GOD IS WITH US The book of Wisdom tells us that the spirit of God is in all things. What a wonderful thought, and what a wonderful image to keep in front of us as we travel down life’s road. For if the path is re-vealed in the treading, it’s good to know that God is with us—and all around us—every step of the way. But Paul knows that this divine presence is not timid. Instead, God calls out to us, and Paul prays that we, along with the Thessalonians, might be made worthy of that call. And who knows more about God’s call than Zacchaeus, the tax collector? Jesus called him out of a tree, for goodness’ sake. Or perhaps more correctly, as we reflect upon the end of today’s Gospel reading, for heaven’s sake. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
TODAY’S READINGS First Reading — LORD, you love all things that exist (Wisdom 11:22 — 12:2). Psalm — I will praise your name forever, my king and my God (Psalm 145). Second Reading — May the name of Christ be glorified in you and you in him (2 Thessalonians 1:11 — 2:2). Gospel — Zacchaeus, a tax collector, considered to be a sinner, is converted to the Lord (Luke 19:1-10). NEW BEGINNING That day which you fear as being the end of all things is the birthday of your eternity. —Seneca
Thirty-first Sunday in Ordinary Time October 30, 2016 The LORD lifts up all who are falling and raises up all who are bowed down. — Psalm 145:14
TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION The recent “October count” tracking the statis-tics of participation at Sunday Mass calls to mind the situations of churches where it is difficult or im-possible for Catholics to worship freely. This is es-pecially striking in English Catholic history, as free-dom of worship was systematically dismantled at the time of the Reformation. It seems that most Eng-lish people retained deeply Catholic sympathies throughout the period of religious upheaval. Catho-lics who refused to participate in the public worship of the Church of England were called “recusants,” and beginning with the reign of Elizabeth I, they were subject to strict penalties. Recusant literally means “a person refusing to obey a command.” Most of those laws were in force until the early 1800s, and Catholics were not entirely emancipated from the duty of Anglican worship until 1829. Recusants paid heavy fines for not attending the state church. Holding on to Catholic faith was therefore a luxury of the very rich, who maintained private chapels, and sent their daughters and sons to English convents and monastery schools on the continent. Remarkably, the first among all British peers, the Dukes of Norfolk, the hereditary Earls Marshal of England, have never given up their Catholic faith. Many of these wealthy recusant families founded the colony of Maryland, and later many members of the old Catholic families contin-ued on to the Kentucky frontier in search of greater religious freedom. —Rev.

DIOS ESTÁ CON NOSOTROS El libro de la Sabiduría nos dice que el Espíritu de Dios está en todas las cosas. ¡Qué maravilloso pensamiento! ¡Qué maravillosa imagen para tener-la frente a nosotros mientras vamos por el camino de la vida! Si el camino se revela al andar, es bue-no saber que Dios está con nosotros –y alrededor de nosotros– a cada paso. Pero Pablo sabe que esta divina presencia no es tímida. En vez de eso, Dios nos llama, y Pablo rue-ga que nosotros, junto con los tesalonicenses, nos hagamos dignos de ese llamado. ¿Y quién sabe más acerca del llamado de Dios que Zaqueo, el re-caudador de impuestos? Todos sabemos que Jesús lo llamó que bajara nada menos que de un árbol, por su bien. Tal vez más correctamente, al reflexio-nar en el final de la lectura del Evangelio de hoy, podríamos decir que para bien del cielo. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
LECTURAS DE HOY Primera lectura — Señor, tú amas todo cuanto existe (Sabiduría 11:22 — 12:2). Salmo — Bendeciré al Señor eternamente (Salmo 145 [144]). Segunda lectura — Oramos siempre por ustedes para que el nombre de nuestro Señor Jesucristo se glorifique en ustedes y ustedes en él (2 Tesaloni-censes 1:11 — 2:2). Evangelio — Zaqueo, cobrador de impuestos, con-siderado socialmente como pecador, se convierte al Señor (Lucas 19:1-10). NUEVO EMPEZAR El día que temas que será el fin de todas las cosas es tu nacimiento a la eternidad. —Séneca
Trigésimo Primer Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario 30 de octubre de 2016 El Señor sostiene a los que van a caer, endereza a los que ya se doblan. — Salmo 145 (144):14
TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE El 31 de octubre muchos se visten de mons-truos y al día siguiente, los cristianos celebramos a todos los santos. Es interesante el contraste entre los dos días. Un día recordamos brujas y zombis y al siguiente conmemoramos vírgenes y mártires, religiosos y laicos comprometidos todos con una cosa en común: su amor a Dios, un amor que se hace carne en obras de caridad y justicia. La mayoría de los santos se hicieron santos gra-cias a los monstruos que los rodeaban. Los prime-ros mártires cristianos murieron a mano de los monstruos romanos, muchos religiosos medievales se refugiaban en Dios para protegerse de los mons-truos internos que los tentaban con sexo, dinero y poder. Y en América muchos como Manuel Chin Sooj se hicieron testigos de la justicia en manos de los monstruos de gobiernos injustos. Los monstruos, en fin no pueden vencer a los santos por eso en Guatemala el martirio de Manuel Chin Sooj, animó a los obispos guatemaltecos a unirse con la carta “El clamor de la tierra” a los esfuerzos de pobres en búsqueda de tierra y digni-dad humana. —Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM, Copyright © J.
