This gospel does show Jesus as having author-ity over the waters: he walks on the sea and at his will the wind dies down. Nevertheless, this
gospel is less about Jesus manifesting power in great events that it is an invitation to respond to Jesus, to come to him. We follow Jesus not because he is a great miracle worker but because he is the “Son of God.” It is far easier to come to Jesus in the obvious things; for example, faithful attendance at Mass. It is far more difficult to see God in the little things; for example, being pleasant when the poor are demanding, or giving back to a cashier too much change, or giving extra time to be present to chil-dren or spouse. (Living Liturgy, p.212)
Respect Life Judy Hyatt
Over the last several weeks, the history of con-firmation has been set out as a rite following bap-tism and preceding First Communion. Eucharist was a sacrament of spiri-tual maturity, attuned to the legal age of majority, which was considered to be fourteen years or so. Medieval bishops were often generous, if not es-pecially pious, in seeing to it that children were confirmed before adult-hood. A pattern more famil-iar to us surfaced in the Diocese of Toulon in France in 1748, where it w a s d e c r e e d t h a t “children are to be con-firmed only after receiving
Treasures from our Tradition
“A child is not something owed to one, but is a gift. The ‘supreme gift of marriage’ is a human person. A child may not be considered a piece of property, an idea to which an alleged ‘right to a child’ would lead. In this area, only the child possesses genuine rights: the right ‘to be the fruit of the spe-cific act of the conjugal love of his parents,’ and ‘the right to be respected as a person from the moment of his conception.’” — Catechism of the Catholic Church 2378
First Communion.” This was an amazing shift in practice that undermined centuries of theology and tradition by which confir-mation was seen as a bridge between font and table. The innovation swept through France and across Europe, despite constant complaints from Rome. French-trained bishops like Cheverus of Boston and Carroll of Balti-more, founders of the American church, estab-lished the practice here. The order of the sacraments was thus disrupted in France and in the United States, and remained an eccentric ex-ception to the rule until big developments in 1910. —Rev. James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
PRESENCE It is difficult to be truly present to another. We speak of putting in an appearance or showing up. Even when we arrive, we are often distracted. We think ahead, or we review an un-settled past. Nonetheless, we are at our best when we truly show up. We are most fully ourselves when we are absorbed in something worthy of us: creative work, good conversation, prayer. In these instances we are wholly ourselves and wholly outside ourselves. Elijah knew this kind of engagement. He was one of God’s great prophets. In today’s first reading, he follows God’s command to journey to that most holy place, Mount Horeb. And there in great silence, Elijah encounters God. As for Peter and the apos-tles, they discover the presence of God after the storm at sea. They and the sea and the winds are stunned into silent reverence.

Decimonoveno Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario
Hoy celebramos la memoria del santo patrono de los co-cineros, san Lorenzo. Este español del siglo tercero fue uno de siete diáconos del Papa Sixto II, en Roma. Su ministerio consistía en re-partir limosnas a los pobres. En el año 257 se pronunció una nueva persecu-ción a los cristianos en Roma y el día 6 de agosto unos sol-dados romanos asesinaron al Papa y a cuatro de sus diáco-nos. Lorenzo, cuyo nombre significa laureado o premia-do, fue arrestado tras la bata-lla y llevado ante el alcalde de Roma. Este mandó traer todas las riquezas de la Igle-sia, pero Lorenzo ya hacía tiempo que las había vendi-do para dar el dinero a los
más necesitados. No obs-tante, se marchó de la pre-sencia del alcalde para lue-go llegar con él, acompaña-do de gente pobre y enfer-ma, insistiendo que ellos eran las verdaderas rique-
zas de la Iglesia. El alcalde, furio-so, lo mandó que-mar sobre brazas para que muriera lentamente. S e g ú n
testigos de su martirio, Lo-renzo, a cierto punto dijo a sus asesinos: “Ya estoy asado de este lado, voltéen-me para asarme por com-pleto”. Eventualmente dijo: “La carne esta lista, ya pueden comer” y falleció orando por la conversión de Roma. —Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co
TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE
Planificación Natural Familiar es un término general para ciertos métodos utilizados para lograr y evitar embarazos. Estos métodos se basan en la observación de los signos naturales y los síntomas de las fases fértiles e infértiles del ciclo menstrual
de la mujer. Las parejas que usan la Planificación Natural Familiar para evitar el embarazo se abstienen de las relacio-nes sexuales durante la fase fértil del ciclo de la mujer. No hay medicamentos, dispositivos o procedimientos quirúrgi-cos que se utilizan para evitar el embarazo. Planificación Natural Familiar refleja la dignidad de la per-sona humana dentro del contexto del matrimonio y la vida familiar, promueve la apertura a la vida, y reconoce el va-lor del niño.
PRESENCIA Es difícil estar realmente presente ante otros. Habla-mos de aparecernos o dar signo de presencia. Aun cuando estamos allí, estamos distraídos. pensamos en lo que vie-ne, o revisitamos un pasado no resuelto. Sin embargo, somos lo mejor que podemos ser cuando estamos real-mente presentes. Somos nuestro más completo ser cuando estamos absorbidos en algo digno de nosotros: trabajo creativo, buena conversación, oración. En estas ocasiones somos totalmente nosotros mismos y totalmente fuera de nosotros. Elías conocía ese tipo de participación. Él era uno de los grandes profetas de Dios. En la primera lectura, él si-gue el mandamiento de Dios de ir a un sitio sagrado, el Monte Horeb. Y allí en gran silencio, el humilde Elías encontró a Dios. Y Pedro y los Apóstoles descubrieron la presencia de Dios después de la tormenta en el mar. Ellos, el mar y el viento se quedaron mudos en silencio reverente.
