Over the last couple of weeks, we have heard stories about faith, and today’s gospel is no different. We see interactions between Jesus and followers with great faith. In fact, their faith is great enough that it immediately gets Jesus’ attention. Jairus, the synagogue official, was able to quickly convince Jesus to travel to heal his ailing daughter, and then to raise her from the dead; not by who he was…but by the faith Jesus recognized in him. The woman in the crowd had the same faith. And while Jesus didn’t see her directly at first, he recognized her by her touch. Her faith allowed her to be healed. This is the strong faith Jesus speaks of. But how are we to find it? More often than not, it seems out of reach. Fortunately, Jesus knows each of us better than we know ourselves and will help us along our journey to the type of faith he speaks of. We need only to be open and willing to allow him into our hearts. June 28, 2015

Farewell Fr. Vincent Romuald! This weekend is his last with us and we invite you to bid him farewell. You are invited to a reception in his honor following the 1:30pm Sunday Mass June 28 – Wozniak Hall.
!Despedida al Padre Vicente Romualdo! Este es el último fin de semana que Padre Vicente estará con nosotros. Todos están invitados a una recepción de despedida en su honor el domingo, 28 de junio, después de la Misa de 1:30pm en el Centro de Actividades, Wozniak Hall.
Viviendo Nuestra Fe
En las últimas semanas hemos oído historias de fe. El evangelio de hoy es similar. Vemos las interacciones entre Jesús y los seguidores de mucha fe. De hecho, la fe de estas personas es tan grande que llama inmediatamente la atención de Nuestro Señor. Jairo, el oficial de la sinagoga, pudo convencer a Jesús a que viajara con el para sanar a su hija enferma, y luego para levantarla de la muerte; esto sucedió no por quien era nuestro Señor Jesús sino por la fe que El vio en Jairo. La mujer entre el gentío tenia la misma fe. Y mientras Jesús no la vio directamente al principio, la reconoció simplemente por su toque. La fe de esa mujer permitió que ella fuera sanada. Jesús habla de una fe fuerte pero ¿como la encontramos? Generalmente parece ser difícil de obtener. Afortunadamente, Jesús nos conoce mejor de lo que nos conocemos nosotros mismos y nos ayudará en nuestra jornada para llegar a tener esa clase de fe. Solo necesitamos estar abiertos y dejar que Cristo entre a nuestros corazones.
