REFLECTIONS / REFLECCIONES

Una Lección Inesperada La parábola de Jesús describe a los trabajadores que "marcan el reloj" en varios momentos durante el largo día: amanecer, nueve, mediodía, tres y cinco en punto. Independientemente de cuándo comenzaron a trabajar en la viña, todos los trabajadores reciben la misma rec‐ompensa. La recompensa parece generosa para los recién llegados, por supuesto, y sorprendentemente in‐justa para los trabajadores fieles desde hace mucho tiempo. Sin embargo, el terrateniente tranquiliza a sus trabajadores más obedientes, deleitándose con ellos co‐mo amigos y transformando su amargo enfrentamiento en una reflexión sobre la generosidad. Los trabajadores que llegaban a las cinco en punto podían haber llegado tarde al trabajo, pero los que empezaron al amanecer fueron los últimos en comprender la extravagante gen‐erosidad del terrateniente. Vista de esta manera, la pa‐rábola analiza no solo la generosidad de Dios hacia los creyentes "indignos", sino también la inagotable pacien‐cia del Señor hacia aquellos que pensaban que no tenían nada más que aprender. Empezando de Nuevo Las lecturas de hoy brindan un dulce refrigerio a todos los que conocemos la amargura del desánimo. No im‐porta cuán obstinadamente decidamos mejorarnos a nosotros mismos, la condición humana a menudo nos deja en charcos de fracaso y arrepentimiento. Jesús tiene un nuevo plan para nosotros. La parábola del Evangelio de hoy demuestra la misericordia de Dios, misericordia que se regocija en los nuevos comienzos. Nos consuela saber que Dios nos acompaña en nuestras labores, y tra‐baja para nosotros, ya sea que luchemos por cuidar nuestro cuerpo, esforzarnos por tener paciencia, evitar los chismes, hacer tiempo para la oración, ser generosos, superar la adicción, permanecer en recuperación o sim‐plemente atendiendo nuestro trabajo diario. Jesús nos muestra que se involucra activamente con nosotros cada vez que nos quedamos cortos. Desde el amanecer hasta el anochecer, el Señor nos busca y nos llama a unirnos a él en la viña. Ahora, hoy, en este mismo momento, es nuestro amanecer. O nuestras nueve en punto. ¿O al mediodía? ¡Ignora el reloj! Jesús nos invita a olvidar los fracasos del pasado; la misericordia divina los borra. El salmo de hoy insiste en que "el Señor está cerca de todos los que lo invocan". Entonces, con esperanza, comen‐zamos de nuevo. Tom Schmidt, Copyright (c) J. S. Paluch Co.

An Unexpected Lesson Jesus’ parable depicts workers who “punch the clock” at various times throughout the long day: dawn, nine, noon, three, and five o’clock. Regard‐less of when they began working in the vineyard, the laborers all receive the same reward. The re‐ward seems lavish to the latecomers, of course, and shockingly unfair to the long‐faithful workers. The landowner soothes his most dutiful laborers, how‐ever, delighting in them as friends and transform‐ing their bitter confrontation into a reflection on generosity. The laborers who arrived at five o’clock might have been late to the job, but those who be‐gan at the crack of dawn were last to understand the extravagant bounty of the landowner. Seen in this way, the parable discusses not only God’s gen‐erosity toward “unworthy” believers, but also the Lord’s inexhaustible patience toward those who thought they had nothing more to learn. Beginning Again Today’s readings provide sweet refreshment to all of us who know the bitterness of discouragement. No matter how stubbornly we determine to improve ourselves, the human condition often leaves us in puddles of failure and regret. Jesus has a new plan for us. Today’s Gospel parable demonstrates the mercy of God, mercy that rejoices in fresh begin‐nings. We take comfort in knowing that God ac‐companies us in our labors—and works for us—whether we struggle with caring for our bodies, striving for patience, avoiding gossip, making time for prayer, being generous, overcoming addiction, remaining in recovery, or simply attending to our daily work. Jesus shows us that he actively engages with us each time we fall short. From dawn to dusk, the Lord seeks us out, calling us to join him in the vineyard. Now, today, right this moment, is our dawn. Or our nine o’clock. Or noon? Ignore the clock! Jesus invites us to forget past failures; divine mercy wipes them away. Today’s psalm insists that the “Lord is near to all who call upon him.” In hope, then, we begin again.

YOUR CONTRIBUTION / SU CONTRIBUCION September 5th & September 6th

We are grateful for your consistent financial support each Sunday. Please remember us in prayer & offering even when you cannot be present.

Catechism Corner by Kacey Carey , DRE Those of us that came late to the faith are grateful for this week’s gospel. It is comforting to know, that even if we mess up our route to heaven, God's mercy can still save us in the end. Even though I was raised Catholic, attended parochial schools, I still drifted away from living a virtuous life. Like a lot of teenag-ers, I thought I was missing something if I did not at-tend a larger public school. There was something exciting, exotic, and adventuresome about meeting new friends, going to a huge school and joining a wide variety of social clubs. The familiar restrictive Catholic private school was small, everyone already knew everyone, and things did not change. The other side of the fence is always more appealing until we actually cross over and realize it is not. My wise moth-er knew I had to make my own mistakes, so let me enroll in the public high school. It turned out that my "friends" were into all the wrong things. My grades suffered and the snobbish social clubs were cliquish and disappointing. Religion was not included in the school day, so it was deemed less important. My val-ue system was realigned to think that popularity and looks were more prized than theological values. The freedom I sought turned out to be a form of bond-age. But thank goodness, God's mercy and for-giveness were always waiting to be "discovered". Even though I drifted away, He called me back. He redeemed me with the hope of grace and salvation. I came to Him late in life, but He still accepted me back along with those who never left. Like the people who came late to work in the fields, the Lord rewarded them equally. God wants us to choose Him freely, not because He forced us, but rather because we realize life is better with Him. Some of us may be distracted on our God quest, but He still waits patiently for us with arms wide open. "The good man is free, even if he is a slave. The evil man is a slave, even if he is a king." St. Augustine

Aquellos de nosotros que llegamos tarde a la fe esta-mos agradecidos por el evangelio de esta semana. Es reconfortante saber que incluso si estropeamos nuestro camino al cielo, la misericordia de Dios aún puede sal-varnos al final. Aunque fui criado como católico, asistí a escuelas parroquiales, todavía me alejé de vivir una vida virtuosa. Como muchos adolescentes, pensé que me estaba perdiendo algo si no asistía a una escuela pública más grande. Había algo emocionante, exótico y aventurero en conocer nuevos amigos, ir a una escuela enorme y unirse a una amplia variedad de clubes so-ciales. La familiar escuela privada católica restrictiva era pequeña, todos ya conocían a todos y las cosas no cambiaron. El otro lado de la cerca es siempre más atractivo hasta que realmente lo cruzamos y nos da-mos cuenta de que no lo es. Mi sabia madre sabía que tenía que cometer mis propios errores, así que déjame inscribirme en la escuela secundaria pública. Resultó que mis "amigos" estaban metidos en las cosas equi-vocadas. Mis calificaciones sufrieron y los clubes socia-les eran exclusivos y decepcionantes. La religión no se incluyó en la jornada escolar, por lo que se consideró menos importante. Mi sistema de valores se modificó para pensar que la popularidad y la apariencia eran más preciadas que los valores teológicos. La libertad que buscaba resultó ser una forma de esclavitud. Pero gracias a Dios, la misericordia y el perdón de Dios siempre estaban esperando ser "descubiertos". A pe-sar de que me alejé, Él me llamó. Me redimió con la esperanza de gracia y salvación. Vine a Él tarde en la vida, pero aun así me aceptó junto con aquellos que nunca se fueron. Como la gente que llegó tarde a tra-bajar en el campo, el Señor los recompensó por igual. Dios quiere que lo escojamos libremente, no porque Él nos obligó, sino porque nos damos cuenta de que la vida es mejor con Él. Algunos de nosotros podemos estar distraídos en nuestra búsqueda de Dios, pero Él todavía nos espera pacientemente con los brazos abiertos. "El hombre bueno es libre, incluso si es un esclavo. El hombre malo es un esclavo, incluso si es un rey". San Augustin
