Page 3 World Marriage Day Sunday, February 8th Today is World Marriage Day which honors husband and wife as head of the family, the basic unit of society. It salutes the beauty of their faithfulness, sacrifice and joy in daily, married life. Today’s bulletin highlights some resource that exist for couples preparing for marriage, those who are already married, and those seeking help in their marriages. In April, the Holy Father spoke beautifully about the Sacrament of Marriage saying, "We were created to love, as a reflection of God and his love. And in matrimonial union the man and woman realize this vocation, as a sign of reciprocity and the full and definitive communion of life". When a man and a woman receive the Sacrament of marriage, "God is, so to say, 'mirrored' in them, he imprints in them the features and indelible nature of His love. Marriage is the icon of God's love for us” (Vatican City. April 2, 2014). As Catholics we celebrate, and give thanks to God for, the gift and vocation of marriage. -Fr. Brendan Prayer for Our Marriage Heavenly Father, we thank You for your tremendous gift of the Sacrament of Marriage. Enable us to grow in our intimacy with You and with each other. Teach us the beauty of forgiveness so we may become more and more one in heart, mind and body. Strengthen our communication with each other, and help us become living signs of your love. Help us to be examples of commitment, love and service to our families and children. Make us a sign of the unity which Jesus prays for at the Last Supper. We open ourselves to the guidance of your Holy Spirit, who empowers us to love in Jesus’ name and walk in His footsteps. Amen. Día Mundial del Matrimonio Domingo, 8 de febrero Hoy es el Día Mundial del Matrimonio que honra a marido y mujer como cabeza de la familia, la unidad básica de la sociedad. Rinde homenaje a la belleza de su fidelidad, sacrificio y alegría en la vida conyugal diaria. El boletín de hoy pone de relieve algunos de los recursos que existen para parejas que se preparan para el matrimonio, los que ya están casados, y los que buscan ayuda en sus matrimonios. En abril, el Santo Padre habló sobre el sacramento del matrimonio diciendo: "Hemos sido creados para amar, como un reflejo de Dios y de su amor. Y en unión matrimonial del hom bre y la mujer se dan cuenta de esta vocación, como un signo de la reciprocidad y la comunión plena y definitiva de la vida". Cuando un hombre y una mujer reciben el sacramento del matrimonio, "Dios es, por así decir," se refleja "en ellos, imprime en ellos las características y naturaleza indeleble de su amor. El matrimonio es el icono del amor de Dios por nosotros" (Ciudad del Vaticano. 02 de abril 2014). Como católicos celebramos y damos gracias a Dios por el don y vocación del matrimonio. -Padre Brendan Oración por nuestro matrimonio Padre Celestial, te damos gracias por el tremendo don del sacramento del matrimonio. Que nos permitirá crecer en nuestra intimidad contigo y con los demás. Enséñanos la belleza del perdón para que podamos llegar a ser cada vez más y más un solo corazón, una sola mente y un solo cuerpo. Fortalecer nuestra comunicación con los demás, y nos ayudan a ser signos vivos de tu amor. Ayúdanos a ser ejemplos de compromiso, amor y servicio a nuestras familias y niños. Haznos un signo de la unidad que Jesús ora por en la Última Cena. Nos abrimos a la guía de su Espíritu Santo, que nos capacita para amar en el nombre de Jesús y caminar en sus pasos. Amén. Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time Page 4 Dispelling Myths About Divorce How does the Church view divorce? The Church believes that God, the author of marriage, established it as a permanent union. When two people marry, they form an unbreakable bond. Jesus himself taught that marriage is permanent (Matthew 19:36), and St. Paul reinforced this teaching (see 1 Cor 7:10-11 and Eph 5:31-32). The Church does not recognize a civil divorce because the State cannot dissolve what is indissoluble. See Catechism of the Catholic Church, #2382-2386. Are divorced people excommunicated from the Catholic Church? No. Divorced people are full members of the Church and are encouraged to participate in its activities. May a divorced Catholic receive Holy Communion? Yes. Divorced Catholics in good standing with the Church, who have not remarried or who have remarried following an annulment, may receive the sacraments. What support does the Church offer to divorced persons? The Church understands the pain of those caught in this situation. When divorce is the only possible recourse, the Church offers her support to those involved and encourages them to remain close to the Lord through frequent reception of the Sacraments, especially the Holy Eucharist. (United States Catholic Catechism for Adults, p. 287). Many dioceses offer programs and support groups for divorced and separated persons. Catholic Divorce Ministry, The Beginning Experience, and Journey of Hope are helpful resources. Lo que dice la Iglesia el divorcio La Iglesia cree que Dios, el autor del matrimonio, lo estableció como una unión permanente. Cuando dos personas se casan, forman un vínculo inquebrantable. Jesús mismo enseñó que el matrimonio es permanente (Mateo 19: 3-6), y San Pablo reforzó esta enseñanza (ver 1 Cor 7: 10-11 y Efesios 5: 31-32). La Iglesia no reconoce el divorcio civil, pues el Estado no puede disolver lo que es indisoluble. Ver Catecismo de la Iglesia Católica, # 2382-2386. Las personas divorciadas son excomulgadas de la Iglesia Católica? No. Personas divorciadas son miembros plenos de la Iglesia y se les anima a participar en sus actividades. ¿Puede un católico divorciado recibir la Sagrada Comunión? Sí. Los católicos divorciados en buenos términos con la Iglesia, que se han vuelto a casar o que se han vuelto a casar después de una anulación, ellos si puede recibir los sacramentos. ¿Qué ayuda ofrece la Iglesia a los divorciados? La Iglesia entiende el dolor de los que están atrapados en esta situación. Cuando el divorcio es el único recurso posible, la Iglesia ofrece su apoyo a los afectados y les anima a permanecer cerca del Señor a través de la recepción frecuente de los sacramentos, especialmente la Eucaristía. (El Catecismo Católico para Adultos de Estados Unidos, p. 287). Muchas diócesis que ofrecen programas y grupos de apoyo para personas divorciadas y separadas. Ministerio Católico de Divorcios, La Experiencia Inicial, y El Camino de la Esperanza son recursos útiles en estos casos. February 8, 2015 Page 5 Welcome to Ministry Spotlight. Here’s where you’ll learn about the good work our ministries are doing and how you can join them. Stop by our table in front of the tent after Mass. † Marriage Enrichment † Marriage Preparation † Marriage Encounter † Retrouvaille Marriage Enrichment Ministry Marriage, a sacrament of the Church, needs the sustaining grace of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Living a faith-based marriage in the modern world can be a difficult challenge. To be open to receiving God’s grace, married couples can benefit from a proactive and ongoing investment in their relationship. Our marriage enrichment experience, called “Living Catholic Marriage,” is an experience of liketo-like ministry: couples encouraging other couples by their shared experience of living their marriage in faith. Marriage Enrichment offers a time and space for couples to focus on each other and gather with other couples. Topics include communication in marriage, living our Catholic faith, and meeting the challenges from being married and raising a family in the modern world. Each topic is intended to affirm the ways we enrich our marriage and help us to improve where we can do better. Our evenings provide safe opportunities for couples to grow in their love for each other and increase joy in their marriage. Husbands and wives of all ages and years married are welcome. Marriage Enrichment meets monthly on the first Thursday, 7:30 – 9:00 pm in the Parish Room of St. Edward the Confessor School. To verify the next meeting, see the church bulletin or simply contact Joe & Rosemary Sinacori (949) 496-3478 jpsinacori@cox.net or Bob & Mary Dausch (949) 4811102 dauschr@cox.net Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time Marriage Preparation Ministry Remember the day you decided to get married? What a joyful day! Suddenly you were engaged to be married and your love for each other took on a whole new meaning. When you realized that your whole life was about to change, the Catholic Church was there to help you get prepared. You probably met with your parish priest and with married couples because of the importance of your marriage to your future happiness and to the life of the Church. The engaged couples of today need that same guidance. The culture we live in has changed a lot in recent years, and living Catholic values for marriage and family are becoming increasingly counter-cultural. Engaged couples of today need to hear what the Catholic Church teaches about sacramental marriage and family because what we offer is the best way to have a life-long marriage of happiness and fulfillment. That's where you come in. You can help engaged couples from our parish by participating in a workshop that we offer for marriage preparation. To participate in this ministry, you do not need to have a perfect marriage – because no one does. You do need to be married in the Catholic Church, actively living your Catholic faith as a couple, and be willing to share your marriage for the good of others. Three workshops are scheduled for 2015. If you are a married couple who would like to help the engaged couples of today, please call Bob & Mary Dausch at 481-1102.

Mythbusting: Comprehensive Immigration Reform Myth: Undocumented immigrants are burden on the U.S. healthcare system. Fact: Federal, state and local governments spend approximately $1.1 billion annually on healthcare costs of undocumented immigrates, aged 18-64, compared to $88 billion spent on all health care for non-elderly adults in the U.S. in 2000.
