The day of the Lord is coming, Paul warns in today’s Epistle.
What matters isn’t the time or the season, but what the Lord finds
us doing with the new life, the graces He has given to us.
This is at the heart of Jesus’ parable in today’s Gospel.
Jesus is the Master. Having died, risen, and ascended into
heaven, He appears to have gone away for a long time.
By our baptism, He has entrusted to each of us a portion
of His “possessions,” a share in His divine life. He has given us
talents and responsibilities, according to the measure of our faith.
We are to be like the worthy wife in today’s First Reading,
and the faithful man we sing of in today’s Psalm. Like them, we
should walk in the “fear of the Lord” - in reverence, awe, and
thanksgiving for His marvelous gifts. This is the beginning of
wisdom.
This is not the “fear” of the useless servant in today’s
parable. His is the fear of a slave cowering before a cruel master;
the fear of one who refuses the relationship that God calls us to.
He has called us to be trusted servants, fellow workers,
using our talents to serve one another and His kingdom as good
stewards of His grace.
In this, we each have a different part to play.
Though the good servants in today’s parable were given
different numbers of talents, each “doubled” what he was given.
And each earned the same reward for his faithfulness - greater
responsibilities and a share of the Master’s joy.
So let us resolve again in this Eucharist to make much of what
we’ve been given, to do all for the glory of God. That we, too, may
approach our Master with confidence and love when He comes
to settle accounts.

Fiesta de la Dedicación de la Basílica de
Letrán
¿Por qué conmemorar, Pablo nos advierte en la Epístola
de hoy que el día del Señor llegará. No importa la hora o la
temporada, sino lo que el Señor nos encuentre haciendo con la
nueva vida y las gracias que El nos dio.
Esto es lo que está al centro de la parábola que cuenta
Jesús en el Evangelio de hoy. Jesús es el Maestro. Al morir,
resucitar y subir al cielo, nos parece que se ha alejado por mucho
tiempo.
Por medio de nuestro bautismo, nos ha encargado una
porción de sus “bienes”, una porción de su vida eterna. Nos ha
dado talentos y responsabilidades según la capacidad de nuestra
fe.
Debemos ser como la mujer hacendosa en la Primera
Lectura de hoy, y como el hombre dichoso del cual cantamos en
el Salmo. Como ellos, debemos “temer al Señor” – siguiendo
sus caminos con reverencia, admiración y gratitud por los
maravillosos dones que El nos da. Esto es el principio de la
sabiduría.
Este no es el “temor” del siervo inútil de la parábola de hoy.
El siervo demuestra el temor de un esclavo atemorizado ante un
maestro cruel, el temor de alguien que rechaza la relación a la
cual nos llama Dios.
Dios nos llama a ser sus siervos de confianza, sus
compañeros de trabajo, usando nuestros talentos para ponernos
al servicio de los demás y al servicio de su reino como buenos
administradores de su gracia. En esta labor, todos tenemos un
papel diferente que interpretar.
A pesar de que los siervos buenos de la parábola de hoy
recibieron diferentes cantidades de tesoro, cada uno duplicó
su cantidad y recibió la misma recompensa por su fidelidad –
confianza con cosas de más valor y tomar parte en la alegría de
su señor.
Hay que dedicarnos en esta Eucaristía a cosechar más con
lo que se nos ha dado, y hacerlo todo por la Gloria de Dios. Que
nosotros también podamos acercarnos al Maestro con confianza
y amor cuando El venga y nos llame a dar cuentas.
As members of Christ’s Body, the
Church, we have a share in His
prophetic, priestly & kingly
mission. “Sharing in His prophetic
mission, we come to know Christ
and make Him known.

student adoption program
Dear Friends of St. Rose of Lima,
As many of you are aware, every fall the school sends out a letter asking
that friends of the school consider donating to our Student Adoption Program. I know if you are like me, I receive countless donation requests that
all support a great cause. There is a point where you have to say no. Still,
consider the investment you are making if you contribute to Student Adoption Program.
Most of us agree that our country is at a crossroads in its moral standards.
As a Catholic Christian, it can become very frustrating listening to all the
media talk about new laws, initiatives, and agendas by those who would
love to take God out of the equation. Catholic schools not only provide a
framework of excellent academic education for young men and women but
also more importantly work with families to rise up future citizens that spread
the gospel of Jesus Christ through their Catholic faith. How can you help?
Like last year, some of our families are still experiencing many of the same
economic challenges. The economy still seems to have a negative hold on
some of them.
In the past, many of you have been incredibly generous with your donations
to help fund the Student Adoption Program. Once again we are asking for
your assistance. Based on your support, we will be able to help 20 of our
families with the cost of tuition.
Gratefully,
Mr. Jeff Saavedra (Principal)
Estimados Amigos de Santa Rosa de Lima,
Como tal vez ya sabe, cada otoño la escuela de Santa Rosa de Lima les escribe a los amigos de la escuela pidiendo que consideren dar una donación
a nuestro programa de Adoptar un Estudiante. Por experiencia propia, se
que seguramente ya reciben un sin fin de solicitudes para donativos y todas son para grandes causas. Hay un punto en el que tiene uno que decir
que no. Aun así, le pido que considere la inversión que estaría haciendo si
contribuye al Programa de Adoptar un Estudiante.
La mayoría de nosotros estamos de acuerdo que nuestro país se encuentra en una encrucijada en cuanto a los valores morales. Como un Cristiano
Católico, puede ser muy frustrante escuchar a los medios de comunicación
hablar acerca de leyes nuevas, iniciativas y agendas de aquellos que preferirían echar a un lado a Dios. Las escuelas Católicas no solo proporcionan
una base de educación académica excelente para los jóvenes, sino que,
aún más importante, trabajan con las familias para crear a los futuros ciudadanos que difundirán la palabra de Jesucristo a través de su fe Católica.
¿Cómo puede usted ayudar?
Algunas de nuestras familias siguen viviendo por las mismas situaciones
económicas difíciles del año pasado. La economía sigue afectando negativamente a varias de ellas.
En el pasado, muchos de ustedes han sido sumamente generosos con
sus donativos hacia el Programa de Adoptar un Estudiante y una vez más
estamos pidiendo su ayuda. Gracias a su apoyo, podremos ayudar a 20 de
nuestras familias con los costos de colegiatura.
