Mass Requests
Please stop by the Parish Office if you
would like to request a Mass to be prayed
for a special intention.
Jesus started His public ministry. Jesus, Mary and His
disciples were invited to a Jewish wedding, a weeklong
custom and tradition.
The wedding feast at Cana is traditionally understood
to be the first of seven signs Jesus performs in the first
half of John’s Gospel. A sign is what the Synoptic
Gospels refer to as a miracle. In the Gospel of John,
however, a sign plays a very specific role of revealing
some aspect of Jesus’ glory as the Son of God.
At one point in our life, we have attended a feast, be it
family, friends, relatives, groups, etc. In that feast, we
can tell how the host and the attendees enjoy the
presence of each one with the sumptuous food and
choice wine and drinks prepared by the host. And if
the feast is cut short because of lack of food and
beverages, the host will definitely be in
embarrassment. But, through the intercession of His
Mother Mary, Jesus was also concerned about the
wedding feast. This wondrous sign reveals again His
divine identity as the Son of God.

Thank you for your ongoing generosity! On
these cold days more canned soup would be
great! Also, we are always in need of bathroom tissue.
ASH WEDNESDAY
If you have palms which were blessed on
Palm Sunday last year, bring them back to
be collected in a basket in the vestibule.
We will burn them to be used for Ash Wednesday this
year. Bring them Sunday, January 24 or January 31.
Thank you!

Esquina del Padre Martín
Jesus comenzo su ministerio publico. Jesus, María y sus
discípulos fueron invitados a una boda judía, una
tradicion y costumbre por toda una semana.
La fiesta de las bodas en Cana se entiende
tradicionalmente como el primero de los siete signos
que Jesus realiza en la primera mitad del Evangelio de
Juan. Un signo en los evangelios sinopticos es como
decir un milagro. En el Evangelio de Juan, sin embargo,
un signo juega un papel muy específico al revelar algun
aspecto de la gloria de Jesus como el hijo de Dios.
En un momento de nuestra vida, hemos asistido a una
fiesta, sea familiar, de amigos, de parientes, o de
grupo, etc. En esa fiesta, podemos decir como el
anfitrion y los asistentes disfrutan de la presencia de
cada uno, aunandose la suntuosa comida, vino y
bebidas preparadas por el anfitrion. Y si la fiesta se
corta debido a la falta de alimentos y bebidas, el
anfitrion sera definitivamente en verguenza. Sin
embargo, a traves de la intercesion de su madre Mary,
Jesus tambien estaba preocupado por la fiesta de
bodas. Este signo maravilloso otra vez revela su
identidad divina como hijo de Dios.
