Spring St. Twelfth Sunday in Ordinary Time June 21, 2015 1 A Message from Mike La Mensaje de Mike Recently Archbishop Listecki gave a reflection for Father’s day considering how some other famous men connected to his father. His father wasn’t famous and was never rich, instead he worked for over 30 years driving bus. What he saw in common to other famous dad’s was the gift of presence. While he was home and present to his children, he was also very supportive and encouraging. This is the image we have of God with Job in the first reading, at all of the hours of life, He is with us. This is the image we get this weekend of Jesus with his disciples out in the storm; sure he was asleep, but he was present to them. Jesus is of God so He was able to call out and calm the storm. So all of you father’s out there can take a breath to relax and not think you need to be perfect. The job of the father is to find balance in providing for the family while being present to the family with confidence and encouragement to calm the seas. I just survived my first official week of being pastor of the Tri-parishes and St. Katharine Drexel. With the swirl of activity, it’s good to go back to this basic check list of what is important in my job. For me, this assignment is so excellent because I get to be here for a number of years to come; which is a happy thing for me because I love calling this part of God’s creation my home. Recientemente arzobispo Listecki dio una reflexión para el día del padre teniendo en cuenta cómo otros hombres famosos estan conectados a su padre. Su padre no era famoso y nunca fue rico, en lugar trabajó por más de 30 años en conducir autobuses. Lo que vio en común a un padre famoso fue el regalo de la presencia. Mientras él estaba en casa y presente con sus hijos, también fue un gran apoyo y alentador. Esta es la imagen que tenemos de Dios con Job en la primera lectura, en todas las horas de la vida, Él está con nosotros. Esta es la imagen que obtenemos este fin de semana de Jesús con sus discípulos en la tormenta; Seguro que estaba dormido, pero él estaba presente para ellos. Jesús es de Dios por lo que Él fue capaz de llamar y calmar la tormenta. Así que todos los padres pueden respirar y relajarse y no pensar en que necesita ser perfecto. El trabajo del padre es encontrar el equilibrio en el suministro de la familia mientras que está presente a la familia con confianza y aliento para calmar los mares. Acabo de sobrevivir mi primera semana oficial de ser pastor de las tres parroquias y St. Katharine Drexel. Con el remolino de actividad, es bueno volver a esta lista de comprobación básica de lo que es importante en mi trabajo. Para mí, esta tarea es tan excelente porque me permite estar aquí por un número de años por venir; que es una cosa feliz para mí porque me encanta traer a esta parte de la creación de Dios a mi casa.
