From the Pastor’s Column / Noticias del Párroco

You probably noticed the restorations to the ceilings of the side aisles in church over the past two weeks. There was a lot of cracking and peeling in these areas. We originally received a bid from a company to per-form this work. The bid was approximately $22,000. Then, I was approached by a group of our Hispanic parishioners. They offered to do the work entirely for free, asking the parish only to pay for the paint. Sever-al of them do construction and restoration work pro-fessionally, and they had their equipment as well as the experience and knowledge to do the job well. We are so grateful to these parishioners for their generosi-ty. Their gift of time and talent to the parish not only helped beautify our Church but also serves as an inspi-ration for all of us.

Es probable que has notado las restauraciones en los techos de los pasillos laterales de la iglesia durante las últimas dos semanas. Había muchas grietas y peladuras en estas áreas. Originalmente recibimos una oferta de una empresa para realizar este trabajo. La oferta fue de aproximadamente $22,000. Luego, un grupo de feli-greses hispanos se me acercó. Se ofrecieron a hacer el trabajo completamente gratis, pidiéndole a la parroquia que pagara la pintura sola. Varios de ellos realizan traba-jos de construcción y restauración profesionalmente, y tenían sus equipos, así como la experiencia y el conoci-miento para hacer bien el trabajo. Estamos muy agrade-cidos a estos feligreses por su generosidad. Su don de tiempo y talento a la parroquia no solo ayudó a embel-lecer nuestra Iglesia sino que también nos sirvió de in-spiración para todos nosotros.

Your Loving Sacrifices Make All The Difference

March 17, 2019 2nd Sunday of Lent

Lent is a call not just to “give up something” but more im-

portant to “give something for the poor.” Wherever you live in the parish, there are poor families within walking distance of your home. When in need, they ring the rectory bell. They are, in effect, ringing your doorbell.

Is there a family you know who needs assistance?

Please call the Society of St. Vincent de Paul so that together we can help the suffering and poor.

WE THANK EACH OF YOU for the great love you show to our Borromeo Family carrying on the

work of Jesus and to those in need-by the generosity you display when you share your treasure, and all God’s gifts to you, given for others.

On the second Sunday of Lent, we move from Jesus' retreat to the desert and temptation by the devil to the glory shown in Jesus' Trans-figuration. On the first Sunday of Lent, our Gospel always tells the story of Jesus' temptation in the desert. On the second Sunday, we always hear the story of Jesus' Transfiguration.

The report of Jesus' Transfiguration is found in each of the Synoptic Gospels—Matthew, Mark, and Luke. The context for Luke's Trans-figuration story is similar to that found in both Matthew and Mark. The Transfiguration occurs after Peter's confession that Jesus is the Messiah and Jesus' prediction about his Passion. After the prediction there is a discussion of the cost of discipleship in each of these Gos-pels. The placement of the Transfiguration story close to Peter's con-fession and Jesus' prediction encourages us to examine the Transfig-uration in the larger context of the Paschal Mystery.

The Transfiguration occurs on a mountain in the presence of just three of Jesus' disciples—Peter, James and John. These are among the first disciples that Jesus called in Luke's Gospel. We recently heard this Gospel at Mass, on the fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time. Only Luke's Gospel, which often describes Jesus at prayer, indicates that Jesus is praying as his appearance changes to bright white. Luke indicates that the three disciples were sleeping while Jesus prayed. They will be sleeping again as Jesus prays in the Garden of Gethsemane before his Passion and death.

As they awake, Peter and the disciples see Jesus Transfigured and Elijah and Moses present with Jesus. Elijah and Moses, both signifi-cant figures in the history of Israel, represent Jesus' continuity with the Law and the Prophets. In Matthew's and Mark's Gospels, there is reference to conversation among Jesus, Elijah, and Moses, but only Luke's Gospel explains that this conversation is about Jesus' later accomplishments in Jerusalem. Luke describes this as his exodus, connecting Jesus' Passion, death, and Resurrection with the Israel's Exodus from Egypt.

On witnessing Jesus' Transfiguration and seeing Jesus with Elijah and Moses, Peter offers to construct three tents for them. Having just awoken, perhaps Peter's offer was made in confusion. We also notice that Peter reverted from his earlier confession that Jesus is the Messi-ah, calling Jesus “master” instead. As if in reply to Peter's confusion, a voice from heaven speaks, affirming Jesus as God's Son and com-manding that the disciples listen to him. This voice from heaven re-calls the voice that was heard at Jesus' baptism which, in Luke's Gos-pel, spoke directly to Jesus as God's Son.

In his Transfiguration, we see an anticipation of the glory of Jesus' Resurrection. In each of the reports of the Transfiguration, the disci-ples keep secret what they have seen. Not until they also witness his Passion and death will the disciples understand Jesus' Transfiguration. We hear this story of Jesus' Transfiguration early in Lent, but we have the benefit of hindsight. In our hearing of it, we anticipate Jesus' Res-urrection even as we prepare to remember Jesus' Passion and death.
