The understandings of all who have received the word of God are virgins. For such is the word of God, that of its purity it imparts to all, who by its teaching have departed from the worship of idols, and have through Christ drawn near to the worship of God. They take their lamps, i.e. their natural faculties, and go forth out of the world and its errors, and go to meet the Savior, who is ever ready to come to enter with them that are worthy to His blessed bride the Church.

PARISH COUNCIL MEETING Reunión del Consejo Parroquial November 20 7:00 p.m. Father Price Center Angelus Address of Pope Francis November 5, 2017 We, disciples of Jesus, should not seek titles of honor, of authority or of supremacy. I tell you that it hurts me personally to see persons that live, psychologically, running behind the vanity of honors. We, disciples of Jesus, must not do this, because, among us, there must be a simple and fraternal attitude. We are all brothers and in no way must we overpower others, and look down on them. No. We are all brothers. If we have received qualities from the celestial Father, we must put them at the service of brothers, and not take advantage of them for our personal satisfaction and interest. We must not consider ourselves superior to others; modesty is essential for an existence that wishes to be in conformity with the teaching of Jesus, who was meek and humble of heart, and who came not to be served but to serve. May the Virgin Mary, humble and higher than any creature (Dante, Paradise, XXXIII, 2), help us, with her maternal intercession, to shrink from pride and vanity, and to be meek and docile to the love that comes from God, for the service of our brothers and for their joy, which will also be ours. Discurso del Angelus del Papa Francisco 5 de noviembre de 2017 Nosotros, discípulos de Jesús, no debemos buscar títulos de honor, de autoridad o de supremacía. Os digo que personalmente, sufro viendo personas que psicológicamente van corriendo detrás de la vanidad de los títulos de honor. Nosotros discípulos de Jesús, no debemos hacerlo porque entre nosotros tiene que haber una actitud simple y fraterna. Todos somos hermanos y hermanas y no debemos de ninguna manera aplastar a los otros. No debemos mirarlos [en alto] no, todos somos hermanos. Si hemos recibido cualidades del Padre celestial, debemos ponerlas al servicio de los hermanos, y no sacar provecho para nuestra satisfacción y nuestro interés personal. No nos debemos considerar superiores a los otros; la modestia es esencial para una existencia que quiere estar conforme con la enseñanza de Jesús, que es dulce y humilde de corazón y que ha venido no para ser servido, sino para servir. Que la Virgen María, humilde y superior a todas las criaturas (Dante, Paradis, XXXIII, 2), nos ayude, por su intercesión materna, a horrorizarnos del orgullo y de la vanidad, y a ser dóciles al amor que viene de Dios, para el servicio de nuestros hermanos y para su gozo que también será el nuestro.
