But Malachi explains that only dark, sunless days are in store for those who do not find a place for God in their lives. Conversely, he tells us that the warmth and light of God s healing justice await those who fear the Lord. That s a pretty comforting notion especially now in the already short and growing even shorter days of November. It s the sun-warmed stone, and then some. Paul speaks to us of justice as well, but points out that it is not a passive thing. To be treated justly, we need to do our fair share. If we are diligent and persevere we will be rewarded with and by the fruits of our labor. Lastly, Luke, too, tells us to persevere in faith, this time and our lives will be secure in God regardless of how we are treated by our enemies.

9 Trigésimo Tercer Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario 13 de noviembre de 2016 Page 9 Lecturas y Noticias TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE En 1769 los franciscanos bajo la dirección de fray Junípero Serra alzaron una cruz en Alta California, dedicando la primera misión en la zona a san Diego de Alcalá. Diego, cuya fiesta es el 13 de noviembre, fue un franciscano del siglo XV. Este santo español nunca fue sacerdote, prefiriendo servir a Dios como hermano lego (laico) ayudando a los pobres y cuidando a los enfermos. Siempre fue un humilde servidor de los demás. Aun cuando lo hicieron guardián (líder franciscano) nunca dejo de servir a los pobres, los enfermos y a sus hermanos franciscanos. Su afán por dar a los pobres las cosas del convento lo llevaba a esconder sus donaciones en su manto. Una vez un hermano le preguntó que escondía y el mintiendo respondió: rosas. El hermano insistió verlas y en lugar de la comida que llevaba a los pobres, aparecieron rosas y más rosas. La santidad del patrón de San Diego, California se apoya sobre tres pilares: 1) solidaridad con los más necesitados, 2) devoción a Cristo crucificado y 3) evangelizar en unión con la Iglesia. Quinceañeras Vamos a empezar a tener Quinceañeras de nuevo en nuestra parroquia, pero sólo durante la misa de 1:30 los domingos. Sólo sería la bendición durante la misa con los padres y padrinos. Si desea programar una Quinceañera póngase en contacto con Gina al (949) o por correo electrónico a gina@stcathchurch.org. Año Jubilar de la Misericordia Al ir concluyendo este Año Jubilar de la Misericordia, los primeros discípulos de Jesús preguntan lo que en cada época parece preguntarse acerca del fin del mundo: Maestro, cuándo va a ser eso? (Lucas 21:7). Pero en lugar de lo que nos gustaría saber, Jesús nos dice lo que necesitamos conocer. No se preocupen por desastres naturales, la violencia de las personas, el sufrimiento humano. Debido a la abundante misericordia de Dios, todo es gracia. Esto les servirá para dar testimonio de mí (21:13). El profeta Malaquías promete que brillará el sol de justicia, que les traerá la salvación en sus rayos (Malaquías 3:20a) y, Jesús describe cómo debemos recibir el fin Levántense, alcen la cabeza; se acerca su liberación (21:28). En lugar de estarnos preocupando por nosotros mismos y los riesgos del futuro, tanto el Evangelio de Jesús como el Año Jubilar de la Misericordia convocado por el Papa Francisco nos invitan a avanzar pasando nuestra vida proclamando la promesa de la abundante misericordia de Dios e interpretándola en obras vivas de compasión inagotable y consolación renovada.
