Holy Name Catholic Church San Antonio, Texas February 4, 2018

The 5th Sunday in Ordinary Time (B) February 4, 2018

Reading I: 1 Job 7:1-4,6-7 Responsorial Psalm 147:1-2,3-4,5-6 Reading II: 1 Corinthians 9:16-19,22-23 Gospel: Mark 1:29-39

Theme: “He approached, grasped her hand, and helped

her up. Then the fever left her and she waited on them” (Gospel).

I remember my tour to the Holy Land and one of the holy sites the group visited was the house of Simon. An octagonal church is built on it but the house is restored. Because the church is elevated and has a glass floor, the whole house is viewable from the top. It is the same house being referred to in the gospel. The story of Jesus healing of Simon’s mother in law happened there. Grasping her hand, the fever left her and she recovered. Jesus is powerful in word and in deed.

Medicine as a science has evolved and in our time, we benefit from the excellent work of medical researchers and practitioners, doctors and nurses who have forwarded the cause of health and safety of people. The symbol of medicine is the serpent ascending and curling on a rod or staff and from the biblical view, it is inspired by the book of Numbers, “Then the Lord said to Moses, “Make a fiery serpent, and set it on a pole; and it shall be that everyone who is bitten, when he looks at it, shall live” ( 21:8).

What we believe is that the Lord is great Healer and can restore anyone who is afflicted with any kind of disease or illness will recover through the power of Jesus Christ. In Mark’s gospel, Jesus confronts and drives away demons and unclean spirits from people who are possessed. Exorcism is His way of freeing people who are enslaved and oppressed by the evil spirit. Even the Evil Spirit recognized and acknowledged Him, as in the case in Mark 1:23-27, the man with unclean spirits, the gospel last Sunday. The encounter with Jesus brings healing and recovery because He is indeed the Healer and Savior. The miracles of Jesus not only effected awe, admiration, and astonishment but more importantly faith and trust in Him. The work of salvation and good news is that people are healed of lingering illnesses (the woman with hemorrhage for 12 years), liberated from the possession of the evil spirit, and freedom from sin.

Let us pray, absolve us O Lord from our iniquities, and free us from sin and evil. With your touch in the sacraments, grant us health of mind and body. May we always live in your powerful yet gentle grace of love and healing, Amen.

El quinto domingo del tiempo ordinario (B) 4 de febrero de 2018

Lectura I: 1 Job 7: 1-4,6-7 Salmo responsorial 147: 1-2,3-4,5-6 Lectura II: 1 Corintios 9: 16-19, 22-23 Evangelio: Marcos 1: 29-39

Tema: "Se acercó, le tomó la mano y la ayudó a levantarse. Entonces la fiebre la abandonó y ella los atendió" (Evangelio).

Recuerdo mi gira por Tierra Santa y uno de los lugares sagrados que el grupo visitó fue la casa de Simón. Una iglesia octagonal se construye en él pero la casa se restaura. Debido a que la iglesia es elevada y tiene un piso de vidrio, toda la casa se puede ver desde la parte superior. Es la misma casa a la que se hace referencia en el evangelio. La historia de Jesús sanando a la suegra de Simón ocurrió allí. Agarrando su mano, la fiebre la abandonó y se recuperó. Jesús es poderoso en palabra y en acción.

La medicina como ciencia ha evolucionado y, en nuestro tiempo, nos beneficiamos del excelente trabajo de los investigadores médicos y profesionales, médicos y enfermeras que han transmitido la causa de la salud y la seguridad de las personas. El símbolo de la medicina es la serpiente que asciende y se encrespa sobre una vara o bastón y, desde el punto de vista bíblico, está inspirado en el libro de Números: "Entonces el Señor le dijo a Moisés, "Haz una serpiente ardiente y ponla en un asta ; y será que cualquiera que sea mordido, cuando lo mire, vivirá" (21: 8).

Lo que creemos es que el Señor es un gran Sanador y puede restaurar a cualquier persona afligida con cualquier tipo de enfermedad o enfermedad que se recupere a través del poder de Jesucristo. En el evangelio de Marcos, Jesús confronta y aleja demonios y espíritus inmundos de personas que están poseídas. El exorcismo es su manera de liberar a las personas que están esclavizadas y oprimidas por el espíritu maligno. Incluso el Espíritu Malvado lo reconoció y lo reconoció, como en el caso de Marcos 1: 23-27, el hombre con espíritus inmundos, el evangelio del domingo pasado.

El encuentro con Jesús trae sanación y recuperación porque Él es de hecho el Sanador y Salvador. Los milagros de Jesús no solo causaron asombro, admiración y asombro, sino lo que es más importante, fe y confianza en él. La obra de salvación y las buenas nuevas es que las personas se curan de enfermedades persistentes (la mujer con hemorragia durante 12 años), liberadas de la posesión del espíritu maligno y libres del pecado.

Recemos, absuelva a Dios de nuestras iniquidades y líbranos del pecado y del mal. Con su toque en los sacramentos, concédenos la salud mental y corporal. Que siempre vivamos en tu poderosa pero dulce gracia de amor y curacion, Amén.

Pastoral Reflection By Raquel Clark, Pastoral Council

Today’s reading from the Gospel of Mark was a difficult one for me. After reading it, I thought, Jesus per-formed healing miracles, we all know that! So, I went through Jesus’ list of miracles to see if I could find some-thing special about this miracle and found that there are 37 miracles listed that Jesus performed and of that 37, the majority of them were healing miracles. But after much thought, I began to think….Did God send his Son to us to perform healing miracles? No, I don’t think so and I don’t think Jesus thought so either. The following morning after, Jesus went off alone to pray and meditate. When Simon found Him, he told Jesus that everyone was looking for him. It easy to come to the conclusion that everyone was looking for Jesus because they wanted Him to continue healing. However, Jesus responded by saying “Let us go on to the nearby villages that I may preach there also. For this purpose have I come.” He was sent to us to spread the word of God, to educate us spiritually. Physical healing is great but we need more than that to accept God into our lives. All of the world’s problems cannot be solved through physical healing and Jesus knew that. ______________________________________________________________________________________

The Announcement of Easter and the Movable Feasts On the Epiphany of the Lord, after the singing of the Gospel, a Deacon or cantor, in keeping with an ancient practice of Holy Church, announces from the ambo the movable feasts of the current year according to this formula: Know, Dear Brethren, (brothers and sisters,) that, as we have rejoiced at the Nativity of our Lord Jesus Christ, so by leave of God’s mercy we announce to you also the joy of his Resurrection, who is our Savior. On the 14th day of February will fall Ash Wednesday, and the beginning of the fast of the most sacred Lenten season. On the 1st day of April you will celebrate with joy Easter day, the Paschal feast of our Lord Jesus Christ. On the 10th day of May will be the Ascension of our Lord Jesus Christ. On the 20th day of May, the feast of Pentecost. On the 3rd day of June, the feast of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ. On the 2nd day of December, the First Sunday of the Advent of our Lord Jesus Christ, to whom is honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen.

2018 Second Collections Schedule

Adult Confirmation

Registration for Adult Confirmation is available now. Adult Confirmation Classes begin Friday February 16th at 7pm in the Religious Ed. Conference room. This class is for adults at least 18 years of age and have already received Baptism and First Holy Communion. If you have any questions or are interested in registering please call the parish office Monday—Friday 9am—5pm closed for lunch 12pm –1pm, (210) 333-5020.

Preparation for Confirmation should aim at leading the Christian toward a more intimate union with Christ and a more lively familiarity with the Holy Spirit – his actions, his gifts, and his biddings – in order to be more capable of assuming the apostolic responsibilities of Christian life. To this end catechesis for Confirmation should strive to awaken a sense of belonging to the Church of Jesus Christ, the universal Church as well as the parish community. The latter bears special responsibly for the preparation of Confirmands (CCC 1309).

To receive Confirmation one must be a state of grace. One should receive the sacrament of Penance in order to be cleansed for the gift of the Holy Spirit. More intense prayer should prepare one to receive the strength and graces of the Holy Spirit with docility and readiness to act (CCC 1310).
