OUR PASTOR ’S PAGE
The Call to Christian Perfection
Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
Nobody is perfect, right? Some of us may be “perfectionists,” but all of us realize that we are far from perfect. However, at the end of the gospel reading this Sunday, Jesus tells us, “So be perfect, just as your heavenly Father is perfect (Matthew 5:48). How could our Lord possibly be asking us to be something that is impossible? Only God is perfect, right? It is important to understand Jesus’ command in light of the Old Covenant. Being perfect does not mean being without defect; it means that our moral righteousness must surpass that of the Mosaic Law. In the first reading from today, we hear “Be holy, for I, the LORD, your God, am holy” (Leviticus 19:2). Jesus is taking this com-mand to a whole new level: Our measure of holiness, our measure of perfection, must be measured against God’s infinite holiness and infinite perfection. Jesus gives us three ways of how to concrete-ly live out this perfection: Do not retaliate when injured; go “the extra mile” in our work; and love our enemies.
Let us look first at how to go “above and beyond” the call of duty. At our jobs (and even in our volunteer work), we sometimes have to do things we do not like. Yet, when we do these things joy-fully, we are perfecting our work — we find meaning in it and we do it for God. It is also a great wit-ness to others of how Jesus makes all the difference – even at work. However, the two other teach-ings in today’s gospel are not as easy to live concretely. Firstly, Jesus is not preaching passivism! When He says to not retaliate, He is not saying we should not defend ourselves. The Church has always taught that it is just to defend ourselves as long as we do not inflict disproportionate damage. Rather, He is telling us that when our reputation is attacked, we do not stoop to that level of nasti-ness. All of us here at some point have probably been the object of gossip, detraction, or misunder-standing. It is painful, but as our parents tell us growing up: “‘Two wrongs’ don’t make a ‘right.’” Therefore, we turn the other cheek, and we pray for those who hurt us.
Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.” Notice: Our Lord does not say “‘enemy is a bad word.” He says to love our enemies, which means He knows we all have them. There are people in all of our lives that we cannot stand. We do not have to “hang out” with them or drink beer with them, but we have to love them. This is what makes the Christian different from eve-rybody else. As children of our heavenly Father, we actually love those who hate us. It is to be per-fect like God, because He loves even those who hate Him. We cannot do it alone, though; we need His grace. That is why we pray, and that is why we go to Mass.
P.S. Today is Commitment Weekend across the Diocese of Tyler. If you have not already re-
turned your pledge or gift please do so today. Every gift is important and we thank you in ad-
vance for your generous support to the 2017 Bishop’s Annual Appeal.
Yours in Christ,
Fr. Lowry

PÁGINA DE NUESTRO PASTOR
La Llamada a la Perfección Cristiana Queridos hermanos y hermanas en Cristo, Nadie es perfecto ¿cierto? Algunos de nosotros podemos ser “perfeccionistas,” pero todos re-conocemos que estamos lejos de ser perfectos. Sin embargo, al final de la lectura del evangelio de este Domingo, Jesús nos dice, “Por su parte, sean ustedes perfectos como es perfecto el Padre de ustedes que está en el Cielo” (Mateo 5:48). ¿Cómo es posible que nuestro Señor nos pida ser algo que es imposible? Solamente Dios es perfecto ¿no es así? Es importante entender el mandato de Jesús a la luz del Antiguo Testamento. Ser perfecto no significa no tener defectos; significa que nuestra rectitud moral debe sobrepasar la de la Ley Mosaica. En la primera lectura de hoy oímos decir “Sean Santos, porque yo, YAVÉ, Dios de ustedes, soy Santo” (Levítico 19:2). Jesús está ele-vando este mandato a un nivel completamente nuevo: Nuestra medida de santidad, nuestra medi-da de perfección, debe medirse comparándola a la infinita santidad y a la infinita perfección de Dios. Jesús nos indica tres maneras concretas de vivir esta perfección: No desquitarnos cuando nos ofenden; ir “la extra milla” en nuestro trabajo; y amar a nuestros enemigos. Veamos primero cómo ir “por encima y más allá” del llamado del deber. En nuestros trabajos (y aún en nuestro trabajo voluntario), a veces tenemos que hacer cosas que no nos gustan. Sin em-bargo, cuando hacemos esas cosas con alegría, estamos perfeccionando nuestra labor — encon-tramos sentido a lo que hacemos y lo hacemos por Dios. Es también un gran testimonio para los demás de cómo Jesús hace toda la diferencia – aún en nuestro trabajo. Sin embargo, las otras dos enseñanzas en el evangelio de hoy no son tan fáciles de vivir concretamente. Primeramente, Je-sús no está predicando pasivismo! Cuando Él nos dice que no nos desquitemos, Él no nos está diciendo que no nos debemos defender. La Iglesia siempre ha enseñando que es justo defender-nos mientras no causemos daño desproporcionado. Más bien, Él nos está diciendo que cuando nuestra reputación es atacada, no nos rebajemos a ese nivel de suciedad. Todos los aquí presen-tes en algún momento probablemente hemos sido objeto de murmuración, detracción, o malenten-dido. Es doloroso, pero como nos decían nuestros padres cuando crecíamos: “‘Dos mentiras no hacen una verdad”. De modo que volvamos la otra mejilla, y oremos por los que nos ofenden. “Ama a tus enemigos y ora por quienes te persiguen.” Noten: Nuestro Señor no dice que “‘enemigo es una mala palabra.” Él dice que amemos a nuestros enemigos, lo que significa que Él sabe que todos los tenemos. Hay personas en nuestras vidas a las que no podemos soportar. No tenemos que “andar” con ellas o tomar cerveza con ellas, pero tenemos que amarlas. Esto es lo que hace al Cristiano distinto a todos los demás. Como hijos de nuestro Padre celestial, realmente amamos a quienes nos odian. Eso es ser perfectos como Dios, porque Él ama aún a quienes lo odian a Él. Pero no podemos hacerlo solos; necesitamos Su gracia. Por eso oramos, y por eso asistimos la Misa.
P.D. Hoy es el Compromiso de fin de semana en toda la Diócesis de Tyler. Si aún no ha de-
vuelto su regalo por favor, hágalo hoy. Cada regalo es importante y le damos gracias por su ge-
neroso apoyo a La Promesa al Obispo.
Suyos en Cristo,

Saint Michael, the Archangel, defend us in battle; be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou, O prince of the heavenly host, by the power of
God, cast into Hell, Satan and all the evil spirits, who prowl about the world, seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.
San Miguel Arcángel, defiéndenos en la batalla. Sé nuestro amparo contra las perversidad y asechanzas del
demonio. Reprímale Dios, pedimos suplicantes, y tu príncipe de la milicia celestial arroja al infierno con el divino poder a Satanás y a los otros espíritus malignos que andan dispersos por el mundo para la perdición de
