Ember Days, called "The Four Times" in Latin, are ancient liturgical commem- orations of the changing of the seasons. They are penitential days, in which the Christian does extra penance like fasting and abstaining from meat. On the Ember Days, we are invited to enter more deeply into the mystery of Jesus's Cross (September 14), following beautifully the example of Our Lady of Sorrows (September 15) and St. Francis of Assisi in his Stigmata (September 17). Ember Days are a wonderful synecdoche of the Church's nuanced relationship to creation. On the one hand, these celebrations affirm deeply the goodness of creation. The presence of these celebrations of the changing seasons in the Roman Liturgy from ancient times witnesses to the deep connection of the Christian soul to the cosmos and the marvels of nature. Together with the direction of liturgical prayer "ad orientem," facing the rising sun, the Church's Ember Days tell us that nature is good and is part of our connection to God's Uncreated Goodness. These practices of our worship teach us that Jesus is Lord of all creation. On the other hand, it is profoundly noteworthy that these celebrations of the seasons are days of penance. With this traditional discipline, the Church confesses to Almighty God that man so often misuses nature and mistakes the limited goodness of creation for the Limitless Goodness of the Creator. Thus, far from the gluttonous harvest festivals favored by the world, the Church uses the changing of the seasons as opportunities to give thanks to God for His gifts by abstaining from them. The Church speaks in her fasting and abstinence the full truth about nature: that creation is good and that the Creator is infinitely better. This is the wisdom of the Cross, with which Jesus's Bride, filled with joy, has placed over the whole of creation. The penitential character of the Ember Days teaches us to reject the false gospels of nature and creation in the world today and to accept the Gospel of the Cross, the truth of Reality as it is. Our discovery of Reality in the Sacred Liturgy reveals to our souls the truth that God's Goodness is everything, that crea- tion's goodness is its echo, and that fallen man has to deny himself of the latter to be free to love the former. Ember Days are intense. They keep us humble and grounded and connected to nature. They teach us to beware, lest we forget God amidst the goodness of the cre- ated world. In this penitential time, we pray especially in our tradition for priests, who were often ordained in times past on Ember Days. May our joy in divine worship, for which priests are ordained, always teach us to love everything in the Creator and the Creator in every- thing, denying ourselves and dying with Him, so that we may find our true selves in the infinite Beauty of the Beatific Vision.

Joseph Previtali Confessions Schedule Monday (Lunes) 6:00- 7:00 pm 8:45- 9:30 pm Tuesday (Martes) 7:00- 7:45 am Wednesday (Miercoles) 7:00– 7:50am Thursday (Jueves) 7:00– 7:50 am 5:30- 6:30 pm Friday (Viernes) 6:00- 7:00 pm 9:00- 10:00 pm Saturday (Sábado) 4:00- 5:00 pm

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, On Wednesday, Friday and Saturday of this week the Church commemorates the "Ember Days" of autumn, which are held traditionally each year after the feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross. Ember Days, called "The Four Times" in Latin, are ancient liturgical commem-orations of the changing of the seasons.

Pray for Our Parishioners Who are Sick

Queridos hermanos y hermanas en Cristo, El Miércoles, Viernes y Sábado de esta semana, la Iglesia conmemora las "témporas" de otoño, que se celebran tradicionalmente cada año después de la fiesta de la Exaltación de la Santa Cruz. Témporas, lla-mamos a "Los cuatro tiempos" en latín, son antiguas conmemoracio-nes litúrgicas del cambio de las estaciones. Son días de penitencia, en la cual el cristiano hace penitencia extra, como el ayuno y la abstinencia de carne. En las Témporas, se nos invita a entrar más profundamente en el misterio de la Cruz de Jesús (14 de septiembre), siguiendo el bello ejemplo de la Virgen de los Dolores (15 de septiembre) y San Francis-co de Asís en sus estigmas (17 de septiembre). Témporas son una maravillosa relación de sinécdoque matizado de la Iglesia a la creación. Por un lado, estas celebraciones afirman profundamente la bondad de la creación. La presencia de estas celebraciones de las estaciones cam-biantes en la Liturgia Romana desde la antigüedad son testigos de la profunda conexión del alma cristiana con el cosmos y las maravillas de la naturaleza. Junto con la dirección de la oración litúrgica "ad orien-tem," cara al sol naciente, témporas de la Iglesia nos dicen que la natu-raleza es buena y es parte de nuestra conexión con la Bondad increada de Dios. Estas prácticas de nuestra adoración nos enseñan que Jesús es el Señor de toda la creación. Por otro lado, es profundamente necesa-rio destacar que estas celebraciones de las estaciones del año son días de penitencia. Con esta disciplina tradicional, la Iglesia confiesa a Dios Todopoderoso que el hombre tan a menudo hace mal uso de la natura-leza y comete errores de la bondad de la creación limitada por la bon-dad sin límites del Creador. Por lo tanto, lejos de los festivales de la cosechas glotonas favorecidos por el mundo, la Iglesia utiliza el cambio de las estaciones como oportunidades para dar gracias a Dios por sus dones al abstenerse de ellos. La Iglesia habla en su ayuno y la abstinen-cia toda la verdad sobre la naturaleza: que la creación es buena y que el Creador es infinitamente mejor. Esta es la sabiduría de la Cruz, la novia de Jesús, que lleno de alegría, ha puesto sobre toda la creación. El carácter penitencial de las témporas nos enseña a rechazar los falsos evangelios de la naturaleza y la creación en el mundo de hoy y aceptar el Evangelio de la Cruz, la verdadera realidad tal como es. Nuestro descubrimiento de la Realidad en la Sagrada Liturgia revela a nuestras almas la verdad que la bondad de Dios es todo, que la bondad de la creación es su eco, y que el hombre caído tiende a negarse a sí mismo de este último para ser libre para amar al primero. Témporas son inten-sas. Nos mantienen humildes y conectados a tierra a la naturaleza. Ellos nos enseñan a tener cuidado, para que no olvidemos a Dios en medio de la bondad del mundo creado. En este tiempo penitencial, oramos especialmente en nuestra tradición de sacerdotes, que a menu-do fueron ordenados en tiempos pasados en Témporas. Que nuestra alegría en el culto divino, en los cuales los ordenados sacerdotes, siem-pre nos enseñan a amar todo en el Creador y el Creador de todo, ne-gándonos a nosotros mismos y moriros con Él, para que podamos encontrar nuestro verdadero yo en el infinito de la Belleza de la Visión Beatifica. Oren por mi, Padre José Previtali

WEDDINGS/ BODAS Couples planning to be married must contact a priest well in advance of the wedding date. They must also receive personal preparation for enter-ing marriage. If either party has previously gone through any form of civil or religious marriage with another person, the priest is not permitted to set a date for the wedding until the Archbishop’s office has been consulted. It should be noted that Catholics, in order to marry validly, must marry before the parish priest or his delegate and two witnesses. A civil marriage or a marriage be-fore a non-Catholic minister is not a valid marriage. Couples in such “marriages” should contact a priest to have the situation rectified. Parejas que estén planeando casarse necesitan ponerse en con-tacto con un sacerdote antes de planear el día de la boda. Ellos también necesitan recibir preparación personal durante su matri-monio. Si cualquier persona de la pareja a estado casado ante-riormente con otra persona el Sacerdote no puede poner la fecha hasta que la oficina de la Arquidiócesis lo apruebe. Tienen que tener en cuenta que los Católicos en orden para que el matrimo-nio sea valido, necesitan casarse el frente a el Sacerdote de su Parroquia y dos testigos. Un matrimonio civil ante una persona que no es Católica no es valido para la Iglesia Católica. Parejas que estén en esta situación deben contactar a un Sacerdote para que arregle su situación.
