Parish Vision Statement

We, the faith filled members of San Miguel Parish and its

Missions, a part of the

Archdiocese of Santa Fe, find strength, unity and grace in the

Celebration of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. As the voices

and hands of Jesus in our time, our purpose is to express

God’s grace by offering Christian Love and

Service to each other and to everyone we meet. We reach out

to the world in prayer, action and deeds in unity with the Holy

IN OBSERVANCE OF

ALL SAINTS DAY!

From the Desk of….T. Rios

Thirtieth Sunday in Ordinary Time

October 28, 2018

In the First Reading the people returning from exile hear

God speak through his Prophet Jeremiah saying, “They

departed in tears but I will console them and guide them. I

will lead them to brooks of water”. Water was a sign of

God’s attentive and tender love. They are filled with hope

as God presents himself as their loving Father.

The Second Reading speaks of Christ as high priest. The

priests of the Old Testament offered sacrifices for their own

sins and those of the people. In Jesus, there was no sin.

Jesus was chosen as high priest because of His loving

obedience and self giving to God the Father. This reading

ends with a line from Psalm 110: 4, “You are My Son, this

day I have begotten You”.

This brings to mind our own baptismal priesthood. As a

priestly people, we bring others to Christ in the way we lead

our lives.

In the Gospel story of blind Bartimaeus, we have a parable

in action. The crowd tried to silence him but Jesus saw in

him the gift of deep faith, a faith that saves.

When Bartimaeus was brought to Jesus, he called Jesus

Son of David and Master. This was a sign of profound

respect.

He stood before Jesus with confidence and trust. He asked

to be healed. When he received his vision he also had the

insight needed for any disciple and he followed Jesus.

He didn’t just stand there, he sprang up into action. This

gospel story has much to teach us.

Respectfully,

T. Rios
