February 14, 2016 FIRST SUNDAY OF LENT
DEAR PARISHIONERS and VISITORS:
With the first Sunday of Lent, wehave a special step in the Rite ofChristian Initiation of Adults (RCIA). This is the way that our church familyreceives new adult members.
There are two types of people in RCIA: those who seek to be baptized at Easter or those who havealready been baptized with another Christian group and now wantto make the home for their faith in the Catholic church.
Both types of people are invited to the Enrollment of their Namesat a special Mass. This means that the Church recognizes theirreadiness for the sacraments of initiation. On their part theyexpress their will to receive these sacraments.
What follows in the coming weeks is a time of purification andenlightenment. This preparation includes prayers called scrutiniesat Sunday Mass which ask for God’s special help for them to turnfrom sin.
Please keep the dear people in the RCIA program in your prayers. Their journey of faith reminds us of God’s call to each Catholicfor ongoing conversion of mind and heart.
Fr. Galvon

Lenten Prayer for Spiritual Renewal
Lord, during this Lenten Season, nourish me
with Your Word of life and make me one
with You in love and prayer.
Fill my heart with Your love and keep me
faithful to the Gospel of Christ.
Give me the grace to rise above my human
weakness.
Give me new life by Your Sacraments,
especially the Mass.
Father, our source of life, I reach out with
joy to grasp Your hand; let me walk more
readily in Your ways.
Guide me in Your gentle mercy, for left to
myself I cannot do Your Will.
Father of love, source of all blessings,
help me to pass from my old life of sin to the
new life of grace.
Prepare me for the glory of Your Kingdom.
I ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ,
Your Son, Who lives and reigns with You
and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever.
Amen.

Tú eres mi Dios y en ti confío
El demonio pretende apartar a Cristo del proyecto del
Padre. En vez del camino de la humillación, del
abajamiento, del amor, de la cruz, se le presenta la opción
de un triunfo fácil, el de la popularidad, el de los gestos
espectaculares, del poder, de la fuerza, de la liberación
parcial del hombre. Jesús rechaza una y otra vez las
sugestiones del tentador citando las palabras de la Escritura
y, hasta las últimas consecuencias, la voluntad de Dios, de
cumplir la propia misión en la linea establecida por su
Padre.
La Palabra en tu vida
Hemos comenzado la Cuaresma con el “ Miércoles de
Ceniza “. En este tiempo se nos invita a cambio de camino,
de ruta, si es que no vamos por él. Señor Jesús, ayúdanos
a vencer nuestras tentaciones con el ayuno y la oración.
En nuestras vidas se van presentando las oportunidades de
servirle al Señor, y en ocaciones, tomando parte activa en
alguno de los ministerios en la Sagrada Eucaristía. Por tal
motivo se requiere mejor conocimiento y preparación cosa
que ofrece dicho manual.

STEWARDSHIP IN OUR PARISH
Stewardship Profile of the Week
Julisses, Julio, Juany, and Liliana
Have been coming to the cathedralfor 3.5 years.
Julio is a Eucharistic Minister; Juanyis a lector; Julisses and Liliana arealtar servers.
Motto: “For the love of God, and toserve God; to serve as a family andas an example for our children.”
Thanks, Longoria family, for yourdedicated and joyful service to ourcathedral, and to the Hispaniccommunity in our church. May Godbless you abundantly!
STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION
The second reading from Saint Paul to the Romans is afavorite of those involved in the ministry of evangelization.There are no “secret” disciples of the Lord. Those whoexercise good stewardship of their faith realize that publiclyidentifying themselves as followers of Christ has acleansing effect on their lives. Openly confessing Christmakes them more conscious of how they live their dailylives. Are we content to privatize our faith or are we goodstewards of a faith that we share, make public, andregularly identify as a life in Christ? w w w .catholicstew ardship.org
