Reflexión Semanal
Weekly Reflection
Our loving intermediary
Nuestro intermediario amoroso
Today’s readings focus on the importance of the role of
Jesus as the intermediary between God and man. In
the reading from Deuteronomy, Moses reminds the
Israelites that they had requested of the Lord God at
Horeb, “Let us not again hear the voice of the Lord, our
God, nor see this great fire any more, lest we die.” The
people of biblical days lived in true awe and fear of
God. This fear was so profound that they wanted an
intermediary to negotiate their relationship with the Almighty. The Lord answered this request telling Moses,
“This was well said, I will raise up for them a prophet
like you from among their kin, and will put my words
into his mouth; he shall tell them all that I command
him.” God honored this promise and throughout the
years sent many prophets, the last being John the Baptist. Today’s gospel tells of the fulfillment of all the prophets’ foretelling of
the ultimate intermediary, the Messiah. John the Baptist had identified
Jesus as, “the one mightier than I
[who] is coming after me. I am not
worthy to stoop and loosen the thongs
of his sandals.” Mark’s gospel records
the recognition of Jesus by the unclean spirit who cries, “Have you
come to destroy us? I know who you
are—the Holy One of God!” Jesus is
indeed the Holy One of God. He is
the promised Savior, the one who
brings us back to Abba, our Father.
He has taken away the fear. He has
given us the confidence to pray, “Let
your face shine on your servant[s].
Save
[us]
in
your
merciful
love” (Communion Antiphon).
Las lecturas de hoy se enfocan en la importancia del
papel de Jesús como el intermediario entre Dios y el
hombre. En la lectura del libro del Deuteronomio, Moisés les recuerda a los Israelitas lo que le habían pedido
al Señor Dios en el Horeb, “No quiero volver a escuchar
la voz del Señor, mi Dios, ni quiero ver más ese terrible
incendio; no quiero morir.” Las personas de los tiempos bíblicos vivían en verdadera admiración y temor de
Dios. Este temor era tan profundo que deseaban un
intermediario para negociar su relación con el Omnipotente. El Señor les da una respuesta a su petición
cuando le dice a Moisés, “Tienen razón; suscitaré un
profeta de entre sus hermanos, como tú. Pondré mis
palabras en su boca, y les dirá lo que yo le mande.” Dios cumplió su promesa y en el transcurso de
muchos años mando muchos profetas, terminando con
Juan el Bautista. El Evangelio de hoy nos
habla del cumplimiento de lo que todos los
profetas habían anunciado sobre el único
intermediario, el Mesías. Juan el Bautista
ha identificado a Jesús como, “[El] que viene detrás de mí, a quien yo no soy digno de
desatarle la correa de su sandalia.” El
Evangelio de Marcos documenta el reconocimiento de Jesús por el espíritu impuro que
grita, “¿Qué quieres de nosotros, Jesús Nazareno? ¿Has venido a acabar con nosotros? Sé quién eres: el Santo de Dios.” Jesús es verdaderamente el bendito de
Dios. Él es el Salvador prometido, el que
nos regresa a Abba, a nuestro Padre. Él ha
quitado el miedo. Él nos ha dado la confianza de rezar y decir, “Vuelve, Señor tus
ojos a tu siervo y sálvame por tu misericordia.” (Antífona de la Comunión)

Parish News
First Friday
The First Friday Devotions are a set of Catholic devotions to especially recognize the Sacred Heart of Jesus, and through it offer reparations for sins.On these days, a person is to
attend Holy Mass and receive communion. If the need
arises in order to receive communion in a state of grace,
a person should also make use of the Sacrament of Penance before attending Mass. In many Catholic communities the practice of the Holy Hour of meditation during the
Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament during the First Fridays is encouraged. First Friday Masses are offered at
6:30 a.m., 8:00 a.m. and 5:15 p.m. Benediction, Adoration and Confession will follow the 5:15 p.m. Mass.
There is a small reception after the 6:30 a.m. and 8:00
a.m. masses in the rectory garden.
Together in Mission
Our Holy Father Pope Francis has enlivened the Church to renew our spirit of evangelization. Through their ministries and education supported by funds provided by Together in Mission, recipient parishes and schools are doing just that, reaching out to their communities and making the message of God’s love known to those around
them. The funds we collect will directly benefit more than
250,000 of our Catholic brethren, and ensure our parishes and schools remain centers of faith and hope for their
surrounding communities. Archbishop Gomez will soon
be sending letters to those that have generously given to
Together in Mission in the past. If you receive this letter,
we ask you renew your support. May God bless you for
your generous support of this year’s appeal.

Safe Environment
Did You Know?
How to Report Inappropriate or Illegal Content
on the Internet
One of the main reasons that children do
not report the inappropriate content they
find online is fear of punishment from parents. If you let them know that it is not
their fault if they come across an inappropriate site, they will be more willing to
come to you when it happens. If your children ever show
you a site that contains illegal behavior, such as pornographic images of children, contact your Internet service
provider and the CyberTipline at www.cybertipline.com. - 5-

¿Sabía Usted?
Como Reportar Contenido Inadecuado o Ilegal
en el Internet
Una de las razones principales que los niños no divulgan
el contenido inadecuado que encuentran en Internet es
por miedo al castigo de los padres. Si les deja saber que
no es culpa de ellos si atraviesan por un sitio de Internet
inapropiado, estarán más dispuestos a venir a usted
cuando esto pase. Si sus hijos le muestran un sitio de
Internet que contiene materia ilegal, como imágenes
pornográficas de niños, póngase en contacto con su
proveedor de servicios de Internet y la CyberTipline en
www.cybertipline.com.
