“Let us place our City in the loving hands of God”

Sunday’s Message John 16: 12-15

THE MYSTERY OF THE HOLY TRINITY

For many people, speaking of the Trinity is equal to using incomprehensible words, and surrounding the whole subject in confusion and mystery. The principal mission of Christ, God incarnate, who became for us Word and Message, is to make known with love and clarity the mystery of God. He is a God near to us, who is One, yet reveals Himself

in three Persons, who comes to us by means of three different manifestations, thus realizing three distinct missions.

All of this, which is apparently very difficult to understand with human reason alone, is easily perceived and lived within our heart, which, in addition, is many times a mystery to these same human beings. When we know and meditate on all that Jesus has told us about God the Father, and God the Holy Spirit, we cannot confound God with some omnipotent Person, self-sufficient, distant and solitary, far removed from the world and unconcerned with human affairs.

For me, it is perfectly clear that God is a Father, One who loves us like a father or mother, and who wants us to love each other like brother/sisters and friends. And those who have experienced this love in their hearts and in their relationships can understand, in accordance with Christ's revelation about God's love for us, that He is our Father, our Brother, our cherished Friend. Therefore, the mystery of the Trinity is not a theological abstraction of God, but rather a revelation, intimate and loving, of the divine existence.

God is the Father, the Father of Jesus Christ, our Father, but also our Creator, who has given us life, and made us in His image. He has surrounded us with benevolence and compassion, and has placed at our disposal the entirety of creation that we might enjoy it, care for it, develop it, and thus achieve happiness. And He has reserved for us the supreme bliss of eternal happiness in Heaven.

God is the Son, our Brother, who has decided to be one of us, and become man in the womb of Mary, and has desired to share our same destiny: our joys and sorrows, dreams and fears. He goes before us, showing us the way, and giving us an example. He illuminates the meaning of life by His resurrection, a foretaste of ours, and the foundation of our hope and of the joy of life.

God is the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of God, who is Gift, and who enriches us with all the treasures of His being. Because of this Spirit, we are the image of God, we are His visible presence, His infinite kindness, and His providence, which cares for everyone and everything.

PastorPastor’’s Notess Notes

“The Spirit of truth will guide you to all truth. He will glorify Me. Everything that the Father has is Mine; for this reason I told you that he will take from what is Mine and declare it to you”.

Today’s feast of the Trinity calls us to recognize the fingerprints of God in every molecule of creation, in every moment of inspiration, in every work of peace. Faith begins with realizing the Spirit of God breathing life into all that exists.

Faith then compels us to continue the creative work of God, to embrace and be embraced by the love of God that envelopes every wonder of nature and every manifestation of compassion.

May God, the Giver and the Author of everything that is good, give us the wisdom to discover the goodness in all things and make faithful and hope-filled use of that goodness to transform our lives and world in the life and love of God.

EL MISTERIO DE LA SANTISIMA TRINIDAD Para muchos hablar de la Trinidad es tanto como usar palabras incomprensibles y dejarlo todo envuelto en la confusión y el misterio. La misión principal de Cristo, el Dios encarnado, que se hace Palabra y Comunicación, es manifestarnos con amor y claridad el misterio de Dios: un Dios cercano, que siendo uno solo, se manifiesta en tres personas, viene a nosotros por tres caminos diferentes,

realizando tres misiones distintas.

Todo lo cual, aparentemente muy difícil de entender para el razonamiento humano, es fácil de sentir y vivir dentro de nuestro corazón, que, por otro lado, muchas veces es un misterio para los mismos humanos. Cuando conocemos y meditamos en todo lo que Jesús nos dice de Dios-Padre y de Dios-Espíritu Santo, no podemos confundir a Dios con un personaje omnipotente, autosuficiente, lejano y solitario, ajeno al mundo y despreocupado de los seres humanos.

Para mi está claro que Dios es Padre y que nos quiere como un Padre o como una madre y nos quiere también como se quieren los hermanos y amigos. Y quien haya experimentado este amor en su corazón y en su relación con los humanos, ese puede entender, según la revelación de Cristo cuanto nos quiere Dios, nuestro Padre, nuestro Hermano, nuestro Amigo íntimo. Por eso el misterio de la Trinidad no es confuse alejamiento de Dios, sino explicación cercana y amorosa de la existencia divina. Dios es el Padre, el Padre de Jesucristo, nuestro Padre, pues El es el Creador, que nos ha dado la vida, quien nos hizo semejantes a El. El nos ha rodeado de cuidados y atenciones y ha puesto a nuestra disposición la creación entera para que disfrutemos de ella, cuidándola, desarrollándola y así lograr ser felices. Dios nos tiene reservada una gran sorpresa y es la de hacernos felices totalmente en el cielo. Dios es el Hijo, nuestro hermano, que ha decidido acercase a nosotros y se ha hecho hombre en las entrañas de Maria y ha querido compartir nuestra misma suerte: nuestras alegrías y penas, nuestras ilusiones y temores. El va delante de nosotros aclarando el camino y dándonos ejemplo y aclara el sentido de la vida con su resurrección, prenda de la nuestra y fundamento de nuestra esperanza y del gozo de vivir y convivir. Dios es el Espíritu Santo, el espíritu de Dios, que se hace regalo y nos enriquece con todos los tesoros de su vida. Gracias a este Espíritu somos imagen de Dios, somos su presencia visible, su bondad infinita, su providencia que cuida de todo y de todos.

La Santísima Trinidad

“El Espíritu de la verdad les llevará a la verdad total. El me glorificará a mí. Todo lo que tiene el Padre es mío. Por esta razón les digo que tomará de lo mío y se lo comunicará a ustedes”

Esta Fiesta de la Santísima Trinidad nos invita a descubrir las huellas de Dios en cada molécula de la creación, en cada momento de inspiración, en cada esfuerzo por lograr la paz. Nuestra fe comienza, cuando nos damos cuenta de que el Espíritu de Dios sopla vida en todo lo que existe.

La fe nos empuja a continuar la obra creativa de Dios, a abrazar y dejarse abrazar por el amor de Dios, que se hace presente en todas las maravillas de la naturaleza y en cada manifestación de compasión que tenemos hacia los demás

Que Dios, el Dador y el Autor de todo lo que es bueno, nos de la sabiduría para descubrir la belleza en todas las cosas y nos ayude a usar con fidelidad y esperanza de la bondad, que transforma nuestras existencia y el mundo en vida y en amor de Dios.

EN VERANO CAMBIA HORARIO DE MISAS

Dentro de unos días comenzarán las vacaciones de verano y muchas familias dejarán Key Biscayne para tomar un descanso fuera de la Isla. Dado que en estos meses disminuye la asistencia a la Iglesia; a partir del domingo, día 9 de junio hasta el 1 de septiembre de 2013, el horario de misas de los domingos en St. Agnes será así:

9:00 A.M., 11:00 A.M. y 6:00 P.M. (English) 12:45 P.M. y 7:30 P.M. (Español)

El cambio supone reducir las misas de 8:30 A.M. y 10:00 A.M. a una sola, a las 9:00 AM. Al mismo tiempo la misa de 11:30 A.M. se adelanta media hora, en estos meses será a las 11:00 A.M. La misa de los sábados seguirá como siempre a las 5:30 P.M.. El domingo, día 8 de septiembre regresaremos al horario de siempre.

PROCESION DEL CORPUS CHRISTI 2 DE JUNIO DE 2013

En St. Agnes es ya una tradición la procesión del Corpus Christi. Este año será el domingo, 2 de junio, al finalizar la misa de 12:45 P.M. en donde celebramos la Fiesta del Cuerpo y de la Sangre de Cristo. Después tendremos la procesión por los jardines de la Parroquia, terminando en la Capilla donde quedará expuesto el Santísimo Sacramento. Todos están invitados.

SEGUNDA COLECTA EL 2 DE JUNIO PARA AYUDAR A LA IGLESIA CATOLICA EN

LOS PAISES DE LA EUROPA CENTRAL Y DEL ESTE

Esta Colecta ayuda a reconstruir iglesias, a cubrir gastos en la educación religiosa y moral, atender seminarios y conventos, mantener los medios de comunicación de la Iglesia. Ayudemos con nuestra generosidad a los hermanos que por tantos años sufrieron la persecución del sistema comunista.

DIOS: PADRE, HERMANO Y AMIGO

Gracias, Señor, porque nos amas… tanto que nos has creado con inmenso amor, tanto que nos has regalado un mundo maravilloso, tanto que nos has dado a tu propio Hijo, tanto que nos comunicas tu mismo Espíritu. Gracias, Padre Gracias, Señor, porque te has hecho hombre para compartir nuestra condición y hacernos compartir la tuya divina. Has dado tu vida y has bendecido la muerte, la tuya y la nuestra. Tú nos has descubierto el corazón amoroso del Padre y nos has regalado tu propio Espíritu. Gracias, Jesús, gracias, hermano. Gracias, Señor, porque estás en nosotros haciendo posible nuestra vida de hijos de Dios. Tú eres el secreto del misterio de amor de la Trinidad, Tú, el alma de la unidad de la Iglesia, Tú, el inspirador de la unidad del género humano. Gracias, Espíritu Santo, gracias amigo. Gracias de todo corazón, Señor, nuestro Padre, nuestro hermano, nuestro amigo. Gracias, Señor, Dios uno y trino.
