PARISH INFORMATION 15th Sunday In Ordinary Time Could anyone object to Jesus’ supreme lesson in mercy, the parable of the Good Samaritan? Jesus’ devoutly religious audience certainly did! Scant sympathy for anyone foolish enough to travel crime-ridden “Jericho Highway” alone. Much sympathy for priest and Levite, hurrying to assigned temple ministry, unwilling to risk ritual impurity through hands-on mercy. No sympathy for Jesus’ scandalous hero. Samaritans were religious apostates and political enemies. Jesus challenges them—and us—to seek God’s presence not only in liturgical beauty but in a fellow traveler’s self-inflicted misfortunes. See God’s presence even in someone outside the law, whose hands-on mercy springs not from religious obligation but from the heart’s instinctive goodness. Since Jesus became our “Good Samaritan” despite our foolishness and sins, who are we to ration our mercy? “Who is my neighbor?” (Luke 10:29). The next person we see who needs hands-on mercy! No conditions, no limits, no exceptions. Especially in this Jubilee of Mercy, Jesus commands, “Go and do likewise” (10:37). —Peter Scagnelli, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.

TODAY’S READINGS First Reading - Heed the voice of the Lord. It

is something very near to you, already in your hearts; you only need to carry it out (Deuteronomy 30:10-14).

Psalm - Turn to the Lord in your need, and you will live (Psalm 69) or Psalm 19.

Second Reading - All things were created through and for Christ Jesus (Colossians 1:15-20).

Gospel - To be a neighbor, show love by treating others with mercy, as did the Good Samaritan (Luke 10:25-37).

Thank you!

¡Gracias a todos!

15o Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario ¿Podría haber alguien que contradijera la excelente lección de misericordia en la parábola del Buen Samaritano? ¡Claro, la audiencia de Jesús que era religiosamente devota lo hizo! Muy poca simpatía gozaba alguien lo suficientemente tonto como para viajar solo por “el camino de Jericó” lleno de criminales. Bastante simpatía tenía un sacerdote y un levita, quienes a prisa se dirigían a realizar su trabajo en el templo, y que preferían evitar hacer una obra de misericordia evitando quedar impuros para la realización del culto. Nada de simpatía para la persona atenta que presenta Jesús. Para los judíos los samaritanos eran sus enemigos, tanto religiosa como políticamente. Jesús los desafía —y también a nosotros— a buscar la presencia de Dios no solamente en la hermosura de la liturgia sino en esa persona extraña viajera que cayo en desgracia. Observa la presencia de Dios aún en alguien que está fuera de la Ley, quien hace una obra de misericordia que brota más de la bondad instintiva de su corazón que por sus obligaciones religiosas. Ya que Jesús se hizo nuestro “Buen Samaritano” pese a nuestras culpas y necedad, ¿quiénes somos nosotros para medir nuestra misericordia? ¿Quién es mi prójimo? (Lucas 10:29). ¡La próxima persona que veamos que necesita una obra de misericordia! Sin condiciones, sin limites, sin excepciones. Especialmente en este Jubileo de la misericordia, Jesús ordenó “vete y haz tú lo mismo” (10:37). —Peter Scagnelli, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.

As we continue to celebrate who we are as Catholics and as people of faith during this Year of Faith, we recognize that we are an Immigrant Church and take seriously the Gospel call to welcome the stranger among us. We, the Church of Los Angeles, are mindful that we are a Church of many peoples, with different backgrounds, different stories, and different family histories. Each of us is unique, but our Catholic faith teaches us that we are all made in the image of God - imago Dei.

In Celebration of our immigrant roots as a Church and as a nation, we will be

celebrating a special Mass in recognition of all immigrants and in support of comprehensive immigration reform that is just and compassionate. This is a pivotal moment in the debate for comprehensive immigration reform. That is why we have been meeting with members of Congress, our elected representatives, to convey to them the core principles we would like to see in any kind of legislation that is enacted to fix our broken immigration system. Those elected officials with whom we have met have been very receptive and attentive to what we have to say on this issue. We pray that God may guide them and our country as decisions are made that will affect so many in our Archdiocese and across the nation.

I invite each one of you to join me in recognition of all those who, for

whatever reason, have come to this beautiful land of ours in search for a better life:

Sunday, July 17, 2016 @ 4:00pm

(3:00pm Pre-Procession Gathering at the Cathedral Plaza) Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels 555 West Temple St, Los Angeles

Let us show, in the spirit of the Gospel, that we are 'welcoming the stranger

among us'. -Archbishop José H. Gomez

M 2016 H T L I Durante los últimos meses un equipo conformado por párrocos y otros

clérigos locales hemos estado trabajando en el desarrollo de una iniciativa arquidiocesana que nos lleve a profundizar el significado de ser católico e inmigrante en la Iglesia de Los Ángeles en el 2012 y lo que significa ser una iglesia inmigrante, una frase comúnmente utilizada para describir nuestra Iglesia aquí en los Estados Unidos. En la Arquidiócesis de los Ángeles, la inmigración es un fenómeno social que afecta a muchas de nuestras comunidades parroquiales tanto, como a diferentes grupos étnicos.

Mucho de nuestro trabajo ha estado enfocado en la reflexión teológica, la cual

ha servido para desarrollar una relación laboral con cada uno y a nivel de grupo. Nuestro propósito es conectar a los inmigrantes entre sí, conectarlos con su Iglesia y su parroquia, basados en la firme convicción de nuestra fe católica y en la doctrina social de la Iglesia. Nos hemos reunido con el Arzobispo José Gomez y también hemos conversado con nuestros obispos regionales. El interés y el apoyo son sobresalientes.

Nuestras parroquias, como comunidades de fe, es dónde nuestra gente se

reúne, por lo que también debe ser el lugar donde la tarea de conectarlos y cimentar sus relaciones debe ocurrir, así como compartimos nuestra fe y la ponemos en práctica, de esa manera evangelizando.

Para ayudarnos a enfocar nuestros esfuerzos en la comprensión de quienes

somos como la Iglesia local en Los Ángeles, el Arzobispo Gómez celebrará una misa en reconocimiento a todas las personas y familias que son inmigrantes en esta bella tierra:

La Catedral de Nuestra Señora de Los Angeles

555 W Temple Street, Los Angeles Domingo, 17 de julio del 2016, a las 4.00 de la tarde

Exhortamos a todas las parroquias a participar en esta importante Misa de

celebración y a que estén bien representadas enviando su propia delegación. Se les invita a todos los sacerdotes a que concelebren. Reconociendo que la cuestión de inmigración no solamente afecta a la comunidad Latina, invitamos a todos, especialmente los inmigrantes (recientes y de pasadas generaciones). Esta es una oportunidad para mostrar que somos como Iglesia realmente el Cuerpo de Cristo.

Si necesita más información o si tiene preguntas, por favor llame al (213)637-

7560.

Favor de inscribirse en la parroquia. Registrarse es la forma de demonstrar que ustedes pertenecen a nuestra parroquia de Santo

Domingo Savio.

Did You Know? Lecturing teenagers may feel like the right path to take, especially if they are star ng to develop bad habits or make poor choices, but lecturing is usually the least effec ve way to get your message across. Children tend to see lectures as condescending and abstract, and this detracts from the wisdom and advice you are trying to provide. Instead of lecturing, try to engage your child in calm, open conversa on that addresses the issue while allowing you both to talk about what’s going on. For more ps and a copy of the VIRTUS® ar cle “Communica on Tip No. 11: Why Lecturing Doesn’t Work,” email jvienna@la-archdiocese.org or call (213) 637-7227.

Los padres de familia deben evitar sermonear y comenzar a pla car Sermonear a los adolescentes puede sen rse como el mejor camino a seguir, especialmente si ellos comienzan a desarrollar malos hábitos o a hacer malas decisiones, pero sermonear es usualmente la forma menos efec va para transmi r su mensaje. Los niños enden a ver los sermones como al vos y abstractos, y esto le quita valor a la sabiduría y consejo que usted está tratando de dar. En lugar de sermonear, trate de involucrarse con su hijo/hija en una conversación calmada y abierta, en la que trate el asunto de una forma que les permita a ambos hablar sobre lo que está pasando.
