D ear Community of St. Augustine,

What fruits are we producing? We can ask ourselves this question as we examine our lives as

Christians and as a community as we continue to prepare ourselves to celebrate 50 years of the founding of our Parish.

Last week, I told you that Jesus presents a program of Christian life to us in chapter 6 of St. Luke’s Gospel. Continuing with His teachings and with clear images, we can hear Jesus asking us: What is in your hearts?

If we have envy, gossips, jealousy, rancor, resentment, vengeance… in our hearts, we will be bad Christians. But if we have peace, charity, respect, trust, love, forgiveness, reconciliation, mercy… we will be good Christians. Jesus is clear: "A good tree does not bear rotten fruit, nor does a rotten tree bear good fruit.”

Next Wednesday, March 6th, the Lenten Season begins. It will prepare us to celebrate Easter, the Resurrection of the Lord. Ashes will remind us that we should repent of our sins, change, and bear good fruits.

Many members of our Parish have joined the program “Living the Eucharist,” which help us to go through this Lenten path praying with the Word of God, and to deepen our knowledge of the Eucharist. I invite you to attend the Stations of the Cross in the Church, every Friday at 6:45pm in English and at 7:30pm in Spanish. And I hope all of you will come to the Fish Fry or the Soup Dinners every Friday of Lent alternatively.

In this bulletin, you will find information about the activities in preparation for the celebration of our 50th

anniversary, and I hope everybody will be able to participate, collaborate and join us so that together we can continue to bear good fruits!

May God bless you abundantly!

Q uerida comunidad de San Agustín,

¿Qué frutos estamos dando? Esta es una pregunta que podemos hacernos personalmente, al examinar

nuestra vida como cristianos y también como comunidad, al continuar preparándonos para celebrar los 50 años de creada nuestra parroquia.

La semana pasada, les decía que Jesús nos propone un programa de vida cristiana en el capítulo 6 del Evangelio de San Lucas que estamos escuchando. Continuando con sus enseñanzas y utilizando imágenes claras, podemos escuchar a Jesús preguntarnos: ¿Qué hay en tu corazón?

Si en nuestro corazón albergamos envidias, chismes, celos, rencores, resentimientos, venganza, etc., seremos malos cristianos. Pero si en nuestro corazón tenemos paz, caridad, respeto, confianza, afecto, cariño, perdón, reconciliación, misericordia, etc., seremos cristianos buenos. Jesús es claro: “No hay árbol bueno que produzca frutos malos, ni árbol malo que produzca frutos buenos.”

El próximo miércoles, 6 de marzo comenzará el tiempo de Cuaresma, que nos preparará para celebrar la Pascua de Resurrección. La imposición de las cenizas nos recuerda que debemos arrepentirnos de nuestros pecados, cambiar y dar buenos frutos.

Muchos parroquianos se han unido al programa “Vive la Eucaristía” que nos ayuda a seguir este camino Cuaresmal orando con la Palabra de Dios y conociendo más la Eucaristía. Los invito al Ejercicio del Vía Crucis en la iglesia, todos los viernes a las 6:45pm en inglés y a las 7:30pm en español. Espero que asistan a las Cenas de Pescado frito o de Sopas, que serán alternadas los viernes de Cuaresma.

En este boletín encontrarán información sobre las actividades que nos preparan a celebrar nuestro 50 aniversario, espero que puedan participar en ellas, colaborar y unírsenos para que juntos podamos seguir dando buenos frutos.

¡Que Dios los bendiga abundantemente!

NINE TIPS FOR MAKING THE SEASON MORE MEANINGFUL

Lenten Season Regulations for Fast and Abstinence

Ash Wednesday, March 6, 2019 and Good Friday, April 19, 2019 are days of fast and abstinence. Fridays of Lent are also days of abstinence.

Fasting is to be observed by all 18 years of age and older, who have not yet celebrated their 59th birthday. On a fast day one full meal is allowed. Two other meals, sufficient to maintain strength, may be taken according to each one’s needs, but together they should not equal another full meal. Eating between meals is not permitted, but liquids, including milk and juices, are allowed.

Abstinence is observed by all 14 years of age and older. On days of abstinence no meat is allowed. Note that when health or ability to work would be seriously affected, the law does not oblige. When in doubt concerning fast and abstinence, the parish priest should be consulted.

Normas Sobre el Ayuno y la Abstinencia en la Cuaresma

El Miércoles de Ceniza, 6 de marzo y Viernes Santo, 19 de abril de 2019, son días de ayuno y abstinencia de carne. Los viernes de cuaresma también son días de abstinencia de carne.

El ayuno debe ser observado por todos los católicos de 18 a 59 años de edad. Ayunar consiste en comer una comida completa para mantener las fuerzas. También se pueden comer dos comidas pequeñas según se necesite. Sin embargo, las dos comidas juntas no pueden igualar una comida completa. Comer entre comidas no es permitido, pero se permiten líquidos, incluso leche y jugos.

La abstinencia es observada por todos los mayores de 14 años. En los días de abstinencia, no se permite carne. Tenga en cuenta que cuando la salud o la capacidad para trabajar se vieran seriamente afectadas, la ley no obliga. En caso de duda sobre el ayuno y la abstinencia, se debe consultar al párroco.

Slow Down – Set aside 10 minutes a day for silent prayer or meditation. It will revitalize your body and your spirit. Read a good book – You could choose the life of a saint, a spiritual how-to, an inspirational book or one of the pope’s new books. Be kind – Go out of your way to do something nice for someone else every day. Get involved – Attend a Lenten lecture or spiritual program. Volunteer at your parish – Whether it’s the parish fish fry or soup dinners, or cleaning the church grounds, it will give you a chance to help others. Reach out – Invite an inactive Catholic to come with you to receive ashes on Ash Wednesday. Pray – Especially for people you don’t like and for people who don’t like you. Tune out – Turn off the television and spend quality time talking with family members or friends. Clean out closets – Donate gently used items to the St. Vincent de Paul Society.

Vaya Despacio: Reserve 10 minutos al día para orar en silencio o meditar. Revitalizará su cuerpo y su espíritu. Lea un buen libro: puede elegir la vida de un santo, un manual espiritual, un libro inspirador o uno de los nuevos libros del Papa. Sea amable: haga todo lo posible por hacer algo bueno para otra persona todos los días. Participe: Asista a una conferencia de Cuaresma o a un retiro espiritual. Ofrézcase como voluntario en la parroquia: ya sea en las cenas de pescado frito o sopas, limpiar los predios de la iglesia, le dará la oportunidad de ayudar a otros. Alcance: Invite a un católico inactivo para que lo acompañe a recibir cenizas el Miércoles de Ceniza. Ore: Especialmente por las personas que no le caen bien y por las personas que no lo(a) quiere. Desconéctese: Apague la televisión y pase tiempo de calidad hablando con familiares o amigos. Limpie los armarios: done los artículos de buen uso a la Sociedad de San Vicente de Paúl o done las camisas de algodón de manga largas para los campesinos.
