Stewardship
Reflecting on God’s Word
Veterans Day Prayer
Dear Lord, we honor our veterans, worthy men and women who gave their best when they were called upon to serve and protect their country. We pray that you will bless them, Lord, for their unselfish service in the continual struggle to preserve our freedom, our safety, and our country’s heritage, for all of us. Bless them abundantly for the hardships they faced, for the sacrifices they made, for their many different contributions to America’s victories over tyranny and oppression. We respect them, we thank them, we honor them, we are proud of them, and we pray that you will watch over these special people and bless them with peace and happiness. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen. Thirty‐Second Sunday in Ordinary Time
Sitting on the Mount of Olives, maybe with a premonition or maybe wondering if all that seemed to be approaching was really the undoing he dreaded, Jesus talked to his disciples about the coming end. He made the point that when worlds change, God comes, which is different from saying that when God comes, worlds change. He talked in poetry of a collapsing world to come. Collapsing worlds always offer the opportunity to meet God in new and unexpected ways. Our own deaths are undoubtedly the most drastic, but also the death of someone we love, a church in transition, shifting roles for men and women, a computerized age that blips and bleeps across our life screens, and empty‐nesting, and retirement, and marrying, and any other cosmic readjustment that you can think of. That’s when the Son of Man comes, for the second time or maybe a third or fourth time, and it tends to put us in a fog, as if he were coming in the clouds. Most of us struggle mightily to keep our worlds from collapsing. We’ve worked too hard to set them spinning in orbit around our own personal suns. Yet sooner or later they always do collapse, maybe because they lose their momentum, maybe because we lose our energy, or maybe that’s just the way it’s meant to be. Whatever the reason, those are the moments when our God comes riding into our lives. —Rev. Joseph J. Juknialis Copyright © 2014, World Library Publications.

We gather for prayer in the Blessed Sacrament Chapel at 7:30 p.m. All are most welcome! ________________________________________________________________________ What was Happening in the Fourth Century? The late fourth century would see the blossoming of several great mystical theologians, including St. Basil the Great, St. Gregory of Nyssa, St. Gregory of Nazianzus, and St. John Chrysostom. Basil was born in 330 in Pontus, near the southern coast of the Black Sea. He was born into a Christian family and eventually his parents and all four of his siblings would be venerated as saints. His grandfather and several other relatives had been martyred before the persecutions ended. Basil was educated by the best teachers in both Athens and Constantinople. He became a lawyer and a teacher of rhetoric until he met Bishop Eustathius of Sebaste who inspired in Basil a religious vocation. Basil sold all his possessions and for a while lived as a hermit. Finding that the solitary life did not fit him, he began to gather other religious men around him and formed a communal monastery. He is considered to be the Father of Monasticism in the Eastern Churches, as St. Benedict is in the West. Basil was ordained a priest in 365 and appointed Bishop of Caesarea, Cappadocia in 370. Basil had to deal with factions within the church who denied the divinity of Jesus, or of the Holy Spirit. He wrote extensively on the Trinity, and became famous for his homilies. Basil strived for clarity, speaking in language that ordinary people could understand and not depending entirely upon theological terminology. His ministry was not all in study, writing, and preaching, however. Basil established a soup kitchen and food distribution process for the poor, and actively worked with thieves and prostitutes to reform their lives and follow Christ. On land near Caesarea donated by the Emperor Valens, Basil had a large complex constructed which included a hospital, hospice, and a place of refuge and charitable services for the poor. Basil died in 379. St. Gregory of Nyssa was St. Basil’s little brother, born 2 years after Basil in Caesarea in Cappadocia. His earliest spiritual training was from his sister St. Macrina. Later he studied philosophy in his home town and reinterpreted both Stoic and Platonic philosophy according to Christian revelation. Gregory became an orator, and married Theosevia, a Christian woman from another devout and highly educated family. At the strong urging of his brother, Basil, Gregory became Bishop of Nyssa in 371. Marriage was not an obstacle to ordination at the time, and some of his writings centered on the passion of human love and the relationship of sexuality to mysticism. Theosevia died around 385 and was eulogized by a neighboring bishop as “a true saint and the true wife of a priest.” Gregory experienced such a deep attraction to mysticism that it became difficult for him to focus on the day‐to‐day administrative work of a bishop. His disorganization aided the Arians to depose and exile him in 376. However, two years later he was able to return to his diocese amid much rejoicing by the people. After his brother’s death, in 379, Gregory wrote polemical works against some other theological errors and heresies at the time. He also wrote several commentaries on Scripture, including the Song of Songs. In 386, Gregory left the city and adopted a monastic lifestyle. He continued his writing on the essence of God, the essence of humanity, the relationship within the Trinity, and the relationship between God and human beings, all his works being filled with a profound mystical awe. And, so, the story of the Church continues . . . LA IGLESIA CATÓLICA DE SAN NORBERTO | WWW.STNORBERTCHURCH.ORG

Ministerio Hispano
Reflexionemos sobre la
Palabra de Dios.
Trigésimo Segundo Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario La primera vez que conocí a una viuda fue a mi tía Lizzie: pelo blanco, aparentemente muy anciana, pero muy bondadosa. (Yo tenía cuatro años y ella probablemente estaba en sus sesentas. ¡Cómo cambia nuestra perspectiva en cuanto a la edad con el tiempo!) Ella vivía con mi madrina y mi tío, ya que había ayudado con sus ahorros a comprarles una casa. La segunda viuda que recuerdo es Lana Turner en su papel de La viuda alegre (título original: The Merry Widow) en la película del año 1952, que llevaba el mismo nombre. Ambas estaban a años luz, tanto histórica como culturalmente, de las viudas en las lecturas de hoy. Las viudas de los tiempos bíblicos corrían riesgos. Si no tenían hijos que se ocuparan de ellas su vida corría peligro. Los profetas del pasado denunciaban el descuido a las viudas y huérfanos. La viuda de la primera lectura tiene un hijo joven; ella recoge leña para hacer fuego y preparar algo de comer para ambos con lo último que le queda de harina y después morir los dos. Cuando Elías le pide que le prepare un pan ella generosamente lo hace, lo cual será su salvación. Más tarde Elías hasta le devuelve la vida al hijo de ella. Jesús ve como una viuda pone sus últimos (textualmente) centavos en las arcas del templo. Ya él anteriormente había advertido acerca de los escribas que “devoran los bienes de las viudas” mientras recitan largas oraciones (Marcos 12:40). Algunos dicen que Jesús lamenta la insensatez, pero la mayoría piensa que él elogia la generosidad de ella por dar “desde su pobreza todo lo que tenía para vivir” (12:44). Como ella, Jesús pronto pondrá toda su confianza en el Padre. —James A. Wallace, C.Ss.R. Derechos de autor © 2014, World Library Publications. Todos los derechos reservados.
