27. August
Hl. Joseph Calasanz, Bekenner
Donnerstag nach dem 13. Sonntag nach Pfingsten
Am heutigen Tag feiert der traditionelle römische Kalender von 1962 das Fest des heiligen Joseph Calasanz, Bekenners. Joseph Calasanz (1557–1648) wurde im Jahr 1557 in Peralta de la Sal im heutigen Spanien geboren und wirkte später vor allem in Rom. In einer Zeit großer sozialer Unterschiede und Herausforderungen engagierte sich Calasanz besonders für die kostenlose Bildung armer Kinder. Im Jahr 1597 gründete er in Rom die erste öffentliche kostenlose Volksschule Europas, was in der damaligen Gesellschaft als revolutionär galt. Aus dieser Initiative erwuchs später der Orden der Piaristen (Orden der Armen Regularkleriker der Mutter Gottes frommen Schulen), der sich heute weltweit der Erziehung und Bildung widmet. Besonders zu würdigen ist der unbeirrbare Glaube des Heiligen, welcher ihn durch viele Prüfungen führte – er musste Verleumdungen, Anfeindungen und innere Kämpfe im Orden ertragen, auf die er stets mit Geduld, Demut und Festigkeit antwortete. Die heutige liturgische Feier im traditionellen Kalender ehrt ihn als 'Bekenner' (Confessor), um seine treue Nachfolge Christi in Lehre und Tat hervorzuheben. Sie ist ein Zeugnis der Wertschätzung, die die Kirche den Gründern christlicher Erziehung und Fürsprechern der Armen gegenüber zeigt. Durch die jährliche Feier dieses Festes lehrt der alte liturgische Kalender, dass echte Nachfolge Christi in tätiger Nächstenliebe und Gottvertrauen besteht – ein Vorbild, das auch heute aktuell bleibt.

Latein
Léctio libri Sapiéntiæ
Sap 10:10-14
Iustum dedúxit Dóminus per vias rectas, et ostendit illi regnum Dei, et dedit illi sciéntiam sanctórum: honestávit illum in labóribus, et complévit labores illíus. In fraude circumveniéntium illum áffuit illi, et honéstum fecit illum. Custodívit illum ab inimícis, et a seductóribus tutávit illum, et certámen forte dedit illi, ut vínceret et sciret, quóniam ómnium poténtior est sapiéntia. Hæc vénditum iustum non derelíquit, sed a peccatóribus liberávit eum: descendítque cum illo in fóveam, et in vínculis non derelíquit illum, donec afférret illi sceptrum regni, et poténtiam advérsus eos, qui eum deprimébant: et mendáces osténdit, qui maculavérunt illum, et dedit illi claritátem ætérnam, Dóminus, Deus noster.
℟. Deo grátias.

Lesson from the book of Wisdom
Wis 10:10-14
The Lord guided the just in direct ways, showed him the kingdom of God, and gave him knowledge of holy things; He prospered him in his labors and made abundant the fruit of his works, stood by him against the greed of his defrauders, and enriched him; He preserved him from foes, and secured him against ambush, and He gave him the prize for his stern struggle that he might recognize that devotion to God is mightier than all else. He did not abandon the just man when he was sold, but delivered him from sin. He went down with him into the dungeon, and did not desert him in his bonds, until He brought him the scepter of royalty and authority over his oppressors, and showed those who had defamed him false; and the Lord our God gave him eternal glory.
℟. Thanks be to God.

In illo témpore: Accessérunt discípuli ad Iesum, dicéntes: Quis, putas, maior est in regno cœlorum? Et ádvocans Iesus parvulum, státuit eum in médio eórum et dixit: Amen, dico vobis, nisi convérsi fuéritis et efficiámini sicut párvuli, non intrabitis in regnum cœlórum. Quicúmque ergo humiliáverit se sicut párvulus iste, hic est maior in regno cœlorum. Et qui suscéperit unum párvulum talem in nómine meo, me súscipit.

℟. Glory be to Thee, O Lord.
Matt 18:1-5
At that time, the disciples came to Jesus, saying, Who then is greatest in the kingdom of heaven? And Jesus called a little child to Him, set him in their midst, and said, Amen I say to you, unless you turn and become like little children, you will not enter into the kingdom of heaven. Whoever, therefore, humbles himself as this little child, he is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoever receives one such little child for My sake, receives Me.
