The feast of one of our patrons,
Saint Gregory the Great, is
celebrated Sept 3.
One of our Latin Doctors of the
Church, Gregory was pope from
590 to 604 and is only one of four
popes honored with the title of “the
Great.”
A member of a noble family,
Gregory could have pursued a
brilliant political career, but he renounced all worldly
interests and used his large inheritance to feed the poor and
to establish seven monasteries, including one in Rome on
his own estate. He entered the Roman community himself
around 574 and was soon a trusted adviser to the popes.
Against his desires, he was unanimously chosen pope at a
time of great crisis. The Germanic tribe of the Lombards
threatened the Eternal City, and Rome itself suffered from a
vacuum of political leadership. He thus assumed many
civil powers, saved Rome from Lombard attack by a peace
agreement, reorganized the papal lands, introduced reforms
in religious practice and gave a major impetus to missionary
activity by sending St. Augustine of Canterbury to the
British Isles in 596. He also is credited with the creation of
what came to be called Gregorian chant.
For all of his immense achievements, he never forgot the
poor. Gregory called himself Servus Servorum Dei
(“Servant of the Servants of God”) and was much
concerned with the needs of the poor, forgotten and
defenseless. He regularly invited the poorest of the city to
eat with him and once performed days of personal penance
when he learned that a beggar actually had starved to death
in Rome.
Much about St Gregory rings true to me regarding Pope
Francis: His dedication to the poor, rising to pope during
difficult times and against his personal desires, seeking
peace and reform, and leading a life of service, especially to
the poor and vulnerable.
Pope Francis will visit Sweden in October to participate in
an ecumenical service and the beginning of a year of
activities to mark the 500th anniversary of the Protestant
Reformation. Leaders from the Catholic Church and the
Lutheran World Federation had already been set to meet
Oct 31, for the ecumenical celebration in Lund, Sweden,
where the federation was founded in 1947. Pope Francis
“intends to participate” in the joint ceremony to
commemorate the anniversary. Pope Francis is scheduled
to lead the ecumenical commemoration in Lund alongside
Bishop Munib Younan, president of the Lutheran World
Federation, and the Rev. Martin Junge, federation general
secretary. The event is to include a common worship based
on the recently published Catholic-Lutheran ‘Common
Prayer’ liturgical guide, and will highlight ecumenical
developments between Catholics and Lutherans over the
past 50 years.
This week, let us look to St Gregory and Pope Francis for
guidance in leading Christian lives of peace, and service to
the poor and vulnerable. Let us keep Pope Francis and his
efforts in our prayers. We are indeed blessed, during
tumultuous times, to be guided by a true shepherd.
Peace, Fr Tom
Hace poco, una mujer inmigrante y pobre que
había criado a 11 hijos ella sola contestó,
cuando alguien le dijo que tenía mucho
mérito, que seguramente sería porque Dios la
había inspirado. Ella no daba mayor
importancia a lo que había hecho y al efecto
que eso había tenido en las vidas de sus hijos
y de las familias que ahora han formado ellos.
Le parecía lo normal; nada de lo que debiera
presumir; sin embargo, hay otras personas que pregonan cualquier
cosita que hacen y de alguna manera menosprecian lo que hacen los
demás. Hay un dicho que afirma que las almas más grandes suelen ser
las más sencillas; es decir, las más humildes. No es una humildad que
niegue las buenas cualidades que le ha dado Dios, sino una humildad
que las reconoce como dones.
Humildad tiene la misma raíz latina que la palabra humus, es decir,
suelo. El humilde está cercano al suelo y eso significa que es realista,
que se sabe acercar a los verdaderos problemas, las limitaciones y
necesidades de las personas en su alrededor. No se levanta sobre los
demás ni hace valer su autoridad, su prestigio o su fama; pero la persona
humilde tampoco es la que va diciendo que no sirve, que no vale, que
no sabe y se insulta a sí misma. Esa persona, más que humilde, es
injusta, porque no reconoce los dones y cualidades, los regalos que Dios
ha puesto en ella.
Tales personas grandes, es decir, humildes y sencillas, son las que saben
que todo lo que son y tienen está en función del servicio a los demás,
porque nada de lo que se tiene es por derecho o mérito propio, sino por
la gracia de Dios; y no se tiene para sí mismo, sino para los demás. San
Pablo dice: “por la gracia de Dios soy lo que soy”. Seguramente es
difícil mantener esta actitud, porque en esta sociedad se da importancia
a ciertas personas: autoridades civiles y eclesiásticas, profesores,
doctores, abogados o estrellas famosas. Quizá incluso se consideren
importantes las personas que tienen mucho dinero… incluso si ese
dinero se logra por explotación de otros; pero el evangelio lo deja bien
claro: para Jesús los importantes son quienes sirven a los demás.
Es grande la mujer que cuidó a sus 11 hijos. Es grande el padre que se
sacrifica por los suyos. Es grande quien trabaja codo a codo con otros.
Es grande quien camina sencillamente con su Dios.
·

¿A quiénes consideras grandes o importantes?
¿Si tuvieras que describirte a ti mismo, ¿qué palabras positivas
utilizarías?
¿Serías capaz de hacer una lista de tus buenas cualidades?
