Today’s Gospel culminates the
missionary discourse from which we
heard a passage last week. Matthew wants
to make clear to the followers of Jesus
that the cross is central to discipleship.
For a community such as Matthew’s that
had already experienced persecution, this teaching was
critically important. Related to this sense of solidarity between
disciple and Master was the notion that one honors the
presence of the Master in the disciple. This viewpoint was
common in the culture of the time, but Matthew gives it
theological weight by tying in the notion of reward for those
who honor one of Christ’s disciples. The simplest act of
practical kindness, “a cup of cold water” given to a disciple, is
cause for a reward (Matthew 10:42).
The Christian idea that Jesus is present in his disciples can
also be seen in today’s second reading from Saint Paul’s letter
to the Romans. Paul is teaching about Baptism. His use of
prepositions is highly suggestive: “baptized into . . . buried
with . . . died with . . . live with . . . living for God in Christ
Jesus” (6:3, 4, 8, 11). Paul evokes the experience of Baptism
and links it to Jesus’ experience of going down into the earth
in his tomb, only to rise up out of the earth “in newness of
life” (6:4). His point is to emphasize the solidarity that exists
between Master and disciples.
Question of the Week
In reflecting on the sacrifices and rewards of Christian
discipleship, what sacrifice do you think God is asking of you
today? What reward do you think will make it worthwhile?
El Evangelio de hoy es la culminación del
discurso misionero del cual leímos un
pasaje la semana pasada. Mateo quiere
dejarles claro a los discípulos de Jesús que
la cruz es central en el discipulado. Para
una comunidad como la de Mateo, que ya
había experimentado la persecución, esta enseñanza tenía una
importancia vital. Este sentido de solidaridad entre el
discípulo y el Maestro estaba relacionado con la noción de que
se honra la presencia del Maestro en el discípulo. Este punto
de vista era común en la cultura de ese tiempo, pero Mateo le
da un peso teológico al vincularlo con la noción de
recompensa para aquellos que honran a un discípulo de
Cristo. La acción bondadosa más sencilla, “aunque no sea
más que un vaso de agua fría” ofrecida a un discípulo, es
motivo de recompensa (Mateo 10, 42).
El concepto cristiano de que Jesús está presente en sus
discípulos se puede también ver en la segunda lectura de hoy
tomada de la carta de san Pablo a los romanos. Pablo está
enseñando acerca del Bautismo. El uso que él hace de las
preposiciones es bien sugestivo: “incorporados a Cristo por
medio del Bautismo…sepultados con él en su muerte…hemos
muerto con Cristo… vive para Dios . . . vivos para Dios en
Cristo Jesús” (6, 3. 4. 8. 11). Pablo evoca la experiencia del
Bautismo y la vincula a la experiencia de Jesús de ser
sepultado en la tierra, para resucitar a “una vida nueva” (6, 4).
El punto de Pablo es enfatizar la solidaridad que existe entre el
Maestro y los discípulos.
Pregunta de la Semana
Al reflexionar sobre los sacrificios y las recompensas del
discipulado cristiano, ¿qué sacrificio crees que Dios te está
pidiendo hoy? ¿Qué recompensa crees que hiciera valer la
pena tal sacrificio?

Youth Programs Volunteers Wanted

On behalf of everyone at St. Jerome TMIY, we
would love to wish everyone a blessed and
safe 4th of July! Independence Day, also
referred to as July Fourth, is a holiday in the United States
commemorating the adoption of the Declaration of
Independence 241 years ago on July 4, 1776! This is the day when Americans before us stated they no
longer wanted to be told what to do and how to do it, what religion to practice, who to worship, and
how to live! This was the start of the United States of America as we know it. In observance of this
special holiday, TMIY will not be meeting. We will
reserve this time to spend with our friends and loved ones as we celebrate the very freedoms we have
grown to love and respect! TMIY will resume on Tuesday July 11th @ 6:30pm, when we will once
again be led by Mr. Wayne Pape on a voyage deep into the Apologetics. As always, bring a friend and
your appetite as we feed your belly and soul!
"As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another." Proverbs 27:17
Our winner for our Fall Adult Faith Formation class is
Mary: A Biblical Walk with the Blessed Mother .
Mary: A Biblical Walk with the Blessed Mother is an extraordinary pilgrimage
that reveals Mary's unique role in God's
Kingdom and in our lives. Filmed on
location in the Holy Land, Mary: A Biblical Walk with the Blessed Moth-
er will place you in the midst of the
powerful drama of her earthly life, taking you through her joys...and her sorrows. You
will learn how she works in our lives today, draw-ing us ever closer to her Divine Son. Seeing Mary in
this way will change you forever. Mary will become a part of your daily life, and in your daily life, you
will become more like Christ.
Class will begin on September 11, 2017.
We will be offering two sessions,
a morning and an evening class.
Monday September 11 at 6:30 pm
Tuesday September 12 at 9:00 am
