Saint Wenceslaus Saint of the Day for September 28 (c. 907 – 929) If saints have been falsely charac-terized as “other worldly,” the life of Wenceslaus stands as an example to the contrary: He stood for Chris-tian values in the midst of the politi-cal intrigues which characterized 10th-century Bohemia. Wenceslaus was born in 907 near Prague, son of the Duke of Bohe-mia. His saintly grandmother, Lud-milla, raised him and sought to pro-mote him as ruler of Bohemia in place of his mother, who favored the anti-Christian factions. Ludmilla was eventually murdered, but rival Christian forces enabled Wenceslaus to assume leadership of the government. His rule was marked by efforts toward unification within Bohemia, support of the Church, and peace-making negoti-ations with Germany, a policy which caused him trouble with the anti-Christian opposition. His brother Boleslav joined in the plotting, and in September of 929 invited Wenceslaus to Alt Bunglou for the celebration of the feast of Saints Cosmas and Damian. On the way to Mass, Boleslav attacked his brother, and in the struggle, Wences-laus was killed by supporters of Boleslav. Although his death resulted primarily from political upheaval, Wenceslaus was hailed as a martyr for the faith, and his tomb became a pilgrimage shrine. He is hailed as the patron of the Bohemian people and of the former Czechoslovakia. Reflection: “Good King Wenceslaus” was able to incarnate his Christianity in a world filled with political un-rest. While we are often victims of violence of a different sort, we can easily identify with his struggle to bring harmo-ny to society. The call to become involved in social change and in political activity is addressed to Christians; the val-ues of the gospel are sorely needed today. Saint Wenceslaus is the Patron Saint of: Bohemia www.franciscanmedia.org

Breaking Bread Homeless Ministries News From The Streets…
“Bless Those Who Curse You” Luke 6:28 By Mary Martha Primerano When we hit the streets we come with the (soul) message that God loves you! He would do anything for you! Think and ponder this for a moment. John 3:16 says “For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believes in him would not die but have eternal life.” For God so loved the world that he gave His only Son! – Not 1 of his son’s, but his only Son. How do we, Breaking Bread Homeless Ministries communicate this to a dying world? By stooping down to the forgotten, alone, and yes even the ornery. To remind them that it’s going to be al-right. God is not mad at you, but madly in love with you! Like Diane who sleeps outside a downtown bookstore, (the owner’s of the store love her, and allow her to stay.) One Saturday the Team felt led to minister forgiveness to Diane, and her three friends between the ages of 50 and 70. We spoke to them about how important it is for us to forgive, and not only that, but bless those who curse you according to Luke 6:28. Well that’s when things began to get interesting! Diane shared how she does believe in eve-rything we said, but there is this 1 woman who she finds hard to forgive because this woman falsely accused her of something that would eventually land Diane in jail for a long time. “I lost all of those years from my life because of this woman’s false accusation of me! Now I just can’t forgive her for that!” And you know what? Diane is right! We can’t in our own ability that is why the Holy Spirit was sent to help us. He is our Helper. To help us do difficult things like forgive someone. That’s exactly what we did when we asked the Holy Spirit to help Diane forgive, and not only that, but to bless her accuser who was now dying of AIDS. When she was done praying she thanked us for walking her through this, and told the others that we are her church, teaching her to do the right thing. Walt always reminds those we min-ister to that it’s never good to harbor bitterness in our heart because bitterness is like you drinking poison and expect-ing the other person to die.

Guardian Angel Prayer Angel of God my guardian dear, to whom God’s love commits me here,
ever this day be at my side, to light and guard, to rule and guide. Amen.

¿T ENED ENTRE VOSOTROS LOS SENTIMIENTOS
PROPIOS DE CRISTO JESÚS
San Mateo 21,28-32. ¡No al Fatalismo!.- La palabra que no cabe, que nunca cabe en nuestra fe cristiana es "fatalismo." Eso de que hay un destino marcado puede servir para algunas obras literarias o para otras religiones. Nosotros, por el contrario, creemos que el futuro es un libro que no está escrito; un libro en el que tenemos el derecho de escribir nuestras propias páginas. Las lecturas de hoy van en esa línea. Nos invitan, casi digo, nos obli-gan a reconocer que sí es posible cambiar el rumbo. El ser humano no está hecho sino que se va haciendo a sí mismo. Cada decisión que tomas te convierte de algún modo en un ser distinto. Al escoger una u otra opción frente a ti estás escogiendo también un modo u otro de
ser. Hay un camino: recapacitar.- Por supuesto, el mensaje de la Escr itura no es sólo que podemos cambiar sino que podemos mejorar. Nuestra religión es esencialmente un mensaje positivo: la conversión es posible; hoy puedes recapaci-tar; el resto de tu vida no existe todavía: tú lo llamarás a la existencia. Cambia tu mente, cambia tu corazón y cambiarán también tu vida y tus resultados. En la primera lectura este mensaje aparece como una invitación vigorosa y abierta a todos: "Si el malvado recapacita y se aparta de los delitos cometidos, ciertamente vivirá y no morirá." El malvado es aquel que ha hecho muchos males, aún más: es aquel a quien consideramos malo en sí mismo. Pero esa naturaleza per-versa no tiene la última palabra. El mensaje es simple y poderoso: No estás atado a tu pasado malo. Ni siquiera las pala-bras que tal vez tú mismo hayas dicho tienen por qué atarte. El segundo hijo de la parábola de Cristo el día de hoy fue uno que había dicho en voz alta: "¡No quiero!" Pero una palabra sabia pero puede deshacer lo que hizo una palabra ne-cia. Con el poder de Cristo.- Por supuesto, se requiere más que buenos propósitos. Esto lo sabemos todos los que he-mos experimentado cuán débiles somos y con cuánta facilidad quebrantamos nuestras buenas resoluciones. Cristo nos anuncia y nos concede esa fuerza para no sólo reconocer lo que estuvo mal sino para no sentir ya el mismo deseo de re-petirlo. La acción de Cristo en nosotros nos cambia el corazón, enseña el Evangelio. Por eso Pablo, en la segunda lectura de hoy nos exhorta con estas palabras: "Tengan los mismos sentimientos que tuvo Cristo Jesús." Es muy difícil obrar como Cristo si uno no es Cristo. Hay que ser uno con él para actuar y vivir como él. Y somos uno con él primero por la fe, creyendo en su mensaje, y luego por el amor, adhiriéndonos a su enseñanza, a su Iglesia y a su Espíritu Santo.
