January 24, 2016 - Holy Name of Mary
January 24, 2016 3rd Sunday in Ordinary Time Serving San Dimas and La Verne and surrounding communities Staffed by the Congregation of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary Page 2 3rd Sunday in Ordinary Time My dear sisters and brothers, Walking by a pet shop on his way to school, a young boy stopped and stared through the window. Inside were four black puppies playing together. After school he ran home and pleaded with his mother to let him have one of the puppies. “I’ll take care of it, Mom, I will. If you can just give me an advance on my allowance, I’ll have enough money to buy one with my own money. Please, Mom, please.” The mother, knowing full well the complications having a new puppy would bring to a busy household, could not resist her son. “Okay, you can get the puppy, but I will expect you to take care of it.” “Yes, Mom, I will.” Filled with excitement, the little boy ran to the pet shop to buy his new puppy. After determining that the boy had enough money, the pet shop owner brought him to the window to choose his puppy. After a few minutes, the young boy said, “Um…I’ll take the one in the corner.” “Oh no,” said the shop owner, “not that one; he’s crippled. Notice how he just sits there; something is wrong with one of his legs, so he can’t run and play like the rest of the puppies. Choose another one.” Without saying a word, the boy reached down, lifted his pant leg to expose a chrome leg brace to the owner. “No,” he said firmly, “I think I’ll take the puppy in the corner.” It turned out that what disqualified the puppy from being chosen by others is what most qualified him to be chosen by the little boy. It’s amazing how few of us believe in the unqualified grace of God. Oh, yes, God loves us, as long as we’re clean and whole and fixed. But it turns out that what disqualifies you and me from “spirituality” – the mess of our lives and our crippledness – is what most qualifies us to be chosen by Jesus. Spirituality is not a formula, it is not a test, spirituality is not about competency; it is about intimacy. It is not about perfection, it is about connection. The way of the spiritual life begins where we are now in the mess of our lives. Accepting the reality of our broken, flawed lives is the beginning of spirituality not because the spiritual life will remove our flaws but because we let go of seeking perfection and seek God in the mess of our unfixedness. Broken, Blessed, Beloved are you, Love, Fr. Rich January 24, 2016 Mis queridos hermanos y hermanas, Caminando por una tienda de mascotas en su camino a la escuela, un joven se detuvo y miró por la ventana. Dentro había cuatro cachorros negros que juegan juntos. Después de la escuela él corrió a su casa y le rogó a su mamá que le permitirá tener uno de los cachorros. "Yo me encargo de él, mamá, lo haré. Si sólo me puedes dar un adelanto de mi domingo, voy a tener suficiente dinero para comprar uno con mi propio dinero. Por favor, mamá, por favor. " La mamá sabia de las complicaciones que era tener un nuevo cachorro en casa, no pudo resistirse a su hijo. "Está bien, puedes conseguir el cachorro, pero espero que tu tomes el cuidado de él." "Sí, mamá, lo haré." Lleno de entusiasmo, el niño corrió a la tienda de mascotas para comprar su nuevo cachorro. Después de determinar que el chico tenía suficiente dinero, el dueño de la tienda de mascotas lo llevó a la ventana para elegir a su cachorro. Después de unos minutos, dijo el joven, "me quedo con el que está en la esquina." "Oh, no", dijo el dueño de la tienda, "ese no; él está paralizado. Observa cómo él sólo se sienta allí; algo está mal con una de sus piernas, por lo que no puede correr y jugar como el resto de los cachorros. Elija otro". Sin decir una palabra, el niño se agachó, levantó la pierna del pantalón para dejar ver una pierna ortopédica. "No," dijo con firmeza: "Creo que voy a tomar el cachorro en la esquina." Resultó que lo descalificó el cachorro de ser elegido por los demás es lo que más lo calificó para ser elegido por el niño. Es increíble cómo algunos de nosotros creemos en la gracia incondicional de Dios. Oh, sí, Dios nos ama, siempre y cuando estemos limpios y enteros y fijo. Pero resulta que lo que tú y yo descalificamos de "espiritualidad" - el desorden de nuestras vidas y nuestro lisiado - es lo que más nos califica para ser elegidos por Jesús. La espiritualidad no es una fórmula, no es una prueba, la espiritualidad no se trata de nuestra competencia; se trata de la intimidad. No se trata de la perfección, se trata de la conexión. El camino de la vida espiritual comienza en donde estamos hoy en día en el lío de nuestras vidas. La aceptación de la realidad de nuestras vidas rotas, defectuosas es el comienzo de la espiritualidad no porque la vida espiritual se liberase de nuestros defectos, sino porque dejamos ir buscando la perfección y buscamos a Dios en el desorden de nuestra firmeza.

He calls us to care more in our generation to help future generations. This weekly series reminds us that we can make a difference on Earth, for Earth and for God's people everywhere. Here's a suggestion for this week on how making a change in your habits can make this world a better place for all. Simple Actions Go a Long Way-To-Do Tips for Energy Savings in Your Household 1. Reduce, re-use, recycle: It’s not just for cans and bottles anymore – be sure to recycle paper and food scrapings for compost. Re-use items when possible rather than reaching for something new. Instead of buying bottled water, filter your water and put into a re-usable container.

Clement Connolly on the Spirituality of Aging held this past Tuesday! Detention Ministry On December 12, 2015, Day of the Virgin of Guadalupe, a group of volunteers from the Holy Name of Mary Parish visited the youth at Camp Glenn Rocky. In the giving spirit of the holiday, volunteers brought a pastorela, hot chocolate, and snacks to those at the juvenile correction center. What was most important about this visit was the message of love that was conveyed to the youth at this detention center. Boy and girls of our parish, 7-10 years of age, made Christmas cards with drawing of families and Christmas trees expressing the joy and fun they associate with Christmas. Their message to the youth at Camp Glenn Rocky was simple and moving: no matter what has happened to these young people in the past, Jesus loves them and no one is ever alone if they trust in him. El pasado Diciembre 12/2015, fiesta de la Virgen de Guadalupe un grupo de voluntarios de nuestra Iglesia Holly Name of Mary, visitamos a los muchachos en el Centro de detencion Glenn Rocky camp,con el fin de llevarles una pastorela,chocolate caliente y snaks como regalo de Navidad. Lo mas importante de esta visita fue el mensaje de Amor que Jesus envio por intermedio de unos ninos y ninas de las edades de 7-10 .de nuestra Iglesia.Usando unas tarjetas Navidenas elaboradas por ellos,dibujando familas y todo lo relativo a la navidad,con un mensaje claro que la navidad es divertida ,que no estan solos y que Jesus los Ama no importa lo que sucedio en su corto pasado que confien en El.
