Responsorial Psalm Ps 146:6-7, 8-9, 9-10 R/ Praise the Lord, my soul!

READINGS FOR THE 23RD SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME Reading 1 Is 35:4-7a Thus says the LORD: Say to those whose hearts are frightened: Be strong, fear not! Here is your God, he comes with vindication; with divine recompense he comes to save you. Then will the eyes of the blind be opened, the ears of the deaf be cleared; then will the lame leap like a stag, then the tongue of the mute will sing. Streams will burst forth in the desert, and rivers in the steppe. The burning sands will become pools, and the thirsty ground, springs of water. The word of the Lord. Thanks be to God.

Primera Lectura Is 35, 4-7a Esto dice el Señor: “Digan a los de corazón apocado: ‘¡Animo! No teman. He aquí que su Dios, vengador y justiciero, viene ya para salvarlos’. Se iluminarán entonces los ojos de los ciegos y los oídos de los sordos se abrirán. Saltará como un venado el cojo y la lengua del mudo cantará. Brotarán aguas en el desierto y correrán torrentes en la estepa. El páramo se convertirá en estanque y la tierra seca, en manantial”. Palabra de Dios. Te alabamos, Señor. Salmo Responsorial Del Salmo 145 R/ Alaba, alma mía, al Señor.

Gloria Glory to God in the highest. And on earth peace to men of good will. We praise You. We bless You. We adore you. We glorify You. We give You thanks for Your great glory. O Lord God, heavenly King, God the Father almighty. O Lord Jesus Christ, the Only-begotten Son. O Lord God, Lamb of God, Son of the Father: you Who take away the sins of the world, have mercy on us. You Who take away the sins of the world, receive our prayer. You Who sit at the right hand of the Father, have mercy on us. For you alone are holy. You alone are the Lord. You alone, O Jesus Christ, are most high. Together with the Holy Spirit in the glory of God the Father. Amen.

Gloria a Dios en el cielo, y en la tierra paz a los hombres que ama el Señor. Por tu inmensa gloria te alabamos, te bendecimos, te adoramos, te glorificamos, te damos gracias, Señor Dios, Rey celestial, Dios Padre todopoderoso Señor, Hijo único, Jesucristo.Señor Dios, Cordero de Dios, Hijo del Padre; tú que quitas el pecado del mundo, ten piedad de nosotros; tú que quitas el pecado del mundo, atiende nuestra súplica;tú que estás sentado a la derecha del Padre, ten piedad de nosotros; porque sólo tú eres Santo, sólo tú Señor, sólo tú Altísimo, esucristo, con el Espíritu Santo en la gloria de Dios Padre. Amén.

Reading 2 Jas 2:1-5 My brothers and sisters, show no partiality as you adhere to the faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ. For if a man with gold rings and fine clothes comes into your assembly, and a poor person in shabby clothes also comes in, and you pay attention to the one wearing the fine clothes and say, “Sit here, please,” while you say to the

Segunda Lectura Sant 2, 1-5 Hermanos: Puesto que ustedes tienen fe en nuestro Señor Jesucristo glorificado, no tengan favoritismos. Supongamos que entran al mismo tiempo en su reunión un hombre con un anillo de oro, lujosamente vestido, y un pobre andrajoso, y que fijan ustedes la mirada en el que lleva el traje elegante y le dicen: “Tú, siéntate aquí,

Gospel Mk 7:31-37 Again Jesus left the district of Tyre and went by way of Sidon to the Sea of Galilee, into the district of the Decapolis. And people brought to him a deaf man who had a speech impediment and begged him to lay his hand on him. He took him off by himself away from the crowd. He put his finger into the man’s ears and, spitting, touched his tongue; then he looked up to heaven and groaned, and said to him, “Ephphatha!”— that is, “Be opened!” — And immediately the man’s ears were opened, his speech impediment was removed, and he spoke plainly. He ordered them not to tell anyone. But the more he ordered them not to, the more they proclaimed it. They were exceedingly astonished and they said, “He has done all things well. He makes the deaf hear and the mute speak.” The Gospel of the Lord. Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.

Evangelio Mc 7, 31-37 En aquel tiempo, salió Jesús de la región de Tiro y vino de nuevo, por Sidón, al mar de Galilea, atravesando la región de Decápolis. Le llevaron entonces a un hombre sordo y tartamudo, y le suplicaban que le impusiera las manos. Él lo apartó a un lado de la gente, le metió los dedos en los oídos y le tocó la lengua con saliva. Después, mirando al cielo, suspiró y le dijo: “¡Effetá!” (que quiere decir “¡Abrete!”). Al momento se le abrieron los oídos, se le soltó la traba de la lengua y empezó a hablar sin dificultad. Él les mandó que no lo dijeran a nadie; pero cuanto más se lo mandaba, ellos con más insistencia lo proclamaban; y todos estaban asombrados y decían: “¡Qué bien lo hace todo! Hace oír a los sordos y hablar a los mudos”. Palabra de Dios. Gloria a ti, Señor Jesús.

poor one, “Stand there, ” or “Sit at my feet, ” have you not made distinctions among yourselves and become judges with evil designs? Listen, my beloved brothers and sisters. Did not God choose those who are poor in the world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom that he promised to those who love him? The word of the Lord. Thanks be to God.

cómodamente”. En cambio, le dicen al pobre: “Tú, párate allá o siéntate aquí en el suelo, a mis pies”. ¿No es esto tener favoritismos y juzgar con criterios torcidos? Queridos hermanos, ¿acaso no ha elegido Dios a los pobres de este mundo para hacerlos ricos en la fe y herederos del Reino que prometió a los que lo aman? Palabra de Dios. Te alabamos Señor.

Nice Creed I believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible. I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages, God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father. Through him all things were made. For us and for our salvation he came down from heaven: by the power of the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man. For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate; he suffered death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no end. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son. With the Father and the Son he is adored and glorified. He has spoken through the Prophets. I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church. I confess one baptism for the forgiveness of sins, and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come.

Credo de Nicea Creo en un solo Dios, Padre todo poderoso, Creador del cielo y de la tierra, de todo lo visible y lo invisible. Creo en un solo Señor, Jesucristo, Hijo único de Dios, nacido del Padre antes de todos los siglos: Dios de Dios, Luz de Luz, Dios verdadero de Dios verdadero, engendrado, no creado, de la misma naturaleza del Padre, por quien todo fue hecho; que por nosotros lo hombres, y por nuestra salvación bajó del cielo, y por obra del Espíritu Santo se encarnó de María, la Virgen, y se hizo hombre; y por nuestra causa fue crucificado en tiempos de Poncio Pilato; padeció y fue sepultado, y resucitó al tercer día, según las Escrituras, y subió al cielo, y está sentado a la derecha del Padre; y de nuevo vendrá con Gloria para juzgar a vivos y muertos, y su reino no tendrá fin. Creo en el Espíritu Santo, Señor y dador de vida, que procede del Padre y del Hijo, que con el Padre y el Hijo recibe una misma adoración y gloria, y que habló por los profetas. Creo en la Iglesia, que es una, santa, católica y apostólica. Confieso que hay un solo bautismo para el perdón de los pecados. Espero la resurrección de los muertos y la vida del mundo futuro. Amén.

Teach children how to answer the door safely You would never knowingly let someone dangerous or unsafe into your home. But it is impossible to fully vet every stranger — maintenance worker, new neighbor, salesperson, etc. — who shows up at your door. Teach children a few tips about answering (or not answering) the doorbell. Consider these rules, or something similar, for your family: Always look to see who is at the door first. If the person is a stranger, get an adult to answer the door. Do not open the door to someone you do not know. For more information, request a copy of the VIRTUS® article “Beware of inviting other people – and vulnerability – into your house,” at lacatholics.org/did-you-know.

Enseñe a los niños cómo abrir la puerta de forma segura Usted jamás permitiría a sabiendas que alguien peligroso o inseguro entrara en su hogar. Pero es imposible examinar completamente a cada extraño (trabajador de mantenimiento, nuevo vecino, vendedor, etc.) que se presente a su puerta. Enseñe a los niños algunos consejos sobre cómo contestar (o no contestar) cuando tocan a la puerta o cuando suena el timbre. Considere estas reglas, o algo similar, para su familia: Siempre vea primero por una ventana o por la mirilla de la puerta para ver quién está en la puerta. Si la persona es un extraño, el niño o joven debe pedir a un adulto que abra la puerta. No abra la puerta a alguien que no conozca. Para obtener más información, solicite una copia del artículo de VIRTUS® en inglés, “Beware of inviting other people – and vulnerability – into your house” (Tenga cuidado con invitar a otras personas --y a la vulnerabilidad-- en su casa) en lacatholics.org/did-you-know.
