9:00AM Mass on Wednesday, February 12th cel-ebrating our patron
saint, Saint Eulalia.
Volunteers are needed to bring their favorite foods. If yours is

favorite dish will be welcome!
You will find an RSVP on page four of this bulletin which you

office. Questions? Call Louise Co-cuzzo at ext. 29, or Mary Deyst

FEBRUARY 09 ~ FIFTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
Winter’s darkness still enfolds us and so the theme of light and
darkness in today’s readings is very apropos for us to ponder. In
the first reading, Isaiah gives us an antidote, reminding us that
performing works of mercy can bring light into the darkness. In the
Gospel, “Jesus said to his disciples… ‘You are the light of the
world…. your light must shine before others, that they may see your
good deeds and glorify your heavenly Father.’" Are your words and
actions pointing people to Jesus? If they are not, what will you do
to be a light in the darkness this week?
LENTEN PREVIEW
If you are a homeowner, you know that it is essential from time
to time to inspect the foundation of the house. It is the same with
our faith. Pope Benedict had a deep desire that all of us would
come to appreci-ate the joy and beauty of our Catholic faith.
On the Monday evenings of Lent from 7:00PM to 8:15PM, Father
John will offer a series of presentations on the foundations, or
basics, of Christian Catholic faith. These presentations will help
you to deepen your understanding and love of the faith. They are
also geared for any person aged 18 to 100 years who has not yet
been confirmed and would like to receive the Sacra-ment of
Confirmation this Spring. Also invited are any persons who would
like to know more about our faith and our Catholic Church.
SCRIPTURE FOR FEBRUARY 09
First Reading Isaiah 58:7–10 (73A) Isaiah prophe-sied: Share
bread with the hungry. Shelter the home-less. Clothe the naked. Do
not turn away from your own. “Then your light shall break forth
like the dawn.” Responsorial Psalm 112:4–5, 6–7, 8–9 The just man
is a light in darkness to the upright. Second Reading 1 Corinthians
2:1–5 Paul’s teaching did not come from himself but from the
convincing power of the Spirit. So the faith he passed on rests
“not on human wisdom but on the power of God.” Gospel Acclamation
John 8:12 I am the light of the world, says the Lord; whoever
follows me will have the light of life.

the earth” and “the light of the world.” He cautioned them not to

glorify your heavenly Father.” before others…and glorify your
heavenly Father.”

Cunningham OFS
THE UNBROKEN WORD……………………………………….BY MICHAEL CUNNINGHAM
Do we ever consider the difference between wants and desires?
The words seem to flow from the tongue as
if they were meant to be always said together, like “bread and
butter”. In the same way that greed seems to
be a bottomless pit, never to be satisfied, the same may apply
to wants and desires.
However, we often see wants and desires as something better, not
as an expression of greed. Greed spells
out its motivation clearly in the word itself, whereas wants and
desires are a little more subtle in their inflec-
tion. This inflection is where we may examine the words more
carefully. What is the intention behind these
words? Where are we heading with them?
For me, desire seems to be rooted in a willingness to want
something or someone but with serious intent. In
theological terms, we often associate desire with love, and for
the purposes of this reflection, I will use that
perception. So to desire something is to want it with somewhat
of a loving heart. However, want is slightly
different as it adds the possessive element. I don’t just desire
your presence, I want to own it!
The point of examining these words is to examine our intention
in making requests of God, or of others. If
we are doing it for the “glory of God,” then our desire is
probably of a good heart, grace may flow from the
activity. On the other hand, if our only intention is to possess
another item, control another person, add to
our list of accomplishments, then the want/desire is coming from
another place.
To discern our motive or intention, a simple ingredient can be
added to the process. Include God in the con-
versation about your needs and wants, after doing this a few
times, it will become very obvious whose
“will” is being followed by your wants and desires.
Take a shot at this experiment this week. Take stock of your
wants and desires, and see where your real in-
tentions lie.
Wants and Desires
Yes, here comes the compulsion again. Yes, here comes the
compulsion again.
I am sure a new car will make me happier,I am sure a new car
will make me happier,
After all the old one is … well … old. After all the old one is
… well … old.
If only I would shed the wants,If only I would shed the
wants,
Which seem to pop up again like whack a mole,Which seem to pop
up again like whack a mole,
As soon as my shiny new want is delivered. As soon as my shiny
new want is delivered.
