CATEQUÉSIS COMUNITARIA Y FAMILIAR — COMMUNITY AND FAMILY CATECHESIS

Hemos sido llamados a cargar la cruz Vigésimo-cuarto Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario Semana del 16 de septiembre del 2018 Escucha la Palabra (Marcos 8:27 – 35) Al escuchar esta lectura, ¿qué palabras o frases te llaman la atención? ¿Cómo tocan tu corazón estas palabras de Jesús? Ve tu vida Pregunta para los niños: ¿Qué significa para ti seguir los pasos de Jesús? Pregunta para los jóvenes: ¿Quién crees que es Jesús? ¿Quién es Jesús en tu vida? Pregunta para los adultos: ¿Cuál es la cruz que cargas hoy? ¿Cómo sigues a Jesús en tu lugar de trabajo y en tu hogar? Actividades para la semana Tomen estas actividades para reflexionar más: Estamos llamados a cargar nuestras cruces. Para la oración de esta semana, reúna a los miembros de la familia en un círculo. Si tienen un crucifijo, pásenlo alrededor del círculo. Si no tienen un cru-cifijo o una cruz, hagan uno. Explique: “Cuando te toque sostener la cruz, ora en voz baja por la fuerza de cargar tu propia cruz. Mientras esperas para sostener la cruz, ora en silencio por quien está sosten-iendo la cruz”. Para ayudar a tu familia a entender qué significa seguir los pasos de Jesús, usa esta actividad: Quítense los zapatos y tracen uno de sus pies en una hoja de papel. Recorte el contorno del pie. Escriba dentro del pie cómo puede seguir los pasos de Jesús en el hogar, en la escuela o en el trabajo. Cuando cada miembro de la familia haya completado la actividad, coloque el pie de cada persona en el piso para formar un sendero. Reúnanse alrededor de los pasos y hablen acerca del significado de seguir los pasos de Jesús. La elección de seguir a Jesús incluye cargar su cruz. ¿Qué cruz carga hoy? ¿Cómo puede Jesús ayudarlo a cargar su cruz? Haga un cartel con su familia. Escriban las maneras en que su familia puede seguir los pasos de Jesús. Éstas son algunas sugeren-cias: Ayudarse unos a otros con las tareas del hogar. Visitar a algui-en que no pueda salir de su casa. Ser compasivos y escucharse unos a otros. Ofrecerse para ayudar en un proyecto de la parroquia para servir a los pobres.

We are called to carry the cross Twenty-fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time Week of September 16, 2018 Listen to the Word (Mark 8:27 – 35) What words or phrases strike you? How do these words of Jesus touch your own heart? Look into your life Question for children: What do think it means for you to follow in Jesus footsteps? Question for youth: Who do you say that Jesus is? Who is Jesus in your life? Question for adults: What is the cross that you carry today? How do you follow Jesus in the workplace and at home? Activities for the week Take these activities to further reflect: We are called to carry our crosses. For your prayer time this week, gather family members in a circle. If you have a crucifix, pass it around the circle. If you do not have a crucifix or cross, make one. Explain: “When the cross is passed to you, quietly pray for strength to carry your own cross. As you wait to hold the cross, silently pray for whoever is holding the cross.” To help your family understand what it means to follow in Jesus’ footsteps, use the following activity: Take off your shoes and trace one of your feet on a sheet of paper. Cut out the outline of your foot. Write down inside the foot how you can follow in Jesus’ footsteps at home, at school or at work. After each family member has complet-ed the activity, place each person’s foot on the floor to create a path. Gather around the footsteps and talk about what it means to follow in Jesus’ footsteps. The choice to follow Jesus includes carrying one’s cross. What is the cross that you carry today? How does Jesus help you carry your cross? Create a poster with your family. On the poster, write ways your family can follow in the footsteps of Jesus. Some suggestions in-clude: Helping one another with household tasks. Visiting someone who is homebound. Being compassionate and listening to one an-other. Volunteering to help with a parish project that serves the poor.

Pastoral Care Are you homebound and in need of Pastoral Care? Do you know someone who is homebound and in need of Pastoral Care among our La Salette Parish community? Do you or someone you know wishes to receive Holy Communion at home. Please call the parish office at 770.479.8923 to let us know.

Cuidado Pastoral ¿Está usted confinado en su casa for enfermedad? ¿Conoce a alguien en la comunidad parroquial que está confinado a su casa y necesita que se le visite? ¿Usted o alguien que conoce desea recibir la Sagrada Comunión en casa? Por favor, llame a la oficina de la parroquia al 770.479.8923.

STEWARDSHIP BY THE BIBLE — CORRESPONSABILIDAD DE ACUERDO A LA BIBLIA

Vigesimo-cuarto Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario 16 de septiembre del 2018 En la segunda lectura de hoy, Santiago tiene palabras severas para aquellos que no ponen su fe en acción. Que nosotros seamos tan buenos corresponsables de los bienes de Dios para nosotros, que nunca nos puedan acusar de tener fe que no se demuestra con obras.

Twenty-fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time September 16, 2018 In the second reading today, James has harsh words for those who do not put their faith into action. May we be such good stewards of God’s gifts to us that we can never be accused of having faith that is not put into practice.
