(Continued on page 4)

Dear Parishioners,We, the members of the St. Ignatius Racial Justice Subcom-

mittee, feel called to increase our parish’s attention to the prob-lem of racism in our society. We do so because at the core of our shared faith is a belief that every person is made in the image and likeness of God. Each individual possesses the dignity of a human person, and all people are interconnected as part of one human family, God’s family. We recognize that there are many types of injustice in our society that need to be addressed; however, racism is a particularly persistent wound to human dignity and to the unity of God’s family. The U.S. Council of Catholic Bishops has called on American Catholics to pay par-ticular attention to the sin of racism. We are responding to this call, which is powerfully made in the Bishops’ 2018 document, Open Wide Our Hearts: The Enduring Call to Love – A Pastoral Letter Against Racism.

Our goal for the coming months is to deep-en our collective understanding about racism, foster reconciliation, and publicly witness to the Church’s commitment to ending racism. We plan to pursue several types of activities that will create opportunities for us to do so:

1. Regular entries in the parish bulletin that educate us about racism and our Church’s teaching, and offer us resources for respond-ing as Catholics.

2. Meetings to which all are invited in which we will hear from speakers, watch a presentation, or read a brief article by someone who has thought deeply about racism and then discuss our reactions.

Our first meeting will take place from 4:00 to 5:15 p.m. on Sunday, November 10. We will listen to and discuss an excerpt from a speech given by Fr. Bryan Massingale, S.J., one of the world’s leading Catholic social ethicists and scholars of Afri-can-American theological ethics, and racial justice.

Later in the year we will have an opportunity to hear from Debby Irving, racial justice educator and writer, author of the book Waking Up White. Irving’s appearance will be sponsored in partnership with BC’s Thea Bowman AHANA and Inter-cultural Center, and will take place on Saturday, February 8th from 9 a.m. – 12 p.m., followed by lunch.

3. Opportunities to demonstrate our parish community’s commitment to “Open Wide Our Hearts” through worship, song, prayer and other visible displays (such as banners with messages from the Bishops’ letter), including celebration of Martin Luther King Day, January 20, 2020.

Estimados Feligreses: Nosotros, los miembros de la Comisión de Justicia Racial

nos sentimos llamados a aumentar la atención de nuestra parro-quia al problema del racismo en nuestra sociedad. Lo hacemos porque en el centro de nuestra fe compartida está a creencia de que cada persona es hecha a imagen y semejanza de Dios. Cada individuo posee la dignidad de ser un humano, y toda la gente está interconectada como parte de la familia humana, la famil-ia de Dios. Reconocemos que hay muchos tipos de injusticias en nuestra sociedad que necesitan ser abordados; sin embar-

go, el racismo es una herida particularmente persistente en la dignidad humana y en la unidad de la familia de Dios. El Concilio Es-tadounidense de Obispos Católicos ha hecho un llamado a los feligreses a prestar atención al pecado del racismo. Estamos respondien-do a este llamado, poderosamente hecho en el documento de los Obispos en 2018 Abran Bien sus Corazones: el Llamado Duradero a Amar – Una Carta Pastoral Contra el Racismo.

Nuestro objetivo para los próximos meses es profundizar nuestro entendimiento col-ectivo sobre el racismo, fomentar la recon-ciliación y ser testigos del compromiso de la Iglesia de acabar con él. Pensamos hacer diversos tipos de actividades que crearán nos oportunidades de hacerlo:

1. Escritos de forma regular en el boletín parroquial que nos eduquen sobre el racismo

y las enseñanzas de nuestra Iglesia, ofreciéndonos recursos para responder como católicos.

2. Encuentros donde todos son invitados en los que es-cucharemos a ponentes, ver una presentación o leer artículos breves de personas que han pensando profundamente sobre este tema, para luego discutir nuestras reacciones.

Nuestro primer encuentro será el domingo 10 de noviem-bre, de 4:00 a 5:15. Escucharemos y discutiremos un extracto de un discurso dado por el P. Bryan Massingale S.J., uno de los líderes católicos mundiales en ética social y profesor de ética teológica y justicia Racial.

El año que viene tendremos la oportunidad de escuchar a Debby Irving, educadora de justicia racial, escritora, autora del libro Levantándose Blanco. La participación de Irving estará patrocinada en sociedad con el Centro Intercultural y Thea Bowman AHANA en Boston College. El evento tendrá lugar el sábado 8 de febrero de 9:00 a 12:00, seguido de un almuerzo.

3. Oportunidades de demostrarle a la comunidad parroquial nuestro compromiso de “Abrir Bien Nuestros Corazones” a

We recognize that conversations about racism can be diffi-cult and painful, and that members of the parish enter them with different experiences and expectations. We have all been touched by racism, albeit in very different ways. We are com-mitted to providing a variety of opportunities to learn from each other in authentic encounters, and we hope to have con-versations that will help us to love better, as Jesus told us to do.

Reconocemos que conversaciones sobre el racismo pueden ser difíciles y dolorosas, y que hay feligreses que entran en el-las con diferentes experiencias y expectativas. Todos hemos sido tocados por él, aunque ha sido de diversas formas. Es-tamos comprometidos en proveer una variedad de oportuni-dades de aprender de unos y otros en encuentros auténticos, y esperamos tener conversaciones que nos ayuden a amar mejor, tal como Cristo nos enseñó.

“El fariseo, erguido, oraba así: ’Dios mío, te doy gracias porque no soy…como ese publicano’.” Lucas 18: 11.

¿Será que a veces yo me comporto como el Fariseo cuando me com-paro a inmigrantes mas recientes, particularmente aquellos quienes

viven en pobreza?Scripture passage to pray about during the week:

”A Pharisee took up his position and spoke this prayer, ‘O God, I thank you that I am not … like this tax collector’.” Luke 18: 11 .

Might I sometimes be like the Pharisee when I compare myself to more recent immigrants, particularly those who live in poverty?

‘isolated conscience’.
