LETTER FROM OUR PASTOR

Dear Parishioners, Today’s readings invite us to consider what “retirement plan” should be our priority in life: whatever gets us to Heaven.

In today’s 1st Reading Ecclesiastes, who is doing an extended philosophical reflection on what things are truly worthwhile in life, laments the emptiness of working for something that you cannot take with you when you are gone. Our endeavors are profitable, but upon death, those profits may be given in inheritance to those who had nothing to do with them, who will eventually lose them too. Ecclesiastes wisely asks what is the point of striving for a profit that ends with our earthly life? We all catch ourselves from time to time worrying about things that are ultimately fleeting and secondary. What’s the point about worrying about these things? In today’s 2

nd Reading St. Paul teaches

us what is truly worth worrying about: our heavenly inheritance. What we treasure impacts the focus of our concern and attention. St. Paul puts us on guard against fleeting treasures: putting other things in place of God, seeking pleasure at any cost, sowing division, etc. Through Baptism we’ve received the pledge of an eternal reward. The first payment has already been advanced to us: the Holy Spirit. Our lives, like a treasure, are now buried, safe and sound, in Christ. We always retain the option of digging up that treasure and squandering it for something earthly, but we’d be fools if we did.

Our Lord in today’s Gospel, is teaching us to not rely on earthly, vain things. We don’t even know how many years we’ll have to enjoy them. Our Lord today almost answers Ecclesiastes’ question as to the point of striving for vain things, and St. Paul learned the lesson. What is genuinely profitable for us and others is what the Lord considers treasure. He created all things and knows the worthwhile way to invest them. The rich retiree in today’s parable did not use the goods the Lord had put into his path to accumulate true and lasting wealth in Heaven. He decided to accumulate his wealth and live off his earnings. We’ve all heard of early retirements. The flaw in his logic was thinking he’d have time. Ecclesiastes’ question tragically played out as the wealthy man’s riches are taken away from him in death, leaving them for someone else, and leaving him with nothing. The wealth that Our Lord offers us is non-transferable and never expires. Holiness and virtue are the investments that win us lasting wealth.

May God bless you.

Fr. Dan

P.S. August 4, 1994 was my 1st

day at St. Jerome. I distinctly remember wondering what the 1

st year would

be like. Msgr.Bill Pickard came to the old church to install me as the new pastor. O where did the time go? I have now spent half of my priesthood here at St. Jerome and I just realized that. Thanks for all your prayers.

EIGHTEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME SUNDAY, AUGUST 4, 2019 DECIMOCTAVA DOMINGO DEL TIEMPO ORDINARIO DOMINGO 4 DE AGOSTO DEL 2019

CARTA DE NUESTRO PÁRROCO

Queridos Parroquianos,

Las lecturas de hoy nos invitan a considerar que "plan

de jubilación" debe ser nuestra prioridad en la vida: lo

que nos lleve al cielo.

En la 1ª lectura de Eclesiastés de hoy, lo que está

haciendo es una extendida reflexión filosófica sobre

las cosas qué realmente valen la pena en la vida, se

lamenta el vacío del trabajo por algo que usted no

puede tomar con usted cuando usted se vaya. Nuestros

esfuerzos son pasajeros, cuando morimos, nuestros

beneficios se pueden dar en herencia a aquellos que no

tenían nada que ver con ellos, y que finalmente los

perderán también. ¿Eclesiastés sabiamente pregunta

cuál es el punto de luchar por un beneficio que

termina con nuestra vida terrenal? Todos nosotros

vivimos preocupados por cosas que son en última

instancia fugaces y secundarias. ¿Cuál es el punto de

preocuparse por estas cosas? En la 2 º lectura San

Pablo nos enseña por lo que realmente vale la pena

preocuparse: nuestra herencia celestial. Lo que

atesoramos impacta el foco de nuestra atención y

preocupación. San Pablo nos pone en guardia contra

tesoros efímeros: cuando ponemos otras cosas en

lugar de Dios, como búsqueda de placer a cualquier

costo, sembrando división, etcétera. Por el bautismo

hemos recibido la promesa de una recompensa eterna.

El primer pago ya lo hemos recibido: el Espíritu

Santo. En nuestras vidas, como un tesoro, enterrado,

sano y salvo en Cristo. Siempre nos reservamos la

posibilidad de desenterrar ese tesoro y derrocharlo en

algo terrenal, pero seríamos tontos si lo hiciéramos.

Nuestro Señor en el Evangelio de hoy nos está

enseñando a no confiar en las cosas terrenales, y

vanas. Ni siquiera sabemos cuántos años vamos a

tener que disfrutar de ello. Nuestro Señor hoy casi

responde a la pregunta de Eclesiastés sobre el punto

de luchar por cosas vanas, y San Pablo aprendió la

lección. Lo que es realmente mejor para nosotros y

para otros es lo que el Señor considera un tesoro. Él

creó todas las cosas y sabe en qué vale la pena

invertirlo. El jubilado rico en la parábola de hoy no

usó los bienes que el Señor había puesto en su camino

para acumular cierto y duradero bienestar en el cielo.

Decidió acumular su riqueza y vivir de sus ganancias.

Todos hemos escuchado de las jubilaciones

anticipadas. La falla en su lógica es que pensaba que

tendría tiempo. La pregunta de Eclesiastés

trágicamente nos presenta que será de las riquezas del

hombre rico se le quitaran a él en la muerte,

dejándolas para otra persona, dejándolo sin nada. La

riqueza que nos ofrece nuestro Señor no es

transferible y nunca caduca. La Santidad y la virtud

son las inversiones que nos duran para siempre.

Que Dios los bendiga.

Padre Dan.

P.S. Agosto 4, de 1994 fue mi 1 º día en San

Jerónimo. Claramente recuerdo preguntándome cómo

sería mi 1er año. Msgr. Bill Pickard llegó a la vieja

iglesia me instalo como el nuevo pastor. O ¿adónde se

fue el tiempo? Ahora he pasado la mitad de mi

sacerdocio aquí en San Jerónimo y apenas me di

cuenta. Gracias por todas tus oraciones.
