16th Sunday In Ordinary Time Page 2 Sixteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time July 20, 2014 Those who are just must be kind. Wisdom 12:19 PATIENTLY AWAITING JUDGMENT Matthew, more than any other evangelist, talks about Jesus leaving and returning home. Often Jesus leaves the house because crowds have assembled outside and want to be taught. Today, after having taught and dismissed the crowds, his disciples follow him home, seeking further explanation of what seem to be, at least to us today, pretty straightforward parables. For both Matthew and Mark, when Jesus is in the house with his disciples it signals a special teaching moment, and it should cause us today to perk up our ears. Usually it is Jesus giving commonsense advice about what it will mean to follow him. Today is no different. To follow Jesus means to be ready to encounter the followers of evil, to have to live and work and preach among them. It means patiently awaiting the judgment that can only come from God, the judgment of justly deciding who will be thrown into the flame and who will live to be a brightly shining saint. Let us heed this house teaching, for it will be the same for us who follow Jesus Christ today. Copyright J. S. Paluch Co.

16th Sunday In Ordinary Time Page 4 THE JOYS OF LIFE Lately I went on a fishing journey with parishioners Val and Paula, two seasoned experts of deep sea fishing. The care and preparations they took before we sailed made me feel secure and comfortable; the weather and the tides had to be safe, both fuel for the boat and ourselves was not let to chance, they made me feel part of the crew in launching the boat and when we headed for the fishing grounds. They shared the joy of their Alaska friends, and the many years spent in Homer, Alaska. Their friend Rourke told us the best fishing spots, and Pat the local minister, helped bait my hook and helped me land my first halibut. The compass or rudder was the Presence of God in His people, and in His landscapes. All of us are on life's journey, and as we receive, so also must we give. The Lord has taken the initiative, He has loved us first (1 Jn 4:19). I hope over the next few weeks to share some excerpts from "The Joy of the Gospel" by Pope Francis, who wants us to help guide others by the compass of the Gospels. God Bless, Fr. Mike ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Giggles: A small town doctor was famous in the area for always catching large fish. One day while he was out on one of his frequent fishing trips, he received a call to say that a woman at a neighboring farm was giving birth. He rushed to her aid and delivered a normal sized, healthy baby boy. The farmer had nothing with which to weigh the baby, so the doctor used his fishing scales. They showed that the baby weighed 34lb 10oz. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ A little girl won two goldfish at a fair. When the family arrived home, Her mother asked her what she was going to call them. "I think I'll call them One and Two," said the little girl. "They're unusual names for goldfish. Why have you chosen them?" "Because if One dies, I'll still have Two!" ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ It was a quiet day on the Ark and Noah was getting bored, so he told his wife that he was going fishing. "That's a good idea," she said. "You could do with a break." Thirty minutes later he was back and still complaining that he was bored. His wife said: "I didn't expect you back so soon. If you're that bored, why did you stop fishing after only half an hour?" Noah said: "I only had two worms."
July 20, 2014 Page 5 Decimosexto Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario 20 de julio de 2014 Que el justo sea humano. Sabiduría 12:19 ESPEREMOS PACIENTEMENTE EL JUICIO Mateo, más que los otros evangelistas, habla sobre Jesús que sale de su hogar y regresa. Muchas veces sale de su casa porque las multitudes se reúnen afuera y quieren que les enseñe. Hoy, después de haber enseñado y despachado a las multitudes, sus discípulos lo siguen hasta su casa buscando más explicación a lo que parece ser, al menos a nosotros hoy, parábolas muy directas. Tanto para Mateo como para Marcos, cuando Jesús está en la casa con sus discípulos siempre significa un momento especial para enseñar y nos debe hacer prestar atención. Usualmente es Jesús quien nos da consejos sensatos sobre lo que significa ser sus seguidores. Hoy no es diferente: seguir a Cristo significa estar listo a encontrarse con los seguidores del mal, tener que vivir y trabajar y predicar entre ellos, esperando pacientemente ese juicio que sólo puede venir de Dios, el juicio de decidir justamente quién será arrojado a las llamas y quién vivirá para ser un santo ejemplar. Escuchemos esta enseñanza casera para que significa lo mismo para nosotros que seguimos a Cristo hoy. Copyright J. S. Paluch Co.

El profeta proclama la paz mesiánica como una paz en donde animales voraces como el lobo, el leopardo, el león y la osa habitarán tranquilamente con animales mansos como el cordero, el cabrito, el ternero y la vaca y un niño pequeño los conducirá. Esta es una paz donde la justicia rectifica las desigualdades y pone fin a la violencia. En esta profecía el Cristo es un niño que pastorea el mundo con una eficacia sorprendente. Él hace lo que los gobernantes del mundo pretenden hacer pero nunca logran, pone fin a la guerra, la pobreza y el hambre. Por esta razón hay muchas imágenes del Niño Jesús como el Santo Niño de Atocha, el Niño Jesús de Praga, el Divino Niño de Bogotá y el Niño Jesús en manos de san Antonio, entre otros. Éstas captan el deseo cristiano de que el niño venga a conducirnos hacia la paz mesiánica y a la vez, nos recuerda que hay que ser como niños para entrar en el reino de Dios
