Stewardship

Eyes Wide Open Only Saint Luke tells the story of two disciples walking to Emmaus, and it is full

of puzzling gaps. While all the other disciples and Jesus’ mother were in Jerusalem trying to understand the amazing fact of the Resurrec on, why were these two hurrying out of town? Only one is named—Cleopas. Who was the other? A friend, a brother, a cousin or, perhaps, Cleopas’ wife? The two were going over the terrible events in Jerusalem during the previous days when they were joined by a stranger who asked what they were talking about. He listened intently to their story, and then explained what had happened to Jesus in the larger context of the Jewish scriptures. But these two were too blinded by grief to realize who the stranger was. When they reached the village it was late, so they persuaded him to come into the house, which we may guess was either this couple’s home or a rela ve’s. The culmina on of the story occurs when they sit down for a meal and Jesus breaks bread and gives thanks, at which moment “their eyes were opened” and they knew their guest was the Lord (Luke 24:31). It was not just that they opened their eyes, but they were awakened to a whole new reality. Perhaps that is just the point. God’s grace falls on us in the midst of dinner or as we hurry down the road, trying to get away. God’s grace falls on us smack dab in the everyday, ordinary moments, in the plain and simple struggles to understand, through conversa ons in the checkout line, at the bedside of a sick rela ve, during phone calls and driving the car to pick up or deposit the kids. The Emmaus story says that God is alive, right now, in every moment. Wake up and see!

A note from our Pastor For some me now, we have had difficulty maintaining a stable number of Extraordinary Ministers at Holy Communion for the Sunday noon Mass. As a result, we will be switching to Communion under one species for that Mass only un l we can recruit and train a sufficient number of new ministers. That means that we will receive Communion under the form of bread alone for the me being. Fr. Bruce _________________________________________________________________________________________________

Con los Ojos Bien Abiertos Sólo san Lucas cuenta la historia de los dos discípulos camino a Emaús, una historia llena

de vacíos misteriosos. Mientras que todos los demás discípulos y la madre de Jesús se encontraban en Jerusalén tratando de entender el hecho asombroso de la Resurrección, ¿por qué estos dos salían apurados de la ciudad? Sólo se menciona el nombre de uno: Cleofás. ¿Quién era el otro? Un amigo, hermano, primo o tal vez la esposa de Cleofás? Los dos platicaban sobre los terribles acontecimientos en Jerusalén durantes los días anteriores cuando de pronto un extraño se les une en el camino y les pregunta de qué hablaban. El extraño, después de escuchar atentamente la historia que contaban los otros dos, les explicó lo que aconteció con Jesús dentro del contexto total de las escrituras judías. Pero esos dos discípulos estaban demasiado cegados por el dolor para darse cuenta de quién era el extraño que les acompañaba. Era ya tarde cuando llegaron al pueblo, por eso lo convencieron a quedarse en la casa, la cual imaginamos que pertenecía a esta pareja o a algún familiar de ellos. La culminación de la historia ocurre cuando ya sentados a la mesa Jesús parte el pan y da gracias. Es en ese momento que “se les abrieron los ojos” y reconocieron que su invitado era el Señor (Lucas 24:31). No fue solamente que abrieron sus ojos, sino más bien que despertaron a una nueva realidad. Tal vez ése sea el caso; o sea, que la gracia de Dios llega a nosotros en medio de una comida o cuando nos precipitamos a salir como tratando de escaparnos. La gracia de Dios se derrama en nosotros en medio de los momentos cotidianos ordinarios, durante nuestras luchas para tratar de entender, en las conversaciones que surgen mientras esperamos en línea para pagar, junto a la cama de un familiar enfermo, durante llamadas telefónicas y mientras manejamos para recoger o dejar a los niños. La historia de Emaús dice que Dios está vivo, ahora mismo, en este momento. ¡Despierta y ve!
