GOD’S CALL - The person who has
Father Michael Suszynski, Pastor Father Diego Ossa, Parochial Vicar Father Jose George, Parochial Vicar Deacon Joseph Krzanowski Deacon Frank Julian Deacon Pablo Maldonado
been “saved,” who has “heard the good news of salvation,” still lives in an unsaved world, a world sadly oblivious to the presence of God. Today’s readings outline how the disciple is present in the world. The outline begins with Isaiah: “Share your bread . . . shelter the oppressed . . . clothe the naked” (Isaiah 58:7). Those who hear the word of salvation are not insensitive to the urgent needs of others. Then Paul reminds his flock that he brought Christ to them not in eloquence or wisdom, but by being with them in the “weakness and fear” of their daily lives (1 Corinthians 2:3). Finally, Jesus tells his disciples to go out into the gloom and darkness of the streets of the world and let God’s light shine through their good deeds. We disciples don’t save the world. To the extent, however, that we have heard the word of God and been awakened to God’s presence, we may spread that word and bring that presence to others. © Copyright, J. S. Paluch Co.

Catechist information: Are you an active Catholic adult who feels called to share their faith with others? Our parish needs you! Please call Carmen at the parish office to share where your gifts may be of help to our faith formation process. We are always in need of male and female Catholic sponsors and catechists for Adult confirmation, RCIA, and faith formation classes. Dare to be transformed in your faith-join our parish catechetical team! Call Carmen 885-7861 or Carmen_dre@tampabay.rr.com for more information. Catechist Certification: For more information on Catechist Certification and modules offered please see the Diocesan website: www.dosp.org or contact Carmen at the parish office for more info. Reminder: Faith Formation Parents on Sunday mornings Thank you for walking your children each Sunday to their classrooms. We appreciate that you feel our environment as one that is safe; however, it is in the best interest of your child(ren) for you to safely drop and collect them in their classroom each week.
RCIA-Inquiry Sessions: If you are an adult who is interested in learning more about the Catholic faith, please join us for informal gatherings where we invite questions and develop a relationship with Jesus Christ. Please join us every Monday night from 7:30-9pm in the parish conference room. No need to call first, just come and see! RCIA-Catechumenate Process: The rite of Christian initiation is a process for adults who “freely and consciously seek the living God and enter the way of faith and conversion as the Holy Spirit opens their hearts.” Many of us experienced the Rite of Acceptance in November at Mass, where 49 individuals came before our community asking for prayers and support from us. As we continue to meet each Sunday, those who are in the RCIA process continue to ask for your prayers. We thank all those sponsors who have committed to establishing a relationship with each of these individuals and will continue to share their faith with them. Remember, we are all a part of this process…..it is our responsibility as baptized Catholics to assist those who seek to be one with us. If you feel called to be a part of the RCIA ministry as a Catholic sponsor, please contact Carmen at the parish office.

PILDORITAS DE FE DEL PADRE DIEGO La Importancia de un Líder Podemos decir, en un sentido amplio, que es un líder (hombre o mujer) es alguien que tiene una responsabilidad pastoral, en un grupo o comunidad de oración. El líder es alguien que de alguna manera (sea por su servicio de autoridad, sea por realizar alguna función del grupo), conduce a los demás hacia una meta. La forma de conducir depende de su formación como líder y de la visión que tiene de la meta a la quiere llegar. En este sentido último en el que hemos denominado “PASTORAL” a esta clase de responsabilidad. En otras palabras, la meta del servicio del líder no es otra que la meta de Jesús: dar gloria al Padre mediante la salvación del mundo. La formación del líder es la base para su servicio en la Comunidad Cristiana, pues todo el que está bien formado será como su maestro: Lucas 6, 40. Cada día se ve más la necesidad de lideres laicos que puedan dar la palabra, presidir asambleas de oración y conducir al pueblo de Dios en un estilo de vida Cristiana. Además la revaloración del laico en la Iglesia, de una forma vigorosa y responsable al servicio de Dios en los hermanos. Somos llamados, para algo grande en la obra co-creadora y redentora del Señor, a través de la oración y la búsqueda incesante de lo que el Señor tiene para mi (laico/líder) en la comunión y participación con mis hermanos. El trabajo no esta terminado en nuestra formación como lideres. (MIRE CADA QUIEN COMO CONSTRUYE): 1 Cor 3, 10/14 Déjate transformar por la fuerza del Espíritu Santo para que él haga de ti una nueva creatura, y con un corazón humilde y sencillo hacer como dice San Pablo (es necesario de que yo me haga pequeño para que el aparezca, transforme mi vida y la vida de nuestra comunidad en la cual servimos). Ánimo, prepárate para lo que el Señor tiene para ti.

EL LLAMADO DE DIOS La persona que ha sido “salvada” y que ha “oído la buena noticia de salvación” sigue viviendo en un mundo que no ha sido salvado, un mundo tristemente inconsciente de la presencia de Dios. Las lecturas de hoy bosquejan cómo el discípulo se hace presente al mundo. Ese perfil se inicia con Isaías: “Comparte tu pan con el hambriento. . . abre tu casa al pobre sin techo. . . viste al desnudo” (Isaías 58:7). Los que escuchan la palabra de salvación no son insensibles a las urgentes necesidades de los demás. Pablo le recuerda a su rebaño que él le trajo a Cristo no con elocuencia o sabiduría, sino que permaneció con ellos “débil y temblando de miedo” en medio de su brega diaria (1 Corintios 2:3). Finalmente, Jesús dice a sus discípulos que vayan a la desesperanza y oscuridad de las calles del mundo y dejen que la luz de Dios brille a través de sus obras buenas. Los discípulos no salvan el mundo. Sin embargo, si nosotros hemos escuchado la Palabra de Dios y hemos empezado a discernir su presencia, podemos proclamar esa Palabra y traer esa presencia a los demás.© Copyright, J. S. Paluch Co.

NUESTRA CULTURA Mucho de nosotros sazonamos alimentos no sólo con sal, sino con otros productos, como chilis y jalapeños. Pero también nos referimos a personas aburridas o sin vitalidad como “sosas” es decir, carentes de la sal que da sabor a las cosas y produce alegría. Sal es el símbolo de vitalidad y de alegría.
