The great fifty-day celebration of Easter has concluded, as have the feasts honoring the Holy Trinity
and the Body and Blood of Christ. Last week we began a long stretch of Ordinary Time that will bring
us to late November. Saint Paul tells us today that
those who are baptized "have clothed yourselves
with Christ" (Galatians 3:27). This scripture is echoed in the Church's baptism ritual when we sing,
"You have put on Christ, in him you have been baptized." This message is inspiring and sobering at the
same time, for in today's Gospel, we get to the heart
of what it means to be clothed in Christ. The Lord
tells us, "If anyone wishes to come after me, he must
deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow
me" (Luke 9:23). For the next twenty-two weeks we
are called to take up the cross and, with Saint Luke
as our guide, follow in the footsteps of Christ.

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
It's almost midsummer day! One of the great hidden
treasures of our liturgical calendar occurs this week.
There are only three "nativity" feasts on our calendar: for the Lord, the Blessed Mother (September 8),
and the Nativity of Saint John the Baptist on June
24. Friday's date is anchored by the Annunciation
(March 25), when Mary learns not only of her own
child's advent, but of Elizabeth's child. We are exactly half a year away from Christmas Eve. There are
strong traditions around this feast. Just as the winter
solstice provides a rich vocabulary for Christmas, so
does the abundance of light at midsummer inform
this celebration. Just as at Christmas, a religious
festival spills over into culture. As summer light
reaches its peak, the sun-drenched zones of northern
Europe see people staying up all night, kindling "St.
John's Fires" in the long summer twilight. Bonfires
seem to be the unifying force in all these celebrations, kindled along the shores of the St. Lawrence in
Quebec and Montreal, with harbor illuminations in
France. You may be most interested in the custom in
San Juan, Puerto Rico, the Baptist's own city. People
there will leap into the sea between midnight and
dawn to honor John. Why not find your way to a
pool, a lake, or a sandy beach this week and plunge
in to recall your baptism? It's a tradition!

A MOTHERS LETTER
Proteja a los niños del acoso o “bullying” mientras
juegan en Internet El paso de los juegos en línea
sigue aumentando. Existe una pequeña, pero real
oportunidad de que pueda ocurrir la vic mización
cuando los niños juegan e interactúan con otros en
teléfonos, tabletas, laptops, computadoras de mesa y consolas de juego. Una manera ú l de enseñar
a los niños sobre cómo manejar problemas es animarlos a reportar problemas cuando estos surjan.
Los proveedores de servicio de Internet y las redes
de juegos por Internet enen sistemas establecidos
para recibir quejas de abuso y luego las inves gan
(en conjunto con la policía, cuando es necesario).
Para más consejos sobre cómo ayudar a proteger a
los niños y jóvenes de las vulnerabilidades mientras
juegan en línea, por favor envíe un correo electrónico a bmelendez@la-archdiocese.org o llame al

The beautiful story of a mom who
wrote a letter to a doctor who had recommended
she get an abortion is now going viral. To my
doctor:
… I came to you during the most difficult time in
my life. I was terrified, anxious and in complete
despair. I didn’t know the truth yet about my baby…instead of support and encouragement, you
suggested we terminate our child. I told you her
name, and you asked us again if we understood
how low our quality of life would be with a child
with Down syndrome. You suggested we reconsider our decision to continue the pregnancy… From
that first visit, we dreaded our appointments. The
most difficult time in my life was made nearly
unbearable because you never told me the truth.
My child was perfect…she’s given us a purpose
and a joy that is impossible to express…

DID YOU KNOW?
Protect kids from bullying while playing online The pace
of online gaming is only growing. There is a small but real
chance that vic miza on could occur when kids play and
interact with others on phones, tablets, laptops, desktops
and gaming consoles. A helpful way to teach children
about handling problems is to encourage them to report
issues when they arise. Internet service providers and
gaming networks have systems set up to field complaints
of abuse and then inves gate them (in conjunc on with
law enforcement, when necessary). For more ps on how

SEGUIR LOS PASOS A CRISTO
La gran celebración de cincuenta días de la
Pascua ha concluido, al igual que las fiestas
en honor a la Santísima Trinidad y al Cuerpo
y la Sangre de Cristo. La semana pasada
comenzamos el largo tramo del Tiempo Ordinario que nos llevará hasta el final de
noviembre. San Pablo nos dice hoy que los
que han sido bautizados "se han revestido de
Cristo" (Gálatas 3:27). Este mensaje es inspirador y al mismo tiempo nos alecciona, ya
que en el Evangelio de hoy, vamos al centro
de lo que significa estar revestidos de Cristo.
El Señor nos dice, "si alguno quiere acompañarme, que no se busque a sí mismo, que
tome su cruz de cada día y me siga" (Lucas
9:23). Durante las veinte y dos semanas que
siguen somos llamados a tomar la cruz y,
con san Lucas como guía, seguir en los
pasos a Cristo.
