OUR LADY OF GUADALUPE CHURCH
Canonization
of Mother
Teresa
Pope Francis
will
declare
Blessed Teresa
of Kolkata a
saint at the
Vatican
on
Sunday, September
4th.
The date was
announced
March 15 during an "ordinary public consistory," a meeting of the pope, cardinals and promoters of
sainthood causes that formally ends the
sainthood process. The date chosen for her canonization is the eve of the 19th anniversary of her
death and the date previously established at the
Vatican for the conclusion of the Year of Mercy pilgrimage of people like her who are engaged in
works of mercy.
RCIA (The Rite of Christian Initiation) is the way to
become Catholic. Adults approach the church for a
variety of reasons and bring with them a personal
history and richness of life experiences. The OLG
RCIA Team responds with both information about
the church and a formational process that introduces the individual to the message of Jesus, prayer,
community, and service to others. The process invites participants to embark on a journey. There
are stages on the way, crossroads, and crisis, rest
stops, guides and companions who lead the way to
the final destination. These companions are team
members and sponsors, people from the parish
who want to share their faith and walk with others
as they discover what it means to be Catholic. Everyone is welcome to join. RCIA begins on
September 21, 2016 and is held on
Wednesdays from 7:00 pm to 8:30 pm.

VIGESIMOTERCERDOMINGODELTIEMPOORDINARIO PÁGINA DÍA 2
4 DE SEPTIEMBRE 2016
SEGUIR A JESUS PIDE RENUNCIAS. ¿ Estamos dispuestos?
No hay negociaciones en esto: o decidimos vivir como Dios manda, o elegimos dar al cuerpo lo
que nos pida. Si decidimos vivir como Dios manda tendremos que vivir luchando todos los días
contra las fuerzas del mal, aceptando los sacrificios y esfuerzos que esta lucha comporta. No podremos dejarnos vencer por el egoísmo, ni por el cansancio, ni por la desilusión; deberemos levantarnos cada mañana con el propósito firme de hacer el bien y vencer al mal. Optar por el cielo
es, en nuestro caso, dejarnos guiar por Dios, es decir, por el bien, por la bondad, por la justicia,
por el amor, por la fraternidad. No lo vamos a tener fácil, porque el cuerpo se resiste y de lo más
hondo de nuestro ser surgirán insinuaciones al mal, tentaciones, voces que nos llaman también
desde el exterior invitándonos al goce y al disfrute de lo más inmediato y de lo más terreno. Nadie
que opte por el cielo se va a librar de esta lucha, porque ni el mismo Cristo se libró de la misma:
“el espíritu está pronto, pero la carne está débil, enferma”, escribe el evangelista. Para vencer en
esta lucha no son suficientes nuestras solas fuerzas humanas, necesitamos la ayuda de Dios, la
gracia de Dios, pero esta gracia y esta ayuda no nos la va a negar Dios nunca.
Quien no lleve su cruz detrás de mí no puede ser discípulo mío. Nuestra cruz, nuestras cruces de
cada día, no nos las va a poder llevar nadie. Podremos tener cireneos que nos ayuden a llevar en
algunos momentos nuestra carga, pero tendremos que ser nosotros mismos los que llevemos el
peso diario y habitual de las pequeñas cruces de cada día. Vivimos en la tierra, en el suelo, y muchas veces esta tierra, este suelo, es un verdadero valle de lágrimas. Si optamos por vivir en este
suelo como auténticos hijos de Dios, la cruz va a ser una carga, una sombra que nunca nos va a
abandonar del todo. Es evidente que vamos a tener días buenos, días de sol y alegría, pero de las
nubes y de las tormentas de cada día no nos va a librar nadie. No necesitamos buscar cruces, ellas
vienen solas. Vivir como Dios manda es luchar, es sacrificarse, es aceptar la carga de pequeñas, o
no tan pequeñas, cruces que la misma vida nos manda. Ser discípulo de Cristo es caminar por
donde él caminó, es seguir sus pasos, desde Nazaret hasta Jerusalén, hasta el calvario y hasta la
resurrección. Con la cruz de cada día a cuestas.
El cuerpo mortal y el alma van juntos en esta vida. Después de todo, es la vieja doctrina paulina
de la lucha entre el cuerpo y el alma, entre el hombre viejo y el hombre nuevo. Por mucho tiempo
que pase, mientras el hombre sea hombre llevará siempre consigo, dentro de sí, esta lucha. Tenemos mucho de animal y algo o mucho de ángel; el cuerpo nos inclina hacia el suelo y al alma hacia
el cielo. No podemos despreciar, ni minusvalorar la importancia del cuerpo, porque somos cuerpo, pero tampoco debemos cortar las alas al ángel, porque también somos espíritu. La opción fundamental no anula, ni destruye las otras opciones, simplemente las regula y jerarquiza. No queremos vivir sólo como ángeles, ni sólo como cuerpos, queremos que el cuerpo obedezca al espíritu.
Esto no es fácil, esto supone una lucha continuada y de por vida. Esto es cargar con la cruz de
Cristo, para poder ser y vivir como auténticos discípulos de Cristo. Paz y Bien.

“Renounce your possessions,” the Gospel insists. We can’t say that we always have. Rather, it seems that we’ve often done more accumulating than renouncing. And yet each
accumulation may have made room for one
more way of being made new as the disciples
we all are called to become.
New
Hospitality
Ministry Volunteers
Needed
Our Lady of Guadalupe Church Hospitality Ministry is re organizing. We are looking for parishioners
who would like to help with funeral or wedding receptions, Senior lunches, Community Night dinners, potlucks etc. and other special events that happen our parish If you would like to learn more
about this ministry and be part of a this team please
come to a meeting on Wednesday September 21,
2016 from 7PM-9PM in the parish hall.
This
year,
the
Church will celebrate Catechetical
Sunday on September 18, 2016 and
will focus on the
theme "Prayer: The
Faith
P r a ye d . "
Those who the Community has designated to
serve as catechists will be called forth to be
commissioned for their ministry. Catechetical
Sunday is a wonderful opportunity to reflect on
the role that each person plays, by virtue of
Baptism, in handing on the faith and being a
witness to the Gospel. Catechetical Sunday is
an opportunity for all to rededicate themselves
to this mission as a community of faith.
Twenty-third Sunday
in Ordinary Time
"If anyone comes to me without hating . . . father and
mother, wife and children,
brothers and sisters, and
even his [or her] own
life" (Luke 14:26). Hating?
Can anyone imagine a less
appropriate Gospel for the
Jubilee Year of Mercy? But
scholars call this Semitic hyperbole. Jesus exaggerates to jolt us into confronting life-changing challenges. Faced with
conflicting loyalties, disciples must reorder
priorities, even relationships, to give Jesus
and the gospel's demands first place. Today's
second reading presents a real-life example.
Paul challenges his wealthy convert, Philemon, to welcome back Philemon's runaway
slave, Onesimus, whom Paul has baptized in
prison. Not only with unconditional forgiveness but with a counter-cultural, worldshattering change of status--as an equal. No,
even more--a beloved brother in Christ.
What in my life does the Jubilee Year of Mercy challenge me to "hate"--meaning reform,
redo, even utterly revamp--so I can give everyone, no conditions, no exceptions, shockingly Christ-like love?
