Sacrament of Baptism/Bautismo: Saturdays / Sábados................. 10:00 am PASIÓN La palabra “pasión” conlleva un profundo y determinado compromiso. Pero es interesante que también tiene relación a la pasividad. La persona profundamente apasionada del relato evangélico de Lucas es Jesús. Parece pasivo pero no lo es. Está totalmente consciente de sí mismo y totalmente presente al día que comienza el jueves por la noche en su última cena con los apóstoles y termina con su entierro antes de la puesta del sol el día siguiente. Entonces le sigue el largo silencio del sábado. El relato de la pasión se lee entero y sin pausa el Domingo de Ramos en la Pasión. Esta historia, que se encuentra en cada uno de los evangelios, no cambia. Somos nosotros los que cambiamos. Cada año, nos presentamos con otro año de historia para escuchar y hacerle caso a esta historia que tanta falta nos hace. La vida nos traquetea y de nuevo volvemos a los relatos de la Pasión para aprender a seguirle. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

The deeply passionate person in the Gospel narrative from Luke is Jesus. He appears passive, but he is not. He is wholly self-possessed and wholly present for the one day that begins on Thursday evening at his last meal with his apostles and ends with his burial before sunset the next day. Then follows the long Sabbath silence. The narrative of the Passion is read whole and without pause on the Palm Sunday of the Passion. This story, found in each of the Gospels, is unchanging. We are the ones who change. Each year, we bring ourselves with another year’s history to hear and heed the story we so badly need. Life has its way with us, and we look again to the Passion narratives to learn to follow. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

But Francis had already declared that Jesus “has shown the face of God’s mercy” back in 2013 on his first Palm Sunday as pope. Francis described Luke’s account of Jesus’ entrance into Jerusalem: “Crowds, celebrating, praise, blessing, peace: joy fills the air. Jesus has awakened great hopes, especially in the hearts of the simple, the humble, the poor, the forgotten, those who do not matter in the eyes of the world. He understands human sufferings . . . has bent down to heal body and soul.” Entering Jerusalem, Jesus looks at all of us with love, Francis continued, at our sicknesses and sins. “A beautiful scene, full of light—the light of the love of Jesus” (Pope Francis, Palm Sunday homily, March 24, 2013). May this Jubilee Year’s Holy Week and Triduum make us Jesus’ own light-bearers and love-givers to all who long to see the Face of Mercy. —Peter Scagnelli, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.

Sin embargo, el Domingo de Ramos de 2013, el Papa Francisco había anunciado que “Jesús ha mostrado el rostro de la misericordia de Dios”. El Papa Francisco describe la historia del Evangelio de Lucas donde Jesús entra en Jerusalén así: “Gentío, fiesta, alabanza, bendición, paz. Se respira un clima de alegría. Jesús ha despertado en el corazón tantas esperanzas, sobre todo entre la gente humilde, simple, pobre, olvidada, esa que no cuenta a los ojos del mundo. Él ha sabido comprender las miserias humanas, ha mostrado el rostro de misericordia de Dios y se ha inclinado para curar el cuerpo y el alma”. El Papa Francisco sigue diciendo que Jesús al entrar a Jerusalén mira a todos con amor en nuestras debilidades y pecados. “Es una bella escena, llena de luz – la luz del amor de Jesús, de su corazón –, de alegría, de fiesta” (Papa Francisco, homilía del Domingo de Ramos, 24 de marzo de 2013). ¡Qué la Semana Santa y Triduo Pascual de este Año Jubilar de la Misericordia nos hagan portadores de la luz de Jesús y mensajeros de amor a todos los que anhelan ver El rostro de la Misericordia! —Peter Scagnelli, Copyright © J.

Palm Sunday of the Passion of the Lord Page 3 GOOD FRIDAY HOLY LAND COLLECTION The daily news reminds us of the violence and instability plaguing the Middle East, but we rarely hear of the shrinking Christian community there, a community that struggles to remain in the land of Christ’s birth, death and resurrection. On Good Friday, our parish will take up the annual Good Friday Collection for the Holy Land. Please help support our brothers and sisters in the Holy Land by giving to Good Friday’s special collection. This Pontifical collection allows the Franciscans and others to continue caring for Christianity’s holiest sites and for God’s people in the Holy Land. Please be generous in your support.

Canons 1249-1253) as implemented by the National Conference of Catholic Bishops for the United States, the following regulations are to be observed by the Catholics in the Diocese of Orange in the penitential practices: 1. ADORATION OF THE BLESSED SACRAMENT THURSDAY, MARCH 21 The Parish Perpetual Day of Adoration is the 21st day of the month immediately after the morning Mass until 6:15 am the following morning. Come and spend some quiet time with the Lord. ADORACIÓN PERPETUA DEL SANTÍSIMO SACRAMENTO JUEVES, 21 DE MARZO 2. 3. El día de Adoración Perpetua del Santísimo Sacramento es el 21 del mes. Adoración comienza después de la Misa de la mañana hasta las 6:15 am de la mañana siguiente. Venga y dedique un poco de tiempo a solas con el Señor. It is to be noted for all that the faithful are bound to do penance and, as a specification of this obligation by the Church, some form of abstinence by those 14 years of age and older is to be observed on all Fridays throughout the year. Everyone 14 years of age and older is bound to abstain from meat on Ash Wednesday and on all Fridays of Lent. If for some serious reason a person must eat meat on a Friday in Lent, some other form of self-sacrifice should be performed. Everyone who is at least 18 years of age and not yet 60 is bound to fast on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday. a. On these two days of fast only one full meal is allowed. Two other meals, sufficient to maintain strength may be taken, but together they should not equal another full meal. Eating between meals on these days is not permitted, but liquids are allowed. b. Where health or ability to work would be seriously affected, the law does not oblige. Online Giving! It’s fast! It’s easy! It’s convenient and secure!

K of C from La Purisima and Holy Family Cathedral meet the first Thursday of the month and are active in several fundraisers and community activities. These include La Purisima Fish Fry, Holy Family Fiesta, golf tournament, OLSF basketball free throw contest for students, and meal preparation for Isaiah House.
