The LORD, merciful and gracious, rich in kindness and faithfulness (Exodus 34:4b‐6, 8‐9) In this passage from Exodus we get just a glimpse of a larger and richer scene in which God grants to Moses, as the mediator for Israel, a forty‐day‐long mys cal experience of himself so profound that it alters Moses’s appearance, causing his face to shine or glow (34:29). In this scene, though prostrate on the ground in adora‐

on, Moses, in a remarkable show of in macy, can say to this awesome God, “If I find favor with you, O LORD, do come along in our compa‐ny.” God acknowledges this simple invita on to “come along,” declaring in a later verse, “Behold I make a covenant. Before all your people I will do marvels, such as have not been wrought in all the earth or in any na on” (Exodus 34:10; RSV:2CE). Unlike Moses, who makes “haste to bow his head” (Exodus 34:8; RSV: 2CE), the Israelites are “s ff‐necked” (v. 9), yet God elects them for what he calls a “terrible thing” (v. 10), an awesome display of his grace and mercy at Sinai and beyond. Through them, in their Messiah, Je‐sus Christ, he will reveal the inner secret of his eternal mystery of per‐sonal communion, of which the cov‐enant he forms with this people is but a faint reflec on. But already, in Moses, we see that covenant com‐munion with God is transforma ve in the deepest sense. Not only does it make his face glow, but it also makes his life of surrender to God a magnifi‐cent beacon for the whole human race down the centuries.

Brothers and sisters, rejoice. Live with one another in peace, and the God of peace will be with you (2 Co‐rinthians 13:11‐13) In our Second Reading, from the Lec‐

onary we get a very similar mes‐sage to the passage from Exodus in our First Reading.. St. Paul, in effect, exhorts the Corinthians not to be “s ff‐necked.” If they will mend their ways and live in love and peace with one another, then “the God of love and peace” will be with them. In or‐der to have God remain “in our com‐pany,” we must remain true to the great commandment of the new cov‐enant to love God above all things and our neighbor as ourselves. From its founda ons, one of the primary characteris cs of the Church has been the love that its members show for one another. That shocking love displayed among early Chris ans was one of the clear‐est signs that God had bestowed his special grace upon them, and it gave the Church a tremendous gravita‐

onal force, a rac ng new adher‐ents at a surprising rate. If we don’t see a drama c harvest of souls in our own day, ought we not to ask our‐selves whether our love for our neighbor would shock anyone enough to cause them to inves gate the Chris an life? If not, then what we need is more of the “love,” “grace” and “fellowship” of the three Persons—Father, Son and Holy Spirit—to which St. Paul commits the Corinthians in the closing words of this passage, which also closes the en re epistle from which it is drawn.

God did not send the Son to con‐demn the world, but to give it abun‐dant life (John 3:16‐18). God so loved the world...” This is one of the best known phrases from the Bible. It’s not at all uncommon to see “John 3:16” on placards at spor ng events or even on roadside billboards. It has become emblem‐a c of the whole Gospel of Jesus Christ because it tells us in brief about the whole of salva on history and the Father's plan for the human race. In Jesus, the Father’s only Son, the Father announces not only his intent to save the world, but also his very divine iden ty as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. In the Person of Christ, these two dimensions of the Gospel, redemp on and revela on, are in mately united. By revealing who he is, God simultaneously re‐veals his saving love. The God who loves us to the end—as St. John will later say in Chapter 13 in his Gospel —reveals the depth of that love first in his self‐revela on to us that he is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Out of the immense fire of love that God is in himself—the eter‐nal exchange of love between the three divine Persons—comes the saving love of Christ's Incarna on. The pierced side of our Savior on the Cross pierces our hearts to reveal the essence of Trinitarian love. The immensity of the divine love, in both its redeeming and revealing dimen‐sions, fills us with the confidence that he comes not to condemn the world, but so that we “might not per‐ish but have eternal life.”

I n our reading from Exodus, Mo‐ses has an incredible encounter with God. Moses didn’t want an

abstract knowledge of God, but wanted to know the Person of God, to see the face of God, to learn God’s name. In response, God reveals his innermost name. Why is this so important? When we know a person’s name, we can enter into a rela onship with them. So when Moses learns God’s name, he begins to learn God’s character as well. Moses talks about God’s rich, stead‐fast love, and those characteris cs become a kind of mission statement: “The LORD, the LORD, a merciful and gracious God, slow to anger and rich in kindness and fidelity.” In fact, this “mission statement” from Exodus 34 is the most quoted line of the Penta‐teuch. Throughout their history, the Israelites have held onto God’s mercy and from that iden ty comes God’s

deeds—his mercy, his kindness, and his steadfast love. Then in the Gospel of John, we get the famous line about God so loving the world, that he gave his only Son. This highlights two of the key ac ons of God: first his love, and second, his giving. Through this we learn that love is an ac on, not a feeling, and that love is expressed in giving. From all of this we come to realize that God is a loving God who wants to share his goodness with us, so he gives us the Son, who infinitely gives himself back to the Father. This love and mutual self‐giving is the Person of the Holy Spirit, for God is love and his deeds are love. God is one God, with Three Persons united in love, and the Holy Spirit is the manifesta‐

on of that giving love. PRAYER: In the reading from Exodus, we are told that the Lord is merciful and gra‐

cious, slow to anger, and rich in kind‐ness and fidelity. Do you think God is merciful in your life? Slow to anger? In what ways have you experienced God’s kindness and fidelity? How does this descrip on of God’s charac‐ter help you grow in your rela onship with God? RESOLUTION: Consider all the ways that God has been gracious, slow to anger, and kind to you. You may want to write down these things this week so that you remember them and can see how God is in mately involved in your life. Use your journal to write down your thoughts, reflec ons, and your reso‐lu ons.

Todos están invitados a nuestra procesión bilingüe de Corpus Chris . Se invita a los ministerios a traer pancartas para caminar detrás del San simo Sacramento. Aquellos que han recibido recientemente su Primera Co‐munión están invitados a llevar sus trajes en la procesión. Celebraremos una Misa bilingüe (no habrá Misa en español a las 7 pm), seguida de una recepción para nuestro querido Padre Rafael en el pa o. El se unirá a la comunidad de St. Anthony en Oakley el 1 de julio. El Rev. Alfonso Borgen, OFM Conv, se unirá a San Miguel como nuestro nuevo Vicario Parroquial, a par r del 1 de agosto.

Nos juntamos para recordar a nuestros seres queridos difuntos a las 7:00 p.m. Nuestra Misa Bilingüe nos da la oportunidad de hacer honor a nues‐tros amados difuntos al celebrar una misa en su nombre. Los mo vamos a que traigan una foto de su ser querido en marco y puesto ante el altar du‐rante la misa. El ritual del recuerdo nos da una oportunidad de venir hacia adelante con una rosa, encender una vela, y hablar sobre las personas que estamos recordando, si así lo desea. Rosas y velas serán dadas. Esta misa trimestral es patrocinada por el Ministerio de Apoyo de Dolor de St. Michael y St. Charles. Todos están invitados.

La diócesis apoya al clero desde su for‐mación inicial hasta su jubilación. Una porción de los fondos de La Apelación se usa para apoyar la formación de seminaristas que se preparan para toda una vida de servicio a la comunidad de fe de la Iglesia de Oakland. Estos hom‐bres siguen un llamado especial al ser‐vicio y necesitan de nuestras oraciones y apoyo financiero en su viaje vocacion‐al. El costo de apoyo a estos seminar‐istas en sus estudios es una de las mayores par das presupuestarias para la diócesis. Entre más hombres disci‐ernen el llamado a servir a la Iglesia de Oakland y el Área de la Bahía, estos cos‐tos seguirán creciendo. La con nua actualización, renovación y la educación de los sacerdotes que sirven a la diócesis es importante para una Iglesia vital y creciente. La diócesis, con fondos de La Apelación, ofrece pro‐gramas de renovación, sabá cos y edu‐cación con nua para nuestros sacer‐dotes. En sus años de jubilación, nuestros sac‐erdotes merecen nuestro agradeci‐miento por una vida de servicio. Los fondos de La Apelación del Obispo proveerán ayuda suplementaria duran‐te la jubilación y cuidado a largo plazo para nuestros sacerdotes ancianos. El diaconado es un ministerio de ser‐vicio vital para los programas en nues‐tras parroquias que llegan a personas en lugares como las cárceles y hospi‐tales de nuestra área. Los diáconos que sirven a nuestra diócesis también reci‐ben educación con nua, formación y apoyo en su ministerio.

 No habra ninguna misa los miér-coles por la noche durante el mes de julio.   El Rev. Alfonso Borgen, OFM Conv, será el nuevo Vicario Parroquial de la Parroquia San Miguel, Livermore Efec vo 1de Agosto del 2017 

GLORIA Y ALABANZA POR SIEMPRE Cuando Moisés subió al monte Sinaí, Dios le hizo la revelación más extraor‐dinaria, Dios le reveló su nombre: "Señor, Señor, Dios compasivo y mis‐ericordioso" (Éxodo 34:6). En el An g‐uo Testamento, estamos acostumbra‐dos a asumir que "Señor, Dios" indica solamente a Dios Padre. Pero en la retrospec va con la que vemos a es‐tas lecturas, podemos ver que el

tulo incluye a las tres personas de la San sima Trinidad. Nunca ha habido alguna separación de las tres per‐sonas en un solo Dios, y aun cuando solo se mencione a una de las per‐sonas de la San sima Trinidad, se en‐

ende que las tres están presentes. Jesús enseñó muchas veces que él y el Padre son uno, y que el Espíritu Santo vendría a nosotros y nos haría re‐cordar muchos eventos. Creemos en Dios, creador de todo lo que existe; el Hijo, redentor de la vida y dador de la vida eterna, y el Espíritu Santo, inspir‐ación de los profetas y amante de toda la humanidad, la sabiduría sagra‐da, que nos inspira a comprender todas las cosas santas.

DIOS AMÓ TANTO AL MUNDO Cuando escuchamos en el versículo constantemente citado del Evangelio de Juan 3:16 "Porque tanto amó Dios al mundo, que entregó a su Uni‐génito, para que todo el que cree en él no perezca, sino que tenga vida eterna", empezamos a ver como el lenguaje que expresa el envío del Hijo es limitado para expresar la unidad de la San sima Trinidad. Esta limitación del lenguaje ante la presencia del mis‐terio de la San sima Trinidad es lo que lo hace di cil de explicar y com‐prender. Entonces, ¿cómo podemos responder cuando vemos una referencia a "Dios"? Podemos esforzarnos en re‐cordar que Dios son tres personas, no una sola como nosotros, y un solo ser. Nuestra mejor respuesta es alabar a la San sima Trinidad. "Gloria al Padre y al Hijo y al Espíritu Santo; a Dios quien fue, quien es y quien será." Y nosotros podemos bendecirnos uno al otro cuando rezamos con san Pablo "La gracia del Señor Jesucristo, el amor de Dios y la comunión del Es‐píritu Santo estén siempre con todos ustedes" (2 corin os 13:13).
