Safe Environment Reminders: Bullying Part 1
Excerpt from Virtus bulletin by Deacon Anthony P. Rizzuto, PhD
First, let’s define what we’re talking about…bullying happens when someone keeps
hurting, frightening, threatening, or leaving someone out on purpose. Bullying is
unfair and one-sided, and may consist of hitting, teasing, taunting, spreading rumors
and gossip, stealing, or excluding someone from a group. It is carried out with the
intent to harm someone. It is often a repeated activity, but may also occur as a
one-time event. Bullying always involves a power imbalance. The person bullying
has more power due to factors of age, size, strength, support of friends, or access
to resources (such as toys and other belongings), and uses this power in a deliberately hurtful way…Although
national surveys indicate that childhood violence and abuse (Including bullying) have declined in recent years,
research continues to illustrate that, even while declining, bullying remains a highly prevalent behavior.
Fragmento del boletín de Virtus, por el Diácono Anthony P. Rizzuto, PhD
En primer lugar, vamos a definir lo que estamos hablando. El acoso (también conocido como intimidación
o “bullying”) ocurre cuando alguien continúa lastimando, aterrando, amenazando, o excluyendo a alguien a
propósito. El acoso es injusto y unilateral, y puede consistir de golpes, insultos, burlas, difusión de rumores
y chismes, robo, o exclusión de alguien de un grupo. Se realiza con la intención de hacerle daño a alguien.
A menudo se repite, pero también puede ocurrir una sola vez. El acoso siempre implica un desequilibrio de
poder. La persona que acosa tiene más poder debido a factores como la edad, el tamaño, la fuerza, el apoyo de
amigos, o el acceso a recursos (tales como juguetes y otras pertenencias), y utiliza esta energía de una manera
deliberada que hace daño. ... A pesar de que las encuestas nacionales indican que la violencia infantil y el abuso
(incluyendo el acoso) han disminuido en los últimos años, se continúa realizando investigaciones para ilustrar
que, aunque en declive, el acoso sigue siendo un comportamiento muy prevalente.
To report suspected abuse contact the Department of Children and Families abuse hotline at:
1-800-96ABUSE or 1-800-962-2873 or the Archdiocesan hotline at: 1-866-80ABUSE or 1-866-802-2873.

St. Francis Xavier Cabrini was born in Italy yet was the first American citizen to become
a Saint. She started a missionary order in honor of the Sacred Heart of Jesus to care for
the poor in hospitals and schools. When she arrived in New York City in 1889 without
even a place to stay with her small number of sisters, they made several Holy Hours
of Adoration before the Sacred Eucharistic Heart of Jesus every day despite their very
demanding schedule. She said: “Pray always with Jesus, always remembering that a soul
united with Him can do everything. At the time of her death in 1917, she had more than
four thousand sisters and over fifty houses in addition to many orphanages, schools and
hospitals worldwide.To sign up for an hour e-mail us at [email protected] or call 786242-0481.

donde parar con un número reducido de sus hermanas, hacían varias Horas Santas de Adoración ante el Sagrado
Corazón Eucarístico de Jesús a pesar de su exigente horario. La Madre Cabrini decía “Oren siempre junto con
Jesús, recuerden siempre que un alma unida a Jesús puede hacerlo todo.” Cuando la Madre Cabrini murió en
1917 tenía más de cuatro mil hermanas y más de cincuenta conventos además de muchos orfelinatos, escuelas
y hospitales en el mundo entero.

What a Treasure We Have in Our
Catholic Faith!
¡Que Tesoro tan Grande Tenemos en
Nuestra Fe Católica!
“You don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone”– the
saying is true enough. We don’t appreciate what we have until
we lose it. But its also true that we don’t know what we’ve got,
until we see others long for it and become so happy when they
finally get it. Such were the comments from the wonderful
men and women who participated in our RCIA this year. (RCIA
means Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults, a program of faith
formation tailored for adults.) They received the sacraments
this past Easter weekend. At our weekly meeting the following
Monday night, they kept commenting on how much Easter
meant to them as some of them received Baptism and all
of them received Confirmation and Eucharist for the first
time. We can take our faith for granted, especially we cradle
Catholics. We’ve always been baptized; since childhood we
have been coming to the Eucharist; Confirmation was just part
of the package of growing up Catholic. But for these new
Catholics, the sacraments meant everything!
Belonging. Some of the RCIA group have been
coming to the Church for many years with their families. Yet
they have always felt on the outside. Their Catholic relatives
went to receive the Eucharist, but these non-Catholics felt left
on the sidelines. After their Baptisms and Confirmations, they
came to the Lord’s table for the first time. No longer outsiders
but family. Almost surreal for them– they could finally do what
they had not been allowed to do. All of them talked about
how their participation in the Eucharist capped off their whole
journey. At the Lord’s table, they knew they belonged.
Clarity. We might take for granted our faith and
religious formation. These RCIA participants searched for
God as adults, with adult questions and needs. They found a
clarity of vision in who they were as people belonging to God
in Christ.
Insight. Different people felt struck by different
moments in the ceremonies. One said that she experienced
the moment of anointing in Confirmation as a moment of
God’s grace; it all came together for her. Another commented
that after her reception into the Church and Confirmation, she
knelt for the Eucharistic prayer and felt overwhelmed by the
reality of Christ’s presence. Her husband had told her for years
how important the Eucharist was, but there in the Church on
Easter she experienced the Lord’s wonderful working in the
Eucharist in a powerful way.
These newly baptized and confirmed Christians remind us how
precious our Catholic faith and way of life really are.
P.S. Remember Raul from last week’s “Musings.” He
finally went home to the Lord on Good Friday. We celebrated
his funeral Eucharist and burial on Easter Monday. He
completed the paschal mystery during the Sacred Triduum as
Lent turned into Easter, and he turned from life in this world to
eternal life in God’s kingdom.
“Uno no sabe lo que tiene hasta que no lo pierde” - el
dicho lo dice todo. No apreciamos lo que tenemos hasta que
lo perdemos. Pero también es cierto que no sabemos lo que
tenemos, hasta que no vemos a otros deseosos de tenerlo
y lo felices y contentos que se ponen cuando finalmente lo
logran. Tales fueron los comentarios que escuchamos de
estos maravillosos hombre y mujeres que participaron en el
RCIA de este año. (RCIA significa Rito de Iniciación Cristiana
para Adultos, un programa de formación de fe diseñado
para adultos.) Ellos recibieron los Sacramentos este pasado
fin de semana de Pascua. Al siguiente lunes en nuestra
reunión semanal, continuaban comentando de lo mucho
que significaba la Pascua para ellos, ya que algunos de ellos
fueron Bautizados, y todos recibiéron la Confirmación y la
Eucaristía por primera vez. Tomamos nuestra fe a la ligera,
sobre todo los que hemos nacido en la fe Católica. Nos
bautizaron de bebes; desde la infancia estamos viniendo a
la Eucaristía; luego la Confirmación era parte del paquete
creciendo como Católico. Pero para los nuevos Católicos,
los Sacramentos significan todo.
Perteneciendo. Algunos de los RCIA estan viniendo
a la Iglesia desde hace años con sus familias. Aun así, se
sentían que no pertenecían a nada. Sus familiares Católicos
recibían la Eucaristía, pero los no-Católicos se quedan
resagados. Después del Bautismo y la Confirmación, ellos
se acercaron a la mesa del Señor por primera vez. No
como extraños sino como familia. Algo casi irreal para ellos
- finalmente pueden participar de algo que no les estaba
permitido. Todos hablaban de cómo la participación en la
Eucaristía había cubierto todo su camino. Ante la mesa del
Señor ellos realizaron que pertenecían. Claridad. Podemos tomar nuestra fe y nuestra formación
religiosa a la ligera. Estos participantes de RCIA buscaron
a Dios como adultos, con las preguntas y las necesidades
del adulto. Encontraron la clara visión de lo que eran como
personas que pertenecen a Dios en Cristo.
Disernimiento. Diferentes personas se sintieron
impactadas en diferentes momentos de la ceremonia. Una
dijo que se impresionó en el momento de la unción en la
Confirmación como el momento de la gracia de Dios; todo se
conjuró para ella. Otra comentó que después de la recepción
en la Iglesia y la Confirmación, se arrodillo para la oración
Eucarística y se sintió impresionada por la real presencia de
Cristo. Su esposo llevaba años diciéndole lo importante que
es la Eucaristía, pero alli en la Iglesia en la celebración de la
Pascua ella sintió al Señor laborando maravillosamente en la
Eucristía en un día tan poderoso.
P.S. Recuerdan a Raul de los “Pensamientos” de
la semana pasada. El finalmente partió hacia el hogar del
Padre el viernes Santo. Celebramos el funeral Eucarístico el
lunes de Pascua. El completó el misterio Pascual durante el
Santo Tríduo cuando la Cuaresma se torna en la Pascua de
Resurrección, y él pasó de la vida en éste mundo a la eterna
en el Reino del Señor.
Yours in Christ,
