Gospel Reading: John 10: 27-30
Jesus said: “My sheep hear my voice; I know them, and they follow me. I give them
eternal life, and they shall never perish. No one can take them out of my hand. My
Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one can take them out
of the Father’s hand. The Father and I are one.”

From the Pastor • Del Pastor
Dear Friends of St. Louise,
Queridos Amigos de Santa Luisa:
As most of you know, the Sacrament of the
Sick went through a renewal with Vatican II.
For several centuries this sacrament had
been called “extreme unction” (meaning, final
anointing) and reserved for the last moments
of life. The Second Vatican Council reexamined the sacrament in light of Scripture
and the Church’s early practice, concluding
that “‘extreme unction,’ which may also
and more properly be called ‘anointing of the sick,’ is not a
sacrament for those only who are at the point of death. Hence,
as soon as any one of the faithful begins to be in danger of
death from sickness or old age, the fitting time for [that
person] to receive this sacrament has certainly already
arrived.” (Second Vatican Council, Const. Sacrosanctum
concilium, 73)
Como casi todos ustedes saben, el Sacramento de la Unión de los
Enfermos pasó por una renovación con el Vaticano II. Por varios
siglos este sacramento había sido llamado “extrema unción” (es
decir, unción final) y estaba reservado para los últimos momentos
de la vida. El Concilio Vaticano II reexaminó el sacramento a la luz
de la Escritura y la antigua práctica de la Iglesia, concluyendo que
“‘Extrema unción,’ que también puede llamarse con mayor
propiedad ‘unción de los enfermos,’ no es un sacramento solo
para aquellos que están a punto de morir. Por lo tanto, tan
pronto como uno de los fieles comienza a estar en peligro de
muerte por enfermedad o edad avanzada, el momento
oportuno para que [esa persona] reciba este sacramento,
ciertamente ha llegado.” (Concilio Vaticano Segundo, Const.
Sacrosanctum concilium, 73)
I bring up this topic because in the last few months numerous
people, and in some cases even active parishioners, have
waited until the very last moment to ask for their loved ones to
be anointed. Many have even made comments like, “I didn’t call
earlier because I didn’t want to scare Mom [or Dad].” The other
week I told a man that I had come to anoint him and he looked at
me with horror, as if I was giving him a death wish! Once I assured
him that the sacrament is meant to give him the strength of Jesus
in his illness, he seemed to calm down.
The norms of the Church provide more detailed guidance about
receiving this beautiful sacrament, including:

The sacrament may be repeated if the sick person recovers
after being anointed and then again falls ill or if, during the
same illness, the person’s condition becomes more serious.

A sick person may be anointed before surgery whenever a
serious illness is the reason for the surgery.

Elderly people may be anointed if they have become notably
weakened even though no serious illness is present.

Sick children are to be anointed if they have sufficient use of
reason to be strengthened by this sacrament. In a case of
doubt whether a child has sufficient use of reason, the
sacrament is to be conferred.
We need to avoid two extremes in connection with this sacrament.
First, we should avoid waiting till the last moment to ask for and
receive the sacrament – instead, receive it and the strength of
Jesus it confers during a difficult illness. Second, we should avoid
approaching the sacrament for an illness or condition that is not
serious. As the General Introduction to Pastoral Care of the Sick
states, “Those who are seriously ill need the special help of
God's grace in this time of anxiety, lest they be broken in spirit
and, under the pressure of temptation, perhaps weakened in
their faith.”
Yours in Christ,
Fr. Gary Zender
Next week: The Pope’s new letter on the family.

Menciono este tópico porque en los últimos meses
numerosas personas, y en algunos casos incluso
parroquianos activos, han esperado hasta el último momento
para pedir la unción para sus seres queridos. Muchos incluso han
hecho comentarios como: “No llamé antes porque no quería
asustar a mi Mamá [o Papá].” La otra semana le dije a un señor
que yo había ido para darle la unción y me miró con horror, como
si le estuviera deseando la muerte! Una vez que le aseguré que el
sacramento está hecho para darle la fuerza de Jesús en su
enfermedad, pareció tranquilizarse.
Las normas de la Iglesia proporcionan una guía más detallada
acerca de recibir este bello sacramento, incluyendo:

El sacramento puede repetirse si la persona enferma se
recupera después de ser ungida y cae enferma otra vez, o si,
durante la misma enfermedad, la condición de la persona se
vuelve más seria.

Una persona enferma puede ser ungida antes de una cirugía,
siempre que la razón de la cirugía sea una enfermedad grave.

Las personas de edad avanzada pueden ser ungidas si se
han vuelto notoriamente débiles, aun cuando no esté presente
una enfermedad grave.

Los niños enfermos pueden ser ungidos si tienen suficiente
uso de razón para ser fortalecidos por este sacramento. En
caso de duda, se debe otorgar el sacramento.
Necesitamos evitar los dos extremos que existen en conexión con
este sacramento. Primero, debemos evitar esperar hasta el último
momento para pedir el sacramento y recibirlo –en vez de eso,
recibirlo y con ello la fuerza de Jesús que éste confiere, durante
una enfermedad difícil. Segundo, debemos evitar acercarnos al
sacramento para una enfermedad o condición que no sea seria.
Como señala la Introducción General para el Cuidado Pastoral de
los Enfermos: “Aquellos que están seriamente enfermos
necesitan la ayuda especial de la gracia de Dios en este
tiempo de ansiedad, no sea que su espíritu se quebrante y,
bajo la presión de la tentación, quizás flaqueen en su fe.”
Suyo en Cristo,
Padre Gary Zender

Our 6th grade classrooms devote their year to Hopelink’s

The 7th grade service project occurs during Lent and is
intricately woven into the Lenten message of almsgiving.
Starting with pre-preparation all-school activities prior to Ash
Wednesday, students assisted in providing the school soup
lunch. In addition, the 7th grade coordinated "Operation Rice
Bowl" and participated in a Hunger Banquet during Holy Week.
The 8th graders’ class service theme is based on the corporal
work of mercy “Feed the Hungry.” Our 8th graders assist with
the local community meal program at Salvation Army each year.

Holy doors are traditionally found in the four papal major basilicas in Vatican City and
Rome, and Pope Francis has encouraged each diocese throughout the world to open a
Holy Door at its cathedral, to which pilgrims can journey during the Jubilee Year. In Seattle, St. James Cathedral has designated its bronze doors, covered in depictions of stories
of God’s mercy, as the church’s Holy Doors.
