S W SAINT FRANCES OF ROME (1384-1440)

March 9

T ’ R First Reading — The L said to Abram: All the families of the earth shall find blessing in you (Genesis 12:1-4a) Psalm — Lord, let your mercy be on us, as we place our trust in you (Psalm 33). Second Reading — God has called us to a holy life, not because of our works but according to grace (2 Timothy 1:8b-10). Gospel — Atop a high mountain, Jesus was transfigured before Peter, James, and John (Matthew 17:1-9). The English translation of the Psalm Responses from Lectionary for Mass © 1969, 1981, 1997, International Commission on English in the Liturgy Corporation. All rights reserved.

Lent is all about change and change is usually not easy. In order to change we have to leave something behind. Today we hear about a very old man who decides to answer God’s call. Abram experiences a tremendous amount of change when he leaves everything behind, risking it all for God’s promise. Jesus changes, is transfigured, right before the eyes of his disciples. The Lenten scriptures issue the call for us to change, to be transfigured, so that we, too, will soon share in the glory of God. What is it that the Lord is asking us to leave behind? Are we willing to take the risk for the promise made by God? These questions are at the heart of the Lenten journey of conversion. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

Talk about chat room dangers with your teen

Online chat rooms are great places for people to connect over shared interests and ideas. But for young children and teenagers who may not be internet-savvy, they’re also a great place for predators to lay groundwork. In a chat room, anyone can be whomever they want — and predators hide behind personas of friends. Talk to your child about online safety rules, such as never agreeing to meet in person and never providing personal and identifying information. Review chats frequently to ensure that your child is engaging in safe conversations.

For more tips on chat room safety, request a copy of the VIRTUS® article “Exposing the Dangers of Internet Chat

Rooms” at: https://www.virtusonline.org/virtus/printarticle.cfm?a=280&theme=0

Nature and human nature—plagues and wars—turned late medieval Rome into a living hell, particularly for the sick and poor. Frances, by birth and marriage well provided for, was a devoted wife and mother; but like Benedictine Oblates, who to this day “pray and work” while living with their families and working in the world, she joined like-minded laywomen friends in ministering to society’s most vulnerable. Frances’ charity was not only “hands on” but “in home.” Her palace became a hospital after the plague claimed two of her three children. When her husband’s death ended their loving marriage of forty years, Frances joined other widowed Oblates in community. In an interesting link to the United States, our nation’s premier religious congregation for women of color, the Oblate Sisters of Providence, in 1833 established bonds of spiritual communion with these Oblates of Saint Frances in Rome.

S S

Cuaresma es cambio y cambiar no es fácil. Para poder cambiar debemos dejar algo atrás. Hoy escuchamos acerca de un hombre muy viejo que decide responder al llamado de Dios. Abram atraviesa por una tremenda cantidad de cambios cuando todo lo deja y lo arriesga por la promesa de Dios. Jesús cambia, se transfigura, justo delante de los ojos de sus discípulos. Las escrituras en Cuaresma nos llaman a cambiar, a ser transfigurados, para que también nosotros pronto participemos en la gloria de Dios. ¿Qué nos pide Dios dejar atrás? ¿Estamos dispuestos a arriesgarlo todo por la promesa que Dios hace? Estas son las preguntas centrales en el camino de conversión de la Cuaresma. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

SANTA FRANCISCA ROMANA (1384-1440) 9 de marzo

Francisca nació en una familia cristiana donde aprendió a amar a Dios y a los pobres. Contrajo nupcias muy joven, pero jamás abandonó su deseo de servir a los pobres, labor pastoral que fue apoyada por Lorenzo, su esposo. Además de ser ejemplar esposa y madre, oraba constantemente y salía del palacio vestida con ropas humildes para ir a visitar a los enfermos y llevar alimento a los pobres. Su amor por los marginados era tan grande que cuando azotaron inundaciones y pestes no dudó en abrir su palacio para que se convirtiera en hospital y refugio de damnificados, cuidando personalmente de ellos y ofreciéndoles alimento. Este amor por los pobres lo compartió con una de sus cuñadas, con quien no sólo practicó la caridad sino compartió el sueño de ser religiosa. Siendo esposa y madre fundó la comunidad de las Oblatas de María, cuyo carisma era vivir en el hogar sirviendo a los pobres. Se unió a esta comunidad religiosa una vez que enviudó y sus hijos crecieron. Para los ciudadanos de Roma fue un vivo ejemplo de Cristo. —Miguel Arias, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

¿S U ? Platique sobre los peligros de las salas de chat

con sus hijos adolescentes

Las salas de chat en línea son muy buenos lugares para que se conecten personas que comparten los mismos intereses e ideas. Pero para los niños pequeños y para los adolescentes que no son expertos

navegando el internet, los chats pueden ser muy buenos lugares para que los depredadores sienten las bases de sus acciones. En una sala de chat cualquiera puede adoptar una personalidad distinta a la verdadera, y los depredadores se hacen pasar por amigos. Platique con sus hijos sobre las reglas de seguridad en línea, como por ejemplo nunca ponerse de acuerdo para conocer a alguien en persona, y nunca proveer su información personal y su información de identificación. Revise los chats frecuentemente para asegurar que su hijo/a está participando en una conversación segura.

Para más consejos sobre la seguridad en las salas de chat, solicite una copia del artículo de VIRTUS®

Sometimes life is difficult. Draw in the blank face so it looks like you. Then work your way through the teardrops

until you reach the name of Jesus.

Remember that Jesus is with us during good times and hard times.

C - P G C , S , M , O

A L A You are reminded to use common sense in your participation at Mass and the reception of Holy Communion during the annual cold and flu season, and especially the current outbreak of the coronavirus. If you are feeling ill or think you may have been exposed to a virus, you should refrain from offering your hand to others at the sign of peace or during the recitation of the Lord’s prayer. A smile and a heartfelt, "Peace be with you," should suffice. During the recitation of the Lord’s prayer, you are invited to assume the Orans position. That is the raising of the hands and eyes toward heaven as a gesture acknowledging our sole reliance on God. Likewise, if you are not comfortable in receiving Holy Communion on the tongue or from the communal chalice for fear of infection, you should feel no pressure to do so. We understand that some will refrain from participation in the liturgy or the sign of peace and the communal chalice out of care for our well-being and not out of unkindness or a lack of piety.

For further clarification please contact Sr. Rosanne Belpedio, CSJ at the Office for Worship

of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles email at [email protected]

Se les recuerda que deben usar el sentido común en su participación en la misa, así como en la recepción de la Sagrada Comunión durante la temporada anual de frío e influenza e influenza y especialmente ahorita con el Coronavirus. Si se sienten mal o piensan que pueden haber estado expuestos a un virus, deben abstenerse de ofrecer su mano a los demás durante la señal de la paz o durante el Padre Nuestro. Una sonrisa y un sincero, "La paz sea con ustedes", es suficiente. Durante el Padre Nuestro, se nos invita a asumir la posición orante. Dicha posición, es en la que se elevan las manos y los ojos hacia el cielo como un gesto de que reconocemos que nuestra confianza esta puesta en Dios. Del mismo modo, si usted no está cómodo de recibir la Sagrada Comunión en la lengua o de participar del cáliz comunal por miedo a obtener alguna infección, no debe sentir presión alguna para hacerlo. Entendemos que algunos se abstendrán de participar en la liturgia o de la señal de la paz y del cáliz comunal debido a tener preocupación por nuestro bienestar y no por falta de amabilidad o falta de piedad.

We are under very strict scrutiny to comply with the archdiocesan policies adopted under the Charter for the Protection of Minors established by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops and its annual compliance audit.

Classes are offered continually at various parishes on a rotating basis

(visit www.virtusonline.org).

Fr. Art Pastor Gracias por su generoso servicio en nuestra Arquidiócesis. Todos los sacerdotes, empleados y voluntarios; se requiere que completen el entrenamiento de re-certificación cada cuatro años. Favor de traer a la oficina de la Rectoría, copia de su certificado; si su certificado expiró, es su obligación buscar lo más pronto posible, donde asistir y hacer cita para tomar la clase y así cumplirá con este asunto urgente. Estamos bajo estricto escudriño, para obedecer las pólizas de la Arquidiócesis, adoptadas por la carta, para la Protección de menores establecida por la Conferencia Católica de los Obispos de los Estados Unidos y es un acuerdo revisar anualmente.
