LOVE OF ENEMY How can we love our enemies, turn the other cheek, or give
people the shirt off our back? And why should we? How far
will that get us? That is what Jesus said will get us far indeed.
We should treat enemies with the very kindness and mercy of
God, the way David and Abishai treated their enemy Saul,
the Lord’s anointed. We should refrain from judging them.
We should stop condemning them. We should forgive them.
We should give to them a generous measure. We should do
good to them. We should love them. James A. Wilde, PhD ©2000, OCP
WHAT IS THE LITURGY OF THE WORD? The main part of the Liturgy of the Word is made up of the readings from Sacred Scripture together with the chants occurring
between them. As for the Homily, the Profession of Faith, and the Universal Prayer, they develop and conclude it. For in the
readings, as explained by the Homily, God speaks to his people, opening up to them the mystery of redemption and salvation,
and offering spiritual nourishment; and Christ himself is present through his word in the midst of the faithful. By silence and
by singing, the people make this divine word their own, and affirm their adherence to it by means of the Profession of Faith;
finally, having been nourished by the Divine Word, the people pour out their petitions by means
of the Universal Prayer for the needs of the whole church and for the salvation of the whole
world.
Why do we have silence between the readings and after the homily?
The Liturgy of the Word is to be celebrated in such a way as to favor meditation, and so any kind
of haste such as hinders recollection is clearly to be avoided. In the course of it, brief periods of
silence are also appropriate, accommodated to the assembled congregation; by means of these,
under the action of the Holy Spirit, the Word of God may be grasped by the heart and a response
through prayer may be prepared. It may be appropriate to observe such periods of silence, for
example, before the Liturgy of the Word itself begins, after the First and Second Reading, and
lastly at the conclusion of the Homily. The General Instruction of the Roman Missal (GIRM)
"Give and gifts will be given to you; a good measure, packed together, shaken
down, and overflowing, will be poured into your lap. For the measure with
which you measure will in return be measured out to you." - Lk 6:38
"But rather, love your enemies and do good to them, and lend expecting nothing back; then
your reward will be great and you will be children of the Most High, for he himself is kind to
the ungrateful and the wicked. Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful." - Lk 6:35-36

RCIA THIS IS A TEST: Can you name the seven sacraments? If
you thought that was easy, can you name the elements of
each sacrament, what must be present for it to be a
sacrament? Which sacraments have you received? Are you
living up to those sacraments? These are questions we as
Catholics should be asking ourselves on a regular basis to
make sure we are following the intentions of Jesus. Lord
Jesus, make us more conscious of all of your sacraments.

Adult Religious Education classes continue for this school
year. Although the classes are required for parents and sponsors of First Communion and Confirmation candidates, we invite all parishioners to attend one or all of the units
offered. The classes are meant to enrich our spiritual lives, help
us understand and communicate the Catholic faith and aid us
in our spiritual growth. The cost of each unit is very minimal
(usually $5 to $10) and is determined by
the materials used.
UNIT FOUR: PHILIPPIANS: Life in
Christ by Tim Gray began on February
19th. This is the last opportunity for
parents and sponsors of First
Communion and Confirmation
candidates to fulfill the Adult Religious
Education requirement.

JORNADA DE FE On Saturday March 2nd from 9:00AM—3:00PM Joel Hopko
will conduct a session on "The Church in New Mexico" for
Jornada de Fe. The session will be held at the Cristo Rey
Parish Center and will include a pot luck luncheon.
Monsignor Jerome Martinez y Alire has developed a national
recognition for his extensive knowledge and deeply personal
insights into the unique and colorful history of the Catholic
Church as it migrated from the 'Old World' and found
fertile ground in New Mexico. Joel will combine excerpts
from Monsignor Jerome's video presentation with a focused
discussion around the key issues he raises, including
especially "enculturation," that is how the Church's particular
blend of European cultures have affected its presentation
and assimilation in a non-European cultural environment
like New Mexico.
Joel is the coordinator for Jornada de Fe program, sponsored
by the Archdiocese and the Santa Fe deanery. He has an MA
in Theology and has been active in adult Catholic theological
education throughout the state for over 40 years.
Collection amounts for the weekend of February 16th and
17th were not available at time of publication. They will be
published in a future bulletin.
