STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION
Our Second Reading from St. Paul’s letter to the Romans is quite short, but as is ever the case with Holy Scripture it contains a central message which is quite important to us. One of the ongoing challenges of being Catholic and Christian in today’s society is that society, cultural norms, some-times seem to work against our efforts to live as followers and disciples of Christ.
Paul sums up that struggle succinctly as he says, “Do not conform yourselves to this age, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and pleasing and perfect.” Paul offers two suggestions in terms of combating the temptation to conform and agree.
First, he calls for a “renewal” of our minds. Often in today’s society the standard opinion is that it is feelings, how we feel, that are most important. Living in that way ignores the mind approach. Second, if we do try to sort things out intellectually we can only be successful in God’s eyes if we seek truth. The question we must pose to ourselves and to which we need to seek a conclusion is not “How do I feel?” or even “What do I think?” The important question for us is “What is true and what does God’s Word say?”
The philosopher and author C. S. Lewis defined truth simply when he wrote: “No philosophical theory which I have yet come across is a radical improvement on the words of Genesis, that ‘…in the beginning God made heaven and earth’.”

REFLECION DOMINICAL Nuestra Segunda Lectura de la carta de San Pablo a los Romanos es muy corta, pero como siempre con la Sagrada Escritura contiene un mensaje central que es muy importante para nosotros. Uno de los desafíos actuales de ser católico y cristiano en la sociedad de hoy es que la sociedad, las normas culturales, a veces parecen trabajar en contra de nuestros esfuerzos por vivir como seguidores y discípulos de Cristo.
Pablo resume esta lucha de manera sucinta cuando dice: "No os conforméis a este siglo, sino que seáis transformados por la renovación de vuestro entendimiento, para que discernáis cuál es la voluntad de Dios, qué es bueno y agradable y perfecto". Ofrece dos sugerencias en términos de combatir la tentación de conformarse y estar de acuerdo.
Primero, él pide una "renovación" de nuestras mentes. A menudo en la sociedad de hoy en día la opinión estándar es que son los sentimientos, cómo nos sentimos, que son los más importantes. Vivir de esa manera ignora el enfoque de la mente. En segundo lugar, si tratamos de resolver las cosas intelectualmente sólo podemos tener éxito a los ojos de Dios si buscamos la verdad. La pregunta que debemos hacernos a nosotros mismos ya la cual debemos buscar una conclusión no es "¿Cómo me siento?", Ni siquiera "¿Qué pienso?" La pregunta importante para nosotros es "¿Qué es verdad y qué dice la Palabra de Dios ? "
El filósofo y autor CS Lewis definió la verdad simplemente cuando escribió: "Ninguna teoría filosófica que haya encontrado es una mejora radical de las palabras de Génesis, que" ... en el principio Dios hizo el cielo y la tierra ".

“Adoration is prayer that prolongs the celebration of the Eucharistic Communion and in which the soul continues to be nourished: it is nourished with love, truth and peace; it is nourished with hope, because the One before whom we prostrate ourselves does not judge us, does not crush us, but liberates and transforms us.” - Pope Benedict XVI

St. James—St. Leo Catholic Community is under the pastoral care of the Eudist Fathers, or Congregation of Jesus and Mary. We owe our name to Saint John Eudes who founded the Congregation in France in 1643. The Eudists currently operate in 15 countries, most of which are in the developing world. Evangelization, mainly with the poor and the youth, is our primary purpose, as well as formation to ministry in the
training of diocesan priests and lay ministers. Our motto is “To Serve Christ and His Church.” For more information visit: http://www.eudistsusa.org
Welcome to St. James-St. Leo Catholic Community!
We warmly welcome all visitors and hope you will consider making our community your parish home. Church attendance does not make you or your family registered members.
