Felicidades Bispo- Eleito Schlert! O Papa Francisco nomeou o Msgr. Alfred A. Schlert como novo Bispo da Diocese de Allentown. http://www.allentowndiocese.org/blog/pope-francis-has-named-msgr.-alfred-a.-schlert-as-the-dioceses-n/ ___________________________________ Peregrinação para Medjugorje Eu quero que todos saibam que eu vou estar em peregrinação a Medjugorje de 2 a 10 de Julho. Vocês estarão todos nas minhas orações enquanto peco a Nossa Santíssima Mãe que interceda pelo crescimento da santidade e unidade de Jesus da nossa Família Paroquial e de cada uma das nossas famílias individuais! Que a Rainha da Paz nos obtenha todas as graças que os nossos corações desejam!

Somente crê

Hoje, são Marco nos apresenta uma avalancha de necessitados que se aproxima

a Jesus Salvador procurando consolo e saúde. Inclusive, aquele dia abriu-se passo

entre a multidão um homem chamado Jairo; o chefe da sinagoga, para implorar pela

saúde de sua filhinha: «Minha filhinha está nas últimas. Vem, impõe as mãos sobre ela para que fique curada e viva!» (Mc 5,23).

Quem sabe se aquele homem já não conhecia de vista a Jesus, de vê-lo frequentemente na sinagoga e, achando-se tão desesperado,

decidiu invocar sua ajuda. De todas as formas, Jesus captando a fé daquele pai

afligido acedeu à petição, só que enquanto se dirigia a sua casa chegou a notícia de que

a menina tinha morrido e que era inútil incomodá-lo: «Tua filha morreu. Por que ainda incomodas o mestre?» (Mc 5,35).

Jesus, dando-se conta da situação, pediu a

Jairo que não se deixara influir pelo ambiente pessimista, lhe dizendo: «Não

tenhas medo, somente crê» (Mc 5,36). Jesus lhe pediu aquele pai uma fé maior, capaz de ir além das dúvidas e do medo. Ao chegar à casa de Jairo, o Messias retornou a vida à menina com as palavras: «Talitá kum, que

quer dizer: ‘Menina, eu te digo, levanta-te’» (Mc 5,41).

Também nós deveríamos ter mais fé, aquela fé que não duvida diante das dificuldades e provas da vida e, que sabe madurar na dor através de nossa união com Cristo, tal como

nos sugere o papa Bento XVI, na sua encíclica Spe Salvi (Salvados pela esperança): «O que cura o homem não é esquivar o sofrimento e fugir diante a dor, senão a capacidade de aceitar a tribulação, madurar nela e, achar

nela um sentido mediante a união com Cristo, que sofreu com amor infinito».
