CONFESSIONS

Eve of Holy Day & Thursday before First Friday: 4 -5:00pm
There were some interesting conceptions of sin prevalent
in the time of the Hebrew scriptures. There was the belief
that God punished sin immediately. Those who suffered
disease or misfortune were, therefore, sinners getting
their due from the Almighty.
Today's first reading hints at another kind of God. When
David admits his sin, Nathan declares, "The LORD on his
part has forgiven your sin" (2 Samuel 12:13b). Here was
not a vengeful God but a merciful God. What good news
that must have been to David and those who, like him,
could be honest enough to admit their sinfulness!
Jesus is the good news of God's mercy and forgiveness
incarnate. Without Jesus, perhaps the good news would
have been too good to believe, too difficult to imagine.
But there he is in today's Gospel, the God-man, forgiving
a sinner and declaring that she is forgiven because of her
great love.
There is hope, then, for the rest of us sinners, if only we
love enough!

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
Last week's "Treasure" no doubt raised an eyebrow or
two with the image of the deacons scurrying through the
streets of Rome, or perhaps galloping on horseback, with
fragments of eucharistic bread from the bishop's liturgy.
These would be dropped into the chalice at outlying celebrations, presided over by presbyters, to express unity
with the bishop, and perhaps also to remind the presbyters that they were not free agents. The Council of Laodicea forbade the custom of the fermentum in the year 348.
Generally, one of the rules of interpreting law is that people don't make laws about things that aren't happening.
So, by mid-fourth century, we have an important clue that
what had once been a Roman custom had become widespread.
Interestingly, when the Church of England (and its related bodies) went through a liturgical renewal in the midnineteenth century, they reclaimed this custom from the
mists of history. Today, it is the custom in some Anglican
dioceses for a fragment of the host from the bishop's Holy
Week liturgy (what we call the Chrism Mass) to be carried to every parish. On "Maundy Thursday" (our Holy
Thursday), the fragment is dropped into the chalice to
signify the parish's communion with the bishop. This
modern revival of the fermentum is different from the "comingling" action we are used to, in which a fragment of
the consecrated bread is dropped into the chalice just
before Communion.

They Are Babies!
the babies being born are neither
Democrats or Republicans
There are five (5) Non-Negotiable issues that are intrinsically evil
and must never be promoted by the law.
Abortion: the intentional killing of innocent unborn life
Euthanasia: the killing of elderly or disabled or infirm is wrong – never
mercy
Embryonic Stem Cell Research: Human embryos are human beings
and deserve the respect as such
Human Cloning: is opposition to the natural and dignity of human
sexuality given us by God
Homosexual “marriage”: legal recognition of any union other than 1
man & 1 woman in marriage is immoral
Catholics have a moral obligation to promote the common good
through the exercise of their voting privileges (ccc2240). Catholics
must avoid voting for any candidate who supports programs or laws
that are intrinsically evil. Be Aware – learn the candidates – register to
vote - then vote your moral conscience.
~~~~~~~
Until all are welcomed in life and protected in law.
Join us in the Rosary, Chaplet of Divine Mercy & song.
Many voices will end abortion & euthanasia.

ESPERANZA Y VIDA
Las Escrituras del hoy nos cuentan la historia de dos viudas. La
primera lectura relata la difícil situación en la que vivía la viuda
con la que el profeta Elías se quedó y el Evangelio cuenta la
historia de la viuda de Naín, en cada una de estas historias a
cada viuda el hijo único de ellas murió. En la cultura de esos
países en ese tiempo, el hijo era el sustento para la viuda y
quien además continuaba la descendencia familiar que era igual
a la inmortalidad. La viuda cuyo único hijo hubiera muerto
perdía toda esperanza.
Elías y Jesús son los restauradores de esperanza; ellos devuelven la vida a sus hijos. San Pablo, metafóricamente hablando,
revivió de la muerte a la vida cuando él se convirtió después de
la llamada de Dios de la que él habla en la segunda lectura.
¿A qué están llamados los cristianos hoy en día? Quizá no podemos revivir de la muerte, pero quizá podemos reanimar la
esperanza de un padre o una madre soltera. Quizá no podemos
convertir a un perseguidor como Pablo, pero si abiertamente
hacemos vida el Evangelio en nuestras vidas, podríamos tocar
una vida con la Buena Nueva.

LA PRESENCIA DE DIOS
Date cuenta que por encima de todo estás en la presencia de Dios... vacíate por completo y siéntate a esperar,

--San Romualdo
TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE
El día 9 de junio del año 1597, falleció el jesuita José de Anchieta proveniente de las Islas Canarias, España. Este santo
"apóstol de Brasil" fue beatificado en 1980 gracias a sus grandes esfuerzos humanitarios, literarios y evangelizadores en Brasil. Llegó a Brasil en 1553 donde aprendió Tupí, el idioma de
los nativos. Enseñaba a los indígenas, evangelizándolos con la
doctrina cristiana y educándolos en historia, filosofía y medicina. Eventualmente fundó el Colegio Jesuita de São Paulo de
Piratininga donde tuvo la audacia de educar, junto a los hijos de
los nativos, los hijos de los portugueses. Para este esfuerzo escribió muchos libros y manuales, cosa que le mereció ser el
primer escritor en Brasil.
Además de ser un escritor prolífico, este misionero dedicó su
vida a predicar el Evangelio en Brasil, país que cruzó a pie,
fundando pueblos y escuelas para los indígenas cristianos. Estos le llamaban el "santo volador" por la velocidad con que
caminaba. Su celo por el Evangelio lo motivaba a seguir caminando. Como dice el profeta Isaías: "Que hermosos son los pies
del que trae buena nuevas" (Isaías 52:7).
