Fourteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time
July 3, 2016
May I never boast except in the cross
of our Lord Jesus Christ.
— Galatians 6:14
TODAY’S READINGS
First Reading — Rejoice and be glad for I will spread prosperity over Jerusalem like a river, and the wealth of nations like an
overflowing torrent (Isaiah 66:10-14c).
Psalm — Let all the earth cry out to God with joy (Psalm 66).
Second Reading — May I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ (Galatians 6:14-18).
Gospel — Jesus sends his disciples out in pairs to bring his peace and proclaim the kingdom of God
(Luke 10:1-12, 17-20) [1-9].

PEACE
The greeting of peace at Mass adds substance to a message of today’s readings: peace is relational. When we greet in
peace the person near us at Mass, we share the touch of a handshake or embrace, sincere eye contact, and friendly words.
The scriptures speak of a similar peace. The first reading from Isaiah describes the peace of the holy city, Jerusalem, a
place of prosperity and comfort where the “LORD’s power shall be known to his servants” (Isaiah 66:14c).
The Christian understanding of peace changes slightly. Paul writes of the “peace and mercy” on all who are created anew.
Jesus describes a feeling of peace that will rest on those who accept his disciples and their message.
Peace is both an absence of strife and a personal blessing. May we always and sincerely bring peace to our own lives as
we share it with others. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
Some say tomato—and some say tomahto—you know the old song. What do you say when you arrive at church and see a font
prepared, a baby in the wings, the paschal candle burning? Well, maybe you will say that “we’re having a baptism today,” or maybe
you say “we are having a christening.” The proper term is baptism, since that is the name of the sacrament. But the persistent use of
“christening” in our culture, probably from due to the influence of the Episcopal Church, is interesting.
Baptism, an ancient word, is from the Greek meaning to dip or to dunk. Christening is an Old English word that describes perfectly well that more than getting splashed with water, the person being baptized is being “Christ-ed.” No matter what you call it,
there’s always water involved, and then an anointing with chrism—fragrant olive oil consecrated as a sign of Christ’s presence—
poured upon the brow as we say, “As Christ was anointed Priest, Prophet, and King, so may you live always as a member of his
body, sharing everlasting life.”
So, in being Christ-ed, you are conformed to his image, your life is expected to be a retelling of his life in miniature and you—
even though you may be squirming or sleeping—are commissioned to be a priest, a prophet, a king. This means that you are called
to be one who worships, you are called to speak the truth, you are called to shape the world and exercise right judgment. That is the
deepest treasure of our tradition, and every time you gather to celebrate a baptism, you renew your vows precisely so that you can be
more “Christ-ed.” No matter what vocabulary you assign to the liturgy, the key is transformation of the human person in the community of the Body of Christ.

Service for
Anointing of the Sick
July 8, 2016 at 10:30am
It is fitting to receive the Anointing of the Sick just prior to
a serious operation. The same holds for the elderly whose
frailty becomes more pronounced.
The anointing of the sick is administered to bring spiritual and even physical
strength during an illness, especially near the time of death. If you are infirm because of age or chronic serious illness, facing medical procedures, e.g. surgery,
chemotherapy tests, or suffering severe mental or emotional stress you should be
anointed. The illness should be of a serious nature but not necessarily lifethreatening.
If you have any doubt if you should receive the sacrament Fr. James will be glad
to let you know.
The Catechism of the Catholic Church #1515
Jubilee Year of Mercy
July 3, 2016
Fourteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time
Last Sunday, Jesus rebuked James and John for wanting to “call
down fire from heaven” (Luke 9:54–55) on an unwelcoming town.
As he sends forth disciples today, Jesus again forbids retaliation
against non-receptive listeners (10:10–11), showing us how to be Jesus’ “missionaries of mercy” this Jubilee Year of Mercy. Like the
first disciples, we are sent not to proclaim ourselves but Jesus. As Jesus sent them in pairs, so are we also to work together in the community of the Church. We often describe the Church as Isaiah describes
Jerusalem in today’s first reading, our comforting, nurturing Mother (Isaiah 66:13). So, going
forth gently, like lambs among wolves (Luke 10:3), we share comforting peace, nurturing
food and drink (Luke’s image for Eucharist), and Jesus’ healing promise of unfailing, unconditional mercy (10:5, 7, 9). Thus Jesus bids us proclaim the kingdom of God by showing what
God’s kingdom looks like in action. “Go, preach the Gospel,” Pope Francis’ saintly namesake
of Assisi is said to have instructed his first friars, “and when necessary, use words!”

No permita Dios que yo me gloríe
en algo que no sea la cruz
de nuestro Señor Jesucristo.
— Gálatas 6:14
LECTURAS DE HOY
Primera lectura — Regocíjense y alégrense porque extenderé la prosperidad sobre
Jerusalén como un río (Isaías 66:10-14c).
Salmos — Las obras del Señor son admirables
(Salmo 66 [65]).
Segunda lectura — Que nunca me gloríe excepto en la cruz de nuestro Señor Jesucristo (Gálatas 6:14-18).
Evangelio — Jesús envía sus discípulos de dos en dos a llevar su paz a la gente (Lucas
10:1-12, 17-20) [1-9].

LA PAZ
El saludo de la paz en la Misa fundamenta un mensaje de las lecturas de hoy: la paz es
relacional. Cuando le damos la paz a la persona que está cerca de nosotros en la Misa, compartimos el roce de un apretón de manos o un abrazo, el contacto visual sincero y palabras
amistosas.
Las Escrituras hablan de una paz similar. La primera lectura de Isaías describe la paz
como la ciudad sagrada, Jerusalén, un lugar de prosperidad y de consuelo donde “Los siervos del Señor conocerán su poder”.
El entendimiento cristiano de la paz cambia ligeramente. San Pablo escribe sobre “la
paz y la misericordia” para todos los que son nuevas criaturas. Jesús describe un sentimiento
de paz que se posará sobre los que aceptan a sus discípulos y a su mensaje.
La paz es tanto la ausencia de conflictos como una bendición personal. Que siempre y
sinceramente traigamos paz a nuestras propias vidas mientras la compartimos con los demás. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE
En muchos santuarios de latinoamerica y Europa se pueden encontrar diversas
ofrendas que han dejado los fieles a través de los siglos. Entre estas ofrendas es de
particular relieve el exvoto. Exvoto (una frase en latín que se traduce “del voto”) es
el regalo que se le presenta al santo o a la santa en reconocimiento del favor recibido. Esto también se llama “manda”.
Los exvotos o mandas toman varias formas desde pequeñas medallas en forma
de la parte del cuerpo que fue sanado hasta pinturas del milagro concedido. El exvoto más antiguo en América es de una pintura mandada a hacer por Hernán Cortés en
honor de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe de Extremadura (España). Esta imagen reconocía el hecho de ser salvado del piquete de un alacrán mientras estaba en México. Lamentablemente esta pintura se extravió en el siglo XIX.
En realidad el santo o la santa no necesita el exvoto pero los creyentes sí. Estas
mandas nos recuerdan el poder de la intercesión divina en la vida humana. También
nos invitan al agradecimiento de los favores que Dios nos hace.

Servicio para Unción a los Enfermos
8 de Julio de 2016 a las 10:30am
Es apropiado recibir la Unción de los enfermos antes
de una operación seria. Lo mismo se aplica para los
ancianos cuya fragilidad se hace más pronunciada.
La unción de los enfermos se administra para traer espiritual e incluso la
fuerza física durante una enfermedad, especialmente cerca del momento
de la muerte. Si están enfermos a causa de su edad o enfermedad grave,
crónica frente a procedimientos médicos, por ejemplo, cirugía, quimioterapia, pruebas o sufrimiento grave de estrés emocional o mental debe
ser ungido. La enfermedad debe ser de carácter grave pero no necesariamente mortal.
Si tiene alguna duda de si debe recibir el sacramento Fr. James estará
encantado de informarle de ello. El Catecismo de la Iglesia Católica #1515
