ADORATION OF THE BLESSED SACRAMENT
FIRST FRIDAY OF EVERY MONTH Starts March 6, 2015
Are you personally connected to Jesus in the Eucharist?
If you’re married, or if you have a really good friend, then you know what it takes to be in a “relationship” with
someone. And we know that if we want that relationship to remain strong and have that relationship grow into
friendship, we have to do two things: one is to spend time together, and the other is to talk with each other
frequently.
As Catholic Christians we know that the best friend, and the love of our souls is Jesus Christ. Yet many of us
suffer from a feeling that we don’t really know who Jesus is, or we don’t feel like we have a personal relationship
with Him. Jesus is more like a figure from a history book to some of us, or some mysterious God-man to whom
we have obligations, yet we don’t really feel anything in our hearts towards Him.
One of the Answers to Deepening our Relationship With Christ
The solution to this personal struggle is to deepen your relationship with Jesus. Just as you would with any
human friend or your spouse, you have to make a decided effort to get to know Him better. You have to spend
time with Him, and speak with Him often. In other words, you need to spend time in prayer.
Eucharistic Adoration is the best way we have on this earth to spend a long time in quiet conversation with Jesus. You’ll recall that just before Jesus physically left the apostles and ascended to the Father, he reassured them,
“And behold, I am with you always, until the end of the age.” (Matthew 28:20) This statement is fulfilled in the
reality of the Real Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist, in the hands of the priest at Mass each day, reserved in the
tabernacles in the heart of our churches, and right before our very eyes in Eucharistic Adoration.
“Feel the Love” in Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament
What sets Eucharistic Adoration apart from other forms of prayer is that we are able to be in the same room
with Him present in the Blessed Sacrament, the Eucharist. Though veiled under the appearance of bread, in
reality we are gazing on His Sacred Heart, and the love that radiates from the little white host in the monstrance
- the beautiful stand which holds the host behind glass for the adorer to see - is transforming. Sitting or kneeling in the presence of Jesus in this way could be called “Son-bathing.” Like the rays of sunshine that warm our
skin, the rays of His love touch our souls and provide healing, reassurance, comfort, strength… whatever it is
we need in this life to help us live according to God’s will so we can one day live with Him forever in Heaven.
So when you visit Jesus in the most Holy Sacrament of the Altar you can say the rosary, read a prayer book,
read from the bible…contemplate, meditate, they ways to speak with him are many…but most of all…make
that visit once a month – every first Friday…it doesn’t matter when…just visit and be with him every chance
you get. You’ll be amazed at the transformation your life will make if you take only a few minutes a month, just
for Him in Adoration. If you’d like to discuss this further please call me. Blessings, Deacon Pat

2015 DDF Annual Appeal
This week you should have received information about the 2015 DDF Annual Appeal, Once
a year, our bishop invites each of us to make a
commitment to support the work of our diocesan
programs and ministries that enhance our church
by helping all of God’s children build deeper and
more meaningful relationships with Him.
This effort is a means by which we can all work
together to care for the church by sharing the gifts
God has granted us. Our parish goal is 100% participation. We welcome you to join us in joyfully
supporting the DDF Annual Appeal. Please take
time this week to reflect and pray about the blessings you are called to share with your Catholic
family.
We invite you to to put your prayers into action
by making a pledge to support the DDF Annual
Appeal. As you disern your gift amount, please
consider the following questions:
1. How can I establish a deeper relationship with
God?
2. Do I really belive that everything I am and everthing I have is a gift from God?
3. Is what I give to the church enough to show how
grateful I am for what God has given me?

Thank you for taking part in the survey for the Synod of Bishops: The Vocation and mission of the Family in the Church
and contemporary world. Your involvement is important and appreciated.
Before you proceed with taking the survey, it is very important that you have read the Lineamenta [the working document]
of the Synod that will take place in October 2015. A separate link to this document can be found here on the diocesan web
site. After you have read the Lineamenta, please respond to the questions in one of the two surveys linked on the diocesan
web site and submit them before 20 February, 2015. If you feel you cannot answer each question, please submit the responses that you did give.
As you fill out this questionnaire, don’t lose sight that it follows a process that should be respected: the first part is “Listening” and is oriented toward a description of the situation of the family in our world today; the second part is “Looking
at Christ” and is oriented toward a reflection on what the Gospel teaches us about the family; and the third part is “Confronting the situation” which inquires about the pastoral initiatives and political actions that we should promote in order
to improve the situation of families. Therefore, as you answer each question, please follow this methodology by taking into
account the part of th e questionnaire in which you are working.
Again thank you for your contribution to this important topic in our Church, today.
In Christ,
Rev. Rafael Partida
Episcopal Vicar, Riverside Pastoral Region

La Vocación y Misión de la Familia en la Iglesia y en el Mundo Contemporáneo
Gracias por participar en la encuesta para el Sínodo de los Obispos: La Vocación y Misión de la Familia en la Iglesia y en el
Mundo Contemporáneo. Su participación es importante y apreciada.
Antes de proceder en tomar la encuesta, es muy importante que haya leído la Lineamenta [el documento de trabajo] del
Sínodo que tendrá lugar en octubre de 2015. En este sitio de web encontrara un enlace para este documento. Después de
leer la Lineamenta por favor conteste las preguntas en una de las dos encuestas enlazadas al sitio de web y envíelas antes
del 20 de febrero de 2015. Si usted siente que no puede responder a cada pregunta, por favor, envíe las respuestas que sí
pudo elaborar.
Al llenar este cuestionario, dese cuenta que se sigue un proceso que debe ser respetado: la primera parte es “escuchar” y se
orienta hacia una descripción de la situación de la familia en el mundo de hoy, la segunda parte es “la mirada fija en Cristo”
y se orienta hacia una reflexión sobre lo que el Evangelio nos enseña acerca de la familia; y la tercera parte es “confrontar
la situación”, que indaga sobre las iniciativas pastorales y acciones políticas que debemos promover con el fin de mejorar la
situación de las familias. Por lo tanto, al responder a cada pregunta, por favor, siga esta metodología, teniendo en consideración la sección del cuestionario en el que está trabajando.
Una vez más gracias por su contribución a este tema tan importante en nuestra Iglesia hoy.
En Cristo,
Rev. Rafael Partida

Reflecting on God’s Word
In Jesus’ day, demonic possession was not uncommon. Mark presents Jesus as one who takes on the evil spirits, overturning their
possession of this man. Jesus has declared war against the kingdom of Satan. Its hour of ascendancy is coming to an end.
The unclean spirit recognizes Jesus as one with greater power, for
it asks, “Have you come to destroy us?” Then it confesses Jesus as
the “Holy One of God” (Mark 1:24). Jesus will battle the forces of
evil to the death, his death. But what looks like defeat for Jesus
will be changed to victory, because the power of God is at work in
him.
In the first reading from Deuteronomy, Moses is speaking to the
people before they enter the Promised Land. The entire book is
his farewell speech to them. He will not go with them. He consoles
them, saying that God promises to raise up a prophet like Moses
and will speak through him: “I . . . will put my words into his
mouth” (Deuteronomy 18:18).
Jesus is presented to us today as the prophet like Moses, who
teaches with the authority of God and whose words are obeyed
even by unclean spirits. There is no power on earth or beyond it
greater than the power of God at work in him.
