1 January 22, 2017 Third Sunday in Ordinary Time St. Joseph Church, 7240 W. 57th St., Summit, Illinois Jesus said to St. Peter and St. Andrew, Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.

2 Fr. Bob s Briefs Last week in the Gospel, we heard the events surrounding the Baptism of Jesus at the Jordan River. Following His Baptism by John in the Jordan, Jesus goes into the desert wilderness for forty days to be tempted. After fasting and praying in the desert and being tempted by the devil for forty days, Jesus hears about the imprisonment of John the Baptist. When Jesus hears that John was cast into prison, Jesus departed into Galilee to begin His public ministry. In today s Gospel at Mass, Matthew relays to us how Jesus begins His public ministry. As he was walking by the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon who is called Peter, and his brother Andrew, casting a net into the sea; they were fishermen. He said to them, "Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men." At once they left their nets and followed him. The Italian artist Giorgio Vasari ( ) beautifully illustrates today s Gospel story in his painting Calling St. Peter and St. Andrew. In his painting, Vasari depicts Jesus in the left side of the scene. Vasari shows Jesus importance by making Christ the largest figure in the painting. Jesus is larger than half the height of the painting. Jesus stretches out his left hand towards two fishermen, St. Peter and St. Andrew, a gesture of invitation, as He calls these two brothers to follow Him. Distinguishing Peter and Andrew is not particularly clear. From the Gospel of Matthew today, we read that Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, was casting a net into the sea. As the sentence in structured, in the Scriptures, the person who is casting the net is Peter, so it is reasonable to suppose that the center figure holding the net in the water in Vasari s picture is St. Peter. St. Andrew, therefore, would be the figure on the right of the image, holding the long wooden pole, and guiding the boat closer to Jesus. Moreover, the close physical proximity of the center figure to Jesus hand could also be an indication that this person is St. Peter, since this physical closeness may represent St. Peter s preeminence and primacy among Jesus Twelve Apostles. We read in the Gospel, that after Jesus says to Peter and Andrew, Follow me, they straight away left their nets and followed Him. Notice how Saints Peter and Andrew followed Jesus immediately, without seeing Him do anything yet. Writing on this Gospel passage, St. Gregory the Great writes, Peter and Andrew had seen Christ work no miracle, had heard from Him no word of the promise of eternal reward, yet at this single bidding of the Lord, they followed Him. Do we do this in our life? Do we follow the example of Peter and Andrew? How many of us have heard our family members, friends, neighbors, coworkers, or even ourselves say, I need to see it to believe it or I need to see a sign or a miracle first before I believe and follow God. What Peter and Andrew do is not what we typically do in our lives, especially regarding God and faith. Peter and Andrew believed first, without seeing any actions of Jesus or hearing any of Jesus words. Yet, very often, we are different than these two men. We want to see God s actions and hear God s words first, and then believe in God. Peter and Andrew in today s Gospel show us the primacy of belief in life, especially belief in God. Belief in God means openness to God in one s life. Belief, openness to God, means that I allow God to control my life, and I allow God s will to be done in my life. Belief, openness to God, means that I give my life totally to God, whether life is good or bad, easy or difficult. Peter and Andrew opened themselves to Jesus first. They allowed Jesus to control their life; they allowed Jesus will to be done. All without seeing any signs, miracles or hearing any words of Jesus. All too often, we are the opposite. We want signs, miracles, and words first, then believe. The Scriptures today want us to become more like Peter and Andrew, who believed first, and opened their lives totally to God. January 23 is the Day of Prayer for the Legal Protection of Unborn Children. Please pray for the end of abortion and greater respect for the dignity of human life. May the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of Good Help, help us with her maternal care, and St. Joseph pray for us. Vivat Jesus! Live Jesus!

3 Informes del Padre Bob La semana pasada en el Evangelio, escuchamos los acontecimientos que rodearon el Bautismo de Jesús en el río Jordán. Después de su Bautismo por Juan en el Jordán, Jesús entra en el desierto durante cuarenta días para ser tentado. Después de ayunar y orar en el desierto y ser tentado por el diablo durante cuarenta días, Jesús escucha sobre el encarcelamiento de Juan el Bautista. Cuando Jesús escucha que Juan ha sido encarcelado, Jesús partió a Galilea para comenzar su ministerio público. En el Evangelio de hoy en la misa, Mateo nos relata cómo Jesús comienza su ministerio público. "Mientras caminaba por el mar de Galilea, vio a dos hermanos, Simón, llamado Pedro, y a su hermano Andrés, que lanzaban una red en el mar; eran pescadores. Él les dijo: "Venid en pos de mí, y os haré pescadores de hombres". Enseguida dejaron sus redes y lo siguieron. El artista italiano Giorgio Vasari ( ) ilustra maravillosamente la historia del Evangelio de hoy en su pintura Llamando a San Pedro y San Andrés. En su pintura, Vasari representa a Jesús en el lado izquierdo de la escena. Vasari muestra la importancia de Jesús haciendo a Cristo la figura más grande en la pintura. Jesús es más grande que la mitad de la altura de la pintura. Jesús extiende su mano izquierda hacia dos pescadores, San Pedro y San Andrés, un gesto de invitación, como Él llama a estos dos hermanos para que lo sigan. Distinguir a Pedro y Andrés no es particularmente claro. Hoy leemos del Evangelio de Mateo, que "Simón llamado Pedro, y Andrés su hermano, estaba echando una red en el mar." Como la oración en estructurada, en las Escrituras, la persona que está echando la red es Pedro, así es razonable suponer que la figura central que sostiene la red en el agua en la foto de Vasari es San Pedro. San Andrés, por lo tanto, sería la figura a la derecha de la imagen, sosteniendo el largo palo de madera, y guiando el barco más cerca de Jesús. Además, la proximidad física cercana de la figura del centro a la mano de Jesús también podría ser una indicación de que esta persona es San Pedro, ya que esta cercanía física puede representar la preeminencia y primacía de San Pedro entre los Doce Apóstoles de Jesús. Leemos en el Evangelio que después de que Jesús le dijo a Pedro y a Andrés: "Síganme", dejaron inmediatamente sus redes y le siguieron. Observe cómo los santos Pedro y Andrés siguieron a Jesús inmediatamente, sin verle hacer nada todavía. Escribiendo sobre este pasaje evangélico, San Gregorio Magno escribe: "Pedro y Andrés no habían visto a Cristo obrar milagros, no habían oído de Él palabra alguna de la promesa de la recompensa eterna; " Hacemos esto en nuestra vida? Seguimos el ejemplo de Pedro y Andrés? Cuántos de nosotros hemos escuchado a nuestros familiares, amigos, vecinos, compañeros de trabajo, o incluso a nosotros mismos decir: "Necesito verlo para creerlo o necesito ver un signo o un milagro antes de creer y seguir a Dios". Lo que hicieron Pedro y Andrés no es lo que normalmente hacemos en nuestras vidas, especialmente con respecto a Dios y la fe. Pedro y Andrés creyeron primero, sin ver ninguna acción de Jesús ni escuchar ninguna de las palabras de Jesús. Sin embargo, muy a menudo, somos diferentes de estos dos hombres. Queremos ver las acciones de Dios y escuchar las palabras de Dios primero, y luego creer en Dios. Pedro y Andrés en el Evangelio de hoy nos muestran la primacía de la creencia en la vida, especialmente la creencia en Dios. La creencia en Dios significa apertura a Dios en la vida de uno. La creencia, la apertura a Dios, significa que dejo que Dios controle mi vida, y permito que la voluntad de Dios sea hecha en mi vida. La creencia, la apertura a Dios, significa que doy mi vida totalmente a Dios, si la vida es buena o mala, fácil o difícil. Pedro y Andrés se abrieron a Jesús primero. Ellos permitieron que Jesús controlara su vida; Permitieron que se hiciera la voluntad de Jesús. Todos sin ver señales, milagros ni escuchar ninguna palabra de Jesús. Con demasiada frecuencia, somos lo contrario. Primero queremos señales, milagros y palabras, luego creemos. Las Escrituras hoy quieren que nos volvamos más como Pedro y Andrés, que creyeron primero y abrieron sus vidas totalmente a Dios. El 23 de enero es el Día de Oración por la Protección Legal de los Niños No Nacidos. Por favor oren por el fin del aborto y un mayor respeto por la dignidad de la vida humana. Que la Santísima Virgen María, Madre de la Buena Ayuda, nos ayude con su cuidado materno, y San José ruega por nosotros. Vivat Jesus! Viva Jesús!

4 Z biurka Ks. Proboszcza Zeszłotygodniowa Ewangelia dotyczyła Chrztu Pańskiego w rzece Jordan. Jezus wyrusza na pustynię, gdzie przez czterdzieści dni pości i jest kuszony przez Szatana. Później słyszy o uwięzieniu Jana Chrzciciela i udaje się do Galilei, aby rozpocząć działalność wśród ludzi. Właśnie o tym opowiada dzisiejszy fragment z Ewangelii według świętego Mateusza (4:18-20): Gdy [Jezus] przechodził obok Jeziora Galilejskiego, ujrzał dwóch braci: Szymona, zwanego Piotrem, i brata jego, Andrzeja, jak zarzucali sieć w jezioro; byli bowiem rybakami. I rzekł do nich: Pójdźcie za Mną, a uczynię was rybakami ludzi. Oni natychmiast zostawili sieci i poszli za Nim. XVI-wieczny włoski artysta, Giorgio Vasari, wspaniale oddaje ten fragment w swoim obrazie pod tytułem: Powołanie świętych Piotra i Andrzeja. Jezus ukazany jest po lewej stronie obrazu Vasariego. Jako że Jezus jest najważniejszy, Jego postać jest tu największa zajmuje ponad połowę wysokości obrazu. Pan gestem zaprasza dwóch braci-rybaków: Piotra i Andrzeja, aby podążyli za Nim. Trudno rozpoznać na obrazie, który z braci to Piotr, a który Andrzej. Z Ewangelii dowiadujemy się: ujrzał dwóch braci: Szymona, zwanego Piotrem, i brata jego, Andrzeja, jak zarzucali sieć w jezioro. Bazując na sposobie, w jaki ten fragment został napisany, można wnioskować, że osobą zarzucającą sieć na obrazie jest właśnie św. Piotr. Świętym Andrzejem będzie wobec tego osoba stojąca po prawej stronie obrazu i trzymająca długą tyczkę, którą kieruje łódź w stronę Jezusa. To, jak blisko ręki Pana znajduje się święty Piotr, może również wskazywać na jego pierwszeństwo w grupie Dwunastu Apostołów. Jezus mówi Piotrowi i Andrzejowi: Idźcie za Mną. Oni zaś natychmiast porzucają rybackie sieci i idą za Nim nie wiedząc jeszcze, co Jezus potrafi. Dokładnie o tym pisze święty Grzegorz Wielki w swoim komentarzu do tego fragmentu: Chrystus jeszcze nie dokonał żadnego cudu na Ich oczach; nie obiecał im też życia wiecznego wystarczyło jedno Jego słowo, aby święci Piotr i Andrzej podążyli za Nim. Czy bierzemy przykład z Piotra i Andrzeja na co dzień? Jak często słyszymy z ust bliskich: Jak zobaczę, to uwierzę? Przeważnie najpierw oczekujemy od Boga jakiegoś znaku, który utwierdziłby nas w wierze. Piotr i Andrzej postępują zupełnie na odwrót. Obaj święci pokazują nam, iż pierwszeństwo w życiu powinna mieć wiara, zwłaszcza wiara w Boga. Wierzyć w Boga oznacza być otwartym na Jego działanie w naszym życiu. Wierząc, daję Bogu przyzwolenie na kontrolowanie moich poczynań. Pragnę również, aby w moim życiu spełniła się Jego wola. Wierzyć w Boga znaczy całkowicie Mu się poddać, niezależnie od życiowych okoliczności. Piotr i Andrzej od początku otworzyli się na Jezusa; pozwolili, aby w całości kontrolował ich życie; pozwolili na to, aby spełniła się Jego wola. Nie wymagali przy tym od Jezusa żadnych deklaracji, ani cudów. Często jednak tak nie jest. Naszą wiarę uzależniamy od dowodów w postaci słów albo cudów. Dzisiaj zachęca się nas do brania przykładu ze świętych Piotra i Andrzeja, którzy od samego początku całkowicie otworzyli się na Boga. 23 stycznia przypada Dzień modlitw w intencji prawnej ochrony dzieci nienarodzonych. Módlmy się o kres aborcji oraz większe poszanowanie godności ludzkiego życia. Święta Maryjo, Matko Nieustającej Pomocy, miej nas zawsze w Swej opiece. Święty Józefie, módl się za nami. Vivat Iesus! Chwała Jezusowi!
