Last Sunday, Cardinal DiNardo celebrated the
Confirmation of 110 of our young people. Many thanks to
the members of our Confirmation Class for their
stewardship of their time, abilities and treasure here at St.
Jerome Church. They have worked very hard preparing for
Confirmation following a two-year preparation period giving
themselves and getting ready to take on adult
responsibilities within our church.
We admire their
dedication and commitment. Many thanks to the staff
and teachers for their hard work, devotion and loyalty
to the parish community. Your generous support is
greatly appreciated. Being faithful stewards, week by
week, makes this day possible.

LETTER FROM OUR PASTOR
Dear Parishioners,
The Parable of the Prodigal Son is like a kaleidoscope: it offers
countless beautiful insights into what it means to follow Christ.
One of the insights we often overlook has to do with the greatest
danger we face as so-called "practicing Catholics": the danger of
living our faith only on the surface, of not letting it penetrate the
depths of our hearts. This parable teaches us that it is possible to
live "in the Father's house" without really getting to know the
Father. The younger son didn't really know his father. He didn't
know how much his father loved him and how eagerly his father
wanted to bequeath him prosperity and joy. As a result, he paid his
father a colossal insult by demanding his share of the inheritance
while his father was still alive. It was a way of saying that his father
would be of more use to him dead than alive. The older son was no
better. On the surface he seemed to do everything right, but he had
no idea about how much his father cared for him, and so he
resented the celebration at this brother's return. Although they had
lived their entire lives under the same roof, the two brothers had
never opened their hearts to their father; they had closed
themselves into the petty little world of their egoism. We can easily
do the same: spend our whole lives as "practicing" Catholics, going
through all the right motions and looking great on the outside, but
not opening our hearts to God, not getting to know him on a
personal, intimate level. That's a risky way to live our faith: we could
easily end up separated from the Father for good, eating corn husks
and missing out on the joyful celebration of the Father's love.
Now that we have been reminded of the true meaning of our lives,
we should be able to polish up our priorities for the week. What
enables us to mature as human beings and as Christians is staying
close to the shepherd. That means having a healthy prayer life and
being true to the voice of conscience, which is one of our
shepherd's favorite ways to guide us. Maybe some of us have been
slacking off in our prayer life or ignoring our conscience. Today,
let's ask our Lord's forgiveness and make a fresh start. And what
enables us to fulfill our mission in life is staying plugged into the
Church's mission.
That means knowing what the Church teaches, appreciating what
the Church offers her children. Maybe some of us have slacked off
in this area. Maybe we haven't picked up a Catholic book in
months, or years; have you finished the Matthew Kelly Book?
Maybe we don't even know that Pope Francis published several
books on Jesus Christ. Maybe we never really studied our Catechism
and have a lot of vague ideas about our faith. It is our responsibility
not to let ourselves get lost under the sofa again, now that Christ
has searched us out. Have you logged on to FORMED.org to find
great movies and programs?
After we pray the Creed next Sunday, when we make our offerings
to God, let’s put in the basket more than just dollars and cents. Let's
also put in that basket a promise to renew our effort in living life
the way Christ wants us to live it. If we make the decision, Christ
himself will help us follow through with it. After all, that's what
good shepherds do.
May God bless you.
Fr Dan
TWENTY-FOURTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
VIGESIMO CUARTO DOMINGO DEL TIEMPO ORDINARIO
CARTA DE NUESTRO PÁRROCO
Queridos Parroquianos,
La parábola del hijo pródigo es como un caleidoscopio: ofrece
innumerables ideas hermosas en lo que significa seguir a Cristo.
Una de las ideas que pasan por alto a menudo tiene que ver con el
mayor peligro que enfrentamos como supuestos "católicos
practicantes": el peligro de vivir nuestra fe solamente en la
superficie, de no dejarlo penetrar en las profundidades de nuestros
corazones. Esta parábola nos enseña que es posible vivir "en la casa
del padre" sin realmente conocer al padre. El hijo más joven no
conocía realmente a su padre. No sabía cuánto su padre lo amaba y
cómo ansiosamente su padre quería su prosperidad y alegría. Como
resultado, él dio a su padre un insulto colosal exigiendo su parte de
la herencia mientras su padre estaba aún vivo. Era una manera de
decir que su padre sería de más utilidad muerto que vivo. El hijo
mayor no era mejor. En la superficie parecía hacerlo todo bien, pero
no tenía idea sobre cuánto lo cuidaba su padre, y así él resentía la
celebración en el retorno de su hermano. Aunque habían vivido
toda su vida bajo el mismo techo, los dos hermanos nunca habían
abierto su corazón a su padre; ellos mismos se habían encerrado en
el pequeño mundillo de su egoísmo. Fácilmente podemos hacer lo
mismo: pasar nuestras vidas enteras como católicos “practicantes”,
pasando por todo lo que creemos bueno y solo nos vemos bien en
el exterior, por no abrir nuestros corazones a Dios, no llegar a
conocerlo en un nivel personal, íntimo. Esa es una forma arriesgada
de vivir nuestra fe: podríamos fácilmente terminar separados del
padre para el “bien”, comiendo solo las hojas de maíz y perderse en
la celebración gozosa del amor del padre.
Ahora que nos recordaron el verdadero sentido de nuestras vidas,
nosotros deberíamos ser capaces de pulir nuestras prioridades para
la semana. Lo que nos permite madurar como seres humanos y
como cristianos es quedarse cerca del pastor. Significa tener una
vida saludable en la oración y ser fiel a la voz de la conciencia, que
es una de las maneras favoritas de nuestro pastor que nos guía. Tal
vez algunos de nosotros hemos sido perezosos en nuestra vida de
oración o haciendo caso omiso de nuestra conciencia. Hoy, vamos a
pedir perdón de nuestro Señor y hacer un nuevo comienzo. Que
nos permita cumplir nuestra misión en la vida que es permanecer
conectados en la misión de la iglesia.
Eso significa saber lo que enseña la iglesia, apreciando lo que la
iglesia ofrece a sus hijos. Tal vez algunos de nosotros hemos sido
perezosos en esta área. Tal vez no hemos recogido un libro católico
en meses o años; ¿ha terminado de leer el libro de Matthew Kelly?
Tal vez ni siquiera saben que Papa Francisco publicó varios libros
sobre Jesucristo. Tal vez nunca estudiamos nuestro Catecismo y
tiene un montón de ideas vagas acerca de nuestra fe. Es nuestra
responsabilidad no perdernos en el sofá otra vez, ahora que Cristo
nos busca. ¿Te has registrado a FORMED.org para encontrar
grandes películas y programas?
Después de orar el credo el próximo domingo, cuando hacemos
nuestras ofrendas a Dios, vamos a poner en la cesta más que
dólares y centavos. También pongamos en esa canasta una
promesa de renovar nuestro esfuerzo en vivir la vida como Cristo
quiere que vivamos. Si tomamos la decisión, Cristo mismo nos
ayudará a seguir a través de él. Después de todo, eso es lo hacen los
buenos pastores.
Que Dios los bendiga. Padre Dan

LA EXALTACIÓN DE LA SANTA CRUZ - Para que
reconozcamos que nuestras vidas son regalos de Dios y que todo lo
que tenemos le pertenece a Él. "Porque tanto amó Dios al mundo,
que dio a su único Hijo..." (Juan 3:16.) Dios nos ha dado el regalo
de Su Hijo para que podamos disfrutar la salvación eterna. De todos
nuestros regalos, nuestra vida es la más preciada. Nosotros
pertenecemos a Dios. Es por eso que debemos tomarnos tiempo
diariamente para preguntarle cómo quiere que usemos la vida que
nos ha dado.

ask him the way to Minneapolis. If he leaves the plow and points the
way in the usual manner, I thank him and drive on. But if he picks up
the plow and points with it, I just load him in the car and head straight
to the registrar’s office.

¿BUSCA LA PLENA COMUNIÓN EN LA FE CATÓLICA?
Pronto vamos a comenzar una nueva temporada de R.C.I.A (Rito de
Iniciación Cristiana para Adultos). Estas clases son para adultos y
niños mayores de 7 años que: • Nunca han sido bautizados •
Quienes fueron bautizados en otra religión y ahora desean
unirse a la fe Católica • Adultos que, aunque bautizados en la fe
Católica, nunca recibieron su Primera Comunión o
Confirmación. Si eres uno de ellos y has escuchado la voz de Dios
que te llama a una profunda comunión con El en la fe Católica, llama
al Padre David (clases en inglés) o a María Álvarez (clases en
español) Registraciones son en la oficina.
