13 de septiembre de 2020 Vigésimo Cuatro Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario Página 3 PERDÓN

Unos diez años antes, un padre e hijo se distanciaron cuando el negocio en el que eran socios se fue a bancarrota. El hijo culpó al padre. No se hablaron más. Entonces el padre se puso gravemente enfermo. La madre llamó al hijo y le dijo

que viniera a verlo pronto. El hijo entró con vergüenza a su habitación en el hospital. El padre hizo un gesto para que se acercara y susurró: “¿Acaso pensaste que podrías hacer algo que me hiciera dejar de amarte?” El rencor y la cólera son abominables, nos dice la primera lectura de Sirácide. Piensa en tu fin. Deja de odiar. Vive conforme a los mandamientos. Como

escribe san Pablo en Romanos, para el Señor vivimos y para el Señor morimos. Sin embargo, la parábola de Jesús en el Evangelio de hoy nos recuerda la compasión de Dios. El inmenso pecado de la humanidad ha sido perdonado y borrado del libro. Tenemos que perdonar a otros de igual manera.

FORGIVENESS Nearly ten years before, a son and father had parted ways when the business they shared went bankrupt. The son blamed the father. They did not speak to each other again. Then the father became seriously ill. The mother called the son and told him he had better come soon. The son walked sheepishly into the hospital room. The father motioned his son to him and whispered: “Did you ever think you could do anything that would keep me from loving you?” Resentment and anger are foul things, the first reading from Sirach tells us. Remember the last things. Stop hating. Live by the commandments. As St. Paul writes to the Romans, we are to live for the Lord and die for the Lord. Jesus’ parable in today’s Gospel reminds us of God’s compassion. The immense sin of humanity has been forgiven and stricken from the record. We are to forgive others in the same way.

Forgive your neighbor’s injustice; then when you pray, your own sins will be forgiven. — Sirach 28:2

TODAY’S READINGS First Reading — Remember the com-mandments and hate not your neighbor (Sirach 27:30 — 28:7). Psalm — The Lord is kind and merciful, slow to anger, and rich in compassion (Psalm 103). Second Reading — Whether we live, or whether we die, we do so for the Lord (Romans 14:7-9). Gospel — Forgive one another from your heart (Matthew 18:21-35).

LECTURAS DE HOY Primera lectura — No podemos fomentar el rencor y esperar que se nos perdonen nuestros pecados (Eclesiástico 27:30 — 28:7). Salmo — El Señor es bondadoso y miseri-cordioso, lento a la ira y rico en compasión (Salmo 103(102)). Segunda lectura — Ya sea que vivamos o muramos, lo hacemos en Cristo (Romanos 14:7-9). Evangelio — Jesús dice que debemos per-donar no sólo siete veces sino setenta veces siete veces (Mateo 18:21-35).

Perdona la ofensa a tu prójimo, y así, cuando pidas perdón se te perdonarán tus pecados. — Eclesiástico 28:2

Commonly known simply as “the banns,” (from an Old English word meaning “to summon”). Are the public announcement in a parish church that a marriage is going to take place. The purpose of banns is to enable anyone to raise any legal impediment to it, so as to prevent marriages that are legally invalid, either under canon law or under civil law. Upcoming marriages will appear in the bulletin 3 consecutive times.

1st – Steven Ramirez & Belinda Berdin

“Those who are willing to give up their liberty in exchange for security will end up with neither.” “The government that is big enough to give you everything you want is also big enough to take away everything you have.”

"Aquellos que estén dispuestos a renunciar a su libertad a cambio de seguridad, terminarán sin ninguno". "El gobierno que es tan grande que puede darte todo lo que quieres, también es tan grande que puede quitarte todo lo que tienes."
