need to forgive right now?
Youth: Who do you need to forgive this week? How will you do this?

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
Last week's "Treasure" no doubt raised an eyebrow or two with the
image of the deacons scurrying through the streets of Rome, or perhaps
galloping on horseback, with fragments of Eucharistic bread from the
bishop's liturgy. These would be dropped into the chalice at outlying
celebrations, presided over by presbyters, to express unity with the bishop,
and perhaps also to remind the presbyters that they were not free
agents. The Council of Laodicea forbade the custom of the fermentum in
the year 348. Generally, one of the rules of interpreting law is that people
don't make laws about things that aren't happening. So, by mid-fourth
century, we have an important clue that what had once been a Roman
custom had become widespread.
Interestingly, when the Church of England (and its related bodies) went
through a liturgical renewal in the mid-nineteenth century, they reclaimed
this custom from the mists of history. Today, it is the custom in some
Anglican dioceses for a fragment of the host from the bishop's Holy
Week liturgy (what we call the Chrism Mass) to be carried to every
parish. On "Maundy Thursday" (our Holy Thursday), the fragment is
dropped into the chalice to signify the parish's communion with the
bishop. This modern revival of the fermentum is different from the
"co-mingling" action we are used to, in which a fragment of the
consecrated bread is dropped into the chalice just before Communion.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE
En 1910, cuatro años antes de iniciar el Día de las Madres, el pueblo
de Estados Unidos empezó a celebrar ocasionalmente un día para los
padres de familia. Pero, no fue hasta 1972 que se fijó un día oficial para
el papá. Poco a poco esta fecha del segundo domingo de junio se ha ido
expandiendo al resto del mundo con algunas excepciones. En Italia por
ejemplo, la fiesta del padre se celebra el 19 de marzo, día de san José.
Durante la Revolución Industrial del siglo diecinueve, José, esposo de
María recibió su primera fiesta oficial. La Iglesia, preocupada por el ingreso
del padre a las fábricas, propuso a este santo varón como ejemplo de lo
que los padres deben ser en la vida de sus hijos e hijas; ejemplos de fe,
ternura y trabajo. Aún en nuestro tiempo, el Rito del Bautismo de niños
insiste que el padre, junto con la madre, deben ser los mayores maestros
de sus hijos. Al igual que José, el papá debe cuidar y proteger a su
familia, enseñarle a los niños a trabajar y ser honestos para el bien de
la familia y la sociedad.

Undécimo Domingo en Tiempo Ordinario
Dear Brothers & Sisters in Christ,
The readings today call to mind our fallen nature, namely sin.
Hard as we may try, we fail, sometime miserably, in our efforts not to
sin. As Saint Paul states, “I do that which I do not want to do.” Does
this mean we are destined to live a life of duality? Of course not! What
it means is that we are not perfect, hard as we may wish, try or do, we
fall short of perfection. And that is alright, as our Christ does not want
or expect perfection, nor does he desire only good works or any other
efforts we may undertake “to pray or buy” our way into the forgiveness
of the Lord. We are reminded by the Word of God, that when we sin
we should be repentant; acknowledge our wrong doing and the
consequences before and during confession. In this most Holy Year of
Mercy (truthfully everyday day of our lives should be lived as a Life of
Mercy) we are called to love and have complete and utter faith in the
one who saved us before we needed saving, Jesus who is our salvation.
Saint Paul has it right when says, “I live, no longer I, but Christ lives in
me.” Christ can live in each of us, if we allow him through our love, faith
and if we do not tire of asking our Christ, “Lord, forgive the wrong I have
done.” Ask and truly believe that He has blotted out your transgressions.
Forgiveness of self is perhaps the most difficult thing to do as we see
ourselves often as unworthy of His forgiveness. Not to forgive oneself
after confession is to disavow the grace of our Lord who made the
ultimate sacrifice for us in his dying to save the world, you and me, as
such his death would mean nothing. Be therefore the Mercy of Christ.
My brothers and sisters let us continue to flourish in the love of the
Holy Spirit, hold each other up and love one another as our Lord loves us.
As I think about my time spent at St. Lawrence as your pastor, I
have been blessed to shepherd a community of faithful people who
have demonstrated their commitment to their faith and who reflect the
Mercy of God every day. May the grace of the Lord continue to bless
your homes and the parish.
Father Enrique
12 de Junio de 2016
Queridos hermanos y hermanas en Cristo,
Las lecturas de hoy nos hacen un llamado a pensar en nuestra
naturaleza caída, llamada pecado. No importa que tanto tratemos,
caemos, algunas veces miserablemente, en nuestros esfuerzos de
no pecar. Como dice San Pablo, “Hago lo que no quiero hacer”.
¿Quiere esto decir que estamos destinados a vivir una vida dual?
¡Claro que no! Lo que quiere decir es que no somos perfectos, no
importa cuanto deseemos, tratemos o hagamos, estamos muy lejos
de la perfección. Y eso está bien, porque Cristo no quiere ni espera
la perfección, ni tampoco quiere solo buenas obras u otros esfuerzos
que hagamos para orar o comprar su perdón. La Palabra de Dios
nos recuerda que cuando pecamos debemos arrepentirnos; reconocer
lo que hemos hecho mal y sus consecuencias ante un confesionario.
En este Año de la Misericordia, estamos llamados a amar y a tener
una fe profunda en El que nos ha salvado, pues Jesús es nuestra
salvación. San Pablo lo dice muy bien, “No soy yo el que vive, es Cristo
quien vive en mí”. Cristo vive en cada uno de nosotros, si se lo
permitimos, a través de nuestro amor y nuestra fe y si no lo cansamos
de decirle: “Señor, perdona el mal que he hecho”. Pídele perdón y
cree firmemente que te ha perdonado tus pecados. El perdonarnos
a nosotros mismos es quizás la cosa más difícil de hacer, porque
muchas veces nos vemos indignos de su perdón. No perdonarse a
si mismo después de la confesión es no aceptar la gracia de nuestro
Señor, quien hizo el máximo sacrificio por nosotros, muriendo para
salvar el mundo.
Hermanos y hermanas, continuemos floreciendo en el amor del
Espíritu Santo, sosteniéndonos y amándonos unos a otros como el
Señor nos ama.
Al pensar en el tiempo que pase en San Lorenzo como su pastor,
he sido bendecido con una comunidad de gente fiel, que ha demostrado
el compromiso a su fe y que reflejan la Misericordia de Dios todos
los días. Que la gracia del Señor continúe bendiciendo sus hogares
y nuestra parroquia.

JUBILEE YEAR OF MERCY
Eleventh Sunday in Ordinary Time
- June 12, 2016
On today's Jubilee for Those Sick and
Suffering Disabilities, Jesus encounters a
woman who is "spiritually ill." She is thus
"disabled" from participating in Israel's
worshiping community or polite society.
Bathing Jesus' feet with tears, drying
them with unveiled hair, anointing them
(Luke 7:38) risk Jesus' becoming "unclean."
Yet his mercy welcomes even such
inappropriate behavior as her sincere
manifestation of love: "Your sins are
forgiven. Go in peace" (7:48, 50). Go not
just in "peace," but in shalom, the allenveloping, life-changing assurance of
God's mercy. She is anonymous, "known in
the city" only as "a sinful woman" (7:37). The
character with name and religious title,
"Simon the Pharisee" (7:36, 40), judges her
harshly, but himself not at all, and thus
forfeits God's mercy. This Jubilee Year of
Mercy challenges us to self-examination.
In which role do we most often cast ourselves,
humble sinner or judgmental Pharisee?
Jesus declares that only by an unfailing
willingness to show mercy to fellow sinners
can we hope to obtain mercy ourselves
(see Misericordiae Vultus, 9). Peter Scagnelli,

personas con Capacidades Diferentes,
Jesús encuentra a una mujer que está
"espiritualmente enferma". Ella no puede
participar plenamente ni en la comunidad
de culto y adoración de Israel ni en la sociedad.
Ella lava los pies de Jesús con sus lágrimas y los
seca con el cabello, ungiéndolos (Lucas 7:38)
arriesgando a que Jesús quede "impuro". Sin
embargo, su misericordia acoge estas acciones
inapropiadas como una manifestación
sincera de amor: "tus pecados son perdonados.
Vete en paz" (7:48, 50). No solo ve en
"paz", sino en shalom, con todo lo que esto
significa, la garantía de que la vida cambia con
la misericordia de Dios. Ella es una mujer
excluida y "solo conocida en la ciudad" como
"una mujer pecadora" (7:37). El personaje con
nombre y título religioso "Simón el fariseo"
(7:36, 40) la juzga muy fuertemente, pero él
mismo no se juzga y por lo tanto, desaprovecha
la misericordia de Dios. Este Año Jubilar de
la Misericordia nos desafía a hacer un examen
personal de conciencia. ¿En cuál situación
nos encontramos más frecuentemente, como
una persona que reconoce sus culpas o
como un fariseo listo para juzgar? Jesús
dice que mediante una voluntad inquebrantable
para mostrar misericordia a nuestros prójimos
pecadores nosotros mismos podemos
obtener misericordia (ver Misericordiae Vultus, 9).
