THANKSGIVING The word “thanksgiving” most often calls to our mind the holiday in November. But as early as the middle of the second century Justin Martyr referred to the blessed bread and wine of the Lord’s Supper as “food we call ‘thanksgiving’ ” (in Greek eucharistia). The Thanksgiving we celebrate in the autumn is at times marked by a sort of proud societal selfcongratulation and the consumption of food until we sink into an inert stupor. The “thanksgiving” that we call our Eucharist is just the opposite: we are led to it by an acknowledgment of our own failings; we remember our humble place in the scheme of things by giving praise to God alone. While the food of Christ’s body and blood fills our spiritual hungers, it also creates in us a greater hunger. We are not sent to our spiritual sofas to let the Lord’s Supper settle; we are sent to be living signs of that thanksgiving for the world by looking out for the poor and powerless, feeding the hungry, caring for the sick, speaking out against the self-righteous. In short, the hunger created by our doing in remembrance of Christ must lead us to living in remembrance of him. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION It has been said that the Church breathes with two lungs, East and West. Some of our family treasures are in the East, and it is interesting to consider how liturgical families developed around differing customs. Centuries before Christ, after the young girl was given to her husband by her father, the spouses were crowned. Christians retained that custom, keeping the wedding in the home, and sometimes inviting a visiting priest or bishop to put the crowns on their heads. By the fourth century, the crowns were seen not as royal crowns, but as the crowns of victory worn by martyrs. The crowns have nothing to do with being “king and queen for a day,” but rather speak of the sacrifice of love poured out fully. There are no vows exchanged at all, but the crowning is followed by a joyful dance by the priest and couple around the Gospel book. Unlike Roman law, which saw the wedding rites as optional, Eastern practice did not recognize a marriage that had not been blessed. —Rev. James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

El Cuerpo y la Sangre de Cristo 7 de junio de 2015 Levantaré el cáliz de salvación e invocaré el nombre del Señor. — Salmo 116 (115):13
Domingo 7 de Junio de 2015. Reflexionando la Palabra de Dios La celebración de Corpus Cristi es una buena oportunidad para revisar nuestras comuniones y la manera como nosotros nos preparamos para participar y participar en la celebración eucarística; para ver hasta qué punto esas comuniones son solamente un rito, que nos deja estáticos y sin ninguna clase de compromiso personal con Dios y con los hermanos. Hoy podríamos pensar en el momento solemne en el que Cristo quiso quedarse con nosotros y ver claramente que la comunión no puede significar nunca una huida, ni un quietismo, ni un apaciguamiento. Jesucristo repartió el pan e, inmediatamente, salió al exterior, donde le esperaba el dolor, la burla, el insulto y la muerte, que era la consecuencia del reparto del pan que había hecho entre los suyos. Así entendió la comunión nuestro Señor Jesucristo; su participación en el banquete eucarístico llevó consigo el compromiso total de su vida a favor de la humanidad. La mayoría de las veces nos disponemos a escuchar la Misa después de que llegamos al templo, sin embargo, tomando en cuenta que la Misa es un encuentro intenso e íntimo con nuestro Señor, es muy conveniente que tengamos las disposiciones propias y adecuadas, que corresponden a nuestra participación en la celebración de la Misa, y que lo hagamos desde antes de comenzar la celebración. Hagamos nuestro examen de conciencia, pidamos perdón, meditemos acerca de las bendiciones que podemos recibir en la Misa. Es por esta preparación por la que la Iglesia nos pide el ayuno una hora antes de Misa. El sentido de este ayuno no es no revolver la hostia con la comida, eso parecería absurdo, más bien busca disponernos interiormente, hacernos conscientes que no estamos yendo “al cine” o a “una reunión informal”, vamos al encuentro del Señor y por ello debemos disponernos física y espiritualmente para sacar el máximo provecho de este encuentro con Dios. Al respecto el catecismo nos dice: “Para
prepararse convenientemente a recibir este sacramento, los fieles deben observar el ayuno prescrito por la Iglesia. Por la actitud corporal (gestos, vestido) se manifiesta el respeto, la solemnidad, el gozo de ese momento en que Cristo se hace nuestro huésped.” (Catecismo de la Iglesia Católica n.1387).
Oración Señor queremos ser los granos de tu trigo. Queremos ser el trigo de tu harina. Queremos ser la harina de tu pan. Sé tú el molino que nos hace harina. Y sé Tú el horno que cuece como pan. Señor queremos ser tus viñas. Queremos ser los racimos de tu vino. Queremos ser el vino de tu mesa y de tu comunión. Queremos que nuestra comunión fraterna sea más que nuestras diferencias. Queremos que nuestras diferencias no ahoguen nuestra comunión. Señor queremos ser tu eucaristía para los demás hombres. Porque también nosotros queremos ser el “pan para los demás” Porque también nosotros queremos ser “esa sangre que se derrama por los otros”. (Clemente Sobrado C.P)
