A letter from our Pastor
My Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
In 1 Corinthians 10:27 Saint Paul writes: “Because the loaf of bread is one, we, though many, are one body, for we all
partake of the one loaf.” This is a powerful reflection on who we are as a part of the Body of Christ. We are invited to remember
that every time we are present at Mass and come forward to share in Holy Eucharist, we affirm that we are part of the Body of Christ
and that we do not live our faith in isolation.
As we continue to examine who we are as Catholic believers and exactly what it is that we believe, we will take a look at
the Sacrament of Holy Eucharist; we will consider who and what it is exactly that we celebrate when we participate in Mass.
When we celebrate Mass we “remember” that the Eucharist is a “sacrificial meal” which makes present the cross and resurrection of
Jesus. The Eucharist, then, is a memorial of Christ’s “Passover;” in other words, the work of salvation which Christ accomplished
by his life, death and resurrection. The Catechism of the Catholic Church teaches us that the Eucharist is the “source and summit of
Christian life. It is a “sacrificial meal” in which we, the worshipping community, commune personally with Jesus and become
renewed in grace as we share in “food for the journey.”
As Catholics, we are expected to attend Mass together each weekend. Certainly we are invited to participate at Mass even
daily if our schedule permits. The Church refers to Mass as the “Eucharistic Celebration.” This “Celebration” always includes the
proclamation and explanation of the Word of God, thanksgiving to God for the gift of His Son Jesus, and the consecration of the
bread and wine into the Body and blood of Christ. Our full participation at Mass naturally includes our worthy reception of Holy
Communion.
Central to our understanding of Holy Eucharist is the truth of what we refer to as “transubstantiation.” As Catholics, we
believe that during the consecration the priest who stands “In persona Christi” brings about the change from bread and wine into the
Body and Blood of Christ. Jesus Christ becomes truly present---“Christ himself, living and glorious, is present in a true, real and
substantial manner: Body and Blood; soul and divinity.” (CCC: 1413). The faithful come forward to receive Holy Communion, and
the “Sacred Species” that has not been consumed is reserved in the Tabernacle. As Catholics, we understand that Jesus becomes
present during the consecration, and remains present under the form of bread and wine.
Unfortunately today there are many Catholics who really do not have an adequate understanding of “transubstantiation” or
the conversion of the bread and wine into the Body and Blood of Jesus during the consecration at Mass. The Catholic Church has
always consistently taught that through the power of the Holy Spirit, the priest, acting in the person of Jesus Christ, brings forth the
Body and Blood of Christ under the form of bread and wine. Jesus Christ is, therefore, truly present in Holy Communion. We then
refer to the “hosts” that are reserved in the Tabernacle as the “Real Presence,” that is the real presence of Jesus Christ who is with us
always!

Extraordinary Jubilee of Mercy
“Today the Church is celebrating one of the most important
feasts dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary: the Feast of her
Assumption. At the end of her earthly life, the Mother of
Christ was assumed body and soul to Heaven, that is to say,
into the glory of eternal life, in full communion with God.
Today’s page of the Gospel (Lk 1:39-56) presents to us Mary
who, just after conceiving Jesus through the work of the Holy
Spirit, goes to visit her elderly relative Elizabeth, who is also
miraculously expecting a child. In this meeting filled with the
Holy Spirit, Mary expresses her joy with the Canticle of the
Magnificat, because she has become fully aware of the
meaning of the great things that are being accomplished in
her life: through her, all that her people were expecting is
brought to fulfillment.
But the Gospel also shows us the truest cause of Mary’s
greatness and her blessedness: the cause is faith. Indeed,
Elizabeth greets her with these words: “blessed is she who
believed that there would be a fulfillment of what was spoken
to her from the Lord” (Lk 1:45). Faith is the heart of Mary’s
whole story: she is the believer, the great believer; she knows
— and she says so — that historically the violence of the
powerful, the pride of the rich, the arrogance of the proud are
burdensome. However, Mary believes and proclaims that God
does not leave his humble and poor children alone, but helps
them with mercy, with care, overthrowing the mighty from
their thrones, scattering the proud in the machinations of their
hearts. This is the faith of our Mother, this is the faith of
Mary!
The Canticle of Our Lady also enables us to grasp the full
meaning of Mary’s life: as the mercy of the Lord is the
driving force of history, then she could not “know the
corruption of the sepulchre, she who begot the Lord of
life” (cf. Preface). All this is not only about Mary. The “great
things” done in her by the Almighty touch us deeply, speak to
us of our journey in life, remind us of the destination that
awaits us: our Father’s house. Our life, seen in the light of
Mary assumed into Heaven, is not a meaningless wandering,
but is a pilgrimage which, while with all its uncertainty and
suffering, has a sure destination: our Father’s house, who
awaits us with love. It is beautiful to consider this: that we
have a Father who waits for us with love, and that our Mother
Mary is also up there and waiting for us with love.
Meanwhile, as life goes by, God makes shine “for his pilgrim
people on earth, a sign of comfort and sure hope” (cf. ibid.).
That sign has a face, that sign has a name: the luminous face
of the Mother of the Lord, the blessed name of Mary, full of
grace, for she believed in the word of the Lord: the great
believer! As members of the Church, we are destined to share
our Mother’s glory, because, thanks be to God, we too
believe in Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross and, through
Baptism, we were incorporated into that mystery of
salvation.”
May we use this Extraordinary Jubilee of Mercy to shape our
lives to be “Merciful like the Father.”
HOW DOES ONE BECOME A FULLY INIATED
MEMBER OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH?
The Church uses a pastoral process for initiating new
members into the church, forming them into Disciples of
Christ. The process, referred to as RCIA, is more than a
welcome; it is an invitation to undertake a spiritual journey
that is focused on Jesus Christ and His Kingdom of
salvation, love, justice and mercy. Jesus remind us that his
Kingdom is already in our midst, and as His disciples we
are asked to assist Him in bringing it to its fullness.

“Hoy la Iglesia celebra una de las fiestas más importantes dedicadas a la Santísima Virgen María: la fiesta de su Asunción. Al
final de su vida terrena, la Madre de Cristo subió en cuerpo y alma al Cielo, es decir, a la gloria de la vida eterna, en plena
comunión con Dios.
El Evangelio de hoy (Lc 1, 39-56) nos presenta a María, que, inmediatamente después de haber concebido a Jesús por obra del
Espíritu Santo, va a visitar a su anciana pariente Isabel, quien también milagrosamente espera un hijo. En este encuentro lleno del
Espíritu Santo, María expresa su alegría con el cántico del Magníficat, porque ha tomado plena conciencia del significado de las
grandes cosas que están sucediendo en su vida: a través de ella se llega al cumplimiento de toda la espera de su pueblo.
Pero el Evangelio nos muestra también cuál es el motivo más profundo de la grandeza de María y de su dicha: el motivo es la fe.
De hecho, Isabel la saluda con estas palabras: «Bienaventurada la que ha creído, porque lo que ha dicho el Señor se
cumplirá» (Lc 1, 45). La fe es el corazón de toda la historia de María; ella es la creyente, la gran creyente; ella sabe —y lo dice—
que en la historia pesa la violencia de los prepotentes, el orgullo de los ricos, la arrogancia de los soberbios. Aún así, María cree y
proclama que Dios no deja solos a sus hijos, humildes y pobres, sino que los socorre con misericordia, con atención, derribando a
los poderosos de sus tronos, dispersando a los orgullosos en las tramas de sus corazones. Esta es la fe de nuestra madre, esta es la
fe de María.
El cántico de la Virgen nos deja también intuir el sentido cumplido de la historia de María: si la misericordia del Señor es el
motor de la historia, entonces no podía «conocer la corrupción del sepulcro la mujer que, por obra del Espíritu, concibió en su
seno al autor de la vida, Jesucristo» (Prefacio). Todo esto no tiene que ver sólo con María. Las «cosas grandes» hechas en Ella
por el Todopoderoso nos tocan profundamente, nos hablan de nuestro viaje en la vida, nos recuerdan la meta que nos espera: la
casa del Padre. Nuestra vida, vista a la luz de María asunta al Cielo, no es un deambular sin sentido, sino una peregrinación que,
aun con todas sus incertidumbres y sufrimientos, tiene una meta segura: la casa de nuestro Padre, que nos espera con amor.
Mientras tanto, mientras transcurre la vida, Dios hace resplandecer «para su pueblo, todavía peregrino sobre la tierra, un signo de
consuelo y de segura esperanza» (ibid). Ese signo tiene un rostro, ese signo tiene un nombre: el rostro luminoso de la Madre del
Señor, el nombre bendito de María, la llena de gracia, bendita porque ella creyó en la palabra del Señor: ¡la gran creyente! Como
miembros de la Iglesia, estamos destinados a compartir la gloria de nuestra Madre, porque, gracias a Dios, también nosotros
creemos en el sacrificio de Cristo en la cruz y, mediante el Bautismo, somos introducidos en este misterio de salvación.”
Usemos este Jubileo de la Misericordia para ser “Misericordiosos como el Padre.”
