Stephen Ministry As of July 7, 2015 will have completed our 13 years of ministering to the fellow parishioners at St. Frances!! Our parish was enrolled in Stephen Ministry in 2002, after Father Jenkins had decided that the care system provided by Stephen Ministry best met the needs of our parish. Lay caregivers (people like you and I) called Stephen Ministers (after St. Stephen), provide one-to-one care to the bereaved, hospitalized terminally ill, unemployed, handicapped, home-bound, and others facing a crisis or life challenge. The ministry helps our priests by providing follow-up care for as long as needed. Our care receivers benefit from a strong support system, and our Christian friendship and love. We Stephen Ministers benefit through the spiritual growth we experience from being involved in a meaningful ministry, and everyone benefits from knowing that additional care will be available for us and our loved ones if we should need it. Those of us who serve on Stephen ministry love and believe in the ministry because you see the results in our dear care receivers. We know the difference this ministry makes in our parish, but in order to keep it a viable ministry we need to have more dedicated people join us… people like you. Please keep the ministry in mind and in your prayers!!!

SPEAK LIFE A group of frogs was traveling through the woods looking for a bigger pond when two of them fell into a very deep hole. The other frogs crowded around, and when they saw just how deep the hole was they shook their heads and started calling to the two frogs at the bottom that they were as good as dead. The two frogs ignored the shouting and with all

their might kept trying to jump up out of the hole. The other frogs jeered at them and told them to give up as their efforts were useless. Finally, one of the frogs stopped jumping and, panting heavily, fell on his side. He lay still and soon died. The other frog continued to jump as hard as he could. The crowd of frogs yelled at him to stop the pain and just give up and die. He jumped even harder, and finally made it out of the top of the hole. When he got out, the other frogs were astonished and asked him, “Didn’t you hear us?” The frog look puzzled and asked them to repeat what they had just said because he was a bit deaf. He thought they had been shouting encouragement to him! There is power in the tongue. An encouraging word to someone in difficult circumstances can lift them up and help them to make it through another day. Destructive words, on the other hand, can be all it takes to deprive them of hope and life. The power of words is much greater than we may think. Be careful what you say. Speak life to those who cross your path. The person who makes the effort to encourage another is special indeed.

Healing Broken Hearts-One Weekend at a Time.

Pope Francis said: “God is the light that illuminates the darkness, even if it does not

dissolve it, and a spark of divine light is within each of us.” Sometimes situations and

decisions from the past can place us into darkness where we feel disconnected and alone. If you have emotional or spiritual

wounds as a result of a past abortion, please consider attending our upcoming Rachel’s Vineyard weekend retreat February 27 – March 1, 2015. Rachel’s Vineyard is a

unique sensory based program for both men and women, which integrates emotional, psychological and spiritual dimensions to provide an effective recovery process for

those hurt by abortion and life’s circumstances. By experiencing God’s

profound love and mercy, let 2015 become the year you rekindle the spark of divine

light which is within all of us. Participation is strictly confidential. For more information, please contact Mary Huber at 909-475-5353

or MHuber@sbdiocese.org or visit the website Rachelsvineyard.org.

Thank you to all who have pledged to our Generous Heart

Campaign. If you missed the opportunity to join us in pledging to our Generous

Hearts Debt Campaign, don’t worry. The materials are

available in the parish office and in the pews of the church.

Your commitment and contributions are always

needed and helpful.

5to domingo del tiempo ordinario Tema: ¡Prediquemos la Buena Nueva a todos!

Pregunta para los niños: ¿Qué puedes hacer para ayudar a tus amigos y compañeros a conocer más acerca de Jesús?

Pregunta para los jóvenes: Jesús sabía que su misión era para todos, no sólo para un pueblo o grupo de personas. ¿Cómo puedes tenderles tu mano a otros (que no sean tus amigos y familia) y ofrecerles esperanza y la Buena Nueva? Pregunta para los adultos: Si tuviera que orar por la sanación por cualquier motivo, ¿cuál sería? ¿Qué necesita ser sanado en nuestro mundo y en nuestra sociedad?

En preparacion para esta reunion Mundial sobre la familia exsiste una encuesta puesta por el Vaticano para reunir opiniones de todas las personas, cualquiera que sea su estatus y relacion con la Iglesia. Usted puede tener acceso a esta encuesta llendo al sitio Web de la Diosesis SBDiocese.org, y hacienda click en Synod on the Family Survey.

Aqui en St. Frances nos estaremos reuniendo para formar los grupos de enfoque para responder a nuestra encuesta. Si usted esta interesado en participar y quiere que su voz sea escuchada, por favor unase con nosotros, este Martes Febrero 10 o Febrero 17 en el centro parroquial a las 6:30pm . Por favor traiga su Tableta o Laptop para usar y responder la encuesta. Para cualquier pregunta llame a Linda Ornelas lornelas@SFXC.org or 909-797-2533.

Reunion mundial sobre la familia 2015 Philadelphia

PALABRAS DE VIDA Un grupo de ranas iban por todo el bosque en busca de un charco más grande cuando súbitamente dos de ellas caen dentro de un hoyo bien profundo. Las otras ranas rodearon el hoyo y cuando vieron lo profundo que era hicieron un gesto de frustración con su cabeza y le gritaron a las ranas que estaban en el fondo que era imposible sacarlas. Las dos ranas, ignorando toda la gritería de sus compañeras, seguían intentando saltar fuera del hoyo con todas sus fuerzas. Las otras ranas se burlaban de ellas diciéndoles que se dieran por vencidas, pues todos sus esfuerzos serían inútiles. Por fin una de las ranas dejó de saltar y jadeando fuertemente cayó de lado; unos segundos más tarde murió. La otra rana continuó saltando tan alto como podía. Las demás ranas le gritaban que dejara de sufrir, se diera por vencida y se resignara a morir; pero la rana en el hoyo trataba aún más hasta que por fin su salto la sacó afuera. Las ranas quedaron asombradas y le preguntaron: “¿Es que no nos oías?” La rana estaba un tanto confundida y les pidió que repitieran lo que acababan de decir pues estaba un poco sorda. ¡Ella pensó que las ranas que estaban arriba le gritaban para darle ánimo! La lengua tiene mucho poder. Una palabra de aliento a alguien que pasa por una situación difícil puede levantarle su espíritu para poder seguir un día más. Las palabras destructivas, por otro lado, bien pueden descorazonar y quitarle toda esperanza a una persona. El poder de las palabras es mucho mayor de lo que podemos imaginar. Ten cuidado con lo que dices. Ofrece palabras vivificantes a aquellos con los que te cruces en el camino. La persona que hace un esfuerzo para animar a otra es verdaderamente especial.

What needs to be healed in our world and society?
