A message from Fr. Tony
LIVING AS THE BODY OF CHRIST
Some of Saint Paul’s best known and most beloved imagery is contained in the passages from First Corinthians that we have heard last week and this week: the many gi s granted by the one same Spirit and the many members making up the one Body of Christ. Few passages from sacred scripture more accurately sum up how Chris an voca ons work together.
Unlike some of Paul’s other wri ngs, which are a product of the social and religious conven-ons of his me, these enable us to look at our own lives and the lives of those around us to
discern what gi s, what voca ons the Holy Spirit has given for the good of all. We can like-wise know the joys and sorrows of the other members of the Body and share in them for the strengthening of the whole Body of Christ.

TODAY’S READINGS First Reading — Ezra read from the book of the law of God to the assembled people. They understood and accepted the law (Nehemiah 8:2-4a, 5-6, 8-10).
Psalm — Your words, Lord, are Spirit and life (Psalm 19).
Second Reading — As the body with its many parts is s ll one body, so it is with Christ (1 Corinthians 12:12-30 [12-14, 27]).
Gospel — While a ending worship in the Nazarean syna-gogue, Jesus reads from the prophet Isaiah and declares him-self to be the fulfillment of the prophecy (Luke 1:1-4; 4:14-21).
LECTURAS DE HOY Primera lectura — Esdras leyó el libro de la ley de Dios ante la asamblea reunida. El pueblo entendió y aceptó la ley (Nehemías 8:2-4a, 5-6, 8-10).
Salmo — Tú enes, Señor, palabras de vida eterna (Salmo 19 [18]).
Segunda lectura — Del mismo modo que el cuerpo con sus mu-chas partes forma un solo cuerpo, así también Cristo (1 Corin os 12:12-30 [12-14, 27]).
Evangelio — Jesús, par cipando del culto en la sinagoga de Naza-ret, leyó del profeta Isaías y declara que en su propia persona se cumple la profecía (Lucas 1:1-4; 4:14-21).
Un mensaje de parte de Padre Tony
LA VIDA DEL CUERPO DE CRISTO Algunas de las imágenes más conocidas y queridas de san Pablo se encuentran en los pasajes de la primera carta a los corin os que hemos escuchado la semana pasada y hoy: los muchos dones de un mismo Espíritu y los muchos miembros que componen el Cuerpo de Cristo. Pocos pasajes de la Sagrada Escritura resumen con mayor claridad cómo las vocaciones cris anas trabajan en colaboración.
A diferencia de otros escritos de san Pablo, producto de las convenciones sociales y religiosas de su época, estos nos permiten mirar nuestra propia vida y la vida de los que están a nuestro alrededor para discernir los dones, la vocación que el Espíritu Santo nos ha dado para el bien de todos. Así también podemos conocer las alegrías y las penas de los otros miembros del Cuerpo y compar rlos para así fortalecer todo el Cuerpo de Cristo.

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
As Roman Catholics, our marriage prac ces have their pedigree in ancient Rome. One of the major players in shaping our prac ces was the warfare involved in building an empire. Soldiers vanished and some mes never returned. Women began to manage their lives and to make decisions. The old family values were replaced by patrio c ones, and religion was more a uned to the gore and glory of ba le, a religion of the state, not of the family. Weddings were s ll family celebra ons, but had a public face. The bride wore a white toga and a red veil and walked to her new home. There, she and her husband joined their right hands and gave con-sent to each other, not relying on her father to give consent for her. Religion was op onal: a pagan priest might be invited or not, and even without the ceremony, society agreed by common law that a year of living together equaled marriage consent. By the same token, marriage by consent also meant divorce was on the same legal foo ng, and did not require the courts or civil declara-
ons. This is the world-view the first Chris ans inherited, and it was up to them to determine what was good and to hold marriage up to the light of the gospel.
