Structured into four Parts, the Part One of the Catechism of the Catholic Church deals with the profession of faith. It is further divided into articles and chapters. Interesting topics are: the mystery of God, the Revelation of God, the transmission of Divine Revelation, the Sacred Scripture, and man’s response to God which is sectioned, “I believe” and “we believe” and the title, “the Credo”. In different articles, the Credo is detailed. There are articles devoted to the mystery of Incarnation, and saving Act of Jesus- birth, ministry, suffering, death, Resurrection, Ascension, and His second coming. This is followed by the treaty on the Holy Spirit, the mystery of the Church. There are Chapters devoted to the Communion of Saints, and Mary, Mother of Christ the Mother of the Church. This part draws special attention with the treaty on the forgiveness of sins, the Resurrection of the Body and the life everlasting. Of interest for the curious minds of today are: the chapters on Particular Judgement, Heaven, Purgatory ( final purification), Hell, the Last Judgement. This part concludes with the Hope of the New Heaven and the New Earth. The topics mentioned above are not new to us. Many a time we take them for granted as if we are already very familiar with and there is nothing new to find. We can have two approaches: we can read from the beginning to the end in a sequential manner; or we can choose topics of special interest the meditatively read for a thorough understanding. To our surprise, there may be two effects in either way of reading the book. The first effect is that topics we thought we already knew well, will disillusion us to the awareness that there are more nuances to the issues beyond what we already were convinced of. The second effect is that the reading gives us a better clarity and a transparent certainty about what we believe and what we have already incorporated into the rationale of our devotional and spiritual life. In short, if we read the Part One of the Catechism, we will feel very comfortable to be a Catholic in this age. We will see that what we believe in came from the teachings of the Lord. We will see how the Holy Spirit inspired and guided the church leaders to define those tenets of our faith and preserved it from contamination due to the concerted efforts of mundane forces down the ages. After evening family prayer, or on special occasions, it is edifying for families to read certain portions of the catechism as a family together and discuss their influence on our thoughts and actions as Catholic today. God bless you all..

From the Pastor’s Desk / Del Escritorio del Padre
Estructurado en cuatro partes, la primera parte del Catecismo de la Iglesia Católica se ocupa de la profesión de fe. Se divide además en artículos y capítulos. Los temas interesantes son: el misterio de Dios, la Revelación de Dios, la transmisión de la Revelación Divina, la Sagrada Escritura y la respuesta del hombre a Dios, que está en la sección, "Creo" y "creemos" y el título, "el Credo" . En diferentes artículos, se detalla el Credo. Hay artículos dedicados al misterio de la encarnación y el acto salvífico de Jesús: nacimiento, ministerio, sufrimiento, muerte, resurrección, ascensión y su segunda venida. Esto es seguido por el tratado sobre el Espíritu Santo, el misterio de la Iglesia. Hay capítulos dedicados a la Comunión de los Santos, y María, Madre de Cristo, Madre de la Iglesia. Esta parte llama especialmente la atención con el tratado sobre el perdón de los pecados, la resurrección del cuerpo y la vida eterna. De interés para las mentes curiosas de hoy son: los capítulos sobre Juicio Particular, Cielo, Purgatorio (purificación final), Infierno, el Juicio Final. Esta parte concluye con la Esperanza del Cielo Nuevo y la Tierra Nueva. Los temas mencionados anteriormente no son nuevos para nosotros. Muchas veces los damos por sentados como si ya estuviéramos muy familiarizados y no hay nada nuevo que encontrar. Podemos tener dos enfoques: podemos leer desde el principio hasta el final de manera secuencial; o podemos elegir temas de especial interés que leamos meditativamente para una comprensión profunda. Para nuestra sorpresa, puede haber dos efectos en cualquier forma de leer el libro. El primer efecto es que los temas que pensamos que ya conocíamos bien, nos desilusionarán a la conciencia de que hay más matices en los problemas más allá de lo que ya estábamos convencidos. El segundo efecto es que la lectura nos da una mejor claridad y una certeza transparente sobre lo que creemos y lo que ya hemos incorporado a la lógica de nuestra vida devocional y espiritual. En resumen, si leemos la Parte Uno del Catecismo, nos sentiremos muy cómodos para ser católicos en esta era. Veremos que lo que creemos proviene de las enseñanzas del Señor. Veremos cómo el Espíritu Santo inspiró y guió a los líderes de la iglesia para definir esos principios de nuestra fe y preservarlo de la contaminación debido a los esfuerzos concertados de las fuerzas mundanas a lo largo de los siglos. Después de la oración familiar de la tarde, o en ocasiones especiales, es edificante para las familias leer ciertas porciones del catecismo como familia juntas y discutir su influencia en nuestros pensamientos y acciones como católicos de hoy. Dios los bendiga a todos..

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION Apart from the period from Thanksgiving through Christmas, the summer is a favored time for family reunions. We trace family trees and recall our origins. Worship has a family tree as well, and the way we celebrate today has been influenced by various styles and customs through the centuries. We are Western Christians of the Latin Rite. By far, we are the most numerous Western Christians, but there are other ritual families as well. The Archdiocese of Milan in Italy follows the Ambrosian Rite, Toledo in Spain preserves the Mozarabic Rite and the Arab language, and Lyons in France is home to the Gallican Rite. Other liturgical families, such as the Celtic in Ireland and the Sarum in England, faded away after the Reformation. Until recent times, members of some ancient religious orders such as Carmelites and Trappists followed a pattern of Mass that varied slightly from the plan observed in Latin Rite parishes.
A jar of honey lasts practically forever. The oldest jar of honey ever discovered was over five thousand years old. Honey is quite different from market-fresh produce, then; because most fruits and vegetables last only a few days, we treat them carefully. At this time of summer, we rush to find recipes for cherries and cucumbers so we won’t waste a single one. We wouldn’t feel that same urgency about honey.
Un frasco con miel prácticamente dura por siempre. El frasco de miel más antiguo descubierto tenía casi más de cinco mil años de antigüedad. La miel es muy diferente de cualquier otro alimento producido; entonces porque muchas frutas y vegetales solo duran unos pocos días si las cuidamos. En este tiempo del verano, nos apresuramos a encontrar recetas para cerezas y pepinos para no desperdiciar ni uno solo. Pero no tendríamos la misma prisa para la miel.
