 From The Pastor’s Desk
Dear Parish Family,
Peace and all good. In this weekend’s Gospel reading
(Matthew 5: 13-16), Jesus tell his disciples (and us) that they/
we are “the salt of the earth.“ The modern reader of these
words might think: “Well, so what. Salt is cheap; in fact, it’s
basically a free commodity in restaurants. And besides, salt
isn’t all that great for you, anyhow. After all, how many of us
are on salt-restricted diets for health reasons?”
But for the first listeners of Jesus’ words, this command
had an entirely different effect. Salt, in the time of Jesus,
was a rare and precious commodity, used as both a spice and
a food preservative. It was so valuable, in fact, that Roman
soldiers received part of their pay in salt—their “salarium”,
or what we would term their “salary.” Salt was also a sign of
friendship and hospitality. Even to this day, people will bring
gifts of salt and grain as a welcoming gesture to new
neighbors.
Still, by itself, salt is of minimal utility. As a catalyst, how-
ever, it has a tremendous effect on the taste of food. Have
some unsalted French fries, unsalted peanuts, or unsalted
potatoes, if you don’t believe me. Great taste, right? Not.
As followers of Jesus, we are called to be “salt”—our pres-
ence and action in the world serves as an important catalyst.
Wherever Christians behave like Christians, things change:
there is an urge for more peace, more justice, more commu-
nity, more compassion. More love. Jesus reminds us that
we should never underestimate the importance of our ac-
tions—everything has its effect, even if our efforts appear
insignificant or failed from the outset…..
Elsewhere in the parish: This past week we have joined
with Catholics throughout the United States to celebrate
Catechetical Minute
Scripture As An Instrument of Unity
In the past, the Bible often divided Catholics and Protes-
tants. When differences in understanding Scripture occur
now, they are more likely the result of the method used in
reading the Bible than of the Church to which one belongs.
Some people choose analytical/critical methods to discover
the meanings of biblical tests; others base their
interpretation of passages on the literal meaning of the
words only.
In its most recent document, “the interpretation of the
Bible in the Church” (1994), the Pontifical Biblical Commis-
sion insisted that, as important as it is to know what the Bi-
ble originally meant, we must also be concerned about what
it might mean in today’s world — a world embroiled in eco-
nomic injustice, war and discrimination. This means that, in
our reading of the Bible, we must be sensitive to issues of
gender, race, ethnic origin, class and other political factors
that make up the real world. These factors influence the way
women and men perceive reality and fashion their inner and

Catholic Schools Week. Catholic schools work—and they
work wonderfully well—especially our own parish school,
Old Mission Montessori. Many thanks to all who participated
in the moving liturgy at 10 AM last week—and special thanks
to all of the children and young people involved as altar serv-
ers, choir members, and presenters of the offertory gifts.
At the special Children’s Mass (10 AM), I announced some
wonderful news, which I would like to share with all of you.
Through the generosity of one of our parishioners, Tom
Davis, we are establishing the Tom and Adele E. Davis Trust
Fund to provide scholarships for students at Old Mission
Montessori.
I will try to announce the details of the scholarship
program in next week’s bulletin, but in basic terms the Tom
and Adele E. Davis Trust Fund will award up to 10 half-tuition
scholarships to OMMS over the next two years. That
translates into a total outlay of some $20,000.
Many thanks to Tom Davis for his tremendously kind and
deeply appreciated contribution, which he has made in
honor and memory of his wife, Adele, who passed away
recently.
We are hoping that this gesture will inspire other parish-
ioners to make a similar commitment. For every $2,000 we
raise, we can fund a ½-tuition scholarship—which will enable
a number of parents to provide their children with a superb
Catholic education. I urge you to consider making a contri-
bution in any amount to assist in this important effort.
Many thanks to you all—you are, indeed, the salt of the
earth.
God bless,
Fr. Chuck
outer worlds.
Such sensitivity is particularly difficult to develop when we
read stories that are clearly biased in favor of one group
over another. For example, the Israelites are too often
chosen over considered a form of punishment for sin. One of
the pressing issues facing us today is the challenge to be
faithful to the meaning of the biblical narrative, while at the
same time considering how we understand things in the
world today.
We have come a long way in the area of sensitivity. The
liberation theology movement that appeared in Latin
America in the early 1970’s has significantly affected the way
we read the Bible. The experience of oppression and poverty
brought people to a new appreciation of the Bible stories of
liberation. This in turn has inspired many people to challenge
governmental structures and policies that they believe to be
unjust. Related to this is the women’s movement and its
concern for inclusive language in both biblical translations
and the prayers used during liturgies. Some dismiss inclusive
language as being merely a matter of political
correctness. But is it not rather about recognizing the
equality of all before God?

MEDIA/BOOK OF THE WEEK:
Everyday Life in Bible Times
National Geographic
In these 448 color-packed pages, a world of marketplaces
in man’s early cities comes alive for us today—a world of
merchants hawking pots, lyres and melons, and a slave sells
for less than a draft animal. The dust and danger of a
caravan is stirred as Abraham leads his kin from pagan Ur to
the Chaldees. The smell of mud and straw arises as Hebrews
make bricks under the lash of pharaohs; the jeers of a
Jerusalem mob resound as it surges to the “place of the
skull” to watch Roman soldiers execute the Prince of Peace.
In the past century the spades of science have brought
forth a treasure of knowledge illuminating the great
narratives of the Bible. Kings and conquests known only in
its pages spring to life in texts and monuments.
With such finds as the clay tablets of Sumer and the Dead
Sea Scrolls of Qumran, scholars have revived those distant
days when men began to farm, develop plow and wheel,
cluster their homes in towns, learn to write, make war and
worship.
“To believe there are ruins under a hill, and to find them,”
says Dr. James Pritchard, “is one of the thrills of archeology.”
Share that thrill with Dr. Pritchard and other explorers as
they probe for secrets at the horizon of history.

Stewardship Message
Jesus said to his followers “You are the
light of the world…your light must shine be-
fore others, that they may see your good
deeds and glorify your heavenly Father.”
Christian stewards allow the light of Christ
to shine through them to reach others. A
good reflection question for the week: In what ways do
we allow the light of Christ to shine through us?

 DEL ESCRITORIO DEL PARROCO…
Querida Familia Parroquial,
¡Paz y todo bien!
En el Evangelio de esta semana, Mateo (5:13-16), Jesús les
dice a sus discípulos (y a nosotros) que ellos/que nosotros
somos la “sal de la tierra.” El lector moderno de estas pala-
bras puede pensar: “¿Pues, y qué? La sal es barata: de hecho,
este es un artículo básicamente gratis en los restaurantes. Y
además, la sal, después de todo, no es lo mejor para ti. De
hecho, ¿cuántos de nosotros estamos en dietas sin sal por
razones de salud?”
Pero, para los lectores primeros de las palabras de Jesús, esta
orden tuvo un efecto enteramente diferente. La sal, en el
tiempo de Jesús, era un producto raro y precioso, usado co-
mo un preservativo de los alimentos y como un condimento
para dar sabor. Era tan valiosa que, de hecho, los soldados
romanos recibían su pago en sal “salarium” o lo que nosotros
podríamos llamar su “salario.” La sal también era un signo de
amistad y de hospitalidad. Hasta hoy en día, algunas perso-
nas traen regalos de sal y de granos a los vecinos nuevos,
como un gesto de bienvenida.
La sal, por sí sola, es un artículo de utilidad mínima. Como un
catalítico, sin embargo, esto tiene un efecto tremendo en el
sabor de la comida. Prueba las papas fritas sin sal, las nueces
sin sal o las papas sin sal si no me crees. ¿Buen sabor? No.
Como seguidores de Jesús nosotros somos a ser “sal” - nues-
tra presencia y nuestra acción en el mundo sirve como un
agente catalítico. Dondequiera que los Cristianos actúan co-
mo Cristianos, las cosas cambian: hay una insistencia por más
paz, por más justicia, por más comunidad, por más compa-
sión. Más amor. Jesús nos recuerda que nosotros nunca de-
bemos de subestimar la importancia de nuestras acciones—
todas las cosas tienen su efecto, aún si nuestros esfuerzos
aparentan ser insignificantes, o fallan a la vista…
Fuera de la Parroquia: Esta semana pasada nos hemos reuni-
do con los Católicos a través de todos los Estados Unidos
para celebrar la Semana de las Escuelas Católicas. El trabajo
de las Escuelas Católicas—y ellos trabajan maravillosamen-
te—especialmente nuestra escuela parroquial propia—
Montessori de la Vieja Misión. Muchas gracias a todos los
que participaron en la liturgia tan maravillosa de la Misa de
10:00 a.m. de la semana pasada—y gracias especiales a todos
los niños y gente joven envueltos como acólitos, como miem-
bros del coro y presentadores de los regalos del Ofertorio.
En la Misa Especial de los Niños (10:00 AM), yo anuncié algu-
nas noticias maravillosas que desearía compartir con todos
ustedes. Por la generosidad de nuestro feligrés, Tom Davis,
nosotros estamos estableciendo el Fideicomiso Tom y Adele
E. Davis, el cual proveerá becas para estudiantes de la Escue-
la Montessori de la Vieja Misión.
Continúa en la columna siguiente...
8 | PARROQUIA MISION SAN LUIS REY, Oceanside, California — 6 de febrero del 2011
Continuación…
Yo trataré de anunciar los detalles del programa de becas en
nuestro boletín próximo, pero en términos básicos, el Fidei-
comiso Tom y Adele E. Davis permitiría la mitad del costo
hasta de 10 matrículas a la Escuela Montessori durante los
dos años próximos. Esto se traduce en un total de $20,000.
Muchas gracias a Tom Davis por su contribución, tan tre-
mendamente generosa y tan apreciada, la cual él ha hecho
en honor y en memoria de su esposa Adele, quien falleció
recientemente.
Nosotros esperamos que este gesto inspire a otros feligreses
a llevar a cabo un compromiso similar. Por cada $2.000 que
se obtengan, nosotros podremos tener un fondo de ½ matrí-
cula el cual permitirá a un número de padres a proveer a sus
hijos una educación Católica magnífica. Yo insisto y les reco-
miendo a que consideren hacer una contribución en cual-
quier cantidad hacia este esfuerzo tan importante.
Muchas gracias a todos ustedes—verdaderamente, ustedes
son la sal de la tierra.
Dios les bendiga,
Padre Chuck
