Dear Sisters and Brothers,

The readings of this weekend speak of forgiveness and of mercy

for ourselves and for others, and show us they are related to each

other. They bring to evidence our need of God’s forgiveness, and

our dependence on God for everything, especially for salvation.

Peter gets surprised by trying to be generous in offering to

forgive seven times a day, with Jesus telling him that seventy seven

times is the limit for daily forgiveness. Implying that we should forgive always, Jesus is asking us

to forgive from the heart, and shows us how generous is God in forgiving us. To forgive others

when they ask for forgiveness is not so difficult, but forgiving someone who doesn’t ask for it is

more difficult.

Fact that we are asked to forgive always, does not mean that we should not defend ourselves

against someone’s aggression. We should protect ourselves always, and we should defend

ourselves always. Aggression is a direct violation of our right to life and liberty. This is why as we

remember 9/11, and we honor the victims and seek the justice for something that never should

have happened.

Violence and war is always wrong. Nobody is a winner in those two. It is an offense to God

who made us capable of dialogue, and we should resolve our differences by dialogue. War is the

last resort for defending oneself from the aggression. We have a right to defend our life and

liberty, our health and property. Any form of aggression is wrong.

Last Sunday the Scripture spoke about the need for fraternal correction, that should be done

out of love, with regard towards the truth that is evident to us. But even in correcting others we

have to be respectful of the other person, so that we don’t hurt them in the name of our right to

be correct. It is very difficult to express our differences with others, and it is even more difficult to

forgive being hurt in some way. But attitude of mercy and forgiveness is necessary for ourselves

to be healed, and not to be filled with hatred and resentment that would ultimately hurt us more.

We are asked to be healed and to heal by leaving ultimate judgments to God, and to expect justice

and salvation from God himself.

We need to strive for justice and proper education, so that we could live respectfully with

others. We condemn violence in any form and we pray for victims of gang violence that we

experienced over the years. Seeking justice for the victims we pray for healing of broken hearts

and lives. This process takes time and is not automatic. Forgiveness is a process of healing, and it

takes time and dedication to it in order to achieve it. Let us not be surprised that it hurts, as the

hurts that we received don’t go away instantly.

Seeking justice is part of our rights and education and prevention from the wrongs to be

perpetuating. The dialogue and reasoning has to be done about it.

Ultimate healing and rest we will find only in the Lord, and our salvation comes from Him. As St.

Paul said we are the Lord’s in life and in death. This is why it is so consoling to know, that the

Lord is kind and merciful, slow to anger and rich in compassion as the Psalm tells us.

Have a blessed 9/11. I know it’s after when you read it, but it is my prayer for you before it

passes this year, and we keep promise to remember it always.

God bless everyone always!!! F. Stan

Queridos Hermanos y Hermanas, Las lecturas de este fin de semana hablan del perdón y misericordia pa-ra nosotros y para los demás, y nos muestran que están relacionados entre si. Ponen en evidencia nuestra necesidad del perdón de Dios y nuestra de-pendencia de Dios en todo, especialmente para la salvación. Pedro se sorprende al tratar de ser generoso al ofrecer perdonar siete veces al día, y Jesús le dice que setenta y siete veces es el limite para el perdón diario. Implicando que debemos perdonar siempre, Jesús nos pide

que perdonemos de corazón y nos muestra cuan generoso es Dios al perdonarnos. Perdonar a los demás cuando piden perdón no es tan difícil, pero perdonar a alguien que no lo pide es mas difícil. El hecho de que hayamos pedido perdón siempre, no significa que no debamos defendernos de la agre-sión de alguien. Debemos protegernos siempre y defendernos siempre. La agresión es una violación directa de nuestro derecho a la vida y la libertad. Por eso, cuando recordamos el 11 de Septiembre, honramos a las victimas y buscamos justicia por algo que nunca debería haber sucedido. La violencia y la guerra siempre están mal. Nadie es un ganador entre esos dos. Es una ofensa a Dios que nos hizo capaces de dialogar, y debemos resolver nuestra diferencia mediante el dialogo. La guerra es el ultimo recurso para defenderse de la agresión. Tenemos derecho a profundizar nuestra vida y libertad, nuestra salud y propiedad. Cualquier forma de agresión esta mal. El Domingo pasado la Escritura hablaba de la necesidad de la corrección fraterna, que debe hacerse por amor, en la mirada a la verdad que nos es evidente. Pero incluso al corregir a los demás, tenemos que ser respetuosos con la persona de los demás, para no lastimarlos en nombre de nuestro derecho a estar en lo correcto. Es muy difícil expresar nuestras diferencias con los demás y es aun mas difícil perdonar el haber sido herido de alguna manera. Pero la actitud de misericordia y perdón es necesaria para que podamos ser sanados, y no para estar llenos de odio y resentimiento que finalmente nos lastimarían mas. Se nos pide que seamos sanados y que sanemos dejando los juicios definitivos a Dios, y que esperemos justicia y salvación de Dios mismo. Necesitamos luchar por la justicia y la educación adecuada, para poder vivir respetuosamente con los demás. Condenamos la violencia en cualquier forma y oramos por las victimas de la violencia de las pandi-llas que hemos experimentado a lo largo de los años. Buscando justicia para las victimas, oramos por la curación de vidas y corazones rotos. Este proceso lleva tiempo y no es automático. El perdón es un proceso de curación , y se necesita tiempo y dedicación para lograrlo. No nos sorprendamos de que duela, ya que las heridas que recibimos no desaparecen instantáneamente. Buscar justicia es parte de nuestros derechos y la educación y la prevención de los males que se van a perpetuar. El dialogo y el razonamiento deben realizarse al respecto. La curación y el descanso definitivos los encontraremos solo en el Señor, y nuestra salvación viene de El. Como dijo San Pablo, somos del Señor en la vida y en la muerte. Por eso es tan consolador saber que el Señor es bondadoso y misericordioso, lento para la ira y rico en compasión , como nos dice el Salmo. Tengo una bendición para el 11 de Septiembre. Se que es después cuando lo lees, pero es mi oración por ti antes de que pase este año, y mantenemos la promesa de recordarlo siempre. Dios les bendiga siempre!!! P. Stan

Bereavement Support Groups

support group offered not related to COVID-19 for anyone who has lost a loved one. Both groups will

begin on Thursday, September 17th at 7pm. There is no cost to attend the groups, but

pre-registration is required. In order to participate in this program, the death must have occurred prior to June 17th, 2020. If interested, please call (631) 581-4266, x-125. Please note that all participants must

wear a mask while in the group and we will be as so-cially distanced as possible.

Fr. John Victor

From the desk of Fr. John Victor

Dans l'Évangile, Pierre consulte Jésus sur un sujet très concret qui héberge dans le cœur de beaucoup de personnes: il demande la limite du pardon. La réponse consiste en ce que la

dite limite n'existe pas: "je ne te dis pas jusqu'à sept fois, mais jusqu'à soixante-dix fois sept" (Mt 18,22). Pour expliquer cette réalité, Jésus emploie une parabole. La question du roi centre le sujet de la parabole: "Ne devais-tu pas aussi compatir à ton compagnon, de la

même façon que j'ai compati à toi ?" (Mt 18,33). Le pardon est un don, une grâce qui pro-cède de l'amour et la miséricorde de Dieu. Pour Jésus, le pardon n'a pas de limites, chaque fois que le repentir est sincère et véridique. Mais il exige d’ouvrir le cœur à la conversion,

c'est-à-dire, agir avec les autres selon les critères de Dieu.

Le grave péché nous écarte du Dieu (cf. "Catéchisme de l'Église Catholique" n. 1470). Le véhicule ordinaire pour recevoir le pardon de ce grave péché de la part du Dieu est le sacre-ment de la Pénitence, et l'acte du pénitent que la couronne est la satisfaction. Les propres

œuvres qui manifestent la satisfaction sont le signe de l'engagement personnel que le chré-tien a assumé devant Dieu de commencer une nouvelle existence, en réparant dans le pos-sible les dommages causés au prochain. Il ne peut pas y avoir un pardon du péché sans un genre de satisfaction, dont la fin est: 1. Éviter de glisser vers d'autres plus graves péchés; 2.

Repousser le péché (puisque les peines satisfaisantes sont comme un frein et font le péni-tent plus prudent et vigilant); 3. Enlever avec les actes vertueux les habitudes mauvaises contractés avec le mal vivre; 4. Assimiler à Christ. Que le Siegneur vous accorde la grace

du pardon et aussi la joie de se sentir pardoner para les autres.
