May 8, 2016, The Ascension of the Lord
Letter From The Pastor
Dear Parishioners:
The other day I removed several non-Catholic Bibles from the adoration chapel. “But,
Monsignor, what’s the problem? Aren’t bibles pretty much the same?” Not really! Actually, they
are quite different. The most obvious difference is found in the Old Testament, which has 46
books in the Catholic version, the Protestant version has 39. In addition, some Eastern Orthodox
bibles have even more books.
Several centuries before Jesus, Jews were captured (Babylon), moved to other countries,
engaged in commerce, etc. They did not live in Israel alone. Many of them learned other languages and could no longer read the Scriptures. Jewish leaders decided to translate the Bible into
Greek. This translation is known as the Septuagint was the Greek translation of the Hebrew Old Testament.
It was transcribed by 72 translators in Alexandria, Egypt and completed about 150 B.C. This Greek translation of the
scriptures was needed, as over the centuries the Hebrew language had become a dead language. And as such the Jews
of the dispersion needed the scriptures in their vernacular language, namely Greek. The result was a new translation of
the Bible known as the Septuagint.
This is the Bible Jesus and the early Church used. Circa 75 AD, Jewish rabbis gathered at Jamnia and held a
“council.” They decided that the canon of scripture should only contain books written in the original Hebrew be considered official. They removed the books of Tobit, Judith, Wisdom, Ecclesiasticus, Baruch, First and Second Maccabees, as well as additions to Esther and Daniel. This is the Old Testament found in Protestant Bibles in our time.
The early Church used the Septuagint and the newer writing of Paul, Peter, John, etc. They considered other writings,
which are fully in accord with the Scripture and Church teaching. It took several years into centuries to finalize officially the actual Canon now used by Catholics and Protestants. The councils [more properly Synods] of Carthage in
393 AD and Hippo 397 AD set the official list. The Council of Trent reaffirmed this in 1546 AD.
When choosing an edition of the Bible I recommend that you purchase a Catholic version/translation. Many
Protestations writers begin from the position that Original Sin put mankind into the state of total depravity. We believe
that Original Sin put us into a fallen human nature but good. That can influence how one might translated a passage
from Scripture.
This can get quite technical and I am giving a very brief overview of the issue. The following web site, http://
www.catholiceducation.org/en/controversy/common-misconceptions/catholic-and-protestant-bibles-what-is-thedifference.html , can fill in more details. CatholicEducation.org is an excellent site for knowledge, encouragement and
growth for our faith. I highly recommend you find yourself frequently seeking answers.
We know that Jesus is in heaven with his Father and the Holy Spirit
As well as with us in the Scriptures and especially in the Eucharist. When you
read and pray over the words revealed by God in the Bible, allow your heart
the freedom to touch by the wisdom of Love who loves you infinitely. Jesus
did not stay on the mountaintop in glory but walked down into to the valley of
everyday life with its struggles.
Even though he is in heaven, he knows our struggles and pains. He
has suffered more than any of us will suffer. He knows what we are going
through and will never abandon us. In his mercy, he revealed in the Ascension
the glory to come that we not lose the hope of God’s presence in our everyday
lives.
I pray one day, you will have the opportunity to visit Mount Tabor and celebrate Mass. When the sun hits the
window, it feels like you are standing with Peter, James and John. During the week reread the Gospel of the Ascension.
Imagine yourself witnessing Jesus with Moses and Elijah. What runs through your mind, heart and soul?
God bless and have a great time with Jesus on the mountaintop.
Pax et bonum,
Msgr. Bill

Volunteer Accountant Needed
Fr. John Ugobueze, who lives here at St. Vincent de Paul Parish, has begun a multi-year project to build a high quality, Western
-style hospital in a rural area of Nigeria. A team of experienced professionals in the healthcare field including a hospital design
architect and a major Houston law firm have already volunteered to help. To complete our team of professionals we will need the
assistance of an Accountant. Because of the transnational nature of this project we would prefer the pro bono assistance of a national
accounting firm that has an association with a Nigerian accounting firm.
Early in his vocation, Fr. John served for 10 years as pastor of a rural Nigerian parish where he personally worked with
countless poor, sick, disabled, and mentally disabled parishioners who often suffered serious illnesses. Some suffered painful deaths
because quality medical services were too far away or too expensive. This hospital project for rural Nigeria has the blessing of the
Nigerian Archbishop of Onitsha, Anambra state.
If you are a Accountant with a major accounting firm, please volunteer to help Fr. John in moving this work of mercy closer to
becoming a reality. You may leave a message for Fr. John at the Parish Office: 713-667-9111.

Fr. Thomas Richter, drafted as a “pinch hitter” in the absence of a wildly popular speaker, enthralls his unsuspecting listeners with a re-telling of the Parable of the
Prodigal Son, focusing special attention on the words of
the jubilant father to his faithful, jealous child. “My son,”
the father said, ‘you are always with me, and everything I
have is yours.’ Fr. Richter goes on to explain in familybased examples that the goodness of God cannot be
earned and that personal holiness cannot be achieved by
independent will apart from God, but rather by our total
dependence on Him and our earnest desire to accept the
good things He wishes to give us.

REVISITING OUR BAPTISM
A mere seven weeks ago thousands of new Church members were baptized. Their new life in Christ has once again
infused new life into the Church. Their new-found faith has
inspired and bolstered the faith of those who have followed
Christ for many years. As the Easter season nears its end,
we revisit the scene of our baptisms. In the second reading
we hear Christ calling us: “Come. . . . Let . . . the one who
wants it receive the gift of life-giving water” (Revelation
22:17). But our baptism is not one of water only. John refers to washed robes, and we know that this washing is to
be “in the blood of the Lamb.” To make sure we get this
message, we have today’s first reading from Acts. It is the
story of Stephen, the first Christian to be killed for his faith
in Jesus. We remember the promise and also the cost of
being a disciple of Christ. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
The Second Vatican Council decreed that the devotional
life of the Church should be examined and reformed with an
eye towards expressing Easter faith. This encouragement for
creativity has deep roots in our tradition, and some attempts at
reform show great promise. One of the great treasures in our
devotional repertoire is a familiar feature of Lent: the Way of
the Cross. The faithful walk a path recalling the events of
Christ’s passion, a contemplative experience increasingly enriched these days by scripture and song. There are fourteen stations in the usual configuration, although in recent years, a fifteenth station of the Empty Tomb has been added. Why stop
there? Why not develop a similar journey structured on the
theme of the appearances of the Risen Lord?
Over the last decade, a Via Lucis, or “Way of Light,” has
developed as a companion to the Via Crucis. It has been celebrated at the Vatican and is catching on elsewhere. There are
fourteen stations, beginning with the Women Carrying Spices
to the Tomb, continuing with the familiar appearances of the
Lord at Emmaus, the Upper Room, the shore of Tiberias. The
journey ends with stations recalling the Apostles’ wait with
Mary for the advent of the Spirit, and with Pentecost. This is
fertile ground indeed for the genius of artists, musicians,
preachers, and liturgists. This is a living example of how many
of our traditions are born to fill a great spiritual need, and
spread to every corner of the Church. It may even come soon to
a church near you. Maybe next Eastertime!

La Ascensión del Señor, 8 de mayo de 2016
¿A DÓNDE VAMOS?
Sólo han pasado cuarenta días desde que los discípulos miraban asombrados la tumba vacía.
Desde entonces Jesucristo ha estado con ellos en su cuerpo glorioso, enseñándolos y animándolos a
que se mantengan fieles al mensaje de salvación. Pero ahora están reunidos y parece que los discípulos aún están pensando en las cosas de este mundo: “Señor, ¿es ahora cuando vas a restablecer el
Reino de Israel?” le preguntan (Hechos 1:6). Uno se puede imaginar a Jesús sacudiendo en silencio
la cabeza y pensando: “¿Todavía no entienden?” Pero Jesús es paciente una vez más, sabiendo que
pronto los discípulos comprenderán. Y al igual
que en la tumba, dos hombres aparecen y preguntan a los discípulos: “¿Qué miran? Jesús ha
ascendido al cielo y ustedes tienen trabajo que
hacer, de modo que ¡vayan a hacerlo!”
ESPERAMOS EN JERUSALÉN
En la lectura del Evangelio de Lucas, se les dice
a los discípulos que en Jerusalén esperen recibir
la promesa del Padre, o sea, el poder del Espíritu
Santo. ¿Qué significa esto? Jesús ha dicho que
su mensaje y su ministerio son algo nuevo. Dijo
que llamaba a sus discípulos a un nuevo modo
de pensar, de actuar y de ser. ¿Qué significa que Jesús está en el cielo con el Padre y sin embargo
está siempre con nosotros en la tierra? Pronto los discípulos entenderán, como entendemos nosotros, que es mediante la obra de la Iglesia, la comunidad de los bautizados, que Cristo camina en
medio de nosotros cada día, difundiendo la Buena Nueva de la salvación. Es por el poder de Cristo
en su Iglesia que podemos rezar con Pablo en su carta a los Efesios: “Que el Dios de Cristo Jesús
nuestro Señor, el Padre de la gloria, se manifieste a ustedes dándoles un espíritu de sabiduría, para
que lo puedan conocer” (Efesios 1:17).

RECORDAMOS NUESTRO BAUTISMO Hace sólo
siete semanas que miles de nuevos miembros de la Iglesia
fueron bautizados. Su nueva vida en Cristo de nuevo infunde renovada vida en la Iglesia. Esta fe nueva ha inspirado y alentado la fe de los que han sido seguidores de
Cristo por muchos años. Al acercarse el fin del tiempo de
Pascua, recordamos la escena de nuestro bautismo. En la
segunda lectura oímos a Cristo que nos llama: “Ven… el
que quiera, que venga a beber gratis del agua de la vida” (Apocalipsis 22:17). Pero nuestro bautismo no es sólo
de agua. Juan hace referencia a lavar sus ropas, y sabemos
que este lavar es “en la sangre del Cordero”. Para estar
seguros de que entendemos este mensaje, tenemos la primera lectura de hoy de los Hechos. Es la historia de Esteban, el primer cristiano que sufre la muerte por su fe en
Jesús. Recordamos la promesa y también el costo de ser
discípulo de Cristo. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
