The blind man replied, “Master, I want to see.” Jesus told him, “God your way; your faith has saved you.” Immediately he received his sight and followed him on the way. (Mark 10:46-52)

After healing the blind man in today’s Gospel Jesus told him

to go, to be on his way. But the man decided to follow Jesus. Being a

disciple of Jesus is a choice. The stewardship way of life likewise

involves a choice, in fact many choices. We choose to be grateful, we

choose to live generously, and we choose to trust that God will

always provide for our needs. These are three choices central to the

stewardship way of life. What choices will we make this week that

give witness to our decision to follow Christ?

The 30TH Sunday in Ordinary Time ~ XXX Domingo Ordinario

El hombre ciego respondio, "Maestro, deseo ver." Jesus le dijo: "Dios contigo, tu fe te ha sanado." Inmediatamente pudo ver y lo siguio en el camino. (Marcos 10:46-52)

Después de sanar al hombre ciego en la narración del Evangelio de hoy, Jesús le dijo que

siguiera su camino. Pero el hombre decidió seguir a Jesús. Ser discípulo de Jesús es una elección. La

corresponsabilidad como forma de vida involucra una elección, de

hecho, muchas elecciones. Nosotros elegimos ser agradecidos, nosotros

elegimos vivir generosamente, y nosotros elegimos confiar en que Dios

proveerá siempre de nuestras necesidades. Estas tres elecciones son el

centro de la corresponsabilidad como forma de vida. ¿Qué elecciones

haremos nosotros esta semana que sean testimonio de nuestra decisión

de seguir a Cristo?

Reformadora del Carmelo, Madre de

las Carmelitas Descalzas y de los Car-

melitas Descalzos; "mater spiritual-

ium" (título debajo de su estatua en la

basílica vaticana); patrona de los escri-

tores católicos y Doctora de la Iglesia

(1970): La primera mujer, que junto a

Santa Catalina de Sena recibe este

título. Nació en Ávila, España, el 28 de

marzo de 1515.

Su nombre, Teresa de Cepeda y Ahu-

mada, hija de Alonso Sánchez de Ce-

peda y Beatriz Dávila Ahumada. En su

casa eran 12 hijos. Tres del primer

matrimonio de Don Alonso y nueve del

segundo, entre estos últ imos,

Teresa. Escribe en su autobiografía:

"Por la gracia de Dios, todos mis her-

manos y medios hermanos se asemeja-

ban en la virtud a mis buenos padres,

menos yo". De niños, ella y Rodrigo, su

hermano, eran muy aficionados a leer

vidas de santos, y se emocionaron al

saber que los que ofrecen su vida por

amor a Cristo reciben un gran premio

en el cielo. Así que dispusieronse irse a

tierras de mahometanos a declararse

amigos de Jesús y así ser martirizados

para conseguir un buen puesto en el

cielo. Afortunadamente, por el camino

se encontraron con un tío suyo que los

regresó a su hogar. Entonces dis-

pusieronse construir una celda en el

solar de la casa e irse a rezar allá de vez

en cuando, sin que nadie los molestara

ni los distrajese.

Oración a Santa Teresa de Jesús

Nada te turbe, nada te espante. Todo se pasa. Dios no se muda.

La paciencia todo lo alcanza. Quien a Dios tiene,

nada le falta. Sólo Dios basta.

St. Alphonsus Liguori wrote:

“Of all devotions, that of adoring Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament is the

greatest after the Sacraments, the one dearest to God and the one most

helpful to us”. The Eucharist is a priceless treasure: By not only

celebrating the Eucharist, but also by praying before It outside of Mass,

we are enabled to make contact with the very wellsprings of Grace ..."

You are invited to participate in Eucharistic Adoration each Friday

Adoration begins after 8:15 Mass; ends with Benediction at 11:50 am.

You can spend a few minutes, an hour or as much time as you desire.
