PARISH OF ST. JOSEPH
April 24, 2016
From the Desk of Fr. Philip
In our Catholic Tradition we are constantly encouraged to listen to the inward conversation of Jesus within our souls. In Psalm
85:9 we read, “I will listen for what God, the Lord, has to say”. If we do not develop this habit of listening to God, we will get
used to listening to the world and buy into its ideologies. Naturally the world will not endorse listening to God which will
contradict its liberal messages. One simple way to avoid this bad effect is to develop the habit of reading the Word of God frequently and listen to the Lord speaking to us through the Bible. Then we will have a spontaneous precaution against whatever the
world is injecting into us contradicting the Lord’s message.
Blessed is the soul who hears the Lord speaking within her, who receives the word of consolation from His lips. Blessed are the
ears that catch the accent of divine whispering, and pay no heed to the murmurings of this world. Blessed are the ears that listen
to the truth which teaches within. Blessed are the eyes which closes to the exterior worldly things and are fixed upon those which
are interior. Blessed are they who develop the habit interior reflection and meditation, who try daily to prepare themselves more
and more to understand the mysteries. Blessed are they who long to give their time to God and who cut themselves off from the
hindrances of the world. Such people find more opportunities to serve the Lord either through the church or the various charities
and humanitarian endeavors of the church. When we have such a devout attitude it becomes imperative upon us to devout our
time, talent, and treasure for the glory of God and for improving the quality of life of God’s children in the world.
It will not surprise us to notice that any time we are reluctant to participate in the devotional activities in the church, or are
unwilling to get involved in the charitable programs of the church, we are under the influence of selfish worldly interests and we
shut our hearts from listening to God’s voice speaking in our souls.
Considering these reflections, if we close door of our senses to the world’s distractions, we can hear what the Lord our God speaks
within us. We can hear from the Lord “ I am your salvation, I am your peace and your life, remain with me and your find peace.
Dismiss all passing things and seek the eternal”. We become aware of the fact that temporal things are snares. All these creatures
can do nothing good for us if we are deserted by the creator. We have to learn to leave these things and make ourselves pleasing
and faithful to our creator so that we may attain the true happiness at the end of this life.
It is our responsibility to train our children the habit of listening to the Lord speaking in us. It will help them to recognize the
importance of obeying God and not to follow the promptings of the world in our daily activities. It will encourage them to be
more deeply committed to the faith and the faith community than to the world and its enticing agenda.
God bless you all.

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
The French Revolution swept the church in France away in an astonishing way, stripping the nation of every possible vestige of
the faith, not merely shuttering churches, but using them as staging areas for pagan raves and romps. While millions of faithful
simply went underground and hung on for the ride, even the seven-day week was demolished along with the names of the months.
What emerged from the chaos was the Napoleonic Code of 1792 governing church life, and therefore marriage law in France,
French Canada, and elsewhere. The code makes civil marriage mandatory for all citizens.
In practice, when the faithful marry, they go first to the City Hall. There, the mayor performs the civil marriage, usually accompanied by a patriotic speech about the duties of the citizen, particularly in the rearing of children. Then, typically after a
lunch, everyone goes off to change into more festive attire for the wedding liturgy, featuring consent, the exchange of rings, and
the nuptial blessing. Sadly, only a minority of citizens today celebrate even the civil form of the rite, and a fraction of those continue on to the church. For those who do celebrate the liturgy of marriage, however, there is near certainty that the spouses are active
worshipers, and that they will later present their children for baptism.—Rev. James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
TRUE CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY
SAINTS AND SPECIAL OBSERVANCES
Can you imagine a world such as the one put before us
in today’s scripture readings? Communities of believers
everywhere would support and encourage one another and
be identified as Christians by the way they love each other.
It would be a world with no tears, no death and mourning, no crying out in pain. “Behold, I make all things
new,” we hear the Son of God say in the second reading
from the book of Revelation (21:5).

Desde el Escritorio del P. Philip
En nuestra tradición católica nos anima constantemente a escuchar la conversación hacia el interior de Jesús en nuestras almas.
En el Salmo 85: 9 leemos: "Voy a escuchar lo que Dios, el Señor, tiene que decir". Si no desarrollamos este hábito de escuchar a Dios,
vamos a acostumbrar a la escucha del mundo y comprar en sus ideologías. Naturalmente, el mundo no va a apoyar la escucha de Dios
que contradice sus mensajes liberales. Una forma sencilla de evitar este efecto negativo es desarrollar el hábito de la lectura de la Palabra de Dios con frecuencia y escuchar al Señor que nos habla a través de la Biblia. A continuación, vamos a tener una precaución espontánea contra lo que el mundo está inyectando en nosotros que contradice el mensaje del Señor.
Bienaventurado el alma que oye el Señor habla en su interior, que recibe la palabra de consuelo de sus labios. Bienaventurados los
oídos que capturan el acento de susurros divina, y no prestan atención a las quejas de este mundo. Bienaventurados los oídos que escuchan la verdad que enseña dentro. Bienaventurados los ojos que cierra a las cosas del mundo exterior y están fijos en las que son
interiores. Bienaventurados aquellos que desarrollan la reflexión interior hábito y la meditación, que tratan diariamente para
prepararse más y más para entender los misterios. Bienaventurados los que tienen mucho para dar su tiempo a Dios y que cerrarse a los
obstáculos del mundo. Tales personas encuentran más oportunidades de servir al Señor ya sea a través de la iglesia o las diversas organizaciones benéficas y los esfuerzos humanitarios de la iglesia. Cuando tenemos una actitud tan devoto se vuelve imperativo sobre nosotros para devotos nuestro tiempo, talento y dinero para la gloria de Dios y para la mejora de la calidad de vida de los hijos de Dios en
el mundo.
Teniendo en cuenta estas reflexiones, si cerramos la puerta de nuestros sentidos a las distracciones del mundo, podemos oír lo que el
Señor nuestro Dios habla dentro de nosotros. Podemos escuchar del Señor "Yo soy tu salvación, yo soy tu paz y tu vida, quedo conmigo
y su hallazgo paz. Descartar todas las cosas que pasan y buscar lo eterno ". Nos damos cuenta de que las cosas temporales son trampas.
Todas estas criaturas no pueden hacer nada bueno para nosotros si estamos abandonados por el creador. Tenemos que aprender a
dejar estas cosas y hacernos agradable y fiel a nuestro creador para que podamos alcanzar la verdadera felicidad al final de esta vida.
Es nuestra responsabilidad de formar a nuestros hijos el hábito de escuchar al Señor que habla en nosotros. Se les ayudará a reconocer
la importancia de obedecer a Dios y no a seguir los impulsos del mundo en nuestras actividades diarias. Se les animará a ser más profundamente comprometidos con la fe y la comunidad de fe que al mundo y su agenda atractivo.
Dios los bendiga a todos.
Grupo de jovenes:
Los jóvenes van a pasar algo de su trabajo vacaciones de verano en una casa de Hábitat para la Humanidad.
Sus fechas serán: Sábado Mayo 14ª
sábado 4 de junio de
Junio Sábado 18 de
Si alguno de los adultos le gustaría unirse a la juventud que sería maravilloso cuanta más
gente mejor. Por favor, póngase en contacto con Fredda Otero.
COMUNIDAD CRISTIANA VERDADERO
¿Se imaginan un mundo como el que se puso delante de nosotros en lecturas de hoy? Las comunidades de creyentes de
todas partes apoyarían y fomentar entre sí e identificarse como cristianos por la forma en que se aman. Sería un mundo sin lágrimas, ni muerte y luto, ni llanto de dolor. "He aquí, yo hago nuevas todas las cosas", oímos el Hijo de Dios
dice en la segunda lectura del libro de Apocalipsis (21: 5).
Es este mundo de la visión de Juan solamente imaginario? Son estos fieles seguidores de los que Jesús oró sueño sólo de
salvador? Hoy en día se ponen ante nosotros como un objetivo valioso. ¿Cuánto más cerca podemos llegar a esta visión
de una verdadera comunidad cristiana en nuestras vidas hoy en día?

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE
El primero de mayo es reconocido como el día mundial del trabajo y conmemora seis mártires de Chicago, quienes
fueron fusilados en 1886 cuando la policía trató de impedir una pelea campal durante una huelga de obreros. Curiosamente esta fecha no es reconocida por Estados Unidos pero sí por muchos países latinoaméricanos. En 1954, el Papa
Pió XII apoyó los derechos del obrero incluyendo a san José Obrero en el calendario cristiano. Esta fiesta celebra y recuerda la doctrina social de la Iglesia católica, una doctrina que insiste que: “El mensaje cristiano no aparta a las personas de la edificación del mundo, ni les lleva a despreocuparse del bien de sus semejantes, sino que les impone esta colaboración como un deber” (Gaudiam et Spes 34).
Es justo conmemorar a san José como obrero en el día mundial del trabajo, porque este santo varón nos recuerda
que al trabajar uno colabora con Dios en la creación continua del mundo y de la humanidad. El trabajo no sólo es derecho humano es una responsabilidad que se debe tomar con amor al prójimo. —Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
