In our Gospel this Sunday, John the Evangelist tells the narrative of the miracle of water turned into wine. In that story, there is this minute detail that says the headwaiter was deprived to see Jesus turn water to wine. The servers who drew the water saw and knew. What an awesome rare privilege! John, in a very sharp contrast, showed what eyes see Christ’s miracles. The servers saw the miracle. The headwaiter did not. Wait. Why would a headwaiter miss that chance when he was supposed to be privileged to be near Jesus? Well, that sounds presumptuous. No one is privileged to be near Jesus. On the contrary, anyone is invited to come close and see. Come and see (Jn 1:39). Jesus invites anyone to have the chance to be see revealed Truth. Are they, who come to see, the scholars of the law? No. They were ordinary people. They were shepherds, fishermen, tax collectors, Samaritans, women, sinners. They were those who chose to be opened. Opening our eyes, ears, mind and heart can be challenging. We usually believe in our own truths. And when we believe in our own truths, we are closed to only believe in them. Thus we are made to believe in fundamentalism and ideologies. o0o Are we privileged to see miracles? Yes. On a daily basis. But it is not our eyes that see one; it is the eyes of our faith that sees miracles. Recently the news circulated about a possible Eucharistic miracle in the Diocese of Salt Lake City. The story is told that a priest mistakenly gave a child, who had not yet made his First Communion, the Eucharist. The mother prudently returned the Eucharist to the priest. The priest religiously did his part: he placed the Eucharist in a glass of water. After three days, the Eucharist bled. Now the event is being verified of its veracity. Why don’t we see this here in our diocese? I do not know. But do we actually need to see one like that? I don’t think so. We are already privileged to see the real presence of God every day at Mass. The Eucharist is enough to see and taste and put to heart Jesus Christ. The Eucharist is Jesus Christ. o0o Adore the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist. Believe that the Eucharist makes Christ present. It is the Body and Blood of Christ. Our chapel offers 24-hour Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament. I am inviting you to come to adore Christ in the Blessed Sacrament. Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament helps our spiritual growth. Individuals or groups are encouraged to take an hour for Thursday adoration and also you are invited to come anytime. If you wish to come for adoration other than Thursday, call the office to have access to the chapel (541-926-1449). ¿Como seria estar cerca de Jesús y ver los milagros que hace? En nuestro Evangelio de este domingo, Juan el Evangelista cuenta La narración del milagro del agua convertida en vino. En esta historia, hay ese detalle que dice que el jefe de camareros fue privado de ver a Jesús convertir el agua en vino. Los servidores que sacaban el agua vieron y se dieron cuenta. ¡Qué increíble y raro privilegio! Juan, en un contraste muy fuerte, nos muestra los ojos de los que vieron los milagros de Cristo. Los servidores vieron el milagro. El jefe de camareros no lo vio. Espera. ¿Por qué sería que el jefe de camareros perdido esa oportunidad cuando se suponía que era el privilegiado de estar cerca de Jesús? Bueno, eso suena presuntuoso. Nadie tiene el privilegio de estar cerca de Jesús. Por el contrario, a cualquiera se le invita a acercarse y ver. Ven a ver (Jn 1:39). Jesús invita a cualquiera a tener la oportunidad de ver la Verdad revelada. ¿Los, que vienen a ver, son los maestros de la ley? No. Ellos eran personas comunes. Eran pastores, pescadores, recaudadores de impuestos, samaritanos, mujeres, los pecadores. Ellos eran los que eligieron a ser y estar abiertos. (continua en la pagina próxima) Abrir los ojos, los oídos, la mente y el corazón puede ser un reto. Por lo general, creemos en nuestras propias verdades. Y cuando creemos en nuestras propias verdades, estamos cerrados a creer sólo en ellos. Así se nos hace creer en el fundamentalismo y las ideologías. o0o ¿ Somos privilegiados de ver los milagros? Sí. Diariamente. Pero nuestros ojos ven uno; es acaso los ojos de nuestra fe que ve milagros. Recientemente, la noticia circuló sobre un posible milagro eucarístico en la Diócesis de Salt Lake City. La historia cuenta que un sacerdote por error dio a un niño, que todavía no había hecho su Primera Comunión, la Eucaristía. La madre devolvió prudentemente la Ostia al sacerdote. El sacerdote hizo religiosamente su parte: él puso la Ostia en un vaso de agua. Después de tres días, la Ostia sangró. Ahora están verificando el caso de su veracidad. ¿Porqué no vemos esto aquí en nuestra Diócesis? No lo sé. Pero realmente necesitamos ver algo como eso? No lo creo. Ya tenemos el privilegio de ver la presencia real de Dios cada día en la Misa. La Eucaristía es suficiente para ver y probar y poner el corazón en Jesucristo. La Eucaristía es Jesucristo. o0o Adore la presencia real de Cristo en la Eucaristía. Creer que la Eucaristía hace presente a Cristo. Es el Cuerpo y la Sangre de Cristo. Nuestra capilla ofrece Adoración las 24 horas al Santísimo Sacramento. Te invito a venir a adorar a Cristo en el Santísimo Sacramento. La Adoración del Santísimo Sacramento ayuda a nuestro crecimiento espiritual. Se anima a los individuos o grupos a tomar una hora para la adoración los Jueves y también están invitados a venir en cualquier momento. Si desea venir a la adoración que no sea Jueves, llame a la oficina para tener acceso a la capilla (541-926-1449). Today, we will take up the Collection for the Catholic Communication Campaign (CCC). This collection communicates the Gospel through Catholic social media activities and enriches our faith through podcasts, television, radio, and print media. Please be generous in this week’s collection and support this important work. Remember, half of your donation stays in our Archdiocese to support local communication needs. The CCC is how we share our experience of faith, worship, and witness to the world. Hoy realizaremos la Colecta para la Campaña Católica de la Comunicación (CCC). Esta colecta comunica el Evangelio a través de actividades en los medios sociales católicos y enriquece nuestra fe a través de los podcasts, la televisión, la radio y la prensa escrita. Por favor, sean generosos en la colecta de esta semana y den su apoyo a esta importante labor. Recuerden que la mitad de sus donaciones permanece en nuestra (arqui) diócesispara financiar las necesidades locales en el campo de la comunicación. A través de la CCC es como compartimos nuestra experiencia de fe, veneración y testimonio. Prayer Corner Please keep all those who are in the military, or are ill or suffering in your prayers.

For the repose of the souls of all the faithful departed: Lowell Barrett, Mel DeWilde, Brennan Blake 17 de enero de 2016 January 17, 2016 Second Sunday in Ordinary Time SURPRISES Life is full of surprises, some pleasant, some not. The scriptures are filled with stories of God’s surprises cropping up when they are least expected: younger children obtaining the inheritance; the lowliest being seated highest up; an itinerant preacher, killed like a criminal, exalted to eternal, heavenly glory. Anybody who has planned a wedding or similar event knows that they are filled with opportunities for surprises. For the bridegroom in today’s Gospel story, who has no direct contact with Jesus, the pleasant surprise came because somebody else paid attention and had faith in Jesus. We may think that the point of today’s familiar story of the wedding at Cana is that when we have faith in Jesus, our lives will be pleasantly changed. A Christian, however, needs to have a broader perspective and realize that to have faith in Christ means that somebody’s life—not necessarily our own—will be surprised for the better. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co. Mary, whom Catholic tradition names “Mother of Mercy,” at Cana intercedes with her Son to show mercy toward the bridal couple: “Son, they have no wine.” But he does more! Jesus’ transformation of water into wine is a “sign” (John’s term for “miracle”) that God’s marriage with the whole human race has begun in Jesus’ person and ministry, a marriage that will be consummated on the cross: “It is finished”—we are saved! But before Jesus acts, Mary instructs the servers to prepare the way for Jesus’ miracle of mercy: “Do whatever he tells you.” During this Jubilee Year of Mercy, Mother Church, like Mother Mary, instructs us to share the Spirit’s manifold gifts—some of which Paul lists in today’s second reading—in generous service to the human family. Thus we prepare the way for Jesus’ new miracles of mercy, transforming life’s sometimes stagnant water into the refreshing wine of God’s mercy. Segundo Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario - SORPRESAS Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co. La vida está llena de sorpresas, algunas agradables, otras no. La Sagrada Escritura está llena de relatos sobre las sorpresas de Dios que surgen donde menos se esperan: los hijos más jóvenes reciben la herencia, a los más humildes se les dan los sitios de honor; un predicador itinerante, condenado a morir como un criminal, es exaltado hacia la gloria celestial eterna. Cualquiera que haya planificado una boda o celebración similar sabe que está llena de oportunidades para que surjan sorpresas. Para el novio (el cual, en el relato bíblico, no tiene contacto directo con Jesús) la agradable sorpresa vino porque otra persona había prestado atención y tenía fe en Jesús. A lo mejor pensamos que la lección de la conocida historia de las bodas de Caná es que cuando tenemos fe en Jesús, nuestra vida cambiará positivamente. Sin embargo, un cristiano necesita tener una perspectiva más amplia, y darse cuenta que tener fe en Cristo implica que la vida de alguien –sea la tuya, sea la de otra persona– va a mejorarse sorpresivamente. Por la boda de Cana, la tradición católica llama a María “Madre de la Misericordia”, pues ella intercede ante su Hijo para mostrar misericordia a los novios: “Hijo, no les queda vino”. ¡Jesús hace algo más! Para Jesús esa transformación que hace del agua en vino es un “signo” (la palabra que usa Juan es “milagro”) que es el matrimonio de Dios con toda la humanidad que empezó en la persona de Jesús y su ministerio y que será consumado en la Cruz: “todo está cumplido”, ¡somos salvados! Pero antes que Jesús haga algo, María dijo a los que estaban sirviendo preparar el camino para el milagro de la misericordia de Jesús: “Hagan lo que él les diga”. Durante este Año Jubilar de la Misericordia, la “Madre Iglesia”, como la Madre María, nos dice que compartamos los dones del Espíritu, algunos de los cuales Pablo enlista en la segunda lectura de hoy, en un servicio generoso a la familia y así preparar el camino para los nuevos milagros de misericordia de Jesús, transformando la vida; algunas veces el agua estancada en un vino refrescante de la misericordia de Dios.

PLEASE NOTE: There were a few snafu’s that have changed the location of the Holy Family statue. It was delayed a week, then went to the home of Jack & Dorothy Gall. Last week it was with Dan, Lisa, Richard & William Freeman. This week Jim, Peggy & Ian McDowell will host the statue at their home. Our Catechism defines Mercy as: Charitable actions by which we come to the aid of our neighbor in his or her spiritual and bodily necessities. In keeping with his Holiness's request, each week we will be presenting one family or individual with a statue of the Holy Family. This can be put on display somewhere in their home as a reminder of the Pontiff's desire for all of us to pray for and show mercy and kindness toward all people, especially to those who are less fortunate. After one week the statue will be passed on to another family or individual. This ritual will continue throughout the year. Thank you for your continued support and participation from: The Knights of Columbus and The Catholic Daughters of St. Mary's Eucharistic Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament “May Thy kingdom come!

May He be known and loved by those who neither know nor love Him! May everyone complete in himself the work of the Incarnation and of the redemption!” (Saint Peter Julian Eymard) Please join us for Eucharistic Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament. Adoration is available in the chapel 24 hours every day. For adoration outside of the 24-hour regular Thursday schedule, call the office for instructions and to enlist. Everyone is welcome.
