A MESSAGE FROM OUR PASTOR

Dear Holy Apostles Parish Family,

Summer is flying by quickly, so I hope you

are getting in some fun and relaxation.

It is important to give ourselves a period of

rest.

This weekend our new Youth and Young

Adult Coordinator, Emily Stuckey will be

introducing herself. She is a wonderful

young woman that we are grateful to have

join us. I am hoping that this month she

gets a chance to meet the people involved

in these ministries as we put our plan into

action in the fall. Now that I am an “older

gentleman” I realized that when I ate lunch

with Emily and Aaron, if I add their ages

together it still is less than my age. It is

great to now have someone on our staff

from each decade. It keeps us fresh and

balanced. I know you will enjoy Emily.

This week is vacation bible school. I hope

everyone enjoys themselves. I will miss

the first three days, because I will be at a

conference on alcoholism in the clergy.

I go every year to keep current in helping

our priests get help when they need it.

Have a Blessed Week! Father Paul

Papa Francisco sobre el Buen Samaritano Hoy reflexionamos sobre la parábola del buen samari-

tano Un doctor de la Ley pone a prueba a Jesús con esta

pregunta: «Maestro, ¿qué tengo que hacer para heredar

la Vida eterna?» Jesús le pide dar a él mismo la

respuesta, y él lo da perfectamente: «Amarás al Señor, tu

Dios, con todo tu corazón, con toda tu alma, con todas

tus fuerzas y con todo tu espíritu, y a tu prójimo como a

ti mismo» Jesús entonces concluye: «obra así y alcanza-

rás la vida».

Entonces aquel hombre pone otra pregunta, que se hace

muy preciosa para nosotros: « ¿Y quién es mi prójimo?»,

y presupone: “¿mis parientes? ¿Mis connacionales?

¿Aquellos de mi misma religión?...”. En fin, quiere una

regla clara que le permita clasificar a los demás en

“prójimo” y “no prójimo”, en aquellos que pueden con-

vertirse en prójimos y en aquellos que no pueden

hacerse prójimos.

Y Jesús responde con una parábola, que pone en escena

a un sacerdote, a un levita y un samaritano. Los dos pri-

meros son figuras relacionadas con el culto del templo;

el tercero es un judío cismático (alejado, separada), con-

siderado como un extranjero, pagano e impuro, es decir

el samaritano. En el camino de Jerusalén a Jericó el sac-

erdote y el levita se encuentran con un hombre moribun-

do, que los ladrones han asaltado, robado y abandonado.

La Ley del Señor en situaciones símiles preveía la ob-

ligación de socorrerlo, pero ambos pasan de largo sin

detenerse. Tenían prisa. El sacerdote, tal vez, ha mirado

el reloj y ha dicho: “pero, llegare tarde a la Misa…Debo

decir la Misa”. Y el otro ha dicho: “pero, no sé si la Ley

me lo permite, porque hay sangre ahí y yo quedare impu-

ro…” Van por otro camino y no se acercan. Y aquí la pa-

rábola nos ofrece una primera enseñanza: no es au-

tomático que quien frecuenta la casa de Dios y conoce

su misericordia sepa amar al prójimo. ¡No es automáti-

co! Tú puedes conocer toda la Biblia, tú puedes conocer

todas las normas litúrgicas, tú puedes conocer toda la

teología, pero del conocer no es automático el amar: el

amar tiene otro camino, el amor tiene otro camino. Con

inteligencia, pero con algo más…El sacerdote y el levita

ven, pero ignoran; miran, pero no proveen. Ni siquiera

existe un verdadero culto si ello no se traduce en ser-

vicio al prójimo.

No lo olvidemos jamás: ante el sufrimiento de tanta gen-

te agotada por el hambre, por la violencia y la injusticia,

no podemos permanecer como espectadores. ¡Ignorar el

sufrimiento del hombre, ¿qué cosa significa? Significa

ignorar a Dios! Si yo no me acerco a aquel hombre, a

aquella mujer, a aquel niño, a aquel anciano o aquella

anciana que sufre, no me acerco a Dios.

Estamos todos llamados a recorrer el mismo camino del

buen samaritano, que es la figura de Cristo: Jesús se

inclinó sobre nosotros, se ha hecho nuestro siervo, y así

nos ha salvado, para que también nosotros podamos

amarnos como Él nos ha amado, del mismo modo. ¡Gracias!
