In rhetorical speech, which includes preaching and teaching, three elements are important: the mythos, or the message; the logos, or the words used; and the ethos, or the qualifications of the speaker. The message may be clear, the words may be elegant and persuasive, but if the speaker is not seen as someone who is qualified to speak on the subject, the speech will not be convincing. In today’s Gospel, the people are questioning Jesus’ credentials. “Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph?” (John 6:42). “He’s a local boy, where did he get this knowledge?” Jesus answers them with his teaching about God as true Father. If you know who your teacher is, you know what your message should be. Jesus’ important words about the Eucharist are grounded in his self̻knowledge as “the one who is from God” (John 6:46). Those who are from God know God and listen to the word of God. They will recognize Jesus as speaking, doing, and being that Word. The ethos of the hearer is on the line as well. ¿DE QUIÉN ERES HIJO, ENTONCES? En el discurso retórico, que incluye la predicación y la enseñanza, hay tres elementos importantes: el mythos, o el mensaje; el logos, o las palabras empleadas, y el ethos, o las habilidades del orador. El mensaje puede ser claro, las palabras pueden ser elegantes y persuasivas, pero si el orador no es visto como alguien calificado para hablar sobre el tema, el discurso no puede ser convincente. En el Evangelio de hoy, la gente pregunta las credenciales de Jesús. “¿No es este Jesús, el hijo de José?” “Es un muchacho de acá, ¿dónde adquirió este conocimiento?” Jesús les contesta con su enseñanza sobre Dios como el Padre verdadero. Si sabes quién es tu maestro, sabes cuál debería ser tu mensaje. Las palabras importantes de Jesús sobre la Eucaristía están basadas en el conocimiento de sí mismo como “el que es de Dios”. Los que son de Dios conocen a Dios y escuchan la palabra de Dios. Reconocen a Jesús al hablar, hacer y ser esa Palabra. El ethos del oyente también está en juego. TAUGHT BY GOD The people who know God as “Father,” that is, intimately and in deep and loving relationship, will recognize Jesus as the One who reveals God to us, even if the message is challenging. For any speech to be understood and accepted, there has to be an audience, and that audience has to hear, understand, and be able to accept what is being said. Jesus makes the point that if we know God, as he does, we will see and understand that, just as God fed the people in the desert, God feeds us and sustains us with the Bread of Life, the Eucharist, which is Christ the Lord. He is not only the speaker, but the word and the message as well. This Bread is the gift of a loving and faithful God who gave us life and sustains it. ENSEÑADO POR DIOS La gente que conoce a Dios como el “Padre”, esto es, íntimamente y en una profunda y amorosa relación, reconocerá a Jesús como el que nos revela a Dios, aun si el mensaje es desafiante. Para que cualquier discurso sea entendido y aceptado, debe haber una audiencia, y esa audiencia tiene que oír, entender y estar dispuesta a aceptar lo que se le dice. Jesús señala que si conocemos a Dios, como Él lo conoce, veremos y entenderemos que, así como Dios alimentó a la gente en el desierto, Dios nos alimenta y nos sustenta con el Pan de Vida, la Eucaristía, que es Cristo el Señor. No es solamente el orador, sino también la palabra y el mensaje. El Pan es el regalo de un Dios amoroso y fiel que nos da vida y nos sustenta.

Treasures From Our Tradition The roots of this week’s feast of the Assumption can be traced back at least to the fifth century, when it is noted in the Armenian lectionary. Celebrated in Jerusalem, the feast in honor of the Theotokos, the Mother of God, became the principal feast of Mary throughout the Christian world. The place of celebration was at the tomb of Mary in Gethsemane and was therefore known as the “Dormition of Mary.” In some cultures this feast is celebrated today with a resting statue of Mary, much like a wake service of modern times. The liturgy of this feast provides images of “the place of your rest” in Psalm 132, and reverence for the Ark of the Covenant that held the signs of the Promise. Like that Ark, Mary is for us the ark of the Savior, the one who bore the Son of God. When the doctrine of the Assumption was defined in 1950 the Gospel reading for the feast was changed to include the verses of Mary’s song, the Magnificat. The scripture readings for both the vigil Mass and the Mass of the day speak to us of life after death as well as the path to be followed in order to reach it. The key to this promised immortality is found as we take to heart the words of the vigil’s Gospel, “Blessed are those who hear the word of God and observe it.” —James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co. Nineteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time I am the living bread that came down from heaven; whoever eats this bread will live forever. — John 6:51 Page 4 Novena del Divino Niño Jesus El Grupo Devocional del Divino Niño Jesus tendra una Novena la cual empezara el sabado, 25 de agosto al domingo, 2 de septiembre a las 7:00 pm.

Se celebra en Jerusalén, la fiesta en honor de la Virgen, la Madre de Dios, se convirtió en la principal fiesta de María en todo el mundo cristiano. El lugar de celebración fue en la tumba de María en Getsemaní y por lo tanto, era conocido como la "Dormición de María." En algunas culturas, esta fiesta se celebra hoy con una estatua de descanso de María, al igual que un servicio de despertador de los tiempos modernos. La liturgia de esta fiesta ofrece imágenes de "el lugar de su descanso" en el Salmo 132, y la reverencia por el Arca de la Alianza que contenía los signos de la promesa. Al igual que el Arca, María es para nosotros el arca del Salvador, el que dio a luz al Hijo de Dios. Cuando la doctrina de la Asunción se definió en 1950 la lectura del Evangelio de la fiesta fue cambiado para incluir los versos de la canción de María, el Magnificat. Las lecturas bíblicas de la Misa de la vigilia y la misa del día nos hablan de la vida después de la muerte, así como el camino a seguir a fin de llegar a él. La clave de esta inmortalidad prometida se encuentra como nos tomamos en serio las palabras del Evangelio de la vigilia, el "Bienaventurados los que oyen la palabra de Dios y la guardan".

SUNDAY, AUGUST 12, 2012 NINETEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME Patience first In the spring many people were troubled by the Vatican’s announcement of an investigation of an organization of U.S. Catholic sisters. They wrote and spoke out in support of the sisters, sometimes in bitter and angry words. Such feelings are understandable, but quieter voices—often those of the sisters themselves—urged patience and mutual respect while differences are discussed. Saint Paul may have had our uncivil times in mind when he insisted we remove “all bitterness, fury, anger, shouting, and reviling.” His antidote: Be imitators of God by your care for one other even in disagreement. Simplistic? Perhaps, but in Paul’s First Letter to the Corinthians he defines love first not as kindness but patience. TODAY’S READINGS: 1 Kings 19:4-8; Ephesians 4:30-5:2; John 6:41-51 “Be kind to one another, compassionate, forgiving one another as God has forgiven you in Christ.” MONDAY, AUGUST 13 To see Thee more clearly Need a fresh perspective on celestial goings-on? Read the mystical scroll of the Book of Ezekiel. A Jewish priest of the sixth-century B.C. in Babylonian exile, Ezekiel had served at the grand Temple in Jerusalem before its destruction by Babylon’s armies. Mourning the loss of home, Ezekiel asked along with his generation: Where is God in these awful times? The answer he got was beyond his wildest dreams and supplies us with one of the most vividly imaginative texts in the Bible. In dark circumstances, pray for the grace to see God’s glory manifest. TODAY’S READINGS: Ezekiel 1:2-5, 24-28c; Matthew 17:22-27 (413) “Such was the vision of the likeness of the glory of the Lord.” TUESDAY, AUGUST 14 FEAST OF MAXIMILIAN MARY KOLBE, PRIEST, MARTYR Nights of destiny It may seem that our lives are defined by our best or worst hour. Yet character is actually honed one decision at a time, and we’re always free to choose a new direction. At an early age the Franciscan priest Maximilian Kolbe had a vision of martyrdom and embraced it. Forty years later he would have to choose it more concretely, offering his life in exchange for another prisoner in the Auschwitz death camp. On this day Muslims commemorate another “Night of Destiny,” when Mohammed received his revelation, by praying as a community for mercy, forgiveness, and salvation. Today, pray for the gifts you need to fulfill your destiny. TODAY’S READINGS: Ezekiel 2:8-3:4; Matthew 18:1-5, 10, 12-14 (414) “I opened my mouth, and [the Lord God] gave me the scroll to eat.” WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 15 SOLEMNITY OF THE ASSUMPTION OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY Blessed among women When we think of Mary, we see a real representative of a woman of faith. God chose Mary to be the mother of the Savior and to convey the news sent the Archangel Gabriel, who recognized her as “favored one,” and in the Assumption she returned to God. Mary shows us by example and prayer how to grow in God’s grace, be receptive to God’s will, convert our lives through sacrifice, and seek everlasting union in the heavenly kingdom. TODAY’S READINGS: Day: Revelation 11:19a; 12:1-6a, 10ab; 1 Corin- thians 15:20-27; Luke 1:39-56 (622) “My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord; my spirit rejoices in God my Savior.” THURSDAY, AUGUST 16 FEAST OF STEPHEN OF HUNGARY What do you see from the other side? Saint Stephen (967?-1038) is recognized as the founder of the kingdom of Hungary. His many achievements included expanding Hungarian control over the region, bringing Christianity to the Hungarian people (known as the Magyars), organizing the country into dioceses, and establishing the collection of tithes to support churches, pastors, and the poor. One could argue, however, that Stephen’s greatest “accomplishment” was disguising himself as a peasant to learn firsthand the needs of the poor and marginalized. To see the world from another’s perspective opens the door to compassion, forgiveness, and love of enemies—all of which you are called to do. It may not be possible literally to walk in another’s shoes as Stephen did, but what might you do today to see the world from someone else’s perspective? TODAY’S READINGS: Ezekiel 12:1-12; Matthew 18:21-19:1 (416) “They have eyes to see but do not see, and ears to hear but do not hear.” FRIDAY, AUGUST 17 Traveling mercies If you have flown recently you probably have a gripe or two to add to the large pile of complaints of missing luggage, brusque employees, and long lines. But put it all in perspective: On this day in 1807 people were celebrating the first ever commercial steamboat service, which carried passengers 150 miles—in 32 hours! Step back even further, when the first Christian disciples trekked for days, weeks, and months to bring the Good News to lands unknown. While we’d all appreciate a little less time in line and a little more leg room, make sure you’re attentive to opportunities to be kind, generous, and gentle with your fellow passengers along the way. As the poet John Milton put it, “They also serve who only stand and wait.” TODAY’S READINGS: Ezekiel 16:1-15, 60, 63 or 16:59-63; Matthew 19:3 -12 (417) “I will remember the covenant I made with you.” SATURDAY, AUGUST 18 FEAST OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY A woman for all seasons The BVM can be your BFF for your whole life! As a Best Friend Forever, Mary supports and inspires you at important times in your life. In your youth she is the young woman whom God asked to do something probably far beyond what she imagined; her “yes” echoes in your ears when people trust you with responsibilities you aren’t even sure you can handle. In your school years Mary is in the classroom with you; her ability to deal with stressful situations helps you continue on when life gets tough. In adulthood Mary reminds you that compassion is a form of strength and that patience can lead to happiness. What does Mary mean to you today? TODAY’S READINGS: Ezekiel 18:1-10, 13b, 30-32; Matthew 19:13-15 (418) “Let the children come to me, and do not prevent them; for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.” ©2012 by TrueQuest Communications, L.L.C.
