Dejen que los niños se acerquen a mí y no se lo impidan, porque el Reino de Dios es de los que son
como ellos.— Marcos 10:14
From the Pastor’s Desk… A covenant with no cracks
The union between a man and a woman is the model of all human relationships. This adventure is undertaken only by
those with a vocation. God intervenes to put his seal upon the free choice of the spouses: It is a consecration that divinizes
human love through the sacrament of marriage. This is a divine reality that no man or institution may break. To touch this reality would be sacrilege. Our generation urgently needs marriages forcefully shouts to men and woman around them: “Love exists!” This is the same as saying “God exists”.
God wants indissoluble marriage; The Second Vatican Council states: “As a mutual
gift of two persons, this intimate
union and the good of the children
impose total fidelity on the spouses and argue for an unbreakable oneness
between them.”
However, this pact of love is continuously threatened by death. When man separates what God has united he is plunged into a
deep failure. The spouses suffer, the children are hurt. It would be naïve to think that divorce solves repugnance.
If it is real, it needs to be faithful: It excludes any other love that could come to overshadow it. Love risks it all, forever!
There is no “bargaining” in love, you either take it or leave it! It has a definitive seal. You cannot enter into love watching the
clock, as if stingily calculating something provisional.
Society needs marriages that are “one heart and one soul”. Marriages that are open, caring, generous and happy.
Christian marriage, lived according to the Gospel, is a fountain of personal maturity, generosity, peace and happiness. The
vow of love made at the altar is irreversible – “all the days of my life, in sickness and in health, for richer for poorer” – it is not
guaranteed by two wills in love, but by God who makes it into a gift for the spouses and a sacrament for the world. As a gift, it
needs to be received with joy and humility; as a sacrament, it is announced to the world.
Let us promise to strengthen these convictions and proclaim them without shame. Let us be on the side of those marriages which live a complete love, committed in each and every circumstance of life and forever, marriages that strive for make
their love progress more each day, marriages that value the Christian celebration of marriage as a sacrament of God’s love,
and that assist younger Christians to understand and discover this value. God bless you, Fr. Oscar

Del escritorio del señor Cura… Un pacto sin griestas
La unión entre un hombre y una mujer es el modelo de todas las relaciones humanas. Esta aventura se lleva a cabo sólo
por aquellos con una vocación. Dios interviene para poner su sello sobre la libre elección de los cónyuges: Es una consagración
que diviniza el amor humano a través del sacramento del matrimonio. Esta es una realidad divina que ningún hombre o institución
pueden romperse. Para tocar esta realidad sería un sacrilegio. Nuestra generación necesita con urgencia los matrimonios fuerza
grita a los hombres y mujeres a su alrededor: "El amor existe!" Esto es lo mismo que decir "Dios existe".
Dios quiere que el matrimonio indisoluble; El Concilio Vaticano II afirma: "Como mutualgift de dos personas, esta unión
íntima y el bien de la total fidelidad childrenimpose de los cónyuges y abogan por una inquebrantable onenessbetween ellos." Sin
embargo, este pacto de amor se ve amenazada continuamente por muerte. Cuando el hombre se separa lo que Dios ha unido,
que se sumerge en un fracaso profundo. Los cónyuges sufren, los niños se ven perjudicados. Sería ingenuo pensar que el divorcio soluciona repugnancia.
Si es real, tiene que ser fiel: Se excluye cualquier otro amor que podría llegar a eclipsar la misma. Amor arriesga todo,
para siempre! No hay una "negociación" en el amor, ya sea tomas o lo dejas! Tiene un sello definitivo. No se puede entrar en el
amor mirando el reloj, como si el cálculo stingily algo provisional.
La sociedad necesita matrimonios que son "un solo corazón y una sola alma". Los matrimonios que están abiertos, cuidar, generoso y feliz. El matrimonio cristiano, vivido según el Evangelio, es una fuente de la madurez personal, la generosidad, la
paz y la felicidad. El voto de amor hecho en el altar es irreversible - "todos los días de mi vida, en la enfermedad y en la salud, en
la riqueza y en la pobreza" - no está garantizada por dos voluntades en el amor, pero por Dios que lo convierte en un regalo par a
los cónyuges y un sacramento para el mundo. Como regalo, tiene que ser recibido con alegría y humildad; como un sacramento,
se anunció al mundo.
Vamos comprometemos a fortalecer estas convicciones y proclamar sin vergüenza. Estemos en el lado de esos matrimonios que viven un amor completo, cometidos en cada circunstancia de la vida y para siempre, matrimonios que se esfuerzan para
hacer que su amor progresar más cada día, matrimonios que valoran la celebración cristiana del matrimonio como un sacramento
de el amor de Dios, y que ayudan a los cristianos más jóvenes a comprender y descubrir este valor. Dios les bendiga, P. Oscar

"A Prayer For the Upcoming Ordinary General
Assembly of the Synod of Bishops on the Family
in October"
Jesus, Mary and Joseph, in you we contemplate the splendor of true love,
to you we turn with trust.
Holy Family of Nazareth, grant that our
families too may be places of communion and prayer, authentic schools of the Gospel and small domestic Churches.
Holy Family of Nazareth,
may families never again
experience violence, rejection and division:
may all who have been hurt or scandalized find ready
comfort and healing.
Holy Family of Nazareth, may the approaching Synod of
Bishops make us once more mindful of the sacredness and
inviolability of the family,
and its beauty in God's plan.
Jesus, Mary and Joseph,
graciously hear our prayer. Amen.
