March 4, 2018 Third Sunday

of Lent

Understanding the Sacrament of Penance God never wants to be separated from us and understands our natural human tendencies. That is why God has given his people specific ways to repent from sin and Jesus insti-tuted the sacrament of confession. In the Church, this sacrament has been referred to by several different names, each highlighting the powerful elements contained within it. The Catechism (CCC 1423–24) tells us it is called a: • Sacrament of Conversion because it makes sacramen-

tally present Jesus’ call to conversion, the first step in returning to the Father from whom one has strayed by sin.

• Sacrament of Penance since it consecrates the Christian

sinner’s personal steps of conversion to change a per-son’s heart

• Sacrament of Confession since the disclosure of sins to

a priest is an essential element of this sacrament. It is also a “confession” acknowledging and praising the holiness of God and his mercy toward a sinful man.

• Sacrament of Forgiveness since by the priest’s sacra-

mental absolution God grants the penitent “pardon and peace.”

• Sacrament of Reconciliation because it gives the recip-

ient the love of God who reconciles: “Be reconciled to God” (2 Corinthians 5:20).

It is one of the sacraments of healing. Though we receive new life through the sacraments of Christian initiation—Baptism, Confirmation, and the Eucharist—we are still hu-man beings subject to the consequences of original sin. Just as Jesus forgave the sins of the paralytic and restored him to bodily health, so too Jesus wanted the Church, through the Holy Spirit, to continue his work of healing and salvation, even among her own members. We have two sacraments of healing: • Sacrament of Penance • Sacrament of Anointing the Sick Come and Celebrate this Sacrament at SPN our Recon-ciliation Service which is being held: Thursday, March 8 – SPN 12:30 – 3 pm (School Children by Grade) Parishioners are welcome to come to school service Thursday, March 8 – SPN 7 pm (Unity)

Comprender el sacramento de la penitencia Dios nunca quiere separarse de nosotros y entiende nuestras tendencias humanas naturales. Es por eso que Dios le ha dado a su pueblo formas específicas de arrepentirse del pe-cado y Jesús instituyó el sacramento de la confesión. En la Iglesia, este sacramento ha recibido varios nombres diferentes, cada uno destacando los poderosos elementos contenidos en él. El Catecismo (CCC 1423-24) nos dice que se llaman: • Sacramento de conversión porque hace presente sacra-

mentalmente el llamado de Jesús a la conversión, el primer paso para regresar al Padre de quien uno se ha descarriado por el pecado.

• Sacramento de Penitencia, ya que consagra los pasos

personales de conversión del pecador cristiano para cambiar el corazón de una persona

• Sacramento de la confesión, ya que la revelación de los

pecados a un sacerdote es un elemento esencial de este sacramento. También es una "confesión" que reconoce y alaba la santidad de Dios y su misericordia hacia un hombre pecador.

• Sacramento del perdón ya que por la absolución sacra-

mental del sacerdote Dios concede al penitente "perdón y paz".

• Sacramento de la Reconciliación porque le da al desti-

natario el amor de Dios que se reconcilia: "Reconciliaos con Dios" (2 Corintios 5:20).

Es uno de los sacramentos de curación. Aunque recibimos una nueva vida a través de los sacramentos de la iniciación cristiana, el Bautismo, la Confirmación y la Eucaristía, se-guimos siendo seres humanos sujetos a las consecuencias del pecado original. Así como Jesús perdonó los pecados del paralítico y lo res-tauró a la salud corporal, también Jesús quería que la Iglesia, a través del Espíritu Santo, continuara su obra de curación y salvación, incluso entre sus propios miembros. Tenemos dos sacramentos de curación: • Sacramento de la Penitencia • Sacramento de ungir a los enfermos Venga a celebrar este sacramento en SPN nuestra recon-ciliación servicio que está llevando a cabo: Jueves, 8 de marzo - SPN 12:30 - 3:00 (grado) de los esco-lares por parte de los parroquianos son bienvenidos a venir a la escuela Ser-vicio Jueves, 8 de marzo - SPN 7 pm (Unity)
