Penitential Rite (Confiteor) I confess to almighty God and to you, my brothers and sisters, that I have greatly sinned, in my thoughts and in my words, in what I have done and in what I have failed to do, through my fault, through my fault, through my most grievous fault; therefore I ask blessed Mary ever-Virgin, all the Angels and Saints, and you, my brothers and sisters, to pray for me to the Lord our God.

(Kyrie) Page 2

Psalm Response

Lenten Gospel Acclamation

Apostle’s Creed I believe in God, the Father almighty, Creator of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried; he descended into hell; on the third day he rose again from the dead; he ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty; from there he will come to judge the living and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.

Prayer of the Faithful

Preparation of the Gifts: Change Our Hearts

Mystery of Faith Save us, Savior of the world. For by your Cross and Resurrection you have set us free.

Amen

Acto Penitencial (Confiteor) Yo confieso ante Dios todopoderoso y ante vosotros, hermanos, que he pecado mucho de pensamiento, palabra, obra y omisión. Por mi culpa, por mi culpa, por mi gran culpa. Por eso ruego a santa María, siempre Virgen, a los ángeles, a los Santos y a vosotros, hermanos, que intercedáis por mi ante Dios, nuestro Señor.

(Kyrie) Salmo Responsorial (Salmo 115) Respuesta:

Caminaré en presencia del Señor, en el país de la vida.

Aclamación del Evangelio Page 5

Credo de los Apóstoles Creo en Dios, Padre todopoderoso, Creador del cielo y de la tierra. Creo en Jesucristo, su único Hijo, nuestro Señor, que fue concebido por obra y gracia del Espíritu Santo, nació de Santa María Virgen, padeció bajo el poder de Poncio Pilato, fue crucificado, muerto y sepultado, descendió a los infiernos, al tercer día resucito de entre los muertos, subió a los cielos y ésta sentado a la derecha de Dios, Padre todopoderoso. Desde allí ha de venir a juzgar a vivos y muertos. Creo en el Espíritu Santo, la santa Iglesia católica, la comunión de los santos, el perdón de los pecados, la resurrección de la carne y la vida eterna. Amén.

Give and it will be given unto you– XIV

Is Father really telling you that you shouldn’t give money to the parish? I have repeated myself several times in these articles that they are not designed to get you to give more money to the parish. These articles are about the spirituality of giving, and if you only pretend to give to Jesus through the Church, don’t you think he sees it? If your attitude is “all the Catholic Church wants is my money!” don’t you think Jesus sees that too? Our attitude about giving is a spiritual matter and reflects the true state of our souls in a way which few other markers help us to discern. Because we feel that our money is our own private property, and no one can tell us how to spend it, it comes down to an issue of letting Jesus into our hearts through our finances. If you have little, and can only give a few cents to the offertory and it is a true sacrifice, given cheerfully, it is true indication of your soul’s health. If you have lots, and in a miserly way give only a tiny amount to the offertory, that also reveals the state of your soul. If the salvation of our souls is truly what we are about in the Catholic Church [and it is!] then doesn’t it follow that we must challenge ourselves to give to God with the right intention? IHM pray for us. Fr. Jerry

Dad y se os Dara – XIV El Padre te está diciendo realmente que no tienes que dar dinero a la parroquia? He repetido varias veces en estos artículos qué no fueron escritos con la intención que ustedes tienen que dar más dinero a la parroquia. Estos articulos son sobre la espiritualidad de dar, y si tú pretendes dar a Jesús por medio de la Iglesia, no crees tú que él lo ve? Si tu actitud es “todo lo que la Iglesia Católica quiere es mi dinero!” no crees tú que Jesús ve eso también? Nuestra actitud de dar es un caso espiritual y refleja el verdadero es-tado de nuestras almas de una manera que muy pocas señales nos ayudarán a discernir. Porque nosotros pensamos que nuestro dinero es nuestra propiedad privada, y nadie nos puede decir como gastarlo, viene hacer un caso de dejar a Jesús entrar en nuestros corazones por medio de nuestras finanzas. Si tú tienes poco, y puedes dar solamente unos pocos centavos de ofrecimiento y es un verdadero sacrificio, dalo con alegria, es una verdadera indicación de la salud de tu alma. Si tú tienes mucho, y das de una manera miserable una cantidad pequeña de ofrecimiento, eso también revela el estado de tu alma. Si la salvación de nuestras almas es verdaderamente como somos en la Iglesia Católica (y es!) entonces no sería lo lógico que nosotros debemos retarnos para dar A Dios con la intención correcta? Ora por nosotros Fr. Jerry
