There are many times when we say, “Tell me what I want to hear, and don’t confuse me with facts.” And we don’t take kindly to someone who might be bold enough to snuff out our expectations.

The biggest problem with such an attitude is not that we miss out on the truth or the facts, but that we miss out on the new and surprising gifts others can give us. Like the townspeople in today’s Gospel story, we too often refuse to allow others to display the talents that can be good news for us.

Today’s readings call for hospitality and faith and discernment. Hospitality opens the doors of our hearts and minds to the “stranger” among us, no matter how familiar he or she may seem to be. Faith enables us to accept the gifts of others, no matter how alarming or “strange” they may seem to be. Discernment helps us discover the prophets in our midst, no matter how amazing they may seem to be. Hospitality, faith, and discernment—cultivate these. Then, nobody can bring bad news.

“Fear leads us to look at the difficulties, the awful problems and not to look at the Lord… How often we remain fixated on problems rather than going to the Lord and casting our concerns into him! How often we leave the Lord in a corner, at the bottom of the boat of life, to wake him only in a moment of need! Today, let us ask for the grace of a faith that never tires of seeking the Lord, of knocking at the door of his Heart. May the Virgin Mary, who in her life never stopped trusting in God, reawaken in us the basic need of entrusting ourselves to him each day.”

Pope Francis

Little Mysteries

Two small rites—or, as one liturgist has called them, “little mysteries”—accompany the preparation of the gifts. The priest or deacon takes a small cruet of water from the server and adds a drop of water to the wine. Then, after the elevation of the chalice (and the incensation, if incense is used), the priest washes his hands. Both of these actions were at first practical, matter-of-fact realities: in the ancient world the wine was usually quite thick, and was generally mixed with water before it was drunk. And in the early church, when the faithful brought forward a great variety of gifts at this time, there was a definite need for the presider to wash his hands!

But now these rites serve a purely symbolic function. The mingling of the water and wine is accompanied by a prayer that speaks of the wonderful exchange of the Mass, the mingling of Christ’s divinity and our humanity. And as the priest washes his hands, he prays words of supplication from Psalm 51, acknowledging his own sinfulness in the presence of the assembly before he dares to approach the altar for this most sacred action. —Corinna Laughlin, Copyright © J.

It is every parent’s worst nightmare — losing a child somewhere. If your child is missing, knowing what to do and acting quickly can help bring him/her home safely. First, call the police. Give them a full description of what your child looks like, what he/she was wearing, when you last saw him/her. Provide pictures if possible. Then call the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children at 1-800-THE-LOST (1-800-843-5678). If your child is missing from home, check your house thoroughly: behind and in large appliances, in closets, under beds, in your cars.

El Vino

Mientras que el pan nos da la fuerza, el vino nos da la alegría. Su consumo no es tan esencial como el agua, pero al compartirlo hace sacra la vida aún más, refirma la amistad y significa también la vitalidad humana. El vino es la plenitud de la vida, es símbolo de la felicidad y prosperidad. Siendo el nuevo Israel, la Iglesia, es el nuevo vino que en ofrenda se presenta ante el altar. En el Antiguo Testamento el mismo pueblo de Dios fue comparado con una viña (Isaías 5:1 – 7). Al presentar el vino con el pan al altar, estamos simbolizando nuestra humanidad total, en sus procesos de cambio y aspiraciones más profundas. Este vino que ofrecemos, nos recuerda lo más íntimo y sagrado de un ser humano: su sangre y con ella la vida en todo sentido. Como cristianos, beberemos este mismo vino, siendo ya Sangre del Señor, porque con esta acción estamos dispuestos a beber su cáliz, a compartir su suerte, a asumir su cruz. Ofrecer pan y vino en el altar es ofrecer nuestra propia vida a hacernos pan para que todos coman; vino para que todos tengan vida en abundancia.

La peor pesadilla de todo padre de familia es perder a un hijo en alguna parte. Si su hijo o hija está perdido/a, saber qué hacer y actuar rápidamente puede ayudarlo/a a regresar a casa de manera segura. Primero, llame a la

policía. Deles una descripción completa de cómo se ve su hijo, qué vestía, la última vez que lo vio. Si es posible, proporcione fotografías. Luego llame al Centro Nacional para Niños Desaparecidos y Explotados al 1-800-THE-LOST (1-800-843-5678). Si su hijo o hija no está en casa, revise su casa a fondo: detrás y dentro de electrodomésticos grandes, en armarios, debajo de las camas, en sus automóviles.

Para obtener ayuda, llame a la Oficina del Ministerio de Ayuda al (213) 637-7650.

“El miedo nos lleva a mirar las dificultades, los problemas difíciles y no a mirar al Señor… ¡Cuántas veces nos quedamos mirando los problemas en vez de ir al Señor y dejarle a Él nuestras preocupaciones! ¡Cuántas veces dejamos al Señor en un rincón, en el fondo de la barca de la vida, para despertarlo solo en el momento de la necesidad! Pidamos hoy la gracia de una fe que no se canse de buscar al Señor, de llamar a la puerta de su Corazón.”

Hay muchas veces cuando decimos: “Dime lo que quiero escuchar, y no me confundas con datos”. Y no vemos con buenos ojos a alguien que podría ser lo suficientemente audaz y acabe con nuestras expectativas. El mayor problema con esa actitud no es que nos perdemos la verdad o los hechos, sino que nos perdemos los regalos nuevos y sorprendentes que otros nos pueden dar. Al igual que la gente del pueblo en el relato del Evangelio de hoy, nosotros también a menudo nos negamos a permitir que otros muestren los talentos que pueden ser una buena noticia para nosotros. Las lecturas de hoy piden hospitalidad, fe y discernimiento. La hospitalidad abre las puertas de nuestro corazón y nuestras mentes a los “forasteros” entre nosotros, no importa lo familiar que él o ella puede parecer. La fe nos permite aceptar los dones de los demás, no importa cuán alarmante o “extraños” nos puedan parecer. El discernimiento nos ayuda a descubrir a los profetas entre nosotros, no importa lo increíbles que puedan parecer. Hospitalidad, fe y discernimiento –cultívalos. Así, nadie podrá traerte malas noticias.
