Twenty-ninth Sunday in Ordinary Time October 17, 2021 Through his suffering, my servant shall justify many. — Isaiah 53:11b
Vigésimo Noveno Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario 17 de octubre de 2021 Con sus sufrimientos justificará mi siervo a muchos. — Isaías 53:11b
TWENTY-NINTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
THE HUMANITY OF JESUS CHRIST All three readings today support—each in its own way, of course—a reflection on the humanity of Jesus Christ and how that humanity played a key role in the drama of our salvation. Although not cho-sen specifically to coordinate with the other two readings, today’s second reading does in fact carry for-ward the theme of Christ’s humanity in a remarkable way. The author of the Letter to the Hebrews highlights the solidarity that exists between Jesus and us, precisely because in his human nature Jesus has known the same sufferings and testing that are our own experience. Because he can “sympathize with our weaknesses,” we can “approach the throne of grace to receive mercy.” For the author of Hebrews, the humanity of Jesus was an essential require-ment for his redemptive death, as well as an invitation to us to find in Jesus someone with whom we can identify in our daily struggles.

Monthly Explanation of the Mass
The Eucharistic Prayer
The Eucharistic Prayer is the “center and high point of the entire celebration,” through which “the whole congregation of the faithful joins with Christ in confessing the great deeds of God and in the offering of Sacrifice” (General Instruction of the Roman Missal, 78). This central prayer of the Mass is why we often refer to the entire celebration as Eucharist, which is not a thing, but rather an action – Eucharist (a Greek term) literally means “to give thanks.”
Although this prayer is spoken mostly by the priest, the gathered faithful are in no way specta-
tors. We are all doing something even if we are not speaking – our active participation is par-amount here, for we are offering our very selves in thanksgiving for all God has done to save us and we join our prayer to that of Christ who speaks through the priest.
The Eucharistic Prayer leads us miraculously beyond space and time – earth is joined to heaven and past, present, and future become one in our celebration, enabling us at each Mass to be with Christ at His sacrifice on the Cross (past) and with Him and all the angels and saints at the heavenly banquet (future). This calls us to actively participate by fixing our minds and hearts on God in thanksgiving and in offering our lives to God as Christ has done.
VIGÉSIMO NOVENO DOMINGO DEL TIEMPO ORDINARIO
LA HUMANIDAD DE JESUCRISTO
Las tres lecturas de hoy apoyan –cada una a su manera, por supuesto– una reflexión sobre la hu-manidad de Jesucristo y la forma en que la humanidad tuvo un papel clave en el drama de nuestra salvación. Aunque no fue seleccionada específicamente para coordinar con las otras dos lecturas, la se-gunda lectura de hoy, de hecho, continúa el tema de la humanidad de Cristo de una manera notable. El autor de la Carta a los Hebreos pone de relieve la solidaridad que existe entre Jesús y nosotros, precisamente porque en su naturaleza humana Jesús ha conocido los mismos sufrimientos y las pruebas que son parte de nuestra experiencia. Debido a que puede “compadecerse de nuestros sufrimientos” po-demos “acercarnos al trono de la gracia para recibir misericordia”. Para el autor de Hebreos, la hu-manidad de Jesús era un requisito esencial para su muerte redentora, así como una invitación a que veamos en Jesús a alguien con el que podemos identificarnos en nuestras luchas diarias.

ADORACIÓN AL SANTÍSIMO SACRAMENTO

Que el Señor Jesús te toque con Su Poder Sanador
Explicación mensual de la misa
La Plegaria Eucarística
• La Plegaria Eucarística es el “centro y punto culminante de toda la celebración”, a través de la cual “toda la congregación de los fieles se une a Cristo en la confesión de las grandes obras de Dios y en la ofrenda del sacrificio” (Instrucción General del Misal Romano , 78). Esta oración central de la Misa es la razón por la que a menudo nos referimos a toda la celebración como Eu-caristía, que no es una cosa, sino una acción: Eucaristía (un término griego) significa literalmen-te "dar gracias".
• Aunque esta oración la pronuncia mayoritariamente el sacerdote, los fieles reunidos no son en modo alguno espectadores. Todos estamos haciendo algo aunque no estemos hablando: nuestra participación activa es primordial aquí, porque nos ofrecemos a nosotros mismos en acción de gracias por todo lo que Dios ha hecho para salvarnos y unimos nuestra oración a la de Cristo que habla a través del sacerdote. .
• La Plegaria Eucarística nos lleva milagrosamente más allá del espacio y el tiempo: la tierra se une al cielo y el pasado, el presente y el futuro se vuelven uno en nuestra celebración, permi-tiéndonos en cada Misa estar con Cristo en Su sacrificio en la Cruz (pasado) y con Él y todos los ángeles y santos en el banquete celestial (futuro). Esto nos llama a participar activamente fijan-do nuestras mentes y corazones en Dios en acción de gracias y ofreciendo nuestras vidas a Dios como lo ha hecho Cristo.

ACHIEVING SANCTITY Let us throw ourselves into the ocean of God’s goodness, where every failing will be cancelled and anxiety turned into love. —St. Paul of the Cross
THE SANCTUARY LIGHT IN CHURCH BURNS IN MEMORY OF EMMA MELGAR
FIESTA DE LA FE Comunión: dar y recibir
La celebración eucarística es la oración por excelencia de toda la Iglesia; la plenitud de esta celebración es la comu-nión. Aunque comulgamos personalmente, es una acción totalmente comunitaria. No comulgamos como individuos sino como un solo cuerpo místico de Cristo que somos. Cristo mismo partió su cuerpo y nos lo dio; durante su ministerio público, pidió a sus apóstoles que repartieran el pan a la gen-te. La comunión se nos da porque en sí es un don y regalo de Dios. Si tomamos directamente la comunión empobrece el significado porque no es un autoservicio o algo que simple-mente podemos agarrar. Al comulgar lo que somos, dice san Agustín, estamos llamados a ser lo que comemos. La Eucaris-tía, como sacramento, es un regalo absoluto de Dios, es un estilo de vida, una espiritualidad a vivir, nunca una conquista propia. La Eucaristía, nos lo recuerda Juan Pablo II, “crea comunión y educa a la comunión”. En comunión no sólo se recibe el don, sino que la persona comulgante, se da a sí mis-ma, a lo que comulga y a la asamblea con quien comulga y vive esa comunión.
—Miguel Arias, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
FEAST OF FAITH Only Say the Word
The bread is broken, the banquet is prepared, and now we are invited to the feast. Once more the priest holds the host, now broken, for us to see, and invites us to behold the one “who takes away the sins of the world.” Truly blessed and happy are those invited to this meal, which is a foretaste of the heav-enly banquet, the supper of the Lamb (Revelation 19:19). We respond to this invitation with a prayer to the Lord: we acknowledge that we are not worthy, but at the same time we are confident that the One who comes to us can heal us, body and soul. This prayer echoes the story of the centurion in Luke’s Gospel. The centurion, a Gentile, asks healing for his servant, but does not consider himself worthy to have Jesus come under his roof—he believes that Jesus can heal his servant with a word, without even seeing him. Jesus is amazed at his faith. It is the same for us. We believe that Je-sus speaks to us, comes to us, dwells with us, even though we neither hear his voice nor see his face. —Corinna Laughlin, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
LA BONDAD DE DIOS
Adentrémonos al océano de la bondad de Dios, ahí cada fracaso desaparecerá y la ansiedad se converti-rá en amor. —San Pablo de la Cruz
