Llegué a Roma el lunes 26 de agosto. Fue un día hermoso, pero des-pués de volar toda la noche estaba un poco cansado del largo viaje. La casa sabática se llama Casa O'Toole. Se encuentra en los terrenos del coligió North American en Roma y está a muy poca lejos de la Ba-sílica de San Pedro. Hay 21 sacerdotes inscritos en el programa sabá-tico. El primer gran evento de la semana tuvo lugar el miércoles por la ma-ñana. Caminamos a la Basílica de San Pedro para la celebración de la Misa y después de la misa asistimos a la audiencia papal y tuvimos la

oportunidad de ver y escuchar al Santo Padre, Papa Francisco. Desafortunadamente no tuvimos la opor-tunidad de conocerlo. Esta semana y la próxima asistiremos a una serie de clases sobre la espiritualidad de San Benito y San Francisco de Asís. Este sábado visitaremos uno de los monasterios benedictinos más antiguos que aún existen en la localidad de Subiaco. El horario no es muy exigente, así que nos queda la oportunidad de orar, leer y visitar... He adjuntado una foto de la Basílica de San Pedro que tomé desde el balcón de mi habitación aquí. Tra-taré de mantener los informados semanalmente de mi tiempo aquí en Roma. Fr. West

NEXT SUNDAY’S READINGS

First Reading — You sent your holy spirit from on high and thus were the paths of those on earth made straight (Wisdom 9:13-18b).

Psalm — In every age, O Lord, you have been our refuge (Psalm 90).

Second Reading — Paul asks Philemon to accept back his slave Onesimus as a brother (Philemon 9-10, 12-17).

Gospel — Which of you wishing to construct a tower does not first sit down and calculate the cost to see if there is enough for its comple on? (Luke 14:25-33).

Thursdays at 7:00 PM in the rectory basement

We invite all our teenagers to join our Youth Group on Thursday evenings at 7:00 PM in the rectory basement.

We also want to welcome our new Youth Minister, Iris Flores. We will introduce Ms. Flores to the parish at the Masses next Sun-day.

WE ARE ALL GOD’S DELIGHT is a ministry that welcomes our LGBT brothers and sisters and their family and friends for discussion and reflection. Meetings are held on the second Tuesday of each month, 7:00- 9:00PM, at the Bishop Molloy Retreat House, located at 86-45 Edgerton Blvd., Jamaica. For additional information, please call 718-739-1229 or visit the website www.bishopmolloy.org.

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION The readings today center on mindfulness, awareness of where we stand in God’s plan. The mountain of Sinai carries a message of the majesty and distance of God, while Jesus’ presence as host of the banquet speaks of in macy and mystery. September’s shadow calls us all to mindfulness as we prepare to return to life outside of summer. The Chris an life holds these two places of knowledge of God in careful balance. Even in the ac-counts of the Passion we see the table of the upper room in balance with the Mount of Olives.

Altar means “high place,” yet it is also a table. The former liturgy of the La n Rite began with the priest bow-ing at the foot of the altar’s three steps, chan ng Introibo ad altare Dei, or “I will go to the altar of God,” followed by the altar servers’ response, “The God who gives joy to my youth.” Many parishioners can recall and recite this scene by heart. As with so many things in liturgy, there are layers of meaning in our worship. The altar table evokes memories of the high places once reserved for encounter with the holy, and the in macy of the table where hospitality draws us to share food and drink.

News From Our Pastor

I arrived in Rome on Monday, August 26th. It was a beau ful day but a er flying all night I was a bit red from the long journey. The sabba cal house is named Casa O’Toole. It is on the grounds of the North American College in Rome and it is a very short walk to St. Peter’s Basilica. There are 21 priests enrolled in the sabba cal program.

The first major event of the week took place on Wednesday morning. We walked over to St. Peter’s Basilica for the celebra on of the Mass and a er Mass we a ended the papal audience and had the opportunity to see and

listen to the Holy Father, Pope Francis. Unfortunately we did not get an opportunity to meet him.

This week and next week we will a end a number of classes on the spirituality of St. Benedict and St. Francis of Assis-si. This Saturday we will visit one of the oldest Benedic ne monasteries s ll in existence in the town of Subiaco. The schedule is not very demanding so we are le with an opportunity to pray, read and visit the churches and sites of Rome and the surrounding area.

I have a ached a photo of St. Peter’s Basilica which I took from the balcony of my room here. I will try to keep you informed on a weekly basis of my me here in Rome.
