29th Sunday in Ordinary Time TOO MUCH INFORMATION! There is a common expression: “Too much information!” We usually use it when people tell us details about their lives that we don’t want or need to know. Today, when James and John ask Jesus a simple question, making their request for places of honor in the kingdom, a simple answer might have been in order. Instead, as he often does, Jesus answers a question with a question; today it’s about drinking the cup of suffering. Then, once the others are indignant over James and John’s outrageous request, he proceeds to give them what may have been “too much information” for followers who were simply interested in the pursuit of glory. But this information, though it can sometimes seem “too much” for us, is essential for our lives as disciples. In Isaiah, in Hebrews, and in Mark today, we learn this information. It is in suffering, in weakness, in self-giving service to others, that we come to understand the kingdom. It is the information we need to find our place and come to be honored in the reign of God.

TODAY’S READINGS First Reading - My servant shall justify many, and their guilt he shall bear (Isaiah 53:10-11). Psalm - Lord, let your mercy be on us, as we place our trust in you (Psalm 33). Second Reading - Let us confidently approach the throne of grace to receive mercy and to find grace for timely help (Hebrews 4:14-16). Gospel - Whoever wishes to be first among you will be the slave of all (Mark 10:35-45 [42-45]).

St. Dominic Savio He is the patron saint of our Parish. He is a saint at nearly 15 years of age. He was educated by St. John Bosco (a.k.a. Don Bosco) at the Oratory of St. Francis

de Sales. For St. Dominic Savio, holiness consists of always being cheerful and of doing one’s ordinary duties, extraordinarily well. His Feast Day is on May 6.

XXIX Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario DEMASIADA INFORMACIÓN PARA MI GUSTO Existe una expresión de uso corriente: “Demasiada información para mi gusto”. Generalmente decimos esto cuando alguien nos da detalles sobre su vida que no deseamos o no necesitamos saber. Hoy, cuando Santiago y Juan le hacen una pregunta simple a Jesús y le piden ocupar lugares de honor en el Reino, Jesús podría haberles dado una respuesta simple. Pero, como suele hacerlo, responde una pregunta con otra pregunta, en este caso se trata de beber el cáliz del sufrimiento. Luego, cuando los demás se indignan contra el atrevido pedido de Santiago y Juan, Jesús les dice algo que puede haber sido “demasiada información” para el gusto de los seguidores, quienes sólo estaban interesados en alcanzar la gloria. Pero esta información, aunque algunas veces pueda parecer “demasiada” para nuestro gusto, es vital para nuestras vidas como discípulos. Hoy en Isaías, en hebreos y en Marcos, conocemos esta información: sólo mediante el sufrimiento, la debilidad y el servicio generoso a los demás comprenderemos el Reino. Ésta es la información que necesitamos para encontrar nuestro lugar y poder ser honrados en el Reino de Dios. Copyright © J. S. Paluch

JESUS SAID TO THEM, “THE CUP THAT I DRINK, YOU WILL DRINK, AND WITH THE BAPTISM WITH WHICH I AM BAPTIZED, YOU WILL BE

BAPTIZED; BUT TO SIT AT MY RIGHT OR AT MY LEFT IS NOT MINE TO GIVE BUT FOR THOSE FOR WHOM IT HAS BEEN PREPARED.”

PROTECTING OUR CHILDREN Did you know? BE A TRUSTED RESOURCE IF A CHILD DISCLOSES ABUSE Parents are in a unique position to know about not only their own children, but their children’s friends. If you are a trusted parent, your child’s friend may come to you with secrets. What do you do if a child tells you about abuse? As an adult, it’s critical that you remain calm, and don’t overreact. Child victims are often frightened and confused, and your confusion and anger does not help their situation. Your concern and support, however, will affirm the child in important ways and can help begin the healing process for a child victim who has suffered at the hands of a predator. To learn more about steps to take if a child tells you about abuse, email jvienna@la-archdiocese.org.

¿Sabia Que? SEA UN RECURSO CONFIABLE SI UN NIÑO REVELA ABUSO Los padres de familia se encuentran en una posición única para conocer no sólo a sus propios hijos, sino también a los amigos de sus hijos. Si usted es un padre confiable, el amigo de su hijo puede acercarse a usted con secretos. ¿Qué hace usted si un niño le cuenta sobre un abuso? Como adulto, es fundamental que permanezca calmada y no reaccione de forma exagerada. Las víctimas infantiles a menudo están asustadas y confundidas, y su confusión y enojo no ayudan a la situación. Su preocupación y apoyo, sin embargo, reafirmarán al niño de maneras importantes y pueden ayudar a comenzar el proceso de sanación de un niño víctima que ha sufrido bajo las manos de un depredador. Para obtener más información sobre los pasos a seguir si un niño le cuenta sobre el abuso, envíe un correo electrónico a jvienna@la-archdiocese.org.
