Jubilee Year of Mercy
June 12, 2016
Eleventh Sunday in Ordinary Time
On today’s Jubilee for Those Sick and Suffering
Disabilities, Jesus encounters a woman who is “spiritually
ill.” She is thus “disabled” from participating in Israel’s
worshiping community or polite society. Bathing Jesus’
feet with tears, drying them with unveiled hair, anointing
them (Luke 7:38) risk Jesus’ becoming “unclean.” Yet his
mercy welcomes even such inappropriate behavior as her
sincere manifestation of love: “Your sins are forgiven. Go
in peace” (7:48, 50). Go not just in “peace,” but in shalom,
the all-enveloping, life-changing assurance of God’s mercy. She is anonymous, “known in the
city” only as “a sinful woman” (7:37). The character with name and religious title, “Simon the
Pharisee” (7:36, 40), judges her harshly, but himself not at all, and thus forfeits God’s mercy.
This Jubilee Year of Mercy challenges us to self-examination. In which role do we most often
cast ourselves, humble sinner or judgmental Pharisee? Jesus declares that only by an unfailing
willingness to show mercy to fellow sinners can we hope to obtain mercy ourselves (see
Misericordiae Vultus, 9).

please call Cory Mollat (408) 262-2546 x315 or
come to the Faith Formation office to register.
_______________________________________
STAND AND BE COUNTED:
Registering in a parish is a declaration of your
desire to be part of a Catholic Community and a
commitment to the life of the parish family. To
clearly state your Catholic commitment in all its
dimensions brings you advantages, recognition and
responsibilities of many kinds. Being a registered
parishioner makes life much easier when it is time
for infant baptism, school registration, weddings,
when asked to be a baptismal or confirmation
sponsor and even funerals.
We are often asked to provide affidavits for
baptismal and confirmation sponsors. We can only
do this if a person is a registered, active and
contributing member in our parish. How do you
know if you are already registered? A registered
parishioner receives all parish mailings.
So, are you a registered parishioner? If not, please
consider registering. Registration forms are always
available at the Parish Office. Please complete one
today and return it this week if you would like to
join our community.
Congratulations!

GOD’S PRESENCE
Realize above all that you are in God’s presence . . . empty
yourself completely and sit waiting, content with the grace of God,
like a chick who tastes nothing and eats nothing but what its
mother gives it.
—St. Romuald
