3 BIENAVENTURADOS O DICHOSOS Cuando pensamos en la palabra bienaventuranza pensamos en el discurso de hoy del Evangelio según Lucas, o en el más familiar según Mateo (que comienza Dichosos lo que tienen espíritu de pobre... ). En realidad, las bienaventuranzas ocurren en los profetas y evangelios. Hoy, en Jeremías (con un eco en el salmo) oímos: Bendito el hombre que confía en el Señor (Jeremías 17:7). Luego de su resurrección en el Evangelio de san Juan, Cristo proclama: Dichosos los que creen sin haber visto! (Juan 20:29). Los evangelistas colocaron estos dichos por todos los evangelios como cortos recordatorios sobre las caracteríscas de quien sigue a Cristo, características que ayudarán a diseminar la Buena Nueva en esta vida y llevarnos a la dicha eterna en la próxima. En latín, los santos son llamados Beati o Beatos porque son aquellos que viven la vida feliz descrita por Jesús en los evangelios. Qué dichosos somos cuando nos esforzamos por hacer de nuestros días bienaventuranzas vivas! Copyright J. S.

5 BLESSED When we think of the word Beatitude we think of today s discourse from Luke s Gospel, or the more familiar one from Matthew (which begins Blessed are the poor in spirit... ). Actually, beatitudes occur throughout the prophets and Gospels. Today in Jeremiah (with an echo in the psalm) we hear, Blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord (Jeremiah 17:7). Following his resurrection in John s Gospel, Christ proclaims, Blessed are those who have not seen and have believed (John 20:29). The evangelists placed these sayings throughout the Gospels as short reminders about the characteristics that one will find in a follower of Christ, characteristics that will help spread the Good News in this life and lead to eternal blessings in the next. In Latin, the saints are called the Beati, the Blessed, for they are the ones who lived the blessed life as described by Jesus throughout the Gospels. How blest are we, when we also strive to make our own days a living beatitude! Copyright J. S. Paluch Co., Inc. Dessert Auction The Annual Youth Dessert Auction and Pot luck will be held Sunday Mass. Homemade Soup and Chili will be provided by the Social Events Committee. Each family is asked to provide 6 sandwiches to share. Lots of delicious desserts will be auctioned, with the proceeds going to the youth. IF YOU ARE NEW TO ST. ANDREW, WE WOULD LOVE FOR YOU TO COME JOIN TOO!!!!! Please help keep our Sanctuary clean. After Mass on the weekends, if you could kindly tidy up your pew and the area around you. Our current cleaning service does not do this for us, so we need your help in keeping our Sanctuary looking nice. Oh, and don t forget to take home your bulletins!
