KEEPING OUR COMMITMENTS
In the musical Fiddler on the Roof, the husband,
Tevye, whose marriage was arranged years and years before, wants to know if his wife really loves him. Was their
marriage just an arrangement, a deal? Did his wife, after
all these years, ever love him? Does she still?
We need to know if our loving commitments stick.
We need to be reminded and reaffirmed. In the first reading, Joshua, Moses’ successor, needed to know if the people would remain faithful to their covenant with the Lord.
Joshua was going to lead them to a new life - a settled
life. Would they be faithful?
Jesus, who identified himself as the very life of his
disciples’ life, needed to know: Will you also go away or
will you stay? We do not often see Jesus this vulnerable.
Peter and the apostles chose to stay. What will we do?

A BIOGRAPHY OF ST. ROSE OF LIMA
At her confirmation in 1597, she took the name of
Rose, because, when an infant, her face had been seen
transformed by a mystical rose. As a child she was
remarkable for a great reverence, and pronounced love,
for all things relating to God. This so took possession of
her that thenceforth her life was given up to prayer and
mortification. She had an intense devotion to the Infant
Jesus and His Blessed Mother, before whose altar she
spent hours. She was scrupulously obedient and of
untiring industry, making rapid progress by earnest
attention to her parents' instruction, to her studies, and to
her domestic work, especially with her needle. After
reading of St. Catherine she determined to take that saint
as her model. She began by fasting three times a week,
adding secret severe penances, and when her vanity was
assailed, cutting off her beautiful hair, wearing coarse
clothing, and roughening her hands with toil. All this time
she had to struggle against the objections of her friends,
the ridicule of her family, and the censure of her parents.
Many hours were spent before the Blessed Sacrament,
which she received daily. Finally she determined to take a
vow of virginity, and inspired by supernatural love,
adopted extraordinary means to fulfill it. At the outset she
had to combat the opposition of her parents, who wished
her to marry. For ten years the struggle continued before
she won, by patience and prayer, their consent to continue
her mission. At the same time great temptations assailed
her purity, faith, and constancy, causing her excruciating
agony of mind and desolation of spirit, urging her to more
frequent mortifications; but daily, also, Our Lord
manifested Himself, fortifying her with the knowledge of
His presence and consoling her mind with evidence of His
Divine love. Fasting daily was soon followed by perpetual
abstinence from meat, and that, in turn, by use of only the
coarsest food and just sufficient to support life. Her days
were filled with acts of charity and industry, her exquisite
lace and embroidery helping to support her home, while
her nights were devoted to prayer and penance. When her
work permitted, she retired to a little grotto which she had
built, with her brother's aid, in their small garden, and
there passed her nights in solitude and prayer.
Overcoming the opposition of her parents, and with the
consent of her confessor, she was allowed later to become
practically a recluse in this cell, save for her visits to the
Blessed Sacrament. In her twentieth year she received the
habit of St. Dominic. Thereafter she redoubled the
severity and variety of her penances to a heroic degree,
wearing constantly a metal spiked crown, concealed by
roses, and an iron chain about her waist. Days passed
without food, save a draught of gall mixed with bitter
herbs. When she could no longer stand, she sought repose
on a bed constructed by herself, of broken glass, stone,
potsherds, and thorns. She admitted that the thought of
lying down on it made her tremble with dread. Fourteen
years this martyrdom of her body continued without
relaxation, but not without consolation. Our Lord revealed
Himself to her frequently, flooding her soul with such
inexpressible peace and joy as to leave her in ecstasy four
hours. At these times she offered to Him all her
mortifications and penances in expiation for offences
against His Divine Majesty, for the idolatry of her
country, for the conversion of sinners, and for the souls in
Purgatory.
Many miracles followed her death. She was beatified by
Clement IX, in 1667, and canonized in 1671 by Clement
X, the first American to be so honored. Her feast is
celebrated 30 August. She is represented wearing a crown
of roses.
PRAYER OF INTERCESSION THROUGH SAINT ROSE
OF LIMA
God our Father, for love of you St. Rose gave up
everything to devote herself to a life of penance. By the
help of her prayers may we imitate her selfless way of life
on earth and enjoy the fullness of your blessings in
heaven. Grant this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your
Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

wyjdziesz na wolność, chciałbym ci pomóc. - Niestety,
ksiądz nie może mi pomóc. Moje zajęcie wymaga
ogromnej wprawy...
Młoda dziewczyna spowiada się że często popada w
grzech pychy. - Jak to się dzieje, moje dziecko? - pyta
ksiądz. - Często spoglądam w lustro i zachwycam się
swoją urodą. - To nie grzech, dziecko to zwykła
pomyłka...
Proboszcz do jednego ze swoich parafian:
- Dlaczgo nie idzie pan na pogrzeb swojego sąsiada?
- Z jakiej racji proszę księdza? On nie będzie na moim.

PATRONA
SANTA ROSA DE
LIMA
23de Agosto de 2015
El Salvador levantó la voz y dijo, con incomparable
majestad: "¡Conozcan todos que la gracia sigue a la
tribulación. Sepan que sin el peso de las aflicciones no se
llega al colmo de la gracia. Comprendan que, conforme al
acrecentamiento de los trabajos, se aumenta juntamente la
medida de los carismas. Que nadie se engañe: esta es
la única verdadera escala del paraíso, y fuera de la cruz
no hay camino por donde se pueda subir al cielo!"
Oídas estas palabras, me sobrevino un impetu poderoso de ponerme en medio de la plaza para gritar con
grandes clamores, diciendo a todas las personas, de cualquier edad, sexo, estado y condición que fuesen:
"Oíd pueblos, oíd, todo género de gentes: de parte de
Cristo y con palabras tomadas de su misma boca, yo os
aviso: Que no se adquiere gracia sin padecer aflicciones;
hay necesidad de trabajos y más trabajos, para conseguir la participación íntima de la divina naturaleza, la
gloria de los hijos de Dios y la perfecta hermosura del
alma."
Este mismo estímulo me impulsaba impetuosamente
a predicar la hermosura de la divina gracia, me angustiaba y me hacía sudar y anhelar. Me parecía que ya no
podía el alma detenerse en la cárcel del cuerpo, sino que
se había de romper la prisión y, libre y sola, con más
agilidad se había de ir por el mundo, dando voces:
"¡Oh, si conociesen los mortales qué gran cosa es la
gracia, qué hermosa, qué noble, qué preciosa, cuántas riquezas esconde en sí, cuántos tesoros, cuántos júbilos y
delicias! Sin duda emplearían toda su diligencia, afanes
y desvelos en buscar penas y aflicciones; andarían todos
por el mundo en busca de molestias, enfermedades y
tormentos, en vez de aventuras, por conseguir el tesoro
último de la constancia en el sufrimiento. Nadie se quejaría de la cruz ni de los trabajos que le caen en suerte,
si conocieran las balanzas donde se pesan para repartirlos entre los hombres."
