are at the midpoint of our Lenten journey of conversion. As always, God never gives up on us, especially those who have “fallen asleep” along the road to conversion. The most powerful stories of conversion are proclaimed during these final weeks of Lent. They have the power to shake us out of our sleep. Today’s Gospel story of the healing of the man born blind exposes the real blindness in the time of Christ—the blindness of the self-righteous religious leaders. In a few weeks, at the Easter Vigil, the Church will proclaim “Christ our Light” as the paschal candle is carried into darkened churches throughout the world. May the darkness of sin that still pervades our lives, communities, and world, be dispelled by the Christ who comes to bring sight to the blind and light to the world. © Copyright, J. S. Paluch Co.
TODAY’S READINGS First Reading — As the prophet Samuel anointed David with oil, the spirit of the LORD rushed upon David and remained with him from that day forward (1 Samuel 16:1b, 6-7, 10-13a). Psalm — The Lord is my shepherd; there is nothing I shall want (Psalm 23). Second Reading — You who were once darkness are now light in the Lord. Live as children of light (Ephesians 5:8-14). Gospel — The man who was blind from birth proclaimed: The one called Jesus made clay with his saliva, anointed my eyes with it, and told me to wash. When I washed, I was able to see!

Review the Body Safety Rules that ‘Keep Kids Safe’
Revise las Reglas del Cuidado del Cuerpo que “Mantienen Seguro a los Pequeños”
April is national Child Abuse Prevention Month, and “Keep Kids Safe” month in the Archdiocese. This month, parents and guardians should review with their children and teens the “Five Body Safety Rules.” These rules will help them to protect themselves from the harm of child sexual abuse. Rule #1: It’s My Body – God wants me to be safe and happy. I have the right to know the body safety rules. Rule #2: If I have the “Uh-Oh” feeling like something is wrong, then I am right! I need to ask questions. Rule #3: If someone makes me feel uncomfortable, I have the right to say “NO!” and “GET AWAY!” Rule #4: I should always tell if someone makes me feel uncomfortable or touches my private areas. I should keep telling until someone believes me. Rule #5: If I am abused, it is never my fault. For more information on child safety, please contact the parish office.
Este próximo abril nuestra Arquidiócesis observará la campaña nacional Mes de Prevención de abuso de Niños y “Cuidemos a los Niños”. En este mes, los padres y guardianes deben revisar juntos con sus niños y adolescentes las Cinco Reglas del Cuidado del Cuerpo. Estas reglas les servirán para protegerse del daño de abuso sexual de niños. Regla #1: Es Mi Cuerpo – Dios quiere que esté seguro y feliz. Tengo derecho de saber las reglas del cuidado del cuerpo. Regla #2: Si siento un “uh-oh”, que algo no está bien, tengo la razón. Regla #3: Si alguien me hace sentirme male, tengo derecho de decirle “NO!” y “Quitate! Vete!”. Regla #4 Debo de reportar pronto si alguien me hace sentirme inquieto y nervioso o me toca mis partes privadas. Debo de reportar esto seguido hasta que alguien me lo crea. Reglas #5: Si sufro un abuso, nunca es mi culpa. Para mayor información acerca de reglas de cuidado de niños, contacta la oficina de la parroquia. Para obtener ayuda, llame a la Oficina del Ministerio de Ayuda al (213) 637-7650.
