Henry A. Tutuwan (980)616-6676 [email protected]Lectura, as de Hoy Eclesiástico 3:3-7, 14-17 Salmo 127:1-2, 3, 4-5 Colosenses 3:12-21 Mateo 2:13-15, 19-23 Jesus is born into a specific family. His experiences within that family helped him mature and grow in his knowledge and intimacy of God and God’s love. In the family, all human beings first meet with ac- ceptance, nurture, education, and we hope a knowledge of God. Today the family seems to be fall- ing apart in our country. Yet without a nurturing environment for children, it is impossible for them to grow up into healthy adults. How can we encourage and foster family life within our parish and commu- nity? Do we offer help to families in trouble either financially or emotionally? Is marriage enrichment a central part of our parish life, and do we invite the larger community of married people to join us in such workshops? How can we help link families to one another? Families with newborns go through certain common crises and challenges. They often come to us for baptism. How might our community offer them continued community and support as they begin to raise their children? The same is true for parents of teenagers—a very difficult rite of passage both for the teens and their families. How can our parish community resources and a supportive com- munity and environment enable teens to pass through these exciting and difficult years? And how can we help the parents of teenagers share their ex- periences, their struggles, and their successes with one another? What can our church actually do to help families? We can start by asking our own fami- ly members what they seek and need for their strength and growth. Jesús nace en una familia específica. Sus experiencias dentro de esa familia lo ayudaron a madurar y crecer en su conocimiento e intimidad de Dios y el amor de Dios. En la familia, todos los seres humanos se encuen- tran primero con aceptación, educación, educación, y esperamos un conocimiento de Dios. Hoy la familia parece estar desmoronándose en nuestro país. Sin em- bargo, sin un entorno propicio para los niños, es im- posible que crezcan y se conviertan en adultos sanos. ¿Cómo podemos alentar y fomentar la vida familiar dentro de nuestra parroquia y comunidad? ¿Ofrecemos ayuda a familias en problemas, ya sea financiera o emocionalmente? ¿Es el enriquecimiento matrimonial una parte central de nuestra vida parroquial, ¿e invita- mos a la comunidad más grande de personas casadas a unirse a nosotros en tales talleres? ¿Cómo podemos ayudar a vincular a las familias entre sí? Las familias con recién nacidos pasan por ciertas crisis y desafíos comunes. A menudo vienen a nosotros para el bautis- mo. ¿Cómo podría nuestra comunidad ofrecerles co- munidad y apoyo continuos a medida que comienzan a criar a sus hijos? Lo mismo es cierto para los padres de adolescentes, un rito de iniciación muy difícil tanto pa- ra los adolescentes como para sus familias. ¿Cómo pueden los recursos de nuestra comunidad parroquial y una comunidad y entorno de apoyo permitir a los ado- lescentes pasar estos años emocionantes y difíciles? ¿Y cómo podemos ayudar a los padres de adolescentes a compartir sus experiencias, sus luchas, y sus éxitos el uno con el otro? ¿Qué puede hacer realmente nuestra iglesia para ayudar a las familias? Podemos comenzar preguntando a nuestros propios familiares qué buscan y necesitan para su fortaleza y crecimiento. The Holy Family
