“Ustedes son el cuerpo de Cristo, y cada uno en su lugar es parte de él.” (1 Cor. 12:27)

¿Me amas?
Señor Jesús, como a
Pedro, hoy tú nos
preguntas también:
¿Me amas? Sí, Señor:
pero concédenos
amarte todavía mucho
más con un corazón
caldeado por el fuego
inextinguible de tu
amor.
Tú nos abriste el camino que lleva hasta el Padre y,
gracias a ti, la vida es mucho más fuerte que la muerte.
Estamos seguros por la fe de que vives en nosotros y
estás presente en cada hombre y mujer, nuestros
hermanos. Haz que nos entreguemos a la apasionante
tarea de amarte, queriendo sin medida a los demás con
el amor con que tú los amas. Danos la fuerza de tu
Espíritu para ser tus testigos siempre, y obedecer la
voluntad de Dios si temor a nada ni a nadie. Amén.
(Tomado de B. Caballero: La Palabra cada domingo, San
Pablo, España, 1995, p. 477)
San Pedro fue un gran amante de
Nuestro Señor. Falló una vez y le
negó, todos lo sabemos y él jamás
lo olvidaría. Pero después de ese
suceso penoso hizo su fuerte
resolución de jamás abandonar al
Maestro. Jesús no duda del amor
de su "Roca", pero le hace un
triple examen para poderle repetir tres veces cómo
quiere él que le demuestre su afecto. "Me amas.
Apacienta mis ovejas". Muchas formas ingeniosas
podemos idear para manifestar nuestro amor, pero
siempre será mucho más acertada aquella que nuestra
persona amada nos ha confiado que le gusta más.
Desde entonces San Pedro tuvo muy claro que amar a
su grey -todos los cristianos—era lo mismo que amar
a su Maestro, y que si quería darle su vida debía darla
a sus ovejas. Lo importante siempre es hacer lo que
Dios quiere y como Él lo quiere.

Diacono Héctor Romeu y Bernard Robin. Además
de la participación de nuestros hermanos de ACTS
sirviendo y honrando a la mujer, habrá un panel de
mujeres inspiradoras que nos platicarán como
realizan su labor profesional y social en compañía
de la fe. No dejes pasar esta oportunidad de ser una
mejor versión de ti misma. Puedes comprar tus
boletos en línea por Eventbrite, en la recepción de
la iglesia, o después de las misas de español durante
el mes de abril. Hay cupo limitado, no niños y no
habrá guardería, este en evento para ti.

Contact Heidi Clark, Director of Adult Ministry, 281.333.3891, Ext. 328 or [email protected]
Adult faith formation at St. Paul the Apostle Catholic Church is centered around the understanding that living
“The Way” taught by Jesus Christ is a life-long, evolving journey, involving both effort and decision. To enable
adults to explore the faith and deepen their knowledge of God’s Word, we provide many opportunities to
come together in a learning environment. As a diverse community with a small parish feel, we know it is
important to walk that journey with others and to share what we have learned along the way.

interested in learning more about
becoming Catholic, our RCIA
