September and Re-Connecting Walking a pretty Black Lab around

Charlestown several days a week gives me the wonderful opportunity to greet lots of people. I only wish I could re-member all of the names! And this Sep-tember I hear people making comments like, “Father, we have been away from church for a while and we want to come back”. Obviously I am happy to welcome folks back into the church and look for-ward to seeing them.

Some of the persons with whom I speak are young parents, and the arrival of a child in the home has set their lives upside down. Now with some semblance of a routine emerging, returning to Sunday worship seems more possible. Others with whom I am speaking are young adults who have been away from church for a while. The transition from university and early stages of work now accomplished, they are looking for more depth and a re-connecting with their faith.

In addition to many visitors who find our beautiful church on Sundays, there are always new residents of the Town, and many are couples who have re-located here after years in the suburbs. Once getting settled, they find their way to Saint Mary’s and we happily welcome them too. As the sign on the front of the

Church building says, “To those who have recently moved into the area and to those comfortable and nourished here – Welcome to all.”

There is something about September that speaks to all of us “to get-back-to, to start-up-again, to return-to and re-connect-with” many parts of our lives. For whatever the reasons in each per-son’s journey, this returning can well

include active practice of our faith.

A surprising per-centage of people consider them-selves “spiritual” and yet will say they are not “religious”. Without analyz-

ing this distinction, it seems to me the withdrawal from a praying community comes at a cost. Fact is, we need each other and we hunger for community. Loneliness is at epidemic proportions in our city and beyond. The longing for real purpose and meaning in our daily lives is exacerbated by the volume of the popular culture, offering nothing but more of the same - and that is never enough.

Maybe this is the September to come If you have been away for a time, come back, re-connect. You will be amazed at how right it feels. God is waiting.

Las lecturas de hoy nos presentan la realidad de las relaciones del hombre con Dios. De parte del hombre aparece su limitación, su tendencia a la infidelidad, ad dejar a Dios por las creaturas; Dios, en cambio, responde con la misericordia y el amor, con el perdón y el gozo por encontrar lo que estaba perdido. En fin, la misericordia de Dios es la idea común de las tres lecturas: en el Evangelio las tres parábolas son parábolas de la misericordia de Dios; la segunda nos dice que Jesús vino a salvar a los pecadores; el salma es el salmo del hombre que se arrepiente y Dios que se complace en su con-versión, y en la primera lectura, Dios se vale de la mediación de Moisés para perdonar al pueblo. Ahora nos detendremos en esta primera lectura. Este es uno de los hechos más conmovedores del Antiguo Testamento. Dios se disgusta porque su pueblo al que tanto ha ayudado se ha dedicado a adorar un becerro de oro, y quiere decretar su de-strucción. Pero Moisés interviene por estos pecadores y obtiene que el Señor desista del castigo que tenía proyectado. Dios acepta intercesores en favor de los demás. Y ante las oraciones de sus amigos deja de enviar muchos castigos que habrían llegado irremediablemente si no hubiera habido alguien que se dedicara a rezar por los pecadores. El Papa Pío XII decía que de todos los mensajes de la Virgen en Fátima, el que más le impresionaba

era aquel que dice: "Muchos pecadores se pierden porque no hay quién rece por ellos". Ojalá cada uno de nosotros sea un Moisés que dedica buenos tiempos a rezar a Dios por los pecadores, para que respondan a los lazos del amor de Dios y se conviertan y no cosechen e fruto de su pecado: la muerte y la perdición. Este será uno de los oficios más provechosos que podamos hacer en nuestra vida, porque el que salva un alma, salva también la de él… Pero vayamos al becerro de oro, al que podemos estar adorando también nosotros. El becerro de oro es un mal de todos los tiempos: fab-ricarse un becerro y adorarlo. Para unos su becerro de oro son las riquezas, y ante ellas viven postrados, adorándolas de día y de noche y concediéndoles más importancia que la que le conceden a Dios y a la salvación de su alma. Para otros el becerro que adoran es la pasión sexual, y con tal de darle gusto a sus instintos no les importa desagradar a Dios y hasta perderse para siempre. Muchos adoran un becerro que se llama el poder, el poseer, el placer y el parecer, de forma enfermiza, hasta olvidarse de Dios y del cielo eterno… Su deseo de aparecer y de ser alabados y esti- mados. Y con tal de darle gusto a su orgullo y a su vanidad, dejan por un lado sus deberes para con Dios y para con el prójimo. ¿Cuál será el "becerro" que yo estoy adorando? ¿En verdad no estaré rindiendo culto a ningún "becerro" que me lleve a apartarme del amor de Dios y del bien de mi alma? ¿Qué conversión estaré necesitando? ¿Ruego por los pobres equivocados que le rinden culto a lo material concediéndole más importancia que a lo espiritual? Es emocionante ver el resultado maravilloso que consiguieron las plegarias y los ruegos de Moisés. Que sepamos orar como Moisés: Señor: Te ruego por todos los pecadores. Yo soy uno de ellos. Sé muy bien que son muchísimos los que viven noche y día adorando "becerros de oro", sirviendo a su egoísmo, a su impureza, a su orgullo, a la violencia... Y Tú Señor te disgustas grandemente por esto y castigas con justicia semejantes maldades. Pero también sé que Tú perdonas, que escuchas con benevolencia nuestras súplicas. Por eso te ruego por todos los pecadores del mundo: "No nos dejes caer en la tentación, y líbranos del mal. O también podemos orar con el salmo 50, al estilo de Santa Catalina, que lo repetía muchas veces al día, diciendo: "Oh Dios: crea en mí un corazón puro, y no apartes de mí tu Santo Espíritu". Nunca dudemos de en acudir a dios, porque "Un corazón humillado y arrepentido, Dios nunca lo desprecia".

Next week’s collection supports the work of the Little Sisters of the Poor. Together with a di-verse network of collaborators, they serve the elderly poor locally in Somerville. They offer the neediest elderly of every race and religion a home where they will be welcomed as Christ, cared for as family and accompanied with dignity until God calls them to himself.

O God, our hope and refuge, we come remembering those who lost their lives in New York, Washington D.C., and Pennsylvania, and the sacrifice of public servants who demonstrated the greatest love of all by laying down their lives for friends. We commit their souls to your eter-nal care and celebrate the gifts of their lives to the human family. We pray that you will comfort their families and friends who miss them so much. May they continue to heal, and may they live full and wholesome lives. God of compassion, whose loving care extends to all the world, in our grief we remember this day your children of many nations and many faiths whose lives were cut short by the fierce flames of anger and hatred. Console those who continue to suffer and grieve, and give them comfort and hope as they look to the future. Give our leaders the grace to use their power to serve the good of all and for the healing of

the nations. Your Son, O God, commanded us to love our enemies: Lead them and us from prejudice to truth: deliver them and us from hatred, cruelty, and revenge; and in your good time enable us all to stand reconciled before you. O God, you made us in your own image and redeemed us through Jesus your Son: Look with compassion on the whole human family; take away the arrogance and hatred which infect our hearts; break down the walls that separate us; unite us in bonds of love; and work through our struggle and confusion to accomplish your purposes on earth; that, in your good time, all nations and races may serve you in harmony around your heavenly throne; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

At Saint Stephen Parish in Framingham, the lively multicultural community with a strong Hispanic presence has become an extension of Fr. Francisco “Paco” Anzoategui’s family. “We may speak di�erent languages and have di�erent traditions, but we are not two separate communities,” said Fr. Paco. “We are one family of believers with the same faith, and we are united in a wonderful bond that we call our spiritual family.”

To help ensure a continuum of care for Fr. Paco and all our devoted priests who faithfully serve our Catholic family please support the special collection on September 17-18.
