Sports seasons start early, even for young children, and while it’s great that they’re out getting exercise and learning new skills, safety is still a top priority. It’s recommended that all children who are playing school sports have an annual physical, and relevant health information (allergies, conditions, etc.) should be shared with coaches. Parents should make sure their children have the right gear, and that it fits and works wells. Children should stay well-hydrated, well-fed, and well-rested to keep up their energy and strength. Student athletes should be learning to be kind and fair, too, no matter the outcome of the game. For more tips visit http://www.la-archdiocese.org/org/protecting/Pages/VIRTUS-Current-Online-Articles.aspx Las temporadas deportivas comienzan temprano, incluso para los niños pequeños, y si bien es fantástico que estén haciendo ejercicio y aprendiendo nuevas habilidades, la seguridad sigue siendo una alta prioridad. Se recomienda que a todos los niños que practiquen deportes escolares se les haga un examen físico anual, y la información relevante de salud (alergias, condiciones, etc.) se debe compartir con los entrenadores. Los padres de familia deben asegurarse de que sus hijos tengan el equipo adecuado, y que calce y funcione bien. Los niños deben mantenerse bien hidratados, bien alimentados y bien descansados para mantener su energía y fuerza. Los estudiantes atletas deben aprender a ser amables y justos, sin importar el resultado del juego.

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION When an altar is dedicated, the Rite of Dedicaton directs that, if possible,

the relics of a martyr be mortared into the church floor under the mensa, or "altar table." Up until this revised rite, the general practice was to include small relics of saints in an altar stone, a slab of marble that was normally

set in the altar itself. Today's rite states a clear preference for "martyr," and for a substantial part of the body, in accord with our tradition's desire for

substantial symbols. Martyr, of course, means "witness" in Greek, and was the title given early on to the people who by their death imaged the death of

Christ. From the beginning, there has never been a shortage of such people,

although it took a while for the Church to develop a process to declare someone a martyr. Saint Augustine tells how it was done in the fifth century. By then, popular opinion didn't count as much as an official

tribunal set up by the bishop of the place where the martyr suffered. After the inquiry established that the person did indeed die for the faith, a

metropolitan bishop had to ratify the decision before a shrine could be built or an altar set up over the martyr's tomb. For the most part, the honor paid

to a martyr (called a "cult") was restricted to that diocese, although the fame of some heroes spread so much that they were celebrated elsewhere. The age of the martyrs is now, and more people died for the faith in the

twentieth century than ever before, witnessing to Christ to the end. Their sacrifice remains "the seed of the Church."

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE En las Sagradas Escrituras hay varias parejas como Abraham y Sara, Elcaná y Ana, y Zacarías e Isabel, que por alguna razón u otra no pueden engendrar hijos o hijas. Hay que saber que en muchas culturas la falta de descendencia es considerada un castigo divino. Dios, en su divina misericordia, ampara a estas parejas dándoles una prole. Según la literatura apócrifa cristiana, (el Evangelio de la Natividad de María, el Evangelio apócrifo de Mateo y el Protoevangelium de Santiago) a estas famosas parejas se pueden añadir los padres de la Virgen María, Joaquín y Ana. Esta pareja de la línea del rey David tampoco podía engendrar familia. En una fiesta judía, Joaquín (el hombre a quien Dios lleva) fue rechazado en el templo por no tener hijo o hija. Desdichado se retiró al desierto para implorar la bendición de Dios. Su esposa Ana (gracia, amor, plegaria) también imploró al Señor hasta que un ángel le anunció que Dios la había escuchado. El mismo ángel envió a Joaquín a su casa. A los nueve meses Ana dio a luz una niña a quien llamaron Miriam (María). --Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM, Copyright (c) J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.
