WHY GOD ALLOWS PAIN
This is one of the best explanations of why God allows pain and
suffering that I have seen...
A man goes into a barbershop to have his hair cut and get a shave.
As the barber began his work, they began to have a good conversation.
They were talking about so many different things and topics.
Then they eventually touched on the subject of God, the barber said: "I
don't believe that God exists.”
Parish Clergy:
"Why do you say that?" asked the customer.
"Well, you just have to go out on the street to see that God does not
exist. Tell me, if God exists would there be so many sick people?,
would there be abandoned children? If God existed, there would be no
suffering or pain. I can't imagine how a loving God would allow such
things.”

Mr. Guido Mattozzi, Deacon
Mr. Benito Torres, Deacon
The customer thought for a while, but didn't respond as he did not want
to start an argument. The barber finished his job and the customer left
the shop.
Just after he left the shop, he saw a man on the street with long, dirty,
stringy hair and an untrimmed beard. He looked dirty and unkempt.

The customer went back into the barbershop and said: “You know,
barbers don't exist.” "How can you say that? I'm a barber and I just
worked on you!”, said the barber. "No!", the customer exclaimed.
"Barber's don't exist, because if they did, there would be no people
with long dirty hair and untrimmed beards, like the guy outside your
shop." "Ah, but barbers do exist! That's what happens when people do
not come to me", said the barber. "Exactly!", said the customer. "That's
the point! God, too, DOES exist! That's what happens when people
don't look to Him for help.
That's why there's so much pain and suffering in the world."

A TIME OF INTRODUCTION:
After a month of activities and of getting to know the general happenings of what we do and
what we have here in our beautiful parish, I would like to take the time to introduce myself
so that you too may know me a bit more about me.
I was born on October 14, 1967 in a small village in Colombia called San Juan de Rioseco
(St. John of Dryriver), in the department or district called Cundiamacra, not too far from the
capital which is Bogota. The beautiful area because of its scenery, it’s humble, peasant, and
simple people. Agriculture is our main work especially in coffee and livestock.
At the age of 5 we moved to Armero, a department of Tolima, because of my father’s work with the bank, and
lived there for almost 11 years. That is where I attended grammar school and high school, at the American
School of the Presbyterian Church. It was during my final year of high school when I decided to enter the
seminary to learn more about the Catholic Church, for it had only been a year that I had begun to participate in a
much more committed way in the Church.
So here I am in the seminary, and towards the end of that year, my family, due to the tragedy of the Nevado del
Ruiz (November 13, 1985 when close to 30,000 people died) they moved to Girardot where they still live today
with my nephew. We had already been through hardship when my father suffered an accident and was left a
paraplegic; this was due to a car accident cause by a driver under the influence of drugs who struck him and his
friend as they walked away from their place of employment. My father not only outlived this first incident but
survived the catastrophe of the volcano eruption with the help of my younger sister who drag him up a hill to
safety where they both survived the dark night of November 13th. After this stage of my life I moved forward in
my priestly formation enrolling at the Congregation of Jesus and Mary of the Eudists Fathers, then at Minute of
God which is non-profit spiritual organization of Catholic religious and moving on to Javeriana University,
where I received my degrees in philosophy and theology.
I arrived in the United States in 1996 and have performed as the chaplain at the university; then studied
Spirituality and Eastern Medicine and did an internship at Andrews Air Force AFB in Washington; then in New
York I was director of a program for the prevention, care and support of people with HIV / AIDS; I was a
family chaplain and assistant at the A-1 Morgue throughout efforts and at Ground Zero (9/11); I also worked as
chaplain for the New York City Hospital, where I also achieved my certifications as "Counselor for alcohol and
substances abuse” and "family mediator" (conflict resolution). For four years I also participated as a counselor /
chaplain for the Domestic Violence Bureau of the District Attorney’s office at the Center for Family Justice. In
St. John's University, achieved my Masters in Theology with an emphasis on Social Assistance.
After serving 9 months in the parish in Sea Girt for the Diocese of Trenton, Bishop Smith asked if I would be
his secretary, where I served until his retirement. After the transition of bishops I was sent to Rome where I
finish my degree in Moral studies, with emphasis in BioEthics (my thesis was based on pain and suffering). I
then began my first year in the doctorate program and have since completed it. I write about Neurobiology of
Morals, to have a better understanding of Empathy, of nature and the reasoning for our actions.
Now I am here with you, I will continue to write my life’s history… the difference being that now I want to also
be part of your history and I want you to be a part of mine.
God bless you, from the heart: Fr. Cesar A . Rubiano

LETTURA DEL GIORNO
SOLTANTO IN DIO
Isaia ci parla oggi di Ciro, Re della
Persia, consacrato dal Signore. Dio
chiama Ciro per nome e lo guida al
servizio degli Israeliti. In questo brano
sentiamo che e’ il Signore che da’ il titolo a Ciro,
che lo arma contro i suoi nemici, e che apre le porte
e sbarra i cancelli in fronte a lui. E Dio fa tutto
questo in modo che il popolo potra’ sapere che “Io
sono il SIGNORE”, e “che non c’e’ altro fuori di
me” (Isaia 45:6). San Paolo inizia questa lettera
essenzialmente con la stessa nozione--- che soltanto
in Dio noi troviamo la nostra grazia e la pace. San
Paolo rende grazie a Dio per noi, richiamando il
nostro lavoro di fede, speranza e carita’. E nella
familiare lettura del Vangelo, Gesu’ dice ai Farisei di
dare a Cesare quello che e’ di Cesare e a Dio quello
che e’ di Dio.

READING OF THE DAY
IN GOD ALONE
Isaiah speaks to us today of Cyrus,
King of Persia, anointed by the Lord.
God calls Cyrus by name and leads
him in service to the Israelites. In this
passage we hear that it is the Lord who gives Cyrus
his title, who arms him against his enemies, and who
opens doors and unbars gates before him. And God
does all of this so that the people will know that “I
am the LORD,” and that “there is none besides me”
(Isaiah 45:6).
Paul opens his letter with essentially the same
notion—that in God alone we find our grace and
peace. Paul also gives thanks to God on our behalf,
calling to mind our work of faith, hope, and love.
And in the familiar Gospel reading, Jesus tells the
Pharisees to give to Caesar what is Caesar’s and to
God what is God’s.
TODAY’S READINGS: First Reading: Isaiah 45:1,
4-6 Second Reading: 1 Thessalonians 1:1-5b Gospel:
Matthew 22:15-21.
The Lord is King and there is no other. We are to
render to God, therefore, fitting praise and service,
as is God’s due. God’s word to us, in turn, is a
matter of power and strength, to be lived with
conviction of heart. From Ordo 2014
REFLECTION QUESTIONS OF THE WEEK
ADULT: When they arise, how do you handle
dilemmas between Church values and teachings, and
civil values and teaching?
CHILD: Name some ways you show God the respect
that is due him?

UN MOMENTO PARA PRESENTARME.
Luego de un mes de actividades y de un conocimiento general, de lo que
hacemos y tenemos en nuestra bella parroquia, quiero tomar un tiempo, para
que ustedes también me puedan conocer un poco.
Nací el 14 de octubre de 1967 en un pequeño pueblo de Colombia, llamado
San Juan de Rioseco, del departamento de Cundinamarca, no muy lejos de la
capital del país Bogotá. Es una bella zona por sus paisajes, su gente humilde,
campesina y sencilla. Se trabaja la agricultura especialmente el café y la ganadería.
A los 5 de vivir allí, por el trabajo de mi padre en el banco, nos trasladamos a Armero, en el
departamento del Tolima, donde vivimos casi por once años. Allí hice mi escuela primaria, y
mi secundaria en el Colegio Americano de la Iglesia Presbiteriana. Fue en mi último año de
escuela Secundaria donde decidí entrar al seminario y conocer más de la Iglesia Católica,
pues solo por un año había participado en ella de manera más comprometida.
Yo me fui al seminario, y mi familia durante el final de ese año, debido a la tragedia del Ruiz –
el 13 de noviembre de 1985-, donde murieron casi 30.000 personas, se trasladó a Girardot,
donde viven ahora mis padres y mi sobrino. Ya habíamos sido tocados fuertemente por el
accidente de mi padre, que quedó parapléjico debido a un accidente de un hombre que
conducía bajo las influencias de drogas, y lo estrelló a él y a otro amigo, cuando caminaban al
salir de sus trabajos. Mi padre sobrevivió no solo a este primer incidente, más aún lo hizo
durante la tragedia del volcán, con la ayuda de mi hermana menor, quien lo arrastró hasta una
colina, pudieron sobrevivir esa noche oscura del 13 de Noviembre. Pase luego a mi formación
sacerdotal, que la hice en la Congregación de Jesús y María de los Padres Eudistas, fue en el
Minuto de Dios y en la Universidad Pontificia Javeriana, donde aprendí mi filosofía y teología.
Llegue a los Estados Unidos en 1996, he sido capellán Universitario; luego me forme en
Espiritualidad y Medicina con visión oriental , con una práctica en la Base Aérea Air Force
Andrews en Washington; después en Nueva York fui director de una Fundación para la
prevención, asistencia y ayuda de personas con VIH’SIDA; capellán familiar y asistente en A1, en la Morgue, durante todo el tiempo que duraron los esfuerzos y trabajo en Ground Zero
(9/11); trabaje como capellán para un Hospital de la Ciudad de New York, donde además
logre mis licencias como “consejero para substancias adictivas y alcoholismo”, y “mediador
familiar” (en resolución de conflictos). Por cuatro años participé igualmente como
consejero/capellán para la oficina de Violencia Domestica del Abogado del Distrito, en el
Centro de Justicia Familiar. En St. John´s University, logre mi Maestría en Teología, con
énfasis en Asistencia Social.
Luego de servir 9 meses en la Parroquia de Sea Girt en nuestra diócesis, el Obispo Smith, me
pidió ser su Secretario, donde le pude servir hasta su retiro. Luego de la transición entre los
Obispos, fui enviado a Roma, donde terminé mi Licencia en Moral, con énfasis en Bioética
(con una tesis acerca del dolor y el sufrimiento). Comencé luego mi primer año de mi
doctorado, el que pude terminar. Escribo sobre la Neurobiología de la Moral, para
comprender más acerca de la Empatía, y de la naturaleza y el por qué de nuestras acciones.
Ahora, aquí con ustedes, seguiré escribiendo la historia de mi vida…La diferencia es que
ahora quiero igualmente ser parte de su historia y que ustedes sean parte de la mía.
Dios les bendiga. De corazón,
Fr. Cesar A. Rubiano

Yo te invoco porque tú me respondes, Dios mío; atiéndeme y
escucha mis palabras. Cuídame como a la niña de tus ojos y
cúbreme bajo la sombra de tus alas
(Salmo 129, 3-4)
594
LECTURA DEL DÍA
SÓLO EN DIOS
Isaías nos habla hoy de Ciro, el rey de
Persia, ungido del Señor. Dios llama a
Ciro por su nombre y lo conduce a
servir a los israelitas. En este pasaje
oímos que es el Señor quien le da a Ciro su título,
quien lo arma contra sus enemigos, y quien abre los
portones, y no deja nada trancado ante él. Y Dios hace
todo esto para que su pueblo llegue a saber que “yo
soy el SEÑOR,” y que “no hay otro” (Isaías 45:6).
Pablo abre su carta esencialmente con la misma
noción, que sólo en Dios podemos hallar gracia y paz.
Pablo también da gracias a Dios en nuestro nombre,
recordando nuestro trabajo fatigoso de fe, esperanza y
amor. Y en la familiar lectura del Evangelio, Jesús
dice a los fariseos que den al César lo que es del César
y a Dios lo que es de Dios.

¿POR QUÉ DIOS PERMITE EL DOLOR?
Esta es una de las mejores explicaciones que he
visto, sobre por qué Dios permite el dolor y
sufrimiento...
Un hombre va a una barbería para hacerse u corte
de cabello y una afeitada. Mientras el barbero inicia
su trabajo, ambos inician una interesante
conversación.
Ellos empezaron a conversar sobre diferentes cosas
y temas. Después, eventualmente tocaron el tema de
Dios, y el barbero dijo: “Yo no creo que Dios
exista”.
“¿Por qué dice eso?” preguntó el cliente.
“Bueno, sólo basta salir a las calles y ver que Dios
no existe. Dígame, si Dios existiera ¿podría haber
tanta gente enferma?, ¿habrían tantos niños
abandonados? Si Dios existiera, no habría
sufrimiento o dolor. No puedo imaginar como un
Dios amoroso puede permitir que sucedan esta clase
de cosas.”
El cliente pensó por un momento, pero no quiso
responder porque no quería iniciar una discusión. El
barbero terminó su trabajo y el cliente salió del
local.
Justo después de abandonar la barbería, el cliente
vio a un hombre en la calle, con el cabello largo,
sucio, desmarañado y una barba sin cortar. Se veía
sucio y desordenado.
Entonces el cliente regresó a la barbaría y dijo:
“¿Sabe qué? Los barberos no existen”. “¿Cómo
puede decir eso?, ¡Yo soy un barbero y acabo de
hacerle un trabajo!”, dijo el barbero. “¡No!”,
exclamó el cliente. “Los barberos no existen
realmente, porque si existieran, no habría gente con
el cabello largo y sucio y la barba sin cortar, como
ese muchacho que está afuera de su barbería”. “¡Ah,
los barberos si existen!. Lo que pasa es que la gente
no viene a mí”, dijo el barbero. “¡Exactamente”!,
dijo el cliente. “¡Ese es el punto”!, ¡Dios también
existe! Lo que pasa es que la gente no va hacia Él
en busca de ayuda. Es por eso que hay tanto dolor y
sufrimiento en el mundo.”

IS GOD CALLING YOU?
Vocational discernment groups meet to assist young
men who are discerning the possibility that God may be
calling them to a life of priestly ministry. These groups
are designed to explore a priestly vocation with other
like-minded men through prayer and sharing vocation
stories and experiences. The group meetings are not
meant to convince anyone that the priesthood is their
vocation. They are designed to assist you in discovering
if the priesthood is your true vocation and build your
relationship with Christ along the way. If you are a
faithful, single Roman Catholic man, between the ages
of 18 and 40, and are asking yourself whether God is
calling you to be a priest, you are cordially invited to
attend this month’s discernment on October 26, from
4:00PM to 6:00PM at St. Gregory the Great Parish, 4620
Nottingham Way, Hamilton Sq, NJ. Join Rev. Michael
McClane and Rev. Tom Vala, as they share their
experiences of the priesthood, followed by prayer and
concluding with a great meal and conversation.
Please register with the Dioceses of Trenton Vocation
Office at [email protected] or by calling
609-406-7449. Join us at this exciting time as you
discover and respond to His invitation!
