Matthew 25:13 * WISDOM We consider wisdom today. The first reading from the book of Wisdom presents this precious gift as a feminine spirit, a very desirable virtue sought by many and graciously present to all who seek her. In today's Gospel, Jesus tells a parable to illustrate wisdom in a practical, measurable way. The wise will conserve their resources, use them prudently, and mark the passing of time. The foolish, on the other hand, not planning ahead, will be in the dark. Both of these readings tell us how accessible wisdom is to all who simply and honestly seek it. Paul's words to the Thessalonians are not about wisdom, but describe one result of true wisdom: To the wise person of faith even death holds no terror. Our faith in Jesus' resurrection tells us we will all one day rise to new life in Christ. * READINGS FOR THE WEEK Monday: Wis 1:1-7; Ps 139:1b-10; Lk 17:1-6 Tuesday: Wis 2:23 3:9; Ps 34:2-3, 16-19; Lk 17:7-10 Wednesday: Wis 6:1-11; Ps 82:3-4, 6-7; Lk 17:11-19 Thursday: Wis 7:22b 8:1; Ps 119:89-91, 130, 135, 175; Lk 17:20-25 Friday: Wis 13:1-9; Ps 19:2-5ab; Lk 17:26-37 Saturday: Wis 18:14-16; 19:6-9; Ps 105:2-3, 36-37, 42-43; Lk 18:1-8 or (for the memorial of the Dedication) Acts 28:11-16, 30-31; Ps 98:1-6; Mt 14:22-33 Sunday: Prv 31:10-13, 19-20, 30-31; Ps 128:1-5; 1 Thes 5:1-6; Mt 25:14-30 [14-15, 19-21] * Sanctuary Lamp for the week of November will burn in memory of Patricia Rossi as requested by: Her Loving Family Mass Book for 2018 If you have had a loved one buried from the parish during the last year, you may reserve a Mass to be celebrated for that deceased person.

Trigésimo Segundo Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario 12 de noviembre de 2017 Estén, pues, preparados, porque no saben ni el día ni la hora. Mateo 25:13 * LA SABIDURÍA Nuestra tema de hoy es la sabiduría. La primera lectura del Libro de la Sabiduría presenta este valioso regalo como un espíritu femenino, una virtud muy deseable buscada por muchos y posible, por la gracia de Dios, para todos los que la buscan. En el Evangelio de hoy, Jesús relata una parábola para ilustrar de una manera práctica y concreta qué es la sabiduría. Los sabios conservan sus recursos, los usan prudentemente, con atención al paso del tiempo. Los tontos, por otro lado, por no planear su futuro, quedarán en la oscuridad. Las dos lecturas indican lo accesible que es la sabiduría a todos los que la buscan de manera sencilla y sincera. Las palabras de Pablo no tocan directamente el tema de la sabiduría, pero describen un resultado de la verdadera sabiduría: A la persona sabia de fe ni la muerte le asusta, porque nuestra fe en la resurrección de Jesús nos dice que todos vamos a despertar a una vida nueva en Cristo.
