DIVINE MERCY SUNDAY

(Readings: Acts 2:42-47 — 1st Peter 1:3-9 — John 20:19-31)

Faith — We tend to think of faith as a matter of the mind, like the knowledge or awareness of any truth. But we see in today’s readings that faith is much more. The first community of believers was led by faith

to share with one another everything they had. The believers to whom St. Peter wrote were willing to prove their faith through trials. And Thomas the Apostle, once overwhelmed by faith in the Risen Christ, cried out from the depth of his being: “My Lord and my God!” In the case of the Apparition of Our Lady of

La Salette, the response of those who came to believe took primarily two forms. First was a return to the practice of their faith. Maximin’s father, Mr. Giraud, like Thomas in the Gospel, did not come to this belief easily. But once he did become a believer, the first thing he did was to go to confession. After that, he went

to Mass every day for the rest of his life. (He died nearly two and a half years later.) A second response was a deeper understanding of Mary’s role in our life. It was ordinary believers, not the official Church,

that gave Our Lady of La Salette her title, Reconciler of Sinners. Yes, reconciliation with God, reconcilia-tion with the Church—Mr. Giraud is a good example—these are the natural and spontaneous effects of faith in the Beautiful Lady. And, like the faith shown in today’s readings, it leads us to “rejoice with an indescribable and glorious joy,” “with exultation and sincerity of heart,” just as “the disciples rejoiced

when they saw the Lord.” Perhaps we ourselves have experienced periods of doubt. We all know people who have little or no faith. This is distressing to anyone who understands the real difference between

ordinary knowledge and faith. Knowledge has to do with content, with facts that can be useful, fascinating, even beautiful. But ultimately they don’t really matter. St. Thomas Aquinas, one of the greatest theologians

in history, realized one day that all he had written was just so much straw. Faith affects us in so many important ways, and provides a solid foundation for our lives. Faith matters.

“Let Your Light Shine”

In today’s first reading, the four ac vi es of the earliest church are introduced to us as priori es of the church: devo on to the teachings of the apostles, communal fellowship, the Eucharist and prayer. The early members of the church saw themselves as devoted stewards of these ac vi es. These were not op-

ons. They were the fruits of a genuine conversion to a life in Christ. Sharing in the Eucharist was the most in mate expres-sion of fellowship, while the most common expression of fel-lowship in the New Testament was that of sharing financial resources – giving. It was not a perfect community, but one that gave evidence of God’s ac ve presence in its midst. This early community offers us an excellent example of how to be er exercise stewardship in our own parish families.

Reflexión….

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE El 20 de abril de 1906 los ojos de una imagen de la Dolorosa comenzaron a parpadear durante un lapso de 15 minutos en el colegio jesuita San Gabriel, en Quito, Ecuador. En 1995 en Cochabamba, Bolivia, donde una imagen del Divino rostro lagri-mó sangre y después, una imagen de la Inmaculada hizo lo mismo. En el transcurso del siglo veinte, muchísimas imágenes de Cristo, María e incluso, el Espíritu Santo, llora-ron lágrimas de agua, sangre u óleo, emitieron aroma de rosa o mostraron alguna mani-festación paranormal. La ciencia logró explicar algunos de estos fenómenos, pero en muchos casos no

fue posible. Normalmente, la jerarquía eclesiástica prefiere no hacer declaraciones oficiales al respecto, por lo menos, no antes de mucho escrutinio. El apóstol san Juan recomienda examinar cada espíritu (1 Juan 4:1-3) y esto es lo que la Iglesia hace con estas manifestaciones sobrenaturales. Con investigaciones científicas, social-es y espirituales se examinan cuidadosamente estas manifestaciones a fin de asegurar que provienen de Dios y no del diablo u otros orígenes. En fin, la mejor prueba de la veracidad de estos fenómenos es la conversión de los fieles. —Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.

La Fe (Segundo Domingo de Pascua: Hechos 2,42-47; 1 Pedro 1,3-9; Juan 20:19-31) Tendemos a pensar en la fe como un asunto mental, como un conocimiento o con-ciencia de cualquier verdad. Pero vemos en las lecturas de hoy que la fe es mucho más que eso. La primera comunidad de los creyentes se sen a guiada por una fe que los llevaba a compar r con los demás todo lo que tenían. Aquellos creyentes a quienes San Pedro escribió, tenían el deseo de hacer evidente su fe por medio de las pruebas. Y Tomás el Apóstol, exaltado por la fe en Cristo Resucitado, exclamó desde lo más profundo de sus ser: “Señor mío y Dios mío” En el caso de la Aparición de Nuestra Señora de La Sale e, la repuesta de los que llegaron a creer tomó ini-cialmente dos formas. La primera era un retomar la prác ca de su fe. El padre de Maximino, el Sr. Giraud, como Tomás en el Evan-gelio, no llego a creer de manera fácil. Pero una vez que se convir ó en creyente, la primera cosa que hizo fue ir a confesarse. Después de eso, fue a misa a misa todos los días por el resto de su vida. (Murió cerca de dos años y medio después) La segunda fue una profundización en el entendimiento del rol de María en nuestra vida. Eran los creyentes comunes, no la Iglesia oficial, los que le dieron a Nuestra Señora de La Sale e su tulo de Reconciliadora de los pecadores. Sí, la reconciliación con Dios, la reconciliación con la Iglesia – el Señor Giraud es un buen ejemplo de ello – estos son efectos naturales y espontáneos de fe en la Bella Señora. Y, como la fe de la que se nos habla en la lecturas de hoy, nos lleva a “Regocijarnos con una alegría gloriosa e indescrip ble”, “con exultación y sincer-idad de corazón” justamente como “los discípulos que se regocijaron cuando vieron al Señor” Tal vez nosotros mismos hemos experimentado periodos de duda. Todos conocemos a gente que ene poca o nada de fe. Esto es muy entristecedor para cualquiera que en ende la diferencia real entre el saber nor-mal y la fe. El saber ene que ver con el contenido, con hechos que pueden ú les, fascinantes y hasta hermosos. Pero después de todo no son realmente importantes. Santo Tomas de Aquino, uno de los más grandes teólogos, se dio cuenta un día que todo lo que había escrito era justo eso, demasiada cáscara. La fe nos afecta de muchas importantes maneras, y nos provee un sólido fundamento para nuestras vidas. La fe es importante. (Traducido por Hno. Moisés Rueda MS, Cochabamba, Bolivia)


Exposición del Santísimo Todos los primeros viernes del mes tendremos exposición al Santísimo. Empezando después de la misa de las 8:30 de la mañana y terminando a las 9:00 de la noche con el grupo de oración. También todos los lunes hay adoración desde las 9am a las 3pm. En la capilla en el Centro de Bienvenida. ¡Invitamos a todos a que nos acompañen a vivir momentos de oración y recogimiento!

¡ENTERESE!

¡Marca tu calendario! El Seminario Vida en el Espíritu será presentado en ingles a partir de las 9:30 am del

sábado 22 de abril de 2017 y continuará durante 7 semanas consecutivas en la Capilla del

Centro de Bienvenida. Esta es una oportunidad para establecer, restablecer o profundizar

una relación individual con Dios a través de Jesús, el Cristo y experimentar una vida más

plena en el Espíritu. Para más información, llame a Betty Ligas 407-859-0845
