PASTOR'S NOTES
The Year of Faith
We continue with the Holy Father’s reflection on the Year of Faith.
-Fr. Efrain
It is no accident that Blessed John Paul II wanted the
Catechism of the Catholic Church - a secure norm for
teaching the faith and a reliable source for a renewed
catechesis - to be patterned after the Creed. It was a
matter of confirming and protecting the central core
of the truths of the faith, while putting it into language more intelligible for men of our own times, for
us. It is the Church’s duty to transmit the faith and to
communicate the Gospel, so that Christian truths
may shed light on new cultural transformations, and
so that Christians may be able to make a defense for
the hope that is in them (cf. 1 Peter 3:14).
Today we live in a society that has changed profoundly, even compared with the recent past, and
that is in constant motion. The process of secularization and a widespread nihilistic mentality, according
to which everything is relative, have had a profound
impact on the general mindset. Thus, life is often
lived lightly without clear ideals and solid hopes, and
within fluid and passing family and social ties. Above
all, the new generations are not being formed to seek
the truth and the profound meaning of life that goes
beyond all that is passing. Nor are they being formed
to have stable affections and attachments, and to
trust. On the contrary, relativism leads to having no
firm foundation. Suspicion and inconstancy cause
ruptures in human relationships, while life is lived in
experiments that do not last, without assuming responsibility. If individualism and relativism seem to
dominate the minds of many of our contemporaries,
it cannot be said that believers remain totally immune to these dangers by which we are confronted in
handing on the faith. The survey promoted on all the
continents for the celebration of the Synod of Bishops
on the New Evangelization, highlighted some of these
dangers: a faith lived in a passive or private manner,
failure to educate in the faith, the fracture between
life and faith.
Today, Christians often do not even know the core of
their own Catholic faith, the Creed. This can leave
the door open to certain syncretism and religious
relativism that lacks clarity about the truths we must
believe and about Christianity’s unique power to
save. Today we are not so far away from the risk of
building a “do-it-yourself” religion. We must instead
return to God, to the God of Jesus Christ. We must
rediscover the message of the Gospel and make it
enter more deeply into our consciences and into our
daily lives.
In the catecheses for the Year of Faith, I would like to
offer help for the journey, for taking up and exploring
the central truths of the faith about God, about man,
about the Church, about the whole social and cosmic
reality, by meditating and reflecting on the statements of the Creed. And I would like for it to become
clear that the content or truths of faith (fides quae –
“faith which”) are directly connected to our lives, that
they require a conversion of our lives, that they give
birth to a new way of believing in God (fides qua –
“faith by which”). Knowing God, meeting him, exploring the features of His Face, brings our lives into
play, for He enters into the deep dynamics of being
human.
May the journey we will make this year cause us all
to grow in faith and love for Christ, so that we may
learn to live, in our choices and daily actions, the
good and beautiful life of the Gospel. Thank you .

STEWARDSHIP THOUGHTS
Thirty-Second Sunday in Ordinary Time
Today’s First Reading and Gospel passages are linked by two widows’ extraordinary examples of sacrifice. The Old Testament
prophet Elijah asks a poor widow to prepare him food out of her
meager supplies of flour and oil in the midst of a drought. She
does and, because of her generosity, the Lord blesses her and her
son abundantly. In St. Mark’s Gospel, Jesus observes the poor
widow who gave all she had to the temple treasury. Jesus proclaims to His disciples that her contribution is significant because
she gave from her need, not her surplus wealth as others did. We
learn in the Letter to the Hebrews another form of sacrifice:
Christ’s sacrifice of Himself as our High Priest. These are all profound examples of sacrificial giving — giving of time, talent, and
treasure — that we, as Christian stewards, should strive to imitate
in serving our parish communion, discerning our life’s vocation,
and giving back to God through our parish offertory,
the Catholic Services Appeal, and other worthy causes.
NĂM ĐỨC TIN: Gợi Ý 11 bước giúp gia tăng lòng tin - An Nhiên
1. Dành thời gian thật chất lượng cho Lời Chúa (x. Rm 10,17). Đọc, lắng
nghe, học thuộc và suy ngẫm. “Như trẻ sơ sinh, anh em hãy khao khát sữa
tinh tuyền là Lời Chúa, nhờ đó, anh em lớn lên để hưởng ơn cứu độ” (2 Pr
2,2).
2. Đọc những bài viết về sự can thiệp thiêng liêng. Những bài viết về lời
cầu nguyện được đáp trả, cả trong Kinh Thánh và trong thời nay, chứng
thực những lời Chúa hứa rất có ích. Những gì Chúa đã làm cho người khác,
Ngài có thể làm cho bạn.
3. Hãy thử nghiệm những lời hứa của Chúa. Khi bạn học hỏi Lời Chúa, hãy
liệt kê những câu Kinh Thánh chứa đựng những lời hứa của Chúa có liên
quan đến những hoàn cảnh nào đó; tin rằng Chúa sẽ giữ lời hứa khi bạn cầu
nguyện.
4. Hãy tích cực. Hãy xem những khó khăn, những trở ngại, và những thách
thức như là những cơ hội kéo giãn lòng tin của bạn.
5. Hãy dâng những khó khăn và những câu hỏi của bạn lên cho Chúa qua
lời cầu nguyện. Chúa nói: “Hãy kêu cầu Ta, Ta sẽ trả lời ngươi và sẽ tỏ cho
người biết những điều lớn lao và bí ẩn mà ngươi không biết” (Gr 33,3). Khi
bạn biết cách đến gần bên Chúa hơn để tìm những giải pháp và câu trả lời,
bạn sẽ biết nhiều hơn về sự giúp đỡ và tình yêu luôn hiện hữu của Ngài.
6. Nắm bắt sự thay đổi. Những trường hợp thay đổi lớn thường không dễ
chịu và đáng lo ngại, nhưng chúng cũng tạo ra một môi trường tuyệt vời để
lòng tin đơm hoa, bởi vì nó buộc phải quyết định: Bạn sẽ tin tưởng Chúa về
kết quả sẽ đến chứ? Mỗi khi bạn quyết định tin tưởng Chúa, Ngài sẽ giúp
bạn vượt qua, và sẽ dễ dàng hơn trong việc tin tưởng Ngài sẽ giúp bạn vượt
qua khó khăn kế tiếp.
7. Cầu nguyện như thể bạn trông đợi sự tốt nhất, không phải chỉ đơn thuần
hy vọng. Khi bạn tạ ơn Chúa đáp trả những lời cầu nguyện của bạn ngay cả
trước khi bạn nhìn thấy câu trả lời, nó giúp hướng sự tập trung ra khỏi nhu
cầu, và tin tưởng vào khả năng Chúa sẽ đáp ứng nhu cầu ấy.
8. Giữ một quyển nhật ký cầu nguyện, ghi lại chi tiết những gì bạn cầu
nguyện, vào khi nào, và rồi đánh dấu bỏ qua những mục được đáp trả.
Thỉnh thoảng, mở ra và đọc lại những kết quả.
9. Giữ một quyển sổ ghi lại những lời hứa đã dùng và được thoả nguyện.
Ghi lại những lời hứa của Chúa mà bạn đã dùng trong mỗi trường hợp cụ
thể, và xem lại bảng liệt kê khi bạn cần một sự nâng đỡ nơi lòng tin để bạn
vượt qua được mức sào kế tiếp.
10. Đưa ra những quyết định dựa trên Lời Chúa. Bạn càng học biết hành
động dựa theo những nguyên tắc và những lời hứa trong Lời Chúa, bạn sẽ
càng cảm nghiệm được nhiều hơn quyền năng của Chúa, và đến lượt điều
này sẽ làm gia tăng lòng tin của bạn khi bạn dâng những nhu cầu khác lên
Chúa trong lời cầu nguyện.
11. Minh chứng quyền năng của Chúa với mọi người. Việc nói với người
khác về việc Chúa đã giúp đỡ bạn thế nào sẽ làm gia tăng lòng tin của bạn
và của họ.

Mensaje del Párroco
AÑO DE LA FE
Esta semana continuamos con las reflexiones
del Santo Padre sobre el año de la Fé.
-P. Efrain
No es casualidad que el beato Juan Pablo II quisiera
que el Catecismo de la Iglesia católica, norma segura para la enseñanza de la fe y fuente cierta para
una catequesis renovada, se asentara sobre el Credo. Se trató de confirmar y custodiar este núcleo
central de las verdades de la fe, expresándolo en un
lenguaje más inteligible a los hombres de nuestro
tiempo, a nosotros. Es un deber de la Iglesia transmitir la fe, comunicar el Evangelio, para que las verdades cristianas sean luz en las nuevas transformaciones culturales, y los cristianos sean capaces de
dar razón de la esperanza que tienen (cf. 1 P 3, 15).
Vivimos hoy en una sociedad profundamente cambiada, también respecto a un pasado reciente, y en
continuo movimiento. Los procesos de la secularización y de una difundida mentalidad nihilista, en la
que todo es relativo, han marcado fuertemente la
mentalidad común. Así, a menudo la vida se vive
con ligereza, sin ideales claros y esperanzas sólidas,
dentro de vínculos sociales y familiares líquidos,
provisionales. Sobre todo no se educa a las nuevas
generaciones en la búsqueda de la verdad y del sentido profundo de la existencia que supere lo contingente, en la estabilidad de los afectos, en la confianza. Al contrario: el relativismo lleva a no tener puntos firmes; sospecha y volubilidad provocan rupturas en las relaciones humanas, mientras que la vida
se vive en el marco de experimentos que duran poco, sin asunción de responsabilidades. Así como el
individualismo y el relativismo parecen dominar el
ánimo de muchos contemporáneos, no se puede
decir que los creyentes permanezcan del todo inmunes a estos peligros que afrontamos en la transmisión de la fe. Algunos de estos ha evidenciado la
indagación promovida en todos los continentes para
la celebración del Sínodo de los obispos sobre la
nueva evangelización: una fe vivida de modo pasivo
y privado, el rechazo de la educación en la fe, la
fractura entre vida y fe.
Frecuentemente el cristiano ni siquiera conoce el
núcleo central de la propia fe católica, del Credo, de
forma que deja espacio a un cierto sincretismo y
relativismo religioso, sin claridad sobre las verdades
que creer y sobre la singularidad salvífica del cristianismo. Actualmente no es tan remoto el peligro de
construirse, por así decirlo, una religión autofabricada. En cambio debemos volver a Dios, al Dios
de Jesucristo; debemos redescubrir el mensaje del
Evangelio, hacerlo entrar de forma más profunda en
nuestras conciencias y en la vida cotidiana. En las
catequesis de este Año de la fe desearía ofrecer una
ayuda para realizar este camino, para retomar y
profundizar en las verdades centrales de la fe acerca
de Dios, del hombre, de la Iglesia, de toda la realidad social y cósmica, meditando y reflexionando en
las afirmaciones del Credo. Y desearía que quedara
claro que estos contenidos o verdades de la fe (fides
quae) se vinculan directamente a nuestra cotidianeidad; piden una conversión de la existencia, que
da vida a un nuevo modo de creer en Dios (fides
qua). Conocer a Dios, encontrarle, profundizar en
los rasgos de su rostro, pone en juego nuestra vida
porque Él entra en los dinamismos profundos del
ser humano. Que el camino que realizaremos este
año pueda hacernos crecer a todos en la fe y en el
amor a Cristo a fin de que aprendamos a vivir, en las
elecciones y en las acciones cotidianas, la vida buena y bella del Evangelio. Gracias.

AÑO DE LA FE: NOVIEMBRE DE 2012
Recursos indispensables para el Año de la Fe
El Catecismo de la Iglesia católica es un subsidio precioso e indispensable para proveer a todos un conocimiento sistemático
del contenido de la fe. Es uno de los frutos más importantes del
Concilio Vaticano II (ver Benedicto XVI, La puerta de la fe, 11).
Este Año de la Fe, como el Papa lo prevé, es primero una invitación a renovar el entusiasmo gozoso de nuestro encuentro personal con Cristo. Este encuentro personal debe inspirarnos a
renovar nuestro compromiso de un amor altruista a nuestro
prójimo. En este “camino que dura toda la vida”, como el Papa
lo describe, la Iglesia provee “compañeros de viaje”, recursos
prácticos que nos inspiran y nos informan. Pues el “corazón” de
la fe, nuestra relación personal con Cristo, también necesita
una “mente” bien formada en la verdad que Jesús, el amigo de
nuestras almas y el Señor de la Iglesia, nos ha revelado. Por
eso, para el comienzo de este Año de la Fe, todo católico—
individualmente o como familia—debe adquirir los recursos
oficiales de la Iglesia, fácilmente disponibles en librerías o en
Internet. Si todo el Catecismo parece demasiado desafiante,
considera el Compendio del Catecismo, abreviado y con referencias al Catecismo completo, presentando obras de arte seleccionadas por el papa Benedicto y acompañadas de sus comentarios, con un apéndice de oraciones básicas. El libro YouCat: Catecismo para jóvenes, escrito y diseñado específicamente para jóvenes, ofrece un formato con gráficos y un estilo de
escritura contemporáneos, y también una colección de citas de
fuentes antiguas y modernas, haciéndolo popular entre los que
no son tan jóvenes.
FIESTA DE LA VIRGEN DE GUADALUPE
Es el tiempo de ORGANIZAR la Fiesta Parroquial de la Virgen de Guadalupe. TODOS los
Líderes de los Ministerios Parroquiales están
invitados a una REUNION este martes 13 de
noviembre en el Salón # 8 a las 7pm. ¡Ven a
poner tu esfuerzo para dar culto a nuestra Madre Santísima de Guadalupe!

Domingo Trigésimo Segundo del Tiempo Ordinario
Jesús menciona a sus discípulos a la pobre viuda que deposita solamente
dos monedas de cobre en el templo. Él ofrece entonces una enseñanza
sobre la Administración de los bienes. A pesar de su pobreza, la viuda no
niega a Dios su generosidad. Sale de su desesperada vida de pobreza y
ayuda al Templo para dar gloria y alabanza a Dios. No es el valor monetario lo que fue importante, sino el amor, la confianza y la gratitud expresada a través de su ofrenda. El Evangelio nos cuestiona como Fieles
Administradores:¿qué valoramos nosotros? ¿En qué o en quién ponemos
nuestra confianza? ¿Cómo nuestra generosidad hacia Dios fortalece a
nuestra comunidad de fe?

MARTIR DEL SEÑOR
El Papa nos ha invitado a crecer en nuestra Fe
mediante el conocimiento de la vida de los santos. El viernes 23 de noviembre tendremos la
oportunidad de ver la película del Mártir del Señor: Beato P. Miguel Agustín Pro, S.J. en los Salones Parroquiales a partir de las 6:30 de la tarde (subtítulos en
inglés). El Beato P. Pro se dedicó incansablemente, a pesar de
su mala salud, a fundar organizaciones para ayudar a los desamparados en medio de las persecución religiosa. Murió
mártir de la Fe fusilado por el gobierno mexicano.
¡LLEGARON LOS LIBROS!
Los libros para los Ministros de la Palabra ya han llegado… si usted pagó para obtenerlos, pase a la oficina
