Sunday: The 3rd Sunday of Lent Ex 20:1-17 [1-3, 7-8, 12-17]; Ps 19:8-11; 1 Cor 1:22-25; Jn 2:13-25 Alternate readings (Year A): Ex 17:3-7; Ps 95:1-2, 6-9; Rom 5:1-2, 5-8; Jn 4:5-42 [5-15, 19b-26, 39a, 40-42] The law liberates and leads us to freedom. It is to be trusted for it is a source of wisdom. Jesus speaks of the ultimate freedom to be won for us by his being raised up. He is the sign of the power and wisdom of God. Monday: 2 Kgs 5:1-15b; Ps 42:2, 3; 43:3, 4; Lk 4:24-30 As Elisha cured Naaman the Syrian in the waters of the Jordan so Jesus promises healing salvation for all. Tuesday: Dn 3:25, 34-43; Ps 25:4-5ab, 6-7bc, 8-9; Mt 18:21-35 If we wish to follow the Lorde’s ways unreservedly we must forgive one another from the heart. Wednesday: Dt 4:1, 5-9; Ps 147:12-13, 15-16, 19-20; Mt 5:17-19 Israel is exhorted to keep God’s covenant which has been proclaimed Jesus is the fulfillment of the Law and the prophets. Thursday: Jer 7:23-28; Ps 95:1-2, 6-9; Lk 11:14-23 Return to the Lord and be one with him. Listen too his voice and obey his commands. Friday: Hos 14:2-10; Ps 81:6c-11ab, 14, 17; Mk 12:28-34 By observing the two great commandments, you will walk in the paths of the Lord. Saturday: Hos 6:1-6; Ps 51:3-4, 18-21ab; Lk 18:9-14 It is love that the Lord desires, not sacrifice; he longs for sincerity and humility of heart. Sunday: 4th Sunday of Lent 2 Chr 36:14-16, 19-23; Ps 137:1-6; Eph 2:4-10; Jn 3:14-21 Alternate readings (Year A): 1 Sm 16:1b, 6-7, 10-13a; Ps 23:1-6; Eph 5:8-14; Jn 9:1-41 [1, 6-9, 13-17, 34-38] God pardons and raises up those who have been unfaithful, those who have loved the darkness rather than the light. For God so loved the world that he sent his only Son to deliver the world from exile. SAINTS AND SPECIAL OBSERVANCES Sunday: Third Sunday of Lent; First Scrutiny Wednesday: Ss. Perpetua and Felicity Thursday: St. John of God Friday: St. Frances of Rome; Abstinence
I, the Lord, am your God . . . You shall not have other gods besides me.

Segunda lectura Pablo proclama a Cristo crucificado; Cristo es el poder y la sabiduría de Dios (1 Corintios 1:22-25) o Romanos 5:1-2, 5-8. Evangelio Jesús echa a los mercaderes del templo y predice su resurrección (Juan 2:13-25) o Juan 4:5-42 [5-15, 19b-26, 39a, 40-42].
LOS SANTOS Y OTRAS CELEBRACIONES Domingo: Tercer Domingo de Cuaresma; Primer Escrutinio Miércoles: Santas Perpetua y Felicitas Jueves: San Juan de Dios Viernes: Santa Francisca Romana; Abstinencia
TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE Durante la Cuaresma es importante orar, pero muchas personas se declaran ignorantes sobre el tema de la oración. Dicen que nunca aprendieron a orar o que les gustaría poder orar mejor. Tristemente, muchos tienen un entendimiento equivocado sobre lo que es la oración. Piensan que orar es solo recitar oraciones memorizadas o esperan que la oración produzca visiones extraordinarias como la transfiguración de Jesucristo en el monte Tabor. Esperan que patriarcas y profetas, o por lo menos ángeles y santos, se les aparezcan de repente. No digo que estas cosas no pasan, muchas personas lo han experimentado, algunos de ellos por ser muy santos mientras otros más por ser locos. Sinceramente la oración es otra cosa, es más fácil que aprender oraciones de memoria y mucho más simple que éxtasis y visiones. Orar es hablar como hijo o hija al Dios que nos ama como madre, padre, hermano, hermana, amante y amigo. Orar es contarle al Señor como nos van las cosas, nuestros temores, nuestros problemas, nuestros gozos y nuestros anhelos. Orar es pasar tiempo con Dios, a veces platicando, y a veces calladitos, pero siempre amados.

This and That Page 6 Esto y aquello
DID YOU KNOW?
Helping children understand that they have the right to establish boundaries if anyone tries to hurt them or touch them in a way that
makes them feel uncomfortable is an important, but sometimes difficult, task. Establishing boundaries around touch is integral to
keeping kids safe. Having regular, open conversations about safety is one of the best ways to help keep kids safe. Remind children that their bodies are their own, encourage them to talk about their con-cerns and listen respectfully when they do. For more information
from kidsmartz.org visit, http://www.kidsmartz.org/~/media/KidSmartz/ResourceDocuments/
KidSmartz_Setting_Physical_Boundaries.pdf.
¿SABÍA USTED?
Ayudar a los niños a comprender que tienen derecho a establecer límites si alguien intenta lastimarlos o tocarlos de una manera que los haga sentir incómodos es una tarea importante, pero a veces difícil.
Establecer límites alrededor del tacto es esencial para mantener seguros a los niños. Tener conversaciones abiertas y regulares sobre la seguridad es una de las mejores maneras de ayudar a mantener a
los niños seguros. Recuérdeles a los niños que sus cuerpos son suyos, anímelos a hablar sobre sus preocupaciones y escuche
respetuosamente cuando lo hagan. Para obtener más información, visite kidsmartz.org, http://www.kidsmartz.org/~/media/KidSmartz
