Stewardship Reflections 31st Sunday in Ordinary Time

“But Zacchaeus stood there and said to the Lord, ‘Behold, half of my possessions, Lord, I will give to the poor, and if I extorted anything from anyone I shall repay it four times over.’” LUKE 19:8 We are all called to graciously give back to the Lord in proportion to the blessings we have been given. This means everyone isn’t called to give the same amount, but is called to give equal sacrifice. No amount is too small or insignificant! Open your heart, how is God calling you? Reflexiones de la Corresponsabilidad 310 Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario

"Pero Zaqueo se levantó y le dijo al Señor: Señor, le daré la mitad de mis bienes a los pobres, y si en algo defraudé a alguien, le devolveré cuatro veces más." Lucas 19: 8 Todos somos llamados a dar generosamente al Señor en proporción a las bendiciones que hemos recibido. Esto significa que no todo el mundo está llamado a dar la misma cantidad, sino que está llamado a dar el mismo sacrificio. ¡Ninguna cantidad es demasiado pequeña o insignificante! Abre tu corazón, ¿cómo te está llamando Dios?

Mission Sunday Reflection 31st Sunday in Ordinary Time This coming week we celebrate two important days in the life of the Church; All Saints and All Souls Day. Each feast day is intended to remind us of a particular aspect of our Christian faith. All Saints Day, November 1, is celebrated to remind us of the basic nature and unity of the Church. Many years ago (in the late 1970’s) there was a popular book titled “Made not Born.” This book discussed implementation of the RCIA program in a time when the RCIA was first reintroduced after the Second Vatican Council. The author’s point is—Christians are not born into the Faith, rather they are brought into the Faith by the Sacrament of Baptism. Through Baptism we become members of the Church—the adopted sons and daughters of God—and the brothers and sisters of Christ. In Baptism we become members of the Church and members of the Kingdom of God. In the truest sense of the word we become brothers and sisters in Christ through Baptism. As Catholics we are united to all the baptized—those followers of Christ who lived long ago are truly our brothers and sisters. Because the Church is a supernatural reality, that is unbounded by time or space, we can also say that we are mystically united to all believers: we are united to future generations of followers of Christ. All Souls Day, November 2, continues the basic message of All Saints yet with a specific intent. We are reminded to pray for those who have died. Nothing unclean or imperfect can come into the presence of God and since we all are imperfect there must be a way that our imperfection is reconciled. The Church’s doctrine concerning Purgatory addresses this. Purgatory is the process through which we are fully reconciled with God. God forgives the eternal consequences of sin when we seek forgiveness. We still must deal with the temporal consequences of sin: “temporal punishment for sin.” Our prayers for the dead assist them in this process of full reconciliation with God. The souls in Purgatory are bound for citizenship in Heaven; but only after the process of cleansing. 31° domingo del tiempo ordinario Esta semana celebramos dos días importantes en la vida de la iglesia, El Día de Todos los Santos, y el Día de los Fieles Difuntos. Cada fiesta es para recordarnos de un aspecto particular de nuestra fe Cristiana. El Día de Todos los Santos, Noviembre 1o, lo celebramos para recordarnos de la naturaleza básica y la unidad de la Iglesia. Hace muchos años, (en los últimos de los 1970), había un libro popular titulado “Made Not Born”, (Hecho no Nacido). Este libro habla de la implementación de el programa de RICA, en el tiempo que RICA fue introducido después del Segundo Concilio del Vaticano. El punto del autor es que Los Cristianos no nacemos en la fe, mas bien somos traídos a la fe por el Sacramento del Bautismo. Por el Bautismo somos convertidos en miembros de la Iglesia, hijos e hijas adoptivos de Dios y Hermanos de Cristo. En el bautismo somos convertidos en miembros de la Iglesia y miembros del reino de Dios. En el verdadero sentido de la palabra somos convertidos hermano en Cristo por el bautismo. Como católicos estamos unidos a todos los bautizados-esos seguidores de Cristo que vivieron hace mucho tiempo son verdaderamente nuestros hermanos y hermanas. Debido a que la Iglesia es una realidad sobrenatural, sin límites en tiempo o de espacio, también podemos decir que estamos unido místicamente a todos los creyentes: estamos unidos a las futuras generaciones de seguidores de Cristo. El Día de los Fieles Difuntos, Noviembre 2, continua el mensaje básico de Todos los Santos con una intención especifica. Se nos recuerda que debemos orar por los que han fallecido. Nada impuro o imperfecto puede entrar en la presencia de Dios y ya que todos somos imperfectos tiene que haber una manera de que se reconcilie nuestra imperfección. La doctrina de la iglesia sobre el Purgatoria cubre esto. El Purgatorio es el proceso a través del cual nos reconciliamos plenamente con Dios. Dios perdona las eternas consecuencias del pecado cuando nosotros buscamos el perdón. Todavía debemos enfrentar las consecuencias temporales del pecado “pena temporal por el pecado.” Nuestras oraciones por los fallecidos ayudan en este proceso de la plena reconciliación con Dios. Las Almas en el purgatorio se dirigen a la ciudadanía en el Cielo; pero sólo después de que el proceso de limpieza.
