A Message From Deacon Paul:
Mandate for Mission
Most of today’s reading in Luke’s Gospel takes
place right after Jesus is baptized and the Holy
Spirit descended upon him. Jesus then went to his
hometown to begin his ministry. The quote from
the Prophet Isaiah sets the tone for his ministry
throughout the Gospel and establishes the mission of his
earliest followers. This is also the mission that he expects
his church (us) to carry out in his name. That is, we are to
bring glad tidings to the poor, liberation to captives,
recovery of sight to the blind, and freedom for the
oppressed. It is a ministry rooted in concern for those on
the margins of life and for freedom for the oppressed. If
the Church today is to preach the good news to the poor
and liberation to captives, it must follow the guidance of
St. Paul found in the second readings from last week and
this week, to be a union of people with different gifts
working together to build the kingdom of God on earth.
The Mission should not be taken over by one group or one
charism. The power of Jesus’ mission is preceded by the
teachings of Ezra whose reading of the law of God showed
the power of God’s word in how we live our lives.
Mandados para la Misio n
La mayor parte de la lectura de hoy en el Evangelio de Lucas tiene lugar justo despues de que Jesús fue bautizado y el Espiritu Santo descendió sobre Él. Entonces Jesús fue a su ciudad natal para comenzar su ministerio. La cita del Profeta Isaias establece el tono para su ministerio en todo el
Evangelio y establece la misión de sus primeros seguidores. Esta es la misión que espera de su iglesia (nosotros) para llevar a cabo en su nombre. Es decir, llevar la buena noticia a los pobres, la liberación a los cautivos, la vista a los ciegos y la libertad a los oprimidos. Es un ministerio enraizado en la preocupación por los marginados de la vida y de la libertad de los oprimidos. Si la misión de la Iglesia de hoy es predicar las buenas nuevas a los pobres y la liberación a los cautivos, se debe seguir la orientación de San Pablo que se encuentra en las segundas lecturas de la semana pasada y de esta, para ser una unión de personas con diferentes dones a trabajar juntos para construir el reino de Dios en la tierra. La misión no debe ser tomada por un grupo o un solo carisma. El poder de la misión de Jesús es precedido por las enseñanzas de Esdras cuya lectura de la ley de Dios mostró el poder de la palabra de Dios en la forma en que vivimos nuestras vidas.
