“There is considerable debate about whether the people whom Jesus
healed were really possessed by the devil or were mentally disturbed.
The debate is utterly beside the point. These individuals were deeply
troubled and Jesus healed them. Jesus came to heal both body and
soul. Most scripture scholars now agree that miracles were an important part of Jesus' ministry and of the memory of that ministry in the
early Church. We simply cannot abandon them to please those who
say miracles are impossible. The precise explanation of how these
healings were accomplished is another matter and perhaps one that is
also beside the point. Jesus did not work miracles to prove anything.
Rather they were signs that God's healing love is at work in the
world.”
Healing Mass and Anointing of the Sick
‘Over the centuries the Anointing of the sick was conferred
more and more exclusively on those at the point of death.
However, this sacrament is not only for those who are at the
point of death. It is also appropriate to receive the Sacrament
of Anointing of the Sick prior to a serious operation. Those who have a chronic
condition, or are becoming frail with old age, may receive Anointing of the Sick
on more than one occasion.’
The Holy Eucharist and the Anointing of the Sick will be celebrated on
the Feast of Our Lady of Lourdes on Wednesday, February 11th, 2015 at
7:00pm. Everyone is welcome!

IV DOMENICA DEL TEMPO ORDINARIO
Gesù inizia il suo ministero annunciando il vangelo del
regno di Dio (Mc 1,15). Si ha un regno quando c’è un
popolo governato da un’autorità sovrana che esercita il
suo potere per mezzo della legge. Dio è Santo ed esercita
il suo dominio per mezzo della potenza dello Spirito
Santo; la sua unica legge è l’amore. Vive nel regno di Dio
chi, nella libertà dell’amore, si sottomette all’azione potente del suo Spirito che “è Signore e dà la vita”. Adamo
ed Eva con il peccato si sono ribellati a Dio sottraendosi
alla sua sovranità, ed a causa loro tutti gli uomini sono
stati costituiti peccatori (Rm 5,12) per cui “giacciono
sotto il potere del Maligno” (1Gv 5,15), il quale regna
sull’uomo con la forza della menzogna e con la legge del peccato. Gesù Cristo,
nuovo Adamo, sottomesso al Padre con una obbedienza spinta fino alla morte di
croce (Fil 2,8), ripieno di Spirito Santo e rivestito di potenza dall’alto al battesimo
del Giordano, inizia la sua missione instaurando il regno di Dio con autorità. I
demoni si sottomettono a lui, manifestando così che il loro potere sull’uomo ormai volge al termine e che il regno di Dio è entrato nel mondo. La parola di Gesù,
al contrario di quella degli altri maestri del tempo, non tende a diffondere delle
opinioni dottrinali, chiama invece gli uomini all’obbedienza a lui (1Pt 1,2) per
mezzo della fede(cf. Rm 1,5; 6,16-17), la pratica dei suoi comandamenti(Gv
14,21) e la guida del suo Santo Spirito. Oggi è compito della Chiesa, cioè di ogni
cristiano, far arrivare il regno di Dio ad ogni uomo su questa terra.
