From the Desk of Fr. Don MacMillan, S.J.

(Continued on page 3) (Continúa en la página 3)

Dear Parishioners,I’m sure you have seen the banner that hangs over the interior

doors of our church that says we welcome immigrants and refugees. It is a call to being hospitable to displaced persons.

their own homelands in search of safety, jobs and money in order to feed their families. And, yes, that is a large group worldwide.

I have spent a lot of time with BC students on immersion pro-grams to Mexico. I have heard many stories from the poor in Cuer-navaca who told us that their men have all gone “North” to make money to send back to their families. The sad thing is that they almost never hear from them again. Many die in the desert. People who see them as criminals coming to devastate their country murder them. Many are caught and deported back to their own countries or other places not their own. And, sadly, some just didn’t bother to try to send money back.

When we returned to school, we -

rience and wondered what we could do to change this situation. We spent time here in Boston helping the poor and found many migrants from other states struggling to live, to eat and to help their families. These people are migrants and refugees in their own country: “internally displaced persons”.

This year we celebrate the World Day of Migrants and Refugees on Sunday, September 27, 2020. Pope Francis’ theme this year is

With this theme, the Pope is heightening our awareness of a forgotten group: the “internally displaced persons.” These are the people I have encountered in the streets of Boston and other cities where I have been, New York, Chicago and San Francisco to name a few. It is amazing how many internally displaced persons there are. In a poll taken in 2018 there were close to 20 million refugees worldwide and up to 41 million internally displaced persons due to

study the various countries, violence has many forms. Keeping it local for now, refugees in our country are both from

other lands and our own territory of the United States. Every night in Boston there are more than 3800 children and parents who are homeless, living in shelters, cars and emergency rooms, among oth-er places. In Los Angeles, a Mission Church opens up each night to house the homeless and feed them. Probably some in other cities as well. Homelessness is caused by poverty. Cities are expensive and many people cannot afford housing. And with the fallout caused by this Pandemic, it’s only going to get worse. Families are being forced out of their homes due to eviction notices for non-payment of rent. They can’t pay rent because they’ve lost their jobs. Whatever money they can get goes into food to feed their families. Boston has the third largest total population of homeless parents and children

are in Boston Public Schools. Pope Francis is waking us up to the refugees and migrants in our

Estimados Feligreses:Estoy seguro de que han visto el cartel que cuelga sobre las puer-

tas interiores de nuestra iglesia que dice que le damos la bienvenida a inmigrantes y refugiados. Es un llamado a ser hospitalarios con las personas desplazadas.

Probablemente pensamos en los migrantes y refugiados como per-sonas que huyen de sus propias tierras en busca de seguridad, trabajo y dinero para alimentar a sus familias. Y, sí, ese es un grupo grande en todo el mundo.

He pasado mucho tiempo con estudiantes de BC en programas de inmersión en México. He oído muchas historias de los pobres de Cuernavaca que nos dijeron que todos sus hombres se han ido al "Norte" para ganar dinero para enviarlo a sus familias. Lo triste es que casi nunca vuelven a saber de ellos. Muchos mueren en el de-

sierto. La gente que los ve como crim-inales que vienen a devastar a su país los asesinan. Muchos son capturados y deportados a sus propios países u otros lugares que no son los suyos. Y, por desgracia, algunos simplemente no se molestaron en tratar de enviar dinero.

Cuando volvimos a la escuela, pas-

experiencia y nos preguntamos qué podíamos hacer para cambiar esta situación. Pasamos tiempo aquí en Boston ayudando a los pobres y encontramos a muchos migrantes de otros estados que luchaban por vivir, comer y ayudar a sus famil-ias. Estas personas son migrantes y refugiados en su propio país: los "desplazados internos".

Este año celebramos la Jornada Mundial de los Migrantes y Re-fugiados el domingo 27 de septiembre de 2020. El tema del Papa Francisco este año es "Obligados como Jesucristo a huir".

Con este tema, el Papa está llamando a nuestras conciencias sobre un grupo olvidado: los "desplazados internos". Estas son las perso-nas que he encontrado en las calles de Boston y otras ciudades donde he estado, Nueva York, Chicago y San Francisco, por nombrar algu-nas. Es increíble la cantidad de desplazados internos que hay. En una encuesta realizada en 2018 había cerca de 20 millones de refugiados en todo el mundo y hasta 41 millones de desplazados internos debido

que se estudian los diversos países, la violencia tiene muchas formas. Manteniéndolo a nivel local por ahora, los refugiados en nuestro

país son tanto de otras tierras como de nuestro propio territorio de los Estados Unidos. Cada noche en Boston hay más de 3800 niños y padres sin hogar, que viven en refugios, autos y salas de emergencia, entre otros lugares. En Los Ángeles, una Iglesia de Misión se abre cada noche para albergar a los sin techo y alimentarlos. Probable-mente en algunas otras ciudades se hace también. La falta de vivienda es causada por la pobreza. Las ciudades son caras y muchas personas no pueden pagar la vivienda. Y con las consecuencias causadas por esta Pandemia, esto sólo va a empeorar. Las familias están siendo for-zadas a salir de sus casas debido a avisos de desalojo por falta de pago del alquiler. No pueden pagar el alquiler porque han perdido sus tra-bajos. Cualquier dinero que puedan conseguir se destina a la comida para alimentar a sus familias. Boston tiene la tercera mayor población total de padres e hijos sin hogar entre las ciudades estadounidenses.

them. What is needed is a change of attitude, to overcome indiffer-ence and to counter fears with a generous approach of welcoming those who knock at our doors. Then to protect them from exploita-tion, abuse and violence. Then to promote an integral human de-velopment of migrants, exiles and refugees including the internally displaced persons. ‘This takes place by attending to the inestimable goods of justice, peace and the care of creation’ (Apostolic Letter Humanam Progressionem, 17 August 2016). Finally, to integrate which is a two way process, rooted essentially in the joint recogni-tion of the other’s cultural richness: it is not the superimposing of one culture over another, nor mutual isolation with the insidious and dangerous risk of creating ghettoes. And those who arrive do not close themselves off from the culture and traditions of the re-ceiving country (city, state).”

Pope Francis’s letter for this year’s World Day of Migrants and Refugees appeals to us to know in order to understand; to be close in order to serve; to be reconciled, we need to listen; to grow, it is necessary to share; to be involved in order to promote; to cooperate in order to build.

He concludes by exhorting us that ‘Building the Kingdom of God is a duty common to all Christians, and for this reason it is necessary that we learn to cooperate, without yielding to the temp-tation to jealousy, discord and division. To preserve our common home and make it conform more and more to God’s original plan, we must commit ourselves to ensuring international cooperation, global solidarity and local commitment, leaving no one excluded.’

What do we do? Reading words is one thing, but putting them into action is an-

other. One huge ministry we must perform is voting. To vote for

and our common home. Another ministry is to educate both ourselves and others of the

needs of the people who surround us and the world in which we all live.

Another ministry is to pray in thanksgiving for the graces and gifts we have received and the wisdom to use these gifts for the good of all.

On this World Day of Migrants and Refugees, let our minds un-derstand who they are and our hearts be moved to welcome, to pro-tect, to promote and to integrate.

To close this letter in which I have quoted many words of Pope Francis, let me add more words from the Holy Father when he states: “In the light of the tragic events that have marked 2020, I would like this “Message” although concerned with internally displaced persons, to embrace all those who are experiencing situations of precariousness, abandonment, marginalization and rejection as a result of COVID-19.” How are you going to put this Gospel and Pope Francis’ “message”

into practice here in Newton? In Boston? In our world? Fr. Don

Aproximadamente cinco mil niños sin hogar están en las Escuelas Públicas de Boston.

El Papa Francisco nos está llamando la atención sobre los refugia-dos y migrantes en nuestro propio país. Junto con aquellos que han huido de sus propias tierras por seguridad y vida, estos son números increíblemente altos.

El Papa Francisco escribió: "Nuestra respuesta compartida es primero, darles la bienvenida. Lo que se necesita es un cambio de ac-titud, para superar la indiferencia y para contrarrestar los temores con un enfoque generoso de acoger a los que llaman a nuestras puertas. Luego protegerlos de la explotación, el abuso y la violencia. A con-tinuación, promover un desarrollo humano integral de los migrantes, exiliados y refugiados, incluidos los desplazados internos. «Esto se lleva a cabo atendiendo a los inestimables bienes de la justicia, la paz y el cuidado de la creación» (Carta apostólica Humanam Pro-gressionem, 17 de agosto de 2016). Por último, integrar, que es un proceso de doble vía, arraigado esencialmente en el reconocimiento común de la riqueza cultural del otro: no es la superposición de una cultura sobre la otra, ni el aislamiento mutuo con el riesgo insidioso y peligroso de crear guetos. Y los que llegan, para que no se cierren a la cultura y las tradiciones del país receptor (ciudad, estado)".

La carta del Papa Francisco para la Jornada Mundial de los Mi-grantes y Refugiados de este año nos llama a conocer para compren-der; estar cerca para servir; reconciliarnos, tenemos que escuchar; para crecer, es necesario compartir; participar para promover; para

Concluye exhortando a que 'La construcción del Reino de Dios es un deber común a todos los cristianos, y por esta razón es necesario que aprendamos a cooperar, sin ceder a la tentación de los celos, la discordia y la división. Para preservar nuestra casa común y hacer que se ajuste cada vez más al plan original de Dios, debemos comprome-ternos a garantizar la cooperación internacional, la solidaridad global y el compromiso local, sin dejar a nadie excluido».

¿Qué haremos? Leer palabras es una cosa, pero ponerlas en acción es otra. Un gran

ministerio que debemos llevar a cabo es votar. Votar por funcionarios que entiendan que su posición es cuidar de todas las personas y de nuestra casa común.

Otro ministerio es educarnos tanto a nosotros mismos como a los demás de las necesidades de las personas que nos rodean y del mundo en el que todos vivimos.

Otro ministerio es orar en acción de gracias por las gracias y los dones que hemos recibido y la sabiduría para usar estos dones para el bien de todos.

En esta Jornada mundial de los migrantes y refugiados, que nues-tras mentes entiendan quiénes son y que nuestros corazones se mue-van para acoger, proteger, promover e integrar.

Para cerrar esta carta en la que he citado muchas palabras del Papa Francisco, permítanme añadir más palabras del Santo Padre cuando dice: "A la luz de los trágicos acontecimientos que han marcado 2020, me gustaría que este "Mensaje" aunque se preocupara por los despla-zados internos, abrazara a todos aquellos que están experimentando situaciones de precariedad, abandono, marginación y rechazo como resultado de COVID-19."¿Cómo van a poner en práctica este Evangelio y el "mensaje" del Papa Francisco aquí en Newton? ¿En Boston? ¿En nuestro mundo?

Una carta de ARRUPEEl 27 de septiembre San Ignacio celebrará la Jornada Mundial de los Migrantes y Refugiados con otras comunidades católi-

cas de todo el mundo. Esa fecha coincide con el primer aniversario de apoyo por parte de nuestra parroquia a una familia de diez refugiados que huyeron de la persecución en Etiopía.

A través de su generosidad los voluntarios de ARRUPE fueron capaces de amoblar un apartamento y subsidiar su alquiler para su primer año en Boston.

Más importante aún, han estado recibiendo la atención médica muy necesaria para sus múltiples problemas de salud.

Muchos voluntarios maravillosos de la parroquia han estado proporcionando amistad y apoyo a esta viuda y sus hijos.También hemos tenido la suerte de haber sido apoyados por una iglesia asociada, Trinity Parish of Newton, una comuni-

Purpose: Stop Wasting Water!

About 70% of our water is used for growing food and animal feed, so reducing food waste and

changing our diets are good steps in the right direction. Another way we indirectly consume water is

through consumerism — phones, clothes, bottles, and more. While it’s difficult to control the water

used to grow our food and make our stuff, we can take important steps to directly reduce the

water we use in our homes and yards.

Action Tip: Shift to Water-Smart Landscaping•Choose Drought-Friendly Plants. Planting drought-friendly trees, shrubs, and other

plants can lower water bills, reduce water use, and keep runoff out of local waterways.

•Build Healthy Soils. Good soil is essential to healthy gardens and yards and can greatly

reduce water needs. Adding mulch can be a quick, cost-effective way to save water. And

adding organic matter like peat moss or compost improves soil’s water holding capacity

and reduces the need to irrigate.

•Install Efficient Irrigation. An efficient irrigation system applies the right amount of water

to the right place — at the right time. You can dramatically reduce water use by using

proper irrigation scheduling.

•Give up the grass lawn. There are many water friendly alternatives.

Commission, has advised us that masks are effective ONLY if they cover both your nose and your mouth,

with a snug fit over the nasal bridge. This is the best way to prevent your respiratory droplets from

escaping into the space around you and onto others.

Further, he pointed out that recent studies have shown that, while valved masks may make it easier for

you to inhale, they are ineffective in preventing your exhaled breath from

contaminating the air around you.

Valved masks of any kind, therefore, will be prohibited for use during Mass at St. Ignatius. The Greeter

at your liturgy will happily provide you with an acceptable mask to wear as you enter the church. We also

ask that you wear your mask properly throughout the Mass.

This is for the safety of us all. We appreciate your cooperation.

-Fr. Joe
