A Message from Fr. Tony/Un mensaje de parte de Padre Tony LOVE SHOWN IN ACTION Do you receive the word of God with joy as the Thessalonians did? Their faith showed in their ac ons. They became models for other believers. The first reading tells us to put our faith into ac on. This passage is part of a long list of ordinances God commanded the Israelites to observe. God will judge us by how we treat our neighbors. God will hear the cries of any whom we neglect or mistreat and will come to their defense. In today’s Gospel the Pharisees put the ques on of God’s law to Jesus. “Which commandment of the law is the greatest?” (Ma hew 22:36) How could he possibly choose from all the detailed commandments the Jews observed? He was sure to offend somebody by his answer! Of course, Jesus went right to the heart of the ma er. Love is the greatest commandment—love of God and love of neighbor. Everything else is based on this.

EL AMOR ESTÁ EN LA ACCIÓN ¿Recibes la palabra de Dios con gozo, al igual que hicieron los tesalonicenses? Su fe se reflejó en sus acciones. Se convir eron en ejemplo para otros creyentes. La primera lectura nos dice que pongamos nuestra fe en acción. Este pasaje es parte de una larga lista de reglas que Dios impone a los israelitas para su observancia y para respetar su Ley. Dios nos juzgará por cómo nosotros tratamos a nuestros semejantes. Dios escuchará los llantos de todo aquel al que desatendemos o maltratamos, y vendrá en su defensa. En el Evangelio de hoy, los fariseos plantean la cues ón de la Ley de Dios. “¿Cuál es el mandamiento más importante de la Ley?” (Mateo 22:36). ¿Cómo es posible que él pueda elegir de entre todos los detallados mandamientos que los judíos observaban? ¡Sin duda que ofendería a alguien con su respuesta! Sin embargo, Jesús fue derecho al grano. El amor es el más grande de todos los mandamientos, el amor de Dios y el amor del prójimo. Todo lo demás se basa en esto. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION Sadly, one of the most difficult reforms of the Second Va can Council for the Church to embrace has been one of the most thorough and beau ful: the sacrament of penance. Because it is individual and private, it has been difficult for the changes to take root. Some mes a priest may be grounded in the earlier form, and at other mes the penitent may resist the priest’s a empt to blend in the proper texts and rituals. Perhaps because the new form is almost iden cal in structure to the old, it has been difficult to insi tute. It may also be true that with the liturgy in English now, it is far more clear that the Eucharist, too, is a “sacrament of reconcilia on.” It is certainly true that there are different skills and gi s in ministry, and experienced penitents know that not all priests are equally at ease in this sacramental encounter. Some mes a difficult experience can drive people away from a liturgy that is spiritually rich and rewarding. Yet we know that one bad meal seldom puts people off restaurants forever: the dinner gong tends to dispel bad memories, and so we try again. Individual confession and absolu on is for us both treasure and tradi on. If you haven’t been for a while, consider coming back to praise God for this gi of mercy. —Rev. James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
