A VISIBLE GOD We find it difficult to convey ideas to people unless we can actually show them something, demonstrate what we mean. God, who is invisible and truly beyond human understanding, apparently faces the same difficulty. People want to see, not just listen to an idea. So God gave us Jesus Christ, God made visible in the world. During these past weeks we have seen how Jesus was revealed as an infant to the shepherds and the magi, and then began his adult public life at his baptism by John. Today s Gospel reading tells us of his first sign, providing wine for the wedding guests at Cana. Of course, even Jesus, God made visible, was not always easily understood in his own day, nor is he even now. So we have to ponder what we see: the poverty and simplicity of his birth, his humility and openness before John the Baptist, his kindness and compassion toward people in their ordinary problems, such as running short of wine at a wedding. Yet it is in coming to know Jesus that we come to know God. Copyright J. S. Paluch Co. TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE En 1502 el Fraile Nicolás de Ovando y doce franciscanos dieron inicio a la evangelización de América en la República Dominicana. Ellos fueron enviados por los reyes españoles con el mandato de convertir a los nativos sin les hacer fuerza alguna. Con los misioneros llegaron Alfonso y Antonio Trejo quienes traían con ellos un cuadro de la Virgen María bajo la advocación de Nuestra Señora de la Altagracia. Ellos la llevaron a Higuey, donde en 1572 se le construyó su primer santuario. Poco a poco esta pequeña imagen se convirtió en la Reina del corazón de los dominicanos. María observa dulcemente a su recién nacido quien yace sobres las pajas. Está coronada y lleva puesto un manto azul rociado de estrellas y un escapulario blanco. Lleva una aureola hecha de doce estrellas. En una esquina de la imagen san José también observa al niño por encima del hombro derecho de María. El 25 de enero del 1979 Juan Pablo II la coronó por ser la primera evangelizadora del continente Américano. Con ella los doce misioneros trajeron la Alta Gracia de Jesucristo a nuestras tierras. Did you Know? Where do kids go after school? You can help keep your children safe by knowing where they spend their time. Get to know the adults who show up at the various locations in the community where children gather and where they play together. Be wary of any adult who seems more interested in creating a relationship with a child than with other adults. Pay attention when an adult seems to single out a particular child for a relationship or for special attention. Warning signs include treats, gifts, vacations, or other special favors offered only to one specific child. For particular help, you may call Assistance Ministry at (213) 637-7650. Sabia Usted? Dónde Van los Niños Después de la Escuela? Usted puede ayudar a que sus niños estén seguros conociendo dónde pasan el tiempo. Conozca a los adultos que se presentan en los distintos lugares de la comunidad donde los niños se reúnen y juegan juntos. Sea cauteloso de cualquier adulto que parece estar más interesado en cultivar una relación con un niño particular que con otros adultos. Observe bien si un adulto parece favorecer a un niño particular o si le presta una atención especial. Las señales de alarma incluyen, trato especial, regalos, vacaciones u otros favores especiales dirigidos a un niño particular. Para obtener ayuda, llame a la Oficina del Ministerio de Asistencia al (213) 637-7650.

Together in Mission 2013 Love never fails. 1 Corinthians 13:8 Archbishop Gomez is sending a letter, within the next 2 weeks, to past contributors to the Together in Mission campaign. If you receive this letter, please respond with a generous pledge to support the ministries, programs and services provided by the parishes and schools that receive these funds. On the weekend of January 26-27, we will provide additional information about this campaign that provides funds to 35 parishes and 52 schools that would find it difficult if not impossible, to operate without them. On the weekends of February 2-3 and February 9-10, we will conduct the in-pew solicitation process so that those who do not receive the mailing will have an opportunity to make their pledges. As each parish household prayerfully reflects on the amount of the pledge to be made to help these parishes and schools, please reflect on the following questions. 1. Do I really believe that I have a duty to help others who are in need? 2. Is what I give to the work of the Church enough to show how grateful I am for what God has given me? 3. Do I appreciate how important every contribution to Together in Mission is to the people in the subsidized parishes and schools? Please pray for the guidance of the Holy Spirit as you consider the above questions and give generously, according to what God has given to you. Unidos en Misión 2013 El amor no falla nunca. 1 Corintios 13:8 El Arzobispo Gómez enviara en las próximas semanas una carta a quienes han contribuido anteriormente a la Campana Unidos en Misión. Si usted recibe esta carta, por favor responda con una contribución generosa en apoyo a los ministerios, programas y servicios prestados por las parroquias y escuelas que reciben estos fondos. El fin de semana del 26-27 de enero estaremos proporcionando información adicional acerca de esta campana que provee los fondos para 35 parroquias y 52 escuelas para las que seria muy difícil, sino imposible, operar sin dichos fondos. Los fines de semanas del 2-3 y 9-10 de febrero realizaremos la solicitud en la parroquia para que, quienes no recibieron la carta, tengan la oportunidad de prometer su contribución. Cuando cada familia reflexione en oración sobre la cantidad del compromiso económico que hara para ayudar a estas parroquias y escuelas, por favor pregúntense lo siguiente: 1. Creo yo realmente que tengo el deber de ayudar a los que están necesidades? 2. Sera suficiente lo que doy para la obra de la Iglesia para mostrar todo lo agradecido que estoy por lo que Dios me ha dado? 3. Estoy consciente de que tan importante es cada contribución a Unidos en Misión para la gente en las parroquias y escuelas subsidiadas? Por favor ore para que el Espíritu Santo le guie al reflexionar sobre las anteriores preguntas y de generosamente como Dios le ha dado a usted.
