THIRD SUNDAY OF EASTER
“PEACE BE WITH YOU” :
These are the first words that the apostles heard form Jesus, after
his resurrection:
“Each and every Christian is called to be an instrument of peace
and to reveal the love and name of Jesus”.
What a friend we have in Jesus!
The prophet Isaiah called him, “Prince of Peace”. The angels sang a the birth of
Jesus:
“Glory to God in the highest and peace to his people on earth”.
Baptism is the beginning of a new life of peace with Christ. The world suffers
today because many of God’s people are at war against the love of God.

TERCER DOMINGO DE PASCUA
“LA PAZ ESTE CON USTEDES”:
Estas son las primeras palabras que oyeron los apóstoles de Cristo
resucitado.
Cada uno de los cristianos es un enviado al mundo para revelar el amor y el
nombre de Jesús.
¡Que clase de amigo tenemos en Jesucristo!
El profeta Isaías lo llamó, antes de nacer “Principe de la Paz”. En su
nacimiento los ángeles entonaron cánticos de paz:
“Gloria a Dios en las alturas y paz en la tierra a los hombres de buena voluntad”
El Bautismo es el comienzo de una nueva vida. El mundo sufre hoy porque
muchos hijos de Dios están en guerra en contra de su amor.

APRIL 19, 2015
Reflecting on God’s Word
Some vaccinations only last so long. After a predictable amount of time the immunity wears off and
people are susceptible to the same old disease again.
That’s when it’s time for a booster shot. It seems that
we also need booster shots for faith. Baptism alone is
not enough. The joy and peace that filled our communities two weeks ago are probably starting to flag and
our old selves may be starting to re-emerge. We need
a weekly dose of Resurrection appearances, in the
Eucharist we share.
All three of this week’s readings as well as the psalm
point out the weakness of our human faith. Yet they
emphasize the forgiveness and blessing that are
always available to those who turn to “Jesus Christ
the righteous one.” Can we recognize ourselves in
Luke’s Gospel today? Do we realize how deeply we
depend on our weekly “booster shot” of the Eucharist
to remember and reclaim the saving presence of the
risen Lord?

Living God’s Word
The Eucharist is meant to energize us to take Christ’s
presence out into the world. It may be easy to see
ourselves in today’s scriptures as the weak sinners, but
we should also envision ourselves in the roles of Peter,
John, and Luke. In the Eucharist Jesus feeds us and
sends us to “preach in his name to all the nations” (Luke
24:47). We are his witnesses.

Reflexionemos sobre la Palabra de Dios
El efecto de algunas vacunas es temporal. Después de
un tiempo predecible la inmunidad desaparece y las
personas vuelven a ser susceptibles a la misma
enfermedad. Es entonces que se necesita una
inyección de refuerzo. Parece ser que también
nosotros necesitamos inyecciones de refuerzo para
nuestra fe. El bautismo solo no es suficiente. El gozo y
la paz que inundaron nuestras comunidades hace dos
semanas ya empiezan probablemente a decaer y
nuestras viejas maneras de ser pueden que estén de
nuevo resurgiendo. Necesitamos una dosis semanal de
apariciones del Resucitado en la Eucaristía
que compartimos.
Las tres lecturas de esta semana, al igual que el
salmo, señalan la debilidad de nuestra fe humana. No
obstante enfatizan el perdón y la bendición que están
siempre a disposición de aquellos que se vuelven a
“Jesucristo, el Justo”. ¿Podemos reconocernos en el
Evangelio de Lucas de hoy? ¿Nos damos cuenta de
cuán profundamente necesitamos nuestra “inyección
de refuerzo” semanal de la Eucaristía a fin de poder
recordar y reclamar la presencia salvadora del Señor
resucitado?

WEEK IN CHURCH IN MEMORY OF
LAWRENCE BOURGEOIS
Vivamos la Palabra de Dios
La Eucaristía nos vigoriza para poder llevar la presencia de
Cristo al mundo. Puede ser fácil vernos en las Escrituras de
hoy como los pecadores débiles, pero también debemos
vernos en los roles de Pedro, Juan y Lucas. En la Eucaristía
Jesús nos alimenta y nos envía a predicar “en su nombre a
todas las naciones” (Lucas 24:47). Somos sus testigos.
