Queridos Amigos de Santa Luisa: El domingo 26 de enero, Tercer Domingo en Tiempo Ordinario, los católicos en todo el mundo observamos el Domingo de la Palabra de Dios y empezamos, a invitación del Papa Francisco, a dar un enfoque especial durante este año a la importancia de conocer la Biblia. Tuvo sentido escoger ese domingo en particular, en el cual leímos que Jesús – la Palabra encarnada – comienza su ministerio de predicación (Mateo 4:17). Nosotros creemos que el ministerio de Jesús, su predicación, vida, muerte y resurrección, es el cumplimiento de todo lo que Dios había revelado en las Escrituras hebreas (que nosotros los cristianos llamamos el Antiguo Testamento). Por esa razón, la primera lectura de la Misa de Domingo es tomada del Antiguo Testamento (excepto en la temporada de Pascua, cuando escuchamos de los Hechos de los Apóstoles). Con mucha frecuencia existe un paralelismo directo entre la primera lectura y el Evangelio. Jesús, como buen judío, estaba inmerso en las Escrituras hebreas; así que es bueno para nosotros, como sus seguidores, crecer en nuestro conocimiento y aprecio por ellas. Una forma de entender la Biblia en general, y el Antiguo Testamento en particular, es que no es un solo libro; más bien, es una colección de libros escritos en tiempos diferentes a lo largo de casi dos mil años de historia. Podemos pensar en la Biblia como una biblioteca de textos sagrados, los cuales creemos que son la palabra inspirada por Dios. Es como decir que el Espíritu Santo es el autor, en colaboración con autores humanos. ¡En otra columna hablaré más sobre eso! Esta es una forma sencilla de entender lo que forma el Antiguo Testamento: La Ley, a veces llamada el Pentateuco, o los primeros cinco libros de la Biblia: Génesis, Éxodo, Levítico, Números y Deuteronomio. Dios revela la ley al pueblo de Israel para formar con ellos una relación de alianza. Los Profetas hablan al pueblo de Israel sobre lo que necesita hacer para evitar el desastre, y lo llaman a volver al Señor cuando han dejado de escuchar. En numerosas ocasiones los Profetas hablan “del que está por venir,” es decir, el Mesías. Libros poéticos y de sabiduría son un grupo más variado de libros que contienen enseñanzas, dichos y parábolas sobre cómo vivir la vida, y nos enseñan especialmente a ver a Dios en todas las cosas. Escritos con frecuencia en lenguaje poético, incluyen los Salmos, Proverbios, Cantar de los Cantares, Job, Lamentaciones, Eclesiastés, Sirácides, Sabiduría, Esther, Daniel, Ezra, Nehemías y Primera y Segunda Crónicas. El artículo del P. Gary continúa en la página 9...

Dear Friends of St. Louise, On Sunday, January 26, the Third Sunday of Ordinary Time, Catholics throughout the world observed Word of God Sunday and began, at the invitation of Pope Francis, to dedicate a special focus throughout this year to the importance of knowing the Bible. It made sense to choose that particular Sunday, on which we read about Jesus – the incarnate Word – beginning his own preaching ministry (Matthew 4:17). We believe that Jesus’s preaching, ministry, life, death and resurrection is the fulfillment of everything that God revealed in the Hebrew Scriptures (what we Christians call the Old Testament). For that reason, the first reading at Sunday Mass is taken from the Old Testament (except in the Easter season, when we hear from the Acts of the Apostles). Very often, there is a direct parallel between the first reading and the Gospel. Jesus, as a good Jew, was steeped in the Hebrew Scriptures; so it is good for us, as his followers, that we grow in our knowledge and appreciation for them. One way to understand the Bible in general, and the Old Testament in particular, is that it is not one single book – rather, it is a collection of books, written at different times over nearly two thousand years of history. We might think of the Bible as being a library of sacred texts, which we believe are the inspired word of God. That is to say, the Holy Spirit is the author in collaboration with human authors. More on that in another column! Here is a simple way to understand what makes up the Old Testament: The Law, sometimes called the Pentateuch, or the first five books of the Bible: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy. God reveals the law to the people of Israel, to form a covenant relationship with them. The Prophets very often speak to the people of Israel about what they need to do to avoid disaster, and call them to return to the Lord when they have failed to listen. In numerous places the Prophets speak of “one who is to come,” that is, the Messiah. The Writings are a more assorted group of books, many of which are called “wisdom literature.” These writings contain teachings, sayings and parables about how to live life, and teach us especially to look to God in all things. Often written in Fr. Gary’s article continues on pg. 3...

St. Louise Celebrates its 60-Year Anniversary and 30 Years of Hispanic Ministry

St. Louise Parish will begin a year-long celebration of our 60th Anniversary at the 5PM Mass next Saturday, February 15. A reception hosted by the Fil-Am community will follow in the Parish Hall. We will also be celebrating 30 years of Hispanic ministry at the

1PM Mass on Sunday, February 16, 2020. Bishop Joe Tyson, from the Diocese of Yakima, will join us to celebrate the Spanish Mass. Bishop (then Father) Tyson and Fr. Horatio Yanez were the first priests to celebrate the Spanish Mass at St. Louise. A coffee and donut reception will follow the 7:30AM and 9AM Masses, with a cookie and punch reception following the 11AM, 1PM, and 6PM Masses.

Fr. Gary’s article continued... poetic language, they include the Psalms, Proverbs, Song of Songs, Job, Lamentations, Ecclesiastes, Sirach, Wisdom, Es-ther, Daniel, Ezra, Nehemiah, and First and Second Chronicles. As we read each particular part of the Bible, it is important to understand what kind of book we are reading. Just as when we read a newspaper, we would approach an editorial, a report on an event, the comics or the sports page differently, so too in reading the Bible. For the next year, I plan to dedicate at least one column each month to the Bible. Next time: How did we get the book or col-lection of books we call “the Bible”? Fr. Gary Zender Next week, we start our year-long celebration of the 60th anni-versary of St. Louise Parish!

2020 Parish Stewardship of Treasure Commitment Renewal There will not be a formal Stewardship of Treasure pledge drive for our English-speaking parishioners for calendar 2020 be-cause of the Archdiocesan Called to Serve as Christ Campaign. As described in Fr. Gary’s letter to all parish households (visit www.stlouise.org), those who made a pledge to the Stewardship of Treasure renewal in 2019 will simply have their pledge rolled over to 2020, unless we hear otherwise from you. This means if you pledged a specific amount every week/month/year for 2019, that same amount and frequency of contribution will be rolled over for 2020. If you didn’t make a Stewardship pledge last year and would like to do so this year, or if you want to increase, decrease, or cancel your 2020 rollover pledge, please go online to www.stlouise.org/treasure or scan the QR code to submit your pledge. The Hispanic Leadership recom-mended we continue with making their commitment of Steward-ship of Treasure by completing pledge cards at Mass, which is what we have done. If you have any questions, please contact Barbara Abbott, 425-214-5471 or [email protected], or Jonathan Taasan, 425-214-5473 or [email protected]. Thank you for your faithful and generous support of St. Louise Parish.

CALLED to SERVE as CHRIST Campaign We are most thankful to everyone who has had the chance to com-plete and return their commitment form for the Called to Serve as Christ Campaign. As of January 9 we have raised $1.5 million or 64% of our $2.3 mil-lion goal. Before Christmas we were at 22% participation and now we’re at 26% participation. It is very encouraging to see partici-

pation over 20% - and counting! If you haven’t had the chance to make a decision to support the campaign, will you help us exceed 30-35% participation by completing a pledge form and making a financial or prayerful commitment? We ask anyone who has yet to make a gift to the campaign to join us in doing so by donating online at www.calledtoserveaschrist.org/donate. Thank you for your prayers and generous response to the Called to Serve as Christ Campaign.

...El articulo del P. Gary continuó Al leer cada parte de la Biblia, es importante entender qué clase de libro estamos leyendo. Así como cuando leemos un periódi-co abordamos de forma diferente un editorial, el reporte de un evento, la tira cómica o la página de deportes, también así al leer la Biblia. Este año planeo dedicar por lo menos una columna al mes a la Biblia. La próxima vez: ¿Cómo fue que obtuvimos el libro o co-lección de libros que llamamos “la Biblia”? Padre Gary Zender ¡La próxima semana empezamos nuestra celebración del 60o aniversario de la Parroquia de Santa Luisa!
