REFLECTIONS ON
“ EVERYTHING BELONGS TO GOD”
The first reading from the prophet Isaiah
concerns the Persian King Cyrus, called the Lord’s
“anointed.” Cyrus deserves this title because he
ended the Babylonian captivity of the Jews.
However, Isaiah reminds us that it was God who gave
Cyrus his power. He may be a great king, but “I am
the LORD and there is no other,” says God (Isaiah
45:5).
Today’s Gospel is also concerned with worldly
power. In the passage from Matthew, the Pharisees
try to trick Jesus into speaking against the emperor.
His famous answer is the perfect reply. Like the kings
of old, Caesar can be given the respect due his
position, but everything belongs to God.
In the second reading, Paul gives thanks for all
who are faithful to Jesus Christ and his gospel. He,
too, reminds us that our call and the power to be
faithful come from God.

LECTURA DE HOY
Evangelio— Devuelve al César lo que es del César y
a Dios lo que es de Dios.
Mateo 22:15-21
Señor de Los Milagros
Esta tradicion de 350 años comenzo cuando un esclavo
de Angola pinto a Cristo crucificado en un mural. Este
mural sobrevivio dos tremendos temblores que destruyo
casi toda la ciudad y dejo el mural intacto. Cada octubre, las calles de Lima se llenan a venerar a esta
imagen que es cargada en los hombros de los fieles
vestidos en los tradicionales habitos morados, con las
samuhadoras cargando el incienso y cantando el himno
a nuestro Señor. Esta imagen es venerada en muchas
ciudades alrededor del mundo. Una vez mas, le invitamos a la Misa y Procesion que se llevara a cabo
aqui en San Timoteo el domingo 26 de Octubre a las
12 PM.
Venta de Comida Hispana:
Gracias a todos que participaron en la Venta de Comida
Hispana este pasado domingo 12 de octubre. Pudimos
recaudar $1,787.00 para nuestra Iglesia. Esto no
hubiera sido possible sin su generosa contribuicion. A
todos aquellos que prepararon la riquisima comida, a
todos aquellos que compraron la comida, a todos
aquellos que ayudaron a preparar el salon y que se
quedaron a limpiar y a los Guatemaltecos y Peruanos
que bailaron para nosotros, Muchisimas Gracias!

“Viviendo el Evangelio con Gozo”
Señor de los Milagros / Our Lord of Miracles
350 year old tradition: began when an Angolan slave painted
a mural of Christ crucified. It survived 2 massive earthquakes
which leveled the city and left only the mural standing. Every
October, streets in Lima come alive as the image is carried on
the shoulders of the faithful, wearing the traditional purple
vestments, with the smell of incense and the beautiful hymns
sung to Our Lord. The image is now venerated throughout
many cities around the world. We invite you to Mass and our
traditional procession held after the 12 PM (Spanish) Mass
