Eighteenth Sunday
in Ordinary Time
August 2, 2015
Dear Parishioners,
God’s Work
We are so busy! Most of us have more than one job to do, and we never seem to have enough time. We are workers, volunteers, parents, friends, and
most of us are more than one thing at a time. But which of these is the work of
God?
We seldom view our ordinary work as being the work of God. We may
think that we have to be ministers or priests, missionaries or charity workers,
engaged full-time in works formally identified as being “God’s work.” But everything we do with a faithful heart and with love for others is God’s work. We
each have our own role to fill in the world, and many gifts are necessary. We
cannot always see the direct connection of our daily work to the plan of God.
But we trust and we believe that God leads us to do what is needed, where it is
needed. What is “God’s work?” “This is the work of God, that you believe in
the one he sent” (John 6:29).
Fr. Wilfredo Contreras

Estimados Feligreses
El Trabajo Que Dios Quiere
¡Estamos tan ocupados! Muchos de nosotros tenemos más de un trabajo y
parecería que nunca tenemos suficiente tiempo. Somos trabajadores, voluntarios, padres, amigos y la mayoría es más de una cosa a la vez. Pero, ¿cuál de estos es el trabajo que Dios quiere?
Rara vez vemos nuestro trabajo común como el trabajo que Dios quiere. Quizás pensamos que debemos ser ministros o sacerdotes, misioneros o benefactores, que
debemos realizar trabajos de tiempo completo que se consideran como “las obras de
Dios”. Pero todo lo que hacemos con un corazón fiel y con amor por el prójimo es
una obra de Dios. Cada uno tiene un papel que cumplir en el mundo y muchos dones
son necesarios. No siempre podemos ver la relación directa que existe entre nuestro
trabajo diario y los designios de Dios. Pero confiamos y tenemos fe en que Dios nos
guía a hacer lo que es necesario, cuando es necesario. ¿Cuál es “la obra de Dios?” “La
obra de Dios consiste en que crean en aquél a quien él ha enviado” (Juan 6:29).
