Renewal of CORI Forms

One of the requirements of service to the parish is to renew your CORI form every year. It is a require-ment form the Archdiocese and helps to make sure that the people who offer their service have not conflicted with the law especially about minors. We ask all Catechists, Ministers of the Word (Lectors), Eucharistic Ministers, Ushers, Hospitality, and Choir members, all those who are in contact with Altar Servers, or anyone offering their service, please re-new your CORI. This year Sheila Polanco is going to be in charge of

all CORI requirements

CORI:

Llego el tiempo para todos los colaboradores de nuestra Parroquia llenar el CORI. Todos los que trabajen en algún ministerio (Coordinador de gru-po, Lector, Ministro de Comunión, Catequista, Ujier, Coro, Folk Festival, visita a los enfermos… etc. ) están requridos por la Arquidiócesis de Boston a llenar el CORI.

Sheila Polanco esta encargada del CORI,

Agradecemos su colaboración.

ENGLISH

Consuming Fire Twentieth Sunday in Ordinary Time (Cycle C)

Our God is a consuming fire, the Scriptures tell us (see

Hebrews 12:29; Deuteronomy 4:24).

And in this week’s Gospel, Jesus uses the image of fire to describe the demands of discipleship.

The fire he has come to cast on the earth is the fire that he wants to blaze in each of our hearts. He made us from the dust of the earth (see Genesis 2:7), and filled us with the fire of the Holy Spirit in baptism (see Luke 3:16). We were baptized into his death (see Romans 6:3). This is the

baptism our Lord speaks of in the Gospel this week. The baptism with which He must be baptized is His passion and death, by which He accomplished our redemption and sent forth the fire of the Spirit on the earth .

The fire has been set, but it is not yet blazing. We are called to enter deeper into the consuming love of God. We must examine our consciences and our actions, submitting ourselves to the revaling fire of God’s Word .In our struggle against sin, we have not yet resisted to the point of shedding our own blood, Paul tells us in this week’s Epistle. We have not undergone the suffering that Jeremiah suffers in the First Reading this week.

But this is what true discipleship requires. To be a disciple is to be inflamed with the love of the God. It is to have an unquenchable desire for holiness and zeal for the salvation of our brothers and sisters.

Being His disciple does not bring peace in the false way that the world proclaims peace (see Jeremiah 8:11). It means division and hardship. It may bring us to conflict with our own flesh and blood. But Christ is our peace (see Ephesians 2:14). By his cross, he has lifted us up from the mire of sin and death—as he will rescue the prophet Jeremiah (see Jeremiah 38:10).

And as we sing in the Psalm this week, we trust in our deliverer. St. Paul Center for Biblical Theology / www.SalvationHistory.com

Oremos por los Enfermos

Oración: Señor Jesucristo, que para redimir a los hombres y sanar a los enfermos quisiste asumir nuestra condición humana, mira con piedad a : Paula Rodriguez, Santa Sanchez , Rubén Herrera, Lucy M., Geraldine N. , Carmen Martínez, Jose Rivera, Maria Cruz, Evelia Ramírez, Alfonso Valencia, Doris Yolanda, , Juana Cruz, Altagracia Mena, Natividad Falcon, Ana Ocasio, Maria Rivera, Alicia Morales, Jose Morales, Maria Tavares, Jorge Figueroa, familia Perez-Garcia. _______, que están enfermos y necesita ser curados en el cuerpo y en el espíritu. Reconfórtalo con tu poder para que levante su ánimo y pueda superar todos sus males; y, ya que has querido asociarlo a tu Pasión redentora, haz que confíen en la eficacia del dolor para la salvación del mundo. Tú que vives y reinas por los siglos de los siglos. Amén. Padre Nuestro… Dios te salve Maria…Gloria…

Volunteers for Jesus Volunteers needed for maintaining and beautifying our

lawns, parking lots, and surrounding areas. We meet on Saturday at 8 AM in front of the garage next to the rectory.

Voluntarios para Jesús

Necesitamos voluntarios para ayudar a mantener limpio los alrededores de la iglesia y el jardín. Nos reunimos los

Sábados 8AM frente al garaje al lado de la rectoría.

Reflexion Lucas 12, 49-53

El evangelio de esta semana no es fácil de inter-pretar. Muchos verán que el evangelista nos presenta a un Jesús, belicoso, separatista, pero en realidad Jesús lo que hace es dar un zamarreo a nuestro corazón adormilado, despertarnos del letargo en el que nos hemos instalados, ritos y cumplimientos, en lugar de practicar su máxima: “amar al prójimo”.Hoy más que nunca se nos llama a alzar nuestra voz contra las injusticias so-ciales, pero seguimos como si tal cosa, eso sí, mientras no nos toquen a nosotros, entonces es-tallamos y queremos que todos nos apoyen y se pongan en nuestros zapatos. Tenemos que dejar de mirar nuestro ombligo, de vivir ritos y cumpli-mientos y empezar a encender el fuego del amor, a trabajar por un mundo más igualitario porque el sistema actual no nos lleva a buen puer-to, cada vez la sociedad está más pérdida y hun-dida.

Es momento de reflexionar, ahondar en la Palabra de Dios y empezar a trabajar por toda la humani-dad, ¡qué mejor ejemplo de amor, justicia y cari-dad! No dejemos para mañana el trabajar por el Reino de Dios, hagámoslo hoy. Fuente: /eltallerdelaserenidad.wordpress.com

Lửa Trên Mặt Đất L.m. Nguyễn Cao Siêu, S.J. Lạy Chúa Giêsu, Xin cho chúng con ngọn lửa trong Trái Tim Chúa, ngọn lửa của tình yêu Cha và nhân loại. Xin làm tim con ấm lại mỗi ngày, nhờ được nghe Chúa nói như hai môn đệ về Emmau, và được Chúa nuôi bằng bánh ban sự sống. Xin soi sáng chúng con bằng ngọn lửa rực rỡ mỗi khi chúng con cầu nguyện hay quyết định. Xin thanh luyện chúng con bằng ngọn lửa hồng của những thất bại đắng cay trên đường đời. Ước gì chúng con luôn có lửa nhiệt thành để hết lòng phụng sự Nước Chúa, lửa tình yêu để vượt qua những hận thù đố kỵ. Amen
