Dear parishioners,
Next Sunday, February 15, will be “kickoff Sunday” for the diocese’s Annual Catholic Appeal (ACA). (From 2000 to
2013, it was called the Bishop’s Annual Appeal.) The ACA supports the pastoral activities of the Church of Trenton, which is one
of more than 3,000 local Churches (dioceses) that comprise the universal Church, the Mystical Body of Christ. I made a personal
pledge for last year’s appeal and will do so again this year. I ask that you please consider joining me in making a pledge, in whatever amount you can afford, even if it’s only five or ten dollars. Your participation will show Bishop O’Connell – the chief shepherd
of the Church of Trenton -- that you support his efforts to minister to the various needs of the people (Catholic and non-Catholic) in
the four counties of our diocese.
Last Sunday, I received an e-mail from a parishioner which said: “Dear Father Chang: Regarding your Pastor’s Message,
less trivia, fewer parentheses and a more spiritual message would be appreciated.” As I have said before, the Church does not mandate a pastor’s message in the weekly parish bulletin and therefore most parishes do not have a weekly pastor’s message in their
bulletin. The purpose of the parish bulletin is to share information with the parishioners about liturgical and non-liturgical activities
in the parish. (Some parishes have a four- or six-page bulletin. Our parish has a twelve-page bulletin, the cost of which is completely covered by the ad payments that the bulletin vendor receives from the businesses that generously advertise in our bulletin.) Some
pastors do choose to add a pastor’s message, even though it is not required. As pastor, I enjoy taking the time to write a weekly
message, because I want to share additional information with you (even though I am not required to) -- about your parish, your diocese, the universal Church, and secular matters. As you can see, I do like trivia and I also love history. If you do not like trivia or
the other contents of my weekly message, you are not required to read it. You can choose to skip page 3 and read only page 2 and
pages 4 through 10 (plus the ads on pages 11 and 12). If you are looking for a weekly spiritual message (in addition to the homily at
Mass), there are Catholic websites that will send you a weekly (or daily) spiritual message via e-mail. One such website is AmericanCatholic.org, which has various e-newsletters they can send you (for free), including “Minute Meditations” (daily) and “Saint of
the Day” (daily). The website is operated by the Province of St. John the Baptist (headquartered in Cincinnati) of the Order of Friars
Minor (O.F.M. Franciscans). That province is the publisher of St. Anthony Messenger magazine.
A parishioner asked me if we will be sending a parish bus to the papal Mass in Philadelphia in September. I explained
to them that Philadelphia Archbishop Charles J. Chaput, O.F.M. Cap., has probably received requests for blocks of tickets to the
Mass from each of his fellow diocesan bishops of the other seven Latin Catholic dioceses and the two Eastern Catholic dioceses in
Pennsylvania (3,244,000 Catholics; 25% of the total population; as of August 2013), as well as those of the bordering states of Delaware (one diocese [including nine Maryland counties]; 240,000 Catholics; 18%), New Jersey (five Latin Catholic and two Eastern
Catholic dioceses; 3,761,000 Catholics; 42%), New York (eight Latin Catholic and two Eastern Catholic dioceses, plus an Eastern
Catholic exarchate; 7,111,000 Catholics; 35%), Ohio (six Latin Catholic and three Eastern Catholic dioceses; 1,964,000 Catholics;
17%), and Maryland (one diocese [consisting of only nine of the state’s 23 counties, plus the City of Baltimore]; 485,000 Catholics;
15%), plus the Archdiocese of Washington (District of Columbia and five Maryland counties; 630,000 Catholics; 22%). The combined Catholic population of the said thirty Latin Catholic dioceses is 17.4 million (out of a total population of 60.4 million). Even
though there will be a finite number of tickets for the papal Mass, many Catholics without tickets will still attend, just like the six or
seven million Catholics who went to the recent papal Mass in Manila (in the Philippines). In the January 25 bulletin (on page 9), our
youth minister stated that our parish’s LifeTeen youth group will begin raising funds for a possible trip to the papal Mass.
Today is World Marriage Day. Sponsored by Worldwide Marriage Encounter, the day “honors husband and wife as the
foundation of the family, the basic unit of society. It salutes the beauty of their faithfulness, sacrifice and joy in daily married life.”
This Wednesday, February 11, is the optional Memorial of Our Lady of Lourdes and the 23rd annual World Day of the
Sick. Our Lady of Lourdes, pray for our sick relatives, friends, and fellow parishioners, and for us.
God bless you.

The parish office will be closed on Monday, February 16, in observance of Presidents Day.
CONFESSIONS: The will be no confessions on Tuesday, February 17
(Mardi Gras celebration) and Wednesday, February 18 (Ash Wednesday). Please also note that confessions during Fridays of Lent will
start at approximately 8:15 pm, i.e, after the completion of the Stations
of the Cross.
MARDI GRAS
On Tuesday, February 17, the Christmas Carol Festival committee
will be hosting a Mardi Gras celebration. It will immediately follow the
7:00 pm Mass, in the All Purpose Room beneath St. Raphael Church.
Come and enjoy various desserts, music, and dancing before the start
of the Lenten season.
MASS DURING SNOWSTORMS
Our parish does not cancel Mass during a snowstorm, because the
priests’ residence (in the rectory, along with the parish office) is near
the church and a priest is able to walk through the snow to the church.
Many parishes follow the same policy. Some parishes do cancel Mass
due to snow or ice, but usually the priest’s residence in those parishes
is in a separate building that is not near the church (and therefore it
might be dangerous for the priest to attempt to drive to church). For the
same reason, it is not a sin if you miss Mass (on a Sunday or holy day
of obligation) when it is too dangerous to drive (e.g., snow or ice)--or
when you are sick (in which case your fellow parishioners would prefer
you stay home, so as to not share your germs…).
From Monday, December 1, through Sunday, April 5— Holy Communion is being distributed under only one species (the Sacred
Host) instead of both species (the Sacred Host and the Precious
Blood), because of the flu season. Under the principle of concomitance, we receive all of Jesus—Body, Blood, soul, and divinity, whole
and entire—under either species. Thus, we do not have to receive both
species at Communion.
HOLY NAME SOCIETY
The monthly meeting of the Holy Name Society will be held on
Wednesday, February 11, after the 7:00 pm Mass, in the parish center. There will be light refreshments afterward.
REDISCOVER the LOVE in YOUR MARRIAGE
The Retrouvaille Marriage Program offers help for struggling marriages.

but rather a way to rediscover and rekindle the loving relationship in
your marriage. The next program begins on the weekend of Friday,
February 13 to Sunday, February 15, at the Family Life Center in Malvern, PA. For more information, or to register for our upcoming weekend. Visit our website at: www.HelpOurMarriage.com or call 1-800-4702230. All inquiries are kept strictly confidential.

My dear parishioners:
I have been overwhelmed by the outpouring of love and concern I
have received from all over our Diocese, including your parish. I
have received over 10,000 cards, letters, emails, video messages, gifts and countless prayers during my hospitalization and ongoing recovery. I could not begin to respond to each one personally, as much as I wish I could. Your pastor has allowed me to
offer my heartfelt thanks in your parish bulletin. I am most grateful to you for your loving concern. The future looks good and I
hope to be back in public by Palm Sunday. My thankful prayers
are with you. God bless you.

IS GOD CALLING YOU?
Vocational discernment groups meet to assist young men who are
discerning the possibility that God may be calling them to a life of priestly ministry. These groups are designed to explore a priestly vocation
with other like-minded men through prayer and sharing vocation stories
and experiences. The group meetings are not meant to convince anyone that the priesthood is their vocation. They are designed to assist
you in discovering if the priesthood is your true vocation and build your
relationship with Christ along the way.
If you are a faithful, single, Roman Catholic man, between the ages of
18 and 40, and are asking yourself whether God is calling you to be a
priest, you are cordially invited to attend this month’s discernment meeting on Sunday, February 22, from 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm, at St. James
Parish, Pennington. Join Rev. Msgr. Michael J. Walsh, as he shares his
experiences of the priesthood, followed by prayer and conclude with
conversation and a meal. Please register with Diocese of Trenton Vocation Office at vocations@dioceseoftrenton.org or by calling 609-4067449. Join us at this exciting time as you discover and respond to His
invitation.
USHERS NEEDED
Our parish is in need of two permanent ushers for the 9:30 am Sunday Mass in
St. Raphael Church. Please consider this important ministry to our parish. If you
can help, please see the lead usher at the 9:30 am Mass, James Panacek, on
Sunday.
INTENTIONS of POPE FRANCIS for February
Universal: That prisoners, especially the young, may be able to rebuild their
lives with dignity.
For Evangelization: That married people who are separated may find welcome
and support in the Christian community.

Marriage: LOVE and LIFE in the DIVINE PLAN:
Parents-first evangelizers
“Not only do parents present their children for Baptism, but, having
done so, they become the first evangelizers and teachers of the faith.
They evangelize by teaching their children to pray and by praying with
them. They bring their children to Mass and teach them biblical stories. They show them how to obey God’s commandments and to live
a Christian life of holiness. ”Excerpt from the U.S. Bishops’ Pastoral
Letter entitled Marriage: Love and Life in the Divine Plan. To read
the document, go to http://www.usccb.org/loveandlife/.
Word of Life ~ February, 2015
“It is not only a personal but a social concern which we must all foster: a concern to make unconditional respect for human life the foundation of a renewed society.”

KINDERGARTEN
TECH
Kindergarten students recently learned how to create parabolic curves, using straight lines
in Microsoft's paint program. The lesson reinforced skills such as, logging on to Windows 8
Professional Touch Screen computers, launching the start button, and searching for the
“paint program.” After logon>start>paint, which the students opened, then the teacher provided the students with the templates for drawing the curve. After connecting the dots
properly, a curvy checker flag appears. The students then used the “paint bucket” tool to
complete the project with lively colors.

PRAYER for 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
FOOD PANTRY
Won’t you help us to help our neighbors by considering a donation of a
non-perishable food item each time that you come to Mass? In order to
boost the nutritional value of the food that we distribute, we are in particular need of low-salt soups and canned vegetable, water-packed fish,
low sugar cereals, fruit juice, canned fruits, dry and canned low salt
beans and natural peanut butter. Healthy snacks (nuts, granola bars,
etc.) are particularly needed. May God bless you for your generosity.

YR 10,WK 25, 5th Sunday in Ordinary Time
Leading Teens Closer To Christ!
Valentines Day for broken hearted.
“Praise The Lord Who Heals The Broken Hearted”, says the psalmist in this week’s readings. Good news
for us, as we prepare to leave the season of Ordinary Time (only ten days to go) to get ready for the Lenten
journey. Fresh from the secular bombardment of Valentines Day, and all that goes with it, we have been
manipulated to think of the heart on a purely romantic level. And, in so doing, we tend to think of love as a
purely romantic notion. Even the word “romance” has an odd connotation. Some define it as a relationship
that involves love between two people. Others as a quality or feeling of excitement and mystery that can be
associated with love, while still others talk of romance as a state that involves heroic and chivalric actions.
Rarely do we see or hear of romance without hearing of love. Love has been heralded throughout our history as the ultimate goal for individuals and societies. That being said, it is no wonder that in many ways, everyone can identify with “the broken heart syndrome”. Only in our scriptures do we hear of love as a selfless
act. “Greater love has no man than to lay down his life for another” or the radical commandment of Christ.
“It has been said that there is no greater commandment than to love the Lord your God...and your neighbor
as yourself...but I tell you love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you!” In this week’s readings, St. Paul tells us, he “has made himself a slave to all...to save some...for the sake of the gospel”. Job
states that he is filled with restlessness and questions whether “man’s life on earth is nothing more than a
drudgery?” Jobs fidelity is based upon the promise of the Lord. In this week’s gospel, Jesus is seen curing
the sick, healing the broken hearted, preaching the good news, expelling demons and proclaiming, “for this
purpose I have come”. The Church is a community of love. It continues the person and purpose of Christ in
space and time. While it remains imperfect, it’s a incarnate state. It remains inviolable, without spot and
wrinkle for Christ the Head of this mystical body. Let us prepare for our Lenten journey and join with St.
Augustine, proclaiming that our hearts are restless until they rest in Thee O Lord and join with Mother Theresa who reminds us to give God permission. Come into my heart, Jesus, and heal me of all that is not
of you so I better do your will.

HELP A TEEN (Grow, Eat, Learn, Be Formed, Have Fun, Meet the Pope)
The will be 2 major events that we would like to start fundraising for this year. For the summer
Steubenville Retreat in New York City, August 5-7, the approximate cost for a group of 30 teens
will be $8,000. For the trip to Philadelphia on September 22-25 to see the Holy Father, the approximate cost for a day trip for a group with 30 teens is to be determined, but initial estimates
suggest between $3,000 and $6,000.
Ways you can help...
Here are some ways you can help our parish’s LifeTeen youth ministry: Financially and anonymously adopt a teen. Send in fundraising ideas to the youth minister via e-mail or phone (609-456
-8857). You can donate transportation freely for the various trips or you can offset our weekly food
bill by contacting Nadine at 609-456-8862 to discuss donations, dishes, monetary aid or culinary
skills. There are so many ways you can help us as we continue to strive to lead teens closer to
Christ. Thanks ahead of time!

Dear Parishioners,
All choirs are now preparing for the Lenten and Easter season. We are preparing special programs, Taize ( a candle-lit service of spiritual song, prayer,
and readings around the cross) and Tenebrae (a service of darkness depicting
Christ’s passion and death) along with music for liturgies. If you are interested
in becoming a part of this ministry, please see the times and dates for rehearsals at the bottom of this page. If you have any questions, please call Lori at 609
-462-2929.
In today’s Gospel, the description of the “town” gathered outside Simon’s
door, indicates that this a small village or an out of the way place. Jesus is
going to the least of people in the least of places. As members of a music ministry, we are challenged to bring our song to people on the margins. For those
who can no longer raise their voices in song or play an instrument because of
illness or infirmity, may the song of the assembly be a source of comfort. We
pray: God, our comfort and consolation, bless us with your presence today.
Remain with us in the struggles of life and continue to strengthen us to serve.
Let our song of rejoicing go on. May our witness to the Gospel never waiver
when we face trials or suffering. Send your angels to watch over us,
God bless you,
Lori Hoos
