Pastor’s Note
Something that is un- deniable about the circumstances of Cath- olic parish life is the amount of people who
have left the Church. It is doubly true of our own parish. We all know some- one, whether a friend or a family mem- ber, who grew up Catholic but is no longer practicing, or is practicing at a different Catholic parish. A lot of par- ents will try to place the blame on themselves and ask, “What did I do wrong?” But the truth is that this isn’t the fault of any one individual. Sys- temic failure requires whole systems to fail. Nevertheless, we are never with- out hope because God is the one in charge; this is His Church and He’s al- ways working. Moreover, we can al- ways shift our strategies to follow Him and meet the needs of the current situ- ation. This is the reason why I asked Sr. Maria to shift from being the CCD Coordinator into her new role as the Works of Mercy Ambassador. The nor- mal practice for the Catholic Church for too long has been to wait for people to come to it. But we need to go out and search for those who aren’t here, and Sr. Maria has a lot of experience doing exactly that. Through hospital and home visits, comforting the grieving, finding food for the hungry, building relationships with the homeless, wel- coming new arrivals to our area, and praying with those in jails, Sr. Maria is uniquely equipped to find the people who are not here. Today as a parish we are thanking Sister for all the work she has done in CCD for our youth and catechists. We’re also praying that she can guide us all to go out and find the lost sheep. God bless you Sr. Maria and thank you for your willingness to take on this new role!
Algo que es innegable sobre las cir- cunstancias de la vida parroquial católi-
ca es la cantidad de personas que han abandonado la Iglesia. Es doblemente cierto de nuestra propia parro- quia. Todos conocemos a alguien, ya sea un amigo o un miembro de la fami- lia, que creció católico pero ya no está practicando, o está practicando en una parroquia católica diferente. Muchos padres tratarán de echarse la culpa a sí mismos y preguntarán: "¿Qué hice mal?" Pero la verdad es que esto no es culpa de ningún individuo. El fracaso sistémico requiere que sistemas ente- ros fallen. Sin embargo, nunca esta- mos sin esperanza porque Dios es el que está a cargo; esta es Su Iglesia y Él siempre está trabajando. Además, siempre podemos cambiar nuestras estrategias para seguirlo y satisfacer las necesidades de la situación ac- tual. Esta es la razón por la que le pedí a Sor María que pasara de ser la Coor- dinadora de la CLD a su nuevo rol como Embajadora de Obras de Misericor- dia. La práctica normal para la Iglesia Católica durante demasiado tiempo ha sido esperar a que la gente venga a ella. Pero tenemos que salir y buscar a los que no están aquí, y Sor María tiene mucha experiencia haciendo exacta- mente eso. A través de visitas al hospi- tal y al hogar, consolando a los afligi- dos, encontrando comida para los hambrientos, construyendo relaciones con las personas sin hogar, dando la bienvenida a los recién llegados a nuestra área y orando con aquellos en las cárceles, Sor María está equipada de manera única para encontrar a las personas que no están aquí. Hoy como parroquia estamos agradeciendo a la hermana por todo el trabajo que ha hecho en CCD para nuestros jóvenes y catequistas. También estamos orando para que ella pueda guiarnos a todos a salir y encontrar a las ovejas perdi- das. ¡Dios los bendiga Sor María y gra- cias por su disposición a asumir este nuevo rol!

Reflection (Reflexin) July 11, 2021
Jesus wants every believer to believe what he believed, live as he lived, love as he loved and serve as he served. This is what the Gospel is calling us to do. We are called by Jesus to engage in God’s mission. A call to follow him and a willingness to obey. That is it. No qualification needed. He did not call the 12 disciples because they were quali- fied, rather he qualified the 12 , just as he will with us. And we shouldn’t be surprised if our calling comes with rejection or suffer- ing, afterall look at how he was rejected and suffered , and he was JESUS. However , we are accountable only for our faithfulness to engage in God’s mission while trusting God to produce the results. Let us follow him with a willing and obedient heart.
Jesús quiere que cada creyente crea lo que creía, viva como vivió, ame como amó y sirva como sirvió. Esto es lo que el Evange- lio nos está llamando a hacer. Somos llama- dos por Jesús a participar en la misión de Dios. Una llamada a seguirlo y la voluntad de obedecer. Eso es todo . No se necesita calificación. No llamó a los 12 discípulos porque estaban calificados, sino que calificó a los 12, tal como lo hará con nosotros. Y no deberíamos sorprendernos si nuestro lla- mado viene con rechazo o sufrimiento, des- pués de todo mira cómo fue rechazado y sufrió, y él era JESÚS. Sin embargo, somos responsables sólo de nuestra fidelidad para participar en la misión de Dios, mientras que confiamos en Dios para producir los resultados. Sigamos con un corazón dis- puesto y obediente.
