Thirty-first Sunday in Ordinary Time
The Word, the Wisdom of God, Was Made flesh
A sermon by St Peter Chrysologus
The holy Apostle has told us that the human
race takes its origin from two men, Adam and Christ;
two men equal in body but unequal in merit, wholly
alike in their physical structure but totally unlike in
the very origin of their being. The first man, Adam,
he says, became a living soul, the last Adam a lifegiving spirit.
The first Adam was made by the last Adam,
from whom he also received his soul, to give him
life. The last Adam was formed by his own action; he
did not have to wait for life to be given him by
someone else, but was the only one who could give
life to all. The first Adam was formed from valueless
clay, the second Adam came forth from the precious
womb of the Virgin. In the case of the first Adam,
earth was changed into flesh; in the case of the
second Adam, flesh was raised up to be God.
What more need be said? The second Adam
stamped his image on the first Adam when he
created him. That is why he took on himself the role,
and the name, of the first Adam, in order that he
might not lose what he had made in his own image.
The first Adam, the last Adam; the first had a
beginning, the last knows no end. The last Adam is
indeed the first; as he himself says: I am the first and
the last.
I am the first, that is, I have no beginning. I
am the last, that is, I have no end. But what was
spiritual, says the Apostle, did not come first; what
was living came first, then what is spiritual. The
earth comes before its fruit, but the earth is not so
valuable as its fruit. The earth exacts pain and toil;
its fruit bestows subsistence and life. The prophet

rightly boasted of this fruit: Our earth has yielded its
fruit. What is this fruit? The fruit referred to in
another place: I will place upon your throne one who
is the fruit of your body. The first man, says the
Apostle, was made from the earth and belongs to
the earth; the second man is from heaven, and
belongs to heaven.
The man made from the earth is the pattern
of those who belong to the earth; the man from
heaven is the pattern of those who belong to
heaven. How is it that these last, though they do not
belong to heaven by birth, will yet belong to heaven,
men who do not remain what they were by birth but
persevere in being what they have become by
rebirth? The reason is, brethren, that the heavenly
Spirit, by the mysterious infusion of his light, gives
fertility to the womb of the virginal font. The Spirit
brings forth as men belonging to heaven those
whose earthly ancestry brought them forth as men
belonging to the earth, and in a condition of
wretchedness; he gives them the likeness of their
Creator. Now that we are reborn, refashioned in the
image of our Creator, we must fulfil what the Apostle
commands: So, as we have worn the likeness of the
man of earth, let us also wear the likeness of the
man of heaven.
Now that we are reborn, as I have said, in
the likeness of our Lord, and have indeed been
adopted by God as his children, let us put on the
complete image of our Creator so as to be wholly
like him, not in the glory that he alone possesses,
but in innocence, simplicity, gentleness, patience,
humility, mercy, harmony, those qualities in which he
chose to become, and to be, one with us.

Thirty-First Sunday in Ordinary Time
Congratulations!
St. Edward students continue to do very well at Moreau Catholic
High School, outperforming many of their peers from other
schools. Of the St. Edward students at Moreau, 33of them, (or
74%) were on the second semester honor roll in June. Of those
33 students, 21 of them (63%) were on the Principal’s Honor
Roll (GPA of 3.5 and above).
Of our 8th grade class last year, all who applied to Moreau
Catholic High School were accepted. Our students scored above
many of their peers from other schools on the High School
Placement Test (HSPT). Our students scored 11 points above
the Moreau applicant testing pool in reading, 14 points above the
applicant pool in math, and 13 points above the pool of applicants in language. If compared to the national average, those
numbers are even higher.

Sacred Relics Of The Saints:
Treasures Of The Church
Please Pray For:
Oren Por Ellos:
St. Edward's Parish presents a
teaching and exposition of Sacred
Relics on Tuesday, November 5, at
7:00 pm. Father Carlos Martins of
the Companions of the Cross will be
here with his very special ministry to
teach about these holy objects. He
will bring with him over 150 relics, some as old as 2000
years. Among the treasures will be relics of St. Maria
Goretti, St. Therese of Lisieux (the “Little Flower"), St.
Francis of Assisi, St. Anthony of Padua, St. Thomas
Aquinas, and St. Faustina Kowalska. In addition, there
will also be present a portion of the veil of Our Lady, as
well as one of the largest remaining pieces of the True
Cross in the world. Those in attendance will be able to
examine and venerate each relic. In the Church’s history
many miracles and healings have been worked in the
presence of relics, and many have been healed through
this ministry. Please do not miss this opportunity. You
are encouraged to bring your articles of devotion (such
as rosaries, holy cards, etc.) and pictures of ill friends/
family members which you will be able to touch to the
reliquaries as a means of intercession.

BOLETIM PORTUGUÊS
MISSA DOMINGO XXXI DO
TEMPO COMUM
Comentário: O evangelista Lucas, também neste
domingo, continua a nos relatar a viagem que Jesus está
fazendo rumo a Jerusalém. Há três semanas, ele estava
na Samaria, quando curou os dez leprosos. Agora,
continuando o seu caminho, chega a Jericó, uma grande
cidade, uma cidade importante. Entre a multidão que
procura ver Jesus se encontra Zaqueu, o chefe dos
publicanos. Os publicanos eram os cobradores de taxas
para o império romano. E, se como tais publicanos
pegavam em muito dinheiro, sempre aproveitavam para
roubar um “pouco”, para enriquecerem num curto espaço
de tempo. Por isso, o povo não suportava os publicanos:
chamava-lhes traidores porque colaboravam com a
opressão do império romano, e os considerava
trapaceadores, que sabiam por meio do engano roubar
dinheiro para ficarem ricos.
Assim, este homem chamado Zaqueu era o chefe dos
publicanos de Jericó, portanto um homem importante por
causa de suas riquezas adquiridas de forma desonesta, e
enfim, era o chefe desse sistema de enriquecimento. De
fato, o evangelista faz questão de lembrar que Zaqueu
era muito rico. Mas este Zaqueu desejava ver Jesus. Mas
tinha um problema: era baixo de estatura e com tanta
gente que havia em volta de Jesus não consegue ver
nada. Por isso, fica nas pontas dos pés, mas vê só as
cabeças do povo. Tenta se infiltrar entre as pessoas para
ir um pouco mais adiante, mas não consegue. Não o
deixam passar. Tá difícil!
Então tem uma ideia: se como sabe que Jesus está
atravessando a cidade, Zaqueu sabe também qual
caminho o Mestre de Nazaré percorrerá! Assim corre na
frente e sobe numa árvore. Entendamos bem: sobe numa
árvore, num sicômoro (é um tipo de figueira de raízes
profundas e galhos fortes e dá boa sombra), diz o
Evangelho, porque assim, do alto, poderá ver Jesus bem!
Tentemos imaginar a cena: um homem importante,
inclusive chefe dos publicanos, que sobe numa árvore
como um menino, para esperar Jesus que passa. Pode
parecer um pouco ridículo e os outros que o veem
poderiam caçoar dele... mas a Zaqueu, neste momento,
não importa nada: só quer ver Jesus. E ainda não sabe o
que está para acontecer!!! Assim, quando Jesus chega
embaixo do sicômoro, levanta os olhos, vê o cobrador de
Missa Domingo XXXI Do Tempo Comum
impostos e diz: “Zaqueu, desce depressa! Hoje eu devo
ficar na tua casa”.
Que maravilha! Podemos imaginar a alegria de Zaqueu.
Quem pode imaginar quanta emoção descer da árvore
para encontrar-se com o Mestre que lhe faz a honra
imensa de entrar na sua casa. Zaqueu se sente pleno de
felicidade e salta da árvore, apressadamente, diz Lucas,
porque quase ainda não acredita que uma coisa tão bela
esteja acontecendo com ele.
Não consegue dizer nenhuma palavra, só se encaminha
para conduzir Jesus para a sua casa e enquanto isso
pensa: “O Mestre de Nazaré me chamou pelo nome,
chamou exatamente a mim, como se fôssemos amigos
há muito tempo, e eu ouvi bem: quer ficar mesmo na
minha casa”.
Quando o povo viu que realmente Jesus estava indo a
casa de Zaqueu, quando o veem entrar e sentar-se à
mesa altamente arrumada para a refeição, começa a
murmurar escandalizado. Mas como? Com tantas
pessoas honestas, com tantas pessoas importantes e
respeitáveis que existem em Jericó, este mestre vai
comer justamente na casa do chefe dos ladrões? Uma
vergonha! Uma coisa deste tipo não podia ser aceita.
Zaqueu se dá conta do escândalo dos seus conterrâneos
e é ele mesmo que cala todos os comentários, porque se
levanta e diz em alta voz: “Senhor, eu dou a metade dos
meus bens aos pobres e, se defraudei alguém, vou
devolver quatro vezes mais”. Zaqueu reconhece não ter
agido sempre honestamente, por isso está pronto a
restituir quatro vezes mais aquilo que roubou com o
engano. – Pe Carlos Henrique Nascimento
