Volunteer
Volunteer to be a homework helper, a sight seeing guide
or assist with physical therapy for a teenage orphan girl.
We have a very generous host family from Our Lady of
Lourdes parish in Malverne, hosting a 17 year old girl
from an Ethiopian orphanage who is here for medical
attention.
Etetu is rapidly learning English, but she still struggles
with her school work in Math, Science, and Social Studies.
The host mom: Rosemary, has also been very generous in
paying for physical therapy out of her own pocket, but if
there is a generous minded physical therapist, she could
use some donated hours!!
The family could also use a break from time to time on the
weekends if you can take Etetu to the movies, bowling, the
mall, museums etc.
pleases email: RButigian@gmail.com or call:
631-423-5012 and leave your name and phone number. If
you can spare even a few hours once in a while to assist
this incredible host family, it would very much be
appreciated.** Please note that any hours donated can
receive a letter for community service hours, if needed.

Confiemos en Dios.
Sin importar nuestras condición social todos tenemos
nuestras limitaciones pasamos por momentos de dificultad, y necesidades, lo que nos hace dependientes de Dios
y de otras personas en ocasiones. El Centurión de Cafarnaun era una autoridad militar y tenia quien le sirviera
en casa, pero reconoció que no podía curar a su criado, y
busco la ayuda de quien el creía que podía devolverle la
salud, Jesús de quien el había oído hablar. Jesús alabo la
fe del centurión pero además el Centurión con su actitud
demostró una gran humildad, no se consideraba digno
de ir personalmente donde Jesús,
Fe y humildad elementos necesarios para hacer efectiva
nuestra oración. Si lo pensamos bien nos daremos cuenta
de que gran parte de nuestra oración es pidiendo por
nosotros y por nuestros familiares; pero debemos pedir
como nos aconseja Pablo por todos los hombres para que
se salven y por las autoridades para que desempeñando
correctamente sus cargos, la ciudadanía pueda vivir en
paz y tranquilidad.
En las lecturas salen a relucir dos elementos importantes
de la oración: la intercesión y la mediación. Cuando pedimos por los demás estamos intercediendo como lo hicieron los ancianos de los Judíos por el Centurión.
Jesús que es al mismo tiempo Dios y Hombre es el único
mediador nuestro ante el Padre, por eso dijo: “Nadie va
al Padre si no por Mi” (Juan 14,16) pero no desautoriza la
intercesión pues cuando enseño el Padre Nuestro dijo
que pidamos por nosotros o sea los otros y yo, eso es interceder.
Si Pablo nos dice que oremos por los demás, mientras
vivimos aquí en la tierra, entonces con mucha mas razón
pueden hacerlo los que ya están en el cielo en la presencia del Padre y del Hijo.
