STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION There is something fascinating about stars. Even though science explains them to us, identifies them, and makes us realize they can each be very different, our perception of them is the thousands of “points of light” in our night sky. Our readings today deal with Christ’s Second Coming, the end time. Part of the message in these readings has to do with our preparedness. If the Lord would come today, are we ready? Are our lives in order that we might be counted among those united with the Lord in Heaven?
The First Reading from the Book of Daniel speaks of the stars; comparing the night sky to wise and good people: “…the wise shall shine brightly like the splendor of the firmament.” Daniel reminds us that to be truly prepared, we must seek and find righteousness. “Righteousness” is defined as “behavior that is morally justifiable or right.” Nevertheless, the Greek word in the Bible that we translate as “righteousness,” as is often the case, means more than that. It deals with our conduct in relation to others also.
To be righteous we must aspire to goodness, but we also must follow the admonitions of Christ to love one another. When we look at the night sky, are we one of the stars, one who leads others to justice? Practicing stewardship helps us in that regard.

REFLECIÓN DOMINICAL
Hay algo fascinante sobre las estrellas. A pesar de que la ciencia los explica a nosotros, los identifica y nos hace darnos cuenta de que cada uno puede ser muy diferente, nuestra percepción de ellos es los miles de "puntos de luz" en nuestro cielo nocturno.Nuestra lecturas acuerdo hoy con segunda venida de Cristo, la hora de finalización. Parte del mensaje en estas lecturas tiene que ver con nuestra preparación. Si el Señor vendría hoy, ¿estamos listos? ¿Están nuestras vidas con el fin de que puedan ser contados entre los que están unidos con el Señor en el cielo?
La primera lectura, tomada del libro de Daniel habla de las estrellas; comparando el cielo nocturno a las personas sabias y buenas: ". ... los entendidos resplandecerán como el resplandor del firmamento" Daniel nos recuerda que para ser verdaderamente preparado, debemos buscar y encontrar justicia. "La justicia" se define como "un comportamiento que es moralmente justificable o la derecha." Sin embargo, la palabra griega en la Biblia que traducimos como "justicia", como suele ser el caso, significa más que eso. Tiene que ver con nuestra conducta en relación con los demás también.
Para ser justos hay que aspiramos a la bondad, pero también hay que seguir las advertencias de Cristo a amarnos unos a otros. Cuando miramos el cielo nocturno, somos una de las estrellas, que conduce a otros a la justicia? Practicar la mayordomía nos ayuda en ese sentido.
Dn 12: 1‐3; Salmo 16: 5, 8‐11; Hebreos 10: 11‐14, 18; Mc 13, 24‐32

Adult Faith Formation Speaker Series presents…..
Is He Talking to Me? The Role of Revelation in Catholic Spirituality
with Steve Marshall Wednesday, November 18th , 7 pm in the Parish Hall
Do you long to hear the voice of God? Or, have you found a place to experience Him, but don't always see the connection between times of intense spirituality and day‐to‐day life? You're not alone! Come share your spiritual thirst with others. Learn from saints who have discovered the sanctity of the everyday and practiced a mysticism that opens up every moment to a mystical experience of Our Lord.
We will explore selections from Gerard Manley Hop‐kins, a 20th century Jesuit poet; St. John Eudes, a 17th century evangelist and preacher; and see the mystical core underlying Pope Francis' new encyclical, Laudato Si. All three call us to grow in a tender awareness of God's beautiful gifts that surround us.
Beginning Experience Weekend Widowed, divorced and separated persons ready to move beyond their grief are invited to attend a Beginning Experience Weekend on December 4‐6 at Vina de Lestonnac Retreat Center in Temecula. A trained team of peers leads participants through a healing and growth experience.

For further information or to register, call Joanne (619)895‐3418 or Cathy (619) 222‐9093.
