Pastor’s Corner

Desde el Escritorio del Párroco

Every once in-a-while, I like to share with you some tid -bit that I read or heard that I think has meaning for our current world situation. This week, I want to share with you an “Obituary” that was printed in the London Times in 2013 and which I believe continues to speak to our society today. It is an “obituary” on the Death of Common Sense: Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was, since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape. He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as: • Knowing when to come in out of the rain; • Life isn’t always fair; • Why the early bird gets the worm; • And maybe it was my fault, Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don’t spend more than you can earn) and reliable strategies (adults, not children, are in charge). His health began to deteriorate rapidly when wellintentioned but overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a 6-year-old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate; teens suspended from school for using mouthwash after lunch; and a teacher fired for reprimanding an unruly student, only worsened his condition. Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the job that they themselves had failed to do in disciplining their unruly children. It declined even further when schools were required to get parental consent to administer sun lotion or an aspirin to a student; but could not inform parents when a student became pregnant and wanted to have an abortion. Common Sense lost the will to live as the churches became businesses; and criminals received better treatment than their victims. Common Sense took a beating when you couldn’t defend yourself from a burglar in your own home and the burglar could sue you for assault. Common Sense finally gave up the will to live, after a women failed to realize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She spilled a little in her lap, launched a lawsuit and was promptly awarded a huge settlement. Common Sense was preceded in death, • By his parents, Truth and Trust and by his wife, Decision • By his daughter, Responsibility, and by his son, Reason He is survived by his 5 stepbrothers; • I Know My Rights, -I Want it Now! • Someone Else is to Blame, - I’m a Victim. • Pay me for Doing Nothing! Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he was gone. As a parish family, let’s do our best to keep Common Sense alive! God bless you!

De vez en cuando, me gusta compartir con ustedes algo que he leído u oído que creo que tiene un significado para nuestra actual situación mundial. Esta semana, quiero compartir con ustedes un "Obituario" que fue publicado en el London Times en el 2013 y que creo que habla de nuestra sociedad de hoy. Es un "obituario" sobre la muerte del Sentido Común. Hoy lloramos el fallecimiento de un amado viejo amigo, que ha estado con nosotros durante muchos años. Nadie sabe por cierto cuántos años tenía, ya que sus registros de nacimiento se habían perdido hace tiempo en la burocracia. Se recordará que ha cultivado tales lecciones tan valorables como.: • Saber cuándo entrar si está lloviendo; • La vida no siempre es justa; • Por qué el que se levanta temprano, coge el gusano; • Y tal vez fue mi culpa, Sentido Común vivió por políticas financieras simples y sólidas (no gaste más de lo que puede ganar) y estrategias confiables (los adultos, no los niños, están encargados) Su salud comenzó a deteriorarse rápidamente cuando las regulaciones bien intencionadas pero dominantes se pusieron en su lugar. Informes de un niño de 6 años de edad acusado de acoso sexual por besar a una compañera de clase; adolescentes suspendidos de la escuela por usar el enjuague bucal después del almuerzo; y un maestro despedido por reprender a un estudiante rebelde, sólo empeoró su condición. El Sentido Común perdió terreno cuando los padres atacaron a los maestros por hacer el trabajo que ellos mismos no habían podido hacer para disciplinar a sus niños indisciplinados. Se redujo aún más cuando se requirió a las escuelas obtener el consentimiento de los padres para administrar loción solar o aspirina al estudiante; pero no pueden informarles a los padres cuando una estudiante queda embarazada y quería tener un aborto. El sentido común perdió la voluntad de vivir cuando las iglesias se convirtieron en negocios; Y los delincuentes recibieron mejor trato que sus víctimas. El Sentido Común tomó una paliza cuando no podía defenderse de un ladrón en su propia casa y el ladrón podría demandarlo por asalto. El Sentido Común finalmente renunció a la voluntad de vivir, después de que una mujer no se dio cuenta de que una taza de café caliente estaba caliente. Se derramó un poco en su regazo, puso en marcha una demanda y prontamente recibió una gran compensación. El Sentido Común fue precedido en la muerte, • Por sus padres, Verdad y Confianza-por su esposa, la Decisión. • Por su hija, Responsabilidad, y por el hijo, Razón Le sobreviven sus 5 hermanastros; • Conozco mis derechos, los quiero ahora. • Otra persona es la culpable, - Soy una víctima, • Págueme por no hacer nada No muchos asistieron a su funeral porque tan pocos se dieron cuenta de que se había ido. ¡Hagamos nuestro mejor esfuerzo para mantener vivo el Sentido Común! ¡Que Dios los bendiga!

Da mesa do pároco

Religious Education /Educación Religiosa

Da mesa do pároco De vez em quando eu gosto de partilhar umas coisinhas que leio ou ouço e acho que podem ser úteis. Nessa semana quero falar do “obtuário” pintado nuna praça de Londres em 2013 e que passa uma mensagem para sociedade de hoje. É um “obtuário” sobre a morte do Bom Senso. Hoje lamentamos a morte desse amigo que esteve conosco por muitos anos. Ninguém sabe da sua idade por falta de registros. Ele será lembrado pelas suas virtudes, tais como: . saber quando ia chover, . a vida não é um negócio, . como os filhotes de pássaros se aquecem, . e talvez foi minha falta, O Bom Senso vivido na simplicidade como, não gastar mais do que ganha e confiar adequadamente o que compete aos adultos e às crianças. A sua saúde começou a se deteriorar rapidamente quando ficou tomado por demasiadas preocupações. Notícia que uma criança de 6 anos foi condenada por abuso sexual quando beijou uma colega de classe, jovens suspensos da escola por usar glicerine na boca após o almoço, professores demitidos por repreender aluno mal-comportados, isso só pioraram a sua situação. Pais culpando professores por educação que eles próprios deveriam ter dado aos seus filhos. Alunas com direito de abortar sem comunicar aos pais. Igrejas fazendo comércios, criminosos recebendo tramento melhor que suas vítimas. Violência quando se deveria proteger. Finalmente o Bom Senso desistiu de viver quando uma mulher não sabia que o copo de café fervendo queimava. Ela derramou no seu colo e fez um barraco querendo processar outros pelo que ela fez. O Bom Senso estava morrendo, .pelos seus pais, pela sua fé, pela confiança na decisão da esposa, pela sua filha, pela responsabilidade. Mas o Bom Senso sobreviviu pelos ses 5 irmãos adotivos: . Eu conheço meus direitos, . eu o quero agora, .outros serão culpados, . eu sou uma vítima, . me idenize por não ter feito nada. Poucos foram aos seu funeral porque poucos perceberam a sua morte. Vamos afzer o melhor que podemos para manter o Bem Senso vivo! Que Deus te abençoe!

TO OUR CHILDREN: Jesus wants us to keep the Ten Commandments! In today’s gospel Jesus teaches that he wants all who follow Him to keep the Ten Commandments. God Bless You! I AM THE LORD YOUR GOD, YOU SHALL NOT HAVE STRANGE GODS BEOFRE ME. PUT GOD FIRST IN YOUR LIFE BEFORE ALL THINGS. YOU SHALL NOT TAKE THE NAME OF THE LORD YOUR GOD IN VAIN. RESPECT GOD’S NAME AND HOLY THINGS. DON’T CURSE OR USE BAD WORDS. REMEMBER TO KEEP HOLY THE LORD’S DAY (SABBATH). TAKE PART IN THE MASS ON SUNDAYS AND HOLY DAYS. HONOR YOUR FATHER AND YOUR MOTHER. OBEY AND SHOW RESPECT TO PARENTS AND OTHER PEOPLE IN PROPER AUTHORITY. YOU SHALL NOT KILL. RESPECT AND PROTECT LIFE – YOUR OWN AND THAT OF OTHERS. YOU SHALL NOT COMMIT ADULTERY.

Preparing for Lent Lenten Fast and Abstinence– During the season of Lent, the Church urges the faithful to reflect a spirit of penance in their daily lives through performing acts of faith and abstinence. FASTING requires that only one full meal be taken per day. Two other smaller meals may be taken during the day to maintain physical strength, but these two meals together should not equal a full meal in quantity. Nor is there eating between meals. Fasting obliges all those who have reached the age of 18 and continue to obligate to oblige through age 59. Those who are not specifically obliged to fast are encourage to join in the discipline of fasting to the extent that they are able. ABSTINENCE prohibits individuals from eating meat on a particular day. Abstinence obliges all those who have reached the age of 14 and continues to oblige throughout their lives. Those who are not specifically obliged to abstain from eating meat are encouraged to join the discipline of abstaining o the extend that they are able.

ASH WEDNESDAY and GOOD FRIDAY are days of Fast and Abstinence, FRIDAYS in Lent are days of Abstinence.
