(Carta en español en la página 5) “The Fruit God Expects ” By Fr. Mark Haydu, LC
The Chosen People were often compared to a garden or vineyard that God had planted and cared
for. First, he placed them in the Garden of Eden. Then he led them to flourish in Egypt before
accommodating them in the Promised Land. After all his care and cultivation, he expected to find
a fruitful return. In the Song of Songs and then with Jesus himself, not only are the people of God
compared to a vineyard, but each of our souls is compared to a vineyard where God plants seeds,
waters, and expects to find new growth by thirty-, sixty-, or one hundredfold.
In the image of the Chosen People, the Church, or our souls, one thing is constant: God expects a
return on his love. Not because he is selfish and in need of our response but because he knows
our happiness depends on receiving and showing him that love.
Jesus says the vineyard will be taken away from those who don’t care for it and given to those
who will produce its fruit. In the same way, grace will be directed away from some and toward
those who accept it and produce faith and love.
This is not a threat or “Catholic guilt.” This is a true Father letting his children know he loves them
too much to not take them seriously. He gives and gives for our growth and maturing, but if that
generosity isn’t sincerely embraced and appreciated, we will miss out on the true love of God.
Now is the time to accept his love and enjoy the fruits. +
God expects a return on his love. Not because he is selfish,
but because he knows our happiness depends on showing him love.
In an effort to be prepared in case of an emergency, we are creating a food pantry to help people in our community during emergencies. We ask that you support the parish and donate any of the following items to grow our food pantry ef-forts. • Bottled water
• Beef Jerky • Personal hygiene items • First aid kits
• Batteries
• Can Openers and Kitchen Tools • Candles and Matches • Blankets Thanks to all who have responded the call to help. Many people have been assisted. We hope to keep helping more families.

(Letter in English on page 3)
“El fruto que Dios espera” Por Fr. Mark Haydu, LC
A menudo se comparaba al Pueblo Elegido con un jardín o viñedo que Dios había plantado y
cuidado. Primero, los colocó en el Jardín del Edén. Luego los llevó a prosperar en Egipto antes de
alojarlos en la Tierra Prometida. Después de todo su cuidado y cultivo, esperaba encontrar un
retorno fructífero. En el Cantar de los Cantares y luego con el mismo Jesús, no solo se compara al
pueblo de Dios con una viña, sino que cada una de nuestras almas se compara con una viña donde
Dios planta semillas, riega y espera encontrar un nuevo crecimiento a los treinta, sesenta, o cien
veces.
A imagen del Pueblo Elegido, de la Iglesia o de nuestras almas, una cosa es constante: Dios espera
la devolución de su amor. No porque sea egoísta y necesite nuestra respuesta, sino porque sabe
que nuestra felicidad depende de recibir y mostrarle ese amor.
Jesús dice que la viña se quitará a los que no la cuiden y se la dará a quienes producirán su fruto.
De la misma manera, la gracia se desviará de algunos y se dirigirá hacia aquellos que la aceptan y
producen fe y amor.
Esto no es una amenaza o una "culpa católica". Este es un verdadero Padre que les hace saber a
sus hijos que los ama demasiado como para no tomarlos en serio. Él da y da para nuestro
crecimiento y madurez, pero si esa generosidad no es aceptada y apreciada con sinceridad,
perderemos el verdadero amor de Dios. Ahora es el momento de aceptar su amor y disfrutar de
los frutos. +
Dios espera un retorno de su amor. No porque sea egoísta,
sino porque sabe que nuestra felicidad depende de mostrarle amor.

Le pedimos que apoye a la parro-quia y que done cualquiera de los siguientes artículos para aumentar nuestros esfuerzos de despensa de alimentos. • Agua embotellada • Leche en polvo
