As tax-gatherer at Capharnaum, he collected custom duties for Herod Antipas, and, although a Jew, was despised by the Pharisees, who hated all publicans. When summoned by Jesus, Matthew arose and followed Him and tendered Him a feast in his house, where tax-gatherers and sinners sat at table with Christ and His disciples. This drew forth a protest from the Pharisees whom Jesus rebuked in these consoling words: "I came not to call the just, but sinners". The Gospel tells us “The person who is trustworthy in very small matters is also trustworthy in great ones”. God has entrusted your spouse to your care – are you trustworthy in that care? The last Worldwide Marriage Encounter Weekend® of 2016 will be presented at St. Francis Retreat Center, San Juan Bautista, CA on October 21-23, 2016.

OUR RESPONSIBILITY FOR OTHERS The Second Vatican Council has called us to envision the Church as the people of God. As a community of believers we are responsible for our brothers and sisters, their salvation, their journey of faith, their physical well-being. Many of the documents of Vatican II and volumes of work since the mid-1960s give us advice, guidelines, and encouragement to take care of one another: the poor, the elderly, the unborn, the broken, the infirm. Because Vatican II is part of our recent history—indeed many of us were already born—this may strike us as a new and revolutionary idea. But today’s readings show us the agelessness of the issue of social justice. Eight hundred years before Christ was born, Amos warned the wealthy not to cheat the poor. In Paul’s first letter to Timothy, he encourages all prayers to be for all people; and finally, the Gospel urges the wise use of money. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

Jubilee Year of Mercy September 18, 2016 Twenty-fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time Mercy is one thing, malpractice quite another. Why, then, does the defrauded master in Jesus’ parable praise the devious steward? Jesus shows by example how to sanctify material goods: by placing all our resources, indeed our very selves, at the service of others. No matter how costly such service, or how minimal the return, such charity is the wisest investment, yielding a reward that is literally out of this world. For Amos and Jesus, authentic worship of God demands practical charity toward our neighbor. Paul, too, declares that the only worship acceptable to God is offered by a community rich in charity. Liturgy must be matched to life, “lifting up holy hands, without anger or argument” (1 Timothy 2:8). This Jubilee Year of Mercy challenges us to live as “children of light,” as devoted to self-sacrificing service as “the children of this world” (Luke 16:8) are to serving themselves, as enthusiastic for God’s kingdom of justice as we are about less-enduring treasures. —Peter Scagnelli, Copyright © J.

Como una comunidad de creyentes somos responsables por nuestros hermanos, por su salvación, su peregrinar en la fe, su bienestar físico. Muchos de los documentos del Concilio y volúmenes de trabajos desde mediados de la década del 60 nos dan consejos, guías y ánimo para ayudarnos unos a otros: a los pobres, a los ancianos, a los no nacidos, a los quebrantados, a los enfermos. Porque el Concilio Vaticano II es parte de nuestra reciente historia –sin duda muchos de nosotros ya habíamos nacido– esto nos puede parecer una idea nueva y revolucionaria. Pero las lecturas de hoy nos muestran que las enseñanzas sobre justicia social han existido siempre. Ochocientos años antes de nacer Cristo, Amós advirtió a los ricos que no engañaran a los pobres. En la primera carta de Pablo a Timoteo, él insiste en que todas las oraciones sean por todos; y finalmente, el Evangelio enfatiza la importancia de usar sabiamente el dinero. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co. 40 DÍAS POR LA VIDA es una campaña anual pro-vida que ha movilizado a más de 700,000 personas en todo el mundo, ha salvado la vida de más de 11,796 bebés en el vientre, dio lugar a la conversión de 133 trabajadores de las clínicas de aborto, y ha visto 73 centros de aborto cerrar sus puertas. Por favor, únase a nosotros para una hora en oración y ayuno en una vigilia de oración pacífica en frente de la clínica de aborto Planned Parenthood (650 N. Fulton St. en Fresno) Del 28 de Septiembre al 6 de Noviembre El Valle Central se unirá a cientos de otras ciudades de todo el mundo en esta vigilia; representando una de las movilizaciones coordinadas pro-vida más grandes y más largas de la historia.

Jesús muestra con un ejemplo cómo santificar los bienes materiales: poniendo todos nuestros recursos, aún nosotros mismos, al servicio de nuestros prójimos. No importa que tan costoso ese servicio, o lo poco que podamos recibir a cambio, esa obra de caridad es la inversión más inteligente, que ofrece una recompensa que literalmente está más allá de este mundo. Para Amos y Jesús, la verdadera adoración a Dios exige obras de caridad útiles hacia nuestro prójimo. Pablo también expresa que la única adoración aceptable a Dios es la que se ofrece por una comunidad rica en caridad. La liturgia debe relacionarse con la vida “levantando al cielo sus manos puras, libre de odios y divisiones” (1 Timoteo 2:8). Este Año Jubilar de la Misericordia nos desafía a vivir como “hijos de la luz” — con dedicado servicio abnegado— tan entusiasmados por el Reino de Dios de justicia pero menos por los tesoros pasajeros; así como los “hijos de este mundo” se sirven a ellos mismos (Lucas 16:8). —Peter Scagnelli, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc. LECTURAS DE HOY Primera lectura — El Señor nunca se olvida del pecado de los que hacen trampa a los pobres y abusan de ellos (Amós 8:4-7). Salmo — Que alaben al Señor todos sus siervos (Salmo 113 [112]). Segunda lectura — Reza al Señor, que quiere que todos se salven (1 Timoteo 2:1-8). Evangelio — Sé responsable en todo. No pueden ustedes servir a Dios y al dinero (Lucas 16:1-13).
