MASSES
Dear Friends,
I would like to draw your attention to the seriousness of the coro-navirus that is posing serious danger in many parts of the world. As of Tuesday, there were 4 cases in the Bay area. Let us continue to pray for those facing this terrible tragedy in China and its neigh-borhood. Let us keep the safety of our doctors, nurses and all those who work with patients in our prayers.
The Vatican donated thousands of protective masks to several Chinese provinces affected by the outbreak of the deadly coronavirus. In an email to Catholic News Service Feb. 3, the Vatican press office confirmed a report that appeared in the Chinese newspaper The Global Times, which said that since Jan. 27, the Vatican has sent 600,000-700,000 protective masks to China. The masks are destined to the provinces of Hubei, Zhejiang and Fujian. It is a joint initiative of the Office of Papal Charities and the Chinese Church in Italy, in collaboration with the Vat-ican pharmacy.
According to the Global Times report, Chinese Father Vincenzo Han Duo, vice rector of Rome's Pontifical Urbanian College, said the donation was made possi-ble with the help of Cardinal Konrad Krajewski, the papal almoner. The masks were paid for by the Vatican and Chinese Christian communities in Italy, while airline companies, including China Southern Airlines, provided free shipment, the report said. "I hope the supplies could reach where they are needed as soon as possible, so that people who are suffering the disease could feel the concern from the Holy See. The whole world is standing together to fight the virus," Father Han told The Global Times.
During his Sunday Angelus address Pope Francis expressed condolences to the victims of the virus and his support for efforts to fight its spread. "I wish to be close to and pray for the people who are sick because of the virus that has spread through China," the pope said. "May the Lord welcome the dead into his peace, comfort families and sustain the great commitment by the Chinese community that has already been put in place to combat the epidemic."
At church, I would ask all ministers to abstain from ministry if you have a cold or flu. Some of the Diocesan guidelines in the affected area included cleaning directions — including microphones used by lectors — and instructed people to bow their heads instead of shaking hands during the sign of peace. Persons dis-playing flu-like symptoms, e.g. fever, runny nose, sore throat, cough, cold, etc. are advised to stay home and avoid public places including churches. It is not a sin to miss Mass on Sundays or holy days of obligation if one is sick. For those not able to attend mass for these reasons, they are encouraged to make an act of spiritual communion (offer a prayer at home accompanied with a desire to be in union with the Eucharistic Lord).
Eucharistic ministers giving Communion to sick people in hospitals should com-ply with the directions of the hospital, consult the nurses’ station before doing anything. Before leaving the ward, he/she must wash his/her hands. May God bless us all.

The Fi h Sunday in Ordinary Time
February 9, 2020
First Reading: Isaiah 58:7-10 The Jewish people had just re-turned from exile. They were poor. The prophet in today’s read-ing reminds them of the religious prac ce that pleases God most of all, and he encourages them to share the li le they have with one another.
Second Reading: 1 Corinthians 2:1-5
In this reading, Paul con nues to address the problem of fac ons in Corinth. One group followed Apol-los, an eloquent preacher who came there a er Paul had le . Some cri cized Paul because his oratory didn’t compare to that of Apollos. In today’s passage, Paul defends his way of preaching.
