Reflection from Fr. Andres

Readings: Jeremiah 23: 1-6; Ephesians 2: 13-18; Mark 6: 30-34 The Gospel of this Sunday talks about compassion, about mercy, about generosity, about love, love of our neighbor, even love of those, who do not love us. It is about humanity, and about Christianity in which all are our broth-ers, and sisters. Despite the words in today's readings about the Shepherds, this Gospel is not even about priesthood. But it is about what it means to be Church. About the mutual caring for one another, about valuing, and nurturing every member of Christ’s flock. And so, it is about Baptism. The Baptism we, all Christians share in Christ. Already a children of God through our humanity, we became one of the re-deemed through baptism, one of his precious flock, a member of his family. We are joined together in the Unity of the Church, and also in its mission of compassion and love. Like the Apostles, following the example of Christ him-self, we are called to care, beyond the responsibility of the moment, as a duty throughout life. May we always be blessed by God, and strengthened by his Grace to live out our responsibilities, as brothers and sisters in Christ. Amen.

Lecturas: Jeremías 23: 1-6; Efesios 2: 13-18; Marcos 6: 30-34 El Evangelio de este domingo habla sobre la compasión, sobre la miseri-cordia, sobre la generosidad, sobre el amor, el amor al prójimo, incluso el amor hacia aquellos que no nos aman. Se trata de la humanidad y del cris-tianismo en el que todos son nuestros hermanos y hermanas. A pesar de las palabras en las lecturas de hoy sobre los pastores, este Evangelio ni siquiera habla del sacerdocio. Pero se trata de lo que significa ser Iglesia. Sobre el cuidado mutuo, sobre la valoración y el cuidado de cada miembro del rebaño de Cristo. Y entonces, se trata del Bautismo. El bautismo que todos los cristianos compartimos en Cristo. Ya somos hijos de Dios a través de nuestra humani-dad, nos convertimos en uno de los redimidos por el bautismo, uno de sus preciosos rebaños, un miembro de su familia. Estamos unidos en la Unidad de la Iglesia, y también en su misión de compasión y amor. Al igual que los Apóstoles, siguiendo el ejemplo de Cristo mismo, estamos llamados a cuidar, más allá de la responsabilidad del momento, como un deber durante toda la vida. Que siempre seamos bendecidos por Dios y fortalecidos por su Gracia para vivir nuestras responsabilidades como hermanos y hermanas en Cristo. Amén.
