A Note from our Pastor
Father Mark Arnzen

In Dr. Allen Hunt's book "The 21 Undeniable Secrets of Marriage" he puts forth this claim: "The most
important word in marriage is forgiveness. And along with forgiveness comes its spouse grace." (p 199)
While it is the many sides of love that draws us together, unites us, makes us fruitful, ultimately it is the gift
of forgiveness which holds love together in any relationship but most especially the spousal relationship. I
can imagine in most marital relationships in the very beginning the idea of being able to spend extended
time with the wife or husband would have been something all couples would enjoy an feel blessed but as
time wears on, being cooped up may take on a less alluring feeling.
For many married couples, families and even roommates, this forced coming together may not be the long
dreamed of second honeymoon as the nerves are frayed with children, conflict and worries that continue to pile up in a seemingly
unending stream. And this is hard and there is no magic bullet to move from this time of suffering whether small or tragic...it is just a
time where enduring seems like the only solution...but is this true?... Read full Pastoral Notes

En el libro del Dr. Allen Hunt "Los 21 Secretos Innegables del Matrimonio" expone esta afirmación: "La palabra más importante en el
matrimonio es el perdón. Y junto con el perdón viene la gracia de su cónyuge." (p 199) Si bien son los muchos lados del amor los que nos
unen, nos hacen fructíferos, en última instancia es el don del perdón lo que mantiene unido el amor en cualquier relación, pero sobre todo
en la relación conyugal. Puedo imaginar en la mayoría de las relaciones matrimoniales al principio la idea de poder pasar mucho tiempo
con la esposa o el esposo habría sido algo que todas las parejas disfrutarían de una sensación de bendición, pero a medida que el tiempo
se detiene, estar encerrados puede asumir una sensación menos seductora.
Para muchas parejas casadas, familias e incluso compañeros de cuarto esta reunión forzada puede no ser el largo sueño de la segunda
luna de miel, ya que los nervios están deshilachados de niños, conflictos y preocupaciones que continúan acuosándose en un arroyo
aparentemente interminable. Y esto es difícil y no hay ninguna bala mágica para moverse de este tiempo de sufrimiento, ya sea pequeño o
trágico... es sólo un momento en el que perseverar parece ser la única solución... pero es esto cierto?... Lea las notas pastorales
