Once again, Cardinal Mahony is asking all the parishes of theArchdiocese to contribute to the annual appeal known as TO-GETHER IN MISSION.
The purpose of TOGETHER IN MISSION is to raise funds tohelp the most needy parishes and schools in the Archdiocese.Every parish is asked to raise 10 % of its offertory income (i.e.,donations received through the Sunday collection as well asfrom baptisms, marriages and other sacraments).
This years goal for Holy Innocents is $29,425. This is aboutthe same as last years goal which, thanks to our generous pa-rishioners, we were able to meet.
Registered parishioners will have already received or will soonreceive an appeal letter from Cardinal Mahony himself.
Today, Commitment Sunday, we will be asking our parishion-ers to make a pledge. If everyone does his or her part, weshould be able to reach our parish goal of$29,425.
Parish goal $29,425
TOGETHERIN MISSIONANNUAL APPEAL 09
We need the help of every parishionerto reach our parish goal and to help
our fellow Catholics in need.
On these Sundays the Evangelist Markoffers a sequence of various miraculoushealings for our reflection. Last Sundayhe presented a very special one -- that of ahealed leper (cf. Mark 1:40-45) -- who,coming to Jesus, gets on his knees andsays: If you wish, you can make meclean! Jesus, moved, stretches out hishand, touches him and says: I do wish it.Be made clean!
The man is healed instantly and Jesusasks him not to tell anyone and presenthimself to the priests to offer the sacrifice prescribed by the Mosaiclaw. The healed leper is unable to be quiet and proclaims to every-one what happened to him so that, the evangelist reports, still moresick people ran to Jesus from every part to the point of forcing himto stay out of the cities so as not to be besieged by the crowds.
Jesus says to the leper: Be made clean! According to the an-cient Jewish law (Leviticus 13-14), leprosy was not only considereda sickness but the gravest form of impurity. It was the duty of thepriests to diagnose it and declare the person afflicted with leprosyunclean. This person then had to keep his distance from the commu-nity and stay away from towns until he was certified to be healed.
Leprosy thus constituted a kind of religious and civil death, andits healing was a kind of resurrection. We might see in leprosy a
symbol of sin, which is the true impurity of heart, distancing usfrom God. It is not, in effect, physical malady that distances us fromhim, as the ancient norms supposed, but sin, the spiritual and moralevil.
This is why the Psalmist exclaims: Blessed is he whose fault istaken away / and whose sin is covered. And then, turning to God:Then I acknowledged my sin to you, / my guilt I covered not. / Isaid: I shall confess my faults to the Lord, / and you took awaymy guilt and my sin (Psalm 31:1, 5 [32:1, 5]).
The sins we commit distance us from God, and, if they are nothumbly confessed, trusting in the divine mercy, they will finallybring about the death of the soul. This miracle thus has powerfulsymbolic value. Jesus, as Isaiah prophesied, is the servant of the
Lord who bore our infirmities, / endured our sufferings (Isaiah53:4). In his passion he will become like a leper, made impure byour sins, separated from God: He will do all this for love, with theaim of obtaining reconciliation, forgiveness and salvation for us.
In the Sacrament of Penance Christ crucified and risen, throughhis ministers, purifies us with his infinite mercy, restores us to com-munion with the heavenly Father and our brothers, and makes a giftof his love, joy and peace to us.
Dear brothers and sisters, let us invoke the Virgin Mary, whomGod preserved from every stain of sin, that she help us to avoid sinand to have frequent recourse to the Sacrament of Confession, theSacrament of Forgiveness, whose value and importance for ourChristian life needs to be rediscovered today.
THIS WEDNESDAYIS ASH WEDNESDAY
The Holy Season of Lent begins this coming Wednes-day with the imposition of ashes in the sign of thecross upon the foreheads of the faithful.
The blessed ashes remind us that life in this world isshort. Sooner or later (and probably sooner than most of usthink), the day will arrive when we will stand before Jesusour just judge and give an account of our lives.
The blessed ashes also remind us that sin leads to eter-nal death, that is, eternal separation from God in hellwhere there will be endless suffering and misery.
God sent His Son into the world to save us from this sadand tragic end and Jesus Christ, by His death and resurrec-tion, has offered us the forgiveness of sins so long as werepent.
This simple yet profound gesture--the imposition ofblessed ashes on the forehead--is an expression of our pro-found desire to turn away from sin once and for all and tostrive anew to live a life more pleasing to God. May ourreception of the blessed ashes be accompanied by a sinceredesire for conversion.
CONFESSIONPURIFIESUS
Starting at 5:00pm, BLESSED ASHES will be distributed continuously everyhalf-hour. The line moves very rapidly and there should be little if any waiting.
Please note. There will be just one Mass on Ash Wednesday:
6:55am in the church.

NOTODASLAS IGLESIASCATLICAS LOSON
Puede ser que el templo se mira como untemplo Catlico o que tienen all unaimagen de la Virgen de Guadalupe o deotros Santos Catlicos. Tambin puede serque el llamado Padre se viste comosacerdote y que all dan Misas. Nada deesto garantiza que son Catlicosverdaderos en comunin con el PapaBenedicto.
Tristemente, hay un numero crecientede sectas nuevas que rechazan la autoridad del Papa y las demsdoctrinas Catlicas pero al mismo tiempo dan la impresin a lagente no instruida que ellos si son Catlicos. Lo hacen porque
son negocios y se aprovechan de la gente crdula. Los seoresencargados de aquellas sectas, aunque se visten de Padres, noestn interesados en la salvacin del alma.
Cuidado con aquellas sectas! Y anote bien: un Catlico debeasistir a Misa y recibir los Sacramentos solamente en unaparroquia registrada con la Iglesia Catlica, Apostlica yRomana. Si no, los llamados Sacramentos recibidos no sonlcitos en los ojos de la Iglesia Catlica, Apostlica y Romana.
Si usted tiene una duda sobre una Iglesia especfica, llame a lanotara parroquial. Tenemos en la oficina un directorio de todaslas parroquias que estn en comunin con el Papa y con elCardenal Mahony.

"All the good works in the world are not equal to the Holy
Sacrifice of the Mass because they are the works of men; but
the Mass is the work of God. Martyrdom is nothing in com-
parison for it is but the sacrifice of man to God; but the Mass
is the sacrifice of God for man." - St. John Vianney

THE HOLY MASS/LA SANTA MISATodas las buenas obras en el mundo no se igualan al Santo
Sacrificio de la Misa porque aquellas son obras de los
hombres; pero la Santa Misa es obra de Dios. El martirio esnada en comparacin, porque este es el sacrificio del
hombre a Dios; pero la Santa Misa es el sacrificio de Dios
para el hombre. -San Juan Vianney
