Prayer to Our Lady of Guadalupe By Archbishop Gomez
Holy Virgin of Guadalupe, Queen of Angels and Mother of the
Americas, we fly to you as your beloved children. We ask you to
intercede for us with your Son, as you did at the wedding in Cana.
Pray for us, loving Mother, and gain for our nation and world, and
for all families and loved ones, the protection of your holy
angels, that we may be spared the worst of this illness. For those
already afflicted, we ask you to obtain the grace of healing and
deliverance. Hear the cries of those who are vulnerable and
fearful, wipe away their tears and help them trust. In this time of
trial and testing, teach all of us in the Church to love one
another and to be patient and kind. Help us to bring the peace of
Jesus to our land and to our hearts. We come to you with confidence
knowing that you truly are our compassionate mother, health of the
sick and cause of our joy. Shelter us in the embrace of your arms,
help us always to know the love of your Son, Jesus. Amen.

Catholic Social Teaching
15th Sunday in Ordinary Time: This Sunday we hear the familiar
story of the sower and the seed. In the end this parable is about
abundance, God makes the seed bear fruit many times over. Mother
Teresa once said, “If you cannot feed 100 people, feed just one.”
If we are fruitful recipients of the Word of God, how much will God
multiply that good in the world? How does God’s word move us to
share abundantly through a simple gesture of offering a package of
crackers to the homeless or bringing food to a local pantry? 15to
Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario: Este domingo escuchamos la historia
familiar del sembrador y la semilla. Al final, esta parábola es
sobre abundancia, Dios hace que la semilla dé fruto muchas veces.
La Madre Teresa dijo una vez “si no puedes alimentar a 100
personas, alimenta solo a una”. Si somos receptores fructíferos de
la Palabra de Dios ¿cuánto más multiplicará Dios la bondad en el
mundo? ¿Cómo nos mueve la palabra de Dios a compartir
abundantemente a través del simple gesto de ofrecer un paquete de
galletas a los que no tienen hogar o de llevar comida a la despensa
de alimentos local gratuita?
The Meaning of Life Our modern culture proclaims with all its
force: What you do and what you have are the most important things.
It is a de-ception that has led whole generations down the
well-trodden path toward lives of quiet desperation. But it is a
lie that is reinforced with such regularity that we have grown to
believe it, at least subconsciously, and have shaped our lives
around it. The whole focus of our culture is on doing and having.
Do-ing and having are natural, normal, and necessary aspects of our
daily lives; the challenge is to do and have in accord with our
essential purpose. In this task oriented culture, one of the real
dangers is to slip into an episodic mode of living. What I mean is,
the happenings of our day-to-day lives can become episodic, one
after another, like episodes of a soap opera. In a soap opera there
is always something happening, drama, people abusing people, people
talking about others, and plotting and scheming, but nothing
meaningful ever happens. Their lives are filled with
superficialities, and they are con-stantly restless and miserable.
When the days and weeks of our lives become like this, we grow
depressed, disillusioned, and miserably unhappy. The reason is that
without a clear sense of the purpose and mean-ing of our lives, the
emptiness is overwhelming. There are moments of pleasure, but they
are brief in a long succession of twenty-four hour days. Life is
the gathering of truth. Any truth we discover must not be allowed
to remain isolated in one area of our lives, and certainly must not
be allowed to remain merely in our minds. Rather, any truth life
reveals to us must filter into every as-pect of our lives, like
blood to the cells of the body. Life is one. Truth should be lived.
What we do in the span of our lives may bring us financial rewards,
status, fame, power, and unimaginable possessions, but lasting
happiness and fulfillment are not the by products of doing and
having. The truth is a startling contrast to the present culture’s
credo. Who you become is infinitely more important than what you do
or what you have. I am often amused at how scared some people are
to wonder, or ask, what God might want for them or from them. They
imagine that God might want them to become a missionary in some
obscure, poverty-stricken country, or want them to become a
monk...nun...or that God wants them to do something they don’t want
to do. What is God’s dream for you? Do you ever wonder? Let me tell
you. God doesn’t want to control you, stifle you, manipu-late you,
or force you to do something you don’t want to do. Quite the
opposite. When was the last time God forced you to do something or
stopped you from doing anything? But if we can find the courage
within our sometimes timid hearts to turn to God and ask, “God what
is your dream for me and my life?” God will whisper in reply, “Be
all you can be. The best-version-of-yourself.” Once we discover it
and place this pur-pose at the center of our lives, everything
begins to make sense. There is purpose and meaning to our
lives.
