    FORGIVENESS Nearly ten years before, a son and father had parted ways when the business they shared went bankrupt. The son blamed the father. They did not speak to each other again. Then the father became seriously ill. The mother called the son and told him he had better come soon. The son walked sheepishly into the hospital room. The father motioned his son to him and whispered: “Did you ever think you could do anything that would keep me from loving you?” Resentment and anger are foul things, the first reading from Sirach tells us. Remember the last things. Stop hating. Live by the commandments. As St. Paul writes to the Romans, we are to live for the Lord and die for the Lord. Jesus’ parable in today’s Gospel reminds us of God’s compassion. The immense sin of humanity has been forgiven and stricken from the record. We are to forgive others in the same way.

    PERDÓN Unos diez años antes, un padre e hijo se distanciaron cuando el negocio en el que eran socios se fue a bancarrota. El hijo culpó al padre. No se hablaron más. Entonces el padre se puso gravemente enfermo. La madre llamó al hijo y le dijo que viniera a verlo pronto. El hijo entró con vergüenza a su habitación en el hospital. El padre hizo un gesto para que se acercara y susurró: “¿Acaso pensaste que podrías hacer algo que me hiciera dejar de amarte?” El rencor y la cólera son abominables, nos dice la primera lectura de Sirácide. Piensa en tu fin. Deja de odiar. Vive conforme a los mandamientos. Como escribe san Pablo en Romanos, para el Señor vivimos y para el Señor morimos. Sin embargo, la parábola de Jesús en el Evangelio de hoy nos recuerda la compasión de Dios. El inmenso pecado de la humanidad ha sido perdonado y borrado del libro. Tenemos que perdonar a otros de igual manera. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

  • Bishop's Call for Prayers to Mary during September

    Dear Brothers and Sisters,

    I believe Mary is with us as we feel frustration, anger, pain, and uncertainty during these days of the continuing COVID-19 pandemic and increasing civil strife as we struggle with the scourge of racism and seemingly ever-increasing polarization. Mary understands and will intercede for us if we ask her.

    During the month of September we celebrate two feasts of Mary: September 8: The Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary

    September 15: Our Lady of Sorrows

    In Mary’s birth, we as Christians understand a great moment in the history of salvation, reaching the final steps before the coming of the long-awaited Messiah. In the moment it did not seem like anything momentous for humanity, and in it we can remember that God’s saving plan is always unfolding, even if we do not see it in outwardly momentous ways.

    Throughout Scripture we read several accounts of Mary and her understanding of motherhood and her gift of intercession. She understood fear, pain, suffering, frustration, and she intercedes on behalf of those who experience the same. When her Jesus remained in the Temple at the age of twelve without letting her know, Mary searched and searched for him, feeling the fear of losing him (Luke 2:41-52). When she attended the wedding feast at Cana and the host ran out of wine, she interceded by asking her son to assist at this embarrassing moment (John 2:1-12). As we remember her under the title Our Lady of Sorrows we see her at the foot of the cross, holding the body of her son, feeling the pain of death, loss, and letting go (John 19:25-27). In all these things, despite uncertainty, her trust was always in God.

    During this month of September I invite each family, each parishioner of the Diocese of Stockton to spend a moment each day offering a prayer to Mary asking her, begging her, to intercede for us to bring an end to racism and to this pandemic and everything which afflicts us and our neighbors. Mary, our Mother, will hear our prayers. Mary, our Mother, will intercede for us.

    The Diocese’s website has a list of prayers to ask Our Lady’s intercession. Please feel free to use these or other prayers or offer a prayer in your own words. May we, as a diocesan family, be together each day in a moment of prayer during this month of September.

    In the Peace of Christ, Bishop Cotta

    * Visit: stocktondiocese.org/marian-prayers

    Llamado del Obispo para orar a María durante Septiembre

    Queridos Hermanos y Hermanas,

    Creo que María está con nosotros mientras sentimos frustración, ira, dolor e incertidumbre durante estos días de la continua pandemia de COVID-19 y la creciente lucha civil mientras luchamos contra el flagelo del racismo y la polarización aparentemente cada vez mayor. María comprende e intercederá por nosotros si se lo pedimos.

    Durante el mes de septiembre celebramos dos fiestas de María: 8 de septiembre: Natividad de la Santísima Virgen María

    15 de septiembre: Nuestra Señora de los Dolores

    En el nacimiento de María, los cristianos entendemos un gran momento en la historia de la salvación, alcanzando los últimos pasos antes de la venida del Mesías tan esperado. En el momento no pareció nada trascendental para la humanidad, y en él podemos recordar que el plan salvífico de Dios siempre se está desarrollando, incluso si no lo vemos en formas aparentemente trascendentales.

    A lo largo de las Escrituras leemos varios relatos de María y su comprensión de la maternidad y su don de intercesión. Ella entendió el miedo, el dolor, el sufrimiento, la frustración e intercede por aquellos que experimentan lo mismo. Cuando su Jesús se quedó en el Templo a la edad de doce años sin avisarle, María lo buscó y lo buscó, sintiendo el temor de perderlo (Lucas 2: 41-52). Cuando asistió a la fiesta de bodas en Caná y el anfitrión se quedó sin vino, intercedió pidiéndole a su hijo que la ayudara en este momento embarazoso (Juan 2: 1-12). Al recordarla bajo el título de Nuestra Señora de los Dolores, la vemos al pie de la cruz, sosteniendo el cuerpo de su hijo, sintiendo el dolor de la muerte, la pérdida y el desprendimiento (Juan 19: 25-27). En todas estas cosas, a pesar de la incertidumbre, su confianza siempre estuvo en Dios.

    Durante este mes de septiembre invito a cada familia, a cada feligrés de la Diócesis de Stockton a dedicar un momento cada día a ofrecer una oración a María pidiéndole, rogándole, que interceda por nosotros para poner fin al racismo y a esta pandemia y a todo lo que nos aflige a nosotros y a nuestro prójimo. María, nuestra Madre, escuchará nuestras oraciones. María, nuestra Madre, intercederá por nosotros.

    El sitio web de la Diócesis tiene una lista de oraciones para pedir la intercesión de Nuestra Señora. No dude en utilizar estas u otras oraciones u ofrecer una oración con sus propias palabras. Que nosotros, como familia diocesana, estemos juntos cada día en un momento de oración durante este mes de septiembre.

    En la Paz de Cristo, Bishop Cotta

    Venga A La Confesión,

    No Importa Cuanto Tiempo

    Haya Pasado.

    “No tengan miedo de la Confesión. Uno, cuando esta en la fila para confesarse

    siente todas estas cosas, también la vergüenza pero luego, cuando termina

    la confesión, sale sintiéndose libre, genial, perdonado, limpio, y feliz.” - Papa Francisco

    Come To Confession, No Matter How Long It Has Been.

    “Don’t be afraid of Confession. When someone

    is in line for confession he feels all these things

    –even shame—but then, when he finishes

    confessing, he leaves feeling free, great,

    forgiven, clean, & happy.” - Pope Francis
