I recently received a letter from Donald
Cardinal Wuerl and it reads as follows:
“…..I offer my sincere appreciation to the entire
parish community of Saint Bartholomew for your generous
response to the 2016 Cardinal’s Appeal. Your efforts have
resulted in reaching and exceeding your parish goal of
$182,263. As of April 1, 2016, 269 pledges in the amount of
$234,656 have been received Thank you!”
I thank you, too, for your generous commitment and
goodness. The kindness of you, the families of St.
Bartholomew parish, significantly helps the archdiocese to
continue to provide pastoral, charitable, educational, and social
service ministries. I am equally grateful to all those
parishioners who made a monetary contribution to the Appeal.

DECIMO DOMINGO ORDINARIO
05 DE JUNIO DE 2016
El Evangelio de hoy nos narra otro milagro de Jesús, el de
la resurrección de un joven que ha fallecido. Este milagro
es precedido por el de la sanación del siervo del oficial
romano. Las palabras que Jesús pronuncia durante este
suceso revelan aspectos importantes de su ministerio.
Primero, Jesús ha venido a consolar a los afligidos.
Segundo, Jesús tiene poder hasta sobre la muerte. El que
Jesús hable con tanta autoridad y que la tenga sobre algo
tan poderoso como la muerte es muy significativo porque,
por un lado, solo Dios tiene autoridad absoluta; y por otro,
porque el tener poder sobre la muerte significa tener
poder sobre el pecado, pues la muerte es el resultado
final del pecado. Al hablar y obrar como lo hace Jesús, los
testigos de aquel suceso tuvieron que reconocer que es
Dios quien habla y actúa por medio de Jesús, es decir que
Jesús es el enviado de Dios. Sin embargo los que fueron
testigos de este milagro no lo reconocen todavía como el
Mesías, como el hijo de Dios, confundiéndolo con un gran
profeta, posiblemente Elías, ya que todos estaban
familiarizados con la historia del milagro de la
resurrección del hijo de la viuda que realizó este gran
profeta y que se narra en la primera Lectura de el primer
libro de los Reyes. Los milagros de Jesús son parte de su
predicación y signos de la salvación que Dios, por medio
de su Hijo, ofrece a toda la humanidad.
