Rector’s Corner

Happy Mother's Day! We celebrate Mother's Day in the month of May, which is also known as the Month of Mary. This year, May 13, marks a special event: the 100th anniversary of the appearance of Mary in Fatima, Portugal. Revealing herself as Our Lady of the Rosary, she asked for prayers to her Immaculate Heart, for conversion and penance. Conversion and penance have, as their aim, the glory of God and its result—our own divini-zation. We become partakers of the divine life in Christ. In other words, penance and conversion have—as their goal—the glory of God: sinners transformed into the fullness of his love. This is Christian joy. Penance and conversion do not have as their aim dour Christians, ringing their hands constantly at their own sinfulness and hopelessness in the world. I am not sure whose message it is, but it's certainly not our inheritance as followers of Jesus. I share with you the following quote from Saint John Paul II in his reflection on a Wednesday audience in 2004 (re-quoting what he shared in March 1984, when he entrusted all humanity to the Immaculate Heart of Mary in response to Fatima):

“Mother of Christ, let there be revealed, once more, in the history of the world the infinite saving power of the Redemption: the power of merciful Love! May it put a stop to evil! May it transform consciences! May your Immaculate Heart reveal for all the light of hope!”

Conversion and penance are a response to God's mercy. And mercy results in joy! The following is from Pope Francis, the opening paragraph from the encyclical, The Joy of the Gospel, paragraph 1:

“The joy of the Gospel fills the hearts and lives of all who encounter Jesus. Those who accept his offer of salvation are set free from sin, sorrow, inner emptiness and loneliness. With Christ joy is constantly born anew.”

The mother heart of Mary is one filled with joy (cf. the Magnificat), and as our Mother, her example and presence lead us to the joy of the merciful heart of the Father, through her Son. Let us, as the Cathedral of Saint Mary, point our expectation to the Lord's joy, made new each day in us. We give thanks to God for the beautiful gift of our mothers, whose selfless love brought each one of us into the world and nurtured our own faith. Fr. Tim

Bishop Vásquez’ Prayer Request: For our parish community, that all we do may give witness to Christ, by welcoming, loving, forgiving and serving all people we meet.

Por nuestra comunidad parroquial, para que todo lo que hagamos de testimonio de Cristo, al dar la bienvenida, al amar, al perdonar y al servir a toda la gente que encontremos.

Cathedral Clergy wish all

mothers, a very

¡Feliz día de la madre! Celebramos el Día de la Madre en el mes de mayo, que también es conocido como el Mes de María. Este año, 13 de mayo, marca un evento especial: el centenario de la aparición de María en Fátima, Portugal. Revelándola como Nuestra Señora del Rosario, pidió oraciones a su Inmaculado Corazón, para conversión y penitencia. La conversión y la penitencia tienen como fin la gloria de Dios y—su resultado—nuestra propia divinización. Nos convertimos en participantes de la vida divina en Cristo. En otras palabras, la penitencia y la conversión tienen como meta la gloria de Dios: los pecadores se transforman en la plenitud de su amor. Esta es la alegría cristiana. La penitencia y la conversión no tienen como objetivo a los duros cristianos, tocando sus manos constantemente en su propia pecaminosi-dad y desesperanza en el mundo. No estoy seguro de quién es el mensaje, pero ciertamente no es nuestra herencia como seguidores de Jesús. Comparto con ustedes la siguiente cita de San Juan Pablo II en su reflexión sobre un miércoles en el 2004 (re-citando lo que compartió en marzo de 1984 cuando confió a la humanidad al Corazón Inmaculado de María en respuesta a Fátima):

"Madre de Cristo, que se revele, una vez más, en la historia del mundo el poder salvador infinito de la Redención: el poder del Amor misericordioso! ¡Que ponga fin al mal! Que transformen las conciencias! ¡Que tu Corazón Inmaculado se revele por toda la luz de la esperanza! "

La conversión y la penitencia son una respuesta a la misericordia de Dios. ¡Y la misericordia resulta en alegría! Lo que sigue es del Papa Francisco, el primer párrafo de la encíclica, La Alegría del Evangelio, párrafo 1:

“La Alegría del Evangelio llena los corazones y las vidas de todos los que se encuentran con Jesús. Aquellos que aceptan su oferta de salvación son liberados del pecado, del dolor, del vacío interior y de la soledad. Con Cristo la alegría nace constantemente de nuevo.”

La madre del corazón de María es una llena de alegría (cf. Magnificat), y como nuestra Madre su ejemplo y presencia nos conduce al gozo del corazón misericordioso del Padre, a través de su Hijo. Déjanos, como la Catedral de Santa María, apuntar nuestra expectativas al gozo del Señor, hecho nuevo cada día en nosotros. Damos gracias a Dios por el hermoso don de nuestras madres, cuyo amor desinteresado trajo cada uno de nosotros al mundo y alimentó nuestra propia fe. Padre Tim
