(Previously: And since we are united in God, we can do
something for those who are far distant, those whom we could
never reach on our own, because with them and for them, we
ask God that all of us may be open to his plan of salvation.)

Communities
All that we have been saying about the universal Church must
now be applied to the life of our parishes and communities.
Do these ecclesial structures enable us to experience being
part of one body? A body which receives and shares what
God wishes to give? A body which acknowledges and cares
for its weakest, poorest and most insignificant members? Or
do we take refuge in a universal love that would embrace the go out of itself and to be engaged in the life of the greater

Voices from yesterday and today…

ST. CHAD: Outstanding Bishop
of early Medieval England
634 – 672

“We Need to Climb the Mountain,
But We Cannot Stay There”
TRANSFIGURATION: A
MOMENT OF GRACE TO
LISTEN, LEARN, LIVE LIKE
JESUS
“No One Lives ‘on Tabor’
While on Earth”
Pope Emeritus Benedict the XVI
said - When one has the grace to
sense a strong experience of God, it
is as though seeing something similar
to what the disciples experienced
during the Transfiguration: For a
moment they experienced ahead of
time something that will constitute
the happiness of paradise. In
general, it is brief experiences that
God grants on occasions, especially
in anticipation of harsh trials.
However, no one lives “on Tabor”
while on earth.
Human existence is a journey
of faith and, as such, goes forward
more in darkness than in full light,
with moments of obscurity and
even profound darkness. While we
are here, our relationship with God
develops more with listening than
with seeing; and even contemplation
takes place, so to speak, with closed
eyes, thanks to the interior light lit in
us by the word of God.
This is, therefore, the gift and
commitment for each one of us in the
Lenten season: To listen to Christ,
like Mary. To listen to him in the
word, preserved in sacred Scripture.
To listen to him in the very events
of our lives, trying to read in them
2
Pope Francis spoke on the
importance of listening, of being
attuned and attentive to the Word of
God; and the movement of ascent
and descent that characterizes the
Gospel episode (Mt. 17:1-9), in
which the Lord takes Peter, James
and John to the top of Mt Tabor,
reveals Himself in His glorified form,
and returns down the mountain with
them, with grave warnings to the
disciples who accompanied Him not
to speak of what they had seen.
If you’re ever in Birmingham,
England do pass by the cathedral
which bears St. Chad’s name and
look for his relics. This is because
he did a lot to Christianize this part of
early Medieval England.
Chad (also known as Ceadda)
came from a holy family which
raised 3 other brothers all of whom
were priests two of which became
distinguished bishops. They were
born in the Kingdom of Northumbria,
England and were Angles by race.
Chad’s elder brother Cedd and he
were trained by famous St. Aidan
at the great abbey of Lindisfarne.

“The mountain is the site of the

God - the place of prayer, in which

Lord,” said Pope Francis. “We, the
disciples of Jesus, are called to be
people who listen to His voice and
take his words seriously.” He added,
“To listen to Jesus, we must follow
Him.”
Pope Francis said that we are
called to carry the fruits of the
experience we have with God to
our troubled brothers and sisters,
sharing with them the treasures of
grace received. (Vatican City, March

Would you feast or fast?
Our natural response is that we
would like to feast. We want to enjoy
life and avoid any sufferings. Yet,
Jesus tells us: “If anyone wants to
be a follower of mine, let him deny
himself and take up his cross every
day and follow me.” (Luke 9:23) We
find it strange that God, who loves us
so much, would want us to suffer by
denying ourselves.
God is not opposed to our
happiness. When God created us,
he had our good and our happiness
in mind. But because of original sin,
there exists in us the seeds of evil
which prevent us from reaching
true happiness. Self-denial (or
mortification) is the means to fight and
remove these seeds.
The Church, our wise mother,
encourages us to practice constant and
generous mortification. We are asked
to fight against our vices, sinful habits,
and our self-centered tendencies.
The real end of mortification is union
with God. We struggle against our evil

inclinations in order to subject them
to God’s will. We die to ourselves in
order to live the life of Christ, the life
of God.
The Church has built into the
liturgical year certain seasons, like
Lent, obligatory days of fasting and
abstinence. Very often, we are quick
to complain and to find all kinds of
excuses to be exempted from them.
Yet how many of us undergo great
sacrifices to remain fit or to look good?
How many athletes make countless
sacrifices to win a game? And we are
quick to call these efforts good and
worthwhile.
To practice self-denial, we do not
have to always make great sacrifices.
We can make little conquests, such
as getting up early, drinking one glass
of wine instead of two, keeping our
room in order, switching TV channels
from indecent scenes, controlling our
sarcastic comments on the maids,
limiting our time on Facebook or
computer games, controlling our
roving eyes on scantily-dressed
women, being punctual, smiling,
listening to others,...
Ordinary life offers us innumerable
opportunities to offer sacrifices to God.
Our little renunciations can be united
to Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross: to
make up for our sins and the sins of
others. Our small mortifications can
purify our souls and draw us closer to
God.

to be given by Fr. Robert
Manansala OFM.
Our goal for this brief talk is to take some time to reflect a
little on the seeds that have been sown by Pope Francis.
We’re soon approaching the two-month mark since Pope
Francis’ historic visit to the Philippines. For most of us by
now, the spiritual euphoria that everyone felt has subsided
and we’ve gone back to our everyday routines. There is a
danger then that we will start to treat the graces of this visit
like lightning in a bottle - something that happened once
and we cannot recapture ever again. Certainly this is not
the goal of Pope Francis himself! It would be more fruitful
to think of the graces we have received as seeds - planted
deep down by Francis the laborer. Thus, these seeds need
to be nurtured, cared for and allowed to grow and blossom.

NOTICE: WE NEED ANGELS!
Boys and girls ages 6-12 years old
are invited to join as Angels for the
traditional Easter Salubong rites on
Easter Sunday, April 5. Please register
at the parish office.
Our vinedresser will be Father Robert, and he will guide us
in nurturing the seeds of Pope Francis’ visit. He will lead
us in reflecting on the wisdom that Pope Francis gave us
while he was here. Together, let us explore the words of
Francis to use the language of the mind, the heart and of
the hands in our Christian lives. “To think - To Feel - and
to Do.” This is the wisdom that Pope Francis has given us.
Let us reflect on these words together, and see how we
can apply them to our lives during this season of Lent.
Again, March 7 from 10am to 12nn at the Parish Center.
We hope to see you there!

Casimir
St. Casimir, son of the king of Poland, was born in 1458. He
practiced the Christian virtues with special regard to chastity
and kindness to the poor and was zealous of the faith,
particularly in his devotion to the Holy Eucharist and the Virgin
Mary. Casimir died of consumption in 1484.

Perpetua and Felicity, martyrs
Sts. Perpetua and Felicity suffered martyrdom in the
persecution of Septimus Severus at Carthage in 203. A most
accurate account of their death still exists, derived partly from
their own testimonies and partly from a writer of the period.

HEALTH CARE MINISTRY
In lieu of the month of February’s first Friday healing
mass, the Health Care Ministry sponsored the World
Day of the Sick healing mass last February 11. It
was also the Feast Day of Our Lady of Lourdes.
Right after the mass, the anointing of the sick was
administered to those who queued up for it. Let us
always approach our loving Mother, not just on her
feast day, but at all times. Let us open our hearts
with unbounded confidence to implore her maternal
intercession for our infirmities, both corporal and
spiritual. For She is the Immaculate Virgin, Mother
of Mercy, Health of the Sick, Refuge of Sinners and
Comforter of the Afflicted.
FIRST FRIDAY HEALING MASS
DATE: March 6, 2015 at 3 pm.
WHERE: Ground floor, Parish Center
