Saint Joseph Parish Palms
We will be collecting your palms from last year. Please drop them in the basket located in the vestibule this Saturday and Sunday, also the weekend of February 25th & 26th.
You may also drop them off during the week in the parish office.
Table Set Up In The Vestibule If you are a Ministry of St. Joseph and need to set
up a table in the vestibule for any purpose, please contact the office at 916-685-3681.
Annual Catholic Appeal The 2017 Annual Catholic
Appeal is our annual tradition that connects us to thousands of people who need our help every day. Our generous gifts to the Appeal help children find safety and hope, help families break through desperate situations, marginalized individuals find the strength to rebuild lives of dignity, students in economically challenged communities remain in Catholic school, and seminarians prepare for priestly service in our parishes. We may not be social workers or teachers ourselves, but we can put resources into the hands of those Catholic social service programs and parish outreach ministries that help lift people out of poverty by giving to the Annual Catholic Appeal. Please be as generous as you can. Every gift makes a difference.
SABIDURÍA DIVINA El mensaje del Señor, por medio de Moisés, fue
“no te vengarás ni guardaras rencor . . . , ama a tu prójimo como a ti mismo” (Levítico 19:18). Podríamos pensar, “Excelente enseñanza pero no es muy realista”.
Y en el Evangelio de hoy, Jesús se adelanta. ¿Si te golpean, pon la otra mejilla? ¿Tratar a los enemigos como si fueran amigos? Y así otra vez, estamos tentados a pensar que son bonitos ideales, perno no muy prácticos en el “mundo real”.
Pablo hace eco a las palabras de Jesús cuando les dice a los corintios que lo que parece ser sabiduría de los hombres es absurdo para Dios. La sabiduría divina brilla sobre los buenos y los malos, llueve sobre los honestos y deshonestos, sin distinción. Debemos examinar nuestra sabiduría y sentido común para ver cómo estos se comparan con la sabiduría de Dios, y hacer los ajustes correspondientes.
Llamado Católico Anual El Llamado Católico Anual es nuestra tradición
que conecta a miles de personas que necesitan nuestra ayuda cada día. Nuestros generosos donativos al Llamado ayudan a niños a encontrar seguridad y esperanza, ayudan a familias a salir adelante de situaciones difíciles, a los marginados encontrar fortaleza y reconstruir sus vidas con dignidad, a estudiantes con problemas económicos a permanecer a asistir a una escuela católica y a seminaristas a prepararse para el servicio sacerdotal en nuestras parroquias. Puede ser que nosotros no seamos trabajadores sociales o maestros, pero podemos poner recursos en las manos de los servicios católicos diocesanos y parroquiales que ayudan a los marginados a salir de su pobreza donando al Llamado Católico Anual. Por favor sean tan generosos como puedan. Cada donativo hace la diferencia.
DIVINE WISDOM The Lord’s message, through Moses, was to
“take no revenge and cherish no grudge . . . love your neighbor as yourself” (Leviticus 19:18). We might think, “Great in theory, but not always realistic!”
Then Jesus in today’s Gospel goes even further. Take a slap in the face and then turn the other cheek? Treat enemies the same as friends? Again, we’re tempted to think that those are nice ideals, but not very practical in the “real world.”
Paul echoes Jesus when he tells the Corinthians that what passes for human wisdom is absurdity to God. Divine wisdom casts sunshine on the good and the bad, showers rain on the honest and the dishonest—without distinction. We must examine our wisdom and common sense to see how they compare to the wisdom of God, and make adjustments accordingly .
Couples For Christ The Christian Life Program (CLP) is a series of
talks about the “Absolute Basic Truths of Christianity”, “The Authentic Christian Life”, and “Living a Spirit-Filled Christian Life”. Talks are followed by a guided discussion in relation to Christian Life.
