LLEGARÁN LOS DÍAS Separación, aislamiento y hostilidad son cosas terri-bles. Estamos, por desgracia, demasiado familiarizados con todos ellos en nuestra vida actual, si nos fijamos en los acontecimientos mundiales o los que ocurren en nuestros propios vecindarios y familias. Las tres lecturas de hoy se refieren a estas mismas y tristes condiciones humanas. El profeta Jeremías describe las condiciones del mun-do, como si la gente de su tiempo fuera la oveja que se había dispersado por falta de guía y pastores corruptos. Sin embargo “viene un tiempo”, nos asegura (Jeremías 23:5), cuando surgirá un nuevo pastor, un rey justo. Nos encontramos con ese rey en la segunda lectura y el Evangelio. Pablo nos recuerda en la Carta a los Efesios que todas las divisiones actuales pueden cesar en Cristo Jesús que nos ha reunido mediante su sangre. En el Evangelio de Marcos vemos a Jesús mismo, mirando con lástima quienes lo buscaban como si fueran ovejas sin pastor. ~Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.~

THE DAYS ARE COMING Separation, isolation, and hostility are terrible things. We are, sadly, too familiar with all of them in our mod-ern life, whether we look at world events or events in our own neighborhoods and families. All three readings today refer to these same sad human conditions. The prophet Jeremiah describes world conditions as if the people of his time were sheep who had been scat-tered by poor leadership and corrupt shepherds. But “the days are coming,” he assures us (Jeremiah 23:5), when a new shepherd, a just king, will come. We meet that king in the second reading and the Gospel. Paul reminds us in the Letter to the Ephesians that all divi-sions can now cease in Christ Jesus, who has brought us together through his blood. In Mark’s Gospel we see Jesus himself, looking with pity on those searching for him as if they were sheep without a shepherd. ~Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.~

Message for His Holiness Pope Francis for the First World Day

for Grandparents and the Elderly July 25, 2021

Theme: “I am with you always”

Dear Grandfathers and Grandmothers,

Dear Elderly Friends,

“I am with you always” (Mt 28:20) : this is the promise the Lord made to his disciples before he ascended into heaven. They are the words that he repeats to you today, dear grandfathers and grand-mothers, dear elderly friends. “I am with you al-ways” are also the words that I, as Bishop of Rome and an elderly person like yourselves, would like to address to you on this first World Day of Grand-parents and the Elderly. The whole Church is close to you – to us – and cares about you, loves you and does not want to leave you alone! I am well aware that this Message comes to you at a difficult time: the pandemic swept down on us like an unexpected and furious storm; it has been a time of trial for everyone, but especially for us el-derly persons. Many of us fell ill, others died or experienced the death of spouses or loved ones, while others found themselves isolated and alone for long periods.

The Lord is aware of all that we have been through in this time. He is close to those who felt isolated and alone, feelings that became more acute during the pandemic. Tradition has it that Saint Joachim, the grandfather of Jesus, felt estranged from those around him because he had no children; his life, like that of his wife Anne, was considered useless. So the Lord sent an angel to console him.

You can read the full letter in our church website: www.ourladyofgoodcounsel.net.

Mensaje del Santo Padre Francisco con ocasión de la primera Jornada Mundial de los abuelos y de los mayores

25 de julio de 2021

“Yo estoy contigo todos los días”

Queridos abuelos, queridas abuelas,

“Yo estoy contigo todos los días” (cf. Mt 28,20) es la promesa que el Señor hizo a sus discípulos antes de subir al cielo y que hoy te repite también a ti, queri-do abuelo y querida abuela. A ti. “Yo estoy contigo todos los días” son también las palabras que como Obispo de Roma y como anciano igual que tú me gustaría dirigirte con motivo de esta primera Jorna-da Mundial de los Abuelos y de las Personas Mayo-res. Toda la Iglesia está junto a ti —digamos mejor, está junto a nosotros—, ¡se preocupa por ti, te quie-re y no quiere dejarte solo! Soy muy consciente de que este mensaje te llega en un momento difícil: la pandemia ha sido una tor-menta inesperada y violenta, una dura prueba que ha golpeado la vida de todos, pero que a nosotros mayores nos ha reservado un trato especial, un tra-to más duro. Muchos de nosotros se han enfermado, y tantos se han ido o han visto apagarse la vida de sus cónyuges o de sus seres queridos. Muchos, aisla-dos, han sufrido la soledad durante largo tiempo. El Señor conoce cada uno de nuestros sufrimientos de este tiempo. Está al lado de los que tienen la do-lorosa experiencia de ser dejados a un lado. Nuestra soledad —agravada por la pandemia— no le es in-diferente. Una tradición narra que también san Joa-quín, el abuelo de Jesús, fue apartado de su comuni-dad porque no tenía hijos. Su vida —como la de su esposa Ana— fue considerada inútil. Pero el Señor le envió un ángel para consolarlo.

In this Sunday’s Gospel, Jesus tells his disciples to “Come away by yourselves to a deserted place and rest a while.” Vincent de Paul, a great man of action was also a contemplative. His contemplation of God’s love overflowed into practical love for the poor. Please say a special prayer for the poor and forgotten, as you place your gift for the Society of St. Vincent de Paul in the collection basket. Is God calling you to spend some time listening to peo-ple in our community who are in need? Please leave a message for us at 630-236-1285.

En el Evangelio de este Domingo, Jesús les dice a sus Apóstoles: “Vengan conmigo a un lugar solitario, para que descansen un poco.” San Vicente de Paúl, un gran hombre de acción, también fue contemplativo. Refle-xionaba constantemente sobre el amor de Dios que se

desbordaba de él como amor práctico por el pobre. Por favor reza una oración especial para los pobres y olvidados, especialmente cuando deposites tu regalo en la colecta para San Vicente de Paúl. ¿Le está llamando Dios a escuchar a los necesitados de nuestra comunidad?

SAINTS AND SPECIAL OBSERVANCES

FEAST OF FAITH The Prayer Over the Offerings In the liturgy of the 1570 Missal, this prayer was called the “secret” prayer. It was “secret” not because its content was mysterious, but because it was prayed in silence by the priest, who only recited the conclusion aloud: . . . per omnia saecula saeculorum. With the reforms of the Second Vatican Council, we again hear these rich prayers spoken aloud. They remind us to prepare ourselves for what is to happen in the Eucharistic Prayer, for it is not only the bread and wine that will be transformed. The Prayer Over the Offerings is a prayer for transformation, an expression, in a few words, of all that we hope that the liturgy will accomplish in our lives. We ask God to accept the gifts we present, and to change us even as God hal-lows the bread and wine. As we listen carefully to the Prayer Over the Offerings, we are reminded of what it is that we seek in the Eucharist: to be made holy; to be drawn closer to God; to come to eternal joy, unity, peace, and salvation. ~Corinna Laughlin, Copyright © J.
