Oct 3, 2021 3 Our Lady of the Holy Family

Flesh of My Flesh�

�

God did a wonderful job in creating things. He did it with a Big

Bang, out of which came the universe and galaxies, and … well,

whatever else. So, God is a great artist. Let’s look.�

�

For all eternity the three persons in God have loved each other

so much that they are one. When God wanted to create a living

being that could share in this inmost characteristic, he knew it

would be called “deep love.” But unfortunately, in the sequence

of creation, God made a mistake. The First Reading tells us that

he created the male first. Everyone knows that a man, left on his

own, will likely be helpless. He needs company, needs

partnership, correction, and sometimes just a lot of forgiveness.

For almost all men, this means being with, or at least open to,

the creature called woman.�

�

But there were no creatures called women in existence. Since

God is a relationship of three persons to the point of forming

one being, maybe God thought that adding another creature

would make the same thing possible for created beings. First

experiments: he took scoops of earth and made …various wild

animals and various birds of the air, and he brought them to the

man to see what he would call them; whatever the man called

each of them would be its name. (First Reading)�

�

But none of the wild animals proved to be the suitable partner

for the man. So next, God made a move that was actually quite

smart. Instead of trying to form a partner out of the earth for the

man, as he had with the animals, he spread a deep sleep over the

man and removed a rib from him. He fashioned this into a

woman. This new gambit worked. There was a great intimacy

between the man and the woman. She was, as the man put it

clumsily, “bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh!” The two

were made out of the same stuff�how much closer can you

get?�

�

Marriage came next. As the First Reading puts it, “That is why a

man leaves his father and mother and clings to his wife, and the

two of them become one flesh.” As centuries went by, millennia

really, there came a popular saying among husbands. Women!

You can’t live with them and you can’t live without them! I

cannot repeat here what women say, but it often starts out with,

“MEN! … ” and a list of particulars follows.�

�

Sadly, divorce made its entrance. It had been around for

centuries by the time the Pharisees came to Jesus with the

following argument: “Moses permitted a husband to write a bill

of divorce and dismiss [his wife]” (Gospel). Jesus reminded

them sternly of why God had made both man and woman, not

just the one, not just the other. He wanted them to share an

intimate relationship that would be like the Trinity. He stated it

this way: “What God has joined together, no human must

separate.”�

�

So, if today you find yourself divorced, or alone, or left without

your beloved because of death, or if your mate and you do not

get along, what can you do? Do everything you can. Like the

rest of us, you are trying to mirror in your life the loving unity

of the Trinity. Pray and do it as you are able.�

� John Foley, SJ�

�

Hueso de mis huesos y carne de mi carne�

Dios hizo maravillas en la creación. Tal vez a través del Big

Bang, dando así origen al universo y las galaxias, y ... pues, lo

que fuera. Lo hizo.�

�

Ante todo, Dios quería crear un ser vivo que pudiera compartir

la característica principal de la Trinidad, el amor profundo. Para

toda la eternidad, las tres personas dentro de Dios se habían

amado tan intensamente que eran una sola.

Desafortunadamente, Dios cometió un error en la secuencia de

su creación. Sí. Creó primero al varón. (Primera Lectura) Bien

se sabe que un varón, solito, será casi incapaz de valerse por sí

mismo. Necesita compañía, alguien para guiarlo, y a veces solo

mucho perdón. Para casi todos los hombres, esto significa la

presencia de la mujer.�

�

Pero las mujeres no existían. Dios llegó a entender esto. Ya que

la Trinidad es una relación entre tres personas que forman un

solo ser, tal vez Dios pensaba que la presencia de cualquier otra

criatura haría posible lo mismo para Adán.�

�

Así que modeló de arcilla... todas las bestias del campo y todos

los pájaros del cielo, y se los presentó al hombre para ver qué

nombre les ponía; Y cada ser vivo llevaría el nombre que el

hombre le pusiera. (Primera Lectura) La lectura sigue, “pero no

se encontraba ninguno como él, que le ayudase.” Desde luego

que no.�

Entonces Dios hizo algo muy sagaz. En lugar de tratar de

modelar de la Tierra una compañera para el hombre, así como lo

había hecho con los animales, dejó caer sobre el hombre un

letargo y le sacó una costilla. Y de esa costilla hizo una mujer.�

�

Esta estrategia sí funcionó. Había una gran intimidad entre el

varón y la mujer. Ella era, como decía torpemente el hombre,

“hueso de mis huesos y carne de mi carne.” Dicho en otras

palabras, los dos fueron formados de la misma arcilla�no

podían ser más parecidos.�

Luego vino el matrimonio. Como dice la Primera Lectura, “ Por

eso abandonará el hombre a su padre y a su madre, se unirá a su

mujer y serán los dos una sola carne.”

�

Pasaron siglos, milenios, y entre los varones surgió un dicho

popular: “¡Las mujeres! No se puede vivir ni con ellas ni sin

ellas.” No puedo repetir aquí lo que dicen las mujeres de los

varones, pero suele empezar así: “¡LOS HOMBRES!...y sigue

una lista de detalles.�

�

Tristemente, el divorcio también llegó. Ya había existido hacía

siglos cuando los Fariseos se presentaron ante Jesús para

argumentar lo siguiente: “Moisés permitió divorciarse dándole a

la mujer una acta de repudio.” (Evangelio) Jesús les recordó de

por qué Dios había formado al varón y a la mujer también, a los

dos. Quería que compartieran una relación íntima, parecida a la

de la Trinidad. “Lo que Dios ha unido que no lo separe el

hombre.”�

�

¿Y que pasa si tú hoy te encuentras divorciado, o solo, o privado

de tu ser querido por la muerte? ¿Qué pasa si tú y tu pareja no se

llevan bien? Haz todo lo que puedas. Al igual que todos

nosotros tú intentas reflejar en tu vida la unión amorosa de la

Trinidad. Y tal vez Dios tiene para ti otro camino en la vida. �

OLHF Food Pantry News:�

�

Our parish food pantry has been open and

operating since the beginning of July. Clients

are able to come and select their own food from

a wide selection of items which include canned goods, fresh

and frozen foods. These items are available to pantry clients

at no cost.�

�

The food pantry is open from 1:30p to 3:30p each Friday. It

located off the parking lot in the space between the church

building and the rectory. Access is through the rear entry to

the church basement just north of the elevator lobby.�

Anyone who wishes can drop of non�perishable food items at

the back of church or at the rectory at any time. The Shrine of

Our Lady of Pompei runs a monthly food drive. The food

that they collect comes to our food pantry. We will be

running our annual food drive as we get closer to

Thanksgiving. This will help us.�

�

If you shop at a warehouse club, like Costco, you could

consider buying an ‘extra’ package of something to donate.

The GCFD charges our pantry for the food that we receive.

The cost is covered by donations and is part of our parish

budget. Any food items that are donated help defray our

operating costs.�

�

You can also volunteer at the GCFD to help repack bulk

items for distribution. When you sign up, just let them know

that your time will benefit our food pantry. It will generate a

credit to help defray our food costs. The GCFD website will

take you through the sign�up process. There are volunteer

times during the week and on Saturdays. If your business

organizes volunteer opportunities, you could suggest the

GCFD as an option. The time invested could also generate

credit for our pantry.�

�

The most important thing that anyone can do to help us

succeed is to spread the word about our food pantry. Please

encourage people who might benefit to check us out.�
