9 Trigésimo Primer Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario 30 de octubre de 2016 Page 9 Lecturas y Noticias TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE El 31 de octubre muchos se visten de monstruos y al día siguiente, los cristianos celebramos a todos los santos. Es interesante el contraste entre los dos días. Un día recordamos brujas y zombis y al siguiente conmemoramos vírgenes y mártires, religiosos y laicos comprometidos todos con una cosa en común: su amor a Dios, un amor que se hace carne en obras de caridad y justicia. La mayoría de los santos se hicieron santos gracias a los monstruos que los rodeaban. Los primeros mártires cristianos murieron a mano de los monstruos romanos, muchos religiosos medievales se refugiaban en Dios para protegerse de los monstruos internos que los tentaban con sexo, dinero y poder. Y en América muchos como Manuel Chin Sooj se hicieron testigos de la justicia en manos de los monstruos de gobiernos injustos. 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. Los monstruos, en fin no pueden vencer a los santos por eso en Guatemala el martirio de Manuel Chin Sooj, animó a los obispos guatemaltecos a unirse con la carta El clamor de la tierra a los esfuerzos de pobres en búsqueda de tierra y dignidad humana. Año Jubilar de la Misericordia En el Evangelio del domingo pasado leímos que el recaudador de impuestos hizo una hermosa oración y nosotros la podemos rezar este Año Jubilar de la Misericordia. Y en el Evangelio de hoy también leemos acerca de otro recaudador de impuestos quien se encuentra con Jesús y la historia ofrece una misión difícil de comprender. Los conocidos religiosos de Zaqueo consideraban a los recaudadores de impuestos algo bajo y eran despreciados social y espiritualmente; y luego la altura de Zaqueo combinaba. Jesús responde a ese juicio con misericordia. El pecado radical se encuentra con la gracia inmerecida. Dios busca y encuentra lo perdido; la casa de un pecador se convierte en la casa de salvación. El pecador pronto acepta la salvación contento (19:6), mientras que los justos se quejan juiciosamente de la misericordia de Dios. La misericordia tan bien nos desafía a nosotros. Como a Zaqueo, Jesús nos buscó y nos encontró, llamados por nuestro nombre recibimos a Jesús en el hogar de nuestro corazón. Por lo tanto, tenemos que terminar este Año Jubilar de la Misericordia como misioneros de misericordia, buscando con Jesús a nuestros compañeros pecadores, recibiéndolos con alegría (ver 19:6) como hermanas y hermanos queridos, y alegremente ofreciéndoles nuestra hospitalidad sin ningún juicio como la propia bienvenida a casa de Jesús.
