Father’s Corner Rincón del Padre
Queridos hermanos y hermanas en Cristo, el Procurador General de Virginia anunció esta semana que investigará las denuncias de abuso sexual de menores por parte del clero y cómo los líderes de la Iglesia han manejado las denuncias de abuso en todo el Commonwealth. Nuestro obispo y el obispo Knestout de la Diócesis de Richmond publicaron recientemente una declaración sobre la investi-gación. En el sitio web diocesano encontrará recursos, así como respuestas detalladas a las preguntas frecuentes so-bre los problemas críticos que enfrentamos dentro de nuestra Iglesia. Finalmente, el viernes, el obispo Burbidge publicó un episodio de El caminar de Humildad durante el cual aborda directamente la investigación y algunas de las preguntas que ha recibido. Todos estos recursos están dis-ponibles en: ArlingtonDiocese.org/ChildProtection
Además de la oración ferviente por todas las víctimas de abuso sexual, ofrezca también sus oraciones para que la Iglesia sea purificada y fortalecida al volver a comprome-terse con una mayor responsabilidad y continuar trabajan-do por el bien del pueblo de Dios.
Pope St. John Paul II wrote in his 1992 Post Synodal Apostolic Exhortation, “The priest is called to be the living image of Jesus Christ, the spouse of the Church.(49) Of course, he will always remain a member of the community as a believer alongside his other brothers and sisters who have been called by the Spirit, but in virtue of his configuration to Christ, the head and shepherd, the priest stands in this spousal relationship with regard to the community. "Inasmuch as he represents Christ, the head, shepherd and spouse of the Church, the priest is placed not only in the Church but also in the forefront of the Church."(50) In his spiritual life, therefore, he is called to live out Christ's spousal love toward the Church, his bride. Therefore, the priest's life ought to radiate this spousal character, which demands that he be a witness to Christ's spousal love and thus be capable of loving people with a heart which is new, generous and pure - with genuine
self - detachment, with full, constant and faithful dedication and at the same time with a kind of "divine jealousy" (cf. 2 Cor. 11:2) and even with a kind of maternal tenderness, capable of bearing "the pangs of birth" until "Christ be formed" in the faithful (cf. Gal. 4:19).” This spousal character is absolutely critical to the life and ministry of any priest. This is because it reflects the reality of laying down one’s life for the sake of another. All of us have an obligation to pray for more priestly vocations (see Mathew 9:38, Luke 10:2), but it is necessary that we beg the Master of the Harvest to raise up more young men who have a heart after the Spousal Heart of our Lord. As a parish, we are blessed to have one of our own members studying for Priestly ministry. Please keep Emmanuel Carreño in your prayers; and pray and beg for more vocations.
United with you in prayer for more vocations,
Fr. Dobbins
Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, the Virginia Attorney General announced this week that he will be investigating allegations of sexual abuse of minors by clergy as well as how allegations of abuse have been handled by Church leaders throughout the Commonwealth. Our Bishop and Bishop Knestout of the Diocese of Richmond recently pub-lished a statement addressing the investigation. On the di-ocesan website you will find resources as well as detailed answers to frequently asked questions regarding the critical issues we are facing within our Church. Lastly, on Friday, Bishop Burbidge published an episode of The Walk Hum-bly Podcast, during which he directly addresses the investi-gation and some of the questions he has received. All these resources are available at: ArlingtonDiocese.org/ChildProtection
In addition to fervent prayer for all victims of sexual abuse, please also offer your prayers that the Church will be purified and made stronger by recommitting to greater accountability and continuing to work for the good of God’s people.
El Papa San Juan Pablo II escribió en su Exhortación apostólica post sinodal de 1992, “el sacerdote está lla-mado a ser imagen viva de Jesucristo Esposo de la Igle-sia (49) Ciertamente es siempre parte de la comuni-dad a la que pertenece como creyente, junto con los otros hermanos y hermanas con-vocados por el Espíritu, pero en virtud de su configura-ción con Cristo, Cabeza y Pastor, se encuentra en esta situación esponsal ante la comunidad. «En cuanto re-presenta a Cristo, Cabeza, Pastor y Esposo de la Igle-sia, el sacerdote está no sólo en la Iglesia, sino también al frente de la Iglesia»[50]. Por tanto, está llamado a revivir en su vida espiritual el amor de Cristo Esposo con la Iglesia esposa. Su vida debe estar iluminada y orientada también por este rasgo esposa, que le pide ser testigo del amor de Cristo como Esposo y, por eso, ser capaz de amar a la gente con un corazón nuevo, gran-de y puro, con auténtica re-nuncia de sí mismo, con en-trega total, continua y fiel, y
a la vez con una especie de «celo» divino (cf.2 Cor 11, 2), con una ternura que in-cluso asume matices del ca-riño materno, capaz de ha-cerse cargo de los «dolores de parto» hasta que «Cristo no sea formado» en los fieles (cf. Gál 4, 19).” Este carácter conyugal es absolutamente crítico para la vida y el ministerio de cual-quier sacerdote. Esto se debe a que refleja la realidad de entregar la vida de uno por el bien de otro. Todos nosotros tenemos la obligación de orar por más vocaciones sa-cerdotales (ver Mateo 9:38, Lucas 10: 2), pero es necesa-rio que roguemos al Maestro de la Cosecha que levante a más jóvenes que tengan un corazón después del cónyu-ge. Corazón de nuestro Se-ñor. Como parroquia, tene-mos la bendición de que uno de nuestros miembros estu-die para el ministerio sacer-dotal. Por favor, mantengan a Emmanuel Carreño en sus oraciones y recen y rueguen por más vocaciones.
Unidos contigo en oración por más vocaciones,
P. Dobbins
