A SUNDAY FOR REJOICING Today's Gospel story of the prodigal on is a favorite of many. We can iden tify with all the major figures and their crisscross of emotions. The father's initial grief over his young son's ava rice is turned to relief at his return. The son's grief over his loss of for tune, family, and friends is turned to delirious joy at the sight of his father. We understand the eldest son's bewil-derment over his father's generosity. For the older son, virtue seems not to be its own reward. For all his honorable toil and loyalty, there seems to be no celebration. The father, however, is prodigal in his forgiveness and mercy. He expects the same gen-erosity from his older son. He wants all to rejoice when the lost one is found. This is a Sunday for rejoicing. It's time to pause, consider, and encourage one another. We are the prodigal children heading home. We are the elder siblings waiting with the eager Father, who scans the horizon. In Christ Jesus we are reconciled to the Father and one another. In his death and resurrection we have passed over. We are a new creation. In this we rejoice.

Lord Jesus Christ, Redeemer of the world, you have shouldered the burden of our weakness and borne our sufferings in your own pas-sion and death. Hear this prayer for our sick brothers and sister whom you have redeemed. Strengthen their hope of salvation and sustain them in body and soul, for you live and reign for ever and ever. Amen.

God, our shelter and our strength, you listen in love to the cry of your people: hear the prayers we offer for our departed brothers and sisters. Cleanse them of their sins and grant them the full-ness of redemption. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION One of the first steps to a Catholic wedding takes place in the parish rectory, as the newly engaged come forward to "set a date." We owe this scenario to reforms made by the emperor Charlemagne late in the eighth century. He required that nobles and commoners alike have public weddings, and also required that marrying couples be examined for factors that would block a marriage, such as previous marriages or close kinship. The pope was more conservative, however, and resisted the emperor's cre-ativity. It was enough for the pope that the couples exchange consent. That tradition is passed on to this day, to some couples' surprise. In 866, Pope Nicholas ruled that a marriage was legal and bind-ing even without a liturgy or public celebration. After that, it was the consent of the couple, not the blessing of parents or priest, that made a marriage "count." If consent was lacking, such as through abduction or fear, then the marriage could not "take." Charlemagne got a great deal done, but he was a political flash in the pan, and the empire had virtually collapsed by the year 1000. Europe broke into a checkerboard of princedoms and languages, and at last all marriages came under the church, the glue holding the known world together. --Rev. James Field

REDDITIO SYMBOLI “Fight the good fight of faith

and win the eternal life to which you were called and for which you made your solemn profession of faith before many witnesses.” 1 Timothy 6:12.

The Second English Neocatechumenal Community of St. Barbara Parish invites you to a Solemn Profession of Faith during this Lent. The Profession of Faith is one of the most ancient tradi-tions of the Church and is meant also to give hope to those who are listening. In this opportune moment of the Extraordinary Jubi-lee of Mercy, Pope Francis reminds us that, “The Church is com-missioned to announce the mercy of God, the beating heart of the Gospel...” (Misericordiae Vultus, 12). Come and listen to the experience of these men and women who are witnesses to the mercy of God in their lives. Professions of Faith will be given during Evening Prayer at 8:00 p.m. in the church on Tuesdays, February 23, March 1, March 8 and on Thursday, March 10. The Palm of Victory will be given to those who have made their Pro-fession on Palm Sunday Vigil, March 19 at 8:30 p.m. Everyone is welcome!

Jubilee Year of Mercy—Fourth Sunday of Lent

On Laetare Sunday, we rejoice as Luke's Jesus proclaims that God is boundlessly merciful. The parable's prodigal son returns home, not authentically repentant but desper-ate, having squandered on prostitutes (or so his older brother claims) the inheritance wrongly demanded while his father still lived. This selfish son is only spared ritual "shaming" when the father "shames" himself, running to embrace him, interrupting his prepared "act of contrition." By doing so he challenges confessors, and all of us, to be signs, says Pope Francis, "of the primacy of mercy always, everywhere, and in every situation, no matter what." Avoid the harshness of the elder son, Francis warns, "who stands outside, incapable of rejoicing," his judgment "severe, un-just, and meaningless in light of the father's boundless mer-cy" (Misericordiae Vultus, 17). If John's Gospel is pro-claimed, the "religiously observant" people there likewise serve to warn against harshly judging others, for the physi-cal blindness of the man they expel from the synagogue is healed, while their own blindness of heart remains.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE Cuaresma es tiempo de reconciliación por medio del perdón. En este espíritu, el Papa san Juan Pablo II pidió perdón por pecados cometidos por la Iglesia. Uno de estos pecados es la manera como América fue cristianizada. La relación del latino con la religión católica ha sido entre buenas intenciones y antagonismos. Gracias a Dios, ¡somos cristianos! Lamentablemente, nuestro bautizo, en la mayor parte de los casos, fue en agua bendita y sangre indígena a la vez, ya que América fue evangelizada con cruz y espada. Los pobres misioneros que con fatiga, predicaron en nuestras tierras venían acompañados por hombres poderosos en busca de riquezas. El filósofo romano-español Séneca (siglo I) afirmaba: "la religión es algo que para la persona común es verdad, para el sabio es falso y para el poderoso es útil". A su vez, el romano-judío Pablo de Tarso declara que en Cristo, Dios ha revelado que la persona común y necia derribará la falsedad de los sabios (1 Cor 1:18-31). El latino creyente reconoce que su fe nació del dolor de la con-quista y no niega los abusos clericales, pero confía en el Evan-gelio reconciliador. --Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM

UN DOMINGO PARA ALEGRARSE

Pocas parábolas del Evangelio son tan queridas por el pueblo cristiano como la del hijo pródigo. Nos podemos identificar con todos sus personajes, y con las emociones que se entrecruzan entre ellos. El dolor del padre por la avaricia y desconsideración de su hijo se convierte en alegría al verlo regresar. El dolor del hijo por haber perdido todo lo que tenía -dinero, familia, amigos- se convierte en alegría delirante al ver como su padre lo recibe. Pero también comprendemos el desconcierto del hijo mayor ante la generosidad de su padre. Para el hijo mayor, la virtud no es su propia recompensa. Ha trabajado duro, y ha sido un hijo leal, pero eso no se celebra con fiestas ni banquetes. Pero su padre es un padre pródigo, y prodiga su perdón y su misericordia. Y es-pera que su hijo mayor tenga esa misma generosidad. Quiere que todos se regocijen porque el que estaba perdido ha sido hal-lado. Este es un domingo para alegrarse. Es día de hacer una pausa, y de considerarnos y alentarnos unos a otros. Porque todos somos hijos pródigos, en el camino de regreso al hogar de nuestro pa-dre. Y debemos también ser hermanos mayores, pero hermanos mayores que esperan junto con el padre ansioso, mientras vislumbra el horizonte. En Cristo Jesús nos vemos reconcili-ados, con Dios Padre, y con nuestros hermanos. En su Muerte y Resurrección hemos pasado de la muerte a la vida. Somos una nueva creación. Y esto nos llena de alegría.
