PASTOR’S CORNER

LOVING THE ENEMY

In last Sunday’s Gospel on the Beatitudes, we were given a roadmap to

heaven. The exhortation to the disciples to embrace spiritual poverty, meekness,

righteousness, peacemaking and the other values of the Kingdom of God is

ultimately a call to holiness. They are certainly attainable with God’s grace.

Adding to the call to a life of beatitudes is the command of Jesus in the Gospel this weekend to

love our enemies. When one is tempted to fall into hatred, the words of Christ, “love your enemies”,

becomes a resounding gong, a strong reminder that to fall into hatred is to embrace the very sin that

has become the root cause of the sufferings of others. In the final analysis, this difficult mandate of

Christian discipleship is a call for us not to fall into the same veins or situations where the very people

that we detest have fallen. And, to love them – that is, to pray for their conversion and well-being – is

the only way to lasting peace, not just externally, but for our inner peace as well. It defies logic or

human reason, yet in the eyes of the faith, we trust that Divine Wisdom will touch our hearts to see the

goodness in every creature.

Hatred can only be countered by love. It is only in love that we can pray for the true conversion

of those whom we are struggling to understand, those who have hurt us and have probably made

havoc in our lives. To love our enemies is to commit ourselves not to become part of the proliferation

of evil, but rather, be instruments of transformation. To love one’s enemies is also to say to the person

who has hurt us – “I refused to be controlled by you by holding on to a grudge and resentments. I

choose to love and forgive you precisely because I want to be freed from you so that when I think of

you I will not be filled with anger and disdain, but rather, find myself praying for your own good and

well-being.” This is the love and grace that God wants to give when we are experiencing enmity, the

same love our Crucified Lord gave from the cross: "Father, forgive them, they do not know what they

are doing" (Luke 23:34). – Fr. Cary

"HELLO SQUAD"

"May the Church be a place of God's mercy

and hope, where all feel welcomed…

And the Church must be with doors wide

open so that all may enter…

And we must go out through these doors

and proclaim the Gospel."

Words of Pope Francis, June 2013

Are we making people feel "welcomed" here at

St. Cecilia, so that they may go out and proclaim the

Gospel? What is one way we can do this? Can you share

15 minutes before Mass on Saturday & Sunday, to show

hospitality and GREET at the doors of the church? Yes,

only 15 minutes! That's only 1 hour in a whole month of

weekends! Meet that family you've seen, but don't know

their name. Have the honor to be the face of St. Cecilia

to new parishioners.

The Letter to the Hebrews reminds us, "do not neglect

hospitality, for through it some have unknowingly

entertained angels" (13.2).

MEN REGRET LOST FATHERHOOD

40 Days for Life will begin on Ash Wednesday, March 6th. We will be outside every day, until Good Friday, at the

Lovejoy Surgicenter. 40% of all Portland area abortions are committed at this facility.

Please know that we also continuously witness weekly outside Planned Parenthood on 1st and Betts Avenue across from

the Beaverton Post Office every Friday at 8:40 until 10 am.

In the last 6 months, "pink hat" ladies intercept almost all of the young women we hope to talk to, but we can still

introduce ourselves in friendly voices. We tell them of the options available such as the "Stand Up Girl" website and other

resources. The website shares testimonies and information about personal health, relationships, contraception,

pregnancy, and baby development and care.

Because of the "pink hat ladies" blocking our access to the women, we were getting

discouraged. However, last Friday, a well-spoken, young man approached Randy. Randy's

sign "Men Regret Lost Fatherhood" had caught his attention. This young man revealed that

he was involved with encouraging many women to abort his babies. Seeing Randy's sign

made him aware of the seriousness of his actions. Randy and Mary Ann talked to him for

a long time. Mary Ann and Marie gave him pamphlets and a St. Cecilia bulletin that listed

the upcoming Project Aurora retreat dates. Randy and Marie continued their long

conversation with him. We were encouraged by him and his willingness to listen!

He seemed grateful for our input. Praise God!

Come join us for a prayer or honk and wave as you pass by!

DOMINGO #7 DE TIEMPO ORDINARIO

FEBRERO 24, 2019

JESÚS PROCLAMA EXIGENCIAS DEL REINO

En la lectura del evangelio de hoy, vemos claramente que

Jesús NO trae un mensaje bonito y agradable, fácilmente

alcanzado por cualquiera, y sin mucho esfuerzo. Al contrario,

requiere y exige una LUCHA CONSTANTE contra nuestros

propios instintos y nuestras inclinaciones naturales.

El camino que Jesús les muestra a sus discípulos requiere

mucho amor y una disposición de combate y disciplina fuerte.

Los que buscan un camino fácil se van a desanimar luego. A

nuestros enemigos, por ejemplo, Jesús nos pide AMARLOS,

no simplemente ignorarlos o tolerarlos. Si nos limitamos a

amar y frecuentar solamente a los que nos caen bien y nos

devuelven el favor o la amistad, no hemos hecho nada

especial: eso es muy fácil y los hacen todos.

El llamado a NO JUZGAR lo debemos escuchar a menudo,

pues nuestra inclinación es asumir lo peor del que no nos cae

bien. Es indispensable, si queremos seguir al Señor,

PERDONAR siempre y evitar todo resentimiento.

NUEVO GRUPO JUVENIL: VIERNES, MARZO 1

Tendremos pronto el comienzo de un nuevo GRUPO

JUVENIL en Santa Cecilia. Planeamos tener un grupo de

jóvenes, de edades de 13 y 17 años, que se reunirán los días

VIERNES por las tardes, en el salón de la chimenea del

Centro Parroquial.

El día para comenzar es EL PRÓXIMO VIERNES,

MARZO 1.

Los padres están invitados a traer a sus hijos para

inscribirlos como participantes del grupo a partir de las

6:45 PM. Hay muchas actividades que se están planeando, y

les invitamos a conocer los miembros del equipo ese viernes.

PLÁTICAS DE BAUTISMO EN MARZO Y ABRIL

No habrá preparación para padres y padrinos de

BAUTISMO hasta el sábado 9 de marzo a las 10 AM. Pase a

la oficina a inscribir a su hijo con el acta de nacimiento.

NO SE CELEBRAN BAUTISMOS en CUARESMA,

(desde marzo 6) hasta abril 21.

SUMO RESPETO POR LA CASA DE DIOS

Es muy importante que todos recordemos que cuando

entramos en la iglesia, estamos pisando “tierra santa”:

¡Estamos en la casa de DIOS!.

No es ni un salón, ni un gimnasio, ni un edificio cualquiera:

este es donde se complace el Todopoderoso y Eterno estar con

nosotros para que podamos estar en Su Presencia

sacramental, adorarlo, alabarlo, y venerarlo, y traerle

nuestras preocupaciones y peticiones. Es un lugar de

respeto y, generalmente, SILENCIO. Este silencio es

nuestro reconocer a Aquel en cuya presencia estamos,

primero y antes que nada; pero, a la misma vez, nuestro

silencio reconoce que a menudo hay otros que están

orando, y no debemos estorbarles con ruido innecesario.

La manera que nos vestimos y nos comportamos

expresa también nuestra actitud y nuestro respeto por el

Señor. Mantengamos silencio, en todo lo posible, a no ser

que estemos celebrando la Eucaristía u otro sacramento,

y AYUDEMOS A NUESTROS HIJOS a hacer lo mismo.

Pero YO debo poner el ejemplo.

MIÉRCOLES DE CENIZA: MARZO 6, 2019

trabajen en sí mismos en este tiempo de gracia en que

Dios les concede la gracia para que, por medio de la

SEVENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME ~ FEBRUARY 24, 2019

FIRST READING ~ 1 SAMUEL 26:2, 7-9, 12-13, 22-23

In those days, Saul went down to the desert of Ziph with three thousand picked men of Israel, to search

for David in the desert of Ziph. So David and Abishai went among Saul’s soldiers by night and found

Saul lying asleep within the barricade, with his spear thrust into the ground at his head and Abner and his

men sleeping around him.

Abishai whispered to David: “God has delivered your enemy into your grasp this day. Let me nail him

to the ground with one thrust of the spear; I will not need a second thrust!” But David said to Abishai,

“Do not harm him, for who can lay hands on the LORD’s anointed and remain unpunished?” So David

took the spear and the water jug from their place at Saul’s head, and they got away without anyone’s

seeing or knowing or awakening. All remained asleep, because the LORD had put them into a deep

slumber.

Going across to an opposite slope, David stood on a remote hilltop at a great distance from Abner, son of

Ner, and the troops. He said: “Here is the king’s spear. Let an attendant come over to get it. The LORD

will reward each man for his justice and faithfulness. Today, though the LORD delivered you into my

grasp, I would not harm the LORD’s anointed.”

RESPONSORIAL PSALM ~ PSALM 103:1-2, 3-4, 8, 10, 12-13

The Lord is kind and merciful.

SECOND READING ~ 1 CORINTHIANS 15:45-49

Brothers and sisters: It is written, The first man, Adam, became a living being, the last Adam a

life-giving spirit. But the spiritual was not first; rather the natural and then the spiritual. The first man

was from the earth, earthly; the second man, from heaven. As was the earthly one, so also are the earthly,

and as is the heavenly one, so also are the heavenly. Just as we have borne the image of the earthly one,

we shall also bear the image of the heavenly one.

GOSPEL ~ LUKE 6:27-38

Jesus said to his disciples: “To you who hear I say, love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,

bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. To the person who strikes you on one cheek,

offer the other one as well, and from the person who takes your cloak, do not withhold even your tunic.

Give to everyone who asks of you, and from the one who takes what is yours do not demand it back. Do

to others as you would have them do to you. For if you love those who love you, what credit is that to

you? Even sinners love those who love them. And if you do good to those who do good to you, what

credit is that to you? Even sinners do the same. If you lend money to those from whom you expect

repayment, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, and get back the same amount. But

rather, love your enemies and do good to them, and lend expecting nothing back; then your reward will

be great and you will be children of the Most High, for he himself is kind to the ungrateful and the

wicked. Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.

“Stop judging and you will not be judged. Stop condemning and you will not be condemned. Forgive

and you will be forgiven. Give, and gifts will be given to you; a good measure, packed together, shaken

down, and overflowing, will be poured into your lap. For the measure with which you measure will in

return be measured out to you.”

GLORIA

Gloria a Dios en el cielo, y en la tierra paz a los hombres que ama el Señor. Por tu inmensa gloria te alabamos, te bendecimos, te

adoramos, te glorificamos, te damos gracias, Señor Dios, Rey celestial, Dios Padre todopoderoso Señor, Hijo único, Jesucristo.Señor

Dios, Cordero de Dios, Hijo del Padre; tú que quitas el pecado del mundo, ten piedad de nosotros; tú que quitas el pecado del

PRIMERA LECTURA ~ 1 SAM 26, 2. 7-9. 12-13. 22-23

En aquellos días, Saúl se puso en camino con tres mil soldados israelitas, bajó al desierto de Zif en persecución de David y acampo

en Jakilá.

David y Abisay fueron de noche al campamento enemigo y encontraron a Saúl durmiendo entre los carros; su lanza estaba clavada

en tierra, junto a su cabecera, y en torno a él dormían Abner y su ejército. Abisay dijo entonces a David: "Dios te está poniendo al

enemigo al alcance de tu mano. Deja que lo clave ahora en tierra con un solo golpe de su misma lanza. No hará falta repetirlo". Pero

David replicó: "No lo mates. ¿Quién puede atentar contra el ungido del Señor y quedar sin pecado?"

Entonces cogió David la lanza y el jarro de agua de la cabecera de Saúl y se marchó con Abisay. Nadie los vio, nadie se enteró y

nadie despertó; todos siguieron durmiendo, porque el Señor les había enviado un sueño profundo.

David cruzó de nuevo el valle y se detuvo en lo alto del monte, a gran distancia del campamento de Saúl. Desde ahí gritó: "Rey

Saúl, aquí está tu lanza, manda a alguno de tus criados a recogerla. El Señor le dará a cada uno según su justicia y su lealtad, pues él

te puso hoy en mis manos, pero yo no quise atentar contra el ungido del Señor".

SALMO RESPONSORIAL ~ Del SALMO 102

El Señor es compasivo y misericordioso.

SEGUNDA LECTURA ~ 1 COR 15, 45-49

Hermanos: La Escritura dice que el primer hombre, Adán, fue un ser que tuvo vida; el último Adán es espíritu que da la vida. Sin

embargo, no existe primero lo vivificado por el Espíritu, sino lo puramente humano; lo vivificado por el Espíritu viene después.

El primer hombre, hecho de tierra, es terreno; el segundo viene del cielo. Como fue el hombre terreno, así son los hombres terrenos;

como es el hombre celestial, así serán los celestiales. Y del mismo modo que fuimos semejantes al hombre terreno, seremos también

semejantes al hombre celestial.

EVANGELIO ~ LUCAS 6, 27-38

En aquel tiempo, Jesús dijo a sus discípulos: "Amen a sus enemigos, hagan el bien a los que los aborrecen, bendigan a quienes los

maldicen y oren por quienes los difaman. Al que te golpee en una mejilla, preséntale la otra; al que te quite el manto, déjalo llevarse

también la túnica. Al que te pida, dale; y al que se lleve lo tuyo, no se lo reclames.

Traten a los demás como quieran que los traten a ustedes; porque si aman sólo a los que los aman, ¿qué hacen de extraordinario?

También los pecadores aman a quienes los aman. Si hacen el bien sólo a los que les hacen el bien, ¿qué tiene de extraordinario? Lo

mismo hacen los pecadores. Si prestan solamente cuando esperan cobrar, ¿qué hacen de extraordinario? También los pecadores

prestan a otros pecadores, con la intención de cobrárselo después.

Ustedes, en cambio, amen a sus enemigos, hagan el bien y presten sin esperar recompensa. Así tendrán un gran premio y serán hijos

del Altísimo, porque él es bueno hasta con los malos y los ingratos. Sean misericordiosos, como su Padre es misericordioso.

No juzguen y no serán juzgados; no condenen y no serán condenados; perdonen y serán perdonados. Den y se les dará: recibirán una

medida buena, bien sacudida, apretada y rebosante en los pliegues de su túnica. Porque con la misma medida con que midan, serán

medidos''.

ORACIÓN A SAN MIGUEL ARCÁNGEL

San Miguel Arcángel, defiéndenos en la batalla. Sé nuestro amparo contra las perversidades y asechanzas del demonio.

Reprímale Dios, pedimos suplicantes, y tú, príncipe de la milicia celestial, arroja al infierno con el divino poder a Satanás y a los

otros espíritus malignos que andan dispersos por el mundo para la perdición de las almas. AMEN.

COMO NOS AMA DIOS

Tuve hambre y me diste de comer

Tuve sed y me diste de beber

tuve frio y me abrigaste

estuve preso y me fuiste a ver

y fue mi Padre quien me amó

cuando tú te dabas sin razón

Estribillo

Como nos ama Dios

amarnos todos

amar al prójimo, como nos ama Dios

Como nos ama Dios

entregarlo todo

dar la vida por otros

como en la cruz la dio

Ama y hazlo lo que quieras

pero ama, ama de verás

Aunque no piensen como tú

Aunque no crean en lo mismo que tú

ama hasta que duela

si no hay justicia no hay amor

Somos solo uno en el Señor
