I. Carácter comunitario de la vocación humana

1878 Todos los hombres son llamados al mismo fin: Dios. Existe cierta semejanza entre la unio n de las personas divinas y la fraternidad que los hombres deben instaurar entre ellos, en la verdad y el amor. El amor al pro jimo es inseparable del amor a Dios. 1879 La persona humana necesita la vida social. Esta no constituye para ella algo sobrean adido sino una exigencia de su naturaleza. Por el intercambio con otros, la reciprocidad de servicios y el dia logo con sus hermanos, el hombre desa-rrolla sus capacidades; así responde a su vocacio n. 1880 Una sociedad es un conjunto de personas ligadas de manera orga nica por un principio de unidad que supera a cada una de ellas. Asamblea a la vez visible y espiritual, una sociedad perdura en el tiempo: recoge el pasado y prepara el porvenir. Mediante ella, cada hombre es constituido “heredero”, recibe “talentos” que enriquecen su identidad y a los que debe hacer fructificar. En verdad, se debe afirmar que cada uno tiene deberes para con las comunidades de que for-ma parte y esta obligado a respetar a las autoridades encar-gadas del bien comu n de las mismas. 1881 Cada comunidad se define por su fin y obedece en con-secuencia a reglas especí ficas, pero “el principio, el sujeto y el fin de todas las instituciones sociales es y debe ser la persona humana” . 1882 Algunas sociedades, como la familia y la ciudad, corres-ponden ma s inmediatamente a la naturaleza del hombre. Le son necesarias. Con el fin de favorecer la participacio n del mayor nu mero de personas en la vida social, es preciso im-pulsar, alentar la creacio n de asociaciones e instituciones de libre iniciativa “para fines econo micos, sociales, culturales, recreativos, deportivos, profesionales y polí ticos, tanto den-tro de cada una de las naciones como en el plano mundial”. Esta “socialización” expresa igualmente la tendencia natural que impulsa a los seres humanos a asociarse con el fin de al-canzar objetivos que exceden las capacidades individuales. Desarrolla las cualidades de la persona, en particular, su sen-tido de iniciativa y de responsabilidad. Ayuda a garantizar sus derechos.

ROYALTY FOOD SALES Jeimmy Perez’s food sale begins on Wednesday, May 29th, 11am—7pm. And will continue through Saturday, June 1st. Please show your support and go help in the kitchen. Any time is appreciated!

Cross Catholic Outreach Father Carlos Chavez of Cross Catholic Outreach will be visiting our parish next weekend to speak at all the Masses on behalf of the poor in developing countries. Cross Catholic Outreach was founded to create a mean-ingful link between parishes in America and the priest and nuns working in the Church overseas in the Carib-bean , Africa, Asia, Central and South America.

J.M.J.

“Then Jesus said to His disciples, “Whoever wishes to come after me must deny himself, take up his cross and follow me”.

(Matt 16:24) Dear Friends, Family, and Members of Our Lady of Guadalupe, I want to share my decision with you all that my second year of theology has just wrapped up and I will not be returning to seminary formation. I realize this may come as a surprise to many. I’ve implicitly had knowledge that the Lord was indi-cating this direction to me over a year ago. Throughout this year He made me more explicitly aware through my experi-ences, prayer, and discussions with my spiritual director and advisors at the seminary. I am leaving in good standing but more importantly with a peace and joy I have genuinely lacked for quite some time. I have always known that I would follow my Jesus wherever He led me whether out onto the water, the desert, or the semi-nary. I have always entrusted myself to Him and will continue to do so as I open my heart to His will elsewhere. I didn’t join the seminary because I knew I was going to be a priest but rather to see if the vocation was God’s will for my life. He has been so good to me throughout these years forming me into the Man He made me to be. That is why it was not an easy dis-cernment but rather a sincerely prayerful one. The decision doesn’t come as a result of choosing “what I want” or “what’s best for me” because it’s not about my wants but what He wants. That’s where my happiness exists. I don’t regret one second of my time in formation. I have felt nothing but love and support from our parish since I made an announcement years ago that I would be discerning the priesthood. It is also why I have had some fears of sharing this news because I know how many of you all have shared that they are proud of me in some way. But fear does not come from the Lord and because of that I write this letter to you all to say...Thank You. Thank you for your encouragement, support, and prayers. Our parish instilled in me a love for the Lord and openness to holy vocations and for that I am changed forever. To some, it may have seemed foolish for me to go to seminary; to others, it may still seem foolish that I’m choosing to discern another vocation. But I can say with St. Paul that, “We are

fools for the sake of Christ...”(1 Cor 4:10).

Gracias a Dios
