Thanks for outpouring of support for new hospital

To the editor:

On Sunday, March 18, approximately 6,000 area residents joined us in celebrating the opening of the new Monroe Clinic Hospital. It was an exciting day for our staff who also came out in full force to welcome the community and tour them through the new facility.

We are touched by the outpouring of support we have experienced through the grand opening events over the past week, and we want to take a moment to say thanks. We’d like to start by thanking the community for their personal interest and kind words during the open house and throughout the entire construction process.

Following Jesus: Holy Week reminds us to protect the Holy Land

Editor's View by Mary C. Uhler

Starting with Palm Sunday, Catholics are following in the footsteps of Jesus during the liturgies of Holy Week and Easter with the wonderful Scripture readings recounting the Passion, death, and Resurrection.

We read in all four Gospels that Jesus experienced a triumphal entry into Jerusalem. He rode on a donkey, which traditionally meant he arrived in peace (those with more war-like purposes were said to ride on a horse).

Libertad religiosa, libertad de consciencia

Queridos amigos:

La semana pasada tuve el privilegio de ser testigo de la libertad religiosa y la libertad de consciencia con casi 500 fieles en el edificio federal del centro de la ciudad de Madison. Esas manifestaciones han sido organizadas rápidamente en toda nuestra nación y sé que no todos los que podrían haber participado lo hicieron (o incluso supieron sobre estos eventos).

Los que pudieron congregarse allí, sin embargo, eran en su mayoría católicos (aunque no todos) y al estar allí estaban cumpliendo lo que el Concilio Vaticano II quiso decir cuando hablaba de la “misión de los laicos”, es decir, aplicar los estándares del Reino de Dios al mundo real.

Ese es el verdadero papel que la Iglesia estaba tratando de asignar a los laicos a través del Concilio Vaticano II: fieles que testimonien activamente al mundo de hoy, haciendo presente a la Iglesia hoy (algo opuesto a la idea de que la manera principal de ser un “católico” activo es tener distintos roles litúrgicos).

Las mujeres, hombres y niños reunidos en Madison la semana pasada estaban tomando la misión de laicos de la Iglesia, que es testimoniar la presencia santificadora de Dios en el mundo. Alentaría a que todos recordemos nuestro llamado a esa misión en nuestra vida cotidiana mientras miramos al futuro de nuestra nación.
