3 A message from Fr. Tony SENT BY GOD In Amos me the voca on of prophet had achieved a very formal status in Israel. The prophets had arisen, originally, to act as God s voice when Israel was no longer led by the spiritual/civil figures known as judges, but by monarchs. Over me, the monarchy had appropriated the offices of priest and prophet, established them into companies, and reserved the right to appoint courtly prophets. Then, as now, when those in power also got to choose who would act as their official conscience, things some mes went awry. At such mes, God raised up prophets from unlikely places, and this is how Amos received his voca on as prophet. In last week s Gospel we heard how Jesus was raised up as God s anointed from a place many viewed as unlikely. As we con nue to discern our own voca on as bap zed disciples, we can be assured that we are, in Paul s words, chosen, des ned in accord with the purpose of the One who accomplishes all things according to the inten on of his will (Ephesians 1:11). Copyright J. S. Paluch Co. Un mensaje de parte de Padre Tony ENVIADO POR DIOS En la época de Amós la vocación de profeta había adquirido una posición muy formal en Israel. Originalmente los profetas habían surgido como los portavoces de Dios cuando Israel ya no se veía guiado por las figuras religioso-civiles a quienes conocemos como los Jueces, sino por los Reyes. Al correr del empo la monarquía de Israel se había apropiado los oficios de sacerdote y de profeta, estableciéndolos como órdenes, y reservándose el derecho de nombrar profetas oficiales para la corte real. Entonces, como ahora, cuando los que estaban en el poder escogían a los que iban a servirles de conciencia oficial, a veces las cosas se torcían. Y entonces Dios escogía profetas de donde menos se les esperaba. Así fue como Amós recibió su llamado a profe zar. En el Evangelio del domingo pasado vimos cómo Jesús surgió como el Ungido del Señor aunque venía de un lugar que muchos consideraban poco probable. Y nosotros, cuando con nuamos discerniendo nuestro propio llamado bau smal a ser discípulos, podemos estar seguros de que estamos, en las palabras de san Pablo: des nados [para eso], por decisión del que lo hace todo según su voluntad (Efesios 1:11).

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION Many marriage customs stand in tension with modern American a tudes and values, notably giving away the bride, which is no longer in the Catholic liturgy, and reminds us of a me when marriage was a contract between men (the groom and the bride s father). A Mexican custom, now approved for use in the United States, has a very different message. An ancient Roman custom called for smashing pieces of gold and silver so that bride and groom could each keep half. This is the origin of today s Mexican prac ce of the groom giving thirteen gold coins to the bride, symbolically placing all his worldly goods into her care, and a sign of his uncondi onal trust. The coins are o en given in beau ful gi boxes and are retained as an heirloom. Why thirteen? The standard explana on is that they represent Jesus and the apostles. The priest blesses the coins and pours them into the bride s cupped hands. Then she entrusts them to the groom, who later pours them back into her hands. This enduring ritual is in such harmony with our tradi on s view of marriage that it is now increasingly performed by English speaking Hispanic Catholics at weddings in the United States.
