Dear Friends,
I want to share with you this final section of Pope Francis’ message for Lent as it
pushes us out to share the love of God that has been poured in to our hearts. And this season is one in which God’s grace is ever present to inspire us in this regard as we seek to
walk with Him more closely.
3. The works of Mercy: God’s mer cy tr ansfor ms human hear ts; it enables us,
through the experience of a faithful love, to become merciful in turn. In an ever new miracle, divine mercy shines forth in our lives, inspiring each of us to love our neighbour and
to devote ourselves to what the Church’s tradition calls the spiritual and corporal works of
mercy. These works remind us that faith finds expression in concrete everyday actions
meant to help our neighbours in body and spirit: by feeding, visiting, comforting and instructing them. On such things will we be judged. For this reason, I expressed my hope
that “the Christian people may reflect on the corporal and spiritual works of mercy; this
will be a way to reawaken our conscience, too often grown dull in the face of poverty, and
to enter more deeply into the heart of the Gospel where the poor have a special experience
of God’s mercy” (ibid., 15). For in the poor, the flesh of Christ “becomes visible in the
flesh of the tortured, the crushed, the scourged, the malnourished, and the exiled… to be
acknowledged, touched, and cared for by us” (ibid.). It is the unprecedented and scandalous mystery of the extension in time of the suffering of the Innocent Lamb, the burning
bush of gratuitous love. Before this love, we can, like Moses, take off our sandals (cf. Ex
3:5), especially when the poor are our brothers or sisters in Christ who are suffering for
their faith.
In the light of this love, which is strong as death (cf. Song 8:6), the real poor are
revealed as those who refuse to see themselves as such. They consider themselves rich,
but they are actually the poorest of the poor. This is because they are slaves to sin, which
leads them to use wealth and power not for the service of God and others, but to stifle
within their hearts the profound sense that they too are only poor beggars. The greater
their power and wealth, the more this blindness and deception can grow. It can even reach
the point of being blind to Lazarus begging at their doorstep (cf. Lk 16:20-21). Lazarus,
the poor man, is a figure of Christ, who through the poor pleads for our conversion. As
such, he represents the possibility of conversion which God offers us and which we may
well fail to see. Such blindness is often accompanied by the proud illusion of our own
omnipotence, which reflects in a sinister way the diabolical “you will be like God” (Gen
3:5) which is the root of all sin. This illusion can likewise take social and political forms,
as shown by the totalitarian systems of the twentieth century, and, in our own day, by the
ideologies of monopolizing thought and technoscience, which would make God irrelevant
and reduce man to raw material to be exploited. This illusion can also be seen in the sinful
structures linked to a model of false development based on the idolatry of money, which
leads to lack of concern for the fate of the poor on the part of wealthier individuals and
societies; they close their doors, refusing even to see the poor.
For all of us, then, the season of Lent in this Jubilee Year is a favourable time to overcome our existential alienation by listening to God’s word and by practising the works of
mercy. In the corporal works of mercy we touch the flesh of Christ in our brothers and
sisters who need to be fed, clothed, sheltered, visited; in the spiritual works of mercy –
counsel, instruction, forgiveness, admonishment and prayer – we touch more directly our
own sinfulness. The corporal and spiritual works of mercy must never be separated. By
touching the flesh of the crucified Jesus in the suffering, sinners can receive the gift of
realizing that they too are poor and in need. By taking this path, the “proud”, the
“powerful” and the “wealthy” spoken of in the Magnificat can also be embraced and undeservedly loved by the crucified Lord who died and rose for them. This love alone is the
answer to that yearning for infinite happiness and love that we think we can satisfy with
the idols of knowledge, power and riches. Yet the danger always remains that by a constant refusal to open the doors of their hearts to Christ who knocks on them in the poor,
the proud, rich and powerful will end up condemning themselves and plunging into the
eternal abyss of solitude which is Hell. The pointed words of Abraham apply to them and
to all of us: “They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them” (Lk 16:29). Such
attentive listening will best prepare us to celebrate the final victory over sin and death of
the Bridegroom, now risen, who desires to purify his Betrothed in expectation of his coming.
Let us not waste this season of Lent, so favourable a time for conversion! We ask this
through the maternal intercession of the Virgin Mary, who, encountering the greatness of
God’s mercy freely bestowed upon her, was the first to acknowledge her lowliness (cf. Lk
1:48) and to call herself the Lord’s humble servant (cf. Lk 1:38).

The Spiritual Works of Mercy: Part II
Praise
Last week we began to look at The Spiritual Works of Mercy, which have long been a part of the Christian tradition, appearing in the works of theologians and spiritual writers throughout history. Just as Jesus
attended to the spiritual well-being of those he ministered to, these Spiritual Works of Mercy guide us to
"help our neighbor in their spiritual needs" (USCCA).
COMFORTING THE SORROWFUL: Be open to listening and comforting those who are dealing with grief. Even if
we aren't sure of the right words to say, our presence can make a big difference. Lend a listening ear to those going through
a tough time. Make a home cooked meal for a friend who is facing a difficult time. Write a letter or send a card to someone
who is suffering. A few moments of your day may make a lifetime of difference to someone who is going through a difficult
time.
FORGIVING INJURIES: Forgiving others is difficult at times because we do not have God's limitless mercy and compassion. But Jesus teaches us that we should forgive as God forgives, relying on him to help us show others the mercy of
God. Let go of grudges. Saying sorry is something we learn as kids, but how often do we really mean it? Forgiveness transforms hearts and lives. Participate in the Sacrament of Penance. Pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet.
BEARING WRONGS PATIENTLY: Do not be bitter about wrongs done against you. Place your hope in God so
that you can endure the troubles of this world and face them with a compassionate spirit. Frustrated with someone? Step
away from the situation, take a few deep breaths, pray the Our Father, asking God for patience.
PRAYING FOR THE LIVING AND THE DEAD: Prayer is one of the most powerful ways we can support others. Joining together in prayer for the living and the dead entrusts us all into God's care. Request a mass intention for a
friend or family member who is going through a tough time. Request a mass intention for a friend or family member who
has passed away. Keep your own book of prayer intentions, writing down the names of those who you are keeping in your
prayers. Ask a friend or family member if there is anything you can pray for them about. Through prayer, entrust your cares
and concerns for those around you to God. -On the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops website - USCCB Mercy in motion
During the season of Lent in the Scriptures we see
that Jesus is in the desert. The Church asks us to refrain from decorating our churches with flowers.
Please assist us in keeping sacred environment during this Lenten season by NOT bringing any flowers
to adorn the statues from Wednesday, February 10 –
Sunday, March 27th. Thank you for your assistance.

That we may take good care of creation–a
gift freely given–cultivating and protecting
it for future generations.
That opportunities may increase for dialogue and encounter between the Christian
faith and the peoples of Asia.
CẦU NGUYỆN
Lạy Chúa Giêsu, bị cám dỗ là thân phận của con người, nhưng thắng được cám dỗ là nhờ ơn của Chúa.Cuộc sống hôm
nay cho chúng con bao cám dỗ ngọt ngào, làm khuấy động những thèm khát nơi chúng con. Cám dỗ chiếm đoạt và sở
hữu. Cám dỗ thống trị bằng quyền uy hay tri thức. Cám dỗ sống buông thả theo bản năng tự nhiên. Cám dỗ nào cũng hứa
cho chúng con ít nhiều hoan lạc, nhưng thật ra lại làm chúng con nghèo nàn vì tự giam mình trong cái tôi ích kỷ. Xin cho
chúng con thắng được các cơn cám dỗ nhờ tỉnh thức và cầu nguyện, nhờ chay tịnh và làm chủ bản thân. Xin cho chúng
con dám lội ngược dòng với thế gian, để đi vào con đường hẹp của Chúa, con đường nghèo khó khiêm nhu, con đường hy
sinh phục vụ.

The Holy Father has called us to celebrate and live the great Jubilee of Mercy during
this year. To that end, Archbishop Sartain has invited two members of the Sisters of
Our Lady of Mercy to the Archdiocese for a week in Lent. They are from St. Faustina’s congregation, and their charism includes proclaiming the message of the infinite
mercy of God. The sisters will travel from parish to parish in the company of firstclass relics of St. Faustina and St. John Paul II, carrying the good news of mercy to
every corner of our Archdiocese.
The Archbishop’s hope is that every parishioner will take advantage of this opportunity to grow in holiness and mercy. Find full details and a separate flyer for each presentation at http://www.seattlearchdiocese.org/mercy/events.aspx.

SHARING GOD’S WORD
The First Sunday of Lent
“We cried to the Lord, the God of our ancestors, and the Lord head our cry and saw
our affliction, our toil and our oppression.” Deuteronomy 26: 1-11
Option for the Poor
We hear in Deuteronomy that God hears the cry of the poor. If God hears their cry,
how should we interact with those who are poor, oppressed and marginalized?
We are given the opportunity to meet and interact with the men who receive ARISE
shelter from our parish during the month of February.
Paul calls us to put our faith in God, trusting that in doing so, God will act. Jesus
shows us what that looks like by resisting temptation in the desert and living those 40
days in trust. W here in our lives are we called to trust God more implicitly this Lent?
Immanuel Prayer Ministry
Lent is here. Do you want to renew your relationship with Jesus during these 40 days? We
offer an opportunity for that.
Q: What is this ministry, and how do I ask for prayer?
A: This is a ministry of gifted and trained prayer ministers who want to walk with you
through your struggle or through your joy. All you need to do is come to the front of the
church after the 12:30 Mass on 2/28, wait a few minutes until the team sets up the chairs,
prays together, and starts the sacred music. Then, just let one of us know that you would
like us to pray with you. We know our Beautiful Savior Who is Always ready to listen and
demonstrate the great love He has for you. Let us help you strengthen your relationship
with Him. He is waiting for you.
