Father Ron Mrozinski will be visiting our
parish next weekend to speak at all the Masses
on behalf of the Cross Catholic Outreach
which was founded to create a meaningful link
between parishes in America and the priests
and nuns working in the Church overseas in the Caribbean, Africa, Asia,
Central and South America.
El Padre Ron Mrozinski visitará nuestra parroquia esta fin de semana para hablar en
todas las misas en nombre del alcance de la Cruz Católica que fue fundada para crear
un vinculo significativo entre las parroquia en America, los sacerdotes y monjas que
trabajan en las iglesias del otro lado de los océanos, en el Caribe, África, Asia, Centro
u Sudamérica.
Do people say of our Christian communities today what they said about the
first Christians, "See how they love one another"? How different our world
would be if we had put into practice a love like that of God and the first
Christians! Christian love, the one with which we love God and people and
ourselves is a love that has God as its source and force. It is this love which
Jesus teaches us and asks of us here in this Eucharist.
¿Acaso dice la gente, hablando de nuestras comunidades de hoy, lo que decían de las
primeras comunidades cristianas, "¡Miren cómo se aman unos a otros!"? ¡Qué diferente
sería nuestro mundo, si hubiéramos puesto en práctica un amor como ése de los primeros
cristianos! El amor cristiano, con el que amamos a Dios, a los hermanos y a nosotros
mismos, es un amor que tiene a Dios como su fuente y su fuerza. Éste es el amor que
Jesús nos enseña, y el que nos exige en esta eucaristía.

Priesthood Sunday, October 26, 2014, is
a special day set to honor Priesthood in the
United States. It is a call for parishioners
to honor Christ as Priest and the men who
were called to be his priests here on earth.
It is also a day to honor all religious and to focus on the importance
of vocations. Please join, on this special day, in praying for our
priests, in praising God for their courage and their generosity and in
expressing your appreciation in your own special way.

THIRTIETH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME — TRIGÉSIMO NOVENO DOMINGO DEL TIEMPO ORDINARIO
READINGS FOR THE WEEK OF OCTOBER 26
STEWARDSHIP OF PRAYER AND REFLECTION
“Be careful what god you worship,”
warns an ancient proverb, “for you will
come to look like him.” We have
“turned to God from idols,” Paul
asserts, and Exodus describes what that
looks like: “You shall not oppress an
alien, for you were once aliens
yourselves…
If you take your
neighbor’s cloak as pledge, you shall
return it before sunset.” Even the coat
that doubles as my neighbor’s sleeping bag is subject to the Great
Commandment. What an eye for detail God has when the little and
lowly are at stake!

Un antiguo proverbio anglófono ofrece
la siguiente advertencia: “Cuidado con el
dios que adoras, pues vas a llegar a lucir
como él”. “Abandonando a los ídolos,
se convirtieron al Dios vivo y
verdadero”, afirma Pablo, y Éxodo nos
describe lo que quiere decir eso en la
práctica: “No hagas sufrir ni oprimas al
extranjero, porque ustedes fueron
extranjeros… Si tomas en prenda el manto de tu prójimo,
devuélveselo antes de que se ponga el sol”. Hasta el manto cobertor,
que también le sirve a mi prójimo de saco de dormir, está sujeto al
Gran Mandamiento. ¡Qué ojo tiene Dios para los detalles cuando los
pequeños y humildes están en riesgo!
