“[Jesus] asked them, “Who do the crowds say I am?’ … Then [Jesus] said to them, ‘But who do you say I am?’ Peter said in reply, ‘The Christ of God.’ He rebuked them and directed them not to tell this to anyone.”

As you probably know, Jesus used the very familiar, Aramaic form of address when he spoke of his Father in heaven. When he commanded his disciples (men and women) to do likewise, he said, “This is how you are to pray, ‘Our Father,’” (Luke 11:2-4), they knew at once what he meant. Approach God with the simplicity, trust, confidence, and familiarity of a loved son or daughter. You might not be the perfect child [no human being can be], but HE is the perfect father with something we can only marvel at: unconditional love for us.

USE MORE OF YOUR MIND AT MASS ADAPTED FROM FR. JAMES WELDON

Donate cheerfully! Your contributions will go toward the building up of the parish in more ways than you know. Think about that, and do what comes thoughtfully.

Divine Murmurs Many Minds, Many Sources; Same God

A baby is God’s opinion that the world should go on. Carl Sandburg * * * * * * * *

Saint Joseph (Yosef) of Bethlehem

An Imaginative View from Artistic Renderings Did you get a copy? Monsignor Sandi prepared a leaflet we hope you will treasure. It’s a unique attempt to “give flesh and blood,” to Joseph, hus-band of the Virgin Mary and Jesus’ foster father.

* * * * * * * * A Capital Campaign FOR US!

The Archdiocese of New York, in an effort to improve the physical condition of all parishes (or pay off debts), is asking all pastors to unveil an Autumn Capital Campaign (similar to the one we ran in 2006). Local parishes will retain 74% of their specified goal, with the rest going to support poor parishes (who cannot sun such a campaign) and the regional schools. Along these lines, we are thinking very seriously about the feasibility of air conditioning the church with techniques unavailable when a similar plan for Holy Trinity was considered almost twenty years ago. Priests and parishioners alike agree that perhaps this is the time. Please be assured, we will never endanger any of the historic components of the magnificent building that provides us our sacred patrimony. More to follow. * * * * * * * *

Happy Father’s Day! Thank you, Dads, for doing what you must for the health and welfare of your families God put in your hands. In your honor, we highlight Saint Joseph, husband of Mary and guardian of Jesus. You’ll never find very many candles at the foot of his statue in our sanctuary. His wife and child were, and still are, at the center of his world. He was an honorable “son of the Law,” who lived to see the Word made flesh, and protected Mother and Child, when no one else would. [See the box above.] Special Father’s Day envelopes are at the back of the church for your convenience. Please list all the fathers of your family (living and deceased) and drop it in any collection. As with the Mother’s Day envelopes, Father’s Day envelopes will be placed on the altar throughout the month of June.

[Excerpt of a note received by the pastor] Thank you very much for taking time to anoint me … and for having such a welcoming parish. While recovering I attended Mass and felt comfortable, as your priests and staff were very friendly. Thank you. What a parish!

* * * * * * * *

Thanks, Dad! 4 years: My Daddy can do anything! 7 years: My Dad knows a lot … a whole lot. 8 years: My father does not know quite everything. 12 years: Oh well, naturally Father does not know that either. 21 years: Oh, that man – he is so out of date!. 25 years: He knows a little bit about it, but not much. 30 years: I must find out what Dad thinks about it. 35 years: Before we decide, we will get Dad’s idea first. 50 years: What would Dad have thought about that? 60 years: My Dad knew literally everything.! 65 years: I wish I could talk it over with Dad once more. Happy Father’s Day! St. Joseph, pray for us.

El que quiera seguirme….

Jesús es, en verdad, un gran profeta que habla en nombre de Dios y lee la historia de los hombres a la luz del designio divino, pero también es mucho más. El mesías de Dios, pero... Pedro, y los demás apóstoles, han acompañado a Jesús durante un buen tiempo, han convivido con él, le han visto orar, predicar, curar; han escuchado sus enseñanzas, sobre todo sus palabras sobre el Reino de Dios. Han dado un paso más en el conocimiento de Jesús: No sólo es un profeta, es el mesías de Dios. Sí, el mesías, descendiente de David, el caudillo batallador, el rey victorioso que ha logrado la máxima expansión del reino de Israel, derrotando a todos sus enemigos. Jesús repetirá, como mesías, la figura de David: derrotará a los romanos, ampliará las fronteras del reino, los reyes de las naciones vendrán a él para rendirle vasallaje y pleitesía. El reino de Israel, reino de Yahvéh, volverá a ser glorioso. Jesús no está de acuerdo con este mesianismo soñado por Pedro y los demás apóstoles. Jesús no niega, ni jamás negará, que es el mesías. Sería negar la verdad, y esto es imposible para quien es la Verdad. Pero Jesús no hace propia la figura de un mesías, caudillo de las huestes de Yahvéh. Mesías de Dios, sí, pero mesías diverso a como lo imaginan los discípulos más cercanos.

Este mesías sufriente, algo inusitado e inconcebible para cualquier hombre, es identificado con el Hijo de Dios por San Pablo, quien, por eso, en la segunda lectura, puede decir que los cristianos "somos hijos de Dios en Cristo Jesús", su verdadero y único Hijo. Ahora ya podemos responder mejor a la pregunta sobre quién es Jesús: "Tú eres el mesías, el Hijo de Dios vivo".
