EVERYDAY STEWARDSHIP

RECOGNIZE GOD IN YOUR ORDINARY MOMENTS

There are close to 7.6 billion people currently on earth. That is a lot of people!

If you try to estimate how many people have collectively been born since the

beginning of time, a good guess is 108 billion! It is hard to contemplate that

many distinctly different human beings created by our God. In the midst of all

those people, where do you and I fit? Can we really be created to make a

difference in the world? One can feel very small and insignificant when

reflecting on the numbers.

We render ourselves insignificant when we make the mistake of seeing

ourselves as being just like everybody else. However, when looking at the

numbers, how can one honestly think we are all the same? Another way we

become insignificant is believing the lie that one person in the midst of so

many does not have the power to make an impact. However, we all spend time

reading books, watching movies, or listening to news about singular people

who made all the difference in some part of the world. Imagine your own

world without a few key people who have touched you and made a difference.

We are all created with unique gifts. We have those gifts that have been part of

us from birth and those that have been imparted to us by the Holy Spirit. St.

Paul tried to get the Corinthians to understand that reality when he explained

to them the many gifts of the Spirit. Perhaps some of his audience back then

thought they were insignificant. The message then remains the message today:

God is counting on you to use what He has given you. If you don't, who will?

RECONOCER A DIOS EN LOS MOMENTOS ORDINARIOS

STEWARDSHIP / CORRESPONSABILIDAD

Gratitude in Action: Our Way of Life / Gratitud en Acción: Nuestra forma de Vida

Believe in Him. Can we truly believe without actually

seeing? Thomas the Apostle found he could not; he needed

to see, and was further invited by Jesus to touch so he

might believe.

If we have difficulty believing in Jesus and all He can do

for, and accomplish in, us, would it really make a

difference if we could see Him face to face? Or would we

still doubt? In spite of the miracles Jesus worked while on

this earth, there were those who chose not to believe in

Him or what they witnessed.

Jesus’ Mother, our Mother, told the servers at the wedding

in Cana when there was no more wine, “Do whatever he

tells you.” We know what happened; it was a beautiful

story with an awesome ending!

Is it possible for us to do whatever He tells us? Jesus waits

for us to seek Him in our lives, so first we must ask of

Him before we can listen to hear His voice in return. Then,

is our faith strong enough to do, without hesitation or

question, what He tells us to do? It means hearing the

voice of Someone we cannot see and cannot touch, and

obeying Him, even if what we are being told to do seems

absurd or outrageous. Many of the saints were faced with

this same challenge and they met it valiantly.

Jesus can reveal His glory in us just as He did those who

have walked before us in the Light of His presence. But

are we willing and strong enough to let it happen? It may

not be an incident that makes the front page of the newspaper

or the evening television news, but recalling scripture, Jesus

didn’t always work His miracles with that end result. He

would ask that no one be told what had happened.

How often in our daily life have we struggled and struggled

with an issue, then in utter frustration, perhaps defeat, given it

to God to figure out and handle for us? Isn’t it amazing how

He often deals with our problems and difficulties much

differently than we do! More than likely while we struggle to

resolve matters in our life as best we can, Jesus is standing

next to us saying, “Let Me do it!” Next time, let Him do it!

“The spirit of the Lord acts on us without force or

violence. The subtly of God can be frustrating for those of

us that want to be transformed in an instant. Yet faith

assures us that God is at work in those who believe. As

long as we make time for God, then his work within us will

continue unto the day of Christ Jesus.”1

1Prayer Everywhere: The Spiritual Life Made Simple by

Fr. Gary Caster

~Carole Drake

Pastoral Assistant and Community Outreach

Cree en Él. ¿Podemos realmente creer sin ver realmente?

Tomás el Apóstol encontró que no podía; necesitaba ver,

y Jesús lo invitó a tocar, para que creyera.

Si tenemos dificultades para creer en Jesús y todo lo que

Él puede hacer por nosotros y lograr con nosotros,

¿realmente haría una diferencia si pudiéramos verlo cara

a cara? ¿O todavía dudaríamos? A pesar de los milagros

que Jesús hizo mientras estuvo en esta tierra, hubo

quienes eligieron no creer en Él o lo que presenciaron.

La Madre de Jesús, nuestra Madre, dijo a los servidores

de la boda en Caná cuando no había más vino: "Haz lo

que te diga". Sabemos lo que sucedió; ¡Era una hermosa

historia con un final increíble!

¿Es posible que hagamos lo que Él nos dice? Jesús

espera que lo busquemos en nuestras vidas, así que

primero debemos preguntarle a Él antes de que podamos

escuchar su voz a cambio. Entonces, ¿es nuestra fe lo

suficientemente fuerte como para hacer, sin dudar o

cuestionar, lo que Él nos dice que hagamos? Significa

escuchar la voz de alguien que no podemos ver y no

podemos tocar, y obedecerle, incluso si lo que se nos

dice que hagamos parece absurdo o indignante. Muchos

de los santos se enfrentaron con este mismo desafío y lo

enfrentaron valientemente.

Jesús puede revelar Su gloria en nosotros tal como lo

hizo con aquellos que caminaron delante de nosotros en

la Luz de Su presencia. Pero, ¿estamos dispuestos y lo

suficientemente fuertes como para dejar que suceda?

Puede que no sea un incidente que aparezca en la portada

del periódico o en los noticieros televisivos de la noche,

pero recordando las Escrituras, Jesús no siempre hizo

Sus milagros con ese resultado final. Pediría que nadie le

dijera lo que había sucedido.

¿Cuántas veces en nuestra vida diaria hemos luchado y

batallado con un problema, y luego, en total frustración,

tal vez derrota, se lo hemos dado a Dios para que lo

descubra y maneje por nosotros? ¿No es sorprendente

cómo Él a menudo trata nuestros problemas y dificultades

de manera muy diferente a como lo hacemos nosotros?

Lo más probable es que mientras luchamos para resolver

los asuntos de nuestra vida lo mejor que podamos, Jesús

está de pie junto a nosotros diciendo: "¡Déjame

hacerlo!" ¡La próxima vez, deja que Él lo haga!

“El espíritu del Señor actúa sobre nosotros sin fuerza ni

violencia. Lo sutil de Dios puede ser frustrante para

aquellos de nosotros que queremos ser transformados en

un instante. Sin embargo, la fe nos asegura que Dios

está obrando en aquellos que creen. Mientras hagamos

tiempo para Dios, entonces su trabajo dentro de

nosotros continuará hasta el día de Cristo Jesús”.1

PARISH MISSION STATEMENT

We are one community nourished and transformed by the Eucharist.

As the body of Christ, we are led by the Holy Spirit to know, love and serve God and one another.

Somos una comunidad alimentada y transformada por la Eucaristía. Como cuerpo de Cristo, somos guiados por el

Espíritu Santo, para conocer, amar y servir a Dios y unos a otros.

GOSPEL MEDITATION / MEDITACIÓN EVANGÉLICO

The 2nd Sunday in Ordinary Time / 2º Domingo de Tiempo Ordinario

When you think of being Catholic, what do you think of?

Perhaps you grew up with your only associations being

fasting, nuns with rulers, and "Catholic guilt." Our faith

can sometimes have the connotation of restriction and

absence, not abundance. Who is God in your life? Is He

the divine law-giver, the judge punishing the rule-

breakers? These are certainly attributes of God. But the

laws don't exist for themselves alone. They exist to help us

love one another as God loves us. And this loving God is

the author of abundance and joy.

Did you hear today's Gospel? "There was a wedding at

Cana in Galilee." Here at this wedding, Jesus would

perform "the beginning of his signs...and so reveal his

glory." This first sign isn't a miraculous healing. He didn't

raise someone from the dead. He kept a party going!

"There were six stone water jars there for Jewish

ceremonial washings, each holding twenty to thirty

gallons...the water...had become wine." The wine has run

out. Jesus creates somewhere between 120 and 180

gallons to help his friend save face. We may not have such

momentous miracles in our lives, but God is watching out

for us. The string of green lights when you're running late.

The sale on the replacement appliance you need. The

friend who calls at just the right time. These are the little

moments of God's abundance. We just need to look for

them!

Not only does Jesus surprise, but the guests point out to

their host: "You have kept the good wine until now." The

divine wine is better than the earthly variety. God's

goodness is better than what we can grasp at for ourselves.

Isn't that how it always goes?

Hoy, dejamos el Evangelio de Lucas para escuchar el

de Juan. En este, se narra el primer signo de Jesús en la

boda de Caná. Juan le dice signos a lo que Lucas llama

milagros y en este caso se resalta la señal manifiesta,

de la dignidad eminente de Cristo. En la escena de la

boda Jesús aparece como el que trae un vino nuevo a

petición de su Madre María. "Todo el mundo sirve al

principio el vino mejor, y cuando ya todos han bebido

bastante, les dan el de menos calidad; pero tú has

dejado el mejor vino para el final" (Juan 2:10). Con

este signo milagroso, sale lo viejo y entra lo nuevo

para quedarse para siempre.

"Esta señal milagrosa fue la primera, y Jesús la hizo en

Caná de Galilea. Así se manifestó su gloria y sus

discípulos creyeron en él" (Juan 2:11). El sacerdote

español, José Luis Martin Descalzo (1930-1991), lo

explica así: "La vida pública de Jesús comienza con

una fiesta. Porque el anuncio de la buena nueva sólo

puede empezar con un estallido de alegría. Cristo no

puede presentarse ante los hombres como un

aguafiestas que viene a rebajar el vino de la alegría. Él

trae un vino mejor, no una tinaja de aburrimiento.

Quizás algunos hubieran preferido un funeral o quizás

una solemne liturgia en el gran templo". En el

banquete actual que es la Eucaristía, entramos todos

sin distinción de raza ni color; todos somos

bienvenidos a celebrar la presencia real de Cristo entre

nosotros. Sigamos atentos a la voz de la Madre.

"Hagan lo que él les diga" (Juan 2:5). Es un mensaje

que se aplica para entonces y para hoy.

Do You Have Little Free Time But Would Like To

Help Your Church?

Would you like to help your Church, but have very

little free time? Join us to count the weekly collections.

We meet at 7:45 am on Monday mornings in the

Scanlan Building. Counting the collection is a group

effort of 5 or more people and most Mondays we are

finished in about 2 hours.

We have teams established so that most volunteers

have only a once-a-month commitment. Currently, we

have a need for more volunteers on the 1st, 2nd & 3rd

Mondays of each month.

If you are good at counting money or have a

background in banking or retail, you are a perfect fit

for counting – but experience is NOT necessary.

If you would like to give it a try, please contact Shari

Todos fuimos creados con dones únicos. Tenemos

esos dones desde que nacimos, dados por el Espíritu

Santo. San Pablo intentó explicarles a los corintios esa

realidad cuando les explicó los regalos del Espíritu

Santo. Quizá algunas personas en ese entonces se

creían insignificantes. El mensaje de entonces es el

mismo de hoy: Dios cuenta en usted para usar lo que

Él le ha regalado. Si no lo hace usted, ¿quién lo hará?
