Queridos hermanos y hermanas de la parroquia de Santa Clara de Asís,

Mientras nos embarcamos en nuestro viaje de Cuaresma esta semana a partir del Miércoles de

Ceniza, preparamos nuestra mente, cuerpo y espíritu para una temporada de oración y reflexión.

La Sagrada Escritura a menudo proporciona una idea de cómo debemos abordar el viaje. El

Evangelio de hoy hace exactamente eso en el verso final cuando Jesús les recuerda a Sus

discípulos:

"Sé perfecto, como tu Padre celestial es perfecto".

Es importante prestar mucha atención a cómo se usa la palabra perfecto. Jesús no estaba

sugiriendo a sus discípulos que lograran un estado de perfección al llevar vidas sin pecado. Pero

más bien, estaba sugiriendo que se volvieran más completos. Para entender mejor lo que Jesús

quiere decir, necesitamos referirnos a un versículo del Antiguo Testamento cuando Dios le dijo a

Israel:

“Serás santo; porque yo Jehová tu Dios soy santo ". (Levítico 19: 2)

Jesús, por lo tanto, está llamando a sus discípulos (y a nosotros) a ser santos y no perfectos. Ser

santo requiere que imitemos las cualidades amorosas de Dios a través de la palabra y la acción.

La Cuaresma nos presenta una maravillosa oportunidad de ser santos a través de la oración diaria,

el tiempo dedicado a la Sagrada Escritura, los pequeños sacrificios que hacemos, los actos de

caridad y la comunión con los demás. Hay varias iniciativas llenas de fe que ofrece nuestra

parroquia a lo largo de la Cuaresma que nos ayudarán a crecer espiritualmente. Te animo a que

participes en una o en todas, según lo permita tu horario. Simplemente vea el sitio web de la

parroquia, recoja una copia del boletín de la parroquia o comuníquese con la oficina de la

parroquia para obtener más información. Mientras viajamos juntos durante la Cuaresma,

esforcémonos por ser más santos como nuestro Señor Jesucristo nos llama a hacer.

Paz y gracia:

Sam Spoto

Acolito

Seven Sunday in ordinary time February 23, 2020

[ 3 ] SAINT CLARE of ASSISI PARISH

Dear Brothers and Sisters of St. Clare of Assisi Parish,

As we embark on our Lenten journey this week starting on Ash Wednesday, we prepare

our mind, body and spirit for a season of prayer and reflection. Sacred Scripture often

provides insight as to how we should approach the journey. Today’s Gospel does just that in

the final verse when Jesus reminds His disciples to:

“be perfect, just as your heavenly Father is perfect.”

It is important to pay close attention to how the word perfect is being used. Jesus was not

suggesting to His disciples that they achieve a state of perfection by leading sinless lives. But

rather, He was suggesting that they become more whole. To better understand what Jesus

means, we need to refer back to a verse from the Old Testament when God said to Israel:

“You shall be holy; for I Yahweh your God am Holy.” (Lev. 19:2)

Jesus, therefore, is calling upon His disciples (and us) to be holy, and not perfect. To be holy

requires that we imitate the loving qualities of God through word and action.

Lent presents us with a wonderful opportunity to be holy through daily prayer, time spent in

Sacred Scripture, small sacrifices that we make, charitable acts, and fellowship with others.

There are a number of faith filled initiatives that our parish offers throughout Lent which will

help us grow spiritually. I encourage you to participate in one or all of them as your schedule

allows. Simply view the parish website, pick up a copy of the parish bulletin, or contact the

parish office for more information. As we journey together during Lent, let us strive to

become more holy as our Lord Jesus Christ calls us to do.

Grace and Peace:

Sam Spoto

SAINT CLARE of ASSISI PARISH [ 5 ]

E

Stewards Pray

“But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you…” MATTHEW 5:44

Love your enemies, easier said than done, no doubt. But, remember, the foundation of Stewardship is prayer.

When we are in close communication with God, it opens our heart and it turns our attention away from “me” and moves it towards God and others. It allows us to have a little more empathy for “our enemy”. When we pray for others, even “our enemies”, maybe it softens their hearts

as well.

"Pero te digo, ama a tus enemigos y reza por los que te persiguen ..." MATEO 5:44

Ama a tus enemigos, más fácil decirlo que hacerlo, sin duda. Pero, recuerda, el fundamento de la administración es la oración. Cuando estamos en estrecha comunicación con Dios, abre nuestro corazón y aparta nuestra atención

de "mí" y la acerca a Dios y a los demás. Nos permite tener un poco más de empatía por "nuestro enemigo". Si oramos por los demás, incluso por "nuestros enemigos",

tal vez eso ablande también sus corazones.

2020 APPEAL: “WHO IS MY NEIGHBOR?”

“Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest

commandment. And, the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two

commandments.”

These words of Jesus remind us to love and support our neigh-bors in their time of need. Through the House of Charity Bish-

op’s Annual Appeal, we strive to do that throughout the six counties of the Diocese of Camden.

Your generosity provides services through Catholic Charities offices in each county of South Jersey. In addition, Home and Parish Healthcare Services of the Diocese of Camden brings new life and spirit into the hearts of those we cherish the most – our elderly and disabled, along with their fami-lies and caregivers. Together, we offer support to the weak, vulnerable, and disenfranchised.

Now we invite all parishioners to participate in this important effort. During House of

Charity Appeal Weekend, please make your sacrificial gift to help continue the mission of the Church here in the Diocese of Camden!

¿Quién es mi Prójimo?"

"Ama al Señor tu Dios con todo tu corazón, con toda tu alma y con toda tu mente". Este es el primer y más grande mandamiento. Y el segundo es similar: "Ama a tu prójimo como a ti mismo". Toda la

Ley y los Profetas dependen de estos dos mandamientos ".

Estas palabras de Jesús nos recuerdan que debemos amar y apoyar a nuestro prójimo en su momento de necesidad. La

Casa de la Caridad - La Campaña Anual del Obispo se esfuerza por lograr eso al ayudar a los pobres en los seis condados de

la Diócesis de Camden.

Ahora invitamos a todos los feligreses a participar en este importante esfuerzo. ¡Durante el fin de

semana de la Campaña de la Casa de Caridad, por favor haga el sacrificio de su donativo para ayudar a continuar con

la misión de la Iglesia aquí en la Diócesis de Camden!
