SFDS Foodies
Thanks to everyone who joined us on Tuesday, January 12 for dinner at Brick Lane Curry House. It was an
evening filled with great conversation, lots of laughter,
and of course, good food. It's a great way to make new
friends, too. As one participant observed, "It's lovely to
turn around at mass for the sign of peace and see the
smile of someone you met through this group!"
Second Collection
There is a second collection on February 7, 2016 for Peter’s
Pence. Peter’s Pence is the name given to the financial support offered by the faithful to the Holy Father as a sign of
their sharing in the concern of the Successor of Peter for the
many different needs of the Universal Church and for the
relief of those most in need.
Welcome-Bienvenidos!

EL GRAN HIMNO AL AMOR
Cabe dudar que, cuando san Pablo se sentó a
escribir lo que ahora conocemos como el capítulo
trece de la primera carta a los corintios, supiera que
lo que estaba escribiendo se convertiría en una clave
principal de la ética cristiana. En este breve pasaje,
ha consignado ideales sobre el amor que se han mantenido firmes en el transcurso de los siglos. A veces
pensamos que porque estos son sólo ideales a los
que uno aspira, estamos libres de no practicarlos en
nuestra vida diaria.
Lo que Pablo estaba escribiendo era una carta a
sus amigos, dándoles buenos consejos sobre lo que
significaba –y todavía significa– vivir en el amor,
día a día, en seguimiento de Cristo. Encontramos en
las palabras a sus amigos una ampliación del gran
mandamiento de Jesús de amar a Dios y al prójimo.
Hoy en día escuchamos cómo este amor debe expresarse en nuestras acciones, y cómo debe regir nuestras relaciones con los demás.
