CHOICE
“If you choose you can keep the command-ments,” Sirach tells us. God “has set before you fire and
water; to whichever you choose, stretch forth your hand” (Sirach 15:15, 16). This is a great mystery: God
does not control us so completely that we cannot choose our own path. We have certain boundaries, of course, but no one but we can choose our way within
those boundaries.
In today’s reading from Matthew’s Gospel, Jesus reminds us of our freedom and our responsibility for
our lives. He calls us to look beyond the words of the commandments, all the way to their meaning. Look be-yond the adultery to the selfishness that poisons our love. Look beyond the murder to the anger that eats away at our compassion. Look beyond the perjured testimony to
the lies and deception that drive our behavior.
Our vocation is to choose life for ourselves, and to choose a path through our part of the world that helps make life possible and more abundant for others as well.

TÚ DECIDES “Si tú lo quieres, puedes guardar los
mandamientos”, nos dice Eclesiástico (Sirácide). Dios “ha puesto delante de ti fuego y agua; extiende la mano a lo que quieras” (Eclo 15:15, 16). Este es un gran misterio: Dios no nos controla tan completamente que no podemos elegir nuestro propio camino. Es cierto que te-nemos límites, pero nadie sino nosotros mismos podemos elegir el camino dentro de esos lími-
tes. En la lectura de hoy del Evangelio se-gún san Mateo, Jesús nos recuerda que somos
libres y responsables de nuestra vida. Nos llama a ir más allá de las palabras de los mandamien-
tos para considerar su significado. Si vas más allá del adulterio verás el egoísmo que envene-na nuestro amor. Si vas más allá del asesinato verás la ira que corroe nuestra compasión. Si
vas más allá del falso testimonio (perjurio) verás las mentiras y engaños que producen este com-
portamiento. Nuestra vocación es elegir la vida para nosotros mismos, y tomar un camino a través de nuestro mundo que haga la vida posible y más
abundante para otros también. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

LOS SIETE SANTOS FUNDADORES DE LA OR-DEN DE LOS SIERVOS DE MARÍA
17 de febrero La fiesta litúrgica de hoy honra a los siete
santos fundadores de la Orden de los Siervos de Santa María Virgen cuyos nombres eran: Alejo, Amadeo,
Hugo, Benito, Bartolomé, Gerardino y Juan; un grupo de comerciantes que renunciaron a la vida de negoci-os, dejaron lo necesario para sus familias, repartieron lo demás entre los pobres y se dedicaron por entero a la veneración de María Virgen, yéndose a vivir a una montaña italiana y posteriormente, asumiendo una vida ermitaña, esto es, de oración, ayuno extremo y penitencia. Tiempo después, a petición del delegado del Sumo Pontífice, todos, excepto uno, se ordenan
sacerdotes. El hermano Alejo, por considerar el sacer-docio como algo muy grande para él, decide perman-ecer como hermano. La Congregación fue aprobada en 1304 y la fiesta litúrgica se enmarca el día de hoy, precisamente porque en este día murió el último de
ellos, el hermano Alejo, de quienes los jóvenes novicios escucharon el testimonio de santidad que dio de sus
compañeros así como de su vida misma. —Miguel Arias, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
THE CHAIR OF ST. PETER THE APOSTLE February 22
In brushing up for “Catholic Jeopardy,” it might help to know that there is only one feast on the calendar for a thing, rather than a person or mystery. It’s for a chair: Saint
Peter’s chair in fact After the Resurrection, there can be no doubt that the disciples reserved a special place for Simon Peter in the upper room. Later, Peter became the bishop of Antioch in
today’s Syria, the place where we were first called Christians. From there, he went to Rome, the center of the Empire, where it is said that Peter sat in a chair in the house of
Priscilla and Aquila to instruct his flock. Jesus, in entrusting the keys of the Kingdom to Peter and his successors, entrust-
ed his compassion and mercy to them, and charged them with pointing to the Kingdom of God. Compassion and mer-
cy are to resonate through their teaching. Since the ancient sign of a teacher is the chair
(“disciple” literally means one who sits at the feet of a teach-er), Peter’s chair has long been treasured. Today there is a symbolic shrine of Peter’s chair above the main altar of St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome. This monument is the last work of Bernini, a huge bronze throne supported by four doctors of
the Church: Augustine and Ambrose from the Western Church, and Chrysostom and Athanasius from the East.
High above it is the alabaster window of the descent of the Holy Spirit.

Archbishop’s Annual Appeal Commitment Weekend On the weekend of Feb. 15th & 16th, we will have our 2020
Archbishop’s Annual Appeal Commitment weekend.
Our goal this year assigned by the Archdiocese of Atlanta is $73,500 which is about the same as this past year.
Due to the generosity of our parishioners, this past year we were able to exceed our goal by almost $8,000, which will be returned to us this
Spring to be used for our operational expenses here at the parish.
A large percentage of the Annual Appeal goes to fund the education of our seminarians, our future priests. Your generosity will help sup-port seminarian Elliot Andrade from St. Michael along with our sem-
inarian in residence, Juan Carlos Villota. May God bless you and thank you for your 2020 commitments.
