MEssage from our Ministers27th Sunday in Ordinary Time
It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a suitable partner for him. - Genesis 2:18
Blessed are you who fear the Lord, who walk in his ways! - Psalm 128:1 . . . for whom and through whom all things exist. . . . - Hebrews 2:10 Amen, I say to you, whoever does not accept the kingdom of God like a child will not enter it. - Mark 10:15 We are created in God’s image and likeness (Genesis 1:27). St. Augustine writes that “We are made for you, O God, and our hearts are restless until they rest in you.” We are made for God and our relationship with God is paramount. Elizabeth Nagel writes that man and woman’s “mutual commitment in marriage also has the potential to reveal God’s patient longing and determination to live in union with—to make a life together with—humankind.” We ponder our relationship with God and what we can do to nurture and nourish that relationship. Do we ever think about how amazing it is that God desires a relationship with us? Let us reflect on God’s initiative in loving us and drawing us into relationship, into the kingdom of God. 
Décimo Séptimo Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario
"Dijo Yavé Dios: «No es bueno que el hombre esté solo. Le daré, pues, un ser semejante a él para que lo ayude.»" - Génesis, 2 - Bíblia Católica Online "Felices los que temen al Señor y siguen sus caminos." Salmos, 128 - Bíblia Católica Online . . ."Dios, del que viene todo. . . ." Hebreos, 2 - Bíblia Católica Online "En verdad les digo: quien no reciba el Reino de Dios como un niño, no entrará en él." - Marcos, 10 - Bíblia Católica Online Somos creados a imagen y semejanza de Dios (Génesis 1:27). San Agustín escribe que "Estamos hechos para ti, oh Dios, y nuestro corazón está inquieto hasta que descanse en ti". Estamos hechos para Dios y nuestra relación con Dios es primordial. Elizabeth Nagel escribe que el "compromiso mutuo en el matrimonio del hombre y la mujer también tiene el potencial de revelar el paciente anhelo y la determinación de Dios de vivir en unión con la humanidad". Reflexionamos sobre nuestra relación con Dios y lo que podemos hacer para nutrir y nutrir esa relación. ¿Pensamos alguna vez en lo asombroso que es que Dios desee tener una relación con nosotros? Reflexionemos sobre la iniciativa de Dios al amarnos y acercarnos a una relación, al reino de Dios. AN ACT OF SPIRITUAL COMMUNION My Jesus, I believe that You are in the Blessed Sacrament. I love You above all things, and I long for You in my soul. Since I cannot now receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. As though You have already come, I embrace You and unite myself entirely to You; never permit me to be separated from You. Sincerely, Fr. Mark PUBLIC CELEBRATION OF MASS - COVID-19

Gospel Meditation
God is Madly in Love with Us In today’s Mass, we listen to several of my favorite Bible passages which describe the amazing power of God’s love. God is so madly in love with us that he wanted to come down from heaven and join our human family. In the second reading from the Letter to the Hebrews, we hear these astonishing words: “For a little while was made lower than the angels." God had to humble himself in order to become a man because human beings are much lower and more ignorant than the angels. Even the angels in the lowest angelic choirs are a thousand times smarter than any human being. Human beings are like pets in comparison to the intelligence of an angel. Then the Letter to the Hebrews explains that Jesus was not embarrassed by becoming one of us: “he is not ashamed to call them ‘brothers.’” These amazing scripture passages show us that God is so totally in love with us that he was willing to do something crazy. He was not too embarrassed. Someone who is in love is never embarrassed to be seen with the one he loves. That is how much God loves us poor, earthly creatures. Some people say that human beings are nothing more than the product of an evolutionary process. But the Bible says that God loves us so much that he condescended to become one of us so that he could live with us and suffer with us and even die for us: “He suffered death, he who for a little while was made lower than the angels, that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone.” (Hebrews 2:9) He wanted to show his love by suffering and by becoming our leader in salvation “bringing many children to glory… therefore, he is not ashamed to call them ‘brothers.’” (Hebrews 2:11) The other readings that we hear today describe the very earthy and humble condition of human beings who survive by procreating. (Genesis 2:18-24, Psalm 128:3 and Mark 10:1-16) We live in the flesh and we have bodily needs and emotions which are only satisfied by mutually supporting each other in marriage and in childrearing. We suffer when we experience the pains of childbirth, and the painful separations caused by divorce and death. The angels have no need for these fleshly things. The demons despise and ridicule these things as somehow degrading. But in today’s Gospel, we see that Jesus raises up, exonerates the dignity of marriage and family life. In the Gospel of Mark Jesus clearly condemns divorce and then shows his love for the fruit of marriage by embracing the little children (Matthew 10:2-16). God has come down from his lofty throne above the angels to validate and vindicate our humanity and our sexuality! He even shows himself to be the bridegroom who has come to give us the new wine of his love, to suffer for his bride, the Church, and to consummate the marriage on the bed of the cross (Cf. John 2 and John 22, the only two places in John’s Gospel where the nuptial themes are mentioned: wine, marriage, consummation, and “the woman”). Christ the bridegroom of the Church is not ashamed to associate with us, and to unite his flesh to ours as one body in the Church! Eternally, at the heavenly wedding feast, we will thank him for raising us above the angels his children, his heirs, heirs of God, and co-heirs in Christ! (Romans 8:17) October is the month of the rosary. Let’s use our rosaries to meditate on all of these wonderful mysteries!
MEDITACIÓN EVANGÉLICO Dios Está Tan Enamorado de Nosotros En la Misa de hoy escuchamos algunas pasajes bíblicos que son mis favoritos. Son pasajes bíblicos que describen la locura del amor de Dios. Dios es tan loco de amor por nosotros que quiso bajar del cielo y unirse a nuestra familia humana. En la lectura de la Carta a los Hebreos, escuchamos las siguientes palabras: “por un tiempo Dios hizo inferior a los ángeles a Jesus.” Dios se humilló muchísimo para hacerse hombre. El ser humano es mucho más ignorante y más humilde que los ángeles. Aun los ángeles mas humildes que pertenecen a los coros angélicos más bajos son mil veces más inteligentes que cualquier ser humano. Los seres humanos parecen como mascotas en comparación con la inteligencia de un ángel. La Carta a los Hebreos sigue, diciendo que Jesús no se avergonzó de hacerse en uno de nosotros: "no se avergüenza de llamarlos 'hermanos'". Estos asombrosos pasajes de las Escrituras nos muestran que Dios está tan enamorado de nosotros que estaba dispuesto a hacer algo loco. No estaba demasiado avergonzado.Una persona que está enamorado nunca se avergüenza de salir con quien ama. De igual manera, Dios ama a nosotros, pobres criaturas terrenales. Algunas personas dicen que los seres humanos no son más que el producto de un proceso de evolución. Pero la Biblia dice que Dios nos ama tanto que condescendió a convertirse en uno de nosotros para poder vivir con nosotros y sufrir con nosotros e incluso morir por nosotros: “…El que por un momento Dios hizo inferior a los ángeles, Jesús, que por haber sufrido la muerte… quiere que todos sus hijos tengan parte en su gloria.” (Hebreos 2: 9) Jesús quería mostrar su amor sufriendo y convirtiéndose en nuestro líder en la salvación: “Jesús quiere que todos sus hijos tengan parte en su gloria. Por eso convenía que Dios consumara en la perfección, mediante el sufrimiento, a Jesucristo, autor y guía de nuestra salvación… Por eso no se avergüenza de llamar hermanos a los hombres. (Hebreos 2:11) Las demás lecturas que escuchamos en la Misa de hoy describen también la condición humilde de los seres humanos que no pueden sobrevivir en la tierra sino por medio de la procreación sexual (Génesis 2: 18-24, Salmo 128: 3 y Marcos 10: 1-16). Vivimos en la carne y tenemos necesidades corporales y emocionales que solo se satisfacen apoyándonos mutuamente en el matrimonio y en la crianza de los hijos. Sufrimos mucho al experimentar los dolores del parto y las dolorosas separaciones familiares causadas por el divorcio y la muerte. Los ángeles no necesitan de estas cosas carnales. Los demonios nos desprecian y nos ridiculizan porque consideran que estas cosas son degradantes. Pero en el evangelio de hoy vemos que Jesús exonera la dignidad del matrimonio y la vida familiar. En el Evangelio de San Marcos, Jesús condena el divorcio y luego da su aprobación por el fruto del matrimonio al abrazar a los niños pequeños (Mateo 10: 2-16). ¡Dios ha bajado de su trono celestial para dar validez y para reivindicar nuestra humanidad y nuestra sexualidad! Incluso Jesús es manifestado como el esposo que ha venido paraa darnos el vino nuevo de su amor, para sufrir por su esposa que es la Iglesia, y para consumar las bodas en el lecho de la cruz (Cf. Juan 2 y Juan 22, los únicos dos lugares del Evangelio de Juan donde se mencionan los temas nupciales: el vino, el matrimonio, la consumación y “la mujer”). ¡Cristo, el esposo de la Iglesia, no se avergüenza de asociarse con nosotros y de unir su carne a la nuestra para formar un solo cuerpo en la Iglesia! ¡Eternamente, en la fiesta de bodas celestial, le agradeceremos por habernos elevado por encima de los ángeles para que seamos, sus hijos, sus herederos, herederos de Dios y coherederos en Cristo! (Romanos 8:17) Octubre es el mes del rosario. ¡Usemos nuestros rosarios para meditar en todos estos maravillosos misterios! PrayerspRAYER FOR THE sICK

Stewardship ReflEctions
From our Stewardship Council
27th Sunday in Ordinary Time
“So out of the ground the Lord God formed every beast of the field and every bird of the air, and brought them to the man to see what he would call them; and whatever the man called every living creature, that was its name.” - Genesis 2:19
The creation story reminds us of two important points. First, since the start, God has put the entire world into our care. Second, stewardship has been around since the beginning of mankind; it isn’t something recently invented by the Church. Just as past generations built our Church, it is now our responsibility to continue to nurture and develop these gifts for future generations.

“Entonces el Señor Dios formó de la tierra a todos los animales del campo y las aves del cielo, y se los llevó al hombre para que pudiera nombrarlos; y el hombre les puso nombre a todas las criaturas vivientes, y ese fue su nombre”. - Génesis 2:19
La historia de la creación nos recuerda dos puntos importantes. Primero, desde el inicio, Dios puso el mundo entero bajo nuestro cuidado. Segundo, la corresponsabilidad ha existido desde el inicio de la humanidad, no es algo que ha sido recientemente inventado por la Iglesia. Así como las generaciones pasadas construyeron nuestra Iglesia, nuestra responsabilidad ahora es continuar cuidándola y desarrollando estos dones para las generaciones futuras.

Spiritual Communion
Even if one cannot sacramentally receive the Eucharist, everyone should be aware of the practice of making a spiritual communion. The following is a daily prayer for Spiritual Communion:
O my Jesus, I believe that You are in the Blessed Sacrament.
I love you above all things, and I desire to receive you into my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment receive you sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart.
I embrace you as if you were already there and
unite myself wholly to you.
Never permit me to be separated from you.
Amen.
-St. Alphonsus Liguori

Blessed Marie-Rose Durocher
|
1811-1849
Feast Day: October 6 Eulalie Durocher was the youngest of 10 children in a pious Quebec family; three brothers became priests and two sisters also became nuns. Because of ill health, Eulalie attended school sporadically and was rejected by several religious orders. For 12 years, she helped one of her priest-brothers in his parish, organizing charitable works and the first Confraternity of Mary in Canada. In 1843, with two friends and episcopal permission, she founded the Sisters of the Holy Names of Jesus and Mary to educate poor youths, especially in the countryside. As Mother Marie-Rose, she led the congregation until her early death; she was beatified in 1982. Holy Names’ sisters serve today in Canada, the United States, Lesotho, Peru, and Brazil.

1811-1849
Día de fiesta— 6 de octubre
Eulalie Durocher era la menor de 10 hermanos de una familia piadosa en Quebec; tres de sus hermanos fueron sacerdotes y también dos hermanas fueron religiosas. Debido a su delicada salud, Eulalie asistió esporádicamente a la escuela y fue rechazada por varias órdenes religiosas. A lo largo de 12 años, ella ayudó a uno de sus hermanos sacerdotes en su parroquia, organizando obras de caridad y la primera Confraternidad de María en Canadá. En 1843, con dos amigas y un permiso episcopal, fundó Las Hermanas de los Santos Nombres de Jesús y María a fin de educar a las jóvenes pobres, especialmente, en las zonas rurales. Convertida en la Madre Marie-Rose, ella dirigió la congregación hasta su temprana muerte; fue beatificada en 1982. Las religiosas de los Santos Nombres hoy prestan servicios en Canadá, Estados Unidos, Lesoto, Perú y Brasil.

“Our Lady showed us a great sea of fire which seemed to be under the earth. Plunged in this fire were demons and souls in human form.... ”
(Lúcia dos Santos, Visionary of Fátima)
The terrifying and horrific vision of hell, which the Shepherd Children witnessed, “lasted but an instant.” Lúcia tells us: “We looked up at Our Lady, who said to us, so kindly and so sadly: ‘You have seen hell where the souls of poor sinners go. When you pray the Rosary, say after each mystery: O my Jesus, forgive us, save us from the fire of hell. Lead all souls to heaven, especially those who are most in need.’”
Our Lady instructed the Little Shepherds: “Sacrifice yourselves for sinners, and say many times, especially whenever you make some sacrifice: ‘O Jesus, it is for love of You, for the conversion of sinners, and in reparation for the sins committed against the Immaculate Heart of Mary.’”
