Eighth Sunday in Ordinary Time

St. Joseph Catholic Church, 7240 W. 57th St., Summit, Illinois

“Can a blind person guide a blind person?”

Esta semana, tenemos la tercera y última sección del Sermón en la Llanura de San Lucas. En este breve pasaje, San Lucas registra cuatro breves parábolas que nuestro Señor enseño en su Sermón de la Llanura. Escuchamos tres de esas parábolas del Evangelio de Lucas en la Misa de hoy. La primera es la Parábola del Guía Ciego, la segunda es la Parábola de la Paja Y la Viga, y la tercera es la Parábola del Árbol y sus Frutos. La cuarta Parábola, no incluida en la lectura del Leccionario de hoy, es la Parábola de los Cimientos. La primera parábola, enseñada por Jesús en el evangelio de hoy, es la del Guía Ciego. Jesús les dijo a sus discípulos una parábola:" ¿Puede acaso un ciego guiar a otro ciego? ¿No caerán los dos en un hoyo?” En la imagen de abajo, vemos una hermosa pintura que ilustra la parábola de Jesús que se escucha en el Evangelio de

hoy. La pintura es titulada, La parábola del Ciego: Los Ciegos Guiando a Los Ciegos, por Sebastian Vrancx. La ceguera es una condición de oscuridad y falta de color, luz. Sin embargo, esta pintura sobre la parábola de Los Ciegos Guiando a Los Ciegos es muy vibrante y colorida. En esta pintura, vemos a cinco personas ciegas caminando en una fila, cada uno de ellos sostenidos y guiándose por la persona que tiene enfrente. En la esquina inferior derecha, la guía ciega ha caído en una zanja de agua. La segunda persona que esta agarrada de Él, está cayendo tras el guía y está llevándose a la siguiente persona con él. Podemos presumir que el mismo destino le sucederá al tercer ciego, y también a las otras dos personas. Enseñando en este pasaje del evangelio, San Juan Crisóstomo nos enseña: "Es un gran mal el solo hecho de ser ciego, pero encontrarse en tal estado y no tener a nadie que lo guíe, alguien que ocupe el lugar de un guía, es un doble y triple motivo de censura. Es una cosa peligrosa para el ciego no tener un guía, y mucho más incluso que desee ser guiado por otro.” En las Escrituras, la ceguera es muy simbólica. La ceguera es un gran símbolo espiritual del pecado, de una visión espiritual debilitada y dañada. En esta ceguera, no vemos el esplendor de Dios, ni vemos como Dios ve. La fe es lo opuesto a la ceguera. La fe permite que la luz de Dios abra nuestros ojos, oscurecidos por el pecado y la incredulidad. La fe es confiar en Dios para guiarnos. Cada uno de nosotros necesita la luz y la guía de Dios en la vida. De lo contrario, caemos en el pozo de la ignorancia, la incredulidad y el pecado. San Juan Crisóstomo explica que el pecador habitual es como uno que se sumerge en ese pozo de oscuridad y desprecia las correcciones, los sermones, las censuras, la ayuda e incluso a Dios mismo. ¿Estamos ciegos espiritualmente? ¿Están los ojos de nuestra alma oscurecidos por la ignorancia, la incredulidad y el pecado? ¿Cómo podemos guiar a otros en la fe si somos ciegos nosotros mismos? En una encuesta de conocimiento religioso del 2010 de los Estados Unidos, los católicos no tienen una firme comprensión de los principios de su fe. En esta encuesta, a las personas se les hicieron 32 preguntas sobre la fe, los católicos obtuvieron un promedio de 16 respuestas correctas. El 45% de los católicos no sabía que su iglesia enseña que el pan y el vino consagrados en la Sagrada Comunión no son simplemente símbolos, sino que en realidad se convierten en el Cuerpo y la Sangre de Cristo. En otro estudio de 2015, el 86% de los católicos creen en el nacimiento virginal de Jesús, y el 67% de los católicos creen en la verdadera resurrección de los muertos de Jesús. El 54% tiene una devoción a María como la Virgen Madre de Dios. El 41% de los católicos está abierto a tener hijos, y el 33% de los católicos se opone al aborto en todo momento. El 68% de los católicos con hijos menores de 18 años no los ha llevado a alguna educación religiosa. Jesús dice en el Evangelio: ¿puede una persona ciega guiar a una persona ciega? Las palabras de Jesús no son solo ficción imaginaria. Las palabras de Jesús describen la vida real de los católicos hoy y se aplican a nosotros de una manera alarmante. Este miércoles es el miércoles de ceniza, un día de ayuno y abstinencia de carne. Las cenizas solo se distribuirán en la misa. Vea el boletín para los horarios de misas. ¡Que la Virgen María, Madre del Buen Consejo, nos ayude con su cuidado materno y que San José ore por nosotros! Vivat Jesus! ¡Viva Jesús!

Informes del Padre Bob

Dzisiejsze czytanie kończy wątek „Kazania na równinie”, opisanego w Ewangelii według świętego Łukasza. W Kazaniu na równinie znajdują się cztery przypowieści, przytoczone przez Jezusa – trzy z nich są tematem dzisiejszej liturgii. Pierwsza to Przypowieść o dwóch niewidomych, druga: Przypowieść o belce w oku, trzecia zaś: Przypowieść o drzewie i owocach. Czwartą przypowieścią (niewłączoną do dzisiejszego czytania) to Przypowieść o dobrej lub złej budowie. Zacznijmy od Przypowieści o dwóch niewidomych. „Opowiedział im też przypowieść: Czy może niewidomy prowadzić niewidomego? Czy nie wpadną w dół obydwaj?” Widzimy tu piękny

obraz: „Niewidomy prowadzi niewidomego”, pędzla Sebastiana Vrancxa. Jest to wspaniała ilustracja tej przypowieści. Konsekwencją ślepoty jest ciemność, brak światła i jakichkolwiek barw. Ale ten obraz jest żywy i pełen barw! Widzimy tutaj pięć osób chodzących „gęsiego”. Każda z tych osób jest prowadzona przez osobę znajdującą się przed nią. W dolnym prawym rogu widzimy przewodnika grupy, który wpadł do dołu z wodą. Druga osoba wspierająca się na przewodniku wpada w dół za nim i pociąga za sobą osobę trzecią. Możemy mieć pewność, że trzeciego ślepca spotka to samo, co jego dwóch poprzedników. W swoim komentarzu do tego fragmentu, św. Jan Chryzostom stwierdza, że ślepota już sama w sobie jest wielkim złem. Ale sytuacja, w której ślepiec nie ma przewodnika, który go poprowadzi, jest jeszcze gorsza. O wiele gorsza, niż gdyby ślepiec zapragnął samemu być przewodnikiem dla innych. W Piśmie Świętym, ślepota ma głębokie, symboliczne znaczenie. Symbolizuje ona bowiem grzech i znaczne zaburzenie wiary. Owa ślepota uniemożliwia nam ujrzenie Bożej chwały, oraz patrzenie na świat Jego oczami. Lekarstwem na taką ślepotę jest wiara. Dzięki wierze, Boża światłość znów otwiera nam oczy, dotychczas zamknięte przez ciemność i brak wiary. Wiara oznacza zawierzenie siebie Panu we wszelkich codziennych sprawach. Każdy z nas potrzebuje Boga za przewodnika w życiu. Bez Niego wpadamy w dół niewiedzy, zwątpienia i grzechu. Jak wyjaśnia św. Jan Chryzostom nałogowy grzesznik to ktoś, kto wpadł do tego dołu ciemności i gardzi jakimkolwiek wsparciem, kazaniami, napomnieniami – a nawet samym Bogiem. Czy cierpimy na duchową ślepotę? Czy oczy naszej duszy oślepiła niewiedza, zwątpienie i grzech? Jak możemy być przewodnikami dla innych, skoro sami jesteśmy ślepi? W 2010 roku przeprowadzono wśród katolików badanie na temat stanu naszej wiary. Kwestionariusz zawierał 32 pytania, z czego badani odpowiedzieli dobrze średnio na 16. Pokazuje to, iż niezbyt dobrze znamy zasady wiary katolickiej. 45% katolików nie ma pojęcia o nauce ich własnego Kościoła, zgodnie z którą chleb i wino rozdawane w czasie Komunii Świętej nie jedynie symbolami, lecz rzeczywistym Ciałem i Krwią Chrystusa. Jak pokazują wyniki badania przeprowadzonego w 2015, aż 86% katolików wierzy w Niepokalane Poczęcie Jezusa, podczas gdy 67% wierzy w Jego faktyczne Zmartwychwstanie. 54% katolików regularnie oddaje cześć Matce Bożej. 41% katolików pragnie mieć dzieci, zaś 33% sprzeciwia się aborcji niezależnie od sytuacji. 68% katolickich małżeństw nie zapisało swoich dzieci na jakiekolwiek zajęcia z katechezy. Jezus pyta w dzisiejszej Ewangelii: „Czy może niewidomy prowadzić niewidomego?” Słowa Mesjasza nie są czystym wymysłem. Opisują one stan wiedzy współczesnych katolików i w sposób naprawdę niepokojący odnoszą się również do nas. Najbliższa środa jest Środą Popielcową – dniem postu oraz wstrzemięźliwości od pokarmów mięsnych. Głowę będzie można posypać popiołem jedynie w trakcie Mszy Świętych. W biuletynie znajdziecie aktualny rozkład liturgii. Maryjo, Matko Nieustającej Pomocy, miej nas zawsze w Swej opiece. Święty Józefie, módl się za nami. Vivat Iesus! Chwała Jezusowi!

FR. BOB’S BRIEFS We are back where we started. Do you remember? Five weeks ago, we began reading through Jesus’

Bread of Life Discourse in the sixth chapter of the Gospel of John. At the beginning of John 6, we read, “Jesus went across the Sea of Galilee. A large crowd followed him because they saw the signs he was performing on the sick.” At that place and time, Jesus miraculously multiplied the five barley loaves and two fish to feed 5,000 people. For the past five weeks, we have heard how this large multitude of people has been constantly been hanging around Jesus. Now, this week, we hear how this vast crowd of people leaves Jesus and go away.

Many of Jesus' disciples who were listening said, "This saying is hard; who can accept it?"Since Jesus knew that his disciples were murmuring about this, he said to them, "Does this shock you? The words I have spoken to you are Spirit and life. But there are some of you who do not believe." As a result of this, many of his disciples returned to their former way of life and no longer accompanied him.” What a different scene it is today, compared to the scene from the previous four weeks. In the previous four weeks, we saw how thousands of people were all gathered around Jesus. Now, they all leave. Jesus is left by Himself by Sea of Galilee. We read in the Gospel of John today, “Jesus then said to the Twelve, "Do you also want to leave?" Simon Peter answered him, "Master, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life. We have come to believe and are convinced that you are the Holy One of God." In the beautiful, but poignant image, we see Jesus left alone, except by the Twelve, His only remaining friends. Jesus stands in the center, looking out at the sunset over the Sea of Galilee. Only the Twelve remain with Jesus. So, we are back where we started: Jesus alone with the Twelve at the edge of the Seas of Galilee. It is a sad and somber scene as Jesus and the Twelve look out over the Sea of Galilee by themselves. Where did everybody go? This scene from today’s Gospel is not just a picture isolated to the past. Does this scene not replay throughout the passage of time? Does this scene not replay in our own time and age? Where are all the people? Next time you are at church, look around. What do you see? I saw no more than 70 people at any of the Masses for the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary last week. The latest statistics show that 80-85% of Catholics do not go to Sunday Mass every week. Just like in today’s Gospel, everybody seems to have left Jesus. Only a few remain with our Lord. It is very ironic that people do not want communion with Jesus in this life, but they want communion with Jesus in heaven for eternal life. Explain to me how do people expect to have communion with God in heaven, if they do not have communion with God beginning here on earth? That’s the culmination and whole point of Jesus’ Bread of Life discourse that we have been hearing for the past five weeks. Jesus gives us His Flesh and Blood so that He can be in Communion with us. Our Lord desires to be one with, to be in union (com-munion) with you, me, and everybody. At Mass, you see the priest pour some water into the chalice filled with wine. When doing so, the priest prays: “By the mystery of this water and wine may we come to share in the divinity of Christ who humbled himself to share in our humanity.” St. Cyprian (210-258 AD) writes, “when the water is mingled in the cup with wine, the people are made one with Christ.”

However, for most people, we don’t want communion with God. We only follow after God, like the people in the Gospel, because we want God to give us things. God is like a type of Santa Claus, who is supposed to give me things in life. I read once somewhere that “God is not a ‘Cosmic Concierge’ who lives only to satisfy each and every one of our whims.” Yet, that is how we treat God too often in our life. “God give me this. God give me that.” We seek out God to get things from Him. Our God seeks us out to be close to us, to be in communion with us. The Latin root of communion is communio, meaning "fellowship, mutual participation, or association." The relationship that that Jesus is seeking with us is different than the relationship that we seek from Him. Jesus wants fellowship with us. Our Lord desires to share His Divine life and love with us. He asks the same question that He asked the Twelve earlier. "Do you also want to leave?" Do we stay with Jesus or do we leave Him?

Please pray for the safety of all who serve us in the military. May the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of Good Help, help us with her maternal care, and may St. Joseph pray for us. Vivat Jesus! Live Jesus!

This week, we have the third and final section from St. Luke’s Sermon on the Plain. In this brief passage, St. Luke records four short parables of our Lord taught in His Sermon on the Plain. We hear three of those Parables in the Gospel of Luke today at Mass. The first is the Parable of the Blind Guide, the second is the Parable of the Splinter and Beam, and the third is the Parable of Tree and its Fruits. The fourth Parable, not included in the Lectionary reading today, is the Parable of the Two Foundations. The first parable taught by Jesus in the gospel today is the Parable of the Blind Guide. “Jesus told his

disciples a parable, "Can a blind person guide a blind person? Will not both fall into a pit?” In the image below, we see a beautiful painting illustrating Jesus’ Parable heard in the Gospel today. The painting is entitled the Parable of the Blind: The Blind Leading the Blind by Sebastian Vrancx. Blindness is condition of darkness and lack of color, light. Yet, this painting about the Parable of the Blind Leading the Blind is very vibrant and colorful. In this painting, we see five blind people walking in a line; each is holding on and being guided by the person in front of them. In the lower right hand corner, the blind guide has fallen into a ditch of water. The second person holding on to him is falling down after the guide, and he is pulling the next person. We can presume that the same fate will befall the third blind man, and the other two people as well. Teaching on this passage of the gospel, St. John Chrysostom teaches: “it is a great evil merely to be blind, but to be in such a case and have none to lead him, nay, to occupy the place of a guide, is a double and triple ground of censure. It is a dangerous thing for the blind man not to have a guide, much more so that he should even desire to be guide to another.”

In the Scriptures, blindness is very symbolic. Blindness is a great spiritual symbol of sin, of a weakened and impaired spiritual vision. In this blindness, we see not the splendor of God, nor do we see as God sees. Faith is the opposite of blindness. Faith allows the light of God to open our eyes, darkened by sin and disbelief. Faith is trusting in God to lead us. Each of us needs God’s light and guidance in life. Otherwise, we fall into the pit of ignorance, disbelief, and sin. St. John Chrysostom explains that the habitual sinner is like one who is plunged into that pit of darkness, and despises corrections, sermons, censures, help, and even God Himself.

Are we blind spiritually? Are the eyes of our soul darkened by ignorance, disbelief, and sin? How can we guide others in the faith if we are blind ourselves? In a 2010 U.S. Religious Knowledge Survey, Catholics don’t have a firm grasp of the tenets of their faith. In this survey, people were asked 32 questions about the faith, Catholics averaged 16 correct answers. 45% of Catholics did not know that their church teaches that the consecrated bread and wine in Holy Communion are not merely symbols, but actually become the Body and Blood of Christ. In another 2015 study, 86% of Catholics believe in the Virgin Birth of Jesus, and 67% of Catholics believe in Jesus’ actual resurrection from the dead. 54% have a devotion to Mary as the Virgin Mother of God. 41% of Catholics are open to having children, and 33% of Catholics oppose abortion at all times. 68% of Catholics with children under age 18 have sent them for no religious education whatsoever. Jesus says in the Gospel can a blind person guide a blind person? The words of Jesus are not just imaginary fiction. The words of Jesus describe the real life of Catholics today and apply to us in an alarming way.

This Wednesday is Ash Wednesday, a day of Fasting and Abstinence from meat. Ashes will only be distributed at Mass. See bulletin for Mass times. May the Virgin Mary, Mother of Good Help, help us with her maternal care and St. Joseph pray for us!

Vivat Jesus! Live Jesus!
