Seventeenth Sunday in Ordinary Time The Prophet's Profit If you want to compare miracles in the first reading and the gospel, Elisha did his first, but Jesus did it better. Elisha had a hundred people to feed with twenty barley loaves and a handful of fresh grain. Jesus had five thousand people and only five loaves and a couple fish. So was Jesus trying to show up Elisha? Neither Jesus nor Elisha ever did a miracle for their own benefit. When Elisha cured the kings servant, he refused to accept a gift, because it would imply that Elisha did the miracle, while the prophet knew that God had cured him. Jesus refused to let the crowds make him a king. The miracle of feeding the five thousand was not done just for the crowd. He was using it to teach the disciples something important. He knew there would be times when they felt overwhelmed, so he showed them what God can do with our meager abilities. There are millions of people hungry for the good news that Jesus brings to the world. Remember the miracle of the loaves when you only have a few dollars to give to the missions, or when you're not sure you know enough to teach someone about Jesus. And remember that you do those things, not to make you look holy, but to let God show his loving power. The Buildings of San Felipe Neri Richard Ruddy Using the evolution of the buildings of San Felipe in Albuquerque s Old Town beginning in 1706, this two-part presentation traces cultural history from the extreme isolation of New Mexico in the 18th century. Sometimes clashing; sometimes blending, cultures changed with the arrival of Americans in the half of the 19th century. Extensive visuals, including rarely seen photographs, are used to tell this fascinating story. Richard Ruddy came to Albuquerque in 1949 and graduated from UNM in 1962. He is a Vietnam veteran and was a self-employed commercial photographer from 1972 to 2002. Ruddy wrote the award winning biography of Edmund G. Ross (2013), winner of the Gaspar Perez de Villagra award of the Historical Society of New Mexico and the Kansas Notable Book award. Ruddy is active in several history groups and lectures extensively about Albuquerque history.
