CARING AND SHARING In todays Gospel Luke 13:12 we hear Jesus call to the

woman—”You are set free of your infirmity.” He laid

his hands on her, and she at once stood up straight and

glorified God.

At times don’t you wish it would be that easy in being

cured of our grief? One day Jesus would say, “stand

up your grief is over.” We realize it doesn’t usually

happen that way—our hearts are not healed at once.

We continue to pray that one day our hearts will be

healed.

“Lord, set us free from our grief.”

Bless you,

Yvonne

INMIGRACIÓN

31er Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario

Muchas veces se ve en los medios de comunicacion

especialmente la television y la radio programas de imitacion

y algunas personas se dan a la tarea de imitar a artistas

famosos. Los imitadores procuran hacer el mejor papel del

personaje. Pero hay que notar que se imita lo de fuera, no lo

que es su vida o su forma de ser. Hoy en el Evangelio, el

Senor Jesus nos da una catedra de a quien debemos de

imitar; fue directo, al grano y hablo sin reservas tanto para el

pueblo como para sus discıpulos y para nosotros en este

tiempo. Su palabra debe ser aliento para la sociedad actual

que trata de imitar lo que ve y lo que escucha.

“En la catedra de Moises se han sentado los escribas y

fariseos. Hagan, pues, todo lo que les digan, pero no imiten

sus obras, porque dicen una cosa y hacen otra” (Mt 23, 2-3).

¿A quien imitan los ninos y jovenes de hoy? ¿Quienes son sus

guıas a seguir? Jesus habla de las cargas pesadas que los

maestros de la ley imponıan especialmente a los pobres. Si

damos carga a los demas, el deber principal es ayudar a

llevarla. No se puede dejar toda la responsabilidad de los

hijos a la esposa o al esposo. Se trabaja en familia. Tambien

las cosas no se hacen para quedar bien o para lucirse. ¡Hay

tener cuidado en esto! En su discurso, Jesus recalca que

tenemos un solo Padre y un solo guıa que es Cristo. Entonces,

dice el: “Que el mayor de entre ustedes sea su servidor,

porque el que se enaltece sera humillado y el que se humilla

sera enaltecido” (Mt 23, 11-12).

VERSO DE LAS ESCRITURAS "Ustedes, en cambio, no dejen que los llamen

'maestros', porque no tienen más que un Maestro y

todos ustedes son hermanos. A ningún hombre sobre

la tierra lo llamen 'padre', porque el Padre de ustedes

es sólo el Padre celestial. No se dejen llamar 'guías',

porque el guía de ustedes es solamente Cristo. Que el

mayor de entre ustedes sea su servidor". - Mt 23, 8-11

Los esperamos el sábado 4 de 11:30 a

6:00 y domingo 5 de noviembre de 10:00

a 1:00 a nuestro gran Festival del Día de

Muertos en el gimnasio de la escuela

secundaria de la escuela católica de

Washington. No te pierdas esta gran

oportunidad de participar y apreciar esta

tradición milenaria de México y Centro

América. Habrá grandes sorpresas, como

comida tradicional mexicana,

guatemalteca y salvadoreña. Así como

bailes folclóricos de diferentes países,

música y juegos para niños. Además,

tendremos exhibiciones de catrinas,

fotografías de la cultura Huichol

Mexicana y dibujos a lápiz desde la

Ciudad de México. Este año honraremos

la memoria del señor Fred Schwenk,

quien ayudo a la comunidad hispana en

varias ocasiones.

REFLECTION 31st Sunday in Ordinary Time

"For they preach but they do not practice." The scribes and

Pharisees may be the ones Jesus was speaking about in today's

Gospel, but we must be careful not to dismiss his words when it

comes to our own actions. Jesus offered a difficult challenge to those

honor-seekers that we must also heed when he said, "The greatest

among you must be your servant." This is not the way the world

usually works. Generally speaking, the idea of being a servant is

considered inferior to being someone who has risen to high levels of

leadership or status. But Jesus wants people in positions of authority

to selflessly serve those over whom they have influence. And he

insists that the leaders who establish laws, rules, and guidelines do

not excuse themselves from following their own directives! "Practice

what you preach," as the saying goes.

Whether or not we have extensive public influence, almost all of us

at certain points are in a position to exercise leadership--with our

children and families, with classmates, coworkers, neighbors,

friends, and sometimes strangers. When these moments arise, we are

called to step into this role without being hypocrites. It's important to

be sure we don't issue unrealistic demands on others that we

ourselves would find it burdensome or even impossible to fulfill.

This requires the virtue of humility. Instead of reveling in the

authority we may have at any given moment, instead of creating

"heavy burdens hard to carry and lay[ing] them on people's

shoulders," we need to be ready and willing to walk a mile in their

shoes, and lead accordingly. And Jesus tells us clearly that this

servant leadership will be rewarded, for "whoever humbles himself

will be exalted."

"As for you, do not be called 'Rabbi.' You have but one teacher, and you are all brothers. Call no one on earth your father; you have but one Father in heaven. Do not be called 'Master'; you have but one master,

the Christ. The greatest among you must be your servant." - Mt 23:8-11
