It gives us God's own definition of the most important Christian virtue, the very bedrock of our Christian life: faith. The writer of the Letter to the Hebrews tells us what faith is. He writes: "Faith is the realization of what is hoped for and evidence of things not seen." These are two ways of saying the same thing. "The realization of what is hoped for" means that when we have faith, we are filled with a certainty that God will fulfill his promises, even though they haven't been fulfilled yet. Evidence of things not seen" means that when we have faith, we have a supernatural knowledge, we know with certainty that all the things God has revealed are true. No one here in this church saw with their physical eyes Jesus rise from the dead, but we know that he is risen. No one here in this room sees with their physical eyes the body and blood of Jesus in the Eucharist, but we know they are there, underneath the appearances of bread and wine. This is the essence of faith: accepting something as true - NOT because our own senses assure us of it, but because the person who tells it to us is trustworthy. The Church that teaches us that Christ rose from the dead, and that Christ is truly present in the Eucharist, is trustworthy. It has weathered the storms of two thousand years, continuing to teach the same doctrine as when it started, continuing to celebrate the same sacraments, and continuing to give saints to this needy world. This faith, this evidence of things not seen with our senses, is one of God's greatest gifts to us. Today the Church is inviting us to appreciate it anew. Many of today's intellectuals and cultural elites consider faith to be childish. Mature people, they say, don't depend on faith; they depend on science and reason. Because of this, those of us who still value faith are sometimes embarrassed about it. We cover it up in conversations around the water cooler We don't want other people to look down on us. But we shouldn't be embarrassed. Faith is a necessary part of any fully human life. Those people who criticize us for having faith in God are making two mistakes. First, they are forgetting that we have very good reasons that support our faith. We were not eye witnesses to Christ's resurrection, for example, but there were eye witnesses who saw the risen Christ, and those eye witnesses founded the Church, which has endured longer than any merely human organization. We were not eye witnesses to the creation of the universe, but the order and beauty of the cosmos makes it quite reasonable to believe that there was indeed an intelligent creator. The more we study our faith, the more we get to know the good reasons that support it. The second mistake these critics make is forgetting that they too live most of their lives by faith. They have faith in the engineer who designed the bridge they drive over going to work, and in their doctor who prescribes medicine they have never heard of, and in the school that educates their children. Human society is built on faith, on trusting others, whether God or other people. Eliminating faith, which is impossible, wouldn't make us more mature, it makes us less human. John Paul II expressed this beautifully in an encyclical that compared faith and reason to two wings. We need them both to if we want to fly in the light of truth. May God bless you. Fr. Dan

LETTER FROM OUR PASTOR

Dear Parishioners,

We have just heard one of the most famous lines in the Bible. It gives us God's own definition of the most important Christian virtue, the very bedrock of our Christian life: faith. The writer of the Letter to the Hebrews tells us what faith is. He writes: "Faith is the realization of what is hoped for

and evidence of things not seen." These are two ways of saying the same thing. "The realization of what is hoped for" means that when we have faith, we are filled with a certainty that God will fulfill his promises, even though they haven't been fulfilled yet. Evidence of things not seen" means that when we have faith, we have a supernatural knowledge, we know with certainty that all the things God

has revealed are true. No one here in this church saw with their physical eyes Jesus rise from the dead, but we know that he is risen. No one here in this room sees with their physical eyes the body and blood of Jesus in the Eucharist, but we know they are there, underneath the appearances of bread and wine. This is the essence of faith: accepting something as true - NOT because our own senses assure us of it, but because the person who tells it to us is trustworthy. The Church that teaches us that Christ rose from the dead, and that Christ is truly present in the Eucharist, is trustworthy. It has weathered the storms of two thousand years, continuing to teach the same doctrine as when it started, continuing to celebrate the same sacraments, and continuing to give saints to this needy world. This faith, this evidence of things not seen with our senses, is one of God's greatest gifts to us. Today the Church is inviting us to appreciate it anew.

CARTA DE NUESTRO PÁRROCO

Queridos Feligreses:

Acabamos de escuchar una de las líneas más famosas de la Biblia. Nos da la definición de Dios. De la virtud cristiana más importante, la base misma de nuestra vida cristiana: la fe. El escritor de la carta a los Hebreos nos dice que la fe es. Escribe: "la fe es la realización de lo que se esperaba y la evidencia de cosas no vistas." Estas son dos maneras de decir lo mismo. "La realización de lo que se espera" significa que cuando tenemos fe, nos llena una certeza de que Dios cumplirá sus promesas, aunque no se hayan cumplido todavía. Evidencia de cosas no vistas "significa que cuando tenemos fe, tenemos un conocimiento sobrenatural, sabemos con certeza que todas las cosas que Dios ha revelado son verdaderas. Nadie aquí en esta iglesia vio con sus ojos físicos que Jesús resucitara de entre los muertos, pero sabemos que él ha resucitado. Nadie aquí en este lugar ve con sus ojos físicos convertido el cuerpo y la sangre de Jesús en la Eucaristía, pero sabemos que están allí, debajo de las apariencias del pan y del vino. Esta es la esencia de la fe: aceptar algo como verdadero – NO porque nuestros sentidos nos aseguran de él, sino porque la persona que nos lo dice es digno de confianza. La Iglesia nos enseña que Cristo se levantó de entre los muertos, y que Cristo está realmente presente en la Eucaristía, es digno de confianza. Ha resistido las tormentas por 2 mil años, continúa enseñando la misma doctrina como cuando empezó, continua celebrando los mismos sacramentos y continua dándole Santos a este mundo necesitado. Esta fe, esta evidencia de lo que no hemos visto con nuestros ojos, es uno de los más grandes regalos de Dios para nosotros. Hoy la iglesia está invitándonos a apreciarlo nuevamente. Muchos de los intelectuales y las élites culturales consideran la fe como algo infantil. Las personas maduras, dicen, no depende de la fe; depende de la ciencia y la razón. Debido a esto, aquellos de nosotros que todavía no valoramos la fe a veces nos avergonzamos de ella. Nos cubrimos en conversaciones en torno al refrigerador pues no queremos que otras personas nos vean. Pero no deberíamos de avergonzarnos. La fe es una parte necesaria de vida plenamente humana. Las personas que nos critican por tener fe en Dios están cometiendo dos errores. En primer lugar, están olvidando que tenemos muy buenas razones que apoyan nuestra fe. No fuimos testigos de la resurrección de Cristo, por ejemplo, pero hubo testigos

que vieron al Cristo resucitado, y los testigos fundaron la iglesia, que ha sufrido más que cualquier organización meramente humana. No fuimos testigos de la creación del universo, pero el orden y la belleza del cosmos, es bastante razonable creer que en efecto era un creador inteligente. Cuanto más estudiamos nuestra fe, cuanto más conocemos a las buenas razones que la sustentan. El segundo error de estos críticos, lo que hacen es olvidar que viven sus vidas y es por fe. Tienen fe en el ingeniero que diseñó el puente sobre el cual conducen para ir a trabajar y en su médico que les recete la medicina de la que nunca han oído hablar, y en la escuela que educa a sus hijos. La sociedad humana se basa en la fe, la confianza en otros, ya sea en Dios o en otras personas. Eliminar la fe, es imposible, no nos hace más maduros, lo que nos hace es menos humanos. Juan Pablo II esto había expresado bellamente en una encíclica comparando la fe y la razón como dos alas. Necesitamos ambos por si queremos volar a la luz de la verdad. Que Dios los bendiga. Padre Dan

19º domingo del Tiempo Ordinario: Para que podamos invertir más de nuestro tiempo y

nuestro talento en construir nuestro tesoro en el cielo.

“Porque donde está tu tesoro, también estará tu corazón.”

Lucas 12:34 Jesús nos anima a edificar nuestro tesoro en

el cielo. El mundo nos alienta a construir nuestro tesoro

en bienes raíces, inversiones y bienes materiales. ¿Cuánto

tiempo estás invirtiendo en construir un tesoro mundano?

¿Cuánto tiempo estás invirtiendo en construir un tesoro

celestial? Para invertir más tiempo en las cosas del cielo,

debes soltar algunas de las cosas de este mundo.

El 15 de agosto celebramos la FIESTA DE LA ASUNCIÓN DE LA VIRGEN MARÍA llevada en cuerpo y alma al cielo. La Asunción de María al cielo es la terminación de la obra de Dios en ella, porque el cuerpo que había dado vida a Dios mismo nunca podía someterse a la corrupción. Las enseñanzas de la iglesia a este respecto fue definida en 1950 aunque tiene raíces muy antiguas que se remontan a los apóstoles y a la iglesia primitiva. En el año 452, en el Concilio de Calcedonia se reunieron los obispos de todo el mundo mediterráneo y el Emperador Romano pidió al Patriarca de Jerusalén que trajera las reliquias de María. El Patriarca explicó al emperador que no había tal cosa como reliquias de María en Jerusalén porque su cuerpo había sido llevado al cielo. La Asunción de María no sólo mira al pasado para conmemorar un acontecimiento histórico, sino que ve hacia el futuro, hacia la eternidad para darnos la seguridad de que también nosotros seguiremos a Nuestra Señora al término de nuestra vida.

RESPECT LIFE: In addressing the horrors of human trafficking,

courage and decision to listen to the cry for help of so many sisters and brothers deprived of their dignity and their freedom, and to

accompany them, defend them, looking for paths to a quick and lasting solution to this crime." - Pope Francis, July 30, 2019
