FROM THE PASTOR’S DESK

Dear Parish Family,

Peace and all good!

“Power: the capacity of an individual or a group to exert

their will over others.” As a nervous college freshman, I

dutifully jotted down these words at a lecture. You never

know; they just might come up on a test. I didn’t reflectmuch upon this definition at the time, but somehow its

come back to me—more than four decades later-- this

fourth and final week of Advent.

Power. These readings are all about power—God’s

Power—in our world and in our lives. In the first reading,

David’s “power,” juxtaposed with the Lord’s Power

quickly melts down into a form of silly presumptuousness.

“Go tell my servant David,” God instructs the prophet

Nathan in a dream. “’Thus says the Lord: Should you

build me a house to dwell in?’’ (2 Samuel: 1-5). David is

a king, a big shot, revered and feared by his people. But

he forgets that he enjoys his power at the behest of theLord, who can pull the plug any old time. David under-

stands worldly power, but has conveniently forgotten its

true spiritual dimensions and origin. His offer to build a

temple for the Lord is exactly as it appears: a gesture that

is naively patronizing and condescending. Luckily, the

Lord is generous and forgiving—and has a sense of humor

about His servant David.

Mary, on the other hand, does not need to be re-

minded about who she really is. She understands the true

nature of power—of God’s Power—in her life. God’s

“power” is rooted in His Love for all of Creation and all of

His creatures—it is not the exertion of force which impliesviolence or coercion. It is to this Loving Power that Mary

offers her consent and surrender—but not immediately.

Mary is no puppet or automaton. She recognizes her

God-given power—to think, to reflect, to discern for her-

self in the freedom of God’s Love. God has put a good,

sensible head on her shoulders. Mary pauses—not to

deny God’s command—but to reflect honestly upon the

enormous commitment that she has been asked to make.

In this weekend’s Gospel from Luke (1:26-38), we are told

that Mary is ‘greatly troubled’ and that she ‘pondered’

upon the meaning and implications of the angel Gabriel’s

message and invitation from God to become the motherof Jesus.

Mary understands clearly that God’s Power is her free-

dom. She is a human being; she needs to consider every-

thing that she knows about herself, everything that she

has experienced of God’s presence of her life; everything

that she has been taught about God and herself by her

family and tradition. And when she has completed this

process (the Scriptures don’t tell us how long this took!),



she gives her consent freely, openly, completely, and with-

out reserve. She willingly concedes her ‘power’ to God’s

Power. And she is free. Free to be the Mother of Jesus,

the Mother of God. Free to be her best and truest self,

regardless of what any other person/ people should think

or do or say about her. This freedom is both her choice

and God’s great gift.

Let’s be honest: for us, in our time, this freedom to ac-

cept the transforming Power of God’s Love and Life in ourlives is frankly quite overwhelming. It is much easier to

sentimentalize Mary’s story and struggle; to tame it into a

quaintly romantic fairy tale. But the intrinsic Power of

God’s Living Word breaks through our flight and fright.

The challenge given to Mary is one given to each of us at

the Advent of Christ’s coming: to let go of our self-

centeredness, and our self-centered fears to allow Christ

to be born in our hearts and in our world. In our surren-

der, God’s saving Power is made manifest. And in our sur-

render, we are freed and free. Blessed be God forever!

God bless,

Fr. Chuck

mitment required. If you only 'suspect' you might enjoy this

LIBRARY CATEGORY: FRANCISCANS

Most of us are aware that ours is a Franciscan parish. But if

you aren’t clear about what that means, our library collection

on the Franciscans includes many books about this religious

order which makes our parish unique.

G. K. Chesterton’s book, St. Francis of Assisi, is a

biographical portrait of a very human St. Francis, born into a

society moving from the medieval world toward the emerging

Renaissance. He portrays the disillusioned soldier who whole-

heartedly embraces a life of joyful poverty and service to oth-

ers. He describes St. Francis’ view of a world reflecting God in

all people, creatures and things.

In Tales of St. Francis, Ancient Stories for Contem-porary Living, Murray Bodo uses a variety of sources and leg-

ends about St. Francis to demonstrate the saint’s love and

courage living in a materialistic world.And Marco Bartoli, in his book Saint Clare Beyond

the Legend, tells the story of the enthusiastic first woman

follower of St. Francis. This young founder of the Poor Clares

from her cloistered monastery at San Damaino becomes the

custodian of Franciscan history through her writings.

The Parish Children’s Choir is lookingfor parishioners to help sponsor uswith donations to get choir robes. If you can help, please write a check tothe parish and specify that it’s for thechildren’s choir robes. If you’d like

more information, you can contact ourDirector of Worship, Lupe Rios, at

[email protected]. Thank you!

8 | PARROQUIA MISION SAN LUIS REY, Oceanside, California — 18 de diciembre del 2011

Querida Familia Parroquial,

¡Paz y todo bien! “Poder: la capacidad de un individuo o

un grupo de ejercer su voluntad sobre otros.” Como un

universitario nervioso de primer año, yo anoté obediente-

mente estas palabras en una conferencia. Tu nunca sabes;

estas podrían resultar en un examen. En ese momento yono hice mucha reflexión sobre esta definición, pero de algu-

na forma ha vuelto a mi—más de cuatro décadas después --

esta semana cuarta y última de Adviento.

Poder. Todas estas lecturas tratan sobre el poder—el

Poder de Dios—en nuestro mundo y en nuestras vidas. En

la primera lectura, el “poder” de David, en contraste al po-

der del Señor, es disminuído a ser una presuntuosidad ab-

surda. “Ve y habla con mi siervo David”, Dios instruye al

profeta Natán en un sueño. “Yo, el Señor, he dicho: ¿No

serás tú quien me construya un templo para que habite en

él?” (2 Samuel: 1-5.) David es un rey, un mandamás, reve-

renciado y temido por su pueblo. Pero se le olvida que él

disfruta de su poder por el mandato del Señor, quien puede

quitarle el poder en cualquier momento. David entiende el

poder mundano, pero ha olvidado convenientemente la

verdadera dimensión espiritual y origen. Su oferta de cons-

truir un templo para el Señor es exactamente como parece:

un gesto ingenuamente condescendiente. Afortunadamen-

te, el Señor es generoso y clemente—y tiene un sentido

del humor sobre su discípulo David.

María, por otro lado, no necesita ser recordada sobre

quién realmente ella es. Ella entiende la verdadera natura-

leza del Poder—del Poder de Dios—en su vida. El “poder”

de Dios es una raíz del Su amor por toda la creación y por

todas Sus criaturas—no es un esfuerzo excesivo que implicaviolencia o coerción. Es a este Poder Amoroso que María

ofrece su consentimiento y entrega—pero no inmediata-

mente.

María no es un títere o una autómata. Ella reconoce su

poder dado—por Dios para pensar, reflexionar, para discer-

nir por sí misma en la libertad del amor de Dios. Dios ha

puesto una cabeza buena y sensible en sus hombros. María

hace una pausa—no para negarse al comando de Dios—

sino para reflejar honestamente sobre el compromiso enor-

me que se le ha pedido a ella hacer. En el Evangelio de este

fin de semana de Lucas (1:26-38), se nos dice que María

está ‘muy turbada’ y que ella ‘reflexionó’ sobre el significa-

do e implicaciones del mensaje del ángel Gabriel y la invita-

ción de Dios de convertirse en la madre de Jesús.

María entiende claramente que el Poder de Dios es su

salvación. Ella es un ser humano; debe considerar todo lo

que ella sabe de sí misma, todo lo que ella ha experimenta-

do de la presencia de Dios en su vida;

Continúa en la siguiente columna...

Del Escritorio del Párrocotodo lo que a ella se le ha enseñado sobre Dios y sobre ella

misma por parte de su familia y de la tradición y cuando ella

haya realizado este proceso (¡las Escrituras no nos dicen

cuanto tiempo ella se tomo!), ella da su consentimiento li-

bremente, abiertamente, completamente y sin reservas. Ella

concede de buena voluntad su ‘poder’ al Poder de Dios. Y

ella es libre. Libre para ser la Madre de Jesús, la Madre de

Dios. Libre para ser ella misma mejor y más verdadera, sin

tener en cuenta lo que cualquier otra persona/gente pudie-ran pensar o hacer o decir sobre ella. Esta libertad es su de-

cisión y también el gran regalo de Dios.

Seamos honestos: para nosotros, en nuestro tiempo, esta

libertad de aceptar el Poder de la transformación del Amor y

Poder de Dios en nuestras vidas es francamente bastante

abrumador. Es mucho más fácil ponerse sentimental de la

historia y lucha de María; a tomarla en un cuento de hadas

pintoresco y romántico. Pero el Poder intrínseco de la Pala-

bra Viviente de Dios penetra nuestro vuelo y nuestro temor.

El reto dado a María es uno que se nos da a cada uno de

nosotros en el Adviento de la Venida de Cristo: dejar ir de

nuestro ego-centrismo, y nuestros auto-temores centrados

para permitir a Cristo nacer en nuestros corazones y en

nuestro mundo. En nuestra entrega, el Poder de la salvación

de Dios se manifiesta. Y en nuestra entrega, nosotros somos

liberados y libres. ¡Bendito sea Dios por siempre!

Dios los bendiga,

Padre Chuck

Año de Planificación Final

Si tu has estado leyendo la sección de negocios en cual-quiera de nuestros periódicos locales sin duda te has dadocuenta que las columnas de asesoramiento de la planifica-ción de impuestos del fin de año ya comienzan a aparecer. Elúltimo trimestre del año es el momento necesario para to-mar una acción para reducir la responsabilidad de los im-puestos que está a la vuelta de la esquina. Muchas personasescogen dar donaciones caritativas para reducir sus impues-tos. Si este es tu plan, por favor no te olvides de nuestra pa-rroquia. Si tu necesitas hacer un retiro obligatorio de tu “IRA”este puede hacerse directamente a la iglesia y evitar el im-puesto. Sabemos que hay muchas demandas de tus recursos,y muchas organizaciones caritativas pidiendo tu regalo, solorecuerda que lo que tu das a la iglesia se utiliza aquí mismo.

Puede ser para alimentar al menos privilegiado, educaciónpara los jóvenes, o servicios para otros sectores de nuestracomunidad, pero se queda aquí.

Si hay una necesidad especial que tu desearías que tu re-galo sea utilizado solo déjanoslo saber con una nota y noso-tros honraremos tu deseo. Gracias por todo lo que haces ypor todo lo que nos das. Nuestra parroquia es más fuerte yenfrenta mejor las necesidades locales por tus regalos.

Allen Hartman, Gerente de Negocios

NOTA CATEQUETICASPREGUNTAS DEL MISAL ROMANO

Se han estado haciendo muchas preguntas ahora, que

estamos celebrando la Misa con la traducción nueva del Mi-

sal Romano. Cada otra semana una de las preguntas será

dirigida (¡ojalá!)

PREGUNTA #1En la consagración ahora estamos usando la palabra cáliz

en vez de copa como lo hacíamos antes. ¿Por qué?

RESPUESTA Hay dos palabras en latín para tomar del recipiente:

“poculum” es el término genérico para cualquier tipo de reci-

piente de bebida y usualmente es traducido como “copa.” La

palabra “calix” en latín significa “cáliz” sin embargo es usada

más exclusivamente para un recipiente de comunión, desti-

nado a ser compartido con otros bebedores.*

En la traducción de la Biblia en latín, la vulgata por San

Gerónimo, la palabra griega “proterion” en las palabras de la

consagración se traduce como “calix”, como una dimensión

comunal presente. Similarmente, los textos del Misal, siem-

pre han usado calix (“cáliz”) en vez de poculum (“copa”) enlas palabras de constitución y consagración.

Esta decisión es reforzada por la practica de ciertos pro-

testantes y reformadores en intencionalmente remover la

palabra cáliz de su traducción debido a una conexión percibi-

da entre la palabra cáliz, y la naturaleza sacrificial de la Misa.

*La importancia de la dimensión comunal del cáliz es evi-

dente por la retracción rápida por la Diócesis Phoenix en de-

claraciones por su Oficina de Liturgia sobre posibles restric-

ciones de a recepción de la comunión bajo las dos especies.

En los Estados Unidos, la comunión siendo recibida bajo las

dos especies “es la norma y de ser celebrada como tal.”
