Amos condemns the complacency of the
rich who seek only their own comfort.
In his parable of the rich man and
Lazarus, Jesus echoes Amos, exhorting
those who have to share with those who
have not. Self-sufficiency must never
blind us to the needs of others.
Only in this way do we keep God’s commandments in integrity and in truth.

The annual second collection for St. Vincent de Paul Georgia will take
place next weekend, September 24 and 25. This collection goes not only to
helping people in our area, but also to families and individuals in need
across the state. A large network of volunteers, community partners, and
a central support staff allows SVdP Georgia to provide life-changing
programs and services, including direct aid assistance, Client Choice Food Pantries, and
support that helps clients move toward stability and self-sufficiency. With a commitment
to compassion and respect, SVdP works tirelessly to help thousands of families and individuals in need.
Last year, St. Vincent de Paul Georgia delivered nearly $15 million in financial, material,
educational, and spiritual support to more than 126,000 people. This support helps keep
people in their homes, ensures that their utilities stay on, and puts food on their tables.
This special second collection helps St. Vincent de Paul continue this mission. Please
be generous during this collection, and know that your donation goes directly to help
families and individuals move from crisis to stability.

Thoughts From this Sunday’s Readings by Fr. John
Previous reflections can be found on his blog at
FrJohnMurphy.blogspot.com
The great 20th century journalist H. L. Mencken observed, “In any
combat between a rogue and a fool the sympathy of mankind is
always with the rogue.” A contemporary example of a sympathetic rogue is the Walt Disney character “Captain” Jack Sparrow.
Jack Sparrow is a sly, shifty pirate who uses his wits and negotiation skills to survive. He is the epitome of an antihero. Jesus presents us with a similar example in today’s gospel from Luke 16:113. In the parable of the dishonest steward we have a shrewd con
artist who ingratiates himself to his master’s debtors in order to
save himself. The master in turn commends the steward for his
ingenuity and creative problem solving.
Scripture scholars all over the world debate the various messages
in this parable. What they all agree on as the principle lesson is
that worldly people are “wiser,” more energetic and zealous in
their pursuit of wealth and material possessions than followers of
Jesus are in pursuing the Kingdom of God.
This message Jesus offers us is very straightforward. Our Lord
is not praising dishonest practices, he is simply observing the ingenuity, energy and effort the steward expended save himself. If we
applied as much ingenuity and energy to building God's kingdom
The Knights of Columbus as the steward did to save himself, our world would be a very

Reflexiones sobre las lecturas de este domingo del Padre Rico.
18 de septiembre del 2016
Vigésimo Quinto Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario
Dos Visiones de la Injusticia.
Al mal hay que vencerlo, pero también hay que saber de él lo que nos
puede enseñar. En síntesis, tal es el mensaje de las lecturas de este
domingo.
La primera lectura es una denuncia profética, tomada de uno de los
grandes adalides de lo que hoy llamaríamos la "justicia social." Se trata
de Amós, un campesino que fue llamado por Dios para una labor dura y
larga: desenmascarar las injusticias que se cometían en el reino de Israel
y en particular en santuario de Betel.
Lo más interesante del pasaje de hoy es que destapa la estrategia de
todos los que quieren ser pillos pero sin que se les note, es decir, dentro
de un cierto margen de "legalidad." Está el que quiere que pase pronto la
fiesta religiosa (la "luna nueva") para sacar su producto, el que altera la
balanza, el que vence el salvado como si fuera trigo, y así sucesivamente. Hoy los ejemplos serían otros seguramente: el que lava dólares, el
que maquilla la contabilidad de su empresa, el que aprueba en el parlamento leyes favorables para su familia o amigos, el mayorista que no
paga importación pero sin que se les note, es decir, dentro de un cierto
margen de "legalidad." esta el que altera la balanza, el que vence el
salvado como si fuera trigo, y así sucesivamente. Hoy los ejemplos
serían otros seguramente: el que lava dólares, el que maquilla la contabilidad de su empresa, el que aprueba en el parlamento leyes favorables
para su familia o amigos, el mayorista que no paga importación pero sí
la cobra al consumidor... Para todos ellos hay una palabra contundente
del profeta, que se resume en esto: "Dios lo ha visto. Puedes engañar a
todos, pero no a Dios."
Aprendiendo de los Tramposos.
Queda claro, pues, que el mal es detestable y que, aunque se pueda
engañar a mucha gente, nunca se podrá escapar del todo de los ojos de
Aquel que todo lo ve. El evangelio de hoy, sin embargo, nos sorprende
con una idea nueva: ¿por qué no aprender de los tramposos?
Hay dos cosas notables aquí. Lo primero es que el mal nunca nunca es
absoluto, en el sentido de que, como bien enseña Santo Tomás, nada hay
tan malo que no tenga algo bueno. Dice este mismo santo que, aunque
Dios es el Bien sin mezcla de mal, no existe el mal sin mezcla de bien.
Y eso lo comprueba uno de muchas maneras. Por ejemplo: para decir
una o dos mentiras hay que envolverla en alguna verdad; para atrapar a
alguien en un vicio hay que ofrecerle algún placer, y así en lo demás.
Por otra parte, si existiera una especie de "mal absoluto," ¿qué sería eso
si una especie de "anti-Dios," comparable al Dios Bueno? Otras religiones han hablado de "dos principios," uno completamente bueno y
otro completamente malo. Nuestra fe, en cambio, afirma un solo principio, nuestro Dios que es bueno y que todo lo hizo bueno, de modo que
si existe maldad en algunos seres (los demonios, los pecadores, etc.) esa
maldad es fundamentalmente un defecto en el bien original y una traición al plan original con el que fueron diseñados y creados.
De manera un poco más práctica, el evangelio de hoy nos invita a
asumir una actitud valiente y humilde a la vez frente a la creatividad de
la gente perversa. El mayordomo o administrador ese del texto de hoy se
vio en problemas y uso su cabeza para buscar una salida. ¿Somos
nosotros así de arrojados e inteligentes cuando nuestros proyectos de
evangelización o nuestros esfuerzos por un mundo más solidario parecen bloquearse? ¿O somos más bien de aquellos que se rinden cuando
aparece una mala cara, ocuando se retrasa un paquete o no nos atienden
bien en una oficina? ¿Eso todo el amor que tenemos a nuestra causa y a
Nuestro Señor?
Amén.

Blessed Trinity Shrine Retreat in Ft. Mitchell, AL is
offering a weekend retreat entitled Mercy in the Ministry of Jesus on September 23-25. Are we aware of our
deeper neeed when we ask God for something? What
was behind people’s need when they asked Jesus for mercy in the
Gospel? As we ponder Jesus’ healing presence among the people
of the first century, we may find his mercy in our midst. We will
consider some titles related to the merciful Jesus and how this
might relate to our own life. Presented by Fr. Paul Maier. Retreat
begins with registration at 7pm (ET) on Friday and concludes with
dinner at noon on Sunday. For registration information, call (334)
