LITURGY CORNER
SAINT JOHN FISHER (1469-1535) AND SAINT THOMAS MORE (1477-1535) June 22 From Robert Bolt’s classic A Man for All Seasons to Showtime’s edgy The Tudors, Thomas More endears himself still: lawyer-statesman of impeccable integrity, remarried widower and affectionate father delighting in a lively household—four children, a pet monkey, even a paid jester! And challenges still: humanist-reformer, yet champion of Catholic faith and papal primacy. John Paul II named him Patron of Statesmen and Politicians, citing More’s generous work, both as a lawyer and in government service, on behalf of the poorest and most marginalized people of his time, as well as his promotion of education for all sectors of society. More’s decision for principle over politics, conscience over convenience prompted his final words: “I die the king’s good servant, but God’s first.” Alone among England’s bishops, John Fisher dared challenge Henry VIII’s divorce and repudiation of the papacy. When the Pope named the imprisoned Fisher a cardinal, Henry thundered: “Don’t bother sending Fisher’s red hat here; I’ll send Fisher’s head to Rome!” Whose “good servants” are we first? Isn’t a right conscience worth the pain of standing alone?
SAN LUIS GONZAGA (1568-1591) 21 de junio Luis Gonzaga nació en palacio y gozó de la vida cortesana. Desde los cinco años su padre le inició en la vida militar, esperando que además de heredar el trono, hiciera carrera política y militar. Pero su madre quería que fuera sacerdote. A los siete años tuvo una experiencia de Dios y ahí cambió su vida, pues se prometió a sí mismo que sería santo y comenzó a ayunar varias veces por semana. Posteriormente, a los 14 años renunció a su título nobiliario y a sus herencias, cediéndolas a su hermano. Mientras estudiaba filosofía en la Universidad de Alcalá de Henares leyó la vida de los misioneros jesuitas y decidió hacerse jesuita. Ingresó al noviciado jesuita a los 17 años, bajo la dirección de san Roberto Belarmino. Ahí, el padre superior, le pidió que redujera sus horas de oración y a lo extremado de sus penitencias. Por esos años una epidemia azotó Roma y él, sin pensarlo dos veces, se ofreció de voluntario en el hospital, donde se contagió de la enfermedad, encontrando la muerte a los 23 años.
ENTUSIASMO Y GRAMÁTICA Hay una buena razón para que los escritos de Pablo no se usen como modelos de gramática correcta hoy. La lectura de hoy nos ofrece un buen ejemplo de que para Pablo el mensaje tenía precedencia sobre la gra-mática. La primera oración es bastante larga y deja a los lectores sin aire; luego hay una serie de declaracio-nes que están hilvanadas sólo en la mente de Pablo. Pero, ¿qué importa? El fervor de Pablo es tan evidente que las palabras no le salen lo suficientemente rápidas para expresar sus ideas de manera ordenada. Los estudiosos de la Escritura regularmente interpretan su falta de sentido gramático como señal de la importancia de un pasaje en la Iglesia joven; como algo tan importante para ellos que el lenguaje que usaron nunca fue refinado. ¿Qué puede causar tal estado? ¿Contar la trama de una película de acción o describir jugada por jugada de un juego de fútbol? ¿Cuándo fue la última vez que estuvimos tan excitados por nuestra fe en Cristo que nos faltaba el aire al contarlo, o cometíamos errores gramaticales por hablar con tanto entusiasmo? ¡Puede que sea ejemplo de mala gramática, pero es una manera excelente de inspirar a otros con el mensaje de Cristo!
ENTHUSIASM AND GRAMMAR There is a good reason that the writings of St. Paul don’t show up as examples in grammar textbooks. Today’s reading is a case in point. It begins with one of those long Pauline run on sentences that leave lectors gasping for breath. So what? Take a closer look at how Paul’s fervor for his subject matter derails the grammar. There is something admirable about being so caught up in his convictions that the words cannot come fast enough to express them, much less in an orderly fashion. Scripture scholars usually take this grammatical ineptness as a sign of a passage’s early importance in the Christian community, something they were so ardent about that their language never got refined. What leaves us in this condition? Re-telling the plot line of an action movie or the play-by-play of a sporting event? When was the last time any of us was so excited by our faith in Christ that we were left grasping for words, stumbling over our own errors in speech? It may be bad grammar, but it is an excellent way to inspire others with the message of Christ!

St. Cyril of Alexandria was the Patriarch of Alexandria from 412 to 444. He was enthroned when the city was at the height of its influence and power within the Roman Empire. Cyril wrote extensively and was a leading protagonist in the Christological controversies of the late-4th and 5th centuries. He was a central figure in the Council of Ephesus in 431, which led to the deposition of Nestorius as Patriarch of Constantinople.
The Nativity of John the Baptist is a Christian feast day celebrating the birth of John the Baptist. The Nativity of John the Baptist is a high-ranking liturgical feast, kept in the Roman Catholic, Anglican and Lutheran churches. The sole biblical account of the birth of John the Baptist comes from the Gospel of Luke.

Duodécimo Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario 21 de junio de 2020 Canten y alaben al Señor, porque él ha salvado la vida del pobre. — Jeremías 20:13
St. Paulinus of Nola, born Pontius Meropius Anicius Paulinus, was a Roman poet, writer, and senator who attained the ranks of suffect consul and governor of Campania but—following the assassination of the emperor Gratian and under the influence of his Spanish wife Therasia of Nola — abandoned his career, was baptized as a Christian, and probably after Therasia's death became bishop of Nola in Campania. While there, he wrote poems in honor of his predecessor St Felix and corresponded with other Christian leaders throughout the empire. He is traditionally credited with the introduction of bells to Christian worship and helped resolve the disputed election of Pope Boniface I.
WHAT WE LOVE We cannot help conforming ourselves to what we love. —St. Francis de Sales
FATHERHOOD When a father gives to his son, both laugh; when a son gives to his father, both cry. —William Shakespeare

In Catholic countries of Europe, it has been cel-ebrated on March 19 as Saint Joseph's Day since the Middle Ages. In America, Father's Day was founded by Sonora Smart Dodd, and celebrated on the third Sunday of June for the first time in 1910,

FROM THE ARCHDIOCESE Reopening our church for public worship must include every precaution to eliminate a second wave of infection; consequently, the Archdiocese has established the following guidelines to protect you as well as our fellow parishioners. Safest Practices for Attending Mass Those feeling unwell or believe they may have been exposed to someone with COVID-19 should not attend Mass. One should not attend Mass if he or she is experiencing any symptoms of illness, especially the following: • A temperature above 100.4 F • Cough or sore throat • Shortness of breath • Recent loss of smell or taste
Chills, muscle aches, or gastrointestinal upset
If attending Mass, one must adhere to the following: All parishioners must wear a mask. Maintain six feet of social distance from others who are not from the same household at all times while in
the church or on church property. Refrain from physical contact such as holding hands during the Our Father. Choirs and singing will be held to a minimum.
Safest Practices for Receiving Communion Newly available evidence shows that virus spreads quickly through oral secretions; therefore, communion is most safely received as follows:
Communion will be received in the hand. Both the priest and the communicant will be wearing masks.
The priest and communicant will sanitize hands prior to distributing/receiving communion. Communion lines will be avoided – wait for the usher to dismiss each row individually and communion will be distributed as you exit the Church.
