AT THE TABLE
In today’s first read-
ing, Wisdom is imagined
as a woman rich in poise
and grace. She moves
smoothly and confidently
about her temple‑like
home. She doesn’t flutter
about, nervous with
worry. Wisdom sends her
maidens to invite all to
her open house. The guests do not possess any particu-
lar genius or insight. They need only be a people of good
will and common sense. They are summoned to leave be-
hind foolishness and to find for themselves a place at
Wisdom’s table. There they may and can eat and drink
deeply.
Today’s Gospel draws us back to the table of the
Eucharist. Jesus addresses those who seek to under-
stand his words and, sadly, those who seek to avoid
them. As people born of God, we are called and equipped
to seek God’s will and act on it. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
A LA MESA En la primera lectura de hoy, la sabiduría se presen-ta como una mujer rica en aplomo y gracia. Se mueve fácilmente y con confianza en torno a su templo-hogar. No anda mariposeando, nerviosa y preocupada. La sabi-duría envía a sus doncellas a invitar a todos a su casa. Los invitados no tienen que tener ningún talento o conoci-miento en particular. Tan sólo necesitan ser personas de buena voluntad y sentido común. Se les llama a dejar atrás las tonterías y buscar para sí mismos un lugar a la mesa de la sabiduría. Ahí pueden comer y beber a fondo. El Evangelio de hoy nos lleva de nuevo a la mesa de la Eucaristía. Jesús les habla a aquellos que buscan enten-der sus palabras, y, tristemente, a aquellos que tratan de evadirlas. Como pueblo nacido de Dios, estamos llamados y preparados para buscar la voluntad de Dios y ponerla en práctica.
AMAR A AMBOS
Debemos amar a ambos –aquellos cuyas opiniones compar-
timos y aquellos cuyas opiniones rechazamos. Ambos han procu-
rado buscar la verdad, y ambos nos han ayudado a encontrarla.
—Santo Tomás de Aquino

DID YOU KNOW?
Keep the lines of communication open with children
Your relationship with your child will go through several
stages, but one thing to keep as a priority is the importance
of honest, open communication—both from your kids, and
from you. Your children should always know that they can
come talk to you about anything, no matter how serious, and
that you will make time to listen and respond. Without com-
munication, parents don’t know important things about their
kids’ lives who they talk to, where they go, who their friends
are. These parents are far more likely to miss danger signs
about potential bad influences or predators as well. For
more information on how to foster communication with your
child and for a copy of the article “Safety Rules by the Child
Rescue Network” email: [email protected]
¿SABÍA USTED? Mantenga abiertas las líneas de comunicación con los niños La relación con su hijo pasará por varias etapas, pero lo que debería ser una prioridad es la comunicación abierta y honesta – tanto para los padres como para los hijos. Sus hijos siempre deben saber que pueden venir a hablar con usted sobre cualquier cosa, no importa qué tan grave, y saber que está disponible para escuchar y responder. Sin la comunicación los padres no van a saber cosas importantes acerca de la vida de sus hijos – incluso con quien hablan, donde van y quiénes son sus amigos. Los padres que comunican con sus hijos son más probables a identificar señales de las influencias negativas y el abuso.

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION If the alb is the premier baptismal garment, then why are there so many other styles of vesture in evidence in our par-ishes? In some places, altar servers and other ministers might wear a garment, usually black, called a cassock. Over that is normally worn a white garment (a “surplice”), reminiscent of the alb but much shorter, often of starched linen and trimmed with lace. The cassock is not a liturgical garment, but a clerical robe. Its origins lie in the religious habit of monks. By the late Middle Ages, diocesan priests and clerics increas-ingly were encouraged to emulate religious priests. Very small boys were often apprenticed to monasteries, especially for music education, and would be invested with a cassock and sometimes even inducted into the ranks of clerics. For centuries before the Reformation, it was required that all men entering higher education be clerics, and so the cassock and its variations became familiar academic garb. At the Reformation, many ministers retained a form of the cas-sock as ordinary dress, rejecting liturgical garments. In the seventeenth century, the English Civil War was in part pro-voked by the Archbishop of Canterbury’s insistence that min-isters wear surplices. Although the Episcopal Church now re-tains “cassock and surplice” as the normal dress for lay men and women assisting at liturgy, Catholics are increasingly at-tentive to the deeply traditional treasure of the alb, our bap-tismal robe, when special liturgical vesture is needed. —Rev. James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
LOVE THEM BOTH
We must love them both—those whose opinions we
share and those whose opinions we reject. For both have
labored in the search for truth, and both have helped us
in the finding of it. —Thomas Aquinas

Faith Facts about Blessed Junípero Serra 14 Datos de fe sobre el Beato Junípero Serra
We are sharing with you a series of weekly bulletin posts of Blessed Junípero . Pope Francis is scheduled to canonize Fr. Serra on Sept. 23 at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in Washington D.C. He will became the first saint to be canonized on U.S. soil, and the first Hispanic saint in America. To learn more about Fr. Junípero
Serra, including his travels, legacy and news stories, I encourage you to view and share this link as well: www.stjunipero.org.
************************************************* 11. While Father Serra’s body lay in state at Mission San Car-los, mourners adorned his body with a blanket of flowers. The mourners included candle-holding soldiers from the presidio and crew of the San Carlos, Spanish craftsmen, artisans, laborers, and six hundred Native Americans. The singing of the Responsorio was almost drowned out by the “tears and sobs and wailing of those present,” according to Father Francisco Palou, Serra’s friend and first biographer. 11. Mientras el cuerpo del Padre Serra era velado en la Misión San Carlos, lo adornaron con una alfombra de flores. Muchas personas estaban presentes en su velorio, incluyendo soldados del presidio y personal de San Carlos sosteniendo velas, artesanos, artistas y trabajadores españoles y seiscientos americanos nativos. El canto del Responsorio casi era ahogado por las "lágrimas, sollo-zos y lamentos de los presentes”, según el Padre Francisco Palou, amigo y primer biógrafo de Serra. 12. When Father Serra died in 1784 he had established nine California missions, including two in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles. Those nine grew to 21 missions, from San Diego to So-noma, founded by Father Serra and succeeding Spanish friars. To-day, approximately 60 percent of the state's nearly 39 million people live in areas surrounding the missions, and El Camino Real, the road that Father Serra traveled on a tour of the missions shortly before his death. 12. Cuando el Padre Serra murió en 1784, había establecido nue-ve misiones en California, dos de ellas en la Arquidiócesis de Los Ángeles. Esas nueve misiones llegaron a ser 21 misiones, desde San Diego a Sonoma, fundadas por el Padre Serra y los frailes españo-les que lo sucedieron. Hoy en día, aproximadamente el 60% de la población de los casi 39 millones de habitantes del estado viven en áreas alrededor de las misiones y de ‘El Camino Real’, la ruta por la cual el Padre Serra viajó en una visita a las misiones poco antes de su muerte.

INTENTION / INTENCIONES
TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE Según la creencia de los aztecas, toltecas y otros indígenas, los niños y las niñas nacen sin rostro y co-razón. Corresponde a la familia formar en ellos y ellas el rostro (la personalidad), y el corazón (ánimo/ moti-vación) durante los primeros siete años de su vida. Rostro y corazón son una combinación para hablar de un tercer aspecto. En este caso rostro y corazón indican la persona bien formada. Los judíos de la época de Jesús también usaban ciertas palabras para indicar otras realidades. Cuerpo y sangre, por ejemplo, indican a la persona en su totalidad. El cuerpo muestra el carácter de la persona, mientras que la sangre indica su ánimo o motivación. Cuando Jesús nos invita a comer su Cuerpo y beber su Sangre nos está invitando a tomar su rostro y co-razón. Nuestra personalidad debe ser como la suya y nuestra motivación también. De esta manera entramos en íntima comunión con él, a quien comulgamos. En nuestro interior vamos aprendiendo a pensar y amar como él, mientras que exteriormente vamos aprendien-do a comportarnos como él. —Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
