MASS READINGS FOR NEXT WEEK First Reading: Isaiah 50:5-9 a
Second Reading: James 2:14-18
Gospel Reading: Mark 8:27-35
SEE BEYOND OUTWARD APPEARANCES The phrase "Sunday best" has lost much of its meaning in our
society today. Some lament the loss of people dressing up for
church on Sunday; others think it's a healthy sign that we're
as casual in attire gathered before the Lord as we are
elsewhere. No matter which school of thought on this topic
we belong to, James would probably chastise us. In either
case, we are still focused on external appearance, mistaking it
for some sort of favored position before God. True, James
criticizes the community that favors the rich and well-dressed
while ostracizing the poorly clothed, but even more he
criticizes the making of distinctions, making choices based on
criteria that having nothing to do with the reign of God. James
might turn our attention to the reign of God described by
Isaiah, in which people are healed and the earth becomes ripe
to bear fruit. Jesus today is focused on this reign of God,
healing a Gentile man in a region hostile to his Jewish faith,
not mindful of the man's origins or clothing or status or ability
to repay. Isaiah, James, and Jesus in Mark's Gospel all call us
to look more deeply to find where the will of God needs to be
done, and has been done, on earth as in heaven. Copyright (c)

RITE OF CHRISTIAN INITIATION FOR ADULTS This is the process of initiating adults and older children into the
Catholic Christian Community. Our program of RCIA is more than
just a classroom. It is a journey into the faith, into a personal
relationship with God. RCIA is not just for Non-Catholics. Our
program is for unbaptized, already baptized Christians, and
already baptized Catholics seeking Confirmation. We invite all of
the faithful, as RCIA is for the entire parish community. It is a
wonderful way to grow the faith of the community as well as a
continuation of conversion. Interested? Please call Diane Smith
at 240-347-6174. First Class begins on Monday, September 17th
at 6 PM, Saint James Church in Boonsboro. Classes will rotate
among the three parishes.

C & O CANAL DAYS BAKE SALE On behalf of the Church, who benefited from the $701.00 final total
for the Cake Walk at the C & O Canal Days this year, I personally want
to thank all those who contributed baked goods. The profits this year
came from selling the cakes and cupcakes to a very small crowd on
Saturday. The cake walks were bringing in about $5.00 every half hour
until we started selling the cakes. The cakes went for up to $30.00 and
the smallest were sold for $7.00. We had 90 cakes the first day. On
Sunday, we started with 40 and we received 15 more. We had those
who brought 6 cakes who signed up for none. We had bakers from
St. Joseph's Church who also added to our numbers as well as our
Cake Lady from Calvary Temple. Each year, since the Cake Walk
began, our Parish at St. Augustine, has benefited by the generosity
and time that Jenny and Gary DePalma take to make over 20 cakes.
Thanks is all I have, but God's blessings will certainly be a reward that
has no words needed. My helpers and our bakers make planning for
next year something to which I look forward. - Patty Patterson

Iglesia Católica San José Hagerstown, Maryland Boletín Informativo de la Comunidad Hispana
Desde el escritorio del Padre Juan Antonio
Estimados Parroquianos,
Exortacion Apostolica Amoris Laetitia
La ternura del abrazo Cristo ha introducido como emblema de sus discípulos sobre todo la
ley del amor y del don de sí a los demás (cf. Mt 22,39; Jn13,34), y lo
hizo a través de un principio que un padre o una madre suelen
testimoniar en su propia existencia: «Nadie tiene amor más grande
que el que da la vida por sus amigos» (Jn 15,13). Fruto del amor son
también la misericordia y el perdón. En esta línea, es muy
emblemática la escena que muestra a una adúltera en la explanada del
templo de Jerusalén, rodeada de sus acusadores, y luego sola con
Jesús que no la condena y la invita a una vida más digna (cf. Jn 8,1-
11). En el horizonte del amor, central en la experiencia cristiana del
matrimonio y de la familia, se destaca también otra virtud, algo
ignorada en estos tiempos de relaciones frenéticas y superficiales: la
ternura. Acudamos al dulce e intenso Salmo 131. Como se advierte
también en otros textos (cf. Ex 4,22; Is 49,15; Sal 27,10), la unión
entre el fiel y su Señor se expresa con rasgos del amor paterno o
materno. Aquí aparece la delicada y tierna intimidad que existe entre
la madre y su niño, un recién nacido que duerme en los brazos de su
madre después de haber sido amamantado. Se trata —como lo
expresa la palabra hebrea gamul— de un niño ya destetado, que se
aferra conscientemente a la madre que lo lleva en su pecho. Es
entonces una intimidad consciente y no meramente biológica. Por eso
el salmista canta: «Tengo mi interior en paz y en silencio, como un
niño destetado en el regazo de su madre» (Sal 131,2). De modo
paralelo, podemos acudir a otra escena, donde el profeta Oseas
coloca en boca de Dios como padre estas palabras conmovedoras:
«Cuando Israel era joven, lo amé [...] Yo enseñe a andar a Efraín, lo
alzaba en brazos [...] Con cuerdas humanas, con correas de amor lo
atraía; era para ellos como el que levanta a un niño contra su mejilla,
me inclinaba y le daba de comer» (11,1.3-4).
Papa Francisco N. 27-28
Para comunicarse con el Padre Juan Antonio Por favor llamar al teléfono de la oficina:
301-797-9445 ext. 203 El Padre Juan A. estará en la oficina los
lunes, y viernes de 11 am a 5 pm.
Domingo XXIII del Tiempo Ordinario Todo lo ha hecho bien. Con estas palabras reaccionó la
multitud cuando se dio cuenta de que Jesús había curado al
sordomudo. Son muchos, por lo demás, los textos
evangélicos que relatan las obras buenas de Jesús en favor
del hombre. De modo que san Pedro dirá de Jesús, en uno
de sus discursos a los primeros cristianos, que "pasó
haciendo el bien". Juan Pablo II nos dice que "la caridad de
los cristianos es la prolongación de la presencia de Cristo
que se da a sí mismo". Sí, Cristo desea seguir haciendo el
bien entre nosotros y en nuestros días mediante los
cristianos. Cristo desea seguir liberando al hombre de las
necesidades materiales, de las enfermedades, de las
calamidades naturales, de los males espirituales mediante
los cristianos. De verdad que es hermoso constatar la
generosidad de tantos millones de cristianos para socorrer
en cualquier parte del mundo a los más necesitados. De
verdad que Cristo debe estar contento porque puede
continuar haciendo el bien en la historia de los hombres
mediante los cristianos. Al mismo tiempo, como creyentes
cristianos, hemos de hacernos algunas preguntas: ¿Hago
yo personalmente todo el bien que puedo hacer? ¿Busco
que otros, singular o comunitariamente, hagan el bien?
¿Cuál es el tipo de bien que más me gusta hacer: el material,
el espiritual o ambos a la vez? ¿Estoy convencido de que a
través de mí, Cristo glorioso continúa presente entre los
hombres haciendo el bien? Y no olvidemos que hacer el
bien desinteresadamente a los hombres es una manera
estupenda de liberarlos.

La próxima semana: 09/16 /18 Pastoral Ministerial de Jovenes
Lecturas del próximo domingo El hombre es el ser asistido por Dios, en quien Dios muestra su
presencia constante y eficaz. Esa presencia divina resulta ser la roca
en que se fundan todas las grandes certezas del hombre; el faro
luminoso que orienta al hombre en la oscuridad; el estandarte que
le enardece en la batalla por ser y hacerse hombre cada día. A modo
de conclusión, se puede decir que quien excluye la solidaridad, la
escucha, el dolor, la presencia divina de la concepción del hombre,
no sabe realmente qué es el hombre. "Quien quiera salvar su vida la
perderá, pero quien pierda su vida por mí y por el Evangelio la
salvará", nos dice Jesús. Es la gran paradoja cristiana, es decir,
humana. En términos paradójicos, Jesucristo plantea la gran batalla
de la existencia humana. Es la batalla entre el egoísmo y la entrega,
entre la seducción del yo y la atracción de Dios, entre el culto a la
personalidad y el culto a la verdadera humildad. Normalmente, pero
de modo equivocado, se piensa que siendo egoísta se va uno a
realizar, a salvar su identidad, a lograr una personalidad de gran
talla. El resultado después de un cierto tiempo es la conciencia de
estar buscando lo imposible, la frustración por tantas energías
gastadas inútilmente, y ojalá también, al darse cuenta de haber
errado el camino, aceptar el propio error y enderezar los pasos por
el camino justo. Ese camino justo es el de vaciarse de sí para
llenarse de Dios, el de darse a los demás desinteresadamente sin
buscar compensaciones de ningún género, es el de la humildad
profunda de quien sabe y acepta que todo lo que es y tiene proviene
de Dios y lo debe poner al servicio de los demás. Éste es el camino
de la salvación. Éste es el camino de la auténtica realización del
hombre. Éste es el camino de la paradoja cristiana. Hermano,
caminemos juntos y alegres por él. Es el camino que Cristo nos ha
enseñado a sus discípulos.
