Pastors Letter January 19/20 This weekend we return to what the church calls Ordinary Time. These are all the days of the year that fill in between the special times of Lent and Easter, Advent and Christmas, and the holy days that are spread throughout the year. It’s the time of green vestments and simpler prayers and music. Ordinary time is also a kind of parable about life and living. We all look forward to special days. Religious celebrations like Christmas and Easter are wonderful. Days like Thanksgiving and New Years bring people together. Personal days like birthdays and anniversaries give us occasions to celebrate. In the midst of it all, however, the vast majority of our days are ordinary days — filled with nothing more special than the chores and the necessities of everyday living. And that, of course, is what makes ordinary time so special. Someone once said that everyone gets 15 minutes of fame. I am not sure if that is true, but I don’t think we are defined by one shining but transitory moment. What makes us who we are and what we ultimately will be remembered for is how the ordinary moments add up. It is the pattern of our lives which really counts. It is our day-to-day living that reveals our character and our virtue. In ordinary time the gospels are the stories of the public ministry of Jesus, the way he helped and healed the people he encountered along the way. The first story of healing is Jesus rescuing a bride and groom from a poorly planned wedding when the wine ran out! What could be more ordinary than that. I bet they were certainly glad Jesus was among the guests. In our own lives things come up. Someone is hurt, someone hurts us. Someone needs healing, someone needs forgiveness. Someone is in trouble. Someone is lonely. A friend needs a favor. A kid needs help with homework. A son or daughter away at college needs a loan, or the loan of a parent's ear on the phone for an hour. You get the idea. I love the seasons of celebration. But ordinary time is great! It’s where we live our lives and it is the opportunity to live the gospel. The simple things are those that add up to make a life well lived: a life of love, hope, and compassion. Welcome back — to ordinary time. Sincerely yours in Christ,

Rev. Michael A. Vetrano

Ordinary Time

Monday February 4th at 7:30 PM Why Catholics Like Einstein and Need not be Afraid of Darwin George Sim Johnston

The supposed conflict between science and religion is a staple of modern discourse. But does this conflict really exist? We shall take a look at Darwin's theory of evolution and the question of human origins; modern cosmology; the Galileo affair (which history books still treat as the definitive parting of ways between science and religion); and suggest ways of reading the creation account in the Book of Genesis. The talk will take a cue from the 17th century philosopher Francis Bacon: A little science can lead us away from God, while a fuller understanding of it leads us back again.

Regalo de bodas -Al Señor le gustan las bodas. Las Sagradas Escrituras presentan al Señor como el novio que se deleita en su desposada: nosotros. En Caná, Jesús, su madre y sus discípulos eran invitados de una boda. Cuando la pareja necesitaba ayuda, Jesús mostró su gloria de una manera creativa. El vino del final resultó ser el mejor. El Espíritu de Dios comparte dones con nosotros por buenas razones. Recibimos los dones con gozo y los utilizamos para la salvación. Ser uno de los invitados de esta gran boda puede cambiarlo todo.Texto: Philip J. Sandstrom, STD © 2000, OCP. Derechos reservados.

Dones para la Construcción del Reino- La segunda lectura de hoy nos asegura que el Espíritu Santo nos provee con muchos dones, particularmente los que necesitamos para utilizarlos en la construcción del Reino de Dios. De hecho, el Evangelio de san Juan nos presenta el primero de los signos que, para san Juan, realizó el Señor para mostrar la fuerza del Espíritu en Su propio llamado. Como Él, también nosotros debemos confiar ampliamente que Dios nos acompaña para transformar nuestra vida con la fuerza de Su amor.By Juan J. Sosa, Pbro., from Liturgia y Canción 2013© 2012, OCP. All rights reserved

Tres signos de Epifanía: los Magos. El Bautismo. Primer Milagro -En la liturgia católica hay tres hechos del Evangelio que se celebran en estos domingos como manifestaciones de la gloria de Cristo. El primero fue el que celebramos el 6 de enero: los magos de oriente adorando a Jesús, conducidos por una estrella; el segundo fue el del domingo pasado, el bautismo de Cristo y el cielo que se abre para decir: «Este es mi Hijo el amado en quien me complazco»; y el tercer hecho es el de este domingo que San Juan precisamente lo presenta como el primer signo que hizo Cristo para manifestar su gloria y los discípulos afianzaron su fe en él. Allí tenemos también el objetivo de nuestro domingo: creer más en Jesucristo conocerlo más este domingo, que sea verdaderamente una nueva epifanía para nuestra fe.Tomado de la Homilía de Mons. Oscar Romero, 20 de enero de 1980

La Actitud de María - Confiada y Activa - La actitud de María debe ser nuestra actitud de Iglesia: confiada pero activa. Orar como si todo dependiera de él, pero trabajar como si todo dependiera de nosotros porque apenas le dice a Jesús su oración, María se va a decir a los sirvientes: "pongamos nuestra parte, llenemos las tinajas, obedezcamos a lo que él dice". No se puede dar un milagro sólo esperándolo de Dios, hay que po-ner de nuestra parte todo lo que está a nuestro alcan-ce.Tomado de la Homilía de Mons. Oscar Romero, 20 de enero de 1980 Cursillo Prematrimonial - A los interesados en con-traer matrimonio por la iglesia católica, les estamos informando que el Cursillo Prematrimonial si iniciará el 3 de febrero. Las reuniones serán cada domingo, de las 9:00 de la mañana hasta el mediodía en Southamp-ton. Intenciones del Papa para Enero General: Que en este Año de la Fe los cristianos podamos profundizar el conocimiento del misterio de Cristo y testimoniar nuestra fe con alegría. Misionera: Que las comunidades cristianas de Medio Oriente reciban del Espíritu Santo la fuerza de la fidelidad y la perseverancia, especialmente cuando son discriminadas.
