WHAT’S HAPPENING AT ST MARTIN’S THIS WEEK MONDAY He saved us through the bath of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit. -- Titus 3:5 MANIFESTING THE SPIRIT The Christmas season closes this Sunday with the Baptism of the Lord. This feast is a sister to last week's feast of the Epiphany. Each of them celebrates an "epiphany," or a manifestation of the Spirit of God in Jesus--first in his birth, and now at his baptism. The divine Spirit is manifested in all of the scriptures for this feast. Psalm 104 highlights the Spirit of God creating and renewing the earth, while the reading from Isaiah describes God restoring Israel. In Luke's account of the baptism of the Lord the Holy Spirit descends upon Jesus. And the letter to Titus reminds us that the Holy Spirit was "richly poured out" on us also, through the "bath of rebirth" (Titus 3:5, 6). Copyright (c) J. S. Paluch Co.

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION Merry Christmas! Share that cheerful greeting with some folks today. They may wonder if you have had any Elvis sightings lately, attended Star Trek conventions, or were Cleopatra in a previous lifetime. Despite the skeptics, today is solidly within the Christmas season. In fact, in some strands of the Christian tradition it represents the clearest manifestation of the mystery of the Incarnation. On Christmas Day, for example, the Gospel reading is the Prologue of John's Gospel, which reveals the glory of Christ shining through our humanity precisely in his baptism. At any rate, this is an ancient feast, celebrated first in Egypt sixteen centuries ago. More than most other ancient people, the Egyptians understood the life-giving properties of water. On this day, they drew water from the Nile, so central in the history of their people, and reserved it in honor. Many other places copied the custom, so that St. John Chrysostom wrote of people in Antioch gathering at midnight to collect flowing water into vessels they brought from home since "today there is a blessing on the water." At home for dinner tonight, decorate the table with beautiful bowls of water and white candles, toast one another with goblets of sparkling water, and light a Christmas candle in the window one last time. --Rev. James Field, Copyright (c) J. S. Paluch Co. 10 de Enero de 2016 El Bautismo del Señor ESPAÑOL/SPANISH Jubileo de la Misericordia ʻʻEsquina Centenaria" Nuestra atención en Enero está puesta en nuestra escuela parroquial “Catholic Academy of Sunnyvale”, un esfuerzo conjunto de las parroquias de San Martín y San Cipriano. La Escuela San Martín abrió sus puertas en 1953 en Central Avenue, mientras que nuestra Iglesia permanecía en nuestra primera dirección de 377 S. Sunnyvale Ave. Demuestre su apoyo a nuestra escuela parroquial. Necesitamos historiadores, escritores y organizadores….. Comparte tus talentos, ven a nuestra junta el 28 de Enero a las 6:30 pm! Lo hizo mediante el bautismo, que nos regenera y nos renueva, por la acción del Espíritu Santo. -- Tito 3:5 MANIFESTANDO AL ESPÍRITU El tiempo de Navidad finaliza este domingo con el Bautismo del Señor. Esta fiesta es hermana de la fiesta de la semana pasada, la Epifanía. Cada una ellas celebra una "epifanía", o manifestación del Espíritu de Dios en Jesús --primero en su nacimiento y ahora en su bautismo. El Espíritu Divino se manifiesta en todas las lecturas bíblicas de la fiesta. El Salmo 104 destaca al Espíritu de Dios que crea y renueva la tierra, mientras que la lectura de Isaías describe a Dios restaurando a Israel. En el relato de Lucas del bautismo del Señor el Espíritu Santo desciende sobre Jesús. Y la carta a Tito nos recuerda que el Espíritu Santo también "derramó con abundancia" sobre nosotros, el "baño de regeneración" (Tito 3:5, 6). Copyright (c) J. S. Paluch Co.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE La costumbre del bautismo infantil debe ser mucho más que un acto social o una tradición cultural, donde el ropón y los regalos son más importantes que la doctrina cristiana, y los padrinos se escogen no por su buen ejemplo sino por su cuenta bancaria. Según los Hechos de los Apóstoles, familias enteras se bautizaban cuando el padre de familia decidía hacerse cristiano. Esta práctica de bautizar, no solo al nuevo creyente sino también a su mujer y a sus hijos, poco a poco, quedó solo en bautizar los niños del original creyente. El mundo en aquel tiempo estaba basado sobre la familia así como muchas culturas latinas de hoy. El bautizo infantil nació en la Iglesia primitiva y al pasar de los siglos llegó a transformarse en un rito religioso muy importante en la catequesis del nuevo cristiano. El niño viste de ropita blanca que recuerda la presencia de Cristo en su alma, se le regala una vela que lo invita a brillar con la luz de Cristo y se le da una madrina o un padrino que le enseñará a vivir en Cristo. --Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM, Copyright (c) J.

DÂNG CÚNG LẦN THỨ HAI * Jan. 17: Giúp hội St. Vincent de Paul Bài giảng lễ Hiển Linh của Đức Thánh Cha Phanxicô “… Các đạo sĩ đến từ Phương Đông là những người được ngôn sứ Isaia nhắc đến trong bài đọc thứ I (x. 60: 1-6): một cuộc lên đường không bị gián đoạn; trong mọi thời đại luôn nghe thấy sứ điệp của ánh sao và nhận ra Hài Nhi, Đấng mặc khải sự dịu dàng của Thiên Chúa. Những nhà đạo sĩ thời đại luôn được ánh sao soi sáng và họ tìm thấy con đường để đi vào sự hiện diện của Ngài. Theo truyền thống, những nhà đạo sĩ là các nhà hiền triết, quan sát tinh tú trên trời, trong bối cảnh văn hóa và tôn giáo để thấy nơi vì sao mang ý nghĩa và sức mạnh trên nhân loại. Những nhà đạo sĩ đại diện cho những người đàn ông và phụ nữ là những người đi tìm kiếm Thiên Chúa trong các tôn giáo và các nền triết học trên thế giới. Đó là một cuộc tìm kiếm bất tận. Những nhà đạo sĩ chỉ ra con đường hành trình trong suốt cuộc đời của chúng ta. Họ tìm ánh sáng sự thật. Như bài thánh ca phụng vụ Hiển Linh “Lumen requirunt Lumine” nói về kinh nghiệm của họ nhờ bước theo ánh sáng, họ nhận thấy Ánh Sáng. Họ đặt đời mình trong việc tìm kiếm Thiên Chúa. Nhìn thấy dấu hiệu của những vì sao, họ nắm bắt sự điệp của nó và thực hiện một cuộc hành trình dài. Đó chính là Chúa Thánh Thʵ n đã kêu gọi họ và thúc đẩy họ làm cuộc lên đường. Trên hành trình này, họ cũng đã có cu˥˥˧c g˅p g˥˦ cá nhân với Thiên Chúa thật… Chúng ta có thể tự hỏi: Mʵ u nhi˞ m mà Thiên Chúa ʷn dʳ u là gì? Tôi có thể tìm thấy Ngài ở đâu? Tất cả vấn đề diễn ra xung quanh chúng ta: trong chiến tranh, nạn bóc lột trẻ em, tra tấn, buôn bán vũ khí, buôn người … Trong tất cả những thực tế, nơi những anh chị em đang chịu đựng những cảnh huống đau khổ. Ở đó ta gặp được Chúa Giêsu (x Mt 25: 40,45). Các hang đá chỉ cho chúng ta con đường t˥˩˨ hʭ c˥˧ a Thiên Chúa , vinh quang của Ngài giấu ẩn trong máng cỏ Bêlem, trên thập tự giá Đồi Sọ, trong mỗi anh chị em đau khổ xung quanh chúng ta…” January 10, 2016 The Baptism of the Lord A big thank you to all of the St. Martin parishioners who support Catholic Academy of Sunnyvale each month by coming to our restaurant fundraisers! 12th Annual WALK for LIFE WEST COAST Because Women Deserve Better than Abortion Saturday, January 23rd, 2016 Civic Center Plaza San Francisco Rally: 12:30 PM WalkforLifeWC.com 415-658-1793 info@WalkforLifeWC.com First is Jesús Emmanuel Acha Martinez, known everywhere throughout the Spanishspeaking world simply as Emmanuel. Emmanuel came on the music scene in Mexico in the late 1970’s. By the 1980’s he was arguably the country’s biggest star. Obianuju Ekeocha, founder and pr esident of Culture of Life Africa. Obianuju has advised almost 20 African bishops on women’s and life issues, has met with Pope Francis, and co-authored two declarations with African bishops promoting the gospel of life in Africa. David Daleiden, one of the young activists who are changing the face of the pro-life movement, David founded the Center for Medical Progress in 2013. In 2015 he shocked the conscience of America with his ongoing series of videos documenting Planned Parenthood’s trafficking in the body parts of aborted children. His exposé provoked members of congress and of state legislatures into ongoing attempts to revoke public funding for the nation’s largest abortionist. Alveda King, who will be intr oduced by Fr. Frank Pavone, will lead the opening prayer of the rally. San Francisco’s Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone will present Gianna Molla Award to Mother Agnes of the Sisters of Life. Come join us! ¡La leyenda de la Música Latina, EMMANUEL se unira a la caminata por la Vida de la Costa Oeste! ¡El 23 de enero del 2016 San Francisco será la sede de la 12ava Caminata Anual por la Vida de la Costa Oeste! La Caminata de este año estará acompañada por la leyenda de la música latinoamericana Emmanuel. El baladista mexicano pro-vida, que ha tenido más de 20 canciones de éxito desde la década de 1980, será uno de los oradores en el Caminata, que se celebrara a las 12:30 de la tarde en la Plaza del Centro Cívico de San Francisco. Emmanuel estará acompañado por el arzobispo Salvatore Cordileone y sus hermanos obispos de California, Uju Ekeocha, de la Cultura de la Vida de África, y el reverendo Clenard Childress, director de blackgenocide.org. Después de la reunión, a las 1:30 pm, comenzará la caminata, caminando por la calle Market. Se espera la participación de decenas de miles de gente pacífica pro-vida. Desde el 2005 la Caminata por la Vida de la Costa Oeste ha compartido el mensaje de esperanza, amor y vida en la ciudad más anti -vida del país. Tenemos el honor de compartir este mensaje ante a una oposición caustica. Este año, la conciencia de América se agitó por los videos horribles de representantes de Planned Parenthood, discutiendo y bromeando sobre la venta de partes del cuerpo de los cadáveres de bebés abortados. Que estas cosas inhumanas e inescrupulosas puedan suceder en nuestra sociedad fortalece nuestra determinación. No descansaremos, no vamos a desfallecer, hasta que la práctica inaceptable del aborto legal se erradique de nuestra sociedad.
