The scribes were the experts in interpreting the Law of Moses, and the Law of Moses was the core of Jewish culture. And so the people of ancient Israel respected and reverenced the scribes. But Jesus was unhappy with them. Without a doubt, they worked long, hard hours; they were always busy with worthy projects. But, sorry to say, their natural intellectual gifts and elevated social function had gone to their heads. Instead of exercising their leadership as a service to the nation and to their neighbors, they were flaunting it to stoke their vanity, increase their comfort, and enhance their reputation. The higher they climbed, the more they looked down on everyone else. They considered themselves superior because they gave more time, talent, and treasure to the Temple than anyone else. But this was a one-dimensional view of generosity. The scribes were forgetting that all those external things were actually gifts God had given them in the first place. What God truly wants from us is something more, something deeper: he wants our love; he wants us to trust in him. This is what the poor widow gave to him. She didn’t just share some of her abundance; she handed over to God all of her wealth, saying to him: “Lord, you are my good shepherd, and I will follow wherever you lead.” That was a prayer the scribes never prayed. They considered that they were doing God a favor by serving him; the widow understood that God was the one doing the favors. That’s the kind of generosity God wants to see flourish in each one of us: the generosity by which we give to God not just our stuff, but our hear Generosity of the heart, true Christian generosity, frees us from the self- destructive shackles of anger, resentment, and vengeance. In 1995 in Cook County, Illinois, a man was on trial for drunk driving. While he was driving drunk, he had collided with and killed two pedestrians. The case was a simple one, because the man pleaded guilty and was willing to accept his sentence. The man's mother came with him to be present at the trial. After the proceedings were finished, another woman came up to her. She introduced herself as the mother of one of the victims of the drunken accident. Then she said, "I just want you to know that I know you must be in great pain, and that I feel for you. I know your son didn't mean to do it. I just wanted you to know that." Instead of being blinded by her own pain and suffering, this woman was able to reach out and comfort someone else, someone related to the very man who killed her own child. That's the kind of interior strength and freedom that comes from a truly humble, self- forgetting, generous heart. As St Vincent de Paul used to say: "The most powerful weapon to conquer the Devil is humility. For, as he does not know at all how to employ it, neither does he know how to defend himself from it." May God Bless you. Fr. Dan

OUR GIFTS TO GOD - That when we give our financial support to

our parish, we give from our “first fruits” and not what from what is “left

over”.

Offertory Collection / Diezmos 11/04/2018…..……………..…$

Overage/Sobrante (Deficite/Faltante) ………….………………. $

Jesus gets right to the point – we are all called to give money to support

the mission of the Church, regardless of our circumstance. No gift is too

small or insignificant! Giving money to support the mission of our local

parish is a matter of our faith, just like praying and participating in parish

ministries. When you make a financial offering, is it from your “first fruits”

or from what is “left over”?

THIRTY SECOND SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 2018 TRIGESIMO SEGUNDO DOMINGO DEL TIEMPO ORDINARIO DOMINGO 11 DE NOVIEMBRE DEL 2018

CARTA DE NUESTRO PÁRROCO Queridos Feligreses, Dios es generosidad total, y él ama a aquellos que imitan su generosidad en sus vidas. Hay dos formas de ser generoso: a la manera de los escribas o el camino de la viuda. Los escribas eran los expertos en la interpretación de la ley de Moisés y la ley de Moisés era el núcleo de la cultura judía. Y el pueblo del antiguo Israel, respetado y reverenciado por los escribas. Y Jesús estaba contento con ellos. Sin duda, trabajaron duros, largas horas; siempre estaban ocupados con dignos proyectos. Pero, lamento decirlo, sus dones intelectuales y elevada función social se les había subido a la cabeza. En lugar de ejercer su liderazgo como un servicio a la nación y a sus vecinos, fueron haciendo alarde y alimentaban su vanidad, aumentaba su vanidad. Cuanto más alto que subían, más despreciaban a todos los demás. Se consideraban superiores porque daban más tiempo, talento y tesoro para el templo que cualquier otra persona. Pero esto era algo unidimensional de la generosidad. Los escribas fueron olvidando que todas esas cosas externas eran realmente los dones que Dios les había dado en primer lugar. Lo que Dios realmente quiere de nosotros es algo más, algo más profundo: él quiere nuestro amor; él quiere que confiemos en él. Esto es lo que la viuda pobre le dio a él. Ella no sólo comparte su abundancia; ella se entregó a Dios toda su riqueza, diciéndole: "Señor, eres mi buen pastor, y te seguiré dondequiera que conduzcas". Era una oración que los escribas nunca oraron. Consideraban que le estaban haciendo un favor a Dios por servirle; la viuda entiende que Dios fue haciendo el favor. Ese es el tipo de generosidad que Dios quiere ver florecer en cada uno de nosotros: la generosidad, con la que damos a Dios no sólo de nuestra materia, pero de nuestra generosidad del corazón, verdadera generosidad cristiana, que nos libera de los grilletes de auto destrucción de la ira , resentimiento y la venganza. En 1995 en el Condado de Cook, Illinois, un hombre fue a juicio por conducir borracho. Mientras conducía borracho, había chocado y mató a dos peatones. El caso fue sencillo, porque el hombre se declaró culpable y estaba dispuesto a aceptar su condena. La madre del hombre vino con él a estar presente en el juicio. Después de que se terminó el procedimiento, otra mujer se acercó a ella. Se presentó como la madre de una de las víctimas del accidente borracho. Entonces ella le dijo, "sólo quiero que sepas que sé que debes estar con un gran dolor, y es lo que yo siento por ti. Sé que tu hijo no quiso hacerlo. Sólo quería que supieras que". En lugar de ser cegado por su propio dolor y sufrimiento, esta mujer fue capaz de acercarse y consolar a alguien, alguien relacionado con el mismo hombre que mató a su propio hijo. Es el tipo de fuerza interior y la libertad que viene de un corazón verdaderamente humilde, y

que nos hace olvidarnos de ser auto, generosos. Como St. Vicente de Paul: solía decir: "el arma más poderosa para vencer al diablo es la humildad. Como no sabía en absoluto cómo emplearlo, ni sabía cómo defenderse de él. Que Dios los bendiga. Padre Dan

32º domingo del tiempo ordinario: Que cuando demos nuestro apoyo financiero a nuestra parroquia,

demos de nuestros “primeros frutos” y no de lo que “nos sobra".

"Les digo que esta pobre viuda aportó más que todos los demás

contribuyentes al tesoro. Porque todos contribuyeron de su

abundancia; pero ella, de su pobreza, ha puesto todo lo que tenía,

toda su vida. "(Marcos 12: 43-44)

Jesús va directo al grano: todos estamos llamados a dar dinero

para apoyar la misión de la Iglesia, independientemente de

nuestras circunstancias. ¡Ningún regalo es demasiado pequeño o

insignificante! Dar dinero para apoyar la misión de nuestra

parroquia local es una cuestión de nuestra fe, al igual que orar y

participar en los ministerios de la parroquia. Cuando haces una

oferta financiera, ¿es de tus "primeros frutos" o de lo que

"sobra"?
