“Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that.
Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. Hate
multiplies hate, violence multiplies violence, and toughness
multiplies toughness in a descending spiral of
destruction....The chain reaction of evil–hate begetting
hate, wars producing more wars–must be broken, or we
shall be plunged into the dark abyss of annihilation.”

In the Gospel today, Jesus asks “What are you looking
for?” Often we are looking for happiness in very selfish
ways, but we find that when we look for ways to make
others happy, it is then that we truly become happy.
As you place your gift in the Society of St. Vincent
de Paul poor box, know that you are a sign of
God’s love to those who are suffering and you give
them reason to believe and to trust.
Neighbors in Need: Just recently, the SVDP
Society was notified by CCISD of a neighbor in great
need. This neighbor is a grandmother who has been
battling cancer while also raising several of her young
grandchildren. Because parishioners have heard God’s
call and responded so generously, we were able to
provide the funds needed to prevent the eviction.
Society of St. Vincent de Paul (Houston Council) is

***************************************
Wednesday, January 22, is the
day of prayer for the legal
protection of unborn children.
Today is the 2nd Sunday in Ordinary
Time What is Ordinary Time?
The rhythm of the liturgical seasons reflects the
rhythm of life — with its celebrations and its
seasons of quiet growth and maturing.
Ordinary Time, meaning ordered or numbered
time, is celebrated in two segments: from the
Monday following the Baptism of Our Lord up to
Ash Wednesday; and from Pentecost Monday to
the First Sunday of Advent. This makes it the
largest season of the Liturgical Year.
The color of the vestments during this time is
green, the color of hope and growth. The Church
counts the thirty-three or thirty-four Sundays of
Ordinary Time, inviting her children to meditate
upon the whole mystery of Christ – his life,
miracles and teachings – in the light of his
Resurrection.
If the faithful are to mature in the spiritual life
and increase in faith, they must descend the
great mountain peaks of Easter and Christmas in
order to "pasture" in the vast verdant meadows
of tempus per annum, or Ordinary Time.
Sunday by Sunday, the Pilgrim Church marks her
journey through the tempus per annum as she
processes through time toward eternity.
from Deacon Jerry and Rosalie
Daves…Thanks to Lynne
Knobloch for watering our 72
poinsettias and keeping them
looking beautiful throughout the
Christmas season.

La Unción de los Enfermos
¿Qué es la Unción de
Enfermos? Es el sacramento
que da la Iglesia para atraer la
salud de alma, espíritu y cuerpo
al cristiano en estado de
enfermedad grave o vejez.
El Sacramento de la Unción de Enfermos confiere al
cristiano una gracia especial para enfrentar las
dificultades propias de una enfermedad grave o vejez.
Se le conoce también como el "sagra viático", porque es
el recurso, el "refrigerio" que lleva el cristiano para poder
sobrellevar con fortaleza y en estado de gracia un
momento de tránsito, especialmente el tránsito a la
Casa del Padre a través de la muerte. Lo esencial del
sacramento consiste en ungir la frente y las manos del
enfermo acompañado de una oración litúrgica realizada
por el sacerdote o el obispo, únicos ministros que
pueden administrar este sacramento. La Unción de
enfermos se conocía antes como "Extrema Unción",
pues sólo se administraba "in articulo mortis" (a punto
de morir). Actualmente el sacramento se puede
administrar más de una vez, siempre que sea en caso
de enfermedad grave. ¿Qué efectos tiene la Unción
de enfermos? La unción une al enfermo a la Pasión de
Cristo para su bien y el de toda la Iglesia; obtiene
consuelo, paz y ánimo; obtiene el perdón de los
pecados (si el enfermo no ha podido obtenerlo por el
sacramento de la reconciliación), restablece la salud
corporal (si conviene a la salud espiritual) y prepara para
el paso a la vida eterna. Tomado de www.aciprensa.com

Personal Integrity, Truth in
Relationships, Media Literacy:
The 8th Commandment is
Tougher than you Think!
In our society, relativism challenges our ability to tell the
truth because it claims there is no objective truth. This
attitude undermines the distinction between truth and lies; it
leads to an environment of deceit. The Church calls us back
to the reality of objective truth and to the link between
doctrinal truth and everyday life. Find out more about what it
means to keep the 8th commandment by attending this
interesting discussion facilitated by author, teacher and
theologian, Julie Dienno-Demarest, on Tuesday, January 27,
from 7:30-9 PM in Room 10. The next discussion centers on
the 9th commandment and is entitled: Modesty, the Media,
and Theology of the Body. It’s set for Tuesday, February 10.
Same time. Same place. All are welcome to attend!
