Matsiko Orphan Choir to Perform
in a FREE Concert at Holy Angels
on August 14th
The Matsiko Orphan Choir will perform a FREE concert at
Holy Angels Church (82 Possum Park Rd., Newark) on
August 14th at 5:30pm. The choir will also sing a few pieces
at the 10:00 AM Liturgy at Holy Angels on the same day. This
choir has sung for Google Inc., Disneyland, at the World Cup,
for the LA Dodgers, for Presidents and other Heads of State
and Government. A free will collection will be taken up at the
end of the concert.
18 children from Peru, Liberia and India are currently touring
the U.S. as a part of the Matsiko World Orphan Choir. The
choirs have performed across the country in school
assemblies, retirement homes, multicultural events, festivals,
churches, markets and malls, corporate headquarters, and
even professional sporting events, sharing a message of
hope for the world’s 600 million orphaned and at-risk
children. Matsiko performs energetic and dynamic cultural
dances in full vibrant costumes and sings primarily original
songs. A Matsiko performance is a multicultural event that
has been deemed a “world treasure” on the Disneyland Parks
Blog.

A Vocation Reflection
20 Sunday in Ordinary Time
th
Today’s reading from the Letter to the Hebrews tells us that we
are “surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses”. Every day,
deacons, priests, religious sisters and religious brothers serve
as witnesses by bringing the love of the invisible God to people
through visible works and ministry. Is it possible that God
might be calling you to a lifetime of ministry in the Church?

I Lectura Jeremías 38: 4-6, 8-10
Salmo Responsorial . Salmo 40
“Señor, date prisa en ayudarme”
II Lectura Hebreos 12: 1-4
Evangelio Lucas 12: 49-53
La lectura sigue el hilo del discurso que hemos
venido escuchando en los domingos anteriores.
En ella podemos distinguir dos momentos. El
primero va sobre la vehemencia de Jesús por ver
culminada su venida, y el segundo sobre la
división tras esa culminación.
Jesús expresa su vehemente deseo con dos
figuras aparentemente opuestas. El mismo
lenguaje que usó Juan Bautista para que el
pueblo pudiera identificar al Mesías. La venida de
jesús significa un fuego destructor. Los sabios
judíos hablaban de que la violencia del primer
mundo fue destruida por el agua, y la del
segundo será por el fuego. Pero así como Dios
salvó al justo del diluvio, lo mismo hará con sus
fieles en la segunda ocasión. Eso es lo que
significa el mesías la aniquilación de toda la
violencia y pecado y la esperanza de que nazca
una humanidad nueva, por el espíritu derramado
tras la muerte de Jesús, su bautismo.
Anuestras comunidades cristianas les hace falta
recuperar la vemehencia escatólogica, por una
humanidad renovada y por la radicalidad de la fe
en Jesús.

¿Qué me mueve a amar a Dios, el miedo o el
amor?
¿Qué me inspiran las lecturas de este domingo?
¿Que es lo que me cuesta más cambiar en mi
vida?
