A Message from our Parish Pastoral Council

2/First Sunday of Lent (Continued on page 3)

Second Sunday of Lent w March 8th, 2020Gen 12:1-4a w 2 Timothy 1:8b-10 w Matthew 17:1-9

Dear fellow Parishioners,During our annual all-day meeting this January, we took

some time to pray about and discuss our Parish Mission State-ment. We believe that it still serves to inspire and energize our parish. We suggested just one minor change: to capitalize all of the word ‘ALL’. It now reads:

As a Jesuit parish community, animated by the spirit of St. Ignatius, we welcome ALL to share in the joy of the Gospel and to come to "know, love and serve" God and one another.

We then turned to an exercise to consider what we think is most valued by our parish community. Five values emerged.

●Nourishing Liturgy – We aspire to provide forms of worship, through word, music and sacraments, that feed the heart, mind, body, and soul.

●Inclusive Community – We strive to build a community of faith that is welcoming to ALL.

●Ignatian Spirituality – As a Jesuit Catholic parish, we are guided by the prac-tices of the Society of Jesus, in which we seek “God in all things.”

●Education – We facilitate the formation of our people’s faith through their lifespan.

●Social Justice – We act in the world as people with and for others by promoting human dignity, seeking to right injustices, and protecting our shared home.

Based on our parish’s mission statement and these values, we, as a parishioner-driven parish, want to invite you to enter, during this Lenten Season, into a prayerful dis-cernment to help envision our future. Such input is critical as we consider how we prioritize our precious energy and resources.

As part of this prayerful discernment, we would like to en-vision together with you how we might better integrate the four Jesuit Universal Apostolic Preferences into the life of our Parish. These are: Discernment and the Spiritual Exercises; Walking with the Excluded; Journeying with Youth; Caring for Our Common Home. Some questions we would like you to consider are:

•How might we integrate our mission to be an inclusive community with this preference to walk with the excluded? •How might we better enliven our youth’s participation in the parish? •How might we be better stewards of our common home beginning with our parish home? •How might we effectively incorporate Discernment and the Spiritual Exercises into decisions on other matters of importance to all of us as members of this wonderful, faith-filled community of believers?

Estimados Compañeros Feligreses,Durante nuestra reunión anual de todo el día en enero, nos

tomamos un tiempo para orar y discutir nuestra Declaración de Misión Parroquial. Creemos que esta todavía sirve para inspirar y energizar a nuestra parroquia. Sugerimos solo un pequeño cambio. Ese fue poner en mayúsculas la palabra 'TO-DOS'. Ahora dice:

Como comunidad parroquial jesuita, animada por el es-píritu de San Ignacio, damos la bienvenida a TODOS para compartir la alegría del Evangelio y llegar a "conocer, amar y servir" a Dios y a los demás.

Luego recurrimos a un ejercicio para considerar lo que cree-mos que es más valioso para nuestra comunidad parroquial. Surgieron cinco valores.

•La Liturgia Nutritiva – Aspiramos a proporcionar formas de adoración a través de la palabra, la música y los sacramentos, de manera de alimentar el corazón, la men-te, el cuerpo y el alma.

•La Comunidad Inclusiva – Nos es-forzamos por construir una comunidad de fe que llegue a TODOS.

•La Espiritualidad ignaciana – Como parroquia jesuita católica, nos guiamos por las prácticas de la Compañía de Jesús, en las que buscamos a "Dios en todas las cosas."

•La Educación – Facilitamos la for-mación de la fe de nuestra gente a lo largo de su vida.

•La Justicia Social – Actuamos en el mundo como personas con y para los demás, promoviendo la dignidad humana,

tratando de enderezar las injusticias y protegiendo nuestro ho-gar compartido.

Basándonos en la declaración de misión de nuestra parro-quia y en estos valores, nosotros, como parroquia impulsada por sus feligreses, queremos invitarlos a entrar, durante este tiempo cuaresmal, en un discernimiento orante para ayudar a vislumbrar nuestro futuro. Este tipo de aporte es fundamental a medida que consideramos cómo priorizamos nuestra valiosa energía y recursos.

Como parte de este discernimiento orante, nos gustaría imaginar junto con ustedes cómo podríamos integrar mejor las cuatro Preferencias Apostólicas Universales Jesuitas en la vida de nuestra Parroquia. Ellas son: Discernimiento y los Ejerci-cios Espirituales; Caminar con los excluidos; Viajar con la ju-ventud; Cuidar nuestro hogar común. Algunas preguntas que nos gustaría que considerara son:

•¿Cómo podríamos integrar nuestra misión de ser una comunidad in

NOTICE ABOUT RECEIVING HOLY COMMUNION:

To decrease the spread of germs during this cold and flu sea-son, we are suspending reception of the Cup and encourage you to refrain from receiving on the tongue. During the Sign of Peace please feel free to bow instead of shake hands.

We look forward to hearing your thoughts. As a first step, we invite you by the end of this month to write to us at the Parish office, email us at pastoralcouncil@bc.edu or simply speak to one of us after or before Mass or even arrange for us to have a more extensive conversation with you. We look forward to hearing from you as we continue to discern our way forward.

Migration Facts:•Cities with higher shares of migrants are often voted as the most desirable places to be. •Had immigration to the United Kingdom and Germany ceased in 1990, both countries’ real GDP in 2014 would have been lower by $227.44 billion and $201.45 billion respectively.•While immigrants represented only 13% of the population in the US, they comprise nearly 30% of all entrepreneurs.

World Economic Forum, December 18th, 2019For Reflection:

"The Council of the Synod wishes to recall that the Church, while deploring the reasons for such a massive movement of people, is called to offer comfort, consolation and welcome to all those who are suffering in one way or another. She identi-fies with the poor, the little and the foreigner, considering part of her prophetic mission the commitment to raise her voice

against injustice, exploitation and suffering."15th Ordinary Council of the General Secretariat of the

Synod of Bishops, Rome, February 15, 2020

CRS Rice Bowl - Our Journey BeginsMaria Ana's family’s home in Honduras was destroyed in a recent accident. Her family is living in a temporary space—a small wooden hut—until they can get it fixed. Everyone sleeps on the floor and during the rainy season the roof often leaks. Maria Ana works hard in school—and CRS provides school lunches to ensure she can focus on her studies and not on her hunger.

Trinh shows her family love by doing chores around the house and helps her little sister, Trang, with schoolwork. Often, Trinh will ride her bike to get medicine for her parents when they are sick. Trinh’s house is near a river and when storms pass through, the home often fills with water. In Vietnam, CRS is working with students like Trinh, helping them to learn ways to protect their home, food and family from destructive storms.

In Kenya, Yvone's family has a hut where the family eats and sleeps, a stable for the animals and a separate kitchen hut. Each morning she washes dishes, sweeps the house, prepares lunch for the younger children and washes their school uniforms. Yvone’s family life has changed for the better thanks to a CRS program that teaches families about healthy food. During the 40 days of Lent, as you get to know Maria Ana, Trinh and Yvone,

remember them in your daily experience of prayers, fasting and almsgiving.
