ST. FRANCIS OF ASSISI
Feast Day October 4
Francis of Assisi was a poor little man who astounded and inspired the Church
by taking the gospel literally—not in a narrow fundamentalist sense, but by
actually following all that Jesus said and did, joyfully, without limit and without
a sense of self-importance.
Serious illness brought the young Francis to see the emptiness of his frolicking
life as leader of Assisi's youth. Prayer—lengthy and difficult—led him to a
self-emptying like that of Christ, climaxed by embracing a leper he met on the
road. From the cross in the neglected field-chapel of San Damiano, Christ told
him, "Francis, go out and build up my house, for it is nearly falling down."
Francis became the totally poor and humble workman.
Parish Office Hours:
He must have suspected a deeper meaning to "build up my house." But he

would have been content to be for the rest of his life the poor "nothing" man

actually putting brick on brick in abandoned chapels. He gave up all his

LORD: “INCREASE OUR FAITH.”
“If you have faith as small as a mustard seed....” This is what Jesus teaches
us TODAY as he taught his disciples when they directly asked him, Increase
our faith.
With the social and racial conflicts last week and chaos in the world in
general, we can attest this are difficult times for faith. Doubts appear in the
hearts of many of our brothers at a religious, political and economic level;
there is a great amount of disappointment, indifference and scepticism. The cry of many of our
brothers is the same as that of the apostles: “increase our faith.” If we reach the root of the
problem, we will see primarily that when we become distant from God we lose the meaning of
our life and also the value in the “others.”
Jesus’ answer has in account the intention of the disciples. They ask for quantity; he asks for
quality! However, the petition is fair because faith is something that we ask from God. We are
conscious that it is his gift, the fundamental gift from God, from which all other gifts find their
support. It is all in the Christian life because it gives us a light that
illuminates everything, because it is happiness, optimism and the
strength of God. All that is given to us to respond with enthusiasm to
the invitation that Jesus makes to us to follow him. Faith does not
only help us to believe in Him and in what is beyond the material
and the physical, but it is also a valuable tool to find ourselves.
Let us ask for a vibrant faith from God. We truly need it. Let us
ponder on our own faith, making it alive through prayer, meditation and participation in the
church life in our parish(es), groups and movements. But let us consciously realize that the faith,
that is not cultivated through a deep relationship with God in prayer, ends in frustration.
Only the one who has faith is able to move mountains and put into practice the creative and
transforming dynamism of the kingdom. The first believer in the Gospel of Luke was Mary, for
which Elizabeth proclaims her as happy for believing (Lk 1:45); we also can be joyful servants.
We need a good dose of faith to be able to live in a world like ours. But instead, laicism and
secularism pretend to erase faith from our social existence. One can be a Christian believer, but
in a “private” way, without it affecting at all our options, decisions and our socio-political
actions. One can be a “Sunday” Christian, but beware, “Do not let it show Monday through
Saturday at work!” We are heaped with so many unjust, absurd and brutal deaths, that it
becomes difficult to believe that all this might have a meaning, that the love and the providence
of God might have a word to say about all this, and that the Resurrection might be stronger than
sin and death. This is why we need to plead to God every day: “Increase our faith!”
Father Cesar.

THE MONTH OF OCTOBER
Is dedicated to the holy rosary, one of the
best known of all Catholic devotions. The
best way to celebrate the month is praying
the rosary. “The rosary marks the rhythm
of human life, bringing it into harmony with the rhythm
of God’s own life” (Pope John Paul II). October
includes the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary
(October 7). Mass will be celebrated at 12:15PM ICC.
A special blessing of rosary beads will be done at the
conclusion of the mass. All are welcome.
We will also pray 1 decade of the Rosary 15 minutes
before all weekend Masses in October,

LETTURA DEL GIORNO
AUMENTIAMO LA NOSTRA FEDE
Il brano del Vangelo di oggi e’parte della
categoria che e’ venuta ad essere chiamata
“i detti difficili” di Gesu’. Difficili a
capirli, difficili ad applicarli alla vita di
oggi.
La richiesta degli apostoli, ‘Aumenta la nostra fede”
e’ in risposta ad un precedente “detto difficile” su
quanto frequentemente siamo chiamati a perdonare
gli altri.
Curiosamente, Gesu’ sembra non inclinato a
perdonare nel rispondere alla loro richiesta, o nel
descrivere il modo in cui devono servire gli altri.
Gesu’ usa esagerazioni per farci capire come Dio e’
presente nella nostra vita, e come siamo incoraggiati
a vivere come se Dio fosse con noi. Non ci si chiede
di sradicare alberi o di scaraventare montagne nel
mare. La fede che abbiamo e’ adeguata al compito che
siamo chiamati a fare: diffondere il Vangelo col
nostro esempio. E vivere quell’esempio non e’ fatto
per nostra gratificazione o riconoscimento, ma per la
gioia di aiutare il mondo a udire la Buona Novella.

VIRTUS SESSION
OCTOBER 12, 2016
ST. JOACHIM CHURCH - 5:30PM TO 8:30PM
Our Lady of the Angels Parish is committed to inform
and teach our community to protect our children and
youth from the perils of sexual abuse. We work to
establish safe environments for the children and
youth under the care of our community and to report
and investigate the allegations of sexual abuse that
involve minors. As part of our efforts, we are inviting
all our parishioners, volunteers and workers to a
session of VIRTUS that covers the scope and nature
of the sexual abuse and also provides the participants
with the steps an adult in charge of children can follow
to protect them. This session will teach us how to
protect our children and to identify signs of abuse. All
are welcome!
READING OF THE DAY
INCREASE OUR FAITH
Today’s Gospel passage falls under the
category that has come to be known as the
“hard sayings” of Jesus. Hard to
understand, hard to apply to life today.
The Apostles’ request, “increase our
faith,” is in response to a previous “hard saying” about
how frequently we are called upon to forgive others.
Curiously, Jesus seems rather unforgiving in responding
to their request, or in describing the manner in which
they are to serve others.
Jesus uses exaggerations to wake us up to how
God is present in our lives, and how we are urged to live
if God is with us. None of us is called upon to uproot
trees or cast mountains into the sea. The faith we have
is adequate for the task we are called upon to do: spread
the gospel by our witness. And living that witness is
done not for self-gratification or recognition, but out of
the joy of helping the world to hear the Good News.
First Reading: Habakkuk 1:2-3; 2:2-4
Second Reading: 2 Timothy 1-6-8, 13-14
Gospel: Luke 17:5-10
Faith is gracious gift from God. It can neither be
earned nor bought, only responded to with works of
love and service. A vibrant faith can make us strong,
loving, and wise, confident that God will guard us
from all harm. He is the Rock of our salvation. From
ORDO 2016
REFLECTION QUESTIONS OF THE WEEK
ADULT: Name a time this past week when you
thanked and praised God for your life.
CHILD: Name a time this past week when you
stopped to thank God for all that you have been given.
Within your will, O Lord, all things are established,
and there is none that can resist your will. For you
have made all things, the heaven and the earth, and all
that is held within the circle of heaven; you are the
Lord of all. (Cf. Esther 4:17)

SEÑOR: AUMÉNTANOS LA FE
"Si tuvieran fe como un granito de mostaza…" Es la enseñanza que Jesús nos da
HOY así como lo hizo a sus discípulos ante una petición directa que le hacen:
"Auméntanos la fe".
Con los conflictos raciales y sociales de la semana que pasó y el caos del mundo
en general, podemos afirmar que corren tiempos difíciles para la fe, la duda
aparece en el corazón de muchos hermanos tanto a nivel religioso, político, o económico; hay mucho
desencanto, indiferencia escepticismo, el grito de muchos hermanos es el mismo de los apóstoles:
"Auméntanos la fe". Si vamos a lo profundo del problema, vemos principalmente como al alejarnos
de Dios, perdemos el sentido de nuestra vida y el valor incluso del “otro”.
La respuesta de Jesús tiene en cuenta la intención de los discípulos, ellos piden cantidad, él les pide
calidad!. Sin embargo, la petición es justa, dado que la fe es algo
que pedimos a Dios, conscientes de que es un don suyo, el don
fundamental de Dios sobre el que los demás dones encuentran
apoyo, lo es todo en la vida cristiana, porque nos da una luz que
todo lo ilumina, porque es alegría, optimismo, fuerza de Dios que
nos es dada para responder con entusiasmo a Jesús en la
invitación que nos hace a seguirlo. La fe no solo nos ayuda a creer
en El y en lo que está más alla de lo material y físico, es además
una herramienta valiosa para encontrarnos a nosotros mismos.
Pidamos a Dios una fe viva. La necesitamos mucho. Profundicemos en nuestra propia fe, hagámosla
vida mediante la oración, el estudio, la lectura de la Palabra, la meditación, la participación en la
vida de la Iglesia, en nuestras parroquias, grupos, movimientos; pero asumamos conscientes que una
fe que no se cultiva mediante el trato profundo con Dios en la oración, termina en la frustración.
Sólo quien tiene fe es capaz de de mover montañas y poner práctica el dinamismo re-creador y
transformador del Reino. La primera creyente del evangelio de Lucas es María, a quien Isabel
proclama feliz por creer (Lc 1,45), también nosotros podemos ser siervos llenos de gozo.
Necesitamos una buena dosis de fe para vivir en un mundo como el nuestro. Por una parte, el
laicismo y el secularismo pretenden borrar la fe de su existencia social. Se puede ser creyente cristiano,
pero de forma “privada”, sin que afecte en absoluto a nuestras opciones, decisiones y actuaciones
sociopolíticas. Se puede ser cristiano "de domingo", pero eso sí: ¡que no se nos note de lunes a sábado
en el trabajo! Estamos llenos de tantas noticias de muerte injusta, absurda y brutal, que resulta difícil
creer que todo esto tenga un sentido, que el amor y la providencia de Dios tengan una palabra que
decir en todo esto, y que la Resurrección sea más fuerte que el pecado y que la muerte. Por eso, hay
que pedir al Señor todos los días: "¡Auméntanos la fe!".

LECTURA DEL DÍA
AUMENTA NUESTRA FE
El pasaje del Evangelio de hoy pertenece a
la categoría llamada “lecciones difíciles”
de Jesús. Difíciles de entender, difíciles
de aplicar hoy día. La petición de los
apóstoles, “aumenta nuestra fe” es en
respuesta a la previa “lección difícil” sobre cuántas
veces somos llamados a perdonar a los demás.
Curiosamente, Jesús no parece muy dispuesto a
perdonar al responder a su petición, o al describir la
manera en que han de servir a los demás.
Jesús usa exageraciones para demostrarnos cómo está
Dios presente en nuestra vida, y cómo somos llamados
a vivir si Dios está con nosotros. Ninguno de nosotros
está llamado a desarraigar árboles o a lanzar montañas
al mar. La fe que tenemos es adecuada para la tarea a
que hemos sido llamados: esparcir el evangelio con
nuestro ejemplo. Y vivir ese testimonio no buscando
autosatisfacción o reconocimiento, sino por el gozo de
ayudar al mundo a oír la Buena Nueva.

SAN FRANCISCO DE ASÍS
Día Festivo 4 de octubre
Francisco de Asís era un pobre hombre que asombró e inspiró a la Iglesia mediante su adopción literal del
evangelio, no en un sentido fundamentalista, sino por realmente seguir todo lo que Jesús dijo e hizo, con alegría,
sin límite y sin una pizca de auto-importancia.
Una enfermedad grave llevó al joven Francisco a darse cuenta del vacío de su vida retozando como líder de la
juventud de Asís. La oración, larga y difícil, lo llevó a un auto-vaciado, así como Cristo y llegó a su culminación
al abrazar a un leproso que encontró en el camino. Desde la cruz en la capilla de San Damián, un campo descuidado,
Cristo le dijo: “Francisco, sal y construye mi casa, porque se está cayendo.” Francisco se convirtió totalmente en
un pobre y humilde obrero.
Debió sospechar un significado más profundo en el “construye mi casa. Pero él se hubiera conformado con ser por
el resto de su vida “nada”, un simple hombre poniendo ladrillo sobre ladrillo en las capillas abandonadas. Renunció
a todo lo material que había, incluso acumuló todas sus ropas ante su padre terrenal, quien exigía retribución por
los “dones” que Francisco les ofrecía a los pobres, de modo que Francisco sería totalmente libre al decir, “Padre
nuestro que estás en los cielos.” Él fue durante un tiempo considerado como un religioso "extremista", pidiendo
limosna de puerta en puerta cuando no podía obtener dinero para su trabajo, provocando tristeza o disgusto en los
corazones de sus antiguos amigos, burlado por los que no piensan.
Pero la autenticidad lo dirá. Algunas personas comenzaron a darse cuenta de que este hombre realmente estaba
tratando de ser cristiano. Él efectivamente creyó lo que Jesús dijo: “¡Anuncien el Reino! No lleven nada para el
camino: ni bastón, ni bolsa, ni pan, ni dinero, ni dos mudas de ropa” (Lucas 9:1-3). La primera regla para los
seguidores de Francisco fue una colección de textos de los Evangelios. No tuvo ni idea de fundar una orden, pero
ya que había comenzado, él la protegió y aceptó todas las estructuras legales necesarias para apoyarla. Su devoción
y lealtad a la Iglesia fue incondicional y altamente ejemplar en una época en que los movimientos diversos de la
reforma parecían romper la unidad de la Iglesia. Él se debatía entre una vida dedicada por completo a la oración o
una vida activa predicando la Buena Nueva. Se decidió a favor de la predicación, pero siempre volvía a la soledad
cuando podía. Durante los últimos años de su vida, la cual fue muy corta, (murió a los 44), estuvo medio ciego y
gravemente enfermo. Dos años antes de su muerte recibió los estigmas; las verdaderas y dolorosas heridas de Cristo
en sus manos, pies y costado. El Santo Patrón de: los Animales, la Ecología, de Italia y los Mercantes. Por favor
acompáñenos en la celebración de su vida el martes 4 de octubre en la Iglesia San Joaquín a las 12:15PM, se hará
la bendición de las mascotas después de la misa.
