Amen EL ESPIRITU DEL SEÑOR ESTA SOBRE MI. TIME The holidays are well behind us; the year stretches out ahead. And what sort of year will it be? To judge by the words of Jesus in today s Gospel, it will be a year acceptable to the Lord. And Jesus surely didn t mean only the next three hundred sixty-five days facing his listeners at that time. When Jesus announced the arrival of God s favor, it was a message for all time, for every year. Similarly, we read today in Nehemiah how the people gathered with solemnity to hear God s word as though for the first time. They listened, and then fell to the ground and wept. But the prophet said, Today is holy... do not be sad, and do not weep. The year acceptable to the Lord is this year. The day that is holy is this day. The time to listen is now. What sort of year will you have? What sort of day? God s help is always here. What you do with each day can be holy and acceptable to the Lord if you but listen to and act on God s word. Copyright J.

6 6 EL TIEMPO Los días de fiesta ya pasaron, el año se nos viene encima. Y qué clase de año será? De acuerdo con las palabras de Jesús en el Evangelio de hoy, será el año de la gracia del Señor. Y Jesús con seguridad no se refería solamente a los próximos trescientos sesenta y cinco días cuando hablaba a la gente en ese tiempo. El anuncio de la llegada de la gracia de Dios lo hizo Jesús para todos los tiempos, para cada año. De manera similar, leemos hoy en Nehemías cómo la gente se reunía con solemnidad a escuchar la Palabra de Dios como si fuera la primera vez. Escuchaban y luego se postraban con el rostro en la tierra y lloraban. Pero el profeta decía: Este día está dedicado al Señor no estén tristes. El año de la gracia del Señor es este año. El día dedicado al Señor es hoy. El tiempo de escuchar es ahora. Qué clase de año tendrás? Qué clase de día? La ayuda de Dios siempre está aquí. Lo que haces cada día será santo y aceptable al Señor solamente si escuchas y practicas la palabra de Dios. Copyright J. S. Paluch Co. TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE El día 3 de febrero se celebra entre misas, mariachis, fuegos artificiales y muchas expresiones de religiosidad popular, la fiesta de Nuestra Señora de la Concepción de Suyapa en Honduras. Fue un sábado del mes de febrero, cuando Alejandro Colindres, un joven humilde labrador, y Jorge Martínez, un niño de ocho años, la encontraron. Según la tradición estos llegaron cansados a la quebrada del Piligüín. Acostándose sobre el suelo, Alejandro sintió lo que le parecía una piedra en su espalda. Por más que intentaba arrojarla lejos, cuando se acostaba sentía la misma piedra. Por fin en lugar de tirarla, la puso en su mochila y al amanecer descubrió que no era piedra sino una pequeña imagen de María (6.5 cm.) con rostro indígena tallada en madera. En 1780 se le construyó un templo y en 1796 se registró su primer milagro. El Papa Pío XII la proclamó Patrona de la República de Honduras en En las advocaciones latinoamericanas ella es nombrada como la fortaleza de los humildes. Cuando se quiere destruir la religión, se comienza por atacar al sacerdote porque allá donde no hay sacerdote, no hay sacrificio. - SAN JUAN MARIA VIANNEY Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM, Copyright J. S. Paluch Co. PARA REFLEXIONAR La lectura de hoy, del Evangelio de San Lucas, nos ofrece las primeras palabras de Jesús cuando él inició su ministerio público. Las palabras reflejan el entendimiento de su misión como ungido por el Espíritu. Sus palabras son su Declaración de la Misión. Los buenos corresponsables se regocijan de ser seguidores de Jesús. Ellos son conscientes de que la comisión de Jesús es también su comisión, ellos la abrazan y la adoptan como propia. Nosotros también tenemos albricias para llevar a un mundo que sufre. Este año, cómo cumpliremos la comisión de Cristo en el mundo en el cual Él nos ha puesto, usando los dones que nos ha confiado? Esta semana necesitamos lo siguiente en la alacena: JALEA, JABON, PAPEL HIGIENICO & RAMEN Siempre se necesitan bolsas de papel. Gracias! ADORACIÓN AL BENDITO SACRAMENTO El santísimo esta expuesto cada Viernes en la capilla de la iglesia en Arroyo Grande, de las 12:30pm a las 5:30pm. Todos son bienvenidos.
