Saint Joseph Parish
SIGUE REZANDO Santa Mónica, cuya fiesta celebramos en agosto,
se conoce generalmente como “la madre persistente”. Ella vio como su hijo mayor, Agustín, le daba la espalda a su fe cristiana.
Mónica estaba exasperada. Durante años se dio por vencida de hablar directamente a su hijo siguiendo el consejo de un obispo de la región que le dijo que era mejor hablar con Dios sobre Agustín que con Agustín sobre Dios.
La madre nunca dejó de rezar por su hijo. Finalmente, Agustín abandonó su rebeldía, fue bautizado y luego ordenado y nombrado obispo de Hipona. San Agustín se convirtió en uno de los eruditos más importantes de la Iglesia.
TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION Sometimes when bishops are consecrated, they
are not given the care of a diocese as an “ordinary.” A very old tradition, however, assures that they are invested with a “see,” a link with a local church. Many hundreds of places around the world were dioceses at one time, but are no longer. In England, for example, some of the historic dioceses such as London, Salisbury, and Manchester ceased to be Catholic at the Reformation and their cathedrals passed to the Church of England. The reestablishment of the Catholic Church in the nineteenth century meant that new dioceses had to be created, such as at Liverpool and Westminster. Similarly, in Scandinavia the ancient Catholic dioceses vanished under Lutheranism. In North Africa, tiny dioceses disappeared under the sands or were swept away by Islam.
In the United States, some original dioceses never really developed as population centers, such as the old dioceses of Bardstown, Vincennes, Sault Ste. Marie, or Walla Walla. The tradition of “titular sees” assures that the ancient churches are always held in prayer, as the bishop celebrates Mass in its memory a few times a year .
Keep Praying St. Monica, whose feast we celebrate in August,
is often known as “the persistent mother.” She watched her oldest son, Augustine, turn his back on his Christian faith.
Monica was exasperated. For years she gave up talking directly to her son on the advice of a local bishop, who told her that it was better to talk to God about Augustine then to Augustine about God.
The mother never gave up praying for her son. Eventually Augustine gave up his wild ways, was baptized, and later ordained and named bishop of Hippo. St. Augustine went on to become one of the Church’s greatest scholars.
TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE Por siglos, Latinoamérica ha desarrollado una
larga tradición religiosa con mitología espléndida. La palabra “religión” del verbo latín religere signifi-ca “atar” o “enlazar”. Su función es unir seres hu-manos, los unos con los otros, con lazos de caridad y justicia. Una vez enlazados en comunidad, la reli-gión los une al poder divino que rige el universo.
Entre las culturas andinas se encuentran mitos religiosos que muestran la importancia de este enla-zamiento. Según la mitología Inca el universo esta compuesto por tres mundos: el cielo (Janan pacha), la tierra (Cay pacha) y el bajo tierra (Ucu pacha). Estos tres mundos están unidos por dos grandes ser-pientes, Yacú-mama (ríos) y Sacha-mama (árboles), símbolos de la fecundidad.
Muchos piensan que los mitos son leyendas cuya función es el entretenimiento. En realidad los mitos no son fábulas, son historias que explican la verdad profunda del universo. Nos muestran como unirnos y enlazarnos para vivir una vida fecunda. En esta época de secularización, los cristianos no podemos olvidar ni la religión ni la mitología si queremos dar fruto como Jesús nos lo pide.

Jubilee Year of Mercy July 24, 2016
Seventeenth Sunday in Ordinary Time World Youth Day in Krakow: “Blessed are the
merciful, for they will be shown mercy” This week, the universal Church focuses in prayerful solidarity on World Youth Day in Krakow, where WYD’s founder, Saint John Paul II, served as archbishop. Its theme coincides with that of Pope Francis’ Jubilee Year of Mercy: “Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy” (Matthew 5:7). Today’s Gospel echoes the same theme, as Jesus unites prayer with mercy in “The parable of the persistent friend.” Jesus teaches us not only what words to pray, but what deeds must match authentic prayer. How beautifully down-to-earth is Jesus’ portrait of a God who can be trusted to do what is best for us. A pesky neighbor disturbs a sleeping friend and disrupts the household. Yet beautiful images unfold.
Año Jubilar de la Misericordia 24 de julio de 2016
Decimoséptimo Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario Jornada Mundial de la Juventud Cracovia,
“Bienaventurados los misericordiosos, porque ellos alcanzarán misericordia” Esta semana la Iglesia universal se encamina solidariamente en oración hacia la Jornada Mundial de la Juventud a realizarse en Cracovia, la ciudad donde fue arzobispo san Juan Pablo II el fundador de este evento mundial para jóvenes. El tema de este año de la Jornada Mundial de la Juventud coincide con el del Año Jubilar de la Misericordia: “Bienaventurados los misericordiosos, porque ellos alcanzarán misericordia” (Mateo 5:7). El Evangelio de hoy hace eco al mismo tema, como Jesús une la oración con la misericordia en “la parábola del Amigo Persistente”. Jesús nos enseña además de las palabras para orar, aquellas acciones que deben coincidir con una autentica oración. Que hermosa es la imagen que Jesús presenta de Dios en quien se puede confiar hacer aquello que es lo mejor para nosotros. Un vecino inoportuno que va a despertar a su amigo e irrumpe en su casa. Aún así surgen bellas imágenes. La oración perseverante tiene una respuesta activa, recibe misericordia en panes; recordando de Lucas la única referencia a la Eucaristía “al partir el pan” (Lucas 24:35, Hechos 2:42). La JMJ16 Cracovia, el Jubileo, y Jesús de este modo se unen para definir la perfecta oración como una comunión perseverante con Dios y la misericordia incondicional hacia nuestro prójimo.
