Donations to the Bishop’s Ministry appeal help support the young men who have been called by God to the priesthood. The diocese bears the cost of tuition, room and board for each of our seminarians. By supporting our seminarians throughout discernment, they have the freedom to follow God’s will without asking, “Can I afford it?” Most candidates come with no independent means of support, no “nest egg.” With your gifts, money will never serve as a roadblock between young men and the priesthood. “Money can never be an issue for a viable candidate,” says Bishop Stephen Blaire. It costs the diocese over $35,000 each year for each of our seminarians. This includes room and board, tuition, books, medical insurance, and a small annual stipend. The road to becoming a priest is challenging, long, and expensive. It is important to support the young men who have heard the call from God. What can you do? Donating to the Bishop’s Ministry Appeal gives us the opportunity to participate in the work Jesus calls us to do. Pray for our seminarians.. PRESENTATION PARISH SCHOOL 1635 W.

(4) MINISTERIO EN ESPAÑOL. ADULT FORMATION. Segundo Domingo de Cuaresma. Question of the Week/Pregunta de la Semana March 1 Second Sunday of Lent. ESCUCHA Y SIGUE “Este es mi Hijo amado; escúchenlo”. Y sí que lo escucharon. Desde ese momento, Pedro, Santiago y Juan fueron sus ardientes seguidores, desechándolo todo para seguir las huellas del Maestro. Tal como proclama el salmista, “Señor, he aquí tu servidor”, los tres discípulos se comprometieron a vidas de increíbles penurias e indescriptible gozo. Después de ese día en la montaña, nunca más dudaron de la vocación escogida. Aunque nuestras pruebas no sean tan severas como la de Abraham, ni nuestros momentos sublimes tan dramáticos como la Transfiguración, todos confrontamos los retos cotidianos de caminar “en presencia del Señor en el país de la vida”. Mientras seguimos nuestros diversos llamados a amar y servir, seamos confortados por lo que Pablo les recuerda a los romanos: “Si Dios está a nuestro favor, ¿quién estará en contra nuestra?”. Gospel: Mark 9:2–10 Adults: How deeply do I believe that God is for me, and no one can destroy me? Children: What would I ask God to do for me or my family? Evangelio: Marco 9:2–10 Adultos: ¿Qué tan convencido estoy de que Dios me ha escogido, y de que nada me puede vencer? Niños: ¿Qué me gustaría pedir a Dios que hiciera por mí o por mi familia?. LECTURAS DE HOY Primera lectura — Dios puso a prueba la devoción de Abraham al pedirle que sacrificara a su hijo Isaac (Génesis 22:1-2, 9a, 10-13, 15-18). Salmo — Siempre confiaré en el Señor (Salmo 116 [115]). Segunda lectura — Dios entregó a su único Hijo para que ahora interceda por nosotros (Romanos 8:31b-34). Evangelio — Jesús, acompañado por Elías y Moisés, se transforma de manera luminosa ante Pedro, Santiago y Juan (Marcos 9:2-10). LECTURAS DE LA SEMANA Lunes:. Dn 9:4b-10; Sal 79 (78):8, 9, 11, 13; Lc 6:36-38 Martes: Is 1:10, 16-20; Sal 50 (49):8-9, 16bc-17, 21, 23; Mt 23:1-12 Miércoles:Jer 18:18-20; Sal 31 (30):5-6, 14-16; Mt 20:17-28 Jueves: Jer 17:5-10; Sal 1:1-4, 6; Lc 16:19-31 Viernes: Gn 37:3-4, 12-13a, 17b-28a; Sal 105 (104): 16-21; Mt 21:33-43, 45-46 Sábado: Mi 7:14-15, 18-20; Sal 103 (102):1-4, 9-12; Lc 15:1-3, 11-32 Domingo: Ex 20:1-17 [1-3, 7-8, 12-17]; Sal 19 (18):8-11; 1 Cor 1:22-25; Jn 2:13-25 Lecturas alternativas (Año A): Ex 17:3-7; Sal 95 (94):1-2, 6-9; Rom 5:1-2, 5-8; Jn 4:5-42 [5-15, 19b-26, 39a, 40-42].

Guadalupe Hall BYOB (Bring your own bowl) Donations accepted at the door.. GOT PRAYER?. Please share it with a child of God… The children of Presentation School and the Religious Education Program are preparing to receive their First Holy Communion with our Church community in April and in May. Each child has decorated his/her own Eucharist ornament. In the first week of March, these ornaments will be displayed in the baptismal font in the center of the Church. We invite you to take an ornament and we ask that you pray for this child daily during their preparation. On behalf of the children and families, we thank you.

(6) Monsignor’s Corner DIVINIZATION: This idea is as old as Athanasius, a 4th Century bishop: “The Son of God became man so that man might become God.” In the 13th Century St. Thomas Aquinas said: “The Son of God, wanting to make us sharers in his divinity, assumed our nature, so that He, made man, might make men Gods.” In 1994 the Catholic Catechism tells us: “The Word became flesh to make us partakers of the divine nature.” (#460) OMG During Lent let’s work on this challenge. Msgr. Larry. Our Lenten offering will assist the…. Red Rhino Orphanage Project..
