From the Desk of Father Jonathan
Wasn't that extra hour of sleep from Daylight Savings Time great?! Whenever we get an especially good night of sleep, everything else seems a bit brighter, lighter, and happier. The affect is not only health for the body, but also for the soul. I notice that my prayer becomes simpler, deeper, and it has greater impact on my daily activity when I get a good sleep. Why is this so? Well, there is an ancient spiritual principle that St. Thomas Aquinas put like this: "grace builds on nature". In other words, the journey of our journey toward God (sanctification) is linked to our own humanity. If we have healthy bodies and minds we are in a better state to be transformed by the grace of God. When we take care of our physical, mental, and emotional being, we are cooperating with God's plan for us to become holy. Maybe this week is a good time for us to make decisions about our health. Maybe we need to stop smoking or staying up so late, or maybe we need to eat better or start an exercise routine (that one is for me!). We have new motivation: good health is not only good for your body....it's good for your soul!
God bless,
Father Jonathan

REFLECTING ON GOD’S WORD Sunday Gospel: Luke 20, 27-38
Charles Plumb, a Navy pilot in Vietnam, flew seventy-five combat missions before his plane was shot down. Plumb parachuted to safety. After his return home, a man came up to Plumb exclaiming, “You’re the pilot in Vietnam. You were shot down!” “How in the world did you know that?” asked Plumb. “I packed your parachute,” the man replied, “I guess it worked!” “It sure did,” Plumb assured him gratefully, thinking, “How many times did I just pass him by, because I was a fighter pilot and he was only a sailor?” Plumb considered the countless hours the man had spent carefully folding each parachute, holding in his hands the fate of every pilot.
Everyone has someone who provides for them a daily physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual parachute. Remember to say hello, please, or thank you, to congratulate them, give a compliment, or just do something good in return.
RIFLESSIONE SULLA PAROLA DI DIO Vangelo della Domenica: Luca 20, 27-38
Dopo i farisei e gli scribi appaiono nuovi avversari di Gesù: i sadducei. Essi negavano la risurrezione come pura chimera umana e hanno adottato contro Gesù una diversa strategia di lotta. I sadducei temevano che l’affluenza delle folle verso Gesù potesse trasformarsi in agitazione politica che i Romani avrebbero soffocato brutalmente. Perciò miravano a limitare l’influenza di Gesù sulla vita pubblica. A questo scopo, hanno raccontato una storia di loro invenzione sui sette fratelli e la moglie del maggiore fra loro, ripromettendosi così di mettere in ridicolo Gesù e la credenza nella risurrezione. In realtà, la derisione si è rivolta contro gli avversari di Gesù. Egli dimostra infatti che il mondo futuro non è il prolungamento di questo, afferma che la morte sarà vinta e che coloro che risusciteranno avranno parte alla vita di Dio e non saranno più sottomessi alle leggi biologiche di questo mondo. Nel seguito del discorso, fondandosi sull’ Esodo (Es 3,6), libro che i sadducei consideravano sacro, Gesù presenta un argomento biblico sulla vita eterna: “Dio non è Dio dei morti”, e lo sarebbe se Abramo, Isacco e Giacobbe non vivessero più. Ma essi vivono e rendono gloria a Dio. Ciò significa anche che solo chi vive per Dio, vive davvero. Dio invita tutti gli uomini alla sua casa paterna, perché desidera che noi tutti beneficiamo con lui della pienezza della vita nell’immortalità.

As you go through this week, this month, this year, recognize and thank all those who “pack your parachute,” whether family, friends, neighbors, co-workers, or strangers.

REFLEXIONEMOS LA PALABRA DE DIOS Evangelio del Domingo: Lucas 20, 27-38
Charles Plumb, piloto de la Marina de Guerra durante la guerra en Vietnam, voló setenta y cinco veces en misiones de combate antes de que su avión fuera de-rribado. Plumb logró lanzarse con éxito en su paracaídas. Después del regreso a su patria, un hombre se acercó a Plumb y exclamó: “Usted es el piloto que voló en Vietnam. ¡Su avión fue derribado!” Perplejo, Plumb le preguntó: “¿Cómo es posible que usted sepa eso?” El hombre le replicó: “Yo fui el que empacó su paracaídas. ¡Me imagino que funcionó correctamente!” “Claro que funcionó o yo no estuviera aquí”, le contestó Plumb. Y para sí se preguntó: “¿Cuántas veces le habré pasado por el lado sin ponerle atención porque yo era un aviador y él un simple marinero?” Plumb se imaginó las horas interminables que este hombre se habría pasado doblando y empacando cuidadosamente cada paracaídas teniendo en sus manos el destino de cada piloto.
Todos tenemos a alguien en el acontecer diario, que nos proporciona un paracaídas físico, mental, emocional o espiritual. Por favor, recuerda saludarlos, darles las gracias, felicitarlos, halagarlos o evol-verles con algo bueno.
Viviendo la Palabra de Dios
En el transcurso de las semanas de este mes y de este año, reconoce y dale las gracias a todos los que “empacan tu paracaídas”, ya sean familiares, amigos, vecinos, compañeros de trabajo o extraños.
