EL DIABLO y EL PATO
Hubo un niño pequeño visitando a sus abuelos en el campo. Se le había
dado una flecha para que jugara en el bosque. El practicó pero no pudo
darle al blanco. Se desanimó y se regresó para la cena.
En su camino el vio a la mascota de la abuela, un patito. Él uso la
flecha, ¡y qué crees, le dio en el mismo centro de la cabeza y lo mató!
¡Él se asombró y lloró! Aterrorizado, escondió el pato muerto en una
pila de leña solo para entonces darse cuenta que su hermana lo
vigilaba.
Después del almuerzo el siguiente día, la abuela dijo, “Salí, vamos a
lavar los trastes.” Pero Salí dijo, “Abuelita, Juanito me dijo que él
quería ayudar en la cocina.” Entonces ella le susurró, “¿recuerdas el
patito?” Por cuya razón, Juan lavó los trastes.
Más tarde ese día, el abuelo preguntó si los niños querían ir a pescar y
la abuela le contestó, “Lo siento, pero necesito que Salí me ayude con
la cena.” Salí sonrió y dijo, “Bueno no importa porque Juan me dijo
que él quería ayudarte”. De nuevo le susurró, “¿recuerdas el patito?”
De modo que ella se fue con el abuelito y Juan se quedó para ayudar.
Después de varios días Juanito ya no podía más, fue a donde su abuela
y le confesó que él había matado el patito. La abuela se arrodilló
delante de él, le dio un abrazo y le dijo, “mi adorado, ya lo sabía. Tú
ves, yo estaba ahí en la ventana y vi todo, pero porque te quiero, te
perdoné. Solo me estaba preguntando por cuánto tiempo más ibas a
permitir que Sali te tuviera de esclavo.”
Un pensamiento para hoy y todos los días que siguen Lo que sea que esté en tu pasado; lo que sea que hayas hecho, el diablo
seguirá tirándotelo en la cara (sea una mentira, un engaño, deuda,
miedo, mala maña, odio, coraje, amargura, etc.) Sea lo que sea, tú
necesitas saber que Dios estaba ahí mismo en la ventana y ya vio lo
sucedido. Él quiere que sepas que Él te quiere y que te ha perdonado.
Solo se está preguntando por cuánto tiempo vas a permitir que el
diablo te tenga de esclavo.
Lo mejor que tiene Dios es que cuando pides perdón É no solo te
perdona sino que olvida. Es por la gracia de Dios y su misericordia que
somos salvos.

"Speak, Lord, your servant is listening."
Today we officially begin "Ordinary Time" of the liturgical year, the
Word of God never ceases to surprise and challenge us. What a good
example we have when Samuel listens to the call of God and when
Jesus answers the two disciples of John the Baptist: "Come and see".
Jesus turned and saw them following him and said to them, “What are
you looking for?” “Rabbi”, where are you staying?” “Come and you will see.” So
they went and saw and they stay with him that day.
Samuel is the only son of Hannah, the son she gave birth to after she begged God to
give her a son knowing of her sterility, a son later consecrated to God. The Lord
actually answered her prayers and she named him "SHMU-el (Samuel)," which
means "God has heard." Hannah gives her son as an "offering" to the Lord, trusting
her young son to the old priest Eli at the Shiloh Temple "where the ark of God was."
What God gives us is a gift, what we return to Him is our poor offering. This story of
the impossible made possible is repeated again. How many things have we
considered impossible that we have achieved! What seemed unreachable was
obtained! What was difficult, with constancy and perseverance became easy!
But when we talk about our relationship with God, there is something different. He
does not want us just to hear him or find him for one hour a week. He wants us to
live in a relationship with Him and for Him. God wants to be part of our lives and
our history, and expects us to do the same. The best way to nurture His presence is
through the Eucharist and the Holy Word. Hence all the resources that the Church
promotes are ways in which we can grow and believe more and more.
What are you looking for? This question still echoes in each of us when we feel
restless and eager for more ... many times we do not know what we want ... But as St.
Augustine said, my soul was restless, until I found rest in Thee. God grant that our
parish community will continue to be holy so that we can together establish the
Kingdom in our midst.
What a blessing it is to begin this year knowing, that our Holy Father will soon be so
close to us. It will be another opportunity to pray for strength in our families and why
not the church family? So let us all say, “Speak Lord your servant is listening”.

LETTURA DEL GIORNO
IN ATTESA DEL MESSIA
La storia nel Vangelo di oggi di
Giovanni e dei suoi discepoli che
vedono e seguono Gesu’ sembra cosi’
semplice e casuale che e’ facile non capire i
significativi atti di fede compiuti. Giovanni indica
Gesu’: “Guardate,” egli dice,”Ecco l’Agnello di
Dio”. La fede di Giovanni in Gesu’ e’ evidente, cosi’
evidente che i suoi discepoli immediatamente lo
lasciano e seguono Gesu’. I due discepoli professano
il loro atto di fede. Seguono Gesu’, passano il tempo
con lui, e sono pronti a divulgare la buona notizia
della loro scoperta: “Noi abbiamo trovato il Messia”.
E’ facile dimenticare che le aspettative di
generazioni, le speranze di molte epoche di fedeli
erano realizzate in questi semplici atti di fede.
L’Agnello di Dio, il Messia, previsto dai profeti, era
finalmente arrivato. Quasi ognuno dei Giudei
aspettava il Messia allora; chi oggi nella nostra
societa’ e’ in aspettativa per segni della presenza del
Messia?
FEAST OF ST. BLASÉ:
Tuesday, 3 February 2015 is the
memorial of St. Blasé, Bishop and
Martyr, who is venerated for the
protection against ailments of the
throat. Throats will be blessed at
12:15PM Mass at SJC. All are welcome!
FEAST OF OUR LADY OF
LOURDES
11 February has become associated
with the celebration of the World
Day of the Sick for the past years.
We are reminded of the gift of life,
we are reminded to pray for the sick and to
appreciate and pray for caregivers. Thank you and
God bless all who provide compassionate care,
Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion to the
homebound, Healthcare Workers and caregivers.

READING OF THE DAY
WATCHING FOR THE MESSIAH
Today’s Gospel story of John and
his disciples seeing and following
Jesus sounds so simple and casual,
it’s easy to miss the significant acts of faith that
are made.
John points to Jesus: “Look,” he says, “there is
the Lamb of God.” John’s faith in Jesus is
evident, so evident that John’s disciples
immediately leave his side to follow this Jesus.
The two disciples make their own act of faith.
They follow Jesus, spend time with him, and are
quick to spread the good news of their discovery:
“We have found the Messiah.”
It is easy to forget that the expectations of
generations, the hopes of many ages of faithful
people were being fulfilled in these simple acts of
faith. The Lamb of God, the Messiah, foretold by
the prophets, had finally come. Nearly everyone
among the Jewish people was watching for the
Messiah back then; who in our own society
watches for signs of the presence of the Messiah
today?
TODAY’S READINGS: First Reading: 1
Samuel 3:3b-10 Second Reading: 1 Corinthians
6:13c-15a Gospel: John 1:35-42
Through baptism we have been joined to the Lord
who calls us to be his disciples. How well do we
listen to his voice? How willing are we to do his
will?. From ORDO 2015
REFLECTION QUESTIONS OF THE WEEK
ADULT: In what ways do you experience being
called by Jesus?
CHILD: What can you do this week to show that
you are a follower of Jesus?
All the earth shall bow down before you, O God, and shall
sing to you, shall sing to your name, O Most High!
(Psalm 66 (65):4)

¡Habla Señor que tu Siervo escucha!
Hoy, comenzamos oficialmente el "Tiempo Ordinario" del año
litúrgico, la Palabra de Dios nunca deja de sorprendernos y
desafiarnos. Un ejemplo lo escuchamos en el llamado de Samuel y la
respuesta de Jesús "Venid y lo veréis" a los dos discípulos de Juan el
Bautista, uno de ellos es Andrés, hermano de Simón Pedro.
Samuel es el único hijo de Hannah, el hijo que ella dió a luz después de que ella le
rogó a Dios que le regalara un hijo en su esterilidad, un hijo al que consagraría a
Dios. El Señor de hecho responde a su oración y ella lo llama "SHMU-el (Samuel)",
que significa "Dios ha escuchado." Hannah le entrega a su hijo como una
"ofrenda" al Señor, confiando su pequeño hijo al anciano sacerdote Elí en el templo
de Shiloh "donde estaba el arca de Dios." Lo que Dios nos da, es un regalo, lo que
nosotros le entregamos a Él es nuestra pobre ofrenda. Esta historia de lo imposible
se repite una y otra vez en nosotros. Tantas cosas que creíamos imposibles ¡las
hemos logrado! ¡Lo que parecía inalcanzable lo hemos obtenido! Aquello que antes
era difícil, con la constancia y la perseverancia se volvió corriente.
Sin embarg, cuando hablamos de nuestra relación con Dios, hay algo diferente. El
no quiere que solamente le escuchemos o le encontremos una hora a la semana. Él
quiere que vivamos en una relación con Él y para Él. Dios quiere ser parte de
nuestras vidas y de nuestra historia, así mismo espera que nosotros hagamos parte
de la suya. La mejor manera de nutrirnos de su presencia es con la Eucaristía y con
la Palabra. De allí se derivan todos los recursos que la Iglesia promueve para que
podamos crecer y creer más.
Jesús se volvió, y les dice: “¿Qué buscáis?” “Rabbí ¿dónde vives?” Les respondió:
“Venid y lo veréis”. Fueron, pues, vieron dónde vivía y se quedaron con él aquel día.
¿Que estás buscando? Esta pregunta sigue haciendo eco en cada uno de nosotros
que nos sentimos inquietos y con deseos por más… muchas veces no sabemos ni de
que… Pero como dijo San Agustín, mi alma estaba inquieta, hasta que encontró
reposo en Ti. Dios quiera que nuestra comunidad parroquial se siga enriqueciendo
espiritualmente para que podamos juntos establecer el Reino en medio de nosotros.
Que bendición comenzar este año, sabiendo que en Septiembre tendremos al Santo
Padre tan cerca de nosotros. Es una oportunidad más para orar y fortalecer nuestras
familias y ¿por qué no la familia eclesial? Así es que digámosle juntos: "Habla,
Señor, que tu siervo escucha".
Padre Cesar Rubiano.

LECTURA DEL DÍA
EN BÚSQUEDA DEL MESÍAS
El relato del Evangelio de hoy en
el que Juan y sus discípulos ven y
siguen a Jesús, suena tan sencillo e
informal, que fácilmente pasan desapercibidos los
importantes actos de fe que ocurren.
Juan señala a Jesús: “Miren”, les dice, “este es
el Cordero de Dios”. La fe de Juan en Jesús es
evidente, tan evidente que los discípulos de Juan
inmediatamente se van de su lado y siguen a
Jesús.
Los dos discípulos a su vez hacen un acto de
fe. Ellos siguen a Jesús, pasan tiempo con él, y no
demoran en compartir la buena nueva de su
descubrimiento: “Hemos encontrado al Mesías”.
Es fácil olvidar que las expectativas de
generaciones, las esperanzas de muchos siglos de
fieles se estaban cumpliendo en estos sencillos
actos de fe. El Cordero de Dios, el Mesías,
anunciado por los profetas, finalmente había
llegado. Prácticamente todo el mundo en el pueblo
judío estaba a la búsqueda del Mesías en esa
época; ¿quién de nuestra sociedad busca señales
de la presencia del Mesías hoy día?
FIESTA DE SAN BLÁS
Acompáñenos el martes 3 de
febrero 2015 para honrar a San
Blás y continuar con la tradición de

ST. IGNATIUS LOYOLA:
Lord, teach me to be generous.
Teach me to serve you as you deserve; To give and
not to count the cost; To fight and not to heed the
wounds; To toil and not to seek for rest; To labor
and not to ask for reward; Save that of knowing
that I do your will.

member of the clergy or anyone representing the

THE DEVIL & THE DUCK
There was a little boy visiting his grandparents on
their farm. He was given a slingshot to play with
out in the woods. He practiced, but he could not hit
the target. Getting discouraged, he headed back for
dinner.
While walking back, he saw Grandma's pet duck.
He let the slingshot fly, hit the duck square in the
head and killed it! He was shocked and grieved! In
a panic, he hid the dead duck in the wood pile; only
to see his Sister watching!
After lunch the next day Grandma said, 'Sally, let's
wash the dishes.' But Sally said, 'Grandma, Johnny
told me he wanted to help in the kitchen.' Then she
whispered to him, "Remember the duck?' So
Johnny did the dishes.
Later that day, Grandpa asked if the children wanted
to go fishing and Grandma said, 'I'm sorry but I
need Sally to help make supper.' Sally just smiled
and said, 'Well that's all right because Johnny told
me he wanted to help?’ She whispered again,
'Remember the duck?' So Sally went fishing and
Johnny stayed to help.
After several days of this, he finally couldn't stand it
any longer. He came to Grandma and confessed that
he had killed the duck.
Grandma knelt down, gave him a hug and said,
'Sweetheart, I know. You see, I was standing at the
window and I saw the whole thing, but because I
love you, I forgave you. I was just wondering how
long you would let Sally make a slave of you.’
Thought for today and every day hereafter Whatever is in your past, whatever you have done,
the devil keeps throwing it up in your face (lying,
cheating, debt, fear, bad habits, hatred, anger,
bitterness, etc.) Whatever it is, you need to know
that God was standing at the window and He saw
the whole thing. He has seen your whole life. He
wants you to know that He loves you and that you
are forgiven. He's just wondering how long you will
let the devil make a slave of you.
The great thing about God is that when you ask for
forgiveness, He not only forgives you, but He
forgets. It is by God's grace and mercy that we are
saved.

IS GOD CALLING YOU?
Vocational discernment groups meet to assist young
men who are discerning the possibility that God may
be calling them to a life of priestly ministry. These
groups are designed to explore a priestly vocation
with other like-minded men through prayer and
sharing vocation stories and experiences. The group
meetings are not meant to convince anyone that the
priesthood is their vocation. They are designed to
assist you in discovering if the priesthood is your true
vocation and build your relationship with Christ along
the way.
If you are a faithful, single, Roman Catholic man,
between the ages of 18 and 40, and are asking
yourself whether God is calling you to be a priest, you
are cordially invited to attend this month’s
discernment meeting on January 25th, from 4pm to
6pm at Saint Joseph Parish, 685 Hooper Avenue in
Toms River, New Jersey. Join Rev. Scott Schaffer, as
he shares his experiences of the priesthood, followed
by prayer and concluding with a great meal and
conversation.
Please register with the Diocese of Trenton Vocation
Office at [email protected] or by
calling (609) 406-7449. Join us at this exciting time
as you discover and respond to His invitation!
