LEAVE A LEGACY MONTH
June is “Leave a Legacy” month in the Diocese of Norwich. It is a wonderful time to remind parishioners in the Diocese about the value of charitable estate planning. Some people choose to mark their legacy by requesting gifts made in
memoriam to the parish, school, ministry or the Diocese in lieu of flowers upon their passing. Others include a bequest in their Will to their favorite Catholic organization. Still others are interested in establishing an endowment with the Catholic Foundation of the Diocese of Norwich to benefit a diocesan organization. Most recently, Mr. Leo Barron of Gales Ferry established The Leo E. and Lorraine A. Barron Endowment within the Catholic Foundation to support our Lady of Lourdes Church. We are blessed that Mr. Barron’s generosity will allow him to help his Church into perpetuity. If you are interested in learning more about how you can leave your legacy and support all the good works that the Church is involved with, please contact Mary Ellen Mahoney, Development Manager, at (860) 886-1928 or email [email protected].

DECIMO PRIMER DOMINGO ORDINARIO 17 DE JUNIO, 2018
LAS LECTURAS DE HOY
Isabel, la prima de la Virgen María estaba casada con Zacarías, quien era sacerdote, servía a Dios en el templo y esperaba la llegada del Mesías que Dios había prometido a Abraham. No habían tenido hijos, pero no se cansaban de pedírselo al Señor. Vivían de acuerdo con la ley de Dios.
Un día, un ángel del Señor se le apareció a Zacarías, quien se sobresaltó y se llenó de miedo. El Arcángel Gabriel le anunció que iban a tener un hijo muy especial, pero Zacarías dudó y le preguntó que cómo sería posible esto si él e Isabel ya eran viejos. Entonces el ángel le contestó que, por haber dudado, se quedaría mudo hasta que todo esto sucediera. Y así fue.
La Virgen María, al enterarse de la noticia del embarazo de Isabel, fue a visitarla. Y en el momento en que Isabel oyó el saludo de María, el niño saltó de júbilo en su vientre. Éste es uno de los muchos gestos de delicadeza, de servicio y de amor que tiene la Virgen María para con los demás. Antes de pensar en ella misma, también embarazada, pensó en ir a ayudar a su prima Isabel.
El ángel había encargado a Zacarías ponerle por nombre Juan. Con el nacimiento de Juan, Zacarías recupera su voz y lo primero que dice es: "Bendito el Señor, Dios de Israel".
Juan creció muy cerca de Dios. Cuando llegó el momento, anunció la venida del Salvador, predicando el arrepentimiento y la conversión y bautizando en el río Jordán.
La predicación de Juan Bautista Juan Bautista es el Precursor, es decir, el enviado por Dios para prepararle el camino al Salvador. Por lo tanto, es el último profeta, con la misión de anunciar la llegada inmediata del Salvador.
Juan iba vestido de pelo de camello, llevaba un cinturón de cuero y se alimentaba de langostas y miel silvestre. Venían hacia él los habitantes de Jerusalén y Judea y los de la región del Jordán. Juan bautizaba en el río Jordán y la gente se arrepentía de sus pecados. Predicaba que los hombres tenían que cambiar su modo de vivir para poder entrar en el Reino que ya estaba cercano. El primer mensaje que daba Juan Bautista era el de reconocer los pecados, pues, para lograr un cambio, hay que reconocer las fallas. El segundo mensaje era el de cambiar la manera de vivir, esto es, el de hacer un esfuerzo constante para vivir de acuerdo con la voluntad de Dios. Esto serviría de preparación para la venida del Salvador. En suma, predicó a los hombres el arrepentimiento de los pecados y la conversión de vida.
Juan reconoció a Jesús al pedirle Él que lo bautizara en el Jordán. En ese momento se abrieron los cielos y se escuchó la voz del Padre que decía: "Éste es mi Hijo amado...". Juan dio testimonio de esto diciendo: "Éste es el Cordero de Dios...". Reconoció siempre la grandeza de Jesús, del que dijo no ser digno de desatarle las correas de sus sandalias, al proclamar que él debía disminuir y Jesús crecer porque el que viene de arriba está sobre todos.
Fue testigo de la verdad hasta su muerte. Murió por amor a ella. Herodías, la mujer ilegítima de Herodes, pues era en realidad la mujer de su hermano, no quería a Juan el Bautista y deseaba matarlo, ya que Juan repetía a Herodes: "No te es lícito tenerla". La hija de Herodías, en el día de cumpleaños de Herodes, bailó y agradó tanto a su padre que éste juró darle lo que pidiese. Ella, aconsejada por su madre, le pidió la cabeza de Juan el Bautista. Herodes se entristeció, pero, por el juramento hecho, mandó que le cortaran la cabeza de Juan Bautista que estaba en la cárcel

CORPUS CHRISTI CATHOLIC COMMUNITY
A MESSAGE FROM FATHER LARRY
Dear sisters and brothers in Christ,
A few years ago I was able to attend a godchild’s
graduation from high school. At the impressive and rather
wordy ceremony two students, a young man and a young
woman, selected by the class to speak at their graduation, gave
a speech. Both were impressive; but the young woman’s speech
spoke of a book titled “Being Wrong” and how it spoke to the
challenge posed by the “’cuz it’s true” limitation. She recounted
how difficult it was to make the transition from believing that
everything I believe is the way it really is to critical thinking or
asking why something is the way it is.
It made me think of hearing someone say many years
ago that the “seven last words of the church” are “That’s the
way we’ve always done it.” A fresh approach is what we’re
working on in our tri-parochial religious education program.
Although it was overwhelmingly well received this past year,
there were some suggestions on how to improve the program
and some more that will emerge, I’m sure, in the end of year
breakfast meeting with the catechists that will be incorporated
into next year’s program.
We’ve talked at length and from time to time about the
weekend Mass schedule. The anticipated events scheduled for
the Jilson Green may present an opportunity to try out
something that we’ve talked about but never tried and that’s a
Sunday evening Mass. What about moving the 4:30 Saturday
Vigil Mass at Saint Mary’s to Sunday at 5 or 6 PM just for this
July and August? There would still be a Vigil Mass at 4 PM at
Saint Joseph and ours would be the only summer Sunday
evening Mass in the area. For younger families who are busy on
Saturday nights and Sunday mornings this might provide them
an opportunity to have a Mass they could attend together. It’s
not perfect, you say; but, hey, it’s OK not to be perfect. God
alone is perfect. We’re a work in progress and it’s OK to ask
“Why?” and “What if…”. Have you heard the story of the Thanksgiving turkey
with short legs? Well, it seems that one day in a kitchen just like
ours there was a family getting ready for Thanksgiving dinner.
The turkey was in the oven getting all golden and juicy. When
the bird came out of the oven one of the teenagers asked “Hey,
so why are the ends of the drumsticks cut short? The parent who
was cooking said “I always do that ‘cuz that’s the way my Mom
did it”. So the teen goes over to Grandma and asks why the legs
of the turkey are cut short.
She says the same thing so the curious teen goes to the
living room and asks, “Great Grandma, why did you used to cut
the legs short on the Thanksgiving turkey?”. “Oh, dear”, she says
pleasantly “I always used to cut the legs short because the oven
in the house your Great Grandfather and I lived in was too small
for the turkeys we needed to cook to feed the family so I always
cut the legs short so I could close the oven door.”
I guess the moral of the story is: Don’t be afraid to ask
why. Don’t be afraid to be wrong. Don’t be afraid to apologize.
Don’t be afraid to fall short of perfection. Don’t be afraid of
change. Let’s just trust in God, love one another and do our best
and everything will be OK.
Devotedly yours in Christ,
Fr. Larry
UN MENSAJE DEL PADRE LARRY
Queridas hermanas y hermanos en Cristo,
Hace algunos años pude asistir a la graduación de un
ahijado en la escuela secundaria. En la ceremonia impresionante y
bastante prolija, dos estudiantes, un hombre joven y una mujer
joven, seleccionados por la clase para hablar en su graduación,
dieron un discurso. Ambos fueron impresionantes; pero el discurso
de la joven habló de un libro titulado "Ser incorrecto" y cómo se
refirió al desafío planteado por la limitación de "porque es verdad".
Ella contó lo difícil que fue hacer la transición de creer que todo lo
que creo es lo que realmente es para el pensamiento crítico o
preguntar por qué algo es así.
Me hizo pensar en escuchar a alguien decir hace muchos
años que las "siete últimas palabras de la iglesia" son "Así es como
siempre lo hemos hecho". Un acercamiento nuevo es en lo que
estamos trabajando en nuestra iglesia tri-parroquial. Programa
educativo. Aunque fue abrumadoramente bien recibido este año
pasado, hubo algunas sugerencias sobre cómo mejorar el programa
y algunas más que surgirán, estoy seguro, en la reunión del
desayuno de fin de año con los catequistas que se incorporarán al
programa del próximo año. .
Hemos hablado extensamente y de vez en cuando sobre el
horario de misa del fin de semana. Los eventos anticipados
programados para el Jilson Green pueden presentar una
oportunidad para probar algo de lo que hemos hablado pero nunca
lo hemos intentado y es una Misa de domingo por la noche. ¿Qué
hay de mover la misa de las 4:30 del Sábado Vigilia en Saint Mary's
hasta el domingo a las 5 o 6 PM solo para este julio y agosto?
Todavía habría una Misa de Vigilia a las 4 PM en Saint Joseph y la
nuestra sería la única Misa vespertina de verano en la zona. Para las
familias más jóvenes que están ocupadas los sábados por la noche y
los domingos por la mañana, esto podría brindarles la oportunidad
de tener una Misa a la que puedan asistir juntas. No es perfecto,
dices; pero, oye, está bien no ser perfecto. Solo Dios es perfecto
Somos un trabajo en progreso y está bien preguntar "¿Por qué?" Y
"¿Qué pasa si...?".
¿Has oído la historia del pavo de Acción de Gracias con
patas cortas? Bueno, parece que un día en una cocina como la
nuestra había una familia preparándose para la cena de Acción de
Gracias. El pavo estaba en el horno poniéndose todo dorado y
jugoso. Cuando el pájaro salió del horno, uno de los adolescentes
preguntó: "Oye, ¿por qué los extremos de los muslos se cortan? El
padre que estaba cocinando dijo "Siempre hago eso" porque así lo
hizo mi mamá”. Entonces el adolescente se acerca a la abuela y le
pregunta por qué las piernas del pavo se cortan.
Ella dice lo mismo por lo que el adolescente curioso va a la
sala de estar y pregunta: "Gran abuela, ¿por qué solías cortarte las
piernas en el pavo de Acción de Gracias?". "Oh, querido", dice
amablemente "Siempre solía cortar las piernas porque el horno de la
casa donde vivía tu bisabuelo era demasiado pequeño para los
pavos que necesitábamos cocinar para alimentar a la familia, así que
siempre corté las piernas cortas para poder cerrar la puerta del
horno ".
Supongo que la moraleja de la historia es: no temas
preguntar por qué. No tengas miedo de equivocarte. No tengas
miedo de disculparte. No tengas miedo de no alcanzar la
perfección. No tengas miedo al cambio. Confiemos en Dios, nos
amamos los unos a los otros y hacemos todo lo posible y todo
estará bien.
Devotamente suyo en Cristo,
P. Larry
