needs to know what is being confessed. The confession of venial sins, although not necessary, is encouraged by the Church. Any person, aware of being in the state of mortal sin, must not receive the Sacrament of Eucharist before going to confession. Telling our sins to the priest (confession) makes up only part of the sacrament. True sorrow for our failures (contrition) and a change of heart (conversion) are absolutely necessary as well; faith in God’s loving mercy, words of advice, absolution by the priest and the healing of relationships form equally vital portions of the process. The celebration of the Sacrament should always begin with a careful examination of conscience, which should include not only sins committed, but also sins of omission… our failures to do the right things. A good examination of conscience looks for those things that separate us from love of God and love of neighbor. This generally includes all selfishness and laziness in one form of another. This process does not depend on us alone, but in fact is God’s grace and the presence of the Holy Spirit at work in us even when we are in a state of grave/mortal sin. We express contrition or sorrow for our sins and the resolution not to sin again. After confessing our sins to the priest, we receive absolution. Only God forgives sins, but the priest sits in persona Christi and offers the forgiveness of God together with human forgiveness with respect to the harm done on the both the personal and communal level. After giving absolution, the priest may give penance (also know as satisfaction or restitution.) The penance imposed by the priest in confession should correspond with the gravity of the sin. It is meant to repair the harm caused by sin. The penance may include restitution/compensation, prayer, acts of charity, works of mercy, or service. It should not be too onerous or difficult to fulfill. The Sacrament of Reconciliation exists to restore us to God’s grace and to reconnect us to Him as his adopted children in Christ. Seen in this light, the sacrament becomes not something to be feared, but rather an opportunity to be healed of those things that separate us from God and from our neighbors. As a sacrament, Reconciliation becomes a grace-filled occasion that not only frees us from our sin, but restores or increases existing grace, the life of the risen Christ within us. To the extent that we express our sorrow out of love of God, rather than fear of Hell, and that we have been as honest and thorough as possible, we can leave the Sacrament of Reconciliation in very close to the same state of grace we had at the moment of Baptism. Todos los pecados mortales, deben ser confesados hasta las ofensas mas secretas y vergonzosas. El sacerdote no necesita saber todos los detalles, sino que él necesita saber que es lo que se está confesando. Aunque no es necesario, la Iglesia recomienda la confesión de los pecados veniales. Cualquier persona, que sepa que está en pecado mortal no debe recibir el sacramento de la Eucaristía sin antes irse a confesar. Confesar nuestros pecados al sacerdote (confesión) es solo una parte del sacramento. El dolor verdadero de nuestras faltas (contrición) un cambio de (conversión) son también absolutamente necesarios; la fe en Dios, a su amor misericordioso, palabras de consejo, la absolución del sacerdote y la curación de nuestra relación con Dios, forman las partes vitales del proceso. La celebración del Sacramento de Penitencia siempre debe comenzar con un cuidadoso examen de conciencia, en el cual no solamente deben ir los pecados veniales cometidos, sino también los pecados de omisión, … nuestros fracasos a hacer las cosas bien. Un buen examen de conciencia busca aquellas cosas que nos separan del amor de Dios y de nuestros semejantes. Esto generalmente incluye el egoísmo y la pereza de una forma y otra. Este proceso, no depende de nosotros solamente sino de la gracia de Dios y la presencia del Espíritu Santo que está en nosotros, aun cuando estamos en un pecado grave/mortal. Expresamos la contrición o el dolor de nuestros pecados y la resolución de no volver a pecar otra vez. Después de confesar nuestros pecados al sacerdote, recibimos la absolución. Solamente Dios perdona nuestros pecados, pero el sacerdote está ahí en presencia de Cristo y ofrece el perdón de Dios con el perdón humano con respecto al daño hecho a nivel personal y comunal. Después de dar la absolución, el sacerdote puede dar la penitencia (también conocida como la restitución. La penitencia impuesta por el sacerdote en la confesión corresponde con la gravedad de los pecados. Es dada para reparar el daño causado por el pecado. La penitencia puede incluir restitución o compensación, oración, actos de caridad, trabajos de misericordia o servicio. No deberá ser difícil de cumplir. El sacramento de Reconciliación existe para restaurar la gracia de Dios, y reconectarnos con Él como sus hijos adoptivos en Cristo. Visto desde este punto de vista, el sacramento no debe de convertirse en algo temido, sino la oportunidad de ser curados de aquellas cosas que nos separan de Dios y de nuestro prójimo. El sacramento de la Reconciliación se convierte en la oportunidad que no solo nos libera de nuestro pecado, sino que restaura y aumenta la gracia existente, la vida en Cristo resucitado dentro de nosotros. Hasta el punto de expresar dolor de los pecados, por haber ofendido a Dios, y no por el miedo al infierno, y en esto seremos lo suficientemente honestos y cuidadosos como sea posible, y poder llegar a tener una confesión que nos permita llegar casi al estado de gracia que obtuvimos en el momento de nuestro bautismo.

Contemplative Outreach of Dallas presents Dimensions of the Human Condition: The Soul's Hunger for Intimacy on Sat., March 19, from 9:30AM to 3PM at St Monica Catholic Church, Dallas. The featured speakers are Fr Bill Sheehan, OMI, and Kess Frey. They will discuss the pursuit of intimacy and love from human and spiritual perspectives. The "fallen" human condition gives rise to acute feelings of aloneness and incompleteness and a "hole in the soul" in each of us. We try to fill this hole by pursuing various desires in human relationships, especially intimacy and love. Knowingly or unknowingly, what we all need and long for is the love of God in our soul -- the only permanent solution to this universal human dilemma.

Todos conocemos que la doctrina de la Iglesia Católica sobre la Misa hace énfasis en la presencia real de Cristo en el Sacramento de la Eucaristía. Pero, ¿qué significa exactamente ésta doctrina? Si Jesús está realmente presente en la Eucaristía, ¿cómo podemos desatar el poder de su presencia para que cada Misa sea una experiencia que transforme nuestras vidas? ¿Qué le dice a la persona que cree en Dios pero no ve la necesidad de una “Religión organizada”? ¿Qué tal el católico que prefiere ir a la Iglesia Protestante porque tanto lo que predican como la música es mejor? Si usted tiene una relación personal con Jesús, conoce a Dios como Padre, esta lleno del Espíritu Santo y lee la Biblia, ¿porqué molestarse en ser católico? Desatando el poder transformador de la presencia real de Cristo ¿Porque ser católico? 28 DE FEBRERO DEL 2016 FEBRUARY 28, 2016 CALENDARIO CUARESMAL Penitencia Parroquial 6 – 7:30 PM Parish Penance Evenings 6 – 7:30 PM Monday, February 29 Tuesday, March 1 Thursday March 3 Monday, March 7 Tuesday, March 8 Thursday, March 10 Monday, March 14 Tuesday, March 15 Thursday, March 17 Monday, March 21 Tuesday, March 22 Wednesday, March 23 Lunes, 29 de febrero Martes, 1 de marzo Jueves 3 de marzo Lunes, 7 de marzo Martes, 8 de marzo Jueves, 10 de marzo Lunes, 14 de marzo Martes, 15 de marzo Jueves, 17 de marzo Lunes, 21 de marzo Martes, 22 de marzo Miércoles, 23 de marzo Reconciliation will also be offered after the 6:30 and 8:30AM daily Mass.
