LAVISH FORGIVENESS
Moses appeals to God for compassion in today’s first reading. The point of Moses’ pleas is not
to provide a blueprint for pacifying an angry God,
but to demonstrate that no matter our sin and its
grievousness, God will always forgive.
In his Letter to Timothy, Paul uses himself,
the great sinner, as an example of just how great is
God’s forgiveness. Finally, today’s Gospel parables
create a mural of God’s forgiving love. Like a diligent housekeeper, a good shepherd, a loving father,
God goes out of the way to recover the lost and to
forgive. By pointing out that the woman leaves her
nine silver pieces, that the shepherd leaves his
ninety-nine sheep waiting, and the father leaves his
elder son upset, Jesus urges us to abandon a stingy
view of life. If God can be so generous, so forgiving,
and so loving to those deemed unworthy, we must act
likewise.

The Twenty-fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time
GENEROSO PERDÓN
Moisés implora la compasión de Dios en la
primera lectura de hoy. El objeto del ruego de Moisés
no es ofrecer un modelo para pacificar a un Dios airado, sino demostrar que, no importa la gravedad de
nuestro pecado, Dios siempre nos perdona.
En su carta a Timoteo, Pablo se ofrece a sí
mismo, el gran pecador, como ejemplo de la grandeza
del perdón de Dios. Finalmente, las parábolas del
Evangelio de hoy, crean un mural del perdón amoroso
de Dios. Como una diligente ama de casa, un buen
pastor, un padre amoroso, Dios no escatima esfuerzo
para recobrar al que se ha extraviado, y perdonarlo.
Al hacer notar que la mujer deja sus nueve monedas de
plata, que el pastor deja sus noventa y nueve ovejas
esperando, y que el padre deja a su hijo mayor enfadado, Jesús nos urge a abandonar un punto de vista mezquino de la vida. Si Dios puede ser tan generoso, tan
perdonador y tan amoroso con aquellos considerados
no merecedores, nosotros debemos actuar de igual
manera. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

REGISTRATION IN THE PARISH
REGISTRACION EN LA IGLESIA
If you are attending Mass at St. Clare and are not
registered, PLEASE, fill out a registration form.
Registration forms can be found in English and in
Spanish on the bulletin boards at all the entrances of
the church. Please know that if you wish to have a child
baptized or enroll them in Religious Education classes
or need a letter to be a godparent in another church, we
cannot verify your presence in our parish without a
registration on file.
People who registered some years ago, but moved and
did not give us a change of address may have dropped
out of our system. If you have been in this parish all
your life but are no longer living at home with your
parents, or if you were married here and think that
means we have all your information in a computer that
may not be the case.
Please know we are blessed by your presence.
Invitamos a todos los feligreses de Santa Clara, a
formar parte de nuestra comunidad. COMO?
Registrándose en la Iglesia. Las formas se encuentra en
todos las entradas de la Iglesia.
Quienes registrado hace algunos anos pero se movió y
no nos dio un cambio de dirección pueden han caído
fuera de nuestro sistema. Si han estado en esta parroquia de toda la vida pero ya no viven en casa con tus
padres, o si se casaron aquí y creo que eso quiere decir
que todo información esta en una computadora quizás,
que no tenemos esa información.
Es muy fácil llenar la forma, seria de gran beneficio
para usted, para cuando necesite alguna carta de recomendación o cualquier otro comprobante que necesite
para emigración, etc. Se les pueda ayudar con mas
facilidad. Y si es nuevo en nuestra parroquia le
damos.
La bienvenida!

Are you suffering because someone dear to you has
stopped practicing the faith or has left the Church
altogether? If so, St. Clare’s has a prayer group which
meets in the Church every Friday at 7:30 pm. We begin

WHY IS IT
A man wakes up after sleeping
under an ADVERTISED blanket
on an ADVERTISED mattress
and pulls off ADVERTISED pajamas
bathes in an ADVERTISED shower
shaves with an ADVERTISED razor
brushes his teeth
with ADVERTISED toothpaste
washes with ADVERTISED soap
puts on ADVERTISED clothes
drinks a cup
of ADVERTISED coffee
drives to work
in an ADVERTISED car
and then . . . .
refuses to ADVERTISE
believing it doesn’t pay.
Later if business is poor
he ADVERTISES it for sale.
WHY IS IT?
Are you ever alone?
You’re never alone when
you have a medical alert!
"I feel more independent, safe,
and secure with my medical alert."
