24th Sunday in Ordinary Time - September 11, 2011Forgive your neighbor's injustice;

then when you pray, your own sins will be forgiven. -- Sirach 28:2First Reading -- Remember the commandments and hate not your neighbor (Sirach 27:30 -- 28:9).Psalm 103 -- The Lord is kind and merciful, slow to anger, and rich in compassion.Second Reading -- Whether we live, or whether we die, we do so for the Lord (Romans 14:7-9).Gospel -- Forgive one another from your heart (Matthew 18:21-35).

FORGIVENESSNearly ten years before, a son and father had parted ways when the business they shared went

bankrupt. The son blamed the father. They did not speak to each other again. Then the father be-came seriously ill. The mother called the son and told him he had better come soon. The sonwalked sheepishly into the hospital room. The father motioned his son to him and whispered: "Didyou ever think you could do anything that would keep me from loving you?"

Resentment and anger are foul things, the first reading from Sirach tells us. Remember the lastthings. Stop hating. Live by the commandments. As St. Paul writes to the Romans, we are to live

for the Lord and die for the Lord. For us Americans on the tenth anniversary ofSeptember 11,2001, forgiveness still does not come easily. Yet Jesus' parable in today's Gospel reminds us ofGod's compassion. The immense sin of humanity has been forgiven and stricken from the record.We are to forgive others in the same way.

25th Sunday in Ordinary Time, September 18How different are the Lords ways from our own (Is.

55:6-9)! Gracious and good to all (Psalm 145), the Lordis equally generous in compassion and love to those whoare quick to respond to his invitation, as well as to thosewho are slow to hear his call (Matthew 20:1-16a).

SECOND COLLECTIONTodays second collection is for theOngoing Faith Formation Fund.

STOP AND THINKSome of us come to Mass and try notto get involved. We hang back formany reasons: fear we will be pres-sured into long-term commitments,or we will be asked to do what wehave no aptitude for. Reluctant vol-

unteers may be generousin other ways, through theweekly collection or dona-tions to good causes. Areyou hesitant to volunteer?What are your God-givenabilities? Are you a leader, a teamplayer, or a behind-the-scenesworker? Are you sick, homebound, ora frequent traveler? You can praymore. There is something only youcan do for your parish! Are you aministry leader? Do you communi-cate to parishioners the value of

what you do? Are you welcoming andappreciative to new people? If youare a volunteer, do you share yourenthusiasm with other parishionersand invite them to join you? Our par-ish survives if only a few are commit-ted, but it thrives if everyone is in-cluded.

LIVING STEWARDSHIP NOWHave you committed your abilities,your time, and your financial re-sources to your parish for God andthe Church? Is your involvement a

true reflection of your gratitude toGod? Do you need to give more, orgive differently?

The Holy Fathers September 2011 IntentionsGeneral Intention: For all teachers, that they may convey love in truth andeducate in authentic moral and spiritual values.Missionary Intention: That the Christian communities spread throughoutthe Asian continent may proclaim the Gospel with fervor, bearing witness tobeauty with the joy of the faith.

PRAYER FOR VOCATIONSLord Jesus Christ, shep-herd of souls, who calledthe apostles to be fishersof men, raise up newapostles in your church.Teach them that to serveyou is to reign, to possess you is topossess all things. Kindle in theyoung hearts of our sons and daugh-

ters the fire of zeal of souls. Makethem eager to spread your kingdomupon earth. Keep our present reli-gious and seminarians healthy, bothphysically and spiritually. Grant themcourage to follow you, who are theWay, the Truth and the Life, who livesand reigns forever and ever. Amen.

PRAYER FOR A NEW BISHOPAlmighty God, sendyour Holy Spirit toguide those who willadvise the Holy Fatherin the selection of thenext Bishop of theDiocese of Fresno.May he have the zeal ofSaint Paul, the priestly

gifts of Saint John Vianney, the wis-dom of a loving father and brother,and most of all, the heart of yourSon, Jesus. We ask that the BlessedVirgin Mary intercede for us, andSaint Therese, our patroness, join usin this prayer, which we makethrough Christ, our Lord. Amen.

MISSIONSTATEMENTAs faithful disciples of Christ, we,the Catholic Community of St. Mary& St. Katherine, proclaim our three-fold mission: to worship God, toshare our faith, and to serve thosewho are in need.

ABOUTCATECHETICALSUNDAYThe ministry ofthe Word is a fun-damental elementof evangelization

through all itsstages, because it involves the proc-lamation of Jesus Christ, the eternalWord of God.

The word of God nourishes bothevangelizers and those who are be-ing evangelized so that each onemay continue to grow in his or herChristian life (National Directory forCatechesis [NDC] [Washington, DC:United States Conference of CatholicBishops, 2005], no. 17).

ThemeThis year, the Church will celebrateCatechetical Sunday on September18, 2011, and will focus on thetheme Do This in Memory of Me.Those whom the community hasdesignated to serve as catechists willbe called forth to be commissionedfor their ministry. Catechetical Sun-day is a wonderful opportunity toreflect on the role that each person

plays, by virtue of Baptism, in hand-ing on the faith and being a witnessto the Gospel. Catechetical Sunday isan opportunity for all to rededicatethemselves to this mission as a com-munity of faith.

24 Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario11 de septiembre del 2011

Primera lectura -- No podemos fomentar el rencor y esperar que senos perdonen nuestros pecados (Sircide 27:30 -- 28:7).Salmo -- El Seor es bondadoso y misericordioso, lento a la ira y ricoen compasin (Salmo 103(102)).Segunda lectura -- Ya sea que vivamos o muramos, lo hacemos enCristo (Romanos 14:7-9).Evangelio -- Jess dice que debemos perdonar no slo siete vecessino setenta veces siete veces(Mateo 18:21-35).

PERDNUnos diez aos antes, un padre e hijo se distanciaron cuando el

negocio en el que eran socios se fue a bancarrota. El hijo culp alpadre. No se hablaron ms. Entonces el padre se puso gravementeenfermo. La madre llam al hijo y le dijo que viniera a verlo pronto.El hijo entr con vergenza a su habitacin en el hospital. El padrehizo un gesto para que se acercara y susurr: "Acaso pensaste quepodras hacer algo que me hiciera dejar de amarte?".

El rencor y la clera son abominables, nos dice la primera lecturade Sircide. Piensa en tu fin. Deja de odiar. Vive conforme a los man-damientos. Como escribe san Pablo en Romanos, para el Seor vivi-mos y para el Seor morimos. En el dcimo aniversario del 11 deseptiembre de 2001, para nosotros en Estados Unidos todava nonos es fcil perdonar. Sin embargo, la parbola de Jess en el Evan-gelio de hoy nos recuerda la compasinde Dios. El inmenso pecado de la huma-nidad ha sido perdonado y borrado dellibro. Tenemos que perdonar a otros deigual manera.

PREGUNTAS PARA LA SEMANA:Qu puedo hacer esta semana para demostrar como mi fe influenciami vida?Qu puedo hacer esta semana para demostrar que creo en Jess?

DETENTE Y CONSIDERAAlgunos de nosotros venimos a Misa, pero tratamos de no involu-

crarnos en ms nada. Nuestra renuencia se debe a varias razones:miedo de que nos presionen para hacer compromisos a largo plazo oque se nos pida hacer algo para lo cual no tenemos aptitudes. Puedeque estas personas renuentes a ofrecer sus servicios sean generosasde otras maneras, como en la colecta semanal o haciendo donativospara causas justas. Vacilas t en ofrecer tus servicios voluntarios?Cules son las habilidades que Dios te ha dado? Tienes madera delder, te gusta trabajar en equipo o prefieres hacerlo desde la reta-guardia? Te encuentras enfermo, confinado a tu hogar o viajas confrecuencia? Eso te da la oportunidad de rezar ms. Hay algo en tuparroquia que slo t puedes hacer! Eres lder de algn ministerio?Le comunicas bien a los parroquianos el valor que tiene lo quehaces? Eres una persona acogedora para con los recin llegados? Siofreces tus servicios voluntarios, compartes tu entusiasmo con otrosparroquianos y les invitas a que ellos hagan lo mismo? Nuestra parro-quia puede sobrevivir con unas pocas personas comprometidas, peroslo puede prosperar si todos colaboran.

LA CO-RESPONSABILIDAD VIVIDA AHORATe has comprometido a ofrecer tus habilidades, tu tiempo y tus re-cursos econmicos a tu parroquia, por Dios y por la Iglesia? Reflejatu compromiso una verdadera gratitud a Dios? Necesitas dar ms ode una manera diferente?

FIESTA DE LA FELa paz sea contigo

Mientras que el Padrenuestro esuna oracin que nos dispone a la pazcon Dios y con los dems, es unaoracin que tambin nos lleva en smisma a ofrecer el perdn y a recibir

el perdn. El darnos la paz es unaforma clara de comunin, de cumplirel mandato de Cristo. El gesto exte-rior de la paz es una expresin delperdn mutuo y de la necesidad derenovar nuestras relaciones huma-nas. Este espritu de caridad y justi-cia va acompaado de un saludo(antes era con un beso) luego deque la Iglesia ha implorado la "paz yla unidad para s misma y para todala Iglesia" (IGMR, 82). Esta mismaexpresin de paz y perdn es el re-quisito mnimo de quien quiere pre-

sentarse ante Dios para compartir subanquete o bien, para pedir elperdn para s mismo. Este rito yeste gesto encierran en s mismos laradicalidad del cristianismo, de amarcomo Jess am, plenamente y parasiempre. Por ello nos deseamos lapaz de verdad, mirndonos a losojos y deseando para nuestro prji-mo que la paz habite en sus corazo-nes.

NUESTRA MISINComo discpulos de Cristo, nosotros,los feligreses de la Comunidad Catli-ca de Santa Mara y de Santa Kateri-na, proclamamos nuestra misin detres-doblez: adorar a Dios, compartirnuestra fe, y servir a los que son ne-cesitados.
