From Carmen Cayon-
Thank you to everyone who helped our transition this year with Faith Formation for adults and youth!
We couldn’t have served our community without the time, talent, and generosity that I experienced here in our community. As my first year as Director of Faith Formation and Evangelization has drawn to an end, I look forward to getting to know our diverse community better and working closer with those who choose to help out next year.
I am so full of gratitude for our clergy, our Faith Formation team, Philomena and Brian, our many volunteer catechists, our parish staff and our parish service organizations, and your prayers for us: all were a vital part of the successful year we had. May God continue to be with us next year! Gracias a todos que nos ayudaron este año con la Formación de Fe de adultos y de jóvenes en nuestra parroquia. No hubiéramos podido hacer lo que logramos sin el tiempo, el talento, y la generosidad que yo experimente en nuestra comunidad. Mi primer año como Directora de Formación de Fe y Evangelización se acaba, pero estoy contenta pensando en como puedo seguir conociendo mejor al comunidad tan diversa en el próximo año, especialmente los que deciden ayudarnos. Estoy llena de gratitud por la ayuda de nuestros sacerdotes y diáconos, nuestro equipo de Formación de Fe, Filomena y Brian, nuestros catequistas que contribuyen de su tiempo tan generosamente, la ayuda de la oficina parroquial, las organizaciones parroquial de servicio y sus oraciones; todos fueron una parte muy importante del éxito que tuvimos este año. Que Dios nos siga guiando!

GOD’S WORDS Each day we are bombarded with thousands of words. From the moment our clock radios click on in the morning, until the last moment of the day when the television is turned off or someone bids us “good-night,” our life is filled with words. Some words that we hear bring news that leaves us feeling low. Some words lift our spirits. Many of the words we hear are trying to get us to buy something. Some words are hurtful. Today the Church focuses our attention on hearing the word of God. Are God’s words just more of the same—part of the endless stream of words that flow into our ears each day? The challenge today is to allow God’s word to inspire us in new ways so that our outlook and attitudes align themselves more closely
You have crowned the year with your bounty, and your paths overflow with a rich harvest.
— Psalm 65:12

Un pensamiento: "Si no te entregas a Dios, nunca tendrás firmeza." (Is 7, 9).
Nuestra Cultura
P ara nosotros la palabra—dada o recibida—es muy importante. Por ser de culturas predominantemente orales,
lo que se dice y lo que se escucha tiene una enorme fuerza, incluso a veces más que la firma en un papel.
Reflexiones para la homilía A palabras necias, oídos sordos, dice el refrán español. Es decir, hay palabras que optamos por no escuchar, por ignorar. A veces podemos optar por no escuchar, pero así y todo, las palabras tienen su efecto: pueden herir, pueden curar, pueden deshacer una relación o reconstruirla. La palabra es muy poderosa.
Pero hay algo más que escuchar para que la palabra tenga efecto. Hace falta una tierra que la reciba.
No se puede negar que tenemos buena voluntad. Amamos a Dios y quisiéramos hacer las cosas bien, según su agrado. Pero muchas veces hay demasiado ruido a su alrededor: queremos tener cosas, y las cosas, además de ocupar espacio, nos hacen ruido en la cabeza y en el corazón: cómo vamos hacer para comprar lo que queremos, qué marca será mejor, o cual es la que tienen los vecinos, cómo lo vamos a pagar, qué alegría le vamos a dar a nuestros hijos, o qué envidia les vamos a dar a otros...Esos ruidos nos impiden escuchar la palabra de Dios que se dirige a nosotros cada día.
Otras veces escuchamos y parece que vamos a hacer algo con lo que escuchamos. Pero quizás andemos en relaciones enredadas, o en adiciones a juego, a sustancias, o incluso al trabajo. Y entonces, no nos queda el tiempo que sería necesario para llevar a cabo eso que vimos tan claro que tendríamos que hacer, y que podría ser tan sencillo como procurar ir a Misa todos los domingos. O implicarse en una acción por la justicia. O ir a visitar a una persona anciana o sola.
Lo que es verdad es que la Palabra no se regresa vacía. O da frutos en nosotros, o regresa a Dios con la sordera o la negativa. Si queremos presentarle a Dios oídos sordos, según el refrán estaríamos diciendo que la Palabra es necia. Eso es muy duro. La Palabra de Dios es el propio Jesús y sólo habla de Dios Padre. Sólo habla de Dios y Dios es amor. Optar por no escuchar es una necedad por nuestra parte. Las cosas que hacen ruido simplemente hacen eso: ruido. Pero no nos cambian la vida, no nos cambian nuestras capacidades o cualidades; no nos ayudan en nuestras relaciones, porque se acaban luego. La Palabra que cae en la buena tierra de nuestro corazón, sin embargo, nos transforma en fruto del propio Cristo. ¿Cómo luciría eso? Un fruto de Cristo es una persona paciente, amable, entregada y generosa que piensa en el otro antes de sí misma. Un fruto de Cristo es la persona que ofrece a los demás un espacio de paz, de serenidad y de amor. Un fruto de Cristo es la persona que se entrega al servicio de otros, que cumple en su vida las obras de misericordia corporales o espirituales por las que reconoce la presencia de Cristo en este mundo.
Para la reflexión ¿Qué tipo de tierra soy? ¿Cuándo he escuchado la Palabra muy en el hondo de mi corazón, ¿como he reaccionado? ¿Cuáles han sido los frutos que he podido dar?
