~ REFLECTION ~ The days are growing shorter and the weath-er is getting cooler. Soon it will be time for the harvest. As disciples of the Lord, we are called to assist in a special harvest. We hear Paul call Timothy today to “pursue righteous-ness, devotion, faith, love, patience, and gentleness.” Wise words for us as well. As we celebrate the Eucharist today, let us pur-sue these virtues so that what we harvest will be good and holy.

~ REFLEXION ~

Los días se vuelven más cortos y la tempera-tura se vuelve más fría. Pronto vendrá el tiempo de la cosecha. Como discípulos que somos del Señor estamos llamados a asistir en una cosecha especial. Escuchamos hoy a Pablo exhortar a Timoteo para que lleve “una vida de rectitud, piedad, fe, amor, paciencia y mansedumbre”; palabras sabias también para nosotros. Con la celebración de la Eu-caristía hoy tratemos de conseguir estas vir-tudes a fin de que nuestra cosecha sea buena y santa.

Did You Know? What constitutes a concern worth reporting? Parents have a responsi-bility to report concerns they have about another person’s behaviors or actions that could put their children — or any children — at risk. These concerns are anything that makes the parent uneasy or uncomfortable, or anything that a child reports made them feel uneasy or uncomfortable. Some examples of seemingly little things that can be worth reporting

include: A teacher covering her glass classroom door with art-work, eliminating the ability to see into the classroom from the hall; a youth ministry icebreaker activity, where teens have to pass a mint candy from person to person using only toothpicks in their mouth, despite the discomfort of some participants

Sabia Usted? ¿Qué constituye una preocupación que vale la pena reportar? Los padres de familia tienen la re-sponsabilidad de reportar las inquietudes que tengan sobre los comportamientos o las acciones de otra persona que pudieran poner en riesgo a sus hijos, o a cualquier niño. Estas inquie-tudes son cualquier cosa que haga que el padre o la madre se sienta incómodo/a, o cualquier cosa que el/la niño/a reporte que le haga sentir incómodo/a. Algunos ejemplos de cosas aparentemente pequeñas que pueden valer la pena informar incluyen: Una maestra que cubre la puerta de vidrio de su aula con obras de arte, eliminar la posibilidad de ver hacia adentro del aula desde el pasillo. Además, una actividad para romper el hielo en el ministerio juvenil, donde los adolescentes deben pasar un caramelo de menta de persona a persona usando solo palillos de dientes en la boca, a pesar de la inco-modidad de algunos participantes.
