3RD SUNDAY OF ADVENT

LETTER TO THE DIOCESE OF IMMIGRANTS

MOST REVEREND NICHOLAS DiMARZIO, Ph.D., D.D.

DECEMBER 2016

In the Apostolic Letter of Pope Francis closing the Year of Mercy, our Holy Father begins with the words, “Misericordia el Misera” which were the Words St. Au-gustine used in recounting the story of Jesus’ meeting with the woman caught in adultery (Jn 8:1-11). Saint Augustine describes the event by giving the two new names to Christ and the adulterers, “Mercy with misery.” Our Holy Father reminds us that although the Year of Mercy ends, the showing of mercy to those confronted with misery is im-portant. The spiritual and corporal works of mercy, espe-cially welcoming the stranger, are founded on the beati-tudes that Jesus annunciated on the Mount; they are best ways of evangelizing the word today. This letter is written as comfort and support to the immi-grants - documented and undocumented - who find them-selves in our diocese in Brooklyn and Queens and who at the present time, find themselves in a miserable condition because of a change of the administration of our Nation which has threatened many with deportation. There is no doubt that we need to restore sensible immigration policies in our nation, notwithstanding the need for security in our country which is compromised by the presence of 11mil-lion undocumented persons. The deportation of these peo-ple will not guarantee security. We know that a wall be-tween the United States and Mexico, will not remedy the situation. As the poet Robert Frost said, “Walls do not make good neighbors,” and will not alone insure security. Dialogue with our neighbors is most important. And the legalization of those already here who are well established and working is a critical necessity. The Bishops of the United States, in solidarity with all im-migrants, have pledged to advocate for just and equitable laws governing migration to our country. I , as your bishop, speak to you immigrants and to all members of our Church who stand ready to assist you and understand your plight. You, and the many of you who have American-born chil-dren, will be the subject of our advocacy and protection as far as we can offer it to you. Please be assured that we will always welcome the stranger amongst us, no matter what is your legal status, and exhort the fellow members of our diocese in Brooklyn and Queens to do the same. The law of God takes precedence over human laws, and to this we must be witnesses. As the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe is celebrated, you may assured that we pledge our support and invoke the intercession of Our Lady of Guadalupe, Patroness of Mexi-co and Patroness of the Americas, to whose intercession we fly unto at this time of need.

CARTA A LA DIÓCESIS DE LOS INMIGRANTES

REVERENDÍSIMO NICHOLAS DiMARZIO, Ph.D., D.D.

DICIEMBRE DE 2016

En su carta apostólica por la clausura del Jubileo de la Mi-sericordia, nuestro Santo Padre el Papa Francisco comienza con las palabras “Misericordia et Misera”, que fueron las mismas quien usó San Agustín para relatar el encuentro de Jesús con la mujer adultera (Jn 8:1-11). En su descripción del suceso, San Agustín da a Cristo y a la adultera dos nue-vos nombres: “misericordia y miseria”. El Santo Padre nos recuerda que aunque el Año de la Misericordia ha termina-do, es esencial seguir practicando la misericordia con aque-llos que enfrentan cualquier miseria. Las obras espirituales y corporales de misericordia, especialmente acoger a los extranjeros, se hayan entre las Bienaventuranzas que Jesús predica en el Sermón de la Montaña; esas obras de miseri-cordia son la mejor manera de Evangelizar en el mundo de hoy. Esta carta está escrita con el ánimo de brindar consuelo y apoyo a muchos inmigrantes - documentados e indocumen-tados - que viven en nuestra diócesis en Brooklyn y Queens y que en el presente momento se sienten abatidos, afrentan miseria, debido a un cambio de administración en nuestra nación que pone a muchos en peligro de ser deportados. Sin dudas, necesitamos restaurar normas migratorias razonables en nuestra nación, sin ignorar la necesidad de garantizar la seguridad de nuestro país, que la presencia de 11 millones de personas indocumentadas pone en riesgo. La deportación de esas personas no nos garantizará la seguridad. Sabemos que construir un muro entre los Estados Unidos y México no remediará la situación. Como nos enseña el poeta Robert Frost, “buenos muros no hacen buenos vecinos”, y tampoco por si solos pueden garantizar nuestra seguridad. El dialogo con nuestros vecinos es lo mas importante. Y la legaliza-ción de las personas que ya viven en nuestro país , y están establecidas y trabajan aquí, es una necesidad esencial. Los obispos de los Estados Unidos, en solidaridad con to-dos los inmigrantes, se han comprometido a abogar por le-yes justas y equitativas para la regulación de la inmigra-ción. Yo, como vuestro obispo, me dirijo a ustedes, los in-migrantes, y a todos los miembros de nuestra Iglesia que están dispuestos a apoyarlos y que entienden su difícil si-tuación. Ustedes, y tantos de ustedes que tienen hijos naci-dos en Estados Unidos, contaran con todo el apoyo y la pro-tección que nosotros podamos brindarles. Sepan que siem-pre serán bienvenidos entre nosotros, sin importar su esta-tus legal. Y exhorto a todos los miembros de nuestra dióce-sis en Brooklyn y Queens a tener la misma actitud. La ley de Dios precede a las leyes humanas, y nosotros debemos dar testimonio de esta verdad. En el día que celebramos la Fiesta de Ntra. Sra. De Guada-lupe, les prometemos que pueden contar con nuestro apoyo, al mismo tiempo que pedimos por ustedes a Ntra. Sra. De Guadalupe, Patrona de México y Emperatriz de América, a cuya intercesión nos encomendamos en este momento de prueba.
