St. Justin Martyr Church August 24, 2014

Today’s Scripture First Reading -- Eliakim is destined by God to be a fa-

ther to those who live in Jerusalem (Isaiah 22:19-23). Psalm -- Lord, your love is eternal; do not forsake the

work of your hands (Psalm 138). Second Reading -- How deep are the riches and the

wisdom and the knowledge of God! (Rom 11:33-36). Gospel -- Jesus asked the disciples, "Who do you say

that I am?" Peter replied, "You are the Christ" (Matthew 16:13-20).

The English translation of the Psalm Responses from Lectionary for Mass (c) 1969, 1981, 1997, International Commission on English in the Liturgy Corporation. All rights reserved.

The Rock Peter was Jesus' choice to lead the fragile band of

apostles. In today's Gospel, Simon is given a new name--Peter, the "rock." In John's Gospel, Peter is called to be a shepherd. He is expected to lay down his life for his sheep. And tradition tells us that he did just that. But today we think about the durable rock-like quality that Jesus needed in a leader.

Peter was appointed to his leadership position for reasons we are not able to fathom. God knows, and Jesus knew well, that Peter was flawed. We cannot mistake his enthusiasms, though, his manifest love, and his great, exuberant faith. Those virtues saw him through. They are durable, tough, beautiful virtues. They make Peter a sympathetic and lovable person. They provide us with the balance and humor that we need as we consider our own roles in the universal church. Copyright (c) J. S. Paluch Co.

We Pray for the Deceased Please pray for these members of our parish family who passed

away recently:

Cletus Abeyratne, Oliva D’Agustino, Felicidad David,

Ressie Davis, Juanita Jara,

Alejandro Martinez, Donald Weber.

May their souls and all the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.

Treasures from our Tradition In recent weeks, we have looked at the evolution

of how Roman Catholics initiate children into the life of the Church. How did customs evolve in the Eastern Church? At one time, Christians in both East and West preferred to celebrate baptism in a community setting, with large numbers of adults and children ini-tiated at Easter. The two branches of Christianity be-gan to split on the proper time to do this.

In the East, water was blessed in abundance on the feast of the Epiphany, which marked, among other things, the baptism of the Lord. Once infant baptism was fixed on that day, local customs marking a birth began to evolve. One celebration was the giving of a name on the eighth day, another was the "purification" of the mother on the fortieth day after birth. In that blessing, re-enacting Mary and Joseph's journey to the temple, the priest took the baby in his arms and placed the child before the altar. Just as Simeon received the child Jesus, so the priest received the new Christian while chanting Simeon's prayer. Later, normally on Epiphany, the priest would baptize, chrismate (confirm), and give a few drops of the Precious Blood to the child in a joyous celebration of the whole com-munity. -Rev. James Field, Copyright (c) J. S. Paluch Co.

The November Pilgrimage to the Holy Land that was to be accompanied by Fr. Ven Amidar has been cancelled.

Are you interested in becoming Catholic? Were you baptized Catholic but never

received other Sacraments?

Are you Catholic but would you like to learn more about our faith? Are you Catholic and feel a need to get to know Jesus more closely? Are you baptized Catholic but never received the Sacraments of Holy Com-munion and/or Confirmation?

Those who fall into those categories are invited to come by the par-ish office and obtain an application form for classes. Information and requirements are listed on the form.

Attention Eucharistic Ministers to the Sick and Homebound

A new change will be occurring due to the retirement of Carole Fletcher, our coordinator of EM’s to the Sick and Homebound. One of our parishioners, Debbie Dela Cruz, has graciously accepted the posi-tion of coordinator starting September 1st. We are very grateful to her and thank her for her commitment to this ministry.

If you know of anyone that is sick or homebound and in need of Communion please call the Parish Office at 714-774-2595. We are al-ways looking for men and women that would like to help with this Min-istry. For information please contact Fr. Ven.

A sincere THANK YOU to Carole Fletcher for her years of service in this ministry, her work in our Be-reavement Ministry, as well as her many years as sec-retary for our parish’s School of Religious Educa-tion. We truly appreciate all Carole has done and all she has given to our parish and to our SRE students and teachers. Congratulations on a job well done, and we wish you well in your retirement.

REFLEXIONES SOBRE LA PALABRA ¿Quién soy yo?

Isaías 22:19-23 Sebna era un influyente personaje del reino, que ocupaba el cargo de tesorero y mayordomo del rey. En su condición de tal, el debía aseso-rar a Ezequías en diversos asuntos políticos y militares y es probable que du-rante la crisis con Asisria le haya recomendado le haya recomendado una alian-za con Egipto, que fue duramente rechazada por el profeta Isaías. El resultado de estos consejos desafortunados fue su destitución y sustitución por Eliaquim, que es objeto de elogio por parte del Señor. Como las personas ricas que no querían ser enterradas en lugares comunes junto con la gente pobre, Sebna se había labrado un sepulcro y esculpido una morada en la roca, que el profeta condena como indebida ostentación y soberbia.

Romanos 11:33-36 Aquí hay una alabanza a los designios misericordiosos de Dios. El texto lleva a una actitud de esperanza al mencionar la gloria futura que se manifestara, la seguridad de que estamos salvados en esperanza, la confian-za de que nada podrá separarnos del amor de Dios y la afirmación que Dios tendrá misericordia de los judíos y de todos.

Mateo 16:13-20 Con la pregunta, ¿ustedes quien dicen que soy yo? Jesús hace ver a sus discípulos que ha llegado para ellos el momento crucial. Con el paso a la segunda persona, Jesús reclama de sus discípulos una toma de posi-ción respecto de su persona. Ellos tienen que definir su posición a partir de una convicción personal. En el Antiguo Testamento, la expresión hijo de Dios se aplica a los ángeles, al pueblo elegido, a los israelitas fieles y de un modo espe-cial al rey, el ungido. Esta relación de paternidad y filiación establece un víncu-lo particular con Dios, fundado en la elección y en la misión que Dios confía a su elegido.

Nuestra cultura Para los hispanos el expresar de quien somos hijos o hijas, hermanos o

hermanas es decir exactamente quienes somos. No nos definimos individual-mente, sino como parte de una familia.

Reflexiones para la homilía Siempre nos gusta que nos digan lo que piensan de noso-

tros…sobre todo si es bueno. Jesús, sin embargo, tenía que saber ya lo que decía la gente, y sobre todo lo que decían sus amigos de él. Pero quizá haga esta pregunta como parte de una lección. Al decirle quien piensa que es, no solo verbalizan su fe, sino que también se dan cuenta de quienes son ellos mis-mos. Al decir que Jesús es hijo de Dios, se hace como un eco. Si Jesús es el Hijo del Dios vivo, nosotros tenemos que ser también hijos de Dios. Esta revelación es una gracia y una enorme alegría. Al proclamar quien es Jesús, estamos afirman-do el don de Dios en nuestras vidas. Por Jesús, somos hechos hijos de Dios.

Y ahora, digan lo que digan los demás de Jesús y digan lo que digan de nosotros, sabemos la verdad más absoluta y me-jor: somos amados hijos de Dios y por lo tanto, tenemos una inmensa dignidad. Es una dignidad que nos obliga a luchar por todos aquellos que son también hijos de Dios y por tanto están llenos de dignidad. Esto nos obliga a luchar por la justicia sea donde sea que nos encontremos; es decir, nos obliga a luchar por los derechos de los inmigrantes, por el derecho a una vi-vienda justa y una educación de calidad, pero también a buscar un trato justo en nuestra casa, en nuestras relaciones de unos con otros en familia y en el trabajo. El que Jesús sea Hijo de Dios es una enorme gracia, porque es la garantía de nuestra salvación y de nuestra libertad. Bendito eres, le dice Jesús a Pedro porque eso te lo ha revelado Dios mismo. Si nosotros podemos reconocer que Jesús es Hijo de Dios y que por tanto, nosotros somos hijos, seremos benditos, es decir, felices. Hemos tenido la gracia de ver la verdad.

Plantar y alimentar las semillas de la vocación

Los católicos hispanos están presentes en casi todas las diócesis de los Estados Unidos. Según la Conferencia de Obispos Católicos de Estados Unidos (USCCB), los hispanos constituyen más del 40% de los católicos del País; y un poco más del 53% de quienes tienen menos de 30 anos. En comparación, solo 7% de los sacerdotes, 12% de los diáconos y 11% de los obispos son hispanos, según las cifras recogidas por el Instituto Fe y Vida en 2013. Estas cifras han llevado a la USCCB a hacer prioritarias las vocaciones hispanas, saliendo al encuentro de los jóvenes latinos y creando una cultura vocacional en pa-rroquias y familias.

Por más de una década, el Centro de Recursos para el Ministerio Hispano de Publicaciones Claretianas ha traba-jado para fomentar vocaciones entre los jóvenes hispanos y sus familias a través de OYE!, una guía de fe y discer-nimiento que se publica anualmente en formato bilingüe y se distribuye libre de costo a parroquias, diócesis, minis-terios universitarios y grupos de jóvenes en todo Estados Unidos.

OYE! entiende la vocación como una llamada bautis-mal y presenta una amplia gama de vocaciones a la vida religiosa, el sacerdocio, la vida soltera y el matrimonio, así como toda clase de servicio y liderazgo en la Iglesia y la sociedad. La pagina web interactiva de OYE! y las redes sociales también atraen a los jóvenes hispanos a nivel nacional, reuniéndolos para compartir, discutir, orar y descubrir los muchos modos en que Dios esta llamán-dolos. Las parroquias, los grupos juveniles o quienes de-seen plantar o alimentar las semillas de la vocación com-partiendo modelos de fieles comprometidos que han se-guido su llamada, pueden acudir a la revista OYE! como recurso vocacional.

En mayo, el Papa Francisco pronuncio un mensaje con motivo de la 51 Jornada Mundial de Oración por las Vocaciones, pidiendo a los fieles que oraran por las voca-ciones. “Les pido a ustedes, obispos, religiosos, comuni-dades cristianas y familias, que orienten su planificación pastoral vocacional en esta dirección, acompañando a los jóvenes por los senderos de la santidad que, al ser perso-nales, exigen una verdadera “formación en la santidad” capaz de ser adaptada a las necesidades de cada persona. Esta formación debe integrar los recursos que se ofrecen a todo en tanto en las formas tradicionales de ayuda indi-vidual y grupal, como en las formas de apoyo más recien-tes ofrecidas en asociaciones y movimientos reconocidos por la Iglesia”, dijo el Papa Francisco.

El Papa también invito a los jóvenes a escuchar y seguir a Jesús, dejándose transformar por sus palabras, que son espíritu y vida. “Dispongamos nuestros corazo-nes, por tanto, a ser buena tierra, escuchando, recibiendo y viviendo la palabra, y dando así fruto. Cuanto más nos unamos con Jesús a través de la oración, la Sagrada Escri-tura, la Eucaristía y los sacramentos celebrados y vividos en la Iglesia y en fraternidad, mas crecerá en nosotros la alegría de cooperar con Dios en servicio del Reino de misericordia y verdad, de justicia y paz.”

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE Mientras que la población de estudiantes que no son hispanos va bajando

en Estados Unidos de América, el número de estudiantes hispanos va creci-endo en las escuelas primarias y secundarias. Esta es buena noticia para los latinos. La mala noticia es que el porcentaje de estudiantes latinos que aban-donan la escuela y nunca terminan su educación sigue creciendo. De la misma manera, el número de latinos que van a la universidad continúa muy bajo y muchos de los que asisten nunca terminan por falta de recursos, documentos legales o apoyo familiar.

La familia constituye uno de nuestros valores centrales como hispanos. Esta no debe ser una barrera sino un apoyo para que se eduquen nuestros hijos e hijas. Recuerdo bien que a la edad de 6 años mi papá me hacía pasar y re-pasar el abecedario. Durante la primaria, él y mi mamá me corregían la tarea, y cuando no quería ir a la escuela, me hacían ver lo difícil que es la vida cuando no se tiene estudios. Mis padres no terminaron la escuela pero todos sus hijos ahora somos maestros. La educación comienza en el hogar, animen a sus hijos. --Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM, Copyright (c) J. S.
