A MESSAGE FROM OUR PASTOR
Dear Holy Apostles Parish Family,
This week we will be celebrating Confirmation
with just under 100 students. This year we used
a different program called Chosen that has given us more student interaction. Father Michael
Schmitz is the star of the day on videos and
social media and he is the main presenter. Our
hope is that it be more applicable to the students,
so they get more out of it that is practical and
makes a difference in their lives.
Last weekend we had the Confirmation Retreat
for students and parents. It is always interesting
to hear what people have to say. We all struggle
to raise our kids in this world and have God be
part of it. I found many of their concerns similar
as in years past, but this year we seem to hit a
chord when we spoke of anxiety. It seems that
we all are filled with worries that make us
anxious, especially after the recession 8 years
ago hit. We struggle to feel confident even if
things go well. Our children seem to have much
anxiety too. It hits me that with all the social
media and immediate communication we are
overwhelmed with so much. I find it interesting
that when we go on mission trips and students
do not have their phones they say, “It’s a relief
not to have to keep up with it all.” It is a good
time to ask, “What are we doing to ourselves
and our kids? Do we ever really relax and unplug
anymore?”
Have a Blessed week!
Father Paul
Why Do We Do That?—
Catholic Traditions Explained
Question: How do you explain "Real Presence" to
children?
Answer: Sometimes it is easier to explain to
children than to adults. Their faith and trust in
Jesus is not limited by the questions and doubts
that often come with the question of how he
does it. Rather they focus on the question why,
and the answer is something they can easily
grasp: love. Christ wants to be with us because
he loves us. Nothing is purer in truth or in faith.
Not even the theological explanation of transubstantiation, or philosophical reasoning or symbolic references come close. Christ takes on the
form of bread and wine to be simple and approachable, so that no one is afraid or turned
away. His love for us is complete and total. We
try to love him the same way in return. For a child
it is simple; for us adults, we keep trying.
"Unless you turn and become like children, you will
not enter the kingdom of heaven" Mt 18:3.
The Church of Holy Apostles, McHenry, IL
WE OFFER OUR PRAYERS FOR:
All the homeless, the unemployed, the military, the addicted, the
grieving, the imprisoned, and the physically and emotionally ill.

Tercer Domingo de Pascua
Porque Jesús Pregunto a Pedro si lo Amaba.
Porque Jesús le pregunto a Pedro 3 veces si lo amaba.
“Al final del Evangelio de San Juan aparece la triple confesión que Jesús hace pronunciar a San Pedro delante
de los Apóstoles, sin duda que en el contexto Judío tres
afirmaciones corresponde al cierre de un negocio, en
este contexto con el tono solemne de JESÚS corresponde
a una alianza
Cuál es el "negocio"? Apacentar a la Iglesia en nombre
del Maestro. Por qué? Porque DIOS es un DIOS de orden
y conocía la necesidad de un pastoreo visible para mantener la unidad de la Iglesia, recuerda que JESÚS le dijo
al mismo Pedro "Sobre esta piedra edifico MI Iglesia, pero místicamente tiene también un mensaje muy profundo que nos abre una ventana al espíritu de Pedro y a la
obra que el Señor estaba e iba a hacer en él.
En esta triple confesión se utilizan dos de las palabras
que hemos mencionado, ἀγαπάω (agapáô) y φιλέω
([philéô) ambas tienen un significado profundo en este
dialogo En esta triple confesión de San Juan 21, 15
comienza Jesús preguntando “ Simón hijo de Juan, me
amas más que estos? Acá Jesús utiliza la palabra AGAPE,
Jesús le dice a Pedro “Pedro me amas con amor divino
como el Padre me ama a mí, con amor de SACRIFICIO?”
A lo que Pedro responde “Tu sabes que te amo” , pero
Pedro acá responde con la palabra “phileo” o sea Pedro
responde “señor tu sabes que te amo como un amigo, o
sea con todas mis emociones.
Jesús le vuelve a preguntar por segunda vez “ Simón hijo
de Juan, me amas más que estos? Acá Jesús vuelve a
utiliza la palabra AGAPE” A lo que Pedro vuelve a responder “con la palabra “phileo”. O sea, Jesús le pregunta a Pedro, me amas con amor de Dios y Pedro responde
dos veces, “te amo con amor humano”, amor de
emoción. Por tercera vez, Jesús hace la pregunta pero
ahora dándose cuenta de que Pedro aún no ha abierto
su corazón a las cosas de arriba cambia las palabras y
Jesús pregunta: “Simón me amas (phileo) más que estos?” y Pedro sin entender responde “Señor tú lo sabes
todo, tu sabes que de verdad yo te amo (phileo) Ahora si
podemos entender y encaja lo que Jesús dice después:
18 Te aseguro que cuando eras joven tú mismo te
vestías e ibas a donde querías. Pero cuando seas viejo,
extenderás tus brazos, y otro te atará y te llevará a donde
no quieras». Acá Jesús le dice a Pedro “Pedro ahora me
amas con amor humano de emoción (phileo) pero más
adelante me vas a amar con amor divino (ágape) y sabrás lo que es pues darás tu vida por mí. Aprendió Pedro
esta lección???
Por supuesto que sí, el Espíritu Santo el día de Pentecostés irrumpió en el espíritu de Pedro y transformo el
Phileo en Agape… así lo vemos en sus Epístolas 1 Pedro
1:8 a quien amáis sin haberle visto, en quien creyendo,
aunque ahora no lo veáis, os alegráis con gozo inefable y
glorioso.“

Formación, Matrimonio y Famila
Iniciamos el día viernes 22 de Abril 6:45 PM en el

La Biblia Luz y Guía para el Matrimonio y la Familia
Ciertamente, la Biblia es la Palabra de Dios inspirada por
el Espíritu Santo. En ella, Dios se revela a la humanidad y
manifiesta su Plan perfecto para nosotros, el cual podemos resumir en solo una palabra: Amor.
El Evangelio según San Juan afirma que Aquel que es la
Palabra se hizo carne y habitó entre nosotros. Por ello
podemos de alguna manera decir que la Biblia es Dios
mismo; y quien la lee está frente al mismo Dios; y el que
está frente a Dios es iluminado, es transfigurado por la
luz que proviene de Dios.
Por ello, el matrimonio y la familia que lee y medita en la
Palabra, juntos la comparten y oran inspirados por ella,
son necesariamente iluminados por el mismo Dios y
transformados en El, quien es el Amor, y llevados a un
compromiso de vida donde reina el Amor. Les invitamos
en este mes de la Biblia a reunirse como matrimonio y
como familia a leer, meditar y orar con la Palabra y le instamos a mantener siempre esta sana costumbre. Y
Dios, les dará la luz para entender su mensaje, la
sabiduría para hacer las mejores decisiones, la fuerza
para superar las pruebas y el amor para formar matrimonios y familias ¡que inspiran!
