ST. JOSEPH’S CATHOLIC CHURCH

From the Pastor’s Laptop

Father Mark Wagner St. John Vianney, the

patron saint of parish priests, once said: “Oh, how great is a priest! The priest will not u n d e r s t a n d t h e greatness of his office till he is in Heaven. If he understood it on earth, he would die, not of fear, but of love… The priesthood is the love of the Heart of Jesus.”

Only in heaven will we understand how important the role of the priest is in the plan of God. God’s plan was to save us in Christ, and that the salvation would reach us in every age by means of His “other Christs,” the priests.

We can see this plan of God clearly in today’s reading from the Gospel of Mark (Mark 6:7-13). (I knew I liked the Gospel of Mark!) In this short passage we see that the apostles were the first priests, sent out with the same powers that the Catholic Church says belong to priests. The Catholic Church teaches that priests have the power of exorcism. Any priest can perform “minor exorcisms” (major exorcisms require permission from the local bishop). The Church says that priests

(and deacons) have the authority to preach homilies. The Church also teaches that only priests can use holy oil to administer the sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick which gives healing and forgiveness of sin to the sick person.

Here are the words of today’s Gospel which reveal to us how God shows His love for us by the gift of the priesthood: “Jesus summoned the Twelve and began to send them out two by two and gave them authority over unclean spirits… So they went off and preached repentance.

Religious Education

Respect Life

“Since everything is interrelated, concern for the protection of nature is also

incompatible with the justification of abortion. How can we genuinely teach the

importance of concern for other vulnerable beings, however troublesome or

inconvenient they may be, if we fail to protect a human embryo, even when its

presence is uncomfortable and creates difficulties? ‘If personal and social

sensitivity towards the acceptance of the new life is lost, then other forms of

acceptance that are valuable for society also wither away’.”

— Pope Francis in Laudato Si, 120

By Courtney Vallejo, parishioner

I realize that the title of this article might have struck some of you as odd. A little different from what we’re used to seeing in the bulletin, but after some reflection time it’s a question I’d like to ask each of us. What If Everyone Yelled During Mass?

The following article comes from a blog post I wrote a few years ago for Catholicmom.com, when my kids were younger. My son was four at the time and my daughter was five. My son had started to try to say the Mass parts like his big sister, but what I was finding is that he would only say the first and last word and when he got to that last word he would yell it. At the end of the response to Jesus being raised above the altar before Communion, he’d yell HEALED at the end of the response, “Only say the word and I shall be healed.” Now traditionally this is a time when people are quiet and prayerful and

now it’s being interrupted by a little boy yelling. Or course I’m worried that it’s distracting but I’m also worried people will just think he’s yelling for no reason.

I want to tell everyone (after he does this) “Did you understand him, he's saying the Mass parts. As his mom, I generally “shhhh” him after his loud outburst and remind him not to yell, but recently I’ve been catching myself when I do this. Something doesn’t seem right in my reprimand. He’s participating in Mass, he’s excited to be responding with everyone and he’s saying the word healed in response to Jesus’ presence. While I don’t want him

yelling and distracting others during Mass, his zeal is inspiring. Shouldn’t we all be joyfully yelling our responses during Church? Shouldn’t we show our excitement about what we’re saying?

So where is the balance? I'm not saying bullhorns and balloons, I'm just saying I don’t want to squash his enthusiasm for Mass and for participating; instead I want to encourage him to participate with us. I’m left trying to encourage him to respond in Mass, while reminding him we don’t have to yell. But I’m starting to think maybe we should! Maybe the 4 year old has it right and maybe he’s the one teaching me instead of vice-versa.

“Shout with joy to the Lord, all the earth; break into song; sing

praise. Sing praise to the Lord with the harp, with the harp, and

melodious song. With trumpets and sound of the horn shout with joy to

the King, the Lord.” (Psalm 98:4-6 )

Parish Stewardship — a way of life

By: Maria F. Delgado-Braun

If you attend the 5:45pm Mass at St. Joseph’s, you are sure to find Deann faithfully serving as sacristan. Deann devotes a great portion of her time to our St. Joseph’s parish where she is an active member of the Liturgical Ministry. Deann serves as EM, lector and sacristan for our daily Masses and coordinates the Friday night Holy Hours. Her love for our Lord present in the Blessed Sacrament is the source of her spiritual life and prayer. Besides these responsibilities, she c o o r d i n a t e s t h e F i r s t H o l y Communion Masses and makes sure that the children, parents and catechists know all that is expected. During the last three weeks prior to the grand date when the children will receive the Lord in the Eucharist, Deann gives them instruction and covers all the logistics associated with the Mass. She practices with the children and teaches them how to receive with reverence and love. We are so blessed to have great stewards of their talents at our St. Joseph’s parish, and Deann is one great example. Thank you, Deann!

Boletín Parroquial en Español! DEL LAPTOP DEL PÁRROCO, Padre Mark

INTENCIONES DE ORACIÓN DEL SANTO PADRE

Padre Mark Wagner San Juan Vianney, el santo

p a t r ó n d e l o s s a c e r d o t e s parroquiales, una vez dijo: “O, ¡qué grande es el sacerdote! El sacerdote no comprenderá la grandeza de su oficina hasta llegar al cielo. Si la comprendiera en la tierra, se moriría, no de miedo, sino de amor.… El sacerdocio es el amor del corazón de Jesús.”

Sólo en el cielo comprenderemos la importancia del papel del sacerdote en el plan de Dios. Su plan era de salvarnos en Cristo, y que esa salvación nos llegaría en todas las etapas a través de sus “otros Cristos,” los sacerdotes.

Podemos ver aquel plan de Dios claramente en la lectura del Evangelio de hoy del Evangelio de San Marcos (Marcos 6:7-13). (Yo sabía que ¡me encantaba el Evangelio de San Marcos!) En ese pasaje breve, vemos que los apóstoles eran los primeros sacerdotes, mandados con los mismos poderes que la Iglesia Católica dice que pertenecen a los sacerdotes. La Iglesia Católica enseña que los sacerdotes tienen el poder del exorcismo. Cualquier sa cerdote pued e ha cer un “exorcismo menor” (los exorcismos mayores requieren el permiso del obispo local). La Iglesia dice que los sacerdotes (y los diáconos) tienen la autoridad de predicar homilías. La Iglesia también enseña que sólo los sacerdotes pueden usar los santos olios para administrar el sacramento de Unción de los Enfermos, lo cual

da sanación y perdón de pecados de las personas enfermas.

Aquí están la palabras del Evangelio de hoy, las cuales nos revelan cómo Dios demuestra su amor para con nosotros con el regalo del sacerdocio: “Jesús llamó a los Doce y los envió de dos en dos, dándoles poder sobre los espíritus impuros… Entonces fueron a predicar, exhortando a la conversión. Los Doce expulsaron a muchos demonios y curaron a numerosos enfermos, ungiéndolos con óleo.” (Mark 6:7, 12-13)

Esta Semana

“El Plan de Amor de Dios” Universal La política. Para que la responsabilidad política sea vivida a todos los niveles como una alta forma de caridad. Por la Evangelización Los pobres en América Latina. Para que ante las desigualdades sociales, los cristianos de América Latina den testimonio de amor a los pobres y contribuyan a una sociedad más fraterna.

CORRESPONSABILIDAD (STEWARDSHIP)

Por: Maria F. Delgado-Braun

Leer, Meditar, Orar y Vivir

Llamados y enviados a dar testimonio

Padre Hamilton Suarez El evangelio nos recuerda el envío

de los apóstoles, esta acción del envío anticipa la vida de la Iglesia y les da las condiciones para que sean fecundos en la misión, Les exige un comportamiento sencillo y totalmente desinteresado; conservar el espíritu de pobreza, ricos solo por la vocación recibida y por la gracia; y gran confianza en la providencia quien los sostendrá en la misión. El apóstol no debe prevenirse ante la dificultad de la misión. Nos sorprende que Jesús manda a los doce sin nada, lo que nos recuerda que la vida del enviado es sostenida por el mismo que obra a través de Él. Porque Él los ha elegido y los ha enviado, y El llevara a cobo esta buena obra, si sus discípulos saben confiarse solo a Él. Si no se predica así el Evangelio, con desinterés y entrega total, ni es aceptado, ni convence.

El papa Pablo VI hablaba de la necesidad de testigos: Dar testimonio de Cristo no solo significa hablar de Él, sino sobre todo mostrar lo que realiza en nosotros.

Por otra parte los destinatarios de la Palabra de Dios tienen un deber que cumplir: aceptarla dócilmente, reconociendo en el profeta o apóstol al enviado de Dios. El que rechaza y no escucha a los ministros del Señor, resiste la gracia y se cierra el camino de la salvación.

Todos tanto los enviados como los destinatarios, deben saber vivir en la precariedad de medios, que nos previene de la tentación de ofrecer otra cosa en lugar de Cristo. Al mismo tiempo puede indicarnos no que debamos carecer de todo para servir a Jesús, sino más bien que LLAMADOS por El, todo lo nuestro queda

subordinado a la misión recibida. Estamos cerca de la celebración

del segundo centenario del nacimiento de san Juan Bosco, uno de mis santos patrones. En sus memorias del oratorio explica que, antes de entrar en el seminario, tomo la determinación de no hacer más maniobras con sus manos que parecían, estos juegos como de mago. El mismo anteriormente se había servido de sus habilidades para atraer a otros a Jesús. Pero en ese momento se impone la grandeza del sacerdocio y el deseo de configurarse de manera más perfecta con Cristo para entregarse a la salvación de las almas.

La misión de la predicación del Reino, conlleva siempre una ascesis para que también nuestros talentos naturales, recibidos de Dios, no se limiten a nosotros mismos, sino que sirvan para el Señor. También a san Juan Bosco le sirvieron todas sus cualidades pero de una manera nueva en su servicio y misión con los jóvenes.

Que como santa Teresita del Niño Jesús, nosotros asumamos con generosidad dentro de nuestra misión la oración GENEROSA por las vocaciones. Ella constantemente tenia presentes estas palabras de Jesús: “Levantad los ojos y mirad, como mi cielo hay lugares vacíos, os toca a vosotros llenarlos; vosotros sois mis Moisés orando sobre el monte. Pedidme obreros y yo os los enviare, no espero otra cosa que una plegaria, un suspiro de vuestro corazón”.

Además de estas , ella coordina las Misas para la Primera Comunión y se asegura que los niños, padres, y catequistas sepan desempeñar todo lo que se espera de ellos. Durante las tres semanas antes de la gran fecha cuando los niños recibirán al Señor en la Santa Eucaristía, Deann les enseña y cubre todos los puntos asociados con la Misa. Ella practica con los niños y les muestra como recibir con reverencia y amor. ¡Estamos bendecidos en St. Joseph’s de tener personas que dan sus talentos generosamente, y Deann es una de ellas, gracias Deann!
