A Sunday Reflection
Authenticity
By Fr. Federico
August 21, 2016
READINGS FOR THE WEEK
Some of Jesus’ sayings, unless they are read from their true
perspective, may lead us to deform the gospel. Such is the
case with the well-known words of the following passage:
“Strive to enter through the narrow door.” If not interpreted
properly, they can lead us towards a narrow rigorism, rigid
and contrary to the gospel, instead of leading us to the real
radicality demanded by Jesus. The door to the kingdom is
narrow and it makes us face our own conscience, without the
aid of any institutional, religious or magical apparatus that
would offer us salvation as if it were something to be bought
at the store. It is not that entering the kingdom is easy for
some and difficult for others; it is as easy or as difficult as life
itself, with its recurring doubts, options, clashes and crises,
joys and happiness.

Autenticidad
Reflexión dominical
del P. Federico
Hay dichos de Jesús que, si no sabemos leerlos en su verdadera
perspectiva, nos pueden conducir a una grave deformación de todo
el evangelio. Así sucede con las palabras tan conocidas de este
pasaje: “Forcejeen para abrirse paso por la puerta estrecha”. Mal
interpretadas pueden llevarnos a un rigorismo estrecho, rígido y
antievangélico en lugar de orientarnos hacia la verdadera
radicalidad exigida por Jesús. La puerta del reino es estrecha y nos
enfrenta con nuestra propia conciencia, desnudos de todo aparato
institucional, religioso o mágico que pretenda ofrecernos, como si
de un mercado se tratara, la salvación. La entrada al reino no es
fácil para unos y difícil para otros, pues es tan fácil o difícil como la
vida misma, con sus continuas dudas, opciones, choques y crisis,
gozos y alegrías.

The Jubilee of Mercy
El Jubileo de la Misericordia
The Gospel … allows us to discover an essential aspect of
mercy: almsgiving. It might seem simple to give alms, but we
must be careful not to empty this gesture of its importance.
Indeed, the term “alms”, derives from the Greek and actually means “mercy”.
Therefore, almsgiving must carry with it all the richness of mercy. And as mercy
has a thousand paths, a thousand ways, thus almsgiving is expressed in many
ways, in order to alleviate the hardship of those who are in need.
The duty to give alms is as ancient as the Bible…God demands special attention
for the poor, who at times are destitute, strangers, orphans and widows…[b]
ecause God wants his people to watch over these brothers and sisters of ours;
moreover, I would say that they are at the very centre of the message: to praise
God through sacrifice and to praise God through almsgiving.
Pope Francis
Jubilee Audience, April 9, 2016
El Evangelio … nos permite descubrir un aspecto esencial de la misericordia:
la limosna. Puede parecer algo sencillo dar limosna, pero debemos prestar
atención para no vaciar este gesto del gran contenido que posee. De hecho, el
término «limosna», deriva del griego y significa precisamente «misericordia». La
limosna, por tanto, debería llevar consigo toda la riqueza de la misericordia. Y
como la misericordia tiene mil caminos, mil modalidades, así la limosna se expresa
de muchas maneras, para aliviar el malestar de los que están necesitados.
El deber de la limosna es tan antiguo como la Biblia... Dios exige una atención
particular por los pobres que, puntualmente, son los que no tienen nada, los
extranjeros, los huérfanos y las viudas…En la Biblia esto es un tema constante…
[p]orque Dios quiere que su pueblo mire a estos hermanos nuestros; es más, diré
que están precisamente en el centro del mensaje: alabar a Dios con el sacrificio y
alabar a Dios con la limosna.
Papa Francisco

DID YOU KNOW...?
We stand during Mass as a sign of respect and honor.
Standing is the posture for the celebrant’s entrance and
exit, during the proclamation of the Gospel and for the
Creed. By standing we assume our full stature in Christ
not in pride, but in humble gratitude for the marvelous
things God has done for us.

A REMINDER TO ALL
Those receiving Holy
Communion must fast from
food and drink for one hour
before receiving (not one
hour before Mass). Water and
medicine may be taken.
LES RECORDAMOS
Quienes reciben la Sagrada
Comunión deberán abstenerse
de comida o bebida una hora
antes de comulgar (no una hora
antes de la misa). El agua y las
medicinas no rompen el ayuno.
La postura de pie durante la misa es señal de respeto. Por eso
la adoptamos para la entrada y salida del celebrante, durante
la proclamación del Evangelio y el Credo. Al ponernos de pie
asumimos nuestra plena estatura en Cristo, no con soberbia,
sino humildemente agradecidos por las maravillas que Dios
hace por nosotros.
PLANNING FOR THE FUTURE
Imagine a gift that gives forever. That’s exactly what your planned gift to our endowment can
do. What you give today will strengthen our parish family by providing perpetual financial
support. For more information contact the rectory or call the Office of Planned Giving at
(305) 762-1110.
PLANEANDO PARA EL FUTURO
Imagínese un regalo para toda una vida. Eso es exactamente lo que su donación planificada a
favor de nuestra dotación de fondos podría lograr. Lo que usted dé hoy fortalecerá a nuestra
familia parroquial, proporcionándole un apoyo financiero perpetuo. Para más información,
llame a la rectoría o a la Oficina de Donaciones Planificadas al (305) 762-1110.

School Volunteers
are a Helping Hand
St. Hugh School is very fortunate to have a
wonderful Homeroom Parent Association
Monday, August 22:
(HRPA) that helps with school events. This
First day of school for students. All must
report in new uniforms. Dismissal 1:00 pm
group of parents meet once a month at
Friday, August 26:
8:00 am in the Parish Hall. The meetings
Welcome Back Mass, 8:00 am
are fun, conveniently scheduled and open
Wednesday, August 31:
to anyone interested. They meet to
Fingerprinting for St. Hugh parents that
wish to volunteer during the school year,
10:00 am to 4:00 pm
discuss upcoming events and explore new
ideas.
We encourage all parents to volunteer at
school. If you cannot help out all year long,
you can volunteer for a single event.
Research shows that children whose
parents help at school have a better
attitude towards school because parents
are demonstrating that education is
important. Join us for our first meeting—
date yet to be determined—once school
starts .
