Lorenzo Gamboa DOM / SUN Dear Faithful of St. Mark, Gospel Mk. 1, 7-11 Today is the last Sunday of Christmas Time. And after having celebrated the Epiphany of the Lord and the coming of the three wise men, today once more, God manifests Himself in the baptism of Our Lord Jesus Christ. “On coming up out of the water he saw the heavens being torn open and the Spirit, like a dove, descending upon him. And a voice came from the heavens, “You are my beloved Son; with you I am well pleased.” Let me share with you from the sermon of Saint Proclus, bishop of Constantinople about the baptism of the Lord in the sermon 7 in sancta Theophania, 1-3: PG 65, 758-759. “For on this day land and sea share between them the grace of the Savior, and the whole world is filled with joy. Today’s feast of the Epiphany manifests even more wonders than the feast of Christmas. On the feast of the Savior’s birth, the earth rejoiced because it bore the Lord in a manger; but on today’s feast of the Epiphany it is the sea that is glad and leaps for joy; the sea is glad because it receives the blessing of holiness in the river Jordan. At Christmas we saw a weak baby, giving proof of our weakness. In today’s feast, we see a perfect man, hinting at the perfect Son who proceeds from the all-perfect Father. At Christmas the King puts on the royal robe of his body; at Epiphany the very source enfolds and, as it were, clothes the river. Come then and see new and astounding miracles: the Sun of righteousness washing in the Jordan, fire immersed in water, God sanctified by the ministry of man. Today every creature shouts in resounding song: Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. Blessed is he who comes in every age, for this is not his first coming.” Also, I cannot let the opportunity go without acknowledging our angels who made possible that many families in Saint Mark had a Christmas filled with blessings. My most heartfelt gratitude goes to the following parishes and institutions: St. John of the Cross, Our Lady of the Wayside and book fair captains Cheryl Demeter, Emily Paine, Jane Stryzyzynski, St. Timothy, St. Maria Goretti, St. Helen, Jewel Osco (Luigi) and to all the people who donated food for our food pantry. A millions thanks and a Happy New Year. Queridos Fieles San Marcos: NOV 23, de 2014 Evangelio Mc 1, 7-11 Hoy es nuestro último domingo en el tiempo de Navidad. Y después de haber celebrado la epifanía del Señor y la venida de los Reyes Magos, hoy nuevamente Dios se manifiesta en el bautismo de Nuestro Señor Jesucristo. “Al salir Jesús del agua, vio que los cielos se rasgaban y que el Espíritu, en figura de paloma, descendía sobre él. Se oyó entonces una voz del cielo que decía: “Tú eres mi Hijo amado; yo tengo en ti mis complacencias”. Les comparto del Sermón de San Proclo, Obispo de Constantinopla sobre el bautismo del Señor en el Sermón 7 en la santa Teofanía, 1-3: PG 65, 758-759. “Y así, hoy, tierra y mar se han repartido entre sí la gracia del Salvador, y el universo entero se halla bañado en alegría; hoy es precisamente el día que añade prodigios mayores y más crecidos a los de la precedente solemnidad. Pues en la solemnidad anterior, que era la del nacimiento del Salvador, se alegraba la tierra, porque sostenía al Señor en el pesebre; en la presente festividad, en cambio, que es la de las Teofanías, el mar es quien salta y se estremece de júbilo; y lo hace porque en medio del Jordán encontró la bendición santificadora. En la solemnidad anterior se nos mostraba un niño débil, que atestiguaba nuestra propia imperfección; en cambio, en la festividad de hoy se nos presenta ya como un hombre perfecto, mostrando que procede, como perfecto que es, de quien también lo es. En aquel caso, el Rey vestía la púrpura de su cuerpo; en éste, la fuente rodea como recubre al río. Atended, pues, a estos nuevos y estupendos prodigios. El Sol de justicia que se purifica en el Jordán, el fuego sumergido en el agua, Dios santificado por ministerio de un hombre. Hoy la creación entera resuena de himnos: Bendito el que viene en nombre del Señor. Bendito el que viene en todo momento: pues no es ahora la primera vez.” También no puedo dejar pasar la oportunidad sin reconocer a nuestros ángeles que hicieron posible que muchas familias de San Marcos tuvieran una navidad llena de bendiciones. Mi más profundo agradecimiento es para las siguientes parroquias e instituciones: San Juan de la Cruz, Nuestra Señora del Camino y sus capitanes de la feria del libro Cheryl Demeter, Emily Paine, Jane Strzyzynski, San Timoteo, Santa María Goretti, Santa Helena, Jewel Osco (Luigi) y a todas las personas que nos regalaron alimentos para nuestro depósito de comida. Un millón de gracias. Feliz Año Nuevo. Page Three January 11, 2015 MASS INTENTIONS Sunday, January 11 9:00AM †Víctor Vázquez Oremos por los enfermos… Please pray for the sick ...
