BULLETIN & PULPIT ANNOUNCEMENT DEADLINE: Monday by 9:00 AM

Mission Statement Our parish purpose is to use our faith in God and our

personal experience and talents to love, teach, and inspire

all people so that we follow and serve Jesus, in word and

deed, to build up the Kingdom of God.

Dear brothers and sisters,

This Sunday’s Gospel tells the

parable of salvation history. The

landowner is God. The vineyard is

the kingdom. The workers hired at

dawn are the Israelites, to whom He

first offered His covenant. Those

hired later in the day are the Gentiles,

the non-Israelites, who, until the

coming of Christ, were strangers to

the covenants. In the Lord’s great

generosity, the same wages, the same

blessings promised to the first-called,

the Israelites, will be paid to those

called last, the rest of the nations.

God’s ways, however, are far from

our ways, as we hear in today’s First

Reading. And today’s readings

should caution us against the

temptation to resent God’s lavish

mercy.

Like the Gentiles, many will be

allowed to enter the kingdom late—

after having spent most of their days

idling in sin. We should rejoice that

God has compassion on all whom He

has created. This should console us,

too, especially if we have loved ones

who remain far from the vineyard.

Our task is to continue laboring in

His vineyard. As Paul says in

today’s Epistle, let us conduct

ourselves worthily, struggling to

bring all men and women to the

praise of His name. Have a blessed

week.

Yours in Christ,

Fr. Vincent

Queridos hermanos y hermanas,

El Evangelio de este domingo cuenta la parábola de la

historia de la salvación. El dueño de la tierra es Dios. La

viña es Su reino. Los trabajadores contratados al amanecer

son los israelitas, a quienes Él ofreció su pacto primero.

Los contratados más tarde en el día son los gentiles, los no-

israelitas, quienes, hasta la venida de Cristo, eran extraños

a los pactos. En la gran generosidad del Señor, los mismos

salarios, las mismas bendiciones prometidas a los primeros

llamados, los israelitas, serán pagados a los llamados

últimos, el resto de las naciones. Los caminos de Dios, sin

embargo, están lejos de nuestros caminos, como oímos en

la Primera Lectura de hoy. Y las lecturas de hoy deben

advertirnos contra la tentación de resentir la misericordia

pródiga de Dios.

Al igual que los gentiles, a muchos se les permitirá

entrar en el reino tarde, después de haber pasado la mayor

parte de sus días en la perdición del pecado. Debemos

alegrarnos porque Dios tiene compasión por todos los que

Él ha creado. Esto también debería consolarnos,

especialmente si tenemos seres queridos que permanecen

lejos de la viña. Nuestra tarea es seguir trabajando en Su

viña. Como dice Pablo en la Epístola de hoy,

conduzcámonos dignamente, esforzándonos por llevar a

todos los hombres a la alabanza de Su nombre. Que pasen

una semana bendita.

De ustedes en Cristo,

Padre Vicente
