 January 9, 2011 † The Baptism of the Lord
Meditando La Palabra
Conmemoramos hoy el bautismo de Jesús en el río Jordán.
Podríamos pasar el tiempo preguntándonos si Jesús necesi-
taba ser bautizado, o ponernos toda clase de preguntas
complicadas sobre la identidad de Jesús y la conciencia que
tenía de ella… Esas preguntas pueden ser importantes e
interesantes; pero aquí será mejor centrar nuestra aten-
ción en otro aspecto de la celebración de hoy: el bautismo
de Jesús nos da un ejemplo y nos recuerda nuestro propio
bautismo y nuestra propia vocación.
El bautismo de Jesús en el río Jordán confirma y manifiesta
su misión y su identidad: Él es el «Hijo amado» del Padre.
¿No es esa también la identidad y misión que recibimos en
nuestro bautismo? También nosotros somos hijos e hijas
amados de nuestro Padre del cielo: en virtud de la muerte
y la resurrección de Jesucristo, pasamos del pecado a la
gracia, de la muerte a la vida. No estamos ya separados del
Padre que nos ama, sino que estamos llamados a experi-
mentar su favor misericordioso; a experimentar en nues-
tros corazones y en nuestras vidas la paz que el mundo no
pude dar ni quitar.
Por nuestro bautismo, estamos llamados a compartir y
continuar la misión de Jesús. Como Jesús fue un «siervo»,
también nosotros debemos ser «siervos», servidores, del
Señor. Escuchamos en la primera lectura la presentación
que hace Isaías de la ‘misión’ del Siervo de Yahveh: «Miren
a mi siervo, a quien sostengo; a mi elegido, en quien tengo mis
complacencias… Promoverá con firmeza la justicia… para que
abras los ojos de los ciegos, saques a los cautivos de la prisión y
de la mazmorra a los que habitan en tinieblas» (Is 42, 1-7).
Puede ser que en nuestras vidas no hagamos grandes co-
sas; pero sí podemos hacer el bien. Podemos trabajar co-
menzando por nuestra familia y nuestra comunidad local.
Podemos ayudar a otros a quitar la ceguera de la ignoran-
cia y del prejuicio. Podemos comprometernos, en diversas
formas, con las necesidades de quienes viven y se mueven
cerca de nosotros.
Ojalá que en este día, en que celebramos el bautismo del
Señor, que es modelo de nuestro bautismo, nos esforce-
mos por seguirlo más de cerca, conocerlo con más clari-
dad y amarlo más… Que los demás puedan ver en nues-
tras vidas que somos «servidores», como él lo fue. Que
los demás puedan ver en nosotros que al igual que Cristo
somos también signo de luz, signo de servicio, signo de
libertad, y revelación del amor de Dios hacia los demás.
Pbro. Mario A. Juárez
Meditating on the Word
Today we commemorate Jesus' baptism in the Jor-
dan River. We could spend the time wondering if
Jesus needed to be baptized, or get all sorts of tricky
questions about the identity of Jesus and his aware-
ness of it ... These questions can be important and
interesting, but here it would be better to focus our
attention on another aspect today's celebration: the
baptism of Jesus gives us an example and we remem-
ber our own baptism and our own vocation.
Jesus' baptism in the Jordan confirms and states its
mission and identity: He is the beloved Son of the
Father. Is that not also the identity and mission that
we receive in our baptism? Also we are beloved
sons and daughters of our Father in heaven, under
the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, we turn
from sin to grace, from death to life. We are no
longer separated from the Father who loves us, but
we are called to experience the gracious favor, to
experience in our hearts and peace in our lives that
the world could not give nor take away.
By our baptism, we are called to share and continue
the mission of Jesus. As Jesus was a "servant", we
too must be "servants" servants of the Lord. We
heard the first reading of Isaiah's presentation of the
'mission' of the Servant of Yahweh: “Here is my ser-
vant whom I uphold, my chosen one with whom I am
pleased ... He shall bring forth justice ... to open eyes that
are blind, to free captives from prison and to release
from the dungeon those who live in darkness”,
Isaiah 42;1-7)
Maybe in our lives we do not do great things, but we
can do good. We can start with our family and our
local community by helping others remove the blind-
ness of ignorance and prejudice. We should become
more aware of the needs of those in our lives and
bring them closer to us.
Hopefully, on this day when we celebrate the Bap-
tism of the Lord, a model of our baptism, we will
strive to follow Him more closely, to know Him mo-
re clearly and love Him more dearly ... Then others
can see in our lives that we are "servants", as He
was. Others can see in us that, like Christ, we are
also a sign of light, sign of service, sign of freedom,
and revelation of God's love to others.

PARISH MEN’S RETREAT
January 28th – 30th 2011
Last Reminder! There are still openings for our
annual retreat. The men of our parish will make
their annual retreat In Sierra Madre at the Mater
Dolorosa retreat house. In the quiet setting of the
San Gabriel foothills, the Passionist staff will guide
you to a renewal for your faith and a new perspec-
tive on your life. The Center provides a private
room and bath, (double rooms are available on re-
quest). Delicious meals, beautifully landscaped
grounds, outdoor Stations of the Cross, altogether
lend themselves to the spiritual benefits of this silent,
preached retreat. Don’t miss this chance to renew
yourself spiritually.
A non-refundable deposit of $50 is all it takes
to complete your registration. The total re-
quested donation for the retreat is $180 including
the deposit, but no one is ever turned away for
lack of funds. A deposit can be by check made out
to Mater Dolorosa or by MasterCard or Visa credit
card. You can’t afford not to join us. Pamphlets are
in the display case outside of church. To register
call Conrad Esser on 361-9813, Tom Phelan
on 218-5270 or Greg Wise on 240-1080. VI

SOCIETY OF ST. VINCENT DE PAUL

On April 23, 1833, Frederic Ozanam's 20th

birthday, six students attending the Sorbonne
(the University of Paris), including Frederic,
gathered in the publisher's office of La Tribune Ca-
tholique. Ozanam's words moved all present: "We must
do what our Lord Jesus Christ did when preaching the
gospel. Let us go to the poor!" And so the Society of St.
Vincent de Paul was born. Join us at our next meeting as
we "go to the poor" Tuesday, January 18th at 7:00
