Be Merciful As Your Father In Heaven Is Merciful
As we know, Pope Francis declared this year to be The Year of Mercy. He calls us to
reflect on our own lives and how we have received God’s mercy and how we need to
be merciful to others.
Jesus takes the story of the Good Samaritan to illustrate what mercy is and to whom
we are to be merciful: literally anyone and everyone. We are to be so merciful
because God is so merciful, and we are all meant to be like God.
For us, it’s not always so easy to be merciful. And by merciful in one sense we mean
to forgive, to be reconciled. Thankfully, some of us experience truly terrible and
terrifying things. People get horrible diseases and injuries. Others are victims of
horrific crimes. The victims of terrible crimes face an extreme challenge to forgive
those who have hurt them.
On the other hand, the way Jesus illustrates mercy in the story of the Good Samaritan
is more in the sense of compassion. Jesus intensifies His teaching by mentioning that
the man who helped the other man who had been beaten and robbed was a
Samaritan. The Jews and the Samaritans were not on good terms, and generally
despised each other. So the mercy and compassion of the Samaritan are
compounded. Jesus’ first hearers of this parable would have felt the unexpected
shock to learn of a Samaritan who stopped to help a beaten man, when a priest and a
Levite had already passed him by.
God’s mercy is a mysterious thing. Through it we learn that even God can be
vulnerable. In many ways and in many instances it is God who “takes it on the chin”
from us. We have all ignored Him, disregarded Him, failed Him, and turned our back
on Him. Does God reject us because of it? Does He give up on us? No. When we
have trespassed against Him, but afterwards stop, repent and confess, He delights to
show us His mercy.
None of us would ever want to live in a world without mercy. Instead, we could expect
retaliation and vengeance from others we have wronged. God doesn’t retaliate
against us when we’ve sinned. He waits patiently for us to come to him in humility
and contrition, and then He pours His mercy and grace upon us.
Our neighbors are anyone who needs us to treat them with compassion and mercy.
The more compassion and mercy we show, the more merciful and compassionate the
world will be. Add to the world as much mercy and compassion as you can minute by
minute, day by day, year by year. This is our calling from the Lord, and this is our
mission in life: to reflect, apply and spread the mercy of God throughout all His
Creation.
Blessings!
Fr. David

Ser Misericordiosos, Como Vuestro Padre Celestial Es Misericordioso
Como sabemos, el Papa Francisco declaró este año como el Año de la Misericordia. Él
nos llama a reflexionar sobre nuestra propia vida y la forma en que hemos recibido la
misericordia de Dios y cómo tenemos que ser misericordiosos con los demás.
Jesús toma la historia del Buen Samaritano para ilustrar lo que es la misericordia y con el
que hemos de ser misericordiosos, literalmente, con todos y cada uno. Hemos de ser muy
misericordiosos porque Dios es muy misericordioso, y todos estamos destinados a ser
como Dios.
Para nosotros, que no siempre es tan fácil ser misericordiosos o compasivos. Y por ser
misericordiosos en un sentido, nos referimos a perdonar, a reconciliarnos.
Afortunadamente, algunos de nosotros experimentamos cosas verdaderamente terribles y
terroríficas. La gente padece horribles enfermedades y lesiones. Otros son víctimas de
crímenes horrendos. Las víctimas de crímenes terribles se enfrentan a un desafío
extremo para perdonar a los que les han hecho daño.
Por otra parte, la forma en que Jesús ilustra la misericordia en la historia del Buen
Samaritano es más en el sentido de la compasión. Jesús intensifica su enseñanza
mencionando que el hombre que ayudó al otro hombre había sido golpeado y robado, era
Samaritano. Los Judíos y los Samaritanos no estaban en buenas condiciones, y
generalmente se despreciaban entre sí. Por lo que la misericordia y la compasión del
Samaritano se empeoran. Los primeros oyentes de esta parábola de Jesús, habrán
sentido el choque inesperado de aprender de un Samaritano, que se detuvo para ayudar
a un hombre golpeado, cuando un Sacerdote y un Levita ya habían pasado de largo.
La misericordia de Dios es una cosa misteriosa. A través de ella aprendemos que incluso
Dios puede ser vulnerable. En muchas formas y en muchos casos es Dios quien "toma la
carga" por nosotros. Todos lo hemos ignorado, no le hemos hecho caso, le hemos fallado,
y le hemos dado la espalda. ¿Nos ha rechazado Dios por eso? ¿Nos ha abandonado?
No. Cuando pecamos contra Él, y después nos detenemos, nos arrepentimos y nos
confesamos, Dios se deleita en mostrarnos su misericordia.
Ninguno de nosotros querría vivir en un mundo sin misericordia. En su lugar,
esperaríamos la revancha y la venganza de los que hemos hecho mal. Dios no toma
represalias contra nosotros cuando hemos pecado. Espera pacientemente a que nosotros
volvamos a Él con humildad y contrición, y luego derrama su misericordia y gracia sobre
nosotros.

WHAT SHOULD I WEAR TO CHURCH
TODAY? If you’ve found yourself asking this
¿QUÉ ME PONGO HOY PARA IR LA
IGLESIA? Si usted se ha hecho esta pregunta,
question, here’s something to consider from the
Guide for Extraordinary Ministers of Holy
Communion (Liturgy Training Publications, p.
39). Although it is addressed to ministers of holy
communion, it may help as a guide for all of us.
aquí hay algo a considerar de la Guía para los
ministros extraordinarios de la Comunión (Liturgy
Training Publications, p. 39). Aunque está dirigida
a los ministros de la Santa Comunión, puede ser
útil como guía para todos nosotros.
“Your attire should demonstrate your appreciation
of how your role fits within the worship
experience. Does your attire express respect and
reverence for the sacred mysteries that are being
celebrated? Would you consider wearing your
church clothes to a job interview? Your ministry
as an extraordinary minister is, in actuality, much
more important than any interview because it is an
encounter with the bread of life come down
from heaven. Such an encounter requires a
reverent demeanor and appropriate clothing.”
"Su vestimenta debe demostrar su aprecio de la
forma en que su papel no sobresalga de la
experiencia de adoración. ¿Su vestimenta
expresa respeto y reverencia por los sagrados
misterios que se están celebrando? ¿Consideraría
vestir la ropa que trae puesta a la iglesia para una
entrevista de trabajo? Su ministerio como ministro
extraordinario es, en realidad, mucho más
importante que cualquier entrevista, porque es un
encuentro con el Pan de Vida bajado del cielo.
Un encuentro de este tipo requiere una actitud
reverente y ropa adecuada”.
WE ARE GRATEFULKto
AGRADECEMOS...

VINNIE’S ON BROADWAY NOTES
FROM THE HEART
The volunteers at St. Vincent de Paul on Broadway
would like to share with you our work that your
donations and thrift shop support make possible
while keeping confidential the identities of our
brothers
and
sisters
in
need.
FEED THEM
June 14, we gave out flags for Flag Day and food with
our bi-monthly Mobile Food Pantry in partnership with
Schreiner University. We broke our previous numbers
with
serving
172
families
having
557
members. Unfortunately, with school out, there was a
lack of students to help. Fortunately, only 2 of us left
early due to heat exhaustion! We distributed 9319 lbs.
of fresh produce and canned goods for a cost of
$350. And the $350 is paid for by a grant Peterson
Middle School was awarded through the San Antonio
Spurs. Towards the end, we shorted some families
some items, but we gave them extra at the next day's
Food Pantry distribution. We distributed fresh
cauliflower, turnip greens, rotting iceberg lettuce, rotini,
canned protein (meat and beans), iced tea, fresh
bread, and smiles.
We planned for 125
families, Loaves and fishes time!
PHONE CALL
St Vincent de Paul, How may we help you?
"I've been out of work 2 months and my
unemployment still hasn't come through. I've been
evicted and am living in my truck. I'm out of gas. Can
you lend me $50 for gas and I'll pay you $150 when I
get a check?"
No, Sir. We are a charity. We won't lend you
money. Come in and see what we can do for
you. Gas is a possibility.
"Then I'll give a donation. You can have all my stuff
but me and my truck."
That won't be necessary.
"I want to do something."
Pray for us, sir.
BooksToBorrow
from the Notre Dame Parish Library are
available in the narthex of the church,
near the bell tower door. We are adding
to the library the books of the People of
God series from the Liturgical Press.
Each is less than 150 pages long, and
gives a look at a twentieth century
Catholic.
John XXIII: The Medicine of Mercy,
by Massimo Faggioli is heavy with
historical and political accounts, from
national, inter-national, and Vatican
politics. However, John O’Malley, SJ,
Georgetown University, evaluates the
volume in this way: “Faggioli has
produced the first biography in English
based largely on the recently completed
edition of Roncalli’s extensive diaries.
He is able therefore to trace the external
events on Roncalli’s life in a newly
reliable way but, more important, also
to reveal the pope’s internal journey
from a naive peasant boy into one of the
world’s most respected and beloved
leaders.”
Francis: Bishop of Rome, by Michael
Collins (second edition) is also heavy
with background information about
national, international, and Vatican
politics. However, the myriad homely
details about the years 2013-2015 in
the final three chapters make this a
entertaining and rewarding summer
read. (Did you know that the newly
elected pope changed the light bulb in
his hotel room before he checked out on
March 14, 2013?)

Summer is Vacation Time
But there is no vacation for the need for blood
Father Kemper Council 6409
Knights of Columbus
is sponsoring a
Summer Bloodmobile Drive
Campana de Donacion de Sangre
in front of the Notre Dame Social Center
Sunday, July 10 from 8:00 am to 1:00 pm.
Photo Identification Required
Due to vacations, many regular donors are not available
in the summer resulting in shortages of blood at the blood bank.
Consider donating, and remind our youth, 16 and over, that
they are eligible to donate. Many youth donate at school
but with the summer, there are no school drives.
