ADORACIÓN / ADORACJA
Could you not keep watch for one hour? —Mark 14:37
¿No has podido velar una hora? — Marcos 14:37
Otra de tantas coincidencias sucede otra vez, el primer Ángelus que rezó el Papa Francisco fue en la fecha en la última vez que se proclamó la historia del Evangelio de hoy, el encuentro de Jesús con la mujer adultera . . . En ese entonces el Papa Francisco dijo que “la actitud de Jesús es sorprendente”. “No escuchamos palabras de condenación o desprecio, solo palabras de amor, de misericordia, una invitación a la conversión: ‘Tampoco yo te condeno’ ” (Juan 8:11). El Papa Francisco continua diciendo: “el rostro de Dios es el de un padre misericordioso, que siempre tiene paciencia. ¿Han pensado en la paciencia de Dios, la paciencia que tiene con cada uno de nosotros? Ésa es su misericordia. Siempre tiene paciencia, paciencia con nosotros, nos comprende, nos espera, no se cansa de perdonarnos si sabemos volver a él con el corazón contrito” (Papa Francisco, Rezo del Ángelus del 17 de marzo de 2013). Las parroquias que están preparando a catecúmenos pueden proclamar la historia de Lázaro cuando vuelve a la vida. Refiriéndose a Lázaro y a todos aquellos que “se despertaron” de la “muerte” del pecado, Jesús define la “misión de misericordia” de la comunidad: “Desátenlo y déjenlo ir” (Juan 11:44). —Peter Scagnelli, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc. Citas del Papa Copyright © 2013, Libreria Editrice Vaticana. Usadas con permiso.
How fitting that the first Sunday Angelus of Pope Francis, who has made mercy his papacy’s theme, took place the last time today’s Gospel about Jesus’ encounter with the adulterous woman was proclaimed. “Jesus’ attitude is striking,” Francis declared. “We do not hear words of scorn or condemnation, only words of love, of mercy, an invitation to conversion: ‘Neither do I condemn you’ ” (John 8:11). Francis continued: “God’s face is the face of a merciful father who is always patient. Have you thought about God’s patience, the patience [God] has with each one of us? That is [God’s] mercy. [God] always has patience, patience with us . . . understands us . . . waits for us . . . does not tire of forgiving us” if we return ‘with a contrite heart” (Pope Francis, Angelus address, March 17, 2013). Parishes preparing catechumens may proclaim Jesus’ raising of Lazarus. Referring to Lazarus, and all those “raised” from the “death” of sin, Jesus defines the community’s “mission of mercy”— “Untie him and let him go” (John 11:44). —Peter Scagnelli, Copyright © J. S.

GUIDELINES REGARDING ABSTINENCE / GUÍA SOBRE LA ABSTINENCIA
How Do We Abstain?
Traditional Abstinence This is the practice of refraining from meat & meat products.
Abstinence as Penance Entering fully into the spirit of the Lenten Fast and the Paschal Fast, we are also encouraged to abstain from other foods, practices or activities.
Age Guidelines for Abstinence Abstinence is to be practiced by all who are 14 years of age and older on Fridays.

STEWARDSHIP: A WAY OF LIFE
Who among us has not sinned? We know that answer: there is not one among us. It is the human condition. We are so quick to judge others. “HER sin is far greater than mine! HIS sin is unforgivable!”, we think. And at times we may think our own sins are irredeemable. We would do well to remember that in Christ we are a new creation. In baptism, our sin have been. In the sacrament of reconciliation, we seek and find forgiveness with our Lord, and with our community. And the spirit of reconciliation demands that we make a serious effort to seek an understanding of how similar we are to one another than how different. Our humanity binds us together more closely than our race, religion, politics or income separates us. At the heart of it all is Jesus, who redeems the whole world, and who says, “Let the one among you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone.”
¿Cómo Obstinamos?
La Abstinencia Tradicional Esto es la practica de abstenerse de carne/productos de carne.
La Abstinencia Como Penitencia Entrar plenamente en el espíritu del Ayuno Cuaresmal. También somos animados a abstenernos de otros alimentos, practicas o actividades.
Guía Para la Abstinencia Según a Edad La abstinencia debe ser practicada, en los Viernes, por todos los que tienen 14 años de edad en adelante.

BLEST ART will be visiting our parish on behalf of the Christian families in Bethlehem, Palestine. Our mission is to support those families in the Holy Land.
For centuries, the Christians in and around Bethlehem have earned a living by carving religious olive wood art to sell to visiting pilgrims. Fewer pilgrims are journeying to the Holy Land today, making it difficult for those Christians to support their families. As a result, there has been a dramatic rise in Christian emigration from the Holy Land. Now, less than 1% of the population in the Holy Land is Christian.
Blest Art Inc helps the struggling Christian families of Bethlehem by marketing their artwork in the United States.
Please visit our display on Saturday, March 19 & Sunday, March 20th, 2016 after each Mass
We gladly accept cash, checks, and all major credit cards. Please note that we do not ask for, nor do we accept, any donations. You are welcome to visit/order from our website www.BlestArt.org and have carvings shipped to your home.

FROM THE ST. VINCENT DE PAUL SOCIETY
DE LA SOCIEDAD DE SAN VICENTE DE PAÚL
In today’s Gospel, Jesus is the model of compassion and kindness. He shows us how to be merciful and nonjudgmental.
When we give to the poor, God indeed pours his love, peace and mercy into our hearts and into the hearts of those suffering in poverty.
En el Evangelio de hoy, Jesús es modelo de compasión y bondad. Él nos enseña cómo ser misericordioso y sin prejuicios.
Cuando damos a los pobres, Dios en verdad derrama su amor, la paz y la misericordia en nuestros corazones y en los corazones de aquellos que sufren en la pobreza.
