CATEDRAL DE ST. EUGENE’S – 4 del Septiembre del 2016
Vigésimo Tercer Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario
PARA LA PARTICIPACION EN LA MISA
CREDO
Creo en un solo Dios, Padre todopoderoso, Creador
del cielo y de la tierra, de todo lo visible y lo invisible.
Creo en un solo Señor, Jesucristo, Hijo único de
Dios, nacido del Padre antes de todos los siglos: Dios
de Dios, Luz de Luz, Dios verdadero de Dios verdadero, engendrado, no creado, de la misma naturaleza
del Padre, por quien todo fue hecho; Que por nosotros lo hombres, y por nuestra salvación bajó del cielo, Y por obra del Espíritu Santo se encarnó de María
la Virgen, y se hizo hombre; Y por nuestra causa fue
crucificado en tiempos de Poncio Pilato; padeció y
fue sepultado, Y resucitó al tercer día, según las Escrituras, y subió al cielo, y está sentado a la derecha
del Padre; Y de nuevo vendrá con gloria para juzgar
a vivos y muertos, y su reino no tendrá fin.
Creo en el Espíritu Santo, Señor y dador de vida,
que procede del Padre y del Hijo, Que con el Padre y
el Hijo recibe una misma adoración y gloria, y que
habló por los profetas.
Creo en la Iglesia, que es una, santa, católica y
apostólica. Confieso que hay un solo Bautismo para
el perdón de los pecados. Espero la resurrección de
los muertos y la vida del mundo futuro. Amén.

DESDE EL ESCRITORIO DEL PADRE ROA
El Matrimonio en el Catecismo de la Iglesia Católica
(Parte X)
No hay dudas que en los últimos meses ha existido una gran confusión sobre el santo Sacramento del Matrimonio. Continuamos con la enseñanza del Catecismo
de la Iglesia Católica sobre el Matrimonio y todo lo relacionado a este.
La apertura a la fecundidad
1652 "Por su naturaleza misma, la institución
misma del matrimonio y el amor conyugal están ordenados a la procreación y a la educación de la prole y con
ellas son coronados como su culminación" (GS 48,1):
«Los hijos son el don más excelente del matrimonio y contribuyen mucho al bien de sus mismos padres. El
mismo Dios, que dijo: "No es bueno que el hombre esté
solo (Gn 2,18), y que hizo desde el principio al hombre,
varón y mujer" (Mt 19,4), queriendo comunicarle cierta
participación especial en su propia obra creadora, bendijo
al varón y a la mujer diciendo: "Creced y multiplicaos" (Gn 1,28). De ahí que el cultivo verdadero del amor
conyugal y todo el sistema de vida familiar que de él procede, sin dejar posponer los otros fines del matrimonio,
tienden a que los esposos estén dispuestos con fortaleza
de ánimo a cooperar con el amor del Creador y Salvador,
que por medio de ellos aumenta y enriquece su propia
familia cada día más» (GS 50,1).
1653 La fecundidad del amor conyugal se extiende a los frutos de la vida moral, espiritual y sobrenatural
que los padres transmiten a sus hijos por medio de la educación. Los padres son los principales y primeros educadores de sus hijos (cf. GE 3). En este sentido, la tarea fundamental del matrimonio y de la familia es estar al servicio de la vida (cf FC 28).
1654 Sin embargo, los esposos a los que Dios no
ha concedido tener hijos pueden llevar una vida conyugal
plena de sentido, humana y cristianamente. Su matrimonio puede irradiar una fecundidad de caridad, de acogida
y de sacrificio.
VI. La Iglesia doméstica
1655 Cristo quiso nacer y crecer en el seno de la
Sagrada Familia de José y de María. La Iglesia no es otra
cosa que la "familia de Dios". Desde sus orígenes, el núcleo de la Iglesia estaba a menudo constituido por los que,
"con toda su casa", habían llegado a ser creyentes (cf Hch
18,8). Cuando se convertían deseaban también que se salvase "toda su casa" (cf Hch 16,31; 11,14). Estas familias
convertidas eran islotes de vida cristiana en un mundo no
creyente.
