Sts. Peter and Paul Church

February 24, 2019

GOOD NEWS! Arturo Mari, the photographer who followed St. John Paul II from the first to the last day of his pontificate, was once asked which of the millions of photos he took of the pope captured him best. He cited the ones of the pope holding his crozier, resting his head on it as he prayed during so many Masses around the world. This silver pastoral cross accompanied St. John Paul everywhere and was his constant companion in all of his sufferings.

It shows Jesus hanging from a cross that is literally bowing under the weight of his body. You can feel the pull of gravity drawing the victim down in desperation. The photos show St. John Paul resting his forehead on the back of the cross, lost in prayer.

The papal photographer said this image more than any other summed up the pontiff because, before becoming a public figure who changed world history, he was a man of prayer, deeply loving Jesus. He was a man immersed in prayer who spent hours on his knees in order to have the strength to stand with and for those who most needed him.

This is a lesson for us. In order to live the beatitudes, we need to lean on Jesus and find our strength in him. Resting ourselves on the empty side of the crucifix is the best place to learn to love like him and be strong like him.

Reading I - 1 Samuel 26:2, 7-9, 12-13, 22-23 There is a message here to those, like Saul and his men, who wrongly accused David. God defends his own. God defends the innocent and He will bring about justice.

Reading II - 1 Corinthians 15:45-49 As being descendants from Adam we have all been born in his likeness, and subject to the same kind of corruption, disgrace and death; we shall also be raised to a life immortal, such as he now enjoys in the kingdom of God. This proceeds on the ground that what is here spoken belongs to Adam in his twofold state – mortality and immortality, of disgrace and honor, of earth and heaven.

Reading III - Luke 6:27-38

Jesus sets into place the two principles which pose stumbling blocks for most modern Christians: the repudiation of privilege based on wealth and the repudiation of retaliation that spawns violence. These principles are diametrically opposed to the assumptions of the market place that shape American culture.

Rite of Election for Oahu celebrated by Bishop Larry Silva

NAME:____________________________________

Pray for the catechumen and candidates of our Diocese who will be baptized and received into the Catholic faith at Easter. In the ancient church, the catechumens who wanted to be baptized would give their names to their pastor some time before Lent. If the pastor thought they were ready, he would submit their names to the Bishop. At the beginning of Lent, all those seeking baptism would go before the Bishop who would question the catechumens and their godparents about the catechumenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lifestyle. If the Bishop discerned they were ready their names were inscribed in a book or on a scroll. They now become Elect in their final preparation before Sacraments.

Our Rite of Election will be Sunday, March 10, 2019 at the Co-Cathedral of St. Theresa at 1:00 p.m.

The Hawaii Food Bank Distribution was Friday, February 15th. Mahalo to all our volunteers who helped sign in the kupuna and packed 143, 32 pound Hawaii Foodbank boxes.

The next Foodbank Senior Box distribution is March 15th.

MAHALO NUI LOA! With your contributions of non-perishable food items for the January Catholic Care Brown Bag Project, volunteers prepared 50 bags, for our Kupuna, families and those in need of supplemental food.

Mahalo to our volunteers who came to help pack the brown bags with food.

Our next Catholic Care Brown Bag Collection is March 16th and 17th Sorting and packing will be

During Lent we will participate in CRS Rice Bowl, a faith-in -action program that invites us to encounter the needs of the world with the hope of the Resurrection.

We will reflect on how this encounter can be transformative. We will see how our Lenten prayers, fasting and almsgiving can respond to Pope Francis’s invitation to Share the Journey by supporting those worldwide who are forced to flee their homes to find safety or better opportunities.

As we prepare for this holy season, it is especially important to come together as a family and reflect on the crosses of hunger, poverty and war that our brothers and sisters forced to flee their homes. In so doing, we pledge to stand alongside these members of our human family, supporting them as the Gospel calls us to do.

Please consider these suggestions in your family’s Lenten plan: • •

March 18th at 9:00 AM. Distribution will be

•

March 19th and 20th.

Mahalo for sharing your food supplies with those who have less. Your donations help us to help others.

Do you know someone in our parish who would benefit from receiving a food bag to help them make ends meet?

Please tell them to contact our Catholic Care Helpline (808) 941-0675 All information we receive remains confidential.

•

Use your CRS Rice Bowl and Lenten Calendar daily to guide your prayer, fasting and almsgiving.

Read the Stories of Hope and daily reflections to inspire your Lenten journey—and guide your Lenten almsgiving.

Prepare simple, meatless meals on the Fridays of Lent to eat in solidarity with our brothers and sisters around the world.

Visit crsricebowl.org to watch videos of the people and communities you support through your Lenten gifts to CRS Rice Bowl.

We will collect your CRS Rice Bowls at the end of Lent, so stay tuned to learn more.

Thank you for participating in CRS Rice Bowl with your family.

P.S. Did you know that CRS Rice Bowl has a web page specifically for families? Visit crsricebowl.org/families for activities that will help your family grow in our Catholic faith this Lenten season.

Our Lady of Fatima Love & Peace at Home It was an honor and privilege to have Our Lady of Fatima visit our home and grace our family with her presence.

Our daughters were excited to prepare for our rosary readings each day. With all the challenges we have in our world, having Our Lady of Fatima in our home provided love and peace in our family. Our Lady of Fatima’s amazing visit in our home went quickly, but the week’s blessing will last a lifetime.

We are thankful for the time and blessings Our Lady of Fatima has graced our family with during her visit.

With grateful hearts, The Nagao Ohana

Our Lady of Fatima continues to bless Sts. Peter and Paul Parish with her presence. We offer an opportunity for families to grace their home with her presence while praying the rosary daily.

With an open heart, Our Lady of Fatima’s visit to your home serves to strengthen the eternal love our Blessed Virgin Mary continues to share with us. Our Lady of Fatima emphasizes the importance of devotion to the rosary, just as she shared with Francisco, Jacinta and Lucia in their Fatima village over 100 years ago. The prayer allows us to slow down, calm our hearts, and enable us to rest in God’s presence.

Please call the church office and leave a message for Bernie Lopez or Anna Flores if you are interested in welcoming Our Lady of Fatima into your home for a week.

2001 Valican document, On the Use of Yernacular Laxguages in the Publication of the Books of the Rsman Liturgy {Liturgi*rn Atfthenticant),

ralled for a strict alignment between liturgicaltexts and the originai Latin.

Consequently, the current ilnglish translatian at Tlte Ramr,n Misssl (third editi*n) includes a more literal translation of "fi'r cu*t spiritu tLto" as 'And with your spirit" rather than the loose traaslati*n iAnd also with you."

Likcwise, the change frorn "ail" to "many" in the words of cansecration tias tc dc with the Latin text pr$ rnultis, fsr which the exact translation is "f'or many." Moreover, "f0r many" also aligns wlth the words of Jesus at lhe Last Sr"ipper in the Gospels of Mark (14:24) and Matthew {26:28}" And Scriptur* schslar Daniel Harrington, S], cites the Suffering Servant who "bore the sins of many" in isaiah 53:12 as the basis for the passages in Mark and h,{atthew. Others, however, question if the exaet translaticn "for many" misrepresents Christ's universal offer of salvation by his death on the cross.

To be clear, Jesus died to offer salvation tc everyone, even though it's possible that some wsn't accept his offer. As the ccngregation for Divine worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments says: "'For many' is a faithful translation of pro *zultis, whereas'for all'is rather an explanation of the scrt that belongs properly to catechesis."
