Esa pobre viuda ha echado en la alcancia más que todos.
Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal Parish Parroquia de Nuestra Señora de la Medalla Milagrosa Esa pobre viuda ha echado en la alcancia más que todos. Marcos 12:43 A WORD OF WELCOME We welcome those of you who may be joining us for the first time, whether you are visiting from another parish or from out of town. We, as Catholics, throughout the world are united through our faith. May you find your visit to Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal Parish to be spiritually rewarding and may you feel the warmth of our hospitality. www. MiraculousMedalChurch.org www.MiraculousMedalChurch.org November 8, 2015 THIRTY-SECOND SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME Page 2 ENTREGA TOTAL GIVING ALL Trusting widows play a significant role in this weekend’s readings. At the point of poverty, when giving even the smallest amount of what they had could imperil their health and well-being, they trusted God and gave anyway. What is important about their giving is not what or how much they gave, but how they gave it. Without selfishness, they gave to help others. Their giving was from the heart, with little hope or intention of receiving any sort of reward or recognition for their generosity. The monetary values of the widows’ gifts were small, but their value measured in the Kingdom was priceless. There is a significant similarity between their gift and the gift Jesus gave each of us. The widows offered their lives for God. Jesus offered his life for us. Las viudas confiadas juegan un importante papel en las lecturas de esta semana. Aunque eran pobres y el dar aún algo bien pequeño podría poner en peligro su salud y bienestar, confiaban en Dios y daban lo que podían. Lo que es importante sobre sus donativos no es la cantidad que daban, sino que daban algo. Sin egoísmo, daban para ayudar a otros. Su dar salía del corazón, con poca esperanza o intención de recibir algún premio o reconocimiento por su generosidad. El valor monetario de los dones de las viudas eran pequeños, pero su valor en la medida del Reino era inestimable. Hay una gran semejanza entre su regalo y el regalo que Jesús ha dado a cada uno de nosotros. Las viudas ofrecieron sus vidas a Dios. Jesús ofreció su vida por nosotros. PARISH LIFE DISCIPLESHIP OPPORTUNITY Are you looking for some ways in which you can be involved in our parish? Here is an exciting opportunity that would help us further promote the Gospel: Sight and Sound Ministry Assistant This ministry involves creating content for what is displayed using our projection system. Stop up to the choir loft and speak with one of our Sight & Sound Ministers about the fun you can have with the system while proclaiming the Gospel and making our Parish even more welcoming. High School students welcome! 3 GUYS NAMED “FRANK” Don’t miss our message series at each Mass this weekend and next weekend. We will present three guys named “Frank.” Each saint used the gifts God gave him to evangelize the culture around them. We will meet Francis de Sales, Francis of Assisi and Francis Xavier. In their own ways, they received the Good News of Jesus and spread it into a world that often didn’t want to hear it. Sound familiar??
