From the Pastor’s Desk Twenty-sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time

Theme: “The Invisibility of the Poor and Needy…” My dear brethren we are celebrating the 26th Sunday in ordinary time. We are being

warned today to be careful how we live our lives in a more simple way. We should be

careful how we manage the resources God blessed us with. Life in abundance without

reference to the poor and needy is life without destination. The scripture today warns

against luxury-loving and not being concerned about our unfortunate fellow humans. We

should not presume there are not less privileged people in our midst. “Did you not know

that such poverty existed right here?” You should not wait to be told by another person that

poverty exists all around us. In the gospel, we read that the man’s eyes were opened too

late. Listen well, Abraham tells all who live luxuriously— “You have Moses and the

prophets, do we not?” Yes of course!

The rich man engages in conspicuous consumption. He feasts extravagantly every day. He

wears the finest clothes. Outside his home is a beggar named Lazarus. He is covered with

sores. He would be satisfied with the scraps that fall from the rich man’s table. The poor

man Lazarus is invisible to him. This is the problem in our contemporary world. The poor

are not seen, heard or considered when plans are made and reactions are considered. The

poor exit but they do not count. What they think, feel, and desire of hope is of no account.

We can ignore them without any qualms of conscience. continued on page 3

Vegísimo-sexto Tiempo Ordinario

Tema: “La Invisibilidad de los Pobres y Necesitados …”

Mis queridos hermanos, estamos celebrando el Domingo 26 en el tiempo ordinario. Hoy se

nos advierte que tengamos cuidado de cómo vivimos nuestras vidas de una manera más

simple. Debemos tener cuidado de cómo manejamos los recursos con los que Dios nos

bendijo. La vida en abundancia sin referencia a los pobres y necesitados es la vida sin

destino. La escritura de hoy advierte contra los amantes del lujo y no preocuparse por

nuestros desafortunados seres humanos. No debemos suponer que no hay personas menos

privilegiadas entre nosotros. “¿No sabías que tal pobreza existía aquí?” No debes esperar a

que otra persona te diga que la pobreza existe a nuestro alrededor. En el evangelio, leemos

que los ojos del hombre se abrieron demasiado tarde. Escuche bien, Abraham le dice a

todos los que viven lujosamente: “Usted tiene a Moisés y a los profetas, ¿no?” ¡Sí, por

El hombre rico se dedica al consumo conspicuo. Se da un festín extravagante todos los

días. Lleva la mejor ropa. continuado en pagina 3

(Continúado de la página 1)

Fuera de su casa hay un mendigo llamado Lázaro. Está cubierto de

llagas. Estaría satisfecho con las sobras que caen de la mesa del

hombre rico. El pobre hombre Lázaro es invisible para él. Este es

el problema en nuestro mundo contemporáneo. Los pobres no son

vistos, escuchados o considerados cuando se hacen planes y se

consideran las reacciones. Los pobres salen pero no cuentan. Lo

que piensan, sienten y desean de esperanza no tiene importancia.

Podemos ignorarlos sin ningún reparo de conciencia.

En nuestro mundo contemporáneo, sabemos que los pobres con

demasiada frecuencia viven en otro mundo. No se ven en la

televisión (excepto en documentales que pocos miran y pronto se

olvidan). No están acostumbrados a vender productos ni a decirle

cómo invertir su dinero. No tienen casas cerca del mar, ni se

reúnen en las playas para jugar voleibol. Viven en edificios sin

terminar y casas hechas de barro. La gente pobre no vive en las

grandes ciudades, sino en las zonas marginales. Para decirlo todo,

los pobres permanecen invisibles e inalcanzables.

Amos hoy describe la vida lujosa de su tiempo y culpa a los ricos

por no preocuparse por el colapso de Joseph. El “ay” de este

mensaje se dirige como la palabra de Dios a los ricos de todos los

tiempos y culturas. Debemos tener en cuenta que Amós no

condena a los ricos y ricos, sino a los ricos y ricos, que cerraron

sus mentes y corazones a los pobres y necesitados que dependían

de su riqueza para sobrevivir. El Señor “da” comida a los

hambrientos,” pero necesita nuestras manos para distribuirla.

“¡Bienaventurado el que mantiene la fe para siempre, asegura la

justicia para los oprimidos, da comida a los hambrientos!”

La conexión entre la riqueza y la invisibilidad de los pobres está

llena de historia. El profeta Amós está predicando al Reino del

Norte de Israel. Los ricos son complacientes. Toman la calma y la

fiesta sin tener en cuenta a los pobres. Todo el tiempo, están

espiritualmente muertos, están espiritualmente ciegos, “¡No se

enferman por el colapso de José!” Nada les concierne sino sus

propios deseos egoístas. Pero el final de esto se acerca rápida-

mente. El exilio espera a aquellos que están llenos y satisfechos.

“La juerga desenfrenada llegará a su fin.”

Mis queridos hermanos y hermanas, hoy en nuestro mundo,

necesitamos líderes religiosos y políticos que se ajusten a la

descripción de trabajo proporcionada por San Pablo, “los hombres

de Dios que buscan después de eso tienen integridad, piedad, fe,

amor, firmeza y un espíritu gentil.” En nuestra comunidad

(OLGC) y en todo el mundo, necesitamos desesperadamente

líderes que vean su autoridad como una confianza del “Rey de

Reyes y Señor de Señores.” Necesitamos líderes que nos ayuden a

ver necesidades de los pobres. Tales líderes abren nuestros ojos y

nos dejan ver que Lázaro todavía está sentado esperando los restos

de nuestra mesa. Lázaro espera a hacerse visible. ¡Nuestra

salvación depende de esta conciencia!

(Continued from page 1)

In the case of Lazarus, St. Luke tells us that the “dogs even

came and licked his sores.” Even the street animals are

sensitive to the needs of this beggar. Lazarus is not invisible

to the dogs. The dogs reached out to Lazarus more than the

rich man who continued to feast and make merry. However,

the rich man’s wealth and greed have fixed his eyes on the

visible and the immediate. At times, we, too continue to

search for more and more in hope that someday we will

have enough for security and peace.

In our contemporary world, we know that the poor too often

live in another world. They are not seen on the television

(except on documentaries which few watch and are soon

forgotten.) They are not used to selling products or tell you

how to invest your money. They do not have houses near

the sea, nor do they gather on beaches to play volleyball.

They live in unfinished buildings and houses made of mud.

The poor people do not live in big cities but rather in the

slum areas. To say it all, the poor remain invisible and

unreachable.

Amos today describes the luxurious living of his time and

blames the wealthy for not caring about the collapse of

Joseph. The “woe” of this message is addressed as God’s

word to the wealthy of all times and cultures. We should

bear in mind that Amos is not condemning the rich and

wealthy, rather the rich and the wealthy, who closed their

minds and hearts to the poor and needy that depended on

their wealth for survival. The Lord “gives” food to the

hungry,” but he needs our hands to distribute it. “Blessed is

he who keeps faith forever, secures justice for the op-

pressed, gives food to the hungry!”

The connection between riches and the invisibility of the

poor is steeped in history. The prophet Amos is preaching

to the Northern Kingdom of Israel. The rich are complacent.

They take their ease and feast with no regard to the poor.

All the while, they are spiritually dead, they are spiritually

blind— “They are not made ill by the collapse of Joseph!”

Nothing concerns them but their own selfish desires. But

the end of this is fast approaching. Exile awaits those who

are full and satisfied. “Wanton revelry shall come to an

end.”

My dear brothers and sisters, today in our world, we need

religious and political leaders who fit the job description

provided by St. Paul—“men of God that you seek after that

have integrity, piety, faith, love, steadfastness, and a gentle

spirit.” In our community (OLGC) and the entire world, we

are desperately in need of leaders who see their authority as

a trust from the “King of Kings and Lord of Lords!” We

need leaders who help us to see the needs of the poor. Such

leaders open our eyes and let us see that Lazarus still sits

waiting for the scraps from our table. Lazarus waits to be

made visible. Our salvation depends on this awareness!
