April, 2016 Dear SJOG Parishioners: Please be aware that on March 6th SJOG Out-reach hosted “Health Through Awareness”. At this event several health screenings were offered including: blood pressure screening, cardio vas-cular screening, health information for breast cancer, other information to promote health and wellness. That same weekend Dr. Perry Frankel, M.D. spoke at the end of all masses encouraging parishioners to avail them-selves of these screenings and expressing that they were free. Par ishioners / Clients who par ticipated were asked to give their health insurance information as a “just in case” measure and told that their insurance carri-er would not be billed. Subsequently we have been in-formed that many people’s health insurance has been billed. If you participated in this event and gave your health insurance information and your insurance was billed, please contact me, Ana Sullivan at Outreach; we need to know whose insurance was billed and if you wish, a letter can be written to reclaim the disbursement. Ana Sullivan SJOG, Outreach Coordinator.

Abril, 2016 Estimados Feligreses de SJOG: Tenga en cuenta que el 6 de Marzo, la Oficina de Outreach de SJOG auspició "Salud a través de la concientización". En este evento se ofrecieron varios exámenes de salud que incluyeron: Examen de la presión arterial, cardiovascular, información de salud para el cáncer de mama, otra información para promover la salud y el bienestar. Ese mismo fin de semana el Dr. Perry Frankel, M.D. habló al final de todas las misas alentan-do a los feligreses a hacer uso de estos exámenes y ex-presó que eran gratis. Se pidió a los feligreses / Clientes que participaron den su información de seguro de salud como una medida de "por si acaso", y que su compañía de seguros no sería facturada. Posteriormente se nos ha informado que el seguro de salud de muchas personas ha sido facturado. Si participó en este evento y dio su información de seguro de salud y su seguro le facturó, por favor llámeme, Ana Sullivan en Outreach; necesitamos saber a quienes el seguro les ha facturado y si usted, desea una carta por escrito para que reclame el desembolso. Ana Sullivan SJOG Coordinador de Outreach

YEAR OF MERCY PRAYER

Lord Jesus Christ,

you have taught us to be merciful like the heavenly Father

and have told us that whoever sees you sees Him. Let the Church be your visible face in the world.

Send your spirit so that the Jubilee of Mercy may be a year of grace from the Lord,

and your Church, with renewed enthusiasm, bring good news to the poor,

proclaim liberty to captives and the op-pressed, and restore sight to the blind.

We ask this through the intercession of Mary,

Mother of Mercy, you who live and reign with the Father

and the Holy Spirit forever and ever.

Amen.

Adapted from the prayer penned by Pope Francis.

ORACION DEL AÑO DE JUBILEO DE LA MISERICORDIA

Señor Jesucristo,

tú nos has enseñado a ser misericordiosos como el Padre del cielo,

y nos has dicho que quien te ve, lo ve también a Él.

Haz que, en el mundo, la Iglesia sea el rostro visible de Ti.

Manda tu Espíritu para que el Jubileo de la Misericordia

sea un año de gracia del Señor y tu Iglesia pueda, con renovado entusiasmo,

llevar la Buena Nueva a los pobres, proclamar la libertad a los prisioneros y

oprimidos y restituir la vista a los ciegos.

Te lo pedimos por la intercesión de María,

Madre de la Misericordia, a ti que vives y reinas con el Padre

y el Espíritu Santo por los siglos de los siglos.

Amén.

Adaptada de la oración escrita por el Papa Francisco.

Lectio Divina: is a form of prayer using Sacred Scripture. It is a four step process, using Scripture as its basis to get to know our Lord in a more profound way. It is a process that was developed by St. Benedict and can be used in individual prayer or in a group.

4 STEPS: READ, MEDITATE, PRAY, CONTEMPLATE

BEGIN WITH A PRAYER TO THE HOLY SPIRIT: Come Holy Spirit, illuminate my mind, open my heart so I can encounter in your Word Christ, the Way, the Truth, and the Life…..Help me follow today, the call of Christ in a new way, according to your word. And let me be for all in the world, one who is sent by the Lord, let me be a brother/sister, let me be a friend, let me be a disciple of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Amen.

STEP 1: READ: What does the Biblical Text Say? At the most basic level: What is going on in this Scriptural passage? You have to identify a WORD, PHRASE, IDEA that touches your heart….that the Lord places in your heart….. FIRST READING: read the text out loud slowly and intentionally. REFLECTION: take several minutes to reflect on the reading and allow the Holy Spirit to surface a WORD, A PHRASE, AN IDEA/CONCEPT that is central to the meaning of the text for you (What is the Biblical text saying?). INTERNALIZE: repeat the word or phrase either out loud or in your heart.

STEP 2: MEDITATE: What is Jesus saying to me personally through this Scripture Text? What does God want me to know or see through this Scripture Text. How does this text speak to my experience in life? SECOND READING: read the same passage again. MEDITATION: take several minutes to reflect on the question: What is Jesus saying to me personally through this Scripture Text?

STEP 3: PRAY: My Lord has spoken to me in the Scriptural Text: What do I want to say back to him in Prayer? THIRD READING: may want to re-read the same passage again. REFLECTION: Jesus has spoken to me personally in this Scriptural text. What do I want to say to my Lord in Prayer? PRAYER: say your prayer to our Lord either out loud or interiorly.

STEP 4: CONTEMPLATE / ACT: As a result of my prayer, what is Jesus calling me to DO (this week) as a result of this process? Finally, our prayer calls us to action ultimately to be more compassionate and faithful. CONTEMPLATE: on what our Lord is calling you to do as a result of this process.

Lectio Divina: es una forma de oración utilizando las Sagradas Escrituras. Se trata de un proceso de cuatro pasos, usando las Escrituras como base para conocer a nuestro Señor en una forma más profunda. Fue un proceso desarrollado por San Benedicto y se puede utilizar como oración individual o grupal.

4 PASOS: LEER, MEDITAR, ORAR, CONTEMPLAR

COMENZAR CON UNA ORACIÓN AL ESPÍRITU SANTO: Ven, Espíritu Santo, ilumina mi mente, abre mi corazón para que yo pueda encontrar en la Palabra a Cristo, el Camino, la Verdad y la Vida……. Ayúdame a seguir hoy, la llamada de Cristo de una manera nueva, conforme a tu palabra. Y lo digo por todos en el mundo, uno quien es enviado por el Señor, quiero ser un hermano/hermana, un amigo, ahora voy a ser un discípulo del Padre, del Hijo y del Espíritu Santo. Amén. PASO 1: LEER: ¿Qué dice el texto bíblico? En el nivel más básico: ¿Qué está pasando en este pasaje bíblico? Usted tiene que identificar una PALABRA, FRASE, IDEA que toca su corazón…..que el Señor pone en tu corazón….. PRIMERA LECTURA: lea el texto en voz alta lenta y deliberadamente. REFLEXIÓN: tome varios minutos para reflexionar sobre la lectura y permitir que el Espíritu Santo le revele UNA PALABRA, UNA FRASE, UNA IDEA/CONCEPTO que es el centro del significado del texto para usted (¿Qué le está diciendo el texto bíblico?). INTERNALIZAR: repetir la palabra o frase en voz alta o en su corazón. PASO 2: MEDITAR: ¿Qué me está diciendo personalmente Jesús a través del texto de la Escritura? ¿Qué es lo que Dios quiere que conozca o vea a través del texto de la Escritura? ¿Cómo este texto me habla a mi experiencia en la vida? SEGUNDA LECTURA: leer el mismo pasaje. MEDITACIÓN: tome varios minutos para reflexionar sobre la pregunta: ¿Qué me está diciendo personalmente Jesús a través de este texto de la Escritura? PASO 3: ORAR: Mi Señor me ha hablado en el texto Bíblico: ¿Qué es lo que le quiero decir a Dios en oración? TERCERA LECTURA: puede volver a leer el mismo pasaje. REFLEXIÓN: Jesús me ha hablado personalmente en este texto Bíblico. ¿Qué quiero decir a mi Señor en oración? ORACIÓN: diga su oración a Señor ya sea en voz alta o interiormente. PASO 4: CONTEMPLAR / ACTUAR: Como resultado de mi oración, ¿A qué Jesús me está llamando HACER (esta semana) como resultado de este proceso? Por último, nuestra oración nos invita a la acción, en definitiva, a ser más compasivo y fiel. CONTEMPLAR: en lo que nuestro Señor está llamándome hacer como resultado de este proceso.
