Easter Sunday of the Resurrection of the Lord
April 5, 2015
EASTER 2015 - CHRIST IS RISEN
Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ
The message of Easter Sunday is clear, CHRIST IS ALIVE. This is the announcement of the disciples and the witness of
the Gospels that Christ lives. John writes: "on the first day of the week Mary Magdalene came to the tomb at dawn ....
“And found the open grave and went to inform Peter and the disciple whom Jesus loved. Mary Magdalene said: "they
have taken away the Lord and we do not know where they have put him ..." just to get Simon Peter and the other disciple to the empty tomb. It is then when they understood what Jesus had told them: SEE AND BELIEVE. Until then they
had not understood the Scriptures. (Jn. 20: 1-9).
The foundation of our faith is the Resurrection of Christ. Through his resurrection Christ opens the way of life. He is the
life and hope of the world. He has brought us life. And full life. Easter means etymologically “step" "transit". It is the passing of Christ in this life to the glorious life. This is the joy of our Passover.
God appears to us in our present and concrete way, as a friend who wants to share his life with us, wants to open up his
heart. And he asks: Do you want to share with me this way of life from Jerusalem to the Father? The answer is personal.
This Easter is the time for God. It's time for you and me to walk in joy and hope, building the Kingdom of God among us.
Our beloved Holy John Paul II invited all of us to be promoters and defenders of the Culture of Life. The Passover wants
to remind everyone that life is sacred. It is a precious gift from God. Love this sacred gift God has given to us and pray
that this new spiritual springtime brings us the Passover of the Lord.
I pray today in a special way that the resurrection of the Lord brings this sacred gift to all of our families. Many many
blessings and a joyful season. On behalf of my parish staff I would like to wish my brothers and sisters a Happy Easter.
Fr. Efrain Flores
PASCUA 2015 - CRISTO HA RESUCITADO
Queridos Hermanos y Hermanas en Cristo
El mensaje de este domingo de Pascua es claro, CRISTO VIVE. Es el anuncio de los discípulos y el testimonio de los
Evangelios que Cristo Vive. San Juan escribe: “el primer día de la semana María Magdalena fue al sepulcro al amanecer….” Y encontró el sepulcro abierto y fue a comunicar a Pedro y al discípulo que tanto quería Jesús. Dice María Magdalena: “se han llevado del sepulcro al Señor y no sabemos dónde lo han puesto…” solo al entrar Simón Pedro y el
otro discípulo la sepulcro vacío. Es cuando entienden lo que Jesús les había anunciado: VIO Y CREYO. Hasta entonces no habían entendido las Escrituras. (Jn. 20:1-9).
Cristo con su resurrección nos abre el camino de la Vida. El fundamento de nuestra fe es la Resurrección de Cristo. Él
es la vida y la esperanza del mundo. Él nos ha traído vida. Y vida plena. Pascua significa etimológicamente hablando “paso” “transito”. Es el paso de Cristo de esta vida a la vida Gloriosa. Esta es la alegría de nuestra pascua.
Dios se nos presenta en nuestro camino actual y concreto, como un amigo que quiere compartir su vida con nosotros.
Quiere abrirnos su corazón. Y él nos pregunta: ¿quieres compartir conmigo este camino de Jerusalén al Padre. La respuesta es personal. Esta Pascua es el tiempo para Dios. Es tiempo para ti y para mi caminar en la alegría y la esperanza. Construyendo el Reino de Dios entre nosotros. Nuestro querido Santo Juan Pablo II, nos invitaba a todos a ser promotores y defensores de la Cultura de Vida. La pascua nos quiere recordar a todo eso mismo que la vida es sagrada. Es un don precioso de Dios. Amemos este don Sagrado que Dios nos ha regalado y oremos justos en esta nueva
primavera espiritual que nos trae esta Pascua del Señor.
Les deseo mis hermanos y hermanas Feliz Pascua de Resurrección.
