First Reading: 2 Maccabees 7:1-2, 9-14 Second Reading: 2 Thessalonians 2:16-3:5 Gospel: Luke 20:27-38
We have beautiful readings today that talk about one of the core elements of our faith: the resurrection of the dead. Christians have as many questions to ask about life after death as anyone else. Today’s mass forces us to reflect on the meaning of life and the purpose of death.
Belief in the resurrection is not a given. Did Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and their descendants believe in the resurrection? The first books of the Bible show clearly that in ancient times, the Israelites did not believe in another life. If we had asked them: “Is there a resurrection from the dead?” they would have replied: “We don’t know. We are interested in the life in this world, a life that we want to be full of joy and satisfaction.” Even the Jehovah’s Witnesses deny this and believe that life ends with the tomb.
About 170 years before Christ, the Israelites began to speak of an “awakening” of those who sleep in the Land of Dust (Daniel 12:2) and the first reading from the book of Maccabees takes place at this time.
There was once a very wicked king called Antiochus, who wanted to force all Jews to abandon their faith in Yahweh and the religious practices of the Jews’ ancestors. To achieve this goal, he used all possible means including violence: persecution, torture, heavy punishments. One day, he ordered a mother and her seven children to eat pork. The first reading tells us what the first four children replied to the king based on their courageous profession of faith in the resurrection where God will grant them another life. This belief in the resurrection is different from ours because they only believed that God will grant them only a life similar to the one being taken away from them. Some Jewish rabbis were even crude in their description and said: in this world, as we all know, the birth of a child is the greatest joy a woman can experience; thus in the next world, women will give birth to a child – every day!
But there is another group of Jewish religious intellectuals who denied that there is a resurrection – they were the Sadducees. This was the group who challenged Jesus in today’s gospel reading. Making use of scriptures, they told Jesus that Moses states that if a man who has no children dies, the man’s brother must marry the widow and the children born from this new marriage are considered children of the dead man (Deut 25:5). Starting from this law, the Sadducees made up an interesting story of a woman (and she must have been a strong and healthy woman) who successively wore out seven husbands who were brothers. She, too, finally died. So the question for Jesus: “If there is a resurrection, to which man will she be assigned in the life to come?”
What did Jesus say? He said: “There will be no marriages in the next life.” In fact, this is one of the theological reasons for the Church having celibate priests and nuns.
How will life with God be? We do not know but the second part of the reply of Jesus is a clear statement of the truth of the resurrection: That “the God of Abraham, the God of Jacob is not the God of the dead but of the living, for to him, all are alive.”
The Jews always go back to their ancestors: Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses. That means, they are still living with their God or else the Jews would have been calling upon a God of the dead. For how can one imagine that God creates men and women, makes a covenant with them, promises them many things, defends them from their enemies and then suddenly leaves them?
This truth of God as God of the living is revealed in Jesus who died and rose again. If we believe in the resurrection, this faith modifies our whole way of looking at human existence. The certainty of being united with Christ, to pass from death to life, urges us to live life to the full, fullness of life here on earth with Christ.
Death and resurrection are not future events. They are also present and day-to-day experiences. How many are the things taking place in our lives: we are born, we grow, we fall in love, we form a family and educate our children; we work and undertake responsibilities, we bear joys and sorrows, we dream and hope. Yet, in our experience, these efforts of ours may disappear into nothingness: quarrels, misunderstandings, the breaking up of love bonds among spouses, sometimes, affection towards children diminish and marriage and love are threatened.
All the while, the Lord was walking with us but in a stranger’s face. We did not recognize him because we only recognized ourselves and our sorrows. Ego-centered, need-centered because we were for self-gratification and never realized that he walked this earth because of you and me, that we survived a stormy marriage because he was there lifting us up and encouraging each one not to give up.
Now, we have come to celebrate his presence in the breaking of the bread and share the cup of joy that Jesus offered us, once in Jerusalem, now, in this church. After this Holy Mass, let us go back to our daily routines with the risen Lord who continually invites us not just to contemplate his wounds but to share his new life.

Cast into the Deep Fr. Rolly Celebrates 30 Years in the Priesthood
Patricia Livingston
“My dreams are just a shadow of God’s dreams for me.” This motto has infused the ministry of Father Rolly Astudillo, our Pastor here at Our Lady of Lourdes Parish. Since 2012 Father Rolly has served the parish and made it his home….far away from his family home in Kiangan, Ifugao in the Philippines where he was born on March 10, 1964.
As a boy growing up in the Cordilleras, on muddy dirt roads, wearing only flip flops, he carried 25 lbs. of rice on his shoulder and walked to where his parents lived. The family home was close to nature -- the verdant green mountains of the Cordilleras, the lush rice fields, the crowing of roosters, and no electricity. He was raised in a spiritual home, where it was mandatory for all to be home at 6 pm, to pray and to eat together. He got to see his parents on weekends, as his mother taught elementary grades in public schools in the barrios.
When he was barely 9 years old, Fr. Rolly told his father he wanted to become a priest. His father challenged him to prove himself by being in the top 5 of his elementary class. He became one of the top 3 and graduated from St. Joseph’s Elementary School in Kiangan. Again his father challenged him to finish high school before entering the seminary. In 1981 he entered Immaculate Conception Seminary and was ordained at his home parish of St. Joseph on November 8, 1989.
He began his priestly ministry in the Philippines and remained there for 16 and a half years. His first assignment was to minister to the diocesan youth of the Mountain Province. He became fluent in six languages: English, Tagalog, Kankanaey (Igorot native language, Northern Benguet), Ilocano, Ifugao, and Ibaloy (Igorot native language, Southern Benguet).
He helped in the formation of 20,000+ youths, working with different parishes and high schools through education, spiritual retreats, and ongoing seminars. He calls it “The Golden age of teeming youth, thousands and thousands of them, who were excited, and who were animated by the spirit of the Second Plenary Council of the Philippines.”
In the evenings, he went to St. Louis University College of Law to study, but his bishop pre-empted his studies and assigned him as the pastor of Immaculate Conception in Sablan, Benguet. He ministered to 2,000 families and crossed mountains 2 or 3 times per month. He would start walking at 4 pm to get to their homes at night.
On his trips, he had to make stops at checkpoints of the New People’s Army and the Philippine Army. One time, his journey got delayed because a car was held at gun point and roads had to be cleared. But he was fearless. “As long as I am serving God, I feel safe,” he said.
He was assigned as Pastor of several other parishes and served as the editor of the Baguio Diocesan Newsletter and a member of the Diocesan Episcopal Commission on Media before coming to the United States, to the Archdiocese of Los
Angeles in 2005. He credits his uncle, Father Tony Astudillo for helping his transition from Baguio to Los Angeles. He served first with him at Holy Innocents Parish, then at San Lorenzo Ruiz in Walnut. From 2005 to 2009 he served as pastoral associate at Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal Parish in Montebello. He then served as Associate Pastor at St. Mary’s Church in Palmdale. In 2012 he was named Parish Administrator of Our Lady of Lourdes, Tujunga, and was installed as Pastor on August 29, 2015.
Father Rolly has had significant accomplishments at Our Lady of Lourdes. He sums up his ministry so far, saying that he has “fostered evangelization with all ministries involved while maintaining and upgrading facilities.” Indeed, Father has brought about a renewal of support for the structure of the parish ministries and programs by building a strong
infrastructure of involvement and commitment of lay leadership through the Commission and other avenues of support.
Under Fr. Rolly’s leadership (and often hands-on efforts), we concluded a highly successful Called to Renew Capital Campaign; upgraded the Parish Hall, the Auditorium, and the Parish Office; upgraded the Church interior; renovated the Our Lady of Lourdes Grotto; built the Our Lady of Guadalupe Shrine; and improved the HVAC systems of the Church and school. Fr. Rolly has been unstinting in his support of Our Lady of Lourdes School, the staff and students, so that the school can stand strong and stay true to its mission and Catholic Identity. One of the school projects that he
has wholeheartedly supported is the Early Childhood Education Plan. As we journey to the Centennial of Our Lady of Lourdes, Fr. Rolly has organized leadership for the parish Celebration in October 2020. Never one to rest on his laurels, Fr. Rolly proactively develops plans for the continual improvement of our parish plant and the nourishment of our parish family.
Father Rolly once commented, “I’m glad I was meant to stay here at Our Lady of Lourdes. I look forward to serving more in whatever capacity God chooses. I grew up as an Ifugao, working closely with woodcarvers, who can look at a tree and know what it will become, who taught me that you become what you are committed into doing. As long as you are committed to the ministry, it is your whole body and soul already.”
Today, at the 12:30 Mass, our parish community will celebrate Father Rolly’s 30th Anniversary of Ordination as well as the 4th anniversary of his installation as pastor. A reception will follow in the Rectory. All are invited to join in the celebration for our Pastor, Father Roland Astudillo.
God bless you, Father Rolly, and grant you strength and peace in your ministry at Our Lady of Lourdes! As we conclude National Vocations Awareness Week, we celebrate, honor, and thank you for everything you have done for us.
Apostolic Blessing for Fr. Rolly
November 10, 2019 Our Lady of Lourdes 3
The Book of Job is among the most popular books of the Old Testament. Classroom instructors find it appealing because of its literary value and philo-sophic content. College professors, largely skeptical of religion and tending toward secularism, enjoy the paradoxical nature of the book. It presents God, Who loves Job as one of the prime exemplars of a good person, willing to punish him with the loss of his family, fortune, and good name.
The book begins describing Job as “a blameless and upright man . . . who feared God and avoided evil.” God convokes an assembly of angels, and the angel assigned to report on earthly matters proposes that they put Job to the test. This angel, Satan (not to be confused with the hellish demon,) claims that Job is good only because God has granted him lavish grac-es. “Now put forth your hand and touch anything that he has, and surely,” Satan claims, “he will blas-pheme you to your face.”
Job is wealthy, politically powerful, and socially es-teemed. In God’s name, Satan deprives him of his wealth, his family, and finally, his health. People turn against Job and abhor him as a wretched sinner; his friends hold him off as though he were a leper, and the state anathematizes him. Job, nevertheless, refuses to turn away from God.
Three “friends”, who act more as accusers than friends, goad Job to confess his guilt and come to peace with God. Job refuses to acknowledge any such guilt, laments his misfortunes, and cries to heaven for a chance to present his case for judgment before God. The “friends” reject Job’s innocence. God punishes those who are evil, they say, and the wretched are only experiencing the punishment of God.
I once took a graduate seminar on the Bible, and when we got to The Book of Job nobody could move the needle further than the alternatives of an unjust God or no loving God at all. What we all missed was the role of Job in the transition between two cul-tural views. Perhaps an analogy would help.
Bishop Fulton J. Sheen once explained the need for the virgin birth of Mary with the analogy of the Pan-ama Canal. The canal links two oceans. A ship moves from lock to lock as it transitions from the Atlantic side of the Americas to the Pacific side. Bishop Sheen was trying to get us to think of Mary as the transitional link between wholly human birth
and the extraordinary birth of our savior, Jesus Christ.
The writer of the Book of Job was working in a tran-sitioning culture. One of the strong messages given in the Old Testament is that God continued to punish the Jews for apostacy, and continued to relent when they begged His forgiveness. From the numerous repetitions of this cycle, the idea arose that our mis-fortunes were God’s punishment for our apostacy. A long life, however, leads one to believe that suffer-ing is not always deserved. Floods and fires hit the good as well as the bad. An invading army will slaughter the innocent as well as the guilty. Acci-dent or disease will kill the purest child as well as the most tainted adult.
It took time for the Jewish culture to move from the idea that tragedy was always deserved to the ac-ceptance that, sometimes, it was not. No such cul-tural movement is immediate. Like a ship moving through the locks from the stormy Atlantic to the calm Pacific, Jewish society had to move in steps from a culture of guilt to a culture of acceptance. The Book of Job was one of these steps.
Job’s “friends” continue to ignore his protestations that he did no evil worthy of the punishments re-ceived. They firmly believe that suffering is the in-delible sign of guilt. We who have read the intro-duction know that God’s intentions were different. In the end, God abuses Job for thinking that he can justify himself before the Almighty, but he also re-bukes his “friends” for condemning Job.
God is almighty and so far superior to mankind that no human can justify himself before God. His ways are unknowable within our limited intelligence. In the end, Job accepts this and regains God’s graces. The writer does well in producing a monologue in which God describes his grandeur, though we are left believing that even this underplays the truth. Nevertheless, The Book of Job gives us the stepping-stone on which to move away from the consuming idea that all our tragedies are the result of our sins and on to the belief that, although God is in control, His ways are inscrutable.

Volunteers from different parishes are involve in preparing the inmates for sacraments, religious education, and com-munion services. Copies of bibles are given to prisoners to help them in their effort to reform their lives.
