—Equipping the Family: Having Critical Conversations The most powerful tool we have when it comes to teaching our children about the beauty of their sexuality in the digital age is conversation. Real, honest, “look them in the eyes” conversations about their deep questions. In the digital age, passive parenting is not an option—the internet never rests. The Diocese of St. Petersburg is setting aside this weekend, February 22-23, 2020 to celebrate our second annual Safe Haven Sunday in order to provide free resources to assist you with confidently talking to your children about internet dangers, as well as their online and offline choices. Safe Haven Sunday is celebrated through prayer and reflection within the context of the Mass. After Mass, you can pick up a prayer card in the church foyer. Each family can also access Covenant Eyes’ most recent e-book, Confident: Helping Parents Navigate Online Exposure. This book includes a free seven-day text-to-opt-in program that provides practical tips for caring adults to create safer digital environments for themselves and young people. Simply text SECURE to 66866 to begin receiving guidance today! Thank you for celebrating with us! If you have any questions about this awareness weekend, please visit https://www.dosp.org/freedom-from-porn.

FOOLISHNESS
Sometimes the idea of repentance seems old-fashioned, naïve, even foolish. But if you’re looking for real foolishness, you’ll find it in today’s readings. We begin with Leviticus and the admonition, “Take no revenge and cherish no grudge” (Leviticus 19:18). We’ve heard that message before, of course, so we might forget how far it is from the so-called “practical realities of life.” Saint Paul warns us about being practical, though. Whoever considers oneself wise had better “become a fool,” because “the wisdom of this world is foolishness in the eyes of God” (1 Corinthians 3:18, 19). This “foolishness” continues in the Gospel: “Offer no resistance to one who is evil” (Matthew 5:39). In fact, offer the other cheek when you’ve been slapped. Hand over your coat as well as your shirt. Be like God, who sends sunshine and rain on the bad as well as the good. “So be perfect,” says Jesus, “just as your heavenly Father is perfect” (5:48).

HABLANDO SOBRE LA SEGURIDAD DE NUESTRA FAMILIA
A veces la noción del arrepentimiento parece anticuada, ingenua y hasta necia. Pero si buscas locura, la encontrarás en las lecturas de hoy. Comencemos con Levítico y la amonestación “no te vengues ni guardes rencor” (Levítico 19:18). Por supuesto que hemos escuchado este mensaje antes, y por eso puede que olvidemos lo alejado que está de las “realidades prácticas de la vida”, contra las que nos advierte san Pablo. Será mejor que quien se considere sabio “se haga ignorante”, porque “la sabiduría de este mundo es ignorancia ante Dios” (1 Corintios 3:18, 19). Esta “locura” continúa en el Evangelio: “No hagan resistencia al hombre malo” (Mateo 5:39). De hecho, presenta la otra mejilla, si has sido golpeado. Dale tu abrigo al que te pide la camisa. Sé como Dios que manda el sol y la lluvia sobre justos e injustos. “Sean perfectos”, dice Jesús, “como su Padre celestial es perfecto” (5:48).
Domingo para hablar sobre la Seguridad de Nuestra FamiliaPreparando la familia sosteniendo conversaciones críticas; la herramienta más poderosa que tenemos para enseñar a nuestros hijos sobre la belleza de su sexualidad en la era digital, es la conversación con ellos. Las conversaciones deben ser reales, honestas, mirándoles a los ojos mientras le contesta sus preguntas. En esta era digital, la crianza pasiva no es una opción porque el internet nunca descansa. La Diócesis de San Petersburgo ha reservado este fin de semana, del día 22 al 23 de febrero del año en curso, para celebrar nuestro segundo domingo anual de Safe Haven (Seguridad Familiar), con el propósito de proporcionar, de forma gratuita, los recursos que le ayudarían a establecer conversaciones con sus hijos sobre los peligros del Internet, así como de las informaciones que reciben a través de otras líneas que distribuyen informaciones nocivas para nuestra juventud. El domingo dedicado a la Seguridad Familiar se celebra a través de la oración y la reflexión dentro del contexto de la misa; cada familia recibirá una tarjeta de oración. Las tarjetas están en la entrada principal del templo. Cada familia también puede acceder el libro electrónico más reciente de Covenant Eyes que trata sobre el tema; el título es Ayudando a los Padres/Madres a Navegar En Línea. Este libro incluye un programa gratuito de mensajes de texto para siete días, que ofrece consejos prácticos para que los adultos interesados preparen entornos digitales más seguros para ellos y para los jóvenes. ¡Simplemente envíe un mensaje de texto con la palabra SEGURO al 66866 para comenzar a recibir orientación de inmediato! ¡Gracias por celebrar con nosotros! Si tiene alguna pregunta sobre este fin de semana de concientización, visite el sitio web: http:// dosp.org/freedom-from-porn
