KEEPING OUR COMMITMENTS

In the musical Fid-dler on the Roof, the husband, Tevye, whose marriage was arranged years and years before, wants to know if his wife really loves him. Was their marriage just an arrangement, a deal? Did his wife, after all

these years, ever love him? Does she still? We need to know if our loving commitments stick. We need to be reminded and reaffirmed. In the first reading, Joshua, Moses’ successor, needed to know if the people would remain faithful to their covenant with the Lord. Joshua was going to lead them to a new life—a settled life. Would they be faithful? Jesus, who identified himself as the very life of his disciples’ life, needed to know: Will you also go away or will you stay? We do not often see Jesus this vulnerable. Peter and the apostles chose to stay. What will we do? Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

GUARDANDO NUESTROS COMPROMISOS En la obra musical El violinista en el tejado, el es-poso, Tevye, cuyo matrimonio había sido planificado por otros muchos años atrás, quiere saber si su espo-sa de veras lo ama. ¿Fue su matrimonio solamente un arreglo, un contrato? Después de tantos años, ¿llegó su mujer a quererlo? ¿Lo quiere todavía? Necesitamos saber si nuestros compromisos son duraderos. Necesitamos que nos lo recuerden y re-afirmen. En la primera lectura, Josué, el sucesor de Moisés, necesitaba saber si el pueblo iba a mantener-se fiel a su alianza con el Señor. Josué iba a llevarlos a una nueva vida –una vida estable. ¿Serían fieles? Jesús, habiéndose identificado como la fuente de vida de sus discípulos, necesitaba saber. ¿Ustedes van a irse también o van a quedarse? Pocas veces ve-mos a Jesús tan vulnerable. Pedro y los apóstoles es-cogieron quedarse. ¿Qué vamos a hacer nosotros? Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

DID YOU KNOW? Back to school: carpool safety Beginning a new school year can mean starting up a new car-pool – trading rides to and from sports and after-school ac-tivities with other parents. Teach your children that they should never get into a car with someone they don’t know. They should also have a parent’s permission before they ac-cept a ride with someone they do know. If you do have to send someone to pick up your kids, establish a family code word. If the driver gives your children the code word, they know that it’s safe to get in the car. For a copy of the article “Safety Rules by the Child Rescue Network” email: [email protected] ¿SABÍA USTED? De vuelta a la escuela: como compartir coches con seguridad El comienzo de un nuevo año escolar puede significar el establecimiento de un nuevo sistema de compartir coches – el intercambio de trasportación entre padres a práctica de deportes y actividades fuera de la escuela. Enseña a sus hijos que nunca deben entrar en un coche con alguien que ellos no conocen. También deben de tener permiso antes de aceptar transportación de alguien conocido. Si usted tiene que enviar a alguien a recoger a sus hijos, establece una palabra clave para su familia. Si el conductor dice la palabra clave correcta, los niños saben que es seguro entrar al coche. Para una copia del artículo completo de Safety Rules by the Child Rescue Network” escriba a: [email protected].

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION

The ministry of permanent deacons has become an

essential part of our parish life today, yet for centuries until

1967, this deeply traditional ministry had virtually disap-

peared. Every priest had first to be ordained a deacon, but

the notion that one could actually embrace a permanent voca-

tion to the diaconate was lost.

The primary ministry of the deacon is to the welfare of

the community, especially its poor, and his role in sacraments

and preaching flows from that. His principal role is to animate

and promote the ministry of all the faithful. Ninety percent

of permanent deacons are married, although the discipline of

celibacy for clerics means that if a deacon is widowed, nor-

mally he cannot remarry, nor can an unmarried deacon marry

once ordained. The deacon does not preside at Mass nor may

he absolve sins. Nor, since anointing of the sick is linked theo-

logically to penance, may he anoint.

Sometimes we are slow to engage with a tradition: Trent

approved permanent deacons in the 1560s, but nothing was

done until the 1960s. The vitality of the long‑delayed restora-

tion has greatly enriched the Church, particularly in the

United States, where the majority of the deacons in the

world serve. —Rev. James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

It’s hard to train a child in a way the

Faith Facts about Blessed Junípero Serra 14 Datos de fe sobre el Beato Junípero Serra

We are sharing with you a series of weekly bulletin posts of Blessed Junípero . Pope Francis is scheduled to canonize Fr. Serra on Sept. 23 at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in Washington D.C. He will became the first saint to be canonized on U.S. soil, and the first

Hispanic saint in America. This will conclude our series. *************************************************

13. During a recent conference in Rome, Archbishop José H. Gomez discussed the importance of the up-coming canonization of Blessed Junípero Serra. Serra will become America’s first Latino saint, and the first saint to be canonized on American soil. “In order for his canoni-zation to bear spiritual fruits in America, we need to start a new conversation about Father Serra and the missionary era,” Archbishop Gomez said.

14. During his homily on Junípero Serra, Pope Francis praised the willingness of Father Serra to abandon the comforts of native Spain to spread the love of God in the New World. “I wonder if today we are able to re-spond with the same generosity and courage to the call of God,” said Pope Francis, during the Mass at the Pontifical North American College in Rome. The Mass was part of a daylong conference on Father Serra sponsored by the Archdiocese of Los Angeles on May 2, 2015.

INTENTION / INTENCIONES

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE

Cuando Jesús dice que hay que comer su cuerpo y be-

ber su sangre (Juan 6:55), los cristianos católicos, literal-

mente, seguimos sus palabras. En esto somos muy funda-

mentalistas: cuando Jesús dice que el pan es su cuerpo y el

vino es su sangre, lo creemos de todo corazón (1 Corintios

11:24-25). Para los católicos, nuestra fe y estilo de vida

están basados en la consagración del pan y vino en el Cuer-

po y la Sangre de Cristo.

La Iglesia primitiva reconocía con tristeza que no to-

dos los que querían seguir a Jesús podían aceptar la reali-

dad de su cuerpo y sangre. Por eso, Juan el evangelista

dice que muchos abandonaron a Jesús cuando éste les

habló del sagrado convite (Juan 6:60-69). De la muche-

dumbre que le seguía, poquísimos continuaron con él. Quie-

nes siguieron acompañándolo reconocían que Jesús tiene

palabras de vida eterna. Esta verdad la vemos reflejada

en la celebración de la misa, pues del Pan de la Palabra pa-

samos al Pan Eucarístico. Escuchamos su Palabra para lue-

go comer su Cuerpo y beber su Sangre a fin de tener vida

eterna. —Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
