Sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time February 15, 2015 Whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do everything for the glory of God. — 1 Corinthians 10:31 FOR THE GLORY OF GOD The entire history of the Jewish people is directed toward one goal: that God might be glorified through the chosen people. Christians, too, are called to “do everything for the glory of God.” In today’s scriptures Paul reminds us that the best way for us to glorify God is to seek to benefit “the many,” as Christ did when he shed his blood for all of humankind. The reading from Leviticus explains one way the Jews sought to benefit the many, by keeping lepers and leprosy away from the chosen people. Jesus finds a better way. He cures the leper, who immediately reenters the community to spread the good news about Jesus to everyone who will listen. In this way both Jesus and the leper fulfill their calling to glorify the God who fills us “with the joy of salvation.” Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co. LENTEN REGULATIONS Everyone 14 years of age and older is bound to abstain from meat on Ash Wednesday, the Fridays of Lent and Good Friday. Everyone 18 years of age and older but under the age of 60 is also bound to fast Ash Wednesday and Good Friday. On these two days , the law of fast allows only one full meal a day, but does not prohibit taking some food during the day, so long as this does not constitute another full meal. Drinking liquids during the day is permitted. When health or ability to work would be seriously affected, the law does not oblige. In doubt concerning fast or abstinence, a priest assigned to pastoral ministry or confessor should be consulted. In the spirit of penance, the faithful should not lightly excuse themselves from this obligation. Parishioners are encouraged to receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation during Lent, and attend Morning Prayer at 7:15 am, and one of the daily Masses at 6:30 & 8:00 am. Stations of the Cross are Fridays at 2:15 & 7 pm Set your marriage On Fire!

At the retreat, they will share their insights into how you can have a more loving, joy-filled marriage, based on their experiences with hundreds of couples around the US. The Alexanders will also offer evening presentations around the Bay Area, from Feb 25 – March 27.
