2 Church of St. Martha January 25, 2015 Third Sunday in Ordinary Time Dear Parishioners, Change Our Lives In today s first reading, Jonah, sent by God to warn the people, storms through Nineveh, frightening the citizens out of their wits. It works! They repent before Jonah makes his way through a third of the city, and God sees by their actions how they have turned from evil. Then we hear Paul telling the Corinthians that the world in its present form is passing away. He calls for a change of heart. He stops short of telling them to set aside their everyday lives, but still he urges them rather mysteriously to live as though they aren t doing the things they re doing. Finally, Jesus stands on the shore and cries, The kingdom of God is at hand! The apostles-to-be abandon their nets and follow him. Thus in all the readings we hear an invitation to a radical and immediate change in our lives. Fr. Wilfredo Contreras Modeling our lives a er Jesus example of love, we are able to mul ply the good in the world. Being Catholic is not just a tle, not something to do or a place to go; it is the essence of who we are. Jesus Christ is the common thread that binds us all our parents and grandparents, our children and grandchildren, you, me and each one of us. We embody every race and ethnicity, old and young, men and women, poor and rich. From Key West to north Broward, with more than 1.3 million in our family, we are united in Him. We are the Archdiocese of Miami. The Archdiocese of Miami, through the Archbishop s Chari es and Development Drive (ABCD), opens the door for s all to unite as one community of believers to spread the Good News of Jesus Christ and bring hope to those in To our parishioners who have dedicated their me and talent to make our church look beau ful for our Advent and Christmas liturgies.

5 Iglesia St. Martha Enero 25, 2015 Tercer Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario Estimados Feligreses Cambiemos Nuestras Vidas En la primera lectura de hoy, Jonás, enviado por Dios a dar advertencia al pueblo, atraviesa Nínive como un huracán, asustando grandemente a los ciudadanos. Y funcionó! Ellos se arrepienten antes de que Jonás cruzara menos de la tercera parte de la ciudad, y Dios ve por sus obras que se han arrepentido del mal. Luego oímos a Pablo que le dice a los corintios que este mundo que vemos es pasajero. El les hace un llamado al cambio de corazón. Aunque no llega a decirles que cambien su vida cotidiana, sí les insta un tanto misteriosamente a vivir como si no hicieran lo que hacen de costumbre. Finalmente, Jesús se detiene a la orilla del lago y grita, El reino de Dios ya está cerca! Los futuros apóstoles abandonan sus redes y le siguen. Así es que en todas las lecturas oímos una invitación a un cambio inmediato y radical de nuestras vidas. Fr. Wilfredo Contreras Te Necesitamos! St. Martha esta buscando unos cuantos ayudantes. Necesitamos Ujieres para todas las Misas. Nos Ayudas? Por favor llamar a Richard Cumberland al o la oficina A nuestros feligreses que han dedicado su empo y talento para hacer nuestra iglesia lucir bella para nuestras liturgias de Adviento y Navidad. Un agradecimiento especial a las mujeres voluntarias quienes vienen todos los viernes a limpiar la iglesia; al Sr. Gene Ramsey por apodar nuestro Jardín Memorial haciéndolo más más ordenado y limpio; a Sonia Henao, Deliana Hernández y su equipo, quienes ayudaron con las decoraciones de Navidad; Carlos Vega por su empo en pulir el mármol de la iglesia; a Juan Carlos Sánchez por ayudarnos con la sus tución de las luces en la iglesia, Armando Lenoz quien reparo y cuido de nuestro pesebre; Joel José por ayudar en todas las liturgias y ser un salva vidas; y Ibo Richards por su dedicación al servicio de la parroquia durante todas las liturgias.
