    Hello friends,

    Today's second reading to the Corinthians, St. Paul says: "Brothers and sisters; As a body is one through it has many parts, and all the parts of the body, though many, are one body, so also Christ...you are Christ's body." A phrase attributed to St. Teresa of Avila says that "Christ has no body now on earth but yours, no hands on earth but yours. Yours are the eyes through which he looks out with compassion upon the world. Yours the feet with which he chooses to go about doing good. For as he is the head, so you are the members, and we are all one in Christ Jesus." We should take those words quite literally today. Christ no longer walks the earth unless feet like yours are there to take him where he would like to go. He has no hands, unless you offer him your own, to reach out and touch people who live now in oppressive conditions. Yours are quite literally the eyes though which he can  look out on our world today, so punishment, oppressive working conditions and repressive rule. Take his perspective on addiction and hunger, on disability and discrimation. Christ has no eyes on earth, but your eyes, so go out and take a look from his perspective.

    Querido Amigos,

    La segunda lectura de San Pablo a los Corintios nos habla sobre la unidad. Nos dice que todaos somos partes de un mismo cuerop, el cuerpo de Cristo. Este presenta una realidad y responsabilidad que todos tenemos hacia cada uno de nuestros hermanos y hacia nuestra iglesia. Que bonito es cuando todos trabajamos parejos, cuando ponemos en practica nuestros talentos que Dios nos ha dado. Los invito a participar de la vida de nuestra comunidad en diferentes maneras. El Domingo pasado exprese la necesidad que tenemos acomodadores, sacristantes, mas miembros en el coro, etc. Asi que hay se los dejo da tarea. Si el Senor te esta llamando a servirlo a el y a tus hermanos el cualquier manera de estos, no te de miedo. Hay que poner nuestros talentos al sercicio de los demas. Recuerda que todos somos parte de un mismo cuerpo, del cuerpo de Cristo.

    The Wedding at cana

    1/20/2019

    Hello friends,

    Years ago, the account of the miracle at Cana was the Gospel reading at every wedding Mass to show Christ's blessing on the marriage. The tradition of the Church has seen this miracle at Cana more widely as part of the epiphany of Jesus. "Epiphany" mean revelation or disclosure. Our liturgical tradition has seen three moments as a kind of "rolling epiphany" of Jesus our messiah. The first epiphany was to the Magi when Jesus was revealed as Savior to all people. The second was Jesus' baptism in the Jordan, which we celebrated last Sunday. The third miracle is at Cana when Jesus is revealed as the One who can change water into wine. Here we see the transforming power of Christ not only over water, but over human lives. It's about Jesus changing the ordinary things of our life into places of extraordinary grace.

    Hola amigos,

    Como han de ver, los colores de la iglesia y de los vesitmentos del padre han cambiado al color verde. Esto quiere decir que ya nuevamente en Tiempo Ordinario. Estaremos de este color hasta que llegue las cuaresma a principios de Marzo. En este segurndo domingo del Tiempo Ordinario, nos encontramos con el primer milagro que hace Jesus al convertir el agua en vino en las bodas de Cana. El evangelista Juan lo describe como un signo. Este es una manifestacion de quien es Jesus. Que el tiene poder para transformer no nomas el agua en vino, sino tambien para transformarnos a nosotros en mejores personas. Asi que no duduemos del poder de Dios.

    Hello friends,

    I am happy to be back in town with you after taking a week off after New Years. I had the opportunity to visit several places in Mexico. After spending a couple of days in Puerto Vallerta, I went to Nayarit, Arandas, Jalisco, San Miguel de Allende and Guanajuato. These were all beautiful places to visit and highly recommend you visit a town or two.

    Happy Feast of the Epiphany

    1/6/2019

    Hello friends,

    Today we celebrate the feast of the Epiphany. The word Epiphany comes from a Greek word which means coming to light or appearing. The shepherds who lived in the area of Bethlehem had already had their epiphany when the angels announced the birth of Jesus.

    Today we commemorate God's revelation of the coming of his Son to the Magi. Magi is a term that designated persons who were priests of a pagan cult and were experts in astrology, interpretation of dreams, and various other occult arts. Their primary job would be to act as advisers to the rulers of the people of Persia (ancient people who lived in modern day Iran). As advisers to the king and this court, they would have studied the stars for messages from the gods. As pagans, they remind us that Christ's saving light meant for people of every race and every nationality.

    Queridos amigos,

    En esta fiesta de la Epifania del Senor, celebramos que Dios se sigue manifestando a todo el mundo. Esta manifestacion no quedo solo en los reyes magos que siguieron la Estrella, sino que Dios se sigue manifestando a todo aquel que abre su corazon a el. Ojala y nosostros estemos atentos a los signos de los tiempos para reconocerlo en su creacion, pero tambien en el projimo. Este fin de semana el padre Ryszard Polek esta visitando nuestra parroquia y estara hablando sobre la necesidad que hay de atender y ayudar al pobre. El esta aqui representando a "Food for the Poor"
