Thirtieth Sunday in Ordinary Time
The Law of Love
Having failed to trap
Jesus on the question of
paying taxes, the Pharisees try again. This time
they have an expert in
the law raise the question frequently asked of
rabbis in those days:
“Teacher, which commandment in the law is the
greatest?” Jesus’ answer combines two quotations
from Deuteronomy and Leviticus. From Deuteronomy 6:5, Jesus takes these following words: “You
shall love the Lord your God, with all your heart,
with all your soul, with all your strength.” From
Leviticus 19:18, Jesus quotes: “You shall love your
neighbor as yourself.” Jesus and the Pharisees do
not dispute the importance of the law. Their
disagreement has to do with emphasis. The
Pharisees, who tend to be legalistic, underscore
compliance to the law. In contrast, Jesus places
emphasis on love. For Jesus, love of God and people
is more important than obedience to the law. Also,
the Great Commandment joins together love of God
and neighbor – something that has not been
previously done. In one of his epistles, John
remarks: “How can you say you love God whom you
do not see when you do not love your neighbor
whom you can see” (1Jn 4:20).

You have a lot of questions about funerals...How can
your family prepare? Where should the vigil be held?
Should you have a rosary? Can non-Catholics
participate? Must a Catholic be buried at a Catholic
cemetery? What’s the difference between a homily
and a eulogy? Now is the time to get those questions
answered by the experts.
Jerry Balistreri from San Diego Funeral Service will be
here along with Samantha Betten from Holy Cross
Cemetery. Everyone is welcome. It’s never too early to
gather information so that you can plan ahead.

San Diego go to help local persons with intellectual
disabilities. Thanks for your support!
We would like St. Didacus to be a pie pick-up site on Wednesday,

readers or leading the group in singing the Patriotic songs
(especially Veterans!) please call Mary O’Connor at

Next Wednesday October 29th, we
will have RE at the Parish Hall to do
some crafts and altars for the Day of

“It’s a ‘wow’ experience, as far as I’m concerned, in
terms of materials, the way they were taught, the
personal style that Bishop Brom has...it makes
everyone a better disciple.”
—Doug Metz, a catechist at Sacred Heart Parish in
Coronado, after attending the Bishop’s talk.
We are all called to be Missionary Disciples and don’t let that scare you! Join us for a morning with Bishop Brom. He’ll
talk about how we answer the call to become Missionary Disciples. He will cover the topics of: God, sin and salvation,
the New Evangelization and Pope Francis’ “Joy of the Gospel.” This will be a very informative and fun morning that is
open to all parishioners. We hope to have a big turnout to welcome Bishop Brom. Call the Parish Office to RSVP so
that Bishop Brom knows how many hand-outs to bring.
Thanks to parishioner, Greg Wynne, for taking our great choir photos!

XXX Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario
AMAR A DIOS Y AL PROJIMO
Las lecturas de hoy fluyen directamente
de las del pasado domingo: de nuevo
Jesús es puesto a prueba por sus adversarios que desean tropezarlo a través de
debates astutos. La cuestión de que se
trata es concerniente a la Ley: “Maestro,
¿cuál es el mandamiento principal de la Ley?” En el corazón de la
relación judía con Dios esta en la Tora. Mas que ley, es la guía de
para la vida que guía las relaciones: la relación judía con Dios,
con otros judíos y pueblos, y con la tierra. Sabiamente Jesús,
usando una frase: “Lo que es odioso para ti, no se lo hagas a tu
prójimo. Cuando la pregunta fue planteada a Jesús, sin duda el
hubiese recordado textos como los de hoy tomados del libro del
Éxodo que requiere justicia y compasión para ambos israelitas y
forasteros. Sin embargo, el escogió su respuesta de dos otros
grandes textos judíos: “Amaras al Señor tu Dios con todo tu corazón, con toda tu alma, y con toda tu mente” del Deuteronomio
(6:4-9), recitado dos veces diariamente por judíos. Y del Levítico
(19:9-18), el lo añadió como un mandamiento acompañante:
“Amaras a tu prójimo como a ti mismo.” Para Jesús, estos dos
mandamientos son dos lados de la misma moneda. En el juicio
del textos de Mateo afirman este principio: “lo que le hagas al
mas pequeño de mis hermanos a mi me lo hiciste.” es la practica
del amor: “El que no ama no conoce a Dios, porque Dios es
amor”. El amor es el poder verdadero que es creativo, sanador,
liberador, transformador, en nuestras vidas y en nuestro mundo.
El amor creo al universo, el amor resucita a los muertos, el amor
da de comer al hambriento y viste al desnudo, cuida por y defiende al vulnerable, y se da audazmente sin interés propio. Y como
Pablo afirma: “El amor nunca falla” (1 Corintios 13).
Muchas gracias a todos los que participaron de alguna manera en el festival
de otoño de la escuela, comprando boletos para la rifa, o trabajaron arduo
este fin de semana, Gracias por apoyar
a nuestra escuela parroquial.
