Fifth Sunday of Easter
Dear Sisters and Brothers,
The calendar spring started in March, but the change to warmer weather is
perceived now with the visible signs of spring flowers, trees blooming, and grass
starting to take off. We could say it is all fruit of the Resurrection of Jesus, that brings
new life to every aspect of our lives. An Easter lily, is one of the symbols of
Resurrection, dressed in a “white cloth “that was left by Christ in the tomb, creating a
harmony with it. It is a beautiful feeling to perceive spring as a factor of Resurrection,
as a consequence of it. Without Resurrection, the spring was destined to die permanently one day, but with the
Resurrection it is destined to be eternal like Christ. If there is beauty in newness of life, Christ makes it
eternal, unending. By faith in Christ we acquire rights to that eternal spring. Like that grain of wheat from the
parable, that sawn to the ground is lost to itself, but it comes back to life in multiple seeds with great
fruitfulness and infinite perspective of becoming countless.
In the parable of this Sunday, Jesus compares our dependence of Resurrection on Jesus, to the fruitful-
ness and growth of the vine, that is dependent on being connected to the stem of the vine prepared to power all
necessary growth and fruitfulness of this vine. The vine needs to be pruned to produce a good fruits, and the
new branch by itself cannot produce the fruits without total dependence on the old stem of the vine. Without
Christ, there is no Resurrection. Without Christ, there is no eternal life. Without Christ, life ends in the tomb.
Lord, give us that gift of eternal life, give us the blessings of friendship with You. Friendship that will carry us
to eternal life with you.
Last Sunday we accepted you as our Good Shepherd, please guide us to the eternal pastures. This and
next Sunday we will have children receive their First Communion, they will be invited to nourish themselves
for eternal life, to receive the abundance of blessings and fullness of happiness from Jesus.
This year we will have 136 children and youth receive their First Communion, at four Sunday Masses,
that is 9:00 am, and 11:00 am this and next Sunday. We congratulate them for entering the new stage of their
lives of particular closeness to Christ through Holy Communion. I am always amazed when the little children
of preschool age desire to receive Communion based on their observance of their parents and siblings receiv-
ing it. Lord give us that hunger for you always, and bless the parents of those children with a strong faith and
perseverance in perusing the gift of eternal happiness with Christ. There is no happiness without Christ, with
Him there is the abundance of happiness and fullness of joy. Lord, lead all the family’s of First Communion
children to that fullness of joy and happiness with you, in pursuing your friendship daily. What joy it is to
have you Jesus as a personal friend and guide for individual and for whole family ??? Let us not loose the
appreciation of the love and sacrifice that Jesus shared with us, let’s treasure it and grow in intimate friendship
with Christ. Let’s be driven to become faithful friends of Jesus worthy of the gifts of his love.
God bless everyone !!!
God bless you always !!!

La Alegoría de la Vid (Jn 1, 1-8)
La alegoría de la Vid es complementaria de la parábola del Buen Pastor, también podemos decir
que hay una mutua dependencia entre sus “componentes”: Vid-sarmientos, Pastor-ovejas…en
ambos hay como una mutua dependencia, o una conexión intima, al final una aspiración
suprema: Vid que da la savia a los sarmientos unidos a ella y/o el Buen pastor que da la vida por
las ovejas. En cualquier caso, entendemos que es Cristo que da o se da todo para que nosotros
tengamos vida. La Palabra y la Eucaristía son ese elemento que hoy -cada domingo- comunica lo
mejor de quien lo origina: del Padre (Labrador), y del Hijo (Vid)…y del E.S. (Savia: Gracia).
La clave en todo esto es el permanecer…mantenerse unidos, si algo se separa de la fuente de
vida se seca, o se queda estéril. Pasa con los árboles, con la tierra y con las personas. También,
se puede ser una rama lozana de un arbusto, llena de hojas pero que no da fruto (y de eso hay
mucho en todos los ambientes). Es aquello de la fe, sin o con obras. Uno es cristiano de nombre
(bautizado católico y devoto de la Virgencita…etc.), o cristiano activo (bautizado también, muy
mariano y piadoso), lleno de frutos o de buenas obras. En el primer caso, no se soporta
“la poda”, en el segundo, la poda se vuelve hasta necesaria, una exigencia, o algo que se busca,
digamos que esta relacionado un poco con la Conversión y con un estilo de vida. Bendiciones.

La première communion : un peu d'histoire
Longtemps, l'Eglise a cru bon de retarder l'accès à ce sacrement.
L'usage antique, conservé dans l'Eglise d'Orient, était de donner la communion à l'enfant le jour de
son baptême sous la forme du vin. La communion par le vin disparaît en Occident vers le XIIe siècle.
On dissocie alors la communion du baptême. Le Concile de Latran IV (1215) prescrit d'attendre l' âge
de "discrétion", entre 10 et 16 ans. Antonin de Florence recommande 9 ans et demi pour les filles et
10 et demi pour les garçons. En France depuis le XVIIe siècle se répand la pratique de la communion
solennelle inventée par Monsieur Vincent (de Paul) et les grands missionnaires. Vêtement blanc,
cierge, renonciation à Satan et profession de foi, la communion solennelle est célébrée vers 12 ans.
La première communion devient la "communion privée". Au XIXe siècle, Rome encourage une
communion des enfants vers 7 ans. En 1910, le pape Pie X demande dans l'encyclique Quam Singula-
ris que les enfants puissent communier à partir de 7 ans, il pose deux conditions : l'enfant doit pouvoir
distinguer le pain ordinaire du pain eucharistique et croire en Dieu, à la Trinité et à l'incarnation.
Depuis 1983, le Code de l'Eglise dit " Pour que la très Sainte Eucharistie puisse être donnée aux
enfants, il est requis qu'ils aient une connaissance suffisante et qu'ils aient reçu une préparation
soignée, de sorte qu'ils comprennent le mystère du Christ à la mesure de leur capacité et puissent
recevoir le Corps du Seigneur avec foi et dévotion".
