DUE TO EARLY DEADLINES FROM SOME BULLETIN PUBLISHERS, THE DISPATCH WILL BE SENT EARLY FOR THE NEXT FEW WEEKS. Items which come in late will still be posted on the website's Diocesan Dispatch.
Our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe
“…whatever you did for one of the least of my brothers, you did for me.” (Matthew 25:40) Most of us are generous when it’s convenient for us. We are generous when we have the time or the money. But, generosity is the opposite of that. It means giving of one’s time, money, compassion, forgiveness or mercy when it’s not convenient; when it’s not on our schedule, but on the other person’s schedule.
Nuestro Señor Jesucristo, Rey del Universo
"... todo lo que hiciste por uno de mis hermanos más pequeños, lo hiciste por mí". (MATEO 25:40) La mayoría de nosotros somos generosos cuando nos conviene. Somos generosos cuando tenemos el tiempo o el dinero. Pero la generosidad es lo opuesto a eso. Significa dar nuestro tiempo, dinero, compasión, perdón o misericordia cuando no es conveniente; cuando no está en nuestro horario, sino en el horario de la otra persona.
