SANTA CLARA CHURCH & CHAPEL
SHARE THE BURDEN
“C ome to me, all you who labor and are burdened, and I will give you rest” (Matthew 11:28). These words of our Savior seem to be in stark contrast to the
previous chapter from the same Gospel, when we were told that if we do not take up our crosses, we are not worthy of Christ. Connect-ing these two messages might help us on our faith journeys. Being a follower of Christ sure-ly means that we must embrace the cross, in its mystery of both suffering and triumph. This is something that we need not do alone, for the burden is often too heavy for us to carry by ourselves. Who, then, do we turn to? We can turn to the Body of Christ—the community of disciples gathered for worship. When we find the burden too heavy, let us remember that we can share that burden with our Christian sisters and brothers, who can help bring us rest. -Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
OUR COMPLICATED LIVES
W e live in an age and a society that has never been more educated or had a higher standard of living, yet never have we carried as much debt.
Many are living beyond their means. We have so many resources and time-saving devices at our hands, yet our lives are more complex than ever. While many people may not en-gage in extreme manual labor we rarely es-cape our jobs. Many are connected through phones and constantly receive calls, texts, and emails. Others spend hours in traffic on their daily commutes or pack on the frequent flyer miles. We spend hours binge-watching our favorite shows. Many children are accustomed to being in front of a screen all the time and no longer know how to play creatively. The statistics for those who continue to leave the Church and all forms of organized religion also continue to rise. While there is no such thing as a “good old days” to return to, there was something to be said for sleeping soundly after putting in a good day’s work, and for a family gathering around the table for a shared meal. For many, this model for eucharist rarely exists. Jesus knows and feels our pains, and calls out, “Come to me, all you who labor and are burdened, and I will give you rest.” -Copyright © J. S.

DID YOU KNOW?
T ips for keeping calm and parenting during stressful times. We are living in unprecedent-ed times, and many parents are
stretched to capacity. The added stress of pandemic living can make it hard to par-ent calmly and effectively when children are acting out, but it’s important to remem-ber that children are also going through a huge period of change right now. Instead of reacting in anger, try these ideas to keep your cool. Talk to a friend – many people are suffering from a lack of physical community, so reach out by phone or text. Pray together as a family, asking for patience, cheerfulness, and whatever other virtues you need to get you through the day. Set an example of for-giveness with your children — ask for it when you need it and grant it when they do. For more tips, get a copy of the VIRTUS® article, “Say it on repeat: I am going to keep my calm!” at https://lacatholics.org/did-you-know/.

IGLESIA Y CAPILLA DE SANTA CLARA www.santaclaraparish.org
COMPARTE LA CARGA
“V engan a mí, todos los que están fatigados y agobiados por la carga, y yo los ali-viaré” (Mateo 11:28).
Esta palabras de nuestro Salvador son un gran contraste con el previo capítulo del mismo Evangelio, cuando nos dice que si no carga-mos nuestra propia cruz, no somos dignos de Cristo. Relacionar estos dos mensajes puede ayudarnos en nuestro camino de fe. Ser seguidor de Cristo ciertamente significa que debemos abrazar la cruz, en su misterio que es sufrimiento y triunfo a la vez. Es algo que no necesitamos hacer solos, ya que la carga suele ser demasiado pesada para llevarla sin ayuda. ¿A quién volcarnos entonces? Podemos vol-carnos al Cuerpo de Cristo, a la comunidad de discí-pulos reunidos para el culto. Cuando sintamos que la carga es demasiado pesada, recordemos que pode-mos compartirla con nuestros hermanos y hermanas en Cristo que pueden traernos descanso. -Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
NO ES NINGUNA CIENCIA ESPACIAL
¿C ómo organizamos? ¿Reducimos? ¿Nos de-dicamos de nuevo a Cristo y a nuestro llamado al Evan-
gelio? Apúntate para ayu-dar en algún apostolado o ministerio, o se voluntario para ayudar en el catecismo para niños. Intégrate a un pequeño grupo de fe. Hazte voluntario en un banco de comida o en Hábitat para la Humanidad. Involúcrate personalmente o como fami-lia. Mientras tanto, regresa a casa, comprométete a revisar un cajón cada día, y toma las cosas a la tien-da de segunda cerca de tu casa o al banco de ropa más cercano. Recuerda las oraciones de los alimentos y de la noche antes de irte a dormir. Dedica un minu-to para leer las Escrituras del día. Da pasos de be-bé. No es ninguna ciencia espacial. Es un compromiso continuo de llevarnos a nosotros mismos como somos, y responder al llamado de Jesús a “venir”.-Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

¿SABÍA USTED?
C onsejos para mantenerse en calma durante la crianza de sus hijos en tiempos de estrés. Esta-mos viviendo tiempos sin prece-
dente, y muchos padres de familia están llenos de responsabilidades. El estrés que se añade el vivir en el tiempo de la pan-demia puede hacer más difícil la crianza de los niños en una forma tranquila y efectiva, cuando los niños muestran un mal compor-tamiento, pero es importante recordar que los niños también están pasando por un gran período de cam-bio en este momento. En lugar de reaccionar con enojo, pruebe estas ideas para mantener la calma. Hable con un/a amigo/a. Muchas personas están sufriendo por la falta de contacto físico con la co-munidad, así que contáctelos por teléfono o por tex-to. Recen juntos en familia, pidiendo por paciencia, por alegría, y por otras virtudes que usted necesite para poder pasar el día. Sea un ejemplo de perdón con sus hijos, pídales perdón cuando usted lo necesite y cuando ellos lo necesiten. Para obtener más con-sejos, obtenga una copia del artículo en inglés de VIRTUS® “Say it on repeat: I am going to keep my calm!” (Repítalo: ¡Voy a mantener la calma!) en https://lacatholics.org/did-you-know/.
