Reflection

Jesus was able to free the man from the unclean spirit within him. What do you hope Jesus will free you from?

What are the evils in today's world that you pray God will free us from?

80 South Market Street, San José, CA 95113-2321 408-283-8100 www.stjosephcathedral.org ,

“Then they came to Capernaum,and on the sabbath Jesus entered the synagogue and taught.

The people were astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as one having authority and not as the scribes.

In their synagogue was a man with an unclean spirit; he cried out, ‘What have you to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth?

Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are—the Holy One of God!’

Jesus rebuked him and said, ‘Quiet! Come out of him!’ The unclean spirit convulsed him and with a loud cry came out of him.

All were amazed and asked one another, ‘What is this? A new teaching with authority.

He commands even the unclean spirits and they obey him.’ His fame spread everywhere throughout the whole region of Galilee.’”

Mark 1:21-28

Annual Diocesan Appeal 2018 A collaboration in which every parish contributes to-ward the support of ministries and services rendered by our Diocese of San Jose. The 2018 Cathedral parish goal is $135,500. Each household taking part in the campaign helps the Cathedral parish reach its goal to-ward funding education, training and services to the faithful of our Diocese.

If we achieve 100% participation, we will not only match but surpass last year’s success! When contribu-tions collected surpass the goal, our parish is rebated in order for this revenue to serve diverse needs.

Here are some of the ministries and services that your ADA gift funds:

Evangelization and Catechetical Ministry, the Institute for Leadership in Ministry, Social Ministry, Hispanic Apostolate, Worship, the Office for Protection of Chil-dren and Vulnerable Adults, Ministry in the jails, Priests, Retired priests, Deacons, Seminarians—studies and housing—Vocations, Tribunal, Operational Ser-vices at the Chancery such as Human Resources, Facil-ities, Archives, Stewardship and Development and Communications Services.

The Cathedral Basilica is also a direct beneficiary of ADA support.

Please give some thought to a pledge this week. A pledge does not need to be fulfilled immediately but during the course of the year if this is more convenient for you.

Llamado Anual Diocesano 2018 Es una colaboración en la que cada parroquia contribuye al financia-miento de los servicios y ministerios otorgados por nuestra Diócesis de San José. La meta del 2017 que le toca a la Catedral recaudar es $135,500 Hay sobres de contribución en la entrada de la Catedral. Cada hogar que participa ayuda a la comunidad parroquial cumplir con la meta. Con un 100% de participación de todos, no sólo lograremos el éxito del año pasado sino ¡lo superaremos! Estos son algunos de los ministerios y servi-cios que el LAD paga: Evangelización y el Catecismo, el Instituto para el Liderazgo Ministerial, el Ministerio Social, el Apostolado Hispano, la Fe, la Oficina para la Protección de Niños y Adultos Vulnerables, el minis-terio a los encarcelados, los Sacerdotes—activos y jubilados, los Diáconos, Seminaristas—sus estudios y el hospedaje– las Vocaciones, el Tribunal, los Servicios operativos tales como la Oficina de Personal, Manteni-miento, los Archivos, Administración y Desarrollo y Comunicación.

La Catedral Basílica también es beneficiada de este apoyo ya que las contribuciones que superan la meta son regresadas a la parroquia para que sirvan de uso para diversas necesidades.

Por favor, reflexione esta semana acerca de un compromiso. No tiene que ser pagado de inmediato sino en el transcurso del año si se le hace más conveniente a Ud.

Jesus and the disciples that chose to follow him arrive at Capernaum, a small village on the Sea of Galilee. Jesus teaches in the synagogue on the Sabbath. Mark reports that the people respond to Jesus’ teaching with

astonishment, noting Jesus’ authority and contrasting it with the scribes’. After Jesus’ preaching, an even more astonishing thing happens. A man possessed with an unclean spirit calls out to Jesus. As we see in this example and throughout Mark’s Gospel, the spirits and demons seem to know Jesus and are often fearful of him. In fact, they seem to understand Je-sus’ identity better than his disciples. We will read again and again in Mark’s Gospel that Jesus orders the spirit to be quiet and drives the unclean spirits out. Jesus’ ability to heal those possessed by demons is an indication of his power over evil. In the presci-entific age of Jesus’ time, all illnesses were under-stood to be manifestations of evil and sinfulness. Our modern understanding of illness is very different. Possession by unclean spirits may have been a way to describe what we might call mental illness today. It may have even been a way of describing certain kinds of physical conditions. There is evidence that there were many kinds of exorcists and healers in first-century Palestine. Jesus appears to be like these healers, but he heals with unique authority and con-nects his healing activities with the words of his preaching. We are missing the point that Mark is try-ing to make in this Gospel, however, if we try to ex-plain away the healing work of Jesus. The crowds see in Jesus’ cure of the possessed man further affir-mation of his authority. Jesus’ power to heal gives greater credence to his teaching. Jesus impresses the crowds through his words, which are manifested with power in his deeds. Mark’s Gospel tells us that because of the authority with which he healed, Jesus’ fame spread throughout all of Galilee. Loyola Press

S anto de la Semana San Tomás Aquino (1225 – Marzo 7, 1274)

Por acuerdo universal, Tomás Aquino es el vocero preemi-nente de la tradición Católica y la revelación divina. Es uno de los grandes maestros de la Iglesia Católica medieval, honrado con los títulos, Doctor de la Iglesia y Doctor An-gélico. A los cinco años fue dado al monasterio Benedic-tino en Monte Cassino, con la esperanza de sus padres que eligiera esa forma de vida y eventualmente volverse en abad. En 1239 fue enviado a Nápoles para

completar sus estudios donde fue atraído por la filosofía de Aristóteles. Abandonó en el 1243 los planes de su familia y entro a los Domini-canos, decepcionando a su madre. Bajo la or-den de su madre, Tomás fue capturado por su hermano y detenido en casa por más de un año. Ya liberado, fue a Paris y luego a Colonia don-de concluyó sus estudios Alberto el Grande. En 1246 ejerce dos maestrías en Paris, vivió en las cortes del Papa Urbano IV y dirigió escue-las Dominicanas en Roma y Viterbo. Su gran contribución a la Iglesia Católica son sus escri-turas. La unidad, armonía y continuidad de fe y razón, del conocimiento revelado y natural de

conocimiento humano domina sus escrituras. Uno podrá espera que Tomás, como hombre del evangelio, podrá ser ardiente defensor de la verdad revelada. Pero era suficien-temente profundo y abierto para ver al orden natural como proveniente de Dios el Creador y ver a la razón como un don divino para ser altamente apreciado. El Summa Theo-logiae su última y lamentablemente, incompleta obra, trata la teología Católica en su plenitud. Dejó de elaborarla des-pués de celebrar misa el 6 de diciembre, 1273. Cuando le preguntaron porqué dejo de escribir, contesto, “No puedo seguir...Todo lo que he escrito parece paja comparado con lo que he visto y lo que se me ha revelado.” Murió el 7 de marzo, 1274. Es el Santo Patrón de Académicos y Filóso-fos.

S aint of the Week Saint Thomas Aquinas (1225 – March 7, 1274)

By universal consent, Thomas Aquinas is the preeminent spokesman of the Catholic tradition of reason and of divine revelation. He is one of the great teachers of the medieval Catholic Church, honored with the titles Doctor of the Church and Angelic Doctor. At five he was given to the Benedictine monastery at Monte Cassino in his parents’ hopes that he would choose that way of life and eventually became abbot. In 1239, he was sent to Naples to complete his studies. It was here that he was first attracted to Aristotle’s philosophy. By 1243, Thomas abandoned his family’s plans for him and joined the Dominicans, much to his mother’s dismay. On her order, Thomas was captured by his brother and kept at home for over a year. Once free, he went to Paris and then to Cologne, where he finished his studies with Albert the Great. He held two professorships at Paris, lived at the court of Pope Urban IV, directed the Dominican schools at Rome and Viterbo. His greatest contribution to the Catholic Church is his writings. The unity, harmony, and continuity of faith and reason, of revealed and natural human knowledge, pervades his writings. One might ex-pect Thomas, as a man of the gospel, to be an ardent de-fender of revealed truth. But he was broad enough, deep enough, to see the whole natural order as coming from God the Creator, and to see reason as a divine gift to be highly cherished. The Summa Theologiae, his last and, unfortu-nately, uncompleted work, deals with the whole of Catho-lic theology. He stopped work on it after celebrating Mass on December 6, 1273. When asked why he stopped writ-ing, he replied, “I cannot go on…. All that I have written seems to me like so much straw compared to what I have seen and what has been revealed to me.” He died March 7, 1274. Patron of Scholars and Philosophists.
