GRACIAS POR SU CONTINUA GENEROSIDAD!
WORKS-IN-PROGRESS
We are called to change - to constant
conversion every single day of our lives. God is
continually working on us; none of us is a
finished product. We are continually called to a
deeper relationship with Christ and a great
understanding of who Jesus is.
In today’s Gospel, Jesus goes through a
change - which gives Peter, James and John a
sneak peek of his post-Resurrection glory. But
Peter, James and John go through a change,
too. They were set on fire in the presence of
the transfigured Christ. Peter exclaimed,
“Rabbi, it is good that we are here!” Jesus was
bringing them more deeply into the mystery of the Messiah and Peter
wanted to remain in that moment.
Jesus wants to reveal himself to us this Lent in a new way and, in doing
so, bring us to a place of conversion as well. We need to be set on fire
in the presence of the transfigured Christ.
It is in this presence that we may face a painful realization – we are
wrecked with sin. The season of Lent is a season of penance for this
reason; we recognize that sin has made our lives messy and we need a
savior. We stand at the mountain with the Transfigured Christ and fall
on our faces, pleading for the Lord’s mercy.
This is the moment of conversion; it is the mountaintop experience
when we realize that Christ is more than a prophet or a teacher but that
Jesus is our savior. It is that moment when we realize that, in Christ, we
are made new and glorified. This week as we approach the
mountaintop with Peter, James, and John we are mindful of the ways
that we are still works-in-progress, and rejoice in the glimpse of what is
to come in our Transfigured Lord.©2014 Life Teen, Inc.

BISHOP’S ANNUAL APPEAL
Please see page #10 for more
information. Our Bishop’s Annual
Appeal for Ministries pledge is part of
our Christian stewardship of treasure.
Our motivation for giving is gratitude
for all the blessings we have received from God. We must ask
ourselves, what return shall we make to the Lord? Please remember: no
gift is too small. Let God’s love shine through your generosity.

REFLECTION
Having heard this passage many times before,
I still feel like I am left with more questions
than answers. Why did Elijah and Moses
appear? Why were the three apostles
terrified? Why did Jesus not want them to
speak a word about what they had seen? I
have often found it frustrating that I didn’t know
more about what was going on the mountain.
And yet, after reflecting upon this, I realize that
this allows me to relate to what it must have
been like for the apostles as they followed
Jesus. Even here, I see the three questioning
what Jesus said to them. As I follow the Lord
in my own life, I need to be humble enough to
acknowledge that I do not have all the
answers, but through complete faith I will be
led where the Spirit wants me to go.

TRABAJO-EN-PROGRESO
Estamos llamados a cambiar – a una
constante conversión cada día de nuestras
vidas. Dios está trabajando continuamente en
nosotros; Ninguno de nosotros es un producto
terminado. Continuamente estamos llamados
a una relación más profunda con Cristo y con
una gran comprensión de quién es Jesús.
En el Evangelio de hoy Jesús pasa a través de
un cambio - que da a Pedro, Jaime y Juan un
adelanto de su gloria de post-resurrección.
Pero Pedro, Jaime y Juan también pasan por
un cambio. Sus corazones ardieron ante la
presencia de Cristo transfigurado. Pedro
exclamó: "Maestro, ¡qué a gusto estamos
aquí!" Jesús los estaba llevando más profundamente en el misterio del
Mesías y Pedro quería permanecer en ese momento.
Jesús desea revelarse a nosotros esta Cuaresma de una manera
nueva y, al hacerlo, también nos trae a un lugar de conversión. Nuestro
corazón tiene que arder ante la presencia de Cristo transfigurado.
Es en esta presencia que podemos enfrentar una dolorosa realización
– estamos destrozados por el pecado. El tiempo de Cuaresma es un
tiempo de penitencia por esta razón; Reconocemos que el pecado ha
hecho nuestra vida un desastre y necesitamos a un Salvador. Estamos
presentes en la montaña con Cristo transfigurado que se postra frente
a nosotros, abogando por la misericordia del señor
Este es el momento de conversión; es la experiencia en la cima de la
montaña cuando nos damos cuenta de que Cristo es más que un
profeta o un maestro pero que Jesús es nuestro Salvador. Es ese
momento cuando nos damos cuenta de que, en Cristo, volvemos a
hacer nuevos y ser glorificados. Esta semana al acercarnos a la cima
de la montaña con Pedro, Jaime y Juan entramos conscientes de las
formas en que somos todavía trabajo-en-progreso y nos regocijamos
en la visión de lo que está por venir en nuestro Señor Transfigurado.

MARCH 1, 2015 - SECOND SUNDAY OF LENT
OTHER NEWS & ANNOUNCEMENTS
ReflecƟons
on Sunday's
Readings
Sacredness and Dignity of the
Human Person
When God created us, he made us in his
image and likeness. That means that every
human being has a special value and
purpose. We need to care for each other so
that we can be the people that God calls us
to be.
✝ God never leaves us. He created each of
us as unique, valuable persons and works
actively in our lives, desiring that we grow
closer to him. How has God been at work
in our lives during these first days of
Lent?
✝ Today’s readings show us that God
gives tangible reminders of his committed
love and his desire to be present to us: the
rainbow after the flood, Jesus’ preaching,
the waters of Baptism. How do we act as
tangible reminders of God’s love,
especially to those who are most in need?
✝ This week’s CRS Rice Bowl Story of
Hope takes us to Tanzania, where we are
reminded of the important role a
community can play in supporting an
individual’s work. This takes trust and
commitment—two themes apparent in
today’s readings. Am I committed to
myself, my God and my neighbor? How
do I show this trust and commitment, and
where is there room for growth?
Hungering for a Better Life Our journey
with CRS Rice Bowl begins in Tanzania,
where a simple soybean is changing lives!
What actions can you take this Lent to
change lives—at home and around the
BISHOP’S ANNUAL APPEAL
The Bishop’s Annual Appeal (BAA) begins in the fall of each year and
provides for a critical portion of the yearly funding needed to support
key ministries and services which are administered by the bishop’s
staff at the diocesan offices. A sacrificial offering to the Annual Appeal
affirms your support of these four important diocesan ministries;
Seminarians/Vocations, Catechetic, Family Life and Youth Ministries.
All of these ministries are important components to the vitality and
future of the church as they assure the education and formation of our
priests, provide for the spiritual foundation of children and adults, help
to strengthen family life and marriages as well as engaging our youth
in the Catholic faith.
Bishop Armando X. Ochoa notes that fundamental to our lives as
Catholics is the realization that everything we have is a gift from God
and that we are called to be stewards of God’s abundant blessings by
sharing our gifts and by living our mission to go forth as instruments of
the Lord with renewed conviction, with confidence and hope. Please
remember: no gift is too small. Let God’s love shine through your
generosity.
To the many parishioner/donors to the appeal,
Bishop Ochoa is always thankful for your support
of our diocesan ministries and vocations. Bishop
Ochoa also recognizes the sacrificial giving of our
parishioners throughout our diocese and also
acknowledges the tireless efforts of our priests in
promoting this important campaign. The Annual
Appeal is scheduled to conclude in June of 2014
although individual donors may continue to pay
on their campaign pledges through the end of the
summer. Remember that if every Catholic in the
Diocese of Fresno contributed $5 to the appeal,
we would easily surpass our goal of $900,000.
You can make your contribution online through
PayPal through the Diocese of Fresno webpage. Just select your
parish (St. Anthony of Padua) then click the Donate button. Just $5
per Catholic! Won’t you help?
