2 Page 2 Eleventh Sunday in Ordinary Time June 14, 2015 They that are planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God. -Psalm 92:14 ALL IS GRACE On Sundays in Ordinary Time, the Old Testament reading is selected for the light it sheds on the day s Gospel. Today, Ezekiel sees God lifting up the lowly tree and making the withered tree bloom. So in the second paraable of today s Gospel, Jesus encourages us by promising that, as fragile seeds grow into an abundant harvest, and the tiny mustard seed into a hearty plant, so God will grow the kingdom from small beginnings to an instrument of salvation for all. In the first parable, the land yields fruit of its own accord (Mark 4:28). Not only is the initiative God s, but the parable teaches that the seed s growth, though invisible at first, is actually unstoppable! To be sure, those who depend on the impressive or dramatic in order to be convinced or encouraged will be disappointed in the slow unfolding of the kingdom that Jesus announces. But for those who do accept the kingdom, all is grace, and that grace is certain. INVITATION! OUR LADY OF PERPETUAL HELP NOVENA 150 Year ago Pope Pius IX asked the Redemptorists to make the icon of Our Lady of Perpetual Help known to the world. This icon is very important to the Redemptorists and million of others who have prayed to Mary over the centuries. With this in mind we would like to celebrate this icon. On the evenings of June 24, 25, 26 we will pray the Perpetual Help prayers together with a short homily from Fr. Steve Benden. We hope you will reserve your calendar for these dates. Again, this is a very important time as we remember all of the miracles that have taken place through God s grace through Our Blessed Lady. May God be praised.

For more information please visit Phone: TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION A wedding celebrated in the Eastern Church has a form that was fixed a thousand years ago. In the West, our story is more complicated by constant change and variation. As the world s structures tottered in the ninth century, bishops and priests stepped into the void left by collapsing civil structures. For the first time, marriage was referred to as a sacrament, and wedding ceremonies were to be in public (assuring the free consent of the bride) after an investigation of the couple by a priest. The custom of the blessing of the bridal room diminished, and was finally forbidden in 1012 by the Council of Rouen, although it continued for centuries. In the diocese of Perigueux in France, a ritual from 1827 had the parish priest clad in surplice and stole sprinkling the bridal couple as they stood modestly in their pajamas by the wedding bed. Next the bed and all those present were sprinkled, too! That s a tradition that few Americans, either the betrothed or the clergy, are ready to revive!

4 Page 4 Undécimo Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario 14 de Junio, 2015 Plantados en la casa del Señor, en medio de sus atrios los justos darán flores - Salmo 92 (91):14 TODO ES GRACIA Durante los domingos del Tiempo Ordinario, la lectura del Antiguo Testamento se relaciona con el tema del Evangelio de ese domingo. Hoy Ezequiel ve a Dios elevar los árboles pequeños y florecer los árboles secos. Y en las parábolas del Evangelio de hoy, Jesús nos anima poniendo como ejemplos el fruto abundante que puede dar una semilla y que la semilla tan pequeña de mostaza crece y se convierte en uno de los arbustos más grandes, y así es Dios quien hace crecer el Reino de un pequeño comienzo a un instrumento de salvación para todos. En la primera parábola la tierra por sí sola produce el fruto (Marcos 4:28). Además de la iniciativa de Dios, la parábola enseña que el crecimiento de la semilla, al principio invisible, no se puede detener. Para estar seguros, las personas que dependen de lo que impresiona o llama fuertemente la atención para estar convencidas o animadas pues van a estar decepcionadas en lo despacio que se hace realidad el reino que Jesús anunció. Pero para quienes aceptan el reino, todo es gracia y la gracia es verdadera. Aún cuando la segunda lectura no se relaciona ni con la primera ni con el Evangelio durante estos domingos; hay que considerar el mensaje que tiene la de hoy. San Pablo afirma que en nuestro camino de fe confiamos en Dios y esto debe hacernos un pueblo de valor indomable y fe inquebrantable. Y al mismo tiempo Pablo nos advierte que la fe también debe hacernos consientes de nuestra responsabilidad de hacer el bien REGISTRACION La Escuela Holy Ghost está aceptando nuevos estudiantes para el año escolar Puede recoger su forma de registración de las 8:30 am a las 1:30 pm en la oficina de la escuela de Lunes a Viernes.
