Twenty-Second Sunday in Ordinary Time August 30, 2020

Twenty-Second Sunday in Ordinary TimeToday's Reading: Jer 20:7–9; Ps 63:2, 3–4, 5–6, 8–9; Rom 12:1–2; Mt 16:21–27We are invited to reflect on the path of discipleship offered by Jesus in our readings today. Jesus, now seen by the disciples as Messiah and Christ, begins to describe most fully what this means: he will not march into Jerusalem filled with God’s power like a conquering general. His path is like that of Jeremiah; he will be rejected and mocked. His path is like that described by Paul, offering his body as a living sacrifice. Jesus summons his followers down the same path of death and resurrection, to live the radical paradox that “whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.” Loving and trusting God will entail self-surrender, leading us to joy in service to others. We will learn to let go of what we desire and what we think we need, trusting God to provide what we truly need.

The Temper It seems that Jesus is pretty hard on Peter in today’s Gospel, when he calls him “Satan” for questioning Jesus’ prediction of his passion. The scene echoes Matthew’s story of the temptations of Jesus (4:1–11) when Jesus encounters Satan, also called the “tempter.” Satan had sought to draw Jesus into thinking about his own needs instead of attending to God’s purposes. Peter was an unwitting tempter, anxiously reacting out of his own fears and misunderstanding. This story speaks about Jesus’ identity and vocation, and also about our own. As God’s beloved,

sent out to witness to the gospel, we are offered a foundation and a purpose to our lives. There is much in life that tempts us, stirs up false fears, or draws us to the attractive but superficial. Jesus provides us a way forward. He named the temptations that he faced, so they had no power over him. As he followed his path, he placed his full trust in his Father.

God of Dialogue Our reading from Jeremiah contains some of the harshest language you will find in the Bible toward God. In despair and fury, Jeremiah accuses God of deceiving and abusing him. He pours out his rage at God for ruining his life. He wants to quit God, but finds it impossible. In later verses, he alternates between giving thanks to God and wishing he had never been born. Remarkably, after all this, Jeremiah resumes his prophetic ministry. As with Abraham (Genesis 18), Moses (Exodus 32), Job, and various psalms, Jeremiah pushes back against God. God receives and blesses their prayer, and their relationship is stronger for it. Our God is a God of dialogue, who encourages us to speak our mind and heart in full honesty. Our Trinitarian God is in eternal conversation within God’s self, and with all of creation. God invites honest dialogue, always grounded in love, within God’s Church, and between the Church and the world.

Did you Know?Teach children about dealing with disappointment Many young children are facing a whole new world: less playdates, fewer in-person classes, changing sports requirements, wearing masks, waving instead of giving hugs. While this is hard, it’s a great time to talk to your children about how to handle disappointment when things change. Talk to your children about God’s love for us and how even if we struggle to understand what is happening, God is with us through it all.

From the Parish CenterThe Cross of JesusThe perception of a cross changed dramatically after Jesus’ crucifix-ion. Before that event, death on a cross was not only horrible, it was degrading. It was a penalty reserved only for the most wretched of criminals. The word “glory” would not have found its way into the same sentence containing the word “cross.” But all that changed with Jesus. Over time, believers began to venerate and honor the cross. They painted, sculpted, and carved images of it. Many lost their own lives for their association with it. Today our reverence for and relationship with the cross recalls little of the contempt originally associated with it. As it has been through the ages, it is our perception of the cross that determines how we follow Jesus. -- Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.*Stewardship of Treasure

Twenty-Second Sunday in Ordinary Time August 30, 2020

Vigésimo Segundo Domingo del Tiempo OrdinarioLecturas de hoy: Jer 20:7–9; Sal 63 (62):2, 3–4, 5–6, 8–9; Rom 12:1–2; Mt 16:21–27El tentadorParece que Jesús es bastante duro con Pedro, de acuerdo con el Evangelio de hoy, cuando lo llama “Satanás” por cuestionar la predicción de Jesús sobre su pasión. La escena hace eco a lo que dice Mateo acerca de las tentaciones de Jesús (4:1-11) cuando Jesús se encuentra con Satanás, también llamado “el tentador”. Satanás había buscado atraer a Jesús para que pensara en sus propias necesidades en lugar de atender a los propósitos de Dios. Pedro fue un tentador involuntario, reaccionando con impaciencia a causa de sus propios miedos y malentendidos.

Esta historia habla de la identidad y vocación de Jesús y también de la nuestra. Como amados de Dios, enviados a dar testimonios del Evangelio, se nos ofrece un fundamento y un propósito para nuestras vidas. Hay muchas cosas en la vida que nos tientan, despiertan falsos temores o nos atraen a lo atractivo pero superficial. Jesús nos proporciona un camino a seguir. Él nombró las tentaciones que enfrentó para que no tuvieran poder sobre él; y mientras seguía su camino, depositó toda su confianza en su Padre.

Dio de diálogoNuestra lectura del libro de Jeremías incluye uno de los lenguajes más duros hacia Dios que encontrarás en la Biblia. En la desesperación y la furia, Jeremías acusa a Dios de engañarlo y maltratarlo. Pone su rabia contra Dios por haberle arruinado su vida. Quiere dejar a Dios, pero le resulta imposible. En unos versículos más adelante, alterna entre dar gracias a Dios y desear no haber nacido. Extraordinariamente, después de todo, Jeremías reanuda su ministerio profético.

Como Abraham (Génesis 18), Moisés (Éxodo 32), Job y varios salmos, Jeremías retrocede contra Dios; pero Dios recibe y bendice su oración y por eso su relación es más fuerte. Nuestro Dios es un Dios del diálogo, quien nos anima a decir lo que pensamos y lo que sentimos con total honestidad. Nuestro Dios trinitario está en una conversación eterna dentro de Dios, y con toda la creación. Dios nos invita al diálogo honesto, siempre basado el amor, dentro de la Iglesia de Dios y el mundo.

Del Centro ParroquialLa Cruz de JesúsLa percepción de una cruz cambió dramáticamente después de la crucifixión de Jesús. Antes de ese suceso, la muerte en una cruz no era tan solo horrible, sino que era degradante. Era un castigo reservado únicamente para los más horrendos criminales. La palabra “gloria” no habría hallado su lugar en una oración que contuviera la palabra “cruz”. Mas todo esto cambió con Jesús. Con el pasar del tiempo, los creyentes comenzaron a venerar y a honrar la Cruz. La pintaron, esculpieron, y tallaron imágenes de la misma. Muchos perdieron su vida por asociarse con ella. Hoy nuestra reverencia y relación con la cruz poco recuerda el desprecio al que originalmente estuvo asociada. Con el curso de los años, es nuestra percepción de la Cruz la que determina cómo seguimos a Jesús. -- Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co. *Corresponsabilidad de Tesoro

San Greogorio Magno Gregorio nació en Roma, donde posteriormente cursó estudios de Derecho, llegando a ser Prefecto de la ciudad a los 34 años. No obstante su éxito, a la muerte de su padre, se dedicó a la construcción de conventos, haciendo de su casa uno de ellos. Abraza la vida de monasterio y a los 35 años es ordenado diácono y enviado como representante papal a la actual Turquía. Volvió a Roma como secretario del Papa Plagio II, y a su muerte, fue escogido unánimemente por el clero como el obispo de Roma. Como tal, dio firmeza al papado independizándolo del Emperador, siendo el primer monje en llegar al papado, tenía un gran amor por la liturgia y decretó que se recopilaran los himnos antiguos de la cristiandad, llevando a cabo una reforma litúrgica y creando un Misal nuevo que combinaba varios ritos. Gracias a él se renovó el canto en la liturgia y en su honor, se le llamó canto gregoriano. Se le da el calificativo de Magno o Grande por la influencia de su papado así como de sus escritos. —Miguel Arias, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

¿Sabía Usted?Enseñe a los niños a lidiar con la decepciónMuchos niños pequeños se enfrentan a un mundo completamente nuevo: menos fechas de juego, menos clases en persona, cambios en los requisitos deportivos, uso de mascarillas, saludos de lejos en lugar de abrazos. Si bien esto es difícil, es un buen momento para hablar con sus hijos sobre cómo manejar la decepción cuando las cosas cambian. Platique con sus hijos sobre el amor de Dios para nosotros y cómo aunque luchemos por comprender lo que está sucediendo, Dios está con nosotros para sobrellevarlo todo.
