3 Page 3 From Fr. Faucher The Gospel for today and in the weeks to come is about parables. Jesus spoke often in parables, and about 40 of them, probably the ones he used the most, are preserved. A parable is defined by Wikipedia as: a succinct, didactic story in prose or verse which illustrates one or more instructive lessons or principals. It differs from a fable in that fables employ animals, plants, inanimate objects, or forces of nature as characters, whereas parables have human characters. Matthew reminds his Jewish readers of the prophet Isaiah and his prophecy about understanding the message of God. Isaiah says that only those who open their hearts can truly hear the Lord. Both this week and next week the parables are about sowing seeds and farming the land. For the people who heard these parables, they made perfect sense. It was their world. For most of us, the parable makes sense and we can understand it intellectually, but not emotionally. That is where the request of the apostles asking Jesus to explain the parables, helps us a great deal. For us, the explanation of a farming parable is usually more powerful than the parable itself. That is not true in some of the other non-farming parables. The first reading picks up this sowing of the seed theme, and Paul continues his trip through Romans. Next week s Gospel is a lot like this week s Gospel, so I will take that time to look at Paul and the Letter to the Romans. Fr. Tom Faucher, Pastor Emeritus NUESTRA SEÑORA DEL CARMEN, PATRONA DE CHILE. La devoción a la Virgen del Carmen ha sido siempre una de las más populares en América Latina. Su nombre viene del Monte Carmelo, en Tierra Santa. A este monte se retiraba a rezar el profeta Elías. Desde hace muchos siglos, se empezaron a reunir en el Monte Carmelo varios monjes a rezar y a hacer penitencia. La gente empezó a llamarlos "carmelitas". Estos religiosos le tenían una gran devoción a la Santísima Virgen y le construyeron un templo en ese lugar. A Chile llegó esta devoción en 1680, traída por los misioneros agustinos. Su amigo y servidor ~ Padre Jesús Camacho OUR LADY OF CARMEN, PATRONESS OF CHILE. One of the most popular devotions in Latin America has always been to the Holy Virgin of Carmen. Her name comes from the Carmel Mount, in the Holy Land. To this mount the prophet Elijah retired to pray. Many centuries ago, several monks gathered to pray and do penance. People called them "carmelites." Those brothers had a deep devotion to the Holy Virgin and built her a temple on the beautiful mountain. This devotion came to Chile in 1680 brought by Augustinian missionaries. Your friend and servant ~ Padre Jesus Camacho St. Mary s Parish App!
