Find the Missal (Ordinary of the Mass) at 150 in Oramos Cantando/We Pray in Song First Reading Jer 31:7-9 Thus says the LORD: Shout with joy for Jacob, exult at the head of the nations; proclaim your praise and say: The LORD has delivered his people, the remnant of Israel. Behold, I will bring them back from the land of the north; I will gather them from the ends of the world, with the blind and the lame in their midst, the mothers and those with child; they shall return as an immense throng. They departed in tears, but I will console them and guide them; I will lead them to brooks of water, on a level road, so that none shall stumble. For I am a father to Israel, Ephraim is my first-born. Responsorial Psalm Ps 126 (OC992) R. The Lord has done great things for us; we are filled with joy. Second Reading Heb 5:1-6 Brothers and sisters: Every high priest is taken from among men and made their representative before God, to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins. He is able to deal patiently with the ignorant and erring, for he himself is beset by weakness and so, for this reason, must make sin offerings for himself as well as for the people. No one takes this honor upon himself but only when called by God, just as Aaron was. In the same way, it was not Christ who glorified himself in becoming high priest, but rather the one who said to him: You are my son: this day I have begotten you; just as he says in another place: You are a priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek Gospel Mk 10:46-52 As Jesus was leaving Jericho with his disciples and a sizable crowd, Bartimaeus, a blind man, the son of Timaeus, sat by the roadside begging. On hearing that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out and say, "Jesus, son of David, have pity on me." And many rebuked him, telling him to be silent. But he kept calling out all the more, "Son of David, have pity on me." Jesus stopped and said, "Call him." So they called the blind man, saying to him, "Take courage; get up, Jesus is calling you." He threw aside his cloak, sprang up, and came to Jesus. Jesus said to him in reply, "What do you want me to do for you?" The blind man replied to him, "Master, I want to see." Jesus told him, "Go your way; your faith has saved you." Immediately he received his sight and followed him on the way.

El Misal (Ordinario de la Misa) esta en Oramos Cantando/We Pray in Song a Partir de 150

Primera lectura Jer 31, 7-9 Esto dice el Señor: “Griten de alegría por Jacob, regocíjense por el mejor de los pueblos; proclamen, alaben y digan: ‘El Señor ha salvado a su pueblo, al grupo de los sobrevivientes de Israel’. He aquí que yo los hago volver del país del norte y los congrego desde los confines de la tierra. Entre ellos vienen el ciego y el cojo, la mujer encinta y la que acaba de dar a luz. Retorna una gran multitud; vienen llorando, pero yo los consolaré y los guiaré; los llevaré a torrentes de agua por un camino llano en el que no tropezarán. Porque yo soy para Israel un padre y Efraín es mi primogénito”. Salmo Responsorial Salmo 125 (OC992) R. El Señor he estado grande con nosotros y estamos alegres. Segunda lectura Heb 5, 1-6 Hermanos: Todo sumo sacerdote es un hombre escogido entre los hombres y está constituido para intervenir en favor de ellos ante Dios, para ofrecer dones y sacrificios por los pecados. Él puede comprender a los ignorantes y extraviados, ya que él mismo está envuelto en debilidades. Por eso, así como debe ofrecer sacrificios por los pecados del pueblo, debe ofrecerlos también por los suyos propios. Nadie puede apropiarse ese honor, sino sólo aquel que es llamado por Dios, como lo fue Aarón. De igual manera, Cristo no se confirió a sí mismo la dignidad de sumo sacerdote; se la otorgó quien le había dicho: Tú eres mi Hijo, yo te he engendrado hoy. O como dice otro pasaje de la Escritura: Tú eres sacerdote eterno, como Melquisedec. Evangelio Mc 10, 46-52 En aquel tiempo, al salir Jesús de Jericó en compañía de sus discípulos y de mucha gente, un ciego, llamado Bartimeo, se hallaba sentado al borde del camino pidiendo limosna. Al oír que el que pasaba era Jesús Nazareno, comenzó a gritar: “¡Jesús, hijo de David, ten compasión de mí!” Muchos lo reprendían para que se callara, pero él seguía gritando todavía más fuerte: “¡Hijo de David, ten compasión de mí!”. Jesús se detuvo entonces y dijo: “Llámenlo”. Y llamaron al ciego, diciéndole: “¡Ánimo! Levántate, porque él te llama”. El ciego tiró su manto; de un salto se puso en pie y se acercó a Jesús. Entonces le dijo Jesús: “¿Qué quieres que haga por ti?” El ciego le contestó: “Maestro, que pueda ver”. Jesús le dijo: “Vete; tu fe te ha salvado”. Al momento recobró la vista y comenzó a seguirlo por el camino.

St. Pius V Catholic Church October 25, 2015

30th Sunday in Ordinary Time

Queridos amigos,

El Evangelio hoy nos llama a abrir los ojos, para ver realmente lo cual el Señor nos ha estado diciendo a

nosotros estas últimas semanas sobre Corresponsabilidad. Hace dos semanas, hemos oído la llamada del hombre

rico para dar todo y seguir a Jesús. El domingo pasada vimos a Jesús como el Siervo Sufriente, el siervo de

todos, y durante la semana pasada nos enteramos del Capítulo 12 del Evangelio de San Lucas de lo que es ser

siervo fiel como un discípulo de Cristo.

A lo largo de este mes, hemos reflexionado y orado sobre Corresponsabilidad mientras que hemos participado

en la obra misionera de la Iglesia, hemos dado ayuda a los pobres dentro de nuestra comunidad, y hemos tratado

de ser buen pastores dentro de nuestras familias. Hoy volvemos nuestros ojos abiertos a las necesidades de

nuestra Iglesia local.

San Pío V es comunidad activa en el servicio al Señor. Esta actividad necesita apoyo para que nuestro

servicio pueda ser fructífero y agradable a Dios. Estamos llamados a dar de nosotros mismos en los ministerios

de todos tipos: en el ministerio social, el ministerio litúrgico, en la catequesis, en el mantenimiento de nuestros

lugares de reunión, y en las tareas de la parroquia del día a día. Estamos llamados a discernir la dirección del

Espíritu para nuestra comunidad en los distintos Consejos. Estamos llamados a apoyar, con los dones y los

bienes que Dios nos ha dado, su obra aquí en este lugar. Estamos llamados, cada uno de nosotros, a ser

corresponsables de esta comunidad de discípulos.

En los próximos meses, les pido a ustedes que sean generosos en nuestras colectas, que responden al

llamamiento del cardenal para el DSF, estén dispuestos a servir, y apoyen nuestras celebraciones parroquiales,

especialmente nuestro mini-festival de la Fiesta de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe y el Festival de la Parroquia en

la primavera.

Sé generoso hoy, sé generoso mañana y todos los días de tu vida, porque la Corresponsabilidad es una manera

de vida. Hoy en día, y cada día, vamos a despertarnos con el profeta Samuel para decir: "Aquí estoy, Señor.".

Padre Joe

Dear Friends,

The Gospel today calls us to open our eyes, to truly see what the Lord has been saying to us these past few

weeks about Stewardship. Two weeks ago, we heard him call the Rich Man to give all and follow him, last

week we saw Jesus as the Suffering Servant, the servant of all, and during this past week we heard from the 12th

Chapter of Gospel of Luke about what it is to be a faithful servant as a disciple of Christ.

Throughout this month, we have pondered and prayed about Stewardship as we have participated in the

missionary work of the Church, reached out to the poor within our community, and sought to be good Stewards

of the faith within our families. Today we turn our open eyes to the needs of our local Church.

St. Pius V is an active community in service to the Lord and all of that activity needs support so that our

service may be fruitful and pleasing to God. We are called to give of ourselves in ministry of all kinds: in social

ministry, in liturgical ministry, in catechesis, in the maintenance of our gathering places and in the day-to-day

tasks of the parish. We are called to discern the guidance of the Spirit for our community on the various

Councils. We are called to support, with the gifts and goods that God has given us, His work here in this place.

We are called, each one of us, to be Stewards of this community of disciples.

In the months ahead, I ask you to be generous in our collections, responsive to the Cardinal’s appeal for the

DSF, forthcoming in service, and supportive of our parish celebrations, especially our mini-festival on the Feast

of Our Guadalupe and the Parish Festival in the Spring.

Be generous today, be generous tomorrow, and all the days of your life, for Stewardship is a way of life.

Today, and every day, let us wake with the prophet Samuel to say “Here I am, Lord.”.

Fr. Joe
