The Baptism of the Lord (Cycle C)
Pastor’s Corner
Today we celebrate the feast of the baptism of the Lord. With His baptism,
Jesus starts His public life. He starts to fulfill what God promised in the first
reading. Jesus teaches what it means to be faithful to God by loving the poor,
forgiving those who have injured us, loving with all our hearts. He calls us to a
conversion of heart so that we may live only for God.
Like Christ, we have been chosen by God. In baptism we have been signed with
holy oil so that we may preach the kingdom of justice and give witness to our
faith. We have received the Holy Spirit and in a very special way we are other
christs, anointed ones, in today’s world. In a certain way, today’s first reading
explains what we as Christians do through baptism. How do we carry this out
in our daily life? Everything we do must have Christ’s life as its foundation. At
home, at work, in the street or in school, among friends, enemies, relatives and
foreigners, we are Christ’s light and witnesses.

El Bautismo del Señor (Ciclo C)
Rincón del Párroco
Hoy celebramos la fiesta del bautismo del Señor. Con su bautismo Jesús empieza su
vida pública. El empieza a cumplir lo que Dios prometió en la primera lectura. Jesús
enseña lo que es ser fiel a Dios, amando a los pobres, perdonando a los que nos han
hecho mal, amando con todo el corazón y nos llama a una conversión de vida, para
vivir solamente para Dios.
Como Cristo, somos escogidos por Dios. En el bautismo hemos sido separados por el
óleo santo para predicar el reino de la justicia y dar testimonio de nuestra fe. Nosotros
hemos recibido el Espíritu Santo y en una manera muy especial somos otros cristos en
el mundo de hoy. En una manera, la primera lectura de hoy dice lo que nosotros,
como cristianos, hacemos por el bautismo. ¿Cómo realizamos esto en nuestra vida
diaria? Todo lo que hacemos debe tener como base la vida de Cristo. En el hogar, en
el trabajo, en la calle o colegio; entre amigos; enemigos, parientes y extranjeros,
nosotros somos luz y testigos de Cristo.
Sinceras gracias a todos los que asistieron a la fiesta de la Epifanía el viernes pasado.
Fue un placer verlos allá.
Al acercarse el comienzo de la campaña ABCD, les ruego a todos considerar en la
oración cuál será su contribución sacrificial a esta campaña.

2016 Archbishop’s Charity and Development Drive (ABCD) Begins
As we begin the 2016 year, let us reflect on the many blessings in our lives. When
we truly believe that all we have is a gift from God, then we must be willing to give
up some things so that we can share our blessings as God intended. Living a
stewardship lifestyle means not only being responsible for our own life, but the
lives of others as well.
Jesus teaches us that we are called to serve one another. Sacrifice is not a word
that many people like to hear. We think it means that we must give up something
that we want. However, the literal meaning of sacrifice is “to make holy,” from the
words of “sacer” meaning sacred and “facere” meaning to make. In other words,
we make our lives holy by sharing our gifts in the service of God.
Soon we will be asking you to make a contribution to this year’s ABCD, please
take this time to prayerfully consider what sacrificial gift you will be able to place at
God’s service.
If anyone wishes to be first, he shall be the last of all and the servant of all. Mark 9:35.

Comienza la Campaña de Caridades y Desarrollo del Arzobispo (ABCD)
2016
Al comenzar el año 2016, reflexionemos sobre las muchas bendiciones que tenemos en
nuestras vidas. Cuando realmente creemos que todo lo que tenemos es un regalo de Dios,
entonces debemos estar dispuestos a renunciar a algunas cosas para poder compartir
nuestras bendiciones como Dios manda. Vivir la vida según el estilo de la mayordomía
significa no sólo ser responsables de nuestra propia vida, sino de las vidas de los demás.
Jesús nos enseña que estamos llamados a servirnos los unos a los otros. “Sacrificio” no es
una palabra que a mucha gente le gusta oír. Creemos que esto significa que debemos
renunciar a algo que queremos. Sin embargo, el significado literal de sacrificio es
“santificar”, hacer que algo sea santo, y proviene de las palabras latinas “sacer”, que
significa sagrado, y “facere”, que significa hacer. En otras palabras, hacemos que nuestra
vida sea santa compartiendo nuestros dones al servicio de Dios.
Pronto les pediremos que hagan una contribución al ABCD de este año; por favor, dedique
este tiempo a considerar en oración qué donativo sacrificial será usted capaz de poner al
servicio de Dios.
Si alguno quiere ser el primero, que sea el último de todos y el servidor de todos.
Marcos 9:35.

January 13, St. Hilary was Bishop of Poitiers and is a Doctor of
the Church. He was sometimes referred to as the "Hammer of
the Arians" (Latin: Malleus Arianorum) and the "Athanasius of the
West." His name comes from the Latin word for happy or
cheerful. Exiled to present-day Turkey by the emperor, there
Hilary composed his great doctrinal work On the Trinity.
Enero 13, San Hilario, obispo de Poitiers y doctor de la Iglesia,
conocido como el “Martillo de los Arrianos” y también como el
“Atanasio de Occidente”. Exiliado en Turquía por el emperador, allí

The Jubilee of Mercy /El Jubileo de la
Misericordia
Overcome Indifference and Win Peace
Message of Pope Francis
for the World Day of Peace 2016
We continue to trust that 2016 will see us all firmly and confidently engaged, on different
levels, in the pursuit of justice and peace. Peace is both God’s gift and a human achievement.
As a gift of God, it is entrusted to all men and women, who are called to attain it.
Along these same lines, with the present Jubilee of Mercy I want to invite the Church to pray
and work so that every Christian will have a humble and compassionate heart, one capable
of proclaiming and witnessing to mercy. It is my hope that all of us will learn to “forgive and
give”, to become more open “to those living on the outermost fringes of society - fringes
which modern society itself creates”, and to refuse to fall into “a humiliating indifference or a
monotonous routine which prevents us from discovering what is new! Let us ward off
destructive cynicism!”
We too, then, are called to make compassion, love, mercy and solidarity a true way of life, a
rule of conduct in our relationships with one another. This requires the conversion of our
hearts: the grace of God has to turn our hearts of stone into hearts of flesh (cf. Ezek 36:26),
open to others in authentic solidarity. For solidarity is much more than a “feeling of vague
compassion or shallow distress at the misfortunes of so many people, both near and far”.
Solidarity is “a firm and persevering determination to commit oneself to the common good;
that is to say to the good of all and of each individual, because we are all really responsible
for all”, because compassion flows from fraternity.
Vence la indiferencia y conquista la paz
Mensaje del Papa Francisco
para la Jornada Mundial de la Paz 2016
… no perdamos la esperanza de que 2016 nos encuentre a todos firme y confiadamente
comprometidos, en realizar la justicia y trabajar por la paz en los diversos ámbitos. Sí, la paz es don
de Dios y obra de los hombres. La paz es don de Dios, pero confiado a todos los hombres y a todas
las mujeres, llamados a llevarlo a la práctica.
En esta misma perspectiva, con el Jubileo de la Misericordia, deseo invitar a la Iglesia a rezar y
trabajar para que todo cristiano pueda desarrollar un corazón humilde y compasivo, capaz de
anunciar y testimoniar la misericordia, de “perdonar y de dar”, de abrirse “a cuantos viven en las
más contradictorias periferias existenciales, que con frecuencia el mundo moderno dramáticamente
crea”, sin caer “en la indiferencia que humilla, en la habitualidad que anestesia el ánimo e impide
descubrir la novedad, en el cinismo que destruye”.
También nosotros estamos llamados a que el amor, la compasión, la misericordia y la solidaridad
sean nuestro verdadero programa de vida, un estilo de comportamiento en nuestras relaciones de
los unos con los otros. Esto pide la conversión del corazón: que la gracia de Dios transforme nuestro
corazón de piedra en un corazón de carne (cf. Ez 36,26), capaz de abrirse a los otros con auténtica
solidaridad. Esta es mucho más que un “sentimiento superficial por los males de tantas personas,
cercanas o lejanas”. La solidaridad “es la determinación firme y perseverante de empeñarse por el
bien común; es decir, por el bien de todos y cada uno, para que todos seamos verdaderamente
responsables de todos”, porque la compasión surge de la fraternidad.

PLANNING FOR THE FUTURE
Did you know that less than half of all people have a will or an estate plan? A will ensures
that your intentions for taking care of loved ones and distributing property are legally fulfilled.
Be one of those who have chosen to be a good steward, and take the time to prepare a will
or estate plan. We appreciate any consideration for a gift to St. Hugh. For more information,
contact the rectory or call the Office of Planned Giving at (305) 762-1110.
PLANEANDO PARA EL FUTURO
¿Sabía usted que menos de la mitad de todas las personas disponen de un testamento o de un
documento de última voluntad? La última voluntad garantiza que sus intenciones para cuidar de sus
seres queridos y distribuir sus propiedades se cumplan legalmente. Conviértase en una de las
personas que han decidido ser buenos administradores, y ocúpese de preparar su testamento o
última voluntad. Le agradeceremos cualquier donación que haga a la Parroquia de St. Hugh. Para
más información, póngase en contacto con la Oficina de Donaciones Planificadas al (305) 762-1110.

Christmas Celebration
Saint Hugh students in Pre-K 3
through 2nd grade celebrated the
start of Christmas with a school
recital for family and friends.
There were performances of
Christmas songs from around the
world and dance numbers by the
beginning flamenco and ballet
dancers under the guidance of
their dance instructor, Heydi
Pinero. The show concluded
with the Kindergarten’s class
reenactment of the Nativity
scene. It was the perfect ending
to the performance and
reminder of the Christmas
message.
Saint/Blessed of the Month:
Blessed Sara Salkahazy
Blessed Sara Salkahazi was a Hungarian teacher and writer
who took the initiative to shelter Jewish refugees during
World War II. She is credited with saving the lives of a
hundred Jews, and her order protected more than a
thousand. She took as her motto the words of the prophet
Isaiah: “Here I am, send me!” (Isaiah 6:8) She offered her
talents as a writer, teacher and organizer in the service of
Christ. She wanted to do whatever she could to promote
justice for all people.
