From the Desk of Father José Félix
Holy Water
Recently a visitor from Italy told me at the end of Mass that he was amazed that we still have a place for Holy water at the entrance of our Church. Supposedly in his Church they were banned for health reasons.
As you know, we have the four beautiful marble angels at the entrance of the Church. I don’t know if they are here from the beginning of the Church in 1917 or if they were brought later. I wish they could talk. For more than a hundred years they have been there, faithfully at the entrance of our Church, welcoming people and offering comfort. They have seen hundreds of thousands of people coming through the doors, some happy, others sad; some worried, others may be distracted; some are parishioners, other just tourists or visitors.
The angels, in their hands, have the Holy Water that reminds us of our Baptism, the day we were made clean of our sins and adopted by Our Heavenly Father. The Holy Water also symbolizes the purification, as a requirement to be in the presence of the Lord. The Holy Water is also used in our houses, as a reminder of the presence of God and against any attack of evil.
Let’s renew that simple tradition of using Holy Water when we go into the Church and make the Sign of the Cross. By the way… we change the water often and sanitize the place where the water is.
God bless, Father José Félix
+ REST IN PEACE + Please pray for Margaret Marcone, Teresa Galluzzo,
Christopher Edwards and all the faithful departed

TODAY’S READINGS First Reading — Brothers and sisters of every race and language will be brought to Jerusalem (Isaiah 66:18-21). Psalm — Go out to all the world and tell the Good News (Psalm 117). Second Reading — Strengthen your drooping hands and your weak knees (Hebrews 12:5-7, 11-13). Gospel — People from east and west, north and south recline at table in the kingdom of God (Luke 13:22-30).
TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION The wonderful diversity of life and worship among Roman Catholics of East and West is an example of God writing straight with crooked lines. The steady hand of the villainous Emperor Diocletian drew a line across Eu-rope and Africa that split the empire in two, and for the most part determined how Christians would worship two thousand years later. Italy’s heel and the far northern city of Trieste fell on the Eastern side, and have had a form of Eastern liturgy ever since. Constantinople, which soon became the seat of the Roman Empire, became a base for Christianizing the East up to Russia and Poland. Poland was on the East-ern side, but a series of wars and medieval mayhem pushed the religious boundary back to the Ukraine, and Poland remains an outpost of the Latin Church to this day. An old rule of thumb declared that whatever religion was observed by the local prince, the people had to fol-low. This gave rise to persecution and migration as peo-ple sought toleration for their expressions of faith. In the United States, we are accustomed to peaceful collabora-tion among Christians of East and West, a situation that challenges churches that still feel the pinch of age-old division.

GRACE AND STRUGGLE
The gift of grace increases as the struggles increase.
—St. Rose of Lima
LECTURAS DE HOY Primera lectura — Hermanos y hermanas de todas las razas e idiomas acudirán a Jerusalén (Isaías 66:18-21). Salmo — Vayan por todo el mundo y prediquen el Evan-gelio (Salmo 117 [116]). Segunda lectura — Sé fuerte y soporta las pruebas como la “disciplina” de un Dios amoroso (Hebreos 12:5-7, 11-13). Evangelio — Gente del este y el oeste, del norte y del sur se sentarán a la mesa del Reino de Dios (Lucas 13:22-30).
TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE Hay quienes quieren negar los derechos de los inmi-grantes latinos que llegan a los Estados Unidos en busca de una vida mejor. Esta injusticia es extraña ya que los hispanos llegamos al territorio estadounidense en 1513, 73 años antes de la llegada de los primeros anglosajones. Estos fueron Ponce de León y compañeros quienes busca-ban una mejor vida en la famosa fuente de la juventud. Eventualmente los hispanos dejaron de buscar la ilusoria fuente y en 1565 en la fiesta de san Agustín (28 de Agos-to), Pedro Menéndez de Avilés fundó la primera ciudad en Florida. Gracias a su santo patrón esta ciudad ha podido so-brevivir ataques de invasores británicos y piratas, amena-zas de huracanes y tempestades para convertirse en la ciudad más vieja de la Unión Americana. ¿Pero quien fue este santo? Agustín, fue un obispo africano, quien des-pués de una vida desordenada se convirtió en uno de los santos mas importantes de la Iglesia, gracias a las oracio-nes continuas de su madre santa Mónica. Nunca debemos menospreciar el poder de las oraciones de una madre por sus hijos.
