huck Schisla is a friend who lives in Indianapolis. We were Directors of Communications for different Archdioceses for many years. One of Chuck’s constant questions to me was, “will you come to Indianapolis for the running of the 500?” He would ask year after year and I would be caught doing something else each year. This year he proposed going to the 100th Anniversary of the “500” and I thought, “Hey, history is being made – I’m in.” So, last week-end I watched history being made. And it was incredible. On race day, Chuck and I were among the 370,000 people who were at the track for the 500, and as one commentator put it, if the crowd were a city, we would comprise the 57th largest city in the US. (That means larger than Grand Rapids!) But the crowd, city or not, witnessed an amazing all American event from start to finish. Never mind that it took us three hours to traverse the city and get to our parking spot the day of the race; never mind that it was hot, never mind that people in Indianapolis refuse to use the word rain all month leading up to the event because one rain drop can cancel the race. All of that aside it was an amazing event. (Or did I say that already?)

Indianapolis is a mid-western, all American city. The Indianapolis 500 is a privately owned business. The combination seems to bring out a deep sense of patriotism in the crowd. I sat dutifully in my seat (at the first turn where much of the skill of the drivers is tested) trying to take it all in. There was not one harsh word being heard by the 370,000 people. The incivility of our current political discourse was nowhere to be found. Beautiful! There was great music – the Purdue Band working with the Indianapolis Children’s Choir while a young black man with a magnificent voice joined his brothers and sisters singing America the Beautiful. An army sergeant playing the most soulful taps I’ve ever heard. A young black country singer doing the national anthem with everyone heeding the call, “Please stand and remove your hats.” The Archbishop of Indianapolis doing the invocation with a prayer that God would keep all in the cars and the pits safe, and reminding us all of the great gifts that God gives us in each other, and getting the loudest ‘Amen’ from a crowd that I’ve ever heard. There were the honored heroes, still alive, with front row seats who as servicemen had survived Pearl Harbor soon to be 75 years in our country’s rear view mirror. Two planes that had flown in World War II flew over, soon to be followed from four full throated Air Force Jets doing a fly by. A pause for “Back Home Again in Indiana", a song I had heard many times in the presence of Archbishop Borders in the years I worked with him as the Archdiocese of Baltimore’s Director of Communications. The Archbishop grew up in Indiana. And then all the members of the families who owned the track, stood together and with one voice announced, “Lady and gentlemen, start your engines.” Two hundred laps of 2.5 miles a lap and the Indianapolis 500 for 2016 would be history. A rookie driver, an American Alexander Rossi was the winner. It was a fitting conclusion to an exhilarating day.

Counters: Team 1 will be counting this week.

Change, Change, Change! As you may know, the Paulist Fathers minister in many different places in the United States. The missionary aspect of Paulist life means that Paulist priests move to different missions across the country somewhat regularly. This past week Bishop Walkowiak acknowledged Paulist President Father Eric Andrews recommendations for the Paulist Ministries here in West Michigan. Fathers Rene Constanza and Bill Edens will be joining the Paulist mission in West Michigan in July. Many of you remember Fr. Rene; he completed his student internship in Grand Rapids and returned to celebrate Mass for the community shortly after his ordination in 2012. Fr. Bill will be coming to us from Portland, OR. where he was effective in a ministry to young adults. Both Father Rene and Father Bill are bilingual. Fr. Rene will become Director of the Catholic Information Center as well as performing priestly duties at the Cathedral. Fr. Bill will be the Associate Pastor of the Cathedral. Fr. Geaney has been reappointed as Rector and Pastor of the Cathedral as well as superior of the Paulists in West Michigan. Father G will become Director Emeritus of the CIC. As many are aware, Father Marcos will be heading to Florida to join the Paulist preaching apostolate. Father Bernie will also be joining the preaching apostolate but residing in New York. Father Brad Schoeberle was reappointed for a year as pastor to St. Luke in Allendale, and Father Chuck Cunniff will continue at GVSU and St. Luke. Let's pray that all will go according to the inspiration of the Spirit for all who are involved in these transitions.

(Founder of the Paulists) “This exposition of the interior life will be an integral point of their mission, In this way the spiritual life will receive a rational interpretation, and the note of sanctity will receive a more complete expression. For the general work of the priesthood is to place sinners in the way of salvation; but their special mission is to open the way for them and for all Christians to Christian perfection” [On the Mission of New Religious Communities, 1876]

huck Schisla es un amigo que vive en Indianápolis. Durante muchos años los dos éramos Directores de Comunicación para diferentes Arquidiócesis. Una de las preguntas constantes de Chuck para mí fue: "¿quieres venir a Indianápolis para el funcionamiento de la 500?". Me pedía este año tras año y siempre cada año resultó que tenía otras cosas que tenía hacer. Este año le propuso ir al 100 aniversario de la "Indianápolis 500" y pensé, "¡Pensando que este año iba a ser historia en ciernes!" Así, el pasado fin de semana, vi que se hizo historia y fue increíble. El día de la carrera, Chuck y yo estaban entre las 370.000 personas que se encontraban en la pista de carreras para el 500, y como un comentarista lo dijo, si el público fuera una ciudad, se comprendería la 57ª ciudad más grande en los EE.UU. (Esto significa mayor que Grand Rapids.) Pero la multitud, ciudad o no, fueron testigos de un increíble evento Americano de principio a fin. No importa que nos tomó tres horas para atravesar la ciudad y llegar a nuestro lugar de estacionamiento el día de la carrera; No importa que estaba caliente, no importa que la gente en Indianápolis rechazan el uso de la palabra lluvia durante todo el mes previo al evento debido a una gota de lluvia puede cancelar la carrera. Aparte de todo eso, fue un evento increíble. (¿He dicho ya?) Indianápolis es una ciudad toda americana del medio-oeste. El Indianápolis 500 es una empresa de propiedad privada. La combinación parece poner de manifiesto un profundo sentido de patriotismo en la multitud. Me senté en mi asiento obedientemente (en la primera curva, donde se prueba un gran parte de la habilidad de los conductores) tratando de asimilarlo todo. No hubo palabras duras siendo dichos oído entre de las 370.000 personas. La falta de cortesía de nuestro discurso político actual estaba por ningún lado. ¡Qué agradable! Hubo buena música: La Banda de Purdue y el Coro de Niños de Indianápolis junto con un joven negro, con una voz magnífica, se unió a sus hermanos y hermanas cantando America the Beautiful (América, La Hermosa). Un sargento del ejército que juega los grifos en manera más emotiva que he oído en mi vida. Un joven negro cantante de ranchera haciendo el himno nacional con todo el mundo hacer caso a la llamada, "Por favor, ponerse de pie y quitarse los sombreros". El Arzobispo de Indianápolis haciendo la invocación con una oración para que Dios mantenga todos, en los coches y los hoyos, de seguro y recordarnos a todos de los grandes regalos que Dios nos da en uno en el otro y que consiguen el más ruidoso 'Amén' a partir de una multitud que he oído en mi vida. Fueron los héroes honrados, aún con vida, en los asientos de primera fila que como militares habían sobrevivido a Pearl Harbor pronto a ser 75 años en el espejo retrovisor de nuestro país. Dos aviones que habían volado en la Segunda Guerra Mundial sobrevolaron, que pronto será seguido de cuatro aviones de toda velocidad de la Fuerza Aérea pasaron volando. Tomaron una pausa para cantar "Back Home Again In Indiana”, una canción que había escuchado muchas veces en presencia del arzobispo de fronteras en los años que trabajé con él como el Director de Comunicaciones de la Arquidiócesis de Baltimore. El arzobispo creció en Indiana. Y entonces todos los miembros de las familias propietarias de la pista, se unieron y con una sola voz anunció, "La dama y caballeros, enciendan sus motores". Doscientos vueltas de 2,5 millas por vuelta y la Indianápolis 500 para el 2016 serían historia. Un conductor novato, un estadounidense Alexander Rossi fue el ganador. Fue un final adecuado para un día emocionante.

Fr. John Geaney, CSP

Leer una porción de la encíclica del Papa Francisco en la Alegría del Amor cada semana a través de esta serie de verano.

Capitulo primero A LA LUZ DE LA PALABRA Tus hijos como brotes de olivo 14. Retomemos el canto del Salmista. Allí aparecen, dentro de la casa donde el hombre y su esposa están sentados a la mesa, los hijos que los acompañan «como brotes de olivo» (Sal 128,3), es decir, llenos de energía y de vitalidad. Si los padres son como los fundamentos de la casa, los hijos son como las «piedras vivas» de la familia (cf. 1 P 2,5). Es significativo que en el Antiguo Testamento la palabra que aparece más veces después de la divina (yhwh, el «Señor») es «hijo» (ben), un vocablo que remite al verbo hebreo que significa «construir» (banah). Por eso, en el Salmo 127 se exalta el don de los hijos con imágenes que se refieren tanto a la edificación de una casa, como a la vida social y comercial que se desarrollaba en la puerta de la ciudad: «Si el Señor no construye la casa, en vano se cansan los albañiles; la herencia que da el Señor son los hijos; su salario, el fruto del vientre: son saetas en mano de un guerrero los hijos de la juventud; dichoso el hombre que llena con ellas su aljaba: no quedará derrotado cuando litigue con su adversario en la plaza» (vv. 1.3-5). Es verdad que estas imágenes reflejan la cultura de una sociedad antigua, pero la presencia de los hijos es de todos modos un signo de plenitud de la familia en la continuidad de la misma historia de salvación, de generación en generación.

la descripción de la celebración pascual (cf. Ex 12,26-27; Dt 6,20-25), y luego fue explicitado en la haggadah judía, o sea, en la narración dialógica que acompaña el rito de la cena pascual. Más aún, un Salmo exalta el anuncio familiar de la fe: «Lo que oímos y aprendimos, lo que nuestros padres nos contaron, no lo ocultaremos a sus hijos, lo contaremos a la futura generación: las alabanzas del Señor, su poder, las maravillas que realizó. Porque él estableció una norma para Jacob, dio una ley a Israel: él mandó a nuestros padres que lo enseñaran a sus hijos, para que lo supiera la generación siguiente, y los hijos que nacieran después. Que surjan y lo cuenten a sus hijos» (Sal 78,3-6). Por lo tanto, la familia es el lugar donde los padres se convierten en los primeros maestros de la fe para sus hijos. Es una tarea artesanal, de persona a persona: «Cuando el día de mañana tu hijo te pregunte [...] le responderás…» (Ex 13,14). Así, las distintas generaciones entonarán su canto al Señor, «los jóvenes y también las doncellas, los viejos junto con los niños» (Sal 148,12). 17. Los padres tienen el deber de cumplir con seriedad su misión educadora, como enseñan a menudo los sabios bíblicos (cf. Pr 3,11-12; 6,20-22; 13,1; 29,17). Los hijos están llamados a acoger y practicar el mandamiento: «Honra a tu padre y a tu madre» (Ex 20,12), donde el verbo «honrar» indica el cumplimiento de los compromisos familiares y sociales en su plenitud, sin descuidarlos con excusas religiosas (cf. Mc 7,11-13). En efecto, «el que honra a su padre expía sus pecados, el que respeta a su madre acumula tesoros» (Si 3,3-4). 18. El Evangelio nos recuerda también que los hijos no son una propiedad de la familia, sino que tienen por delante su propio camino de vida. Si es verdad que Jesús se presenta como modelo de obediencia a sus padres terrenos, sometiéndose a ellos (cf. Lc 2,51), también es cierto que él muestra que la elección de vida del hijo y su misma vocación cristiana pueden exigir una separación para cumplir con su propia entrega al Reino de Dios (cf. Mt 10,34-37; Lc 9,59-62). Es más, él mismo a los doce años responde a María y a José que tiene otra misión más alta que cumplir más allá de su familia histórica (cf. Lc 2,48 -50). Por eso exalta la necesidad de otros lazos, muy profundos también dentro de las relaciones familiares: «Mi madre y mis hermanos son estos: los que escuchan la Palabra de Dios y la ponen por obra» (Lc 8,21). Por otra parte, en la atención que él presta a los niños —considerados en la sociedad del antiguo Oriente próximo como sujetos sin particulares derechos e incluso como objeto de posesión familiar— Jesús llega al punto de presentarlos a los adultos casi como maestros, por su confianza simple y espontánea ante los demás: «En verdad os digo que si no os convertís y os hacéis como niños, no entraréis en el reino de los cielos. Por lo tanto, el que se haga pequeño como este niño, ese es el más grande en el reino de los cielos» (Mt 18,3-4). La semana que viene... Un sendero de sufrimiento y de sangre

¡AHORRE LA FECHA!

15. Bajo esta luz podemos recoger otra dimensión de la familia. Sabemos que en el Nuevo Testamento se habla de «la iglesia que se reúne en la casa» (cf. 1 Co 16,19; Rm 16,5; Col 4,15; Flm 2). El espacio vital de una familia se podía transformar en iglesia doméstica, en sede de la Eucaristía, de la presencia de Cristo sentado a la misma mesa. Es inolvidable la escena pintada en el Apocalipsis: «Estoy a la puerta llamando: si alguien oye y me abre, entraré y comeremos juntos» (3,20). Así se delinea una casa que lleva en su interior la presencia de Dios, la oración común y, por tanto, la bendición del Señor. Es lo que se afirma en el Salmo 128 que tomamos como base: «Que el Señor te bendiga desde Sión» (v. 5).
