Parish Pastoral Council Nominations and Election Process – My great gratitude to all those who have submit-
ted nominations of parishioners to serve on our parish Pastoral Council. We will now be contacting each nom-
inated parishioner, as to whether they would accept the nomination. Those accepting will be asked to submit
a brief bio for use in the election process, where the parishioners will be able to review each candidate and
inform their consideration of those for whom they would vote for a seat on the Council. Note that the election
process will begin on February 20 and then conclude on February 28, 2021.

The Council is the principal advisory body for me as pastor, with the following objectives: 1. pastoral strategic
planning and goal setting; 2. development and implementation processes for pastoral programs; 3. the im-
proving parish pastoral services; and 4. the evaluation of parish pastoral effectiveness. The Council meets on
a monthly basis with me and since March 2020, all of our meetings have been held virtually. Members serve a
term of 2 years, with terms staggered to facilitate continuity in council membership and memory.

                  Stewardship in Offering and the 2021 Bishop’s Annual Appeal – Mindful of our call as disci-
                  ples of Our Lord by being stewards in prayer, ministry and offering, the later always invites
                  not only to renew our commitments to our parish mission, but also our support to the mission
                  of our Diocese, which we do each year through the Bishop’s Annual Appeal (BAA). The
                  BAA supports over 40 ministries, from our work with those most in need through Catholic
                  Charities, to the formation of those who would lead us as priests in the spiritual and pastoral
                  life. Join me in welcoming this weekend our Cathedral parishioner and seminarian for our
                  Diocese, Mr. Nick Rapkoch, and on next weekend, February 13th/14 th, Mr. Barkley Sample,
                  Regional Director of Catholic Charities, as they speak briefly to us on their ministry and the
                  invitation to prayerfully consider including the BAA among your annual charitable giving.

Blessing of Married Couples Next Weekend – As we observe the days honoring Saint Valentine next weekend,
my brother priests and I here at Cathedral looking forward to extending a special blessing at Mass over each
of you living the beautiful vocation of faithful, dedicated married love. Thank you for your witness in saying yes
to one another and being a icon into God’s love!

Beginning Lent 2021 with Ash Wednesday – As we begin Lent 2021 on February 17th with Ash Wednesday, part
of our devotion is to receive ashes, obtained from the burning of palms branches from a previous observance
of Palm Sunday. Given the current continuing days of precaution, the Holy See has provided direction for the
reception of ashes this year, which Bishop Zarama has asked to be implemented within our Diocese. These
follow what has been the custom for reception of ashes in Catholic parishes, missions and other institutions
throughout Europe for many years, namely that as the minister states the admonition, “Remember you are
dust and unto dust you shall return” or “Turn away from sin and be faithful to the Gospel,” the minister then
sprinkles a small amount of ashes upon the top of the head of the member of the faithful as they come for-
ward.

Agreement with McLaurin Parking – You may recall that prior to these days of precautions, we were in conver-
sation with McLaurin Parking regarding their administration of the outer portions of our Cathedral parking lots
during the weekdays, as these have been heavily used by construction company employees doing work on
the new structures on the NCSU Centennial Campus, as well as being used by some undergraduate/graduate
students for parking. I am glad to update you that we have reached an agreement with McLaurin for the ad-
ministration of these parking spaces during the weekdays, in consultation and endorsement by our Parish Pas-
toral Council our Parish Finance Council and having been reviewed by our Diocesan counsel. The signage
installation and beginning oversight for these outer lot spaces began this last week. Note that the agreement
will provide allowances for when we have large parish or Diocesan events during the weekdays and thus
need the parking spaces for ourselves. Additionally, the funds received will be directed towards the construc-
tion costs for our new Parish Center – update on this greatly needed project very soon, as our parish Building
Committee is working hard!

                                                               Do you know a holy person? I’m not talking about
                                                               piety — that’s important, too, in its own way. But right

                                                               St. Therese of Lisieux called holiness “a disposition of

Mass, reminding us that we have been entrusted
with a gift — the Word of God and the Presence
of Christ in the sacrament — and that we are to
share that gift with others.
If we simply leave after we receive communion,
we risk two things. First, there is the possibility that
we will turn our reception of communion into a
purely personal, individual experience that is sep-
arated from our common experience of worship
— and communion in the fullest sense — and, sec-
ond, we lose an opportunity for gratitude and seri-

Quinto Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario | 7 de febrero del 2021

                                 MEDITACIÓN EVANGÉLICO
Quizá ha tenido la experiencia de ser ministro de Eucaristía y llevar la comunión a los enfermos en su casa.
Ha visto el dolor de cerca y su deseo es darles la mano y que se levanten de su lecho. Sí, ahora nos duele el
no poder llevar la comunión por razón de la pandemia, aún existen muchas restricciones. Sin embargo, el
Evangelio narra cómo Jesús visita a la suegra de Pedro que estaba enferma. Jesús le da la mano, la cura y
ella se levanta y se dice que de inmediato se puso a servir. Claramente, se ve que enfermos no podemos
hacer ministerio. Sanar, para servir.

“Jesús se presenta públicamente como alguien que lucha contra la enfermedad y que vino para sa-
nar al hombre de todo mal: el mal del espíritu y el mal del cuerpo. Es de verdad conmovedora la es-
cena evangélica a la que acaba de hacer referencia el Evangelio de san Marcos. Dice así: Si pienso
en las grandes ciudades contemporáneas, me pregunto dónde están las puertas ante las cuales llevar
a los enfermos para que sean curados. Jesús nunca se negó a curarlos. Nunca siguió de largo, nunca
giró la cara hacia otro lado. Y cuando un padre o una madre, o incluso sencillamente personas ami-
gas le llevaban un enfermo para que lo tocase y lo curase, no se entretenía con otras cosas; la cura-
ción estaba antes que la ley, incluso una tan sagrada como el descanso del sábado”. (Extracto toma-
do de la Catequesis del Papa Francisco 10 de Junio de 2015). ¡Así era Jesús! ¿Tú cómo eres?      ©LPi
