At the Gospel Acclamation, the Deacon makes a pro-found bow before the priest and asks for the blessing, saying in a low voice: "Your blessing, Fa-ther." The priest blesses him: "May the Lord be in your heart...." The deacon signs himself with the sign of the cross and re-sponds: Amen.

En la Aclamación del Evan-gelio, el Diácono hace una reverencia profunda ante el sacerdote y le pide la bendición, diciendo en voz baja: "Su bendición, Pa-dre". El sacerdote lo bendice: "Que el Señor esté en tu corazón ..." El diácono se firma con la señal de la cruz y re-sponde: Amén.

Using Talents If we use God’s talents, we shall find that they become multiplied in the use. We thought we had two; we find we have five. —Richard Meux Benson

Uso de los Talentos Si usamos los talentos que Dios nos ha dado, notaremos que se multiplican con el uso. Creímos tener dos, y resulta que tenemos cinco.

—Richard Meux Benson

A Thankful Heart A thankful heart is not only the great-est virtue, but the parent of all the other virtues. —Cicero

Un Corazón Agradecido El corazón agradecido no sólo es la más grande virtud, sino que es el padre de todas las otras virtudes. —Cícerón

Treasures From Our Tradition Earlier this autumn, we looked at how our Eucharistic Prayers have been en-riched by the approval of several new prayers to augment the old Roman Canon. For us, there are the four standard pray-ers, three for Masses with Children, and the most recent addition, the former Swiss Eucharistic Prayer with four alternative forms (now known as the Eucharistic Pray-er for Masses for Various Needs and Occa-sions). We also have two Eucharistic Pray-ers for Masses of Reconciliation. The source for these two prayers is the re-quest by many bishops for a special pray-er for the “Holy Year” of 1975. Originally, the committee in charge was commis-sioned to write a single prayer, but the theme proved so rich that it gave rise to two. The first is based on and develops biblical texts on reconciliation. The second starts with the experience of living in to-day’s fractured world, and how the Spirit calls us to reconciliation and peace. Not everyone was happy with all this creativity, saying that if too many were published, it would be difficult for the Vatican to control further requests. Everyone thought the pope would put strict limits on the prayers, but in the end he said he was willing to open doors that had long been closed. Although he approved them for a period of only three years, they were never formally removed from the Sacramentary and have been incorporated into the new Roman Missal. —Rev. James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

Tradiciones de Nuestra Fe El 23 de noviembre de 1927, un pe-lotón de soldados conducía al jesuita mexicano Miguel Agustín Pro Juárez al paredón de fusilamiento. Uno de ellos le susurraba “perdóneme”. Miguel le respondió que no sólo lo perdonaba, sino que le daba las gracias por darle la oportunidad de dar testimonio de su fe derramando su sangre por Cristo. Días antes había sido arrestado y acusado de intento de asesinato contra el presidente mexicano Álvaro Obregón. En realidad su delito era el de bautizar niños, ben-decir matrimonios, llevar la comunión a los enfermos y escuchar la confesión de los arrepentidos. Miguelito nació en 1891 y entró al noviciado jesuita en 1914, al mismo tiempo que el gobierno mexicano comenzaba una persecución en contra de la Iglesia. Debido a esta situación, Miguel tuvo que hacer su for-mación religiosa fuera de México. Ape-nas pudo, regresó a su nación como sa-cerdote e hizo su pastoral a escondidas, sabiendo muy bien que podía ser martiri-zado. Miguel decía a sus amigos que al morir iría al cielo y si se encontraba con santos resecos, bailaría un jarabe tapatío hasta hacerles sonreír para Cristo Rey.

DID YOU KNOW? Online Grooming Learning all we can about how preda-tors groom children through online con-tact is key to keeping them safe at all times. Language is a predator’s tool for grooming online. One tactic that online predators use to groom a potential vic-tim is by complimenting and reinforcing their self-image as a way of normalizing their interactions. Compliments are used to build trust, desensitize, and mentally or emotionally isolate the po-tential victim from others. It is im-portant to remember that monitoring the online communication of young people on chats, apps, gaming web-sites, etc. is key in preventing abuse. For a copy of the VIRTUS® article “The Language of Online Grooming,” visit: http://www.la-archdiocese.org/org/protecting/Pages/VIRTUS-Current-Online-Articles.aspx or call 213-637-7508.

¿SABÍA USTED? Atracción por Internet Aprender todo lo que podamos acer-ca de cómo los depredadores preparan a los niños a través del contacto en línea es clave para mantenerlos a salvo en todo momento. El lenguaje es la herramienta de un depredador para atraer a alguien por Internet. Una tácti-ca que los depredadores en línea utili-zan para preparar a una víctima poten-cial es complementando y reforzando su autoimagen como una forma de normalizar sus interacciones. Los elo-gios se utilizan para crear confianza, desensibilizar y aislar mental o emocio-nalmente a la víctima potencial de otros. Es importante recordar que con-trolar la comunicación en línea de los jóvenes en chats, aplicaciones, sitios web de juegos, etc. es clave para pre-venir el abuso.
