Hello!
I'd like to share with you thoughts from Pope Francis'
Lenten Message which I think as I found challenging, so might
you.
Our Parochial Vicar, Fr. Chuck
"For all of us, then, the season of Lent in this Jubilee
Year is a favorable time to overcome our existential alienation by listening to God's word
and by practicing the works of Mercy."
In Pope Francis' Lenten Message for this year, he incorporates the fact that our
Church is experiencing a Jubilee year of renewal. In this document (which can be found
with a simple Google search Pope Francis Lenten Message 2016) Pope Francis reflects on
the astounding reality of God's super-abundant Mercy. He points to the witness given by
the Prophet Hosea. As Hosea's love for Gomer persevered through infidelity and every
difficulty, so God's love is unfaltering towards us even through all our infidelities. His love
for us is imaged as that of a spouse. This spousal imagery culminates in the offering of
Jesus Christ Himself for His bride, the Church. This love which is lavished upon is the
reality and our experience of God's Mercy. God's Mercy towards us is as eternal as His
Love.
While it is my prayer that each of us know the reality of God's merciful and superabundant love, it is our call as Christians to allow others to experience and encounter that
Love through us. Belief in Jesus Christ and Love for Him must go beyond mere sentiment,
personal benefit, or cultural ties. As the love of a spouse tangibly changes your life, so does
the love of Christ tangibly change your life. We are invited to become tangible experiences
of God's Mercy in the lives of others, "For in the Poor, the flesh of Christ "becomes
visible in the flesh of the tortured, the crushed, the scourged, the malnourished, and the
exiled… to be acknowledged, touched, and cared for by us. (Misericordiae Vultus).
It is Pope Francis' thinking that by reflecting on and practicing the Corporal and
Spiritual works of Mercy we may grow in greater awareness of our utter dependence on
God's care. This in fact may be what makes someone most uncomfortable of serving the
poor or the marginalized, "this person could be me." It brings us to confront the fragility
of our existence and more importantly the amount of care had for us. Pope Francis speaks
to this: "the real poor are revealed as those who refuse to see themselves as such." To
recognize our own poverty can be a terrible reality, our experiences of not being in control
force us to confront our reality of being Creatures and not the Creator. And yet, it is
necessary for us to realize God's Love for us--His super-abundant and gratuitous love.
"Let us not waste this season of Lent, so favorable a time for conversion!" Please
know of my prayers for you this Lenten season and may you and I both be challenged by
Our Holy Father's Lenten Address and experience the Grace of our Poverty.
Happy Lent-ing!

Stations in English and Spanish
a. The Stations of the Cross commemorates 14 key events on the day of Christ's
crucifixion. The majority depict His final walk through the streets of Jerusalem,
carrying the Cross. Stations can become a mini-retreat in Lent for those who
participate. St. Lawrence conducts Stations in English on Friday evenings at
6:30 PM in the church. Spanish Stations follow at 7:15 PM in the church.
Daily Mass.
a. The Mass celebrates the Paschal Mystery: the Passion, Death and Resurrection of
our Lord. Lent is a great time to attend a daily Mass, perhaps once a week or more
frequently, if possible. St. Lawrence’s daily Mass schedule includes a 6:30 AM and
8:30 AM Mass on Monday through Friday each week. On Saturday, our daily
Mass is at 8:30 AM. We celebrate a Spanish daily Mass at 7:00 PM Tuesday
evenings.
Saturday morning Novena to Our Lady of Perpetual Help
a. Following our 8:30 AM Saturday daily Mass, we pray a Novena to Our Lady of
Perpetual Help. In this special devotion, we implore the intercession of our
Mother Mary to assist us in all our needs. We also pray in thanksgiving for the
many blessings we have received. The icon of the Blessed Mother with her Divine
Son has helped provide strength, comfort and even miracles to the faithful for
centuries.
Readings from daily Mass at: usccb.org/bible/readings
a. If it is not possible to attend daily Mass, one might reflect upon the Reading from
daily Mass. Those readings may be found on the United States Bishop’s website
noted above.
Live Stations of the Cross
a. On Friday, March 18, 2016, the youth community of St. Lawrence presents a
dramatic interpretation of the Stations of the Cross. Live Stations begin at
7:30 PM in the church.
Liturgy of the Hours
a. The Liturgy of the Hours, also known as the Divine Office, is the daily prayer of
the Church, marking the hours of each day and sanctifying the day with prayer.
The Hours are a meditative dialogue on the mystery of Christ, using scripture and
prayer. One of the Hours is Morning Prayer. Morning Prayer is intended and
arranged to sanctify our morning each day. The Liturgy of the Hours may be
prayed individually or in community. At St. Lawrence, Morning Prayer is prayed in
community Monday through Saturday at 8:00 AM in the chapel.
Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament
a. Spending a quiet hour in front of the Blessed Sacrament can be a great way to
deepen your relationship with the Lord this Lent. The Blessed Sacrament is
exposed in the Christ Child Chapel (located on the northern border of the
St. Lawrence campus) beginning at 9:15 AM Thursday mornings and concluding
with Benediction on Saturday afternoons at 2:00 PM.
All are Welcome to

the same generosity, mercy and love toward others.
Help us to share our bread, our life, with those around

With grateful hearts we offer this prayer, through Jesus
Christ, your Son and our Lord.
Amen.

SEGUNDO DOMINGO DE CUARESMA
¡Hola!
Me gustaría compartir con ustedes las ideas del mensaje de
Cuaresma del Papa Francisco que creo que como a mi me pareció un
reto, a ustedes tambien podrían sentir lo mismo.
Nuestro Vicario
Parroquial P. Chuck
"Para todos nosotros, el tiempo de Cuaresma en este Año
Jubilar es un tiempo favorable para superar nuestra alienación existencial al escuchar la palabra
de Dios y por la práctica de las obras de misericordia."
En el Mensaje de Cuaresma el Papa Francisco para este año, se incorpora el hecho de
que nuestra Iglesia está experimentando un año de Jubileo de la renovación. En este documento
(que se puede encontrar con una búsqueda debajo de el Papa Francisco Mensaje de Cuaresma
2016 en Google), el Papa Francisco reflexiona sobre la realidad asombrosa de la Merced
sobreabundante de Dios. Señala el testimonio dado por el profeta Oseas. Como el amor de
Oseas por Gomer perseveró a través de la infidelidad y cada dificultad, por lo que el amor de
Dios es inquebrantable hacia nosotros, incluso a través de todas nuestras infidelidades. Su amor
por nosotros es proyectado como la de un cónyuge. Estas imágenes conyugal culmina en la
ofrenda de Jesucristo a sí mismo por su esposa, la Iglesia. Este amor que se prodiga es la
realidad y la experiencia de la misericordia de Dios. La misericordia de Dios hacia nosotros es
tan eterno como su amor.
Si bien es mi oración que cada uno de nosotros conocamos la realidad del amor
misericordioso y sobreabundante de Dios, que como llamados cristianos debemos permitir que
otros experimenten y encuentren el amor de Jesucristo a través de nosotros. La creencia en
Jesucristo y el amor por Él debe ir más allá de un sentimiento, beneficio personal, o los lazos
culturales. Como el amor de una pareja cambia la manera tangible de su vida, lo mismo ocurre
con el amor de Cristo . Se nos invita a convertirnos en experiencias tangibles de la Misericordia
de Dios en la vida de otros, "Porque en los pobres, la carne de Cristo" se hace visible en la
carne de los torturados, el triturado, el flagelado, los desnutridos, y los exiliados ... de ser
reconocido, tocado, y cuidado por nosotros. (Misericordiae Vultus).
Es el pensamiento de el Papa Francisco que mediante la reflexión sobre la práctica y el
cabo y las obras de misericordia espirituales podamos crecer en una mayor conciencia de
nuestra total dependencia de cuidado de Dios. De hecho, esto puede ser lo que hace que alguien
se sienta más incómodo de servir a los pobres o los marginados ", el pensar esta persona podría
ser yo." Que nos lleva a enfrentar la fragilidad de nuestra existencia y lo más importante la
cantidad de atención tenido para nosotros. El Papa Francisco habla de esto: "los verdaderos
pobres se revelan como aquellos que se niegan a verse a sí mismos como tales." Reconocer
nuestra propia pobreza puede ser una terrible realidad, nuestras experiencias de no estar en
vigor o control de las cosas que enfrentamos, nuestra realidad de ser criaturas y NO el
Creador. Y, sin embargo, es necesario que nos demos cuenta del amor de Dios por nosotros Su súper abundante y gratuito amor.
Domingo 4:00 ~ 4:45p.m.
"No desperdiciemos este tiempo de Cuaresma, un tiempo tan favorable para la
conversión!" Por favor, sepan que mis oraciones están con ustedes para que este tiempo de
Cuaresma no se desperdisiado y que usted y yo podramos enfrentar el reto de este tiempo de
conversion y recibir la dirección de Cuaresma de nuestro Santo Padre y la experiencia de la
gracia de nuestra pobreza.

Regulaciones en cuanto al Ayuno y Abstinencia
La doble disciplina del ayuno y abstinencia tienen una larga historia en la Iglesia Católica.
Volviendo al origen de la Iglesia primitiva, el propósito de negarse a sí mismo no es una
penitencia, es para simplificar nuestros estilos de vida para crear cierto vacío. De esta forma,
librados de todas las distracciones, podemos escuchar y responder al contínuo llamado de Dios a
la conversión y santidad.
•
El Ayuno debe ser observado el Miércoles de Ceniza y el Viernes Santo por todos los
Católicos en las edades de 18 a 59 años (incluido). En los días de ayuno, una comida
completa es permitida. Dos comidas más pequeñas, suficiente para mantener la fortaleza, de
acuerdo a nuestra necesidad, pero juntas no deben hacer una comida completa. Comer entre
comidas no está permitido, pero líquidos sí están permitidos.
•
Abstinencia de carne debe ser observada por todos los Católicos que tengan 14 años en
adelante. El Miércoles de Ceniza, y todos los Viernes de Cuaresma, incluyendo el Viernes
Santo, son días de abstinencia.
Note: Si una persona no puede observar estas regulaciones por enfermedad o razones serias, se le
anima a practicar otras formas de negación personal de acuerdo a sus condiciones.
El ayuno, la limosna, y la oración son las tres disciplinas tradicionales de Cuaresma. Los fieles y
catecúmenos deben emprender estas prácticas seriamente en un espíritu de penitencia y de
preparación por el bautismo o la renovación del bautismo en Pascua de Resurrección.
