We speak of putting in an appearance or showing up. Even when we arrive, we are often distracted. We think ahead, or we review an unsettled past. Nonetheless, we are at our best when we truly show up. We are most fully ourselves when we are absorbed in something worthy of us: creative work, good conversation, prayer. In these instances we are wholly ourselves and wholly outside ourselves. Elijah knew this kind of engagement. He was one of God’s great prophets. In today’s first reading, he follows God’s command to journey to that most holy place, Mount Horeb. And there in great silence, Elijah encounters God. As for Peter and the apostles, they discover the presence of God after the storm at sea. They and the sea and the winds are stunned into silent reverence. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co. PRESENCIA Es difícil estar realmente presente ante otros. Hablamos de aparecernos o dar signo de presencia. Aun cuando estamos allí, estamos distraídos. pensamos en lo que viene, o revisitamos un pasado no resuelto. Sin embargo, somos lo mejor que podemos ser cuando estamos realmente presentes. Somos nuestro más completo ser cuando estamos absorbidos en algo digno de nosotros: trabajo creativo, buena conversación, oración. En estas ocasiones somos totalmente nosotros mismos y totalmente fuera de nosotros. Elías conocía ese tipo de participación. Él era uno de los grandes profetas de Dios. En la primera lectura, él sigue el mandamiento de Dios de ir a un sitio sagrado, el Monte Horeb. Y allí en gran silencio, el humilde Elías encontró a Dios. Y Pedro y los Apóstoles descubrieron la presencia de Dios después de la tormenta en el mar. Ellos, el mar y el viento se quedaron mudos en silencio reverente. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co. TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION Over the last several weeks, the history of confirmation has been set out as a rite following baptism and preceding First Communion. Eucharist was a sacrament of spiritual maturity, attuned to the legal age of majority, which was considered to be fourteen years or so. Medieval bishops were often generous, if not especially pious, in seeing to it that children were confirmed before adulthood. A pattern more familiar to us surfaced in the Diocese of Toulon in France in 1748, where it was decreed that “children are to be confirmed only after receiving First Communion.” This was an amazing shift in practice that undermined centuries of theology and tradition by which confirmation was seen as a bridge between font and table. The innovation swept through France and across Europe, despite constant complaints from Rome. French-trained bishops like Cheverus of Boston and Carroll of Baltimore, founders of the American church, established the practice here. The order of the sacraments was thus disrupted in France and in the United States, and remained an eccentric exception to the rule until big developments in 1910. —Rev. James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co. GOD’S IMAGE Nature has perfections in order to show that she is the image of God, and defects to show that she is only God’s image. —Blaise Pascal SING Alas for those who never sing, but die with their music within them. —Oliver Wendell Holmes TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE Hoy celebramos la memoria del santo patrono de los cocineros, san Lorenzo. Este español del siglo tercero fue uno de siete diáconos del Papa Sixto II, en Roma. Su ministerio consistía en repartir limosnas a los pobres. En el año 257 se pronunció una nueva persecución a los cristianos en Roma y el día 6 de agosto unos soldados romanos asesinaron al Papa y a cuatro de sus diáconos. Lorenzo, cuyo nombre significa laureado o premiado, fue arrestado tras la batalla y llevado ante el alcalde de Roma. Este mandó traer todas las riquezas de la Iglesia, pero Lorenzo ya hacía tiempo que las había vendido para dar el dinero a los más necesitados. No obstante, se marchó de la presencia del alcalde para luego llegar con él, acompañado de gente pobre y enferma, insistiendo que ellos eran las verdaderas riquezas de la Iglesia. El alcalde, furioso, lo mandó quemar sobre brazas para que muriera lentamente. Según testigos de su martirio, Lorenzo, a cierto punto dijo a sus asesinos: “Ya estoy asado de este lado, voltéenme para asarme por completo”. Eventualmente dijo: “La carne esta lista, ya pueden comer” y falleció orando por la conversión de Roma. —Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co. IMAGEN DE DIOS La naturaleza tiene perfecciones a fin de mostrarnos que ella es la imagen de Dios, así como defectos para mostrarnos que es apenas imagen de Dios. —Blas Pascal CANTA TU CANCIÓN Lástima que aquellos que nunca cantan, se mueren con la música en su interior. —Oliver Wendell Holmes TRUSTED & RESPECTED THOMAS NIEMCZYK, D.D.S.
