Sacred Heart Catholic Church Twentieth Sunday in Ordinary Time–August 20, 2017
Reflection from the Pastor:
When I was a freshman in high school, one of my teachers was named Sister
Joseph Mary. In her religion class, she was explaining the various postures
we adopt in prayer, in particular at Holy Mass. She said something that
sparked my attention: “When the priest talks to God, he turns to God. When
he talks to us, he turns to us.” Having attended Catholic schools my entire
life, I knew that it made sense, but I couldn’t recall ever having seen the
priest not face us. So the next time I went to Mass, I watched intently and
was disappointed that the priest never once didn’t face us. I figured that I had
missed something, and I put it out of my head. Of course, those of you who
are older now know what I was missing: nowadays, the priest almost always
says Mass facing the people. But more and more, parishes around the
country are rediscovering the appropriateness and the beauty of the original
way of celebrating Mass: the priest and the people face in the same direction.
The priest didn’t have his back to us. No, he was praying with and for the
people. Although most parishes continue to celebrate the Mass with the
priest facing the people, it’s a good reminder for all of us that our prayer is
always to God, and not to each other.

Meditación del Párroco: Cuando yo era estudiante de primer año en la escuela secundaria, una de mis maestras fue nombrada Hermana José María.
En su clase de religión explicaba las diversas posturas que adoptamos en la oración, en particular en la Santa Misa. Ella dijo
algo que me llamó la atención: "Cuando el sacerdote habla con Dios, se vuelve a Dios. Cuando él nos habla a nosotros, se
vuelve hacia nosotros.” Habiendo asistido a las escuelas católicas toda mi vida, sabía que ella tenía razón, pero no podía
recordar haber visto nunca al sacerdote no enfrentarnos. Así que la próxima vez que fui a misa, le miré atentamente al
sacerdote y me decepcioné que el sacerdote nunca una vez no nos enfrentamos. Supuse que me había perdido algo, y lo
saqué de mi cabeza. Por supuesto, aquellos de ustedes que son mayores ahora saben lo que me faltaba: hoy en día, el
sacerdote casi siempre celebra la Santa Misa orientado al pueblo. Pero cada vez más, las parroquias de todo el país están
redescubriendo la idoneidad y la belleza de la forma original de celebrar la Santa Misa: el sacerdote y el pueblo se
enfrentan en la misma dirección. El sacerdote no nos dio la espalda. No, estaba rezando con y para el pueblo. Aunque la
mayoría de las parroquias continúan celebrando la Misa con el sacerdote frente al pueblo, es un buen recordatorio para
todos nosotros que nuestra oración es siempre a Dios, y no a los demás.
