Hunger knows no season. As the economy struggles along many people are going hungry.
The Knights of Columbus is sponsoring a food drive during lent, which we are calling 40
CANS FOR LENT. We invite you to join us in the Lenten Food Drive. During these 40
days of Lent we are asking each family to consider setting aside one can of food each day for
those in need and on Sunday when you come to Mass to feed your soul you can also help
feed the hungry.
St. Francis of Assisi said “For it is in giving that we receive”.
Non-perishable food items are being collected in the bin marked Knights of Columbus Food
Drive in the back of the church – The Knights will empty out the bin and pick up the food
items each Monday of the week.
Alone, I can only feed myself – but together, we can feed the world. Thank You.
Last week we celebrated the Baptism of the Lord. That feast day represents an ending and
a beginning. It was, of course, the end of the Christmas season. However, it was also the
beginning of Jesus’ public ministry, as well as the beginning of what we call “ordinary time”
in the Church. Thus, since endings and beginnings sometimes overlap, this Sunday is
actually the Second Sunday in Ordinary Time.
Our readings this week not only mark the beginning of Christ’s public ministry, but they also
contain some vivid stewardship imagery and meanings. The First Reading from the Prophet
Isaiah extols God’s love for us. Isaiah compares that unconditional love to the feelings of a
bridegroom toward his bride. The underlying idea which we must grasp is that if God
rejoices because of us, we in turn need to rejoice in service to the Lord and to others. That
is, after all, the joy which comes from stewardship — the joy of serving others without
thought of a return.
St. Paul’s First Letter to the Corinthians, from which our Second Reading is drawn, was
most likely written from Ephesus while Paul was there for an extended period of time.
Although Ephesus is some 250 miles from Corinth, there were many travelers between the
two cities, so most likely Paul was kept apprised of situations and happenings in the Church
in Corinth. With concerns about the Corinthians returning to previous practices and drifting
from the Church, Paul wrote this letter, and the content reflects his apprehensions and his
advice.
What St. Paul says to the Corinthians in this reading could also be applied to our
understanding of what stewardship really is. With a stewardship awareness, Paul states,
“There are different kinds of spiritual gifts but the same Spirit; there are different forms of
service but the same Lord; there are different workings but the same God, who produces all
of them in everyone.” We are all gifted in different ways, but regardless the gifts and the
ways we are gifted, Paul makes it clear that all comes from God. When we reach that
insight, we are well on our way to a stewardship way of life.
As mentioned, this early Sunday in Ordinary Time, through the Gospel of John, introduces
us to what is in effect Jesus’ first miracle at the Wedding Feast in Cana. This occurrence is
only reported in the Gospel of St. John, but imagine the emotions at play. The Lord is there
having a good time like everyone else. Our Blessed Mother is probably watching Him and
remembering all that has happened, from His birth and development to now. St. Mary knew
and knows that He is the Son of God.
There are not many direct quotes from the Blessed Mother in scripture, but two of the more
noteworthy ones are in this Gospel. Mary tells Jesus simply, “They are out of wine.” Jesus,
her son but also the Son of God, responds “My hour has not yet come.” The loving Mother,
who knows her Son well probably smiles in a knowing way, and merely says to those
around, “Do whatever he tells you.” She knows that His time has indeed come; His work is
just beginning. Jesus, of course, provides the wine through a miracle with which we are well
familiar.
We tend to make our lives much more complex than may be necessary. It may be as simple
as us understanding, as St. Paul indicates, that God is in control. Then, although it is not
always simple or easily understood, we need to “do whatever He tells us.” God loves us; we
need to rejoice in that and love in return. We are each gifted with many wonderful gifts. Now
all we have to do is to do what God tells us over and over: love one another.
La semana pasada celebramos el
bautismo del Señor. Ese día de
fiesta representa un final y un comienzo. Era el final de la temporada de Navidad y el comienzo
del ministerio público de Jesús;
así como el principio de lo que
llamamos "tiempo ordinario" en la
iglesia. A veces los finales y comienzos se sobreponen, este domingo es el segundo domingo del
tiempo ordinario.
unas 250 millas de Corinto, había
muchos viajeros entre las dos ciudades, así que probablemente
Pablo se mantuvo informado de
las situaciones y acontecimientos
de la iglesia en Corinto. Con la
preocupación por los Corintios
volviendo a prácticas anteriores y
a la deriva de la iglesia, Pablo
escribió esta carta, donde el contenido refleja sus temores y sus
consejos.
Nuestras lecturas de esta semana no sólo marcan el inicio del
ministerio público de Jesucristo,
sino también contienen algunas
imágenes vivas y significados de
corresponsabilidad. En la primera
lectura, el profeta Isaías alaba el
amor de Dios hacia nosotros.
Isaías compara ese amor incondicional con los sentimientos de un
esposo hacia su esposa. La idea
fundamental que debemos entender es que si Dios se regocija por
nosotros, a su vez necesitamos
regocijarnos en el servicio al Señor y a los demás. Después de
todo, la alegría que viene de la
corresponsabilidad — es la alegría de servir a los demás sin
pensar en una recompensa.
Lo que San Pablo les dice a los
Corintios en esta lectura, también
podría aplicarse al significado de
lo que es la corresponsabilidad
realmente. San Pablo dice, "hay
diferentes tipos de dones espirituales pero el mismo Espíritu; hay
diversas formas de servicio pero
el mismo Señor; hay labores diferentes pero el mismo Dios quien
nos bendice a cada uno con dones especiales. Todos tenemos
diferentes dones y gracias, pero a
pesar de todo son regalos, Pablo
deja en claro que todo viene de
Dios. Cuando llegamos a ese conocimiento, estamos en el buen
camino para comenzar una forma
de vida corresponsable.
El Evangelio de Juan nos presenLa Primera Carta de San Pablo a ta lo que es en efecto el primer
los Corintios, de la que procede milagro de Jesús en las bodas de
nuestra segunda lectura, fue pro- Cana. Este suceso sólo se describe en el Evangelio de San Juan,
bablemente escrita por los Efepero imagínese las emociones
sios, mientras Pablo estuvo allí
que se estaban viviendo. El Sepor un período prolongado de
ñor estaba allí disfrutando la fiestiempo. Aunque Éfeso está a
ta como todos los demás. Nuestra Bendita Madre probablemente
lo vio y recordó todo lo que había
ocurrido desde su nacimiento
hasta ahora; María sabía que él
era el Hijo de Dios.
No hay muchas citas directas de
la Virgen María en las escrituras,
pero dos de las más notables se
encuentran en este evangelio.
María le dice a Jesús simplemente, "se acabó el vino". Jesús, su
hijo, siendo el hijo de Dios, responde "mi hora no ha llegado
aún." La Madre cariñosa, que conoce bien a su hijo probablemente sonríe y simplemente les dice
a los de alrededor, "hagan lo que
él les diga". Ella sabe que su
tiempo ha llegado; su obra apenas está comenzando. Jesús, por
supuesto, ofrece el vino a través
de un milagro que todos conocemos bien.
Tendemos a hacer nuestras vidas
mucho más complejas de lo que
pueden ser, cuando es tan simple
entender que Dios está en control, como San Pablo indica. Aunque no siempre es fácil de comprender, se trata de "hacer lo que
Él nos diga". Dios nos ama, necesitamos alegrarnos y amarlo a
cambio. Cada uno de nosotros
estamos dotados de muchos dones maravillosos. Ahora todo lo
que tenemos que hacer es amarnos los unos a otros, como Dios
nos dice una y otra vez.
