Hail Mary, poor and humble Woman, Blessed by the Most High! Virgin of
hope, dawn of a new era, We join in your song of praise, to celebrate the
Lord’s mercy, to proclaim the coming of the Kingdom and the full liberation of
humanity.

Hail Mary, lowly handmaid of the Lord, Glorious Mother of Christ! Faithful
Virgin, holy dwelling-place of the Word, Teach us to persevere in listening to
the Word, and to be docile to the voice of the Spirit, attentive to his promptings
in the depths of our conscience and to his manifestations in the events of
history.

Hail Mary, Woman of sorrows, Mother of the living! Virgin spouse beneath the
Cross, the new Eve, Be our guide along the paths of the world. Teach us to
experience and to spread the love of Christ, to stand with you before the
innumerable crosses on which your Son is still crucified.

Hail Mary, woman of faith, First of the disciples! Virgin Mother of the Church,
help us always to account for the hope that is in us, with trust in human
goodness and the Father’s love. Teach us to build up the world beginning from
within: in the depths of silence and prayer, in the joy of fraternal love, in the
unique fruitfulness of the Cross.

Holy Mary, Mother of believers, Our Lady of Lourdes, pray for us.

Amen.

Is 6:1-8; 1 Cor 15:1-11; Lk 5 1-11

Just over a week ago one of the all time great football quarterbacks retired. Kurt Warner did not seem destined to greatness. He began as a third
string quarterback at Northern Iowa and even after winning the top job and breaking records his senior year he was cut before the season began
from the pros. Warner was stocking groceries for $5.50 an hour when he finally got a position with the Arena Football League and the “rest is
history”; two MVP awards, three Super Bowl s, tons of records. Written off by everyone, against all odds, Kurt Warner was able to achieve
greatness as a National Football League Quarterback.

Today, on Super Bowl Sunday, as we begin our Together in Mission Annual Appeal, scripture is filled with heroes who worked great things for
God’s Kingdom against all odds. In the first reading we hear of Isaiah who had a vision of heaven where he realized his unworthiness. “Woe is
me, I am doomed! For I am a man of unclean lips, living among a people of unclean lips” (Is 6:3). St. Paul will recognize his failings in the his letter
to the Corinthians, “For I am the least of the apostles, not fit to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. But by the grace of
God I am what I am” (15:10). In today’s Gospel, after lowering his nets at Jesus’ command and viewing the abundant catch he will fall on his knees
and say, “Depart from me, Lord, for I am a sinful man.”

God never gives up on any of us; He recognizes the greatness inside each one of us and is able to open to open the way for us to bring hope not
only into our own lives but to the world around us. This is the beauty of the Together in Mission Annual Appeal. God is able to take us in our
brokenness, show us our potential and lead us to helping Him bring about His Kingdom. As priests God has done this to us with our lives. I was
definitely not the best or brightest of children when I was called by God to enter the seminary. I was not the most courageous priest around when I
was sent to South Central Los Angeles and my ability to speak Spanish was not so great when I was sent to East Los Angeles and later to be
Pastor in South Gate and I am sure there were many who would have been much more qualified to take on the leadership of Mary Star of the Sea.
Yet, God, throughout my broken life has been able to use me to help him bring about His Kingdom.

I understand that these are economically challenging times; financially many of us are as down-in-out as Kurt Warner was when he was stocking
shelves at a grocery store. The Together in Mission Annual Appeal is an opportunity to respond to the Gospel in our own lives. Before the
disciples will be able to cast the nets into the water in today’s Gospel, the nets must be mended. We have been struggling here at Mary Star, but
this recession has affected the poor and the poorer parishes much more harshly then parishes such as ours. Many of our inner-city parishes are
only able to afford one priest and a secretary and struggle to pay those salaries. Many of our elementary schools throughout the Archdiocese are
struggling like they never have before; some may have to close and some who had been doing well only a couple of years ago are in crisis.
Utilities, taxes, insurances, payrolls and all other bills are rising in our poorer parishes and schools while their incomes are decreasing at a greater
lever than here.

This is a bleak time throughout our nation and here in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles; but not a hopeless time. God is always able to find us in
our brokenness and bring new hope into our lives. Today I am asking you to help in this work of our Lord through your commitment to the Together
in Mission Annual Appeal. This is not a onetime donation that we place in the basket. We are called to make a pledge, a commitment to the work
of the Church in the poorer parishes and schools throughout the Archdiocese. Many of you will receive a letter from the Cardinal and a pledge
form in the mail, and all of us will receive an opportunity to pledge as we come to church in the coming weeks. Our goal this year is $92,252; if we
do not reach our goal this will have to be paid by the parish. Last year we met and exceeded our goal and I am very confident that again, despite
our troubled times, we will exceed our goal this year. I invite you to trust in the Lord, lower your nets though your generosity and allow Christ to use
you to become fishers of men.

It was very nice to see our response to our Elementary School Open House. We have much to be proud of with our new Pre-school, our
Elementary School and our High School.
We have had an excellent response to our Parish Spiritual Renewal, yet I will not be pleased until we have the whole parish enrolled.
Please inform us if you know any homebound who would like to receive weekly communion and a periodic visit from our priests.
Our Adult Catechism Class is discussing the Life and Ministry of Jesus. All are invited.

God Bless,

 Together In Mission 2010
A Time for Reflection
This week, you are asked to read and
reflect upon the Together in Mission
materials that you received today.
Together in Mission provides sub-
stantial financial support to 35 par-
ishes and 61 schools in our Archdio-
cese. These parishes and schools
provide education, ministry and a
Catholic presence for tens of thou-
sands of our sisters and brothers.
Sometimes it is difficult to envision how your pledge can help so
many people. But, it does. To see how, please review the
materials and read the statements of those whose parishes and
schools receive support.
The theme of the campaign is “I Give Thanks to You, Lord.”
Psalm 138:1 Together in Mission provides an opportunity to
show our concern for those served by the parishes and schools
that need your financial support.
If you received your pledge form in the mail, please complete it
and mail it back or bring it to Mass next weekend. Also, we will
conduct our annual Together in Mission in-pew pledge process
at all Masses this weekend and the following weekend.
As always, what you give should be given in gratitude and
thanksgiving for what God has given to you. Thank you for your
prayerful consideration and generous response.

Saint Joseph’s Table
St. Joseph, the patron saint of the
Universal Church, will be honored by a
traditional St. Joseph’s Table at Mary Star
of the Sea Catholic Church on Sunday,
March 21, 2009. This ancient tradition
goes back to the Middle Ages. At that time
there was a severe drought in Sicily. No
rain fell for a very long time, no crops
would grow, and countless people died of
starvation. The faithful prayed to St.
Joseph to intercede with God on their behalf. They promised that
if God brought the rain, they would have a special feast honoring
God and St. Joseph.
Events of the day: The Mary Star parish groups and all other
attendees will assemble in the parish auditorium at 11:15am.
The statue of St. Joseph will be taken in procession with chants
of ‘Viva San Giuseppe!”Following the service, the procession will
move to the auditorium for a “Poor Man’s Meal.” The attendees
will be greeted by the ‘Holy Family.” The meal will be blessed
and the statute of St. Joseph will be visible to everyone.
The event is free to the public. Bring you family and friends! Free
will donations toward scholarship programs will be accepted.
Perpetual Adoration
I am most grateful for Sr. Ena, of the Cluny
Sisters, for coming forward to spend time with
the Blessed Sacrament in our Adoration
Chapel. She was the only one in this parish
to respond to my most recent plea. In a time
when prayer is most welcome and needed in
this world, that is very sad and hard to
accept. This is a large parish and I still need
to have the following hours filled with
committed adorers:
Saturday 2-3 p.m. and 8-9 p.m.
Sunday 1-2 p.m. and 2-3 p.m.
Monday 7-9 p.m. and 8-9 p.m.
Thursday 9-10 p.m.
Thank you and God bless any of you interested in reaping the
benefits of prayer before the Blessed Sacrament. I am most
grateful for all of the Adorers that are currently so very devoted.
Please call Barbara West at 310/548-1693 to discuss openings
or fill out an enrollment form found in the Chapel and return to
Fr. Ivan in the Rectory.
 "Returning a Call" from God!
Have you been considering "what if" God was
really calling you to serve as a deacon, sister,
or priest? Have you been feeling those tugs at
your heart? Not sure what to do about them, or
even to make sure they are for real? If you think
God might be calling you, it's a good idea to at
least return the call. Fr. Brian would love to help.

Apostleship of the Sea
“Put out into the deep water and
lower your nets for a catch” Luke
5,4)
IMITATING PETER’S FAITH
At Jesus’ daring command for a
seasoned fisherman to lower his
nets for a catch, Peter obeyed. His
humble act was rewarded with a
miraculous catch of fishes and a new mission to be fisher
of men. We too can imitate such faith. We, the Maritime
ministry can do no less in accomplishing our mission to
them We hear their sea stories and share their concern
over hard work schedules, long separation from families,
lack of time to rest and no capacity to contact them at sea.
We need to find and create more means for them to call
home. That’s why, we’re augmenting our Center’s
capacity to make phone calls more accessible and less
expensive. We need your help. Important dates to keep in
mind. Feb. 21 – the annual CDA= Catholic Daughters of
America Fundraising for our Apostleship of the Sea at
Casa Italiana in Chinatown and the Feb.22-Mar 5 – annual

Annual Ladies Retreat
A Mary Star Tradition
The Annual Ladies Retreat at the Sacred Heart Retreat house in
Alhambra has a long history with Mary Star of the Sea. From
1950 to 1988 Liberty Albano arranged retreats for the women of
the parish, many of them fishermen’s wives and cannery workers.
She took as many as 35 retreatants! Sadly she passed away in
January of 1988. I took over for Liberty after her death and can
safely say that ladies from Mary Star of the Sea have been going
on retreat at the Sacred Heart Retreat House for 60 years!!!
The Annual Ladies Retreat will be held at the Sacred Heart
Retreat House in Alhambra April 9-11, 2010. This is a silent
retreat for women only. For information and reservations please
call: Patricia Cervantes (310) 519-1045
