Paroquianos comemoram Aniversário de Padre Juan Carlos

Com uma celebração eucarística, presidida pelo aniversariante, na Capela Menino Deus, pertencente

à Paróquia São João Eudes, no bairro Luciano Cavalcante, auxiliado pelo padre Luís Gabriel, e um jantar-adesão na Casa de Formação dos “Eudistas”, paroquianos e amigos do padre Juan Carlos comemoraram, na noite de ontem, dia 29 de setembro, o seu aniversário.

 

AGRADECEU

O pároco Luís Gabriel, depois da Missa, agradeceu a Deus por ter um padre Juan Carlos como sacerdote e ainda mais servindo na sua paróquia, com o aniversariante também agradecendo a Deus e a Nossa Senhora por aquele momento.

 

O padre Juan Carlos era todo alegria, devido à presença de sua genitora, dona Maria Magola que, juntamente com as senhoras Maria Tomasa e Maria Narosa, mãe dos padres Luís Gabriel e Johnja, veio da Colômbia para uma temporada em Fortaleza e aproveitou para comemorar a data.

 

Na oportunidade, a paroquiana Olga, que faz parte da Comunidade Nossa Senhora do Perpétuo Socorro, fez um discurso exaltando o serviço que o padre Juan Carlos vem realizando na Paróquia São João Eudes.

Congrégation de Jésus et de Marie

Le pape François a réuni des centaines de milliers de jeunes à Cracovie cet été. Il a prononcé des paroles de réveil :

« Le temps qu’aujourd’hui nous vivons n’a pas besoin de « jeunes-divan », mais de jeunes avec des chaussures, mieux encore, chaussant des crampons. Cette époque n’accepte que des joueurs titulaires sur le terrain, il n’y a pas de place pour des réservistes. Le monde d’aujourd’hui vous demande d’être des protagonistes de l’histoire, parce que la vie est belle à condition que nous voulions la vivre, à condition que nous voulions y laisser une empreinte. L’histoire aujourd’hui nous demande de défendre notre dignité et de ne pas permettre que ce soient d’autres qui décident de notre avenir » (veillée du 30 juillet).

Ces paroles sont aussi pour nous !

Allons de l’avant avec les moyens qui sont les nôtres aujourd’hui. Est-ce que notre situation présente est en dehors de la volonté de Dieu ? N’est-il pas au courant de ce que nous vivons ? Le piège est grand de se regarder plutôt que d’entendre le sifflet de l’arbitre : allons sur le terrain, avec nos crampons, avec nos capacités, avec la fierté de notre équipe Eudiste ! Et plus encore avec saint Jean Eudes, notre coach qui intercède pour nous, qui accompagne nos missions et suscite de nouveaux joueurs !

Comme saint Jean Eudes, gardons les yeux sur la miséricorde de Jésus : « Que nous n'ayons aucun appui sur nos forces, ni sur tout ce qui est de nous; mais que toute notre confiance soit en votre seule bonté. » (OC I 302)

Retiro anual para los AACE de Francia

Del viernes 30 de septiembre por la noche al domingo 2 de octubre por la tarde, unos 30 AACE se encontraron en La Roche du Theil para su retiro anual predicado por el P. Jean-Michel Amouriaux sobre el tema : “Bienaventurados los llamados a entrar en la Vida”. A partir de “los Coloquios interiores” de San Juan Eudes el P. Amouriaux nos hizo tomar conciencia de la vida que Dios nos ha dado y de sus llamadas : llamada a la vida, a la comunión y a la santidad.

 

 

Fortalecidos por estos días en los que el grupo compartió momentos de fraternidad y de amistad, todos volvieron a sus distintos lugares de vida con el corazón lleno de paz y de alegría.

28th Sunday in Ordinary Time year C

by: Bro. Josh Fernandez

Jesus’ journey to Jerusalem, passing through Samaria and Galilee, allowed him to encounter different kinds of people with various diseases. It was highlighted by the ten lepers who approached him from a distance and asked him to have pity on them. However, Jesus told them to show themselves to the priest rather without touching them for healing. Then, as the ten lepers went on their way, they found that they were all cured. It was their faith that healed them. This is somehow parallel to the healing of the paralytic in Luke (Chapter 5:20) as Jesus told him “your sin is forgiven.” Similarly, no laying of hands, touching or praying. The paralytic just stood up and walk. Both the ten lepers and the paralytic testifies that Jesus is truly the source of life and the life giver.

The focus of our life’s journey is not just about reaching the point of our destination, it is not just about how fast we move to reach our goal in life, and it is not just about a race to the finish line. It is all about “mercy” in encountering different kinds of people in our day-to-day living. During our own journey and experience in life, to how many people in need have we extended our help? Did we just ignore them and continue with our life’s journey or simply not bothered with them? Or sometimes do we find ourselves walking on the same side of the road like the Priest and the Levite who avoided the wounded Samaritan lying half-dead on the road?

Our life is so full of obscurity that we cannot hear the subtle voice of God, and at other times we are fully occupied by so many things that we cannot understand the need of other people around us. Oftentimes we just ignore them because they are a distraction to our work, ministry or sometimes an obstruction to our academic achievement. The moment we fill our head with various activities and achievement, is also the moment we become unconscious and insensitive to the need of others around us. We become consumed with being the centre of attention and we long for praises when it comes to our achievements. The more we would like to achieve our goal, the more we overload ourselves, and the more we experience imbalance in our lives and are unable to meet the needs of the people around us.

Jesus’ consciousness towards others during his journey is a sign of mercy and compassion. Jesus knows and sees through his own eyes the need of others, their sufferings and agony. Jesus did not ask what the ten lepers wanted but Jesus’ consciousness and sensitivity toward the ten lepers made him aware of what to do and what to say to heal them. Likewise, our own consciousness and sensitivity will make us aware of showing our empathy towards others even strangers whom we encounter outside. The empathy we can practice in our daily lives is a relatively simple process but it constitutes mercy in many ways. Mercy means being generous to others rather than being stingy, mercy means being a good companion rather than an opponent, mercy means being a helper rather than an achiever for own selves, mercy means being aware rather than ignorant of the need of others.

The gospel reminds us that awareness leads us to sensitivity and mercy just like Jesus being consciously aware of everything even though it was difficult for him to trod upon the road on his journey to Jerusalem. We too are being called and challenged to imitate the awareness of Jesus, his sensitivity, his mercy and his compassion to listen to the voices of the people who are in dire need.

Our Elders Are Lonely, Do We Care?

By Mary Rezac

Denver, Colo., Sep 25, 2016 / 04:02 pm (CNA/EWTN News).-It was August in Rome, the dog days of summer, and most people had left the Eternal City for the beach or another summer holiday destination.

It happens every year, essentially slowing the city to a crawl for a good two weeks or more. It can be a lonely time, especially for the elderly who no longer travel.

That’s when, on August 2, Italian police discovered Jole, 89, and Michele, 94, a couple living in the Appio neighborhood of Rome. Feeling particularly lonely, having had no visitors for some time, the couple’s sobs became so loud that concerned neighbors called the police, who found no crime on their arrival, just two very lonely people.

Besides offering medical assistance, the police decided to offer some comfort as well.

“They improvised a cozy dinner. A plate of pasta with butter and cheese. Nothing special. But with a special ingredient: Inside, there is all their humanity,” the Facebook post from the Italian police says.

Sadly, the problem of loneliness among the elderly is not just confined to the summer holidays in Rome - it is a growing problem around the world.

Earlier this month, Katie Hafner for the New York Times reported that in Britain and the United States, roughly one in three people older than 65 live alone. In the United States, half of those older than 85 live alone. Studies in both countries show the prevalence of loneliness among people older

than 60 ranging from 10 percent to 46 percent.

While not a physical sickness in and of itself, chronic loneliness can also be detrimental to physical health. Several studies show that social isolation or feelings of loneliness can lead to an increased risk for heart disease, high blood pressure, stroke and even an earlier death.

Sr. Constance Veit, communications director for the Little Sisters of the Poor, an order of Catholic sisters whose mission is “to offer the neediest elderly of every race and religion a home where they will be welcomed as Christ, cared for as family and accompanied with dignity until God calls them to himself.” They currently operate more than 25 homes for the elderly in the United States, as well as homes all over the world.

A la découverte de Saint Jean Eudes

En arrivant à l’établissement saint Jean Hulst en classe de 6ème, deux défis se présentent pour ces jeunes :

• Faire cohésion, former l’unité de la promotion de 6ème alors que seulement un tiers vienne de l’école primaire st Jean Hulst,

• Découvrir saint Jean Eudes et la Congrégation des Eudistes.

Afin d’y parvenir, les 370 sixièmes sont partis à Jambville, propriété appartenant aux Scouts de France, le vendredi 16 septembre 2016. Partagés en deux groupes, l’un se consacrant à des activités sportives, l’autre à connaître saint Jean Eudes sur une demi-journée (et on inverse pour l’après-midi), tous se sont retrouvés à 15h sous un grand chapiteau afin de célébrer l’eucharistie.

 

Ce fut une journée inoubliable où la joie, la gaîté se lisaient sur tous les visages. Saint Jean Eudes reste une figure qui marque les jeunes enfants, en particulier lors de ses expériences avec les pestiférés. Que ce saint normand demeure bien présent dans le cœur de chaque jeune.
