Reflections ~ Reflexiones GGoossppeell:: MMaarrkk 1155:: 11--3399 This Palm Sunday reading of the Passion of the Lord is taken from Mark's Gospel. It was the first written account of how Jesus suffered and died. It is also the shortest version of the Passion and is written almost like a newspaper story that presents "just the facts." The most important truth Mark wants to communicate is that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, whose suffering leads to glory. When Jesus cries out from the cross, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" (Psalm 22:1), he is praying in the words of the psalmist who continues to trust God even when all seems hopeless. As we read or listen to the Passion, we try to unite ourselves with Jesus and all those who suffer injustice in today's world.

1.) Why do you think people in crowds sometimes act in ways that they as individuals would never do? What insights into human behavior does the Passion of Jesus give you? How will you show this week that you honor Jesus as the Messiah and Son of God?

EEvvaannggeelliioo:: MMaarrccoo 1155:: 11--3399 La lectura para este Domingo de Ramos está tomada del Evangelio de Marcos. Este fue el primer recuento escrito de cómo Jesús sufrió y murió. Es también la versión más corta de la pasión y está escrita como una crónica que sólo presenta los hechos. La verdad más importante que Marcos quiere comunicar es que Jesús es el Mesías, el Hijo de Dios, cuyo sufrimiento lo llevó a la gloria. Cuando Jesús grita en la cruz. "Dios mío, Dios mío, ¿por qué me has abandonado?" Él está recitando las palabras del salmista quien sigue confiando en Dios aun cuando todo parece perdido. Mientras escuchamos o leemos la pasión, tratemos de unirnos con Jesús y con todo el que sufre injusticia en el mundo hoy. 1.) ¿Por qué crees que las personas en la multitud algunas veces actúan en forma que nunca lo harían como individuos? ¿Qué ideas sobre el comportamiento humano te ofrece la pasión de Jesús? ¿cómo mostrarás esta semana que honras a Jesús como el Mesías Hijo de Dios?

Pastor’s Message~ Mensaje del Párroco WWEE DDOONN''TT GGOO AALLOONNEE Jesus, the humble village carpenter, frequently attracted large crowds with his preaching. A moment of apparent triumph and glory came when these same people in Jerusalem acclaimed him as king, probably hoping he would be a new military leader and

overthrow the occupying Romans. This "triumph" was brief, however. In a few days the same crowds turned on him. Pontius Pilate, the Roman governor, didn't know what to make of him. Jesus was obviously no common criminal. He spoke truthfully and was not cowed in Pilate's presence. Yet Pilate finally gave up and had Jesus put to death. Ever since that first Good Friday, those who pass through the darkest nights know they don't go alone. For each of us Jesus obediently and willingly entered the pain and sorrow of humanity. He counted the milestones along the way of despair, and fell into the abyss of death. There are no dead-end streets anymore. For us, at the end of every road, there shines the light of Christ.

NNOO VVAAMMOOSS SSOOLLOOSS Jesús, el humilde carpintero de la aldea, atraía frecuentemente grandes multitudes con su prédica. Hubo un aparente momento de triunfo y gloria cuando estas multitudes lo aclamaron como rey en Jerusalén, probablemente esperando que él

fuera un nuevo líder militar que depusiera la ocupación de los romanos. Sin embargo, este "triunfo" fue breve. Unos pocos días más tarde esta misma gente se reviró contra él. Poncio Pilato, el procurador romano, se sentía confundido. Obviamente Jesús no era un criminal común. Hablaba con la verdad y no se acobardaba en presencia de Pilato. Sin embargo, Pilato finalmente se dio por vencido y condenó a muerte a Jesús. Desde ese primer Viernes Santo todos los que pasan por tiempos tenebrosos saben que no van solos. Por voluntad propia Jesús asumió el dolor y la angustia de la humanidad y de cada uno de nosotros. Él venció por el camino del dolor y bajó al abismo de la muerte. Ya no hay callejones sin salida para nosotros. Al final de cualquier camino brilla para nosotros la luz de Cristo.

Salubong depicts a re-enactment of the Resurrected Christ meeting His Mother Mary. There will be two processions starting simultaneously at 4:30am from the Cafeteria and O’Keefe Hall followed by a mass at 5:00am. We are looking for families to participate, especially for boys and girls of ANY age to act as angels. Please call Julinda Pastor at 415-587-9302 or the Parish Office at 415-333-7630. EExxppoossiittiioonn ooff tthhee BBlleesssseedd SSaaccrraammeenntt:: There will be Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament on Friday, April 6th from 8:30am-5:00pm, with Benediction at 5:00pm.

We are motivated by the Gospel of Jesus Christ to cherish, preserve and uphold the sacredness and dignity of all human life, foster charity and justice, and embody Catholic social and moral teaching as we act to: Promote human development by responding to major emergencies, fighting disease and poverty, and nurturing peaceful and just societies; and, Serve Catholics in the United States as they live their faith in solidarity with their brothers and sisters around the world.

Thank you for your generosity. BBeellllss,, BBeellllss,, BBeellllss:: Don’t forget to bring small bells to ring during the Gloria at the Easter Vigil (March 31st). PPaassssiioonn:: The contrast between the processional reading in today’s liturgy and the proclamation of the Passion is striking. We are given a glimpse of how profoundly the word of God is fulfilled in Jesus. First he must be hailed as the Messiah, the One who is to come. He must be acknowledged by all, though they do not know what they are saying. They think he is the promised king, a worldly king of the Jews who will free them from the Roman occupation. They do not yet understand, even the disciples, exactly where this triumphal procession is leading. In our lives, we too do not know where we are going. It is in faith that we can follow Christ wherever he may lead us, trusting that death is not the end, nor evil the victor. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.

TTrreeaassuurreess FFrroomm OOuurr TTrraaddiittiioonn:: For many centuries, Christian pilgrims have longed to walk in the footsteps of Jesus, and on Passion Sunday the eyes of the world are on the Via Dolorosa, the “Road of Sorrows,” in Jerusalem. As soon as it became safe for Christians to worship in public in the fourth century, a way was marked out. It was changed a few times over the years, and today’s usual route was sketched by the Franciscans six hundred years ago, although Anglicans and Byzantines have their own unique detours. Friday is the most favored day, although it is crowded then. Almost everyone begins at the Lion’s Gate in the Muslim Quarter, and ends at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. It’s less than a quarter mile, but it threads its way through crowded markets with souvenir shops and fast-food snacks. There are, just as in your parish church, fourteen stations along the way. The exact spots are not known, but what matters is the pilgrim’s unique ability to see even an ordinary road in a teeming city as something more than meets the eye. —Rev. James Field, Copyright © J.

LLaa PPaallaabbrraa ddee DDiiooss ccoonn eell DDiiaaccoonnoo:: Hoy Domingo 25 de marzo, después de la misa de las 11:30am, tendremos el privilegio de crecer y aumentar nuestra fe, escuchando la Palabra de Dios con el Diacono Manuel Ocón. Usted y su familia están invitados a pasar a la Cafetería de la escuela. ¡Los esperamos.

LLaa PPaassiióónn:: El contraste entre la lectura procesional de la liturgia de hoy y la proclamación de la Pasión es asombroso. Vislumbramos cuán profundamente la Palabra de Dios se cumple en Jesús. Primero Jesús debe ser acogido como el Mesías, el que viene en nombre del Señor. Debe ser reconocido por todos, aunque no sepan lo que están diciendo. Todos piensan que es el rey prometido; un rey terrenal de los judíos que los librará de la ocupación romana. No comprenden todavía, ni siquiera los discípulos, exactamente a dónde se dirige su procesión triunfal. Nosotros tampoco sabemos a dónde estamos yendo en nuestra vida. En la fe podemos seguir a Cristo dondequiera que nos guíe, porque estamos seguros de que la muerte no es el final y el mal no será el vencedor. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.
