Fr. Tomas Hurtado

Querida Comunidad de San Agustín:

¿Recuerdan qué sucedió al inicio de la pandemia del COVID 19 con algunos productos de primera necesidad? Muchos desaparecieron del mercado y las personas comenzaron a almacenarlos temiendo la escasez. ¿Qué sucede cuando estamos en plena temporada de huracanes? Las personas comienzan a almacenar comida no perecedera, agua y combustible para estar prevenidas. Basándonos en estos ejemplos, podemos comprender la parábola de Jesús en el Evangelio de este fin de semana, (Mt 25, 1 -13).

En esta ocasión, las palabras de Jesús están dirigidas a sus discípulos y nos enseñan sobre el Reino de los Cielos. Nuevamente Jesús utiliza la imagen del banquete de bodas y nos recuerda que debemos estar preparados para el mismo. En este Evangelio, San Mateo hace clara referencia a dos actitudes en nuestra vida: los que se preparan y los que no lo hacen pensando que tendrán un poco más de tiempo.

En estos momentos difíciles que estamos viviendo, muchos han profetizado que está comenzando el fin, otros muchos han asegurado que éste es el fin. Existen un sinnúmero de teorías que enfatizan y recomiendan almacenar cosas materiales para ese momento en que el Señor vendrá en gloria y majestad; pero yo creo que nuestra preparación debe ser mucho más espiritual.

Jesús lo dice claramente: “Estén pues, preparados, porque no saben ni el día ni la hora” (Mt 25, 13). Debemos estar listos siempre para encontrarnos con el Señor, no debemos esperar a la última hora, a estar en crisis o a que llegue un momento de dolor o sufrimiento a nuestra vida.

Qué bueno sería que el mismo empeño que ponemos en prepararnos materialmente, lo pusiéramos en prepararnos espiritualmente. Tenemos una comida que nunca perece y nos regala la vida eterna, Jesús. Tenemos el agua que calma la sed de nuestra alma, Jesús. Tenemos la luz que siempre ilumina las tinieblas de nuestro espíritu, Jesús.

¿Necesitamos algo más? Sí, necesitamos estar listos siempre para que nunca se nos acabe el aceite de la fe y así, con nuestras lámparas encendidas, Jesús nos diga: vengan, entren conmigo al banquete.

Dear Community of St. Augustine:

Do you remember what happened at the beginning of the COVID 19 pandemic? Many of the things we need most began to be scarce and the people started to try to accumulate them fearing they would be completely gone from the supermarkets. What happen when the hurricane season is in full swing? People begin to buy non-perishable food, water, and other essentials in great quantities to be sure they will not be deprived when a hurricane hits the place where they live. Considering these examples, it is easier to understand Jesus’ parable in the Gospel of this weekend, (Mt 25:1 -13).

In this occasion, Jesus speaks to His disciples and teaches us about the Heavenly Kingdom using again the image of the wedding banquet. In this Gospel, St. Matthew makes a clear reference to two attitudes found in our lives: the one of those who get ready for the banquet ahead of time, and that of those who do not, thinking they have plenty of time to prepare themselves.

In these difficult moments we are experiencing, many have prophesied that the end of time is beginning, while many others are sure this is the end. There are countless theories that emphasize and even recommend accumulating material things for that moment in which the Lord will come in glory and majesty, but I think that our preparation should be rather spiritual.

Jesus says it clearly: “Stay awake, for you know neither the day nor the hour” (Mt 25:13). We should be always ready to meet the Lord, we should not wait to the last minute, to have a crisis, or for pain and suffering to shake our lives.

How good would it be if the same effort we make to prepare ourselves materially, we would dedicate it to prepare ourselves spiritually. We have the food that never perishes and gives us eternal life, Jesus! We have the water that quenches the thirst of our soul, Jesus! We have the light that illuminates the darkness of our spirit, Jesus!

Do we need anything else? Yes! We need to be always ready not to run out of the oil of the faith, so that with our lamps lit Jesus will tell us come in with me to the banquet.

“Estén pues, preparados,

porque no saben ni el día ni la hora”.

Mateo 25,13

“Therefore, stay awake, for you know neither the day nor the hour.” Matthew 25:13

WHITE MASS with Bishop Noonan Saturday, November 21st| 5:00pm | Annunciation Catholic Church | 1020 Montgomery Rd., Altamonte Springs, FL Bishop John Noonan invites all to the White Mass, recognizing the ministry of those who protect life and care for the ill and dying, such as physicians, nurses, compassionate care ministers, ministers of consolation, chaplains, mental health workers, and all in the medical profession. All attending will be required to wear masks and socially distance.

Grandparent Scam Scam artists will use any leverage they can get to separate you from your money. In grandparent scams, scammers pose as panicked grandchildren in trouble, calling or sending messages urging you to wire money immediately. If someone calls or sends a message claiming to be a grandchild, other family member or friend desperate for money:

Resist the urge to act immediately – no matter how dramatic the story is.

Verify the caller’s identity. Ask questions that a stranger couldn’t possibly answer. Call a phone number for your family member or friend that you know to be genuine. Check the story out with someone else in your family or circle of friends, even if you’ve been told to keep it a secret.

Don’t send cash, gift cards, or money transfers – once the scammer gets the money, it’s gone!

Don’t answer the phone from an unknown number – If it is important, they will leave a voice mail.

Do trust your instincts. If something doesn’t feel right, it probably isn’t.

If you think that you have been involved in a fraud or know of someone who might be, contact your local law enforcement. If you aren’t sure, and have questions, contact law enforcement.

PROTECT YOURSELF

FROM SCAMS PROTÉJASE DE

LAS ESTAFAS

La Estafa de Abuelos Los estafadores utilizarán cualquier influencia que puedan obtener para quitarte tu dinero. En las estafas de abuelos, los estafadores se hacen pasar por nietos en pánico y en problemas, llamándote o enviándote mensajes instándote a enviar dinero de inmediato.

Si alguien llama o envía un mensaje afirmando ser un nieto, otro miembro de la familia o un amigo desesperado por dinero:

Resista la tentación de actuar de inmediato—sin importar cuán dramática sea la historia.

Verifica la identidad de la persona que llama. Haz preguntas que un extraño no podría responder. Llame a un número de teléfono de su familiar o amigo que sepa que es genuino. Consulte la historia con alguien más de su familia o círculo de amigos, incluso si le han dicho que lo mantenga en secreto.

No envíe dinero en efectivo, tarjetas de regalo ni transferencias de dinero—una vez que el estafador recibe el dinero, ¡se pierde!

No conteste el teléfono de un número desconocido— si es importante, dejarán un mensaje de voz.

Confíe en sus instintos. Si sospecha de que algo no está bien, probablemente lo sea.

Si cree que ha estado involucrado en un fraude o conoce a alguien que podría estarlo, comuníquese con la policía local. Si no está seguro y tiene preguntas, comuníquese con la policía.
