October 10, 2010
In Everything Give Thanks...The leper was healed while “Jesus continued on his
journey to Jerusalem.” This is what happens to us when by paschal mystery living we walk
with Jesus to Jerusalem: on the way we are healed of our infirmities. We are healed each
time we come to Eucharist to give praise and thanks to God, and in this act of worship we
become more perfect members of the Body of Christ. We are healed each time we put others
ahead of ourselves, and in these simple acts we strengthen our faith. We are healed each
time we pause a few seconds to “give thanks to God” for the many blessings of each day because by giving thanks to God we acknowledge that God has acted in Christ. Gratitude is an
expression of paschal mystery living because by giving thanks we acknowledge our own indebtedness—we are poor and everything we are and are becoming is because God has
raised us up.
God gives us so much (salvation) and asks so little of us in return (faith & thankfulness). This is but another reminder that
our relationship to God isn’t between equals—God’s gifts are lavish, far more than anything we could earn or accomplish
on our own. This is why paschal mystery living makes such good sense. By living Jesus’ dying and rising in our own simple everyday tasks, we render God the greatest and thanks and worship because our lives become like that of the divine
Son. Our thanks is our manifestation of God’s salvation.
—Living Liturgy 2010
St. Didacus Parish offers Rosaries for Peace
During the early years of Pope John Paul II's pontificate, he
called on the Catholics of the world to pray more for Peace. In
answer to his plea, Fr. Donald Buchanan, then associate Pastor of St. John of the Cross Church in Lemon Grove, eagerly
answered the Holy Father's request. This was 1983, and the
world was still in danger from international communism. Our
Lady had warned at Fatima in 1917 that Russia would continue
to spread her errors throughout the world if her requests were
not answered: Prayer, especially the Rosary, Sacrifice and
return to God … Repentance.
This year instead of having a Diocesan led
Rosary for Peace each parish will lead its
own rosary. St. Didacus Parish will have our
Rosary for Peace at the following times.
Please join us in the
Church for the Rosary:
—Saturday, October 16th at 4:30pm
—Sunday, October 17th at 8:00am in
English and at 12:30pm in Spanish
Beginning very humbly, with the help of individuals of the Legion of Mary (he was then serving as Spiritual Director of that organization), the Knights of Columbus and other
parish organizations, he organized the first Rosaries for Peace as a Parish devotion in the form of a Candlelight
Rosary Procession similar to the ones in which he had participated at Fatima and Lourdes.
The response from not only the parishioners at St. John's, but also
throughout the Diocese made it necessary to move the following year
to the Immaculata and then to the University of San Diego stadium.
Through the years, we received Apostolic Blessings from Pope John
Paul II, and also received several telegrams from then President
Ronald Reagan praising our efforts and saying that he and Mrs.
Reagan joined us in prayers for peace.
During those years, the Berlin Wall came down and communism lost
its power. Unfortunately, not enough people in our world have turned
to God, and we are now confronted with international terrorism resulting in the war in Iraq and Afghanistan, and other trouble spots throughout the world. Our Lady also warned at
Fatima that "…war is a punishment for sin."

An attitude of gratitude! That’s
what both Naaman and the Samaritan expressed after being cured of
leprosy. Is that how we approach
God for the gifts bestowed on us, or
do we only turn to God in times of
need?
During the time of Jesus,
those afflicted with leprosy were outcasts. Jesus always reached beyond
the usual boundaries with his healing
love. Who are the outcasts in our society today, and how do
we respond to their afflictions?

else, say researchers at
Harvard and the
University of
California, San
Diego. Their
study provides strong evidence that cooperative behavior spreads from person to person to person—like a benevolent virus. In the study, volunteers simulated giving
money away to others. The researchers observed a
domino effect, in which one person’s kindness spread
first to three people, then to nine people, and then to
even more people. What’s more, after giving you become a more generous person who’ll give to others
more frequently. Happily no one’s immune to the kindness flu. “We found that the effect works on Scrooge
and Santa personalities alike,” says study co-author
James H. Fowler, Ph.D., a professor at UC San Diego
and expert on social networks.

Kid’s Corner
St. Teresa of Avila—October 15
Did you know that some DOCTORS are not medical doctors?
This special title can also be given to someone who doesn’t know
anything about medicine—but knows a great deal about some
other subject. That’s why some great religious leaders have
been given the title of “Doctor of the Church.” And the first
woman to ever receive this title was Saint Teresa of Avila. St.
Teresa was intelligent AND hardheaded, industrious AND
charming. She worked lots but she also prayed lots. Teresa
founded convents and monasteries, traveled all over Spain at a
time when most people never traveled beyond their own
neighborhoods, and wrote letters and books that are still studied and appreciated today—more than 300 years after her
death! Would YOU like to be a doctor when you grow up—a Doctor of the Church?

EL DOMINGO 17 DE OVTUBRE DESPUES DE LA MISA

Todo el mes de octubre está particularmente dedicado a la oración del rosario. Con motivo de la situación internacional actual, el Obispo Robert Brom

Subrayando al mismo tiempo que el Rosario la es contemplación de Cristo en sus misterios, en
íntima unión con María Santísima. Y, ¿quién mejor que María nos puede acompañar en este itinerario de la mente y del corazón? Teniendo fija la mirada en Jesucristo, nuestra Paz.
El próximo domingo 17 de octubre, después de la misa de español, las familias hispanas están
llamadas a participar en la oración por la paz en unión con toda nuestra diócesis. La oración
por la paz se está rezando en todo el mundo. Unamos nuestra fervorosa oración al Señor por intercesión de María, Reina de la Paz.
