REFLECTIONS / REFLECCIONES
THE RICHNESS OF THE SPIRIT
Students, and most adults recalling their
school days, are familiar with the phrase
“compare and contrast” that shows up from
time to time on tests. Today we hear two different accounts of
the giving of the Holy Spirit to the Church. Let’s contrast, then
compare. Luke’s account from Acts is filled with arresting details: the mighty wind from heaven, the tongues of flame, the
miracle of different languages. John’s account seems timid:
fearful disciples, the wounded Christ, the expelling of breath
from His risen body, not from the sky. Our literal, modern
minds wonder which way it happened; our noisy culture
probably makes us prefer the former. But if we compare the
two, we find that the dazzling richness of the Spirit fills both
accounts, for it is the very breath of the risen Christ, ascended
to the sky in Luke, that appears to His disciples in John and
sends His followers forth to carry on His mission of forgiving
sin and proclaiming the mighty acts of God. © Copyright, J. S. Paluch Co.
TODAY’S READINGS
First Reading — Filled with the Holy Spirit, the apostles begin
to speak in tongues (Acts 2:1-11).
Psalm — Lord, send out Your Spirit, and renew the face of the
earth (Psalm 104).
Second Reading — In one Spirit we are baptized into one body
and given to drink of one Spirit (1 Corinthians 12:3b-7, 12-13).
Gospel — Jesus Christ appears to His disciples and sends them
on their mission with the power to forgive or retain sins
through the Holy Spirit (John 20:19-23).
FEAST OF FAITH
Liturgy: Work of the Spirit
The Spirit of God who hovered over the waters at
the dawn of creation—the Holy Spirit who descended
upon the disciples at Pentecost in ever-changing forms in
the sound of a mighty wind or tongues of flame—hovers
also over our celebration of the liturgy, giving it life, making it real. It is the Spirit of God who draws us, gathering
us together, Sunday after Sunday. It is the Spirit of God
who called loudly to the inspired writers of the scriptures
and who continues to whisper to us, revealing ever-new
facets of God’s word, granting insight just when we need
it. It is by the Spirit’s power that, when Christ’s words are
uttered by the priest, the bread and wine become the
Body and Blood of Christ. And it is surely the Spirit who
inspires us—that is, breathes in us—when, sent forth
from the assembly, we seek ways to serve our brothers
and sisters, to allow the gospel to come to life in the
world. Come, Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of Your faithful,
and kindle in them the fire of Your love. —Corinna Laughlin, ©

Happy Birthday, Church !
LA RIQUEZA DEL ESPÍRITU
Los estudiantes, y la mayoría de los adultos que recuerdan sus días de escuela, están familiarizados con la frase “compara y contrasta” que de tanto
en tanto aparece en las pruebas. Hoy escuchamos dos relatos
diferentes sobre la venida del Espíritu. Contrastemos y luego
comparemos. El relato de Lucas en Hechos está lleno de detalles impresionantes: El viento poderoso, llamas de fuego como
lenguas, el milagro de las diferentes lenguas. El relato de Juan
parece tímido: discípulos temerosos, el Cristo llagado, el soplo
de aliento viene de su cuerpo resucitado y no del cielo. Mientras nuestras mentes modernas y literales se preguntan de qué
manera sucedió; nuestra ruidosa cultura probablemente nos
hará preferir el primer relato. Pero si comparamos los dos, la
deslumbrante riqueza del Espíritu llena ambos relatos, ya que
es el mismo aliento del Cristo resucitado, ascendido a los cielos
en Lucas, el que se aparece a sus discípulos en Juan y envía a
sus seguidores a llevar a cabo su misión de perdonar los pecados y proclamar los portentos de Dios. © Copyright, J. S. Paluch Co.
LECTURAS DE HOY
Primera lectura — Quedaron llenos del Espíritu Santo y
se pusieron a hablar idiomas distintos (Hechos 2:1-11).
Salmo — Envía, Señor, tu Espíritu, y renueva la tierra
(Salmo 104(103)).
Segunda lectura — Hay diferentes dones, pero el Espíritu
es el mismo (1 Corintios 12:3b-7, 12-13).
Evangelio — Así como el Padre me envió a mí, así yo los
envío a ustedes (Juan 20:19-23).
FIESTA DE LA FE
El altar como la mesa familiar
Después de la Liturgia de la Palabra, la asamblea y
la oración litúrgica cambian de escenario. La mirada de la
asamblea, así como todos sus movimientos se fijan ahora
en el altar. Este altar tiene forma de mesa, ¡es una mesa!
En torno a ella la asamblea comerá el pan y la bebida de
salvación. A él van quienes tienen hambre, quienes
afectados por su naturaleza humana, han dado paso al
pecado en su propia vida y sienten la necesidad de
reconciliarse, no sólo consigo mismos, sino con sus hermanos y sobre todo, con Dios. Esta es la mesa de la unidad, de donde fluye el amor sin límites, el pan de vida. A
él van quienes se sienten vacíos aun cuando lo tienen
todo. En esta mesa – altar, no hay diferencia alguna, todos solidarios por la filiación divina, por la fraternidad
con Cristo, por la condición humana que nos une en la
gracia y en el pecado nos separa. Venimos a esta mesa
reafirmando lo que somos como hijos e hijas de Dios,
venimos a presentarnos nosotros mismos como don vivo,
como ofrenda agradable, venimos a ofrecer un sacrificio
de alabanza, a bendecir a Dios porque él mismo ya nos
ha bendecido. —Miguel Arias, © Copyright, J. S. Paluch Co.

JESUS, You have challenged us
to feed you…when we find you hungry
to clothe you...when we see you in rags
to teach you...when we find you ignorant
to visit you...when we know you are sick
or imprisoned
to welcome you...when you come as a stranger.
We accept this challenge, Lord, and ask that
You empower us with Your Spirit.
Give us the vision to see You in the poor,
and the courage to reach out and
make a difference. Amen.

Embrace it with joy…You are Christ’s disciples today.”

POPE BENEDICT’S 60TH ORDINATION ANNIVERSARY
Catholics urged to participate
in 60 hours of Eucharistic Adoration
Called to pray for vocations
USCCB Vocations Office offers
prayer card on the Web
WASHINGTON (May 26, 2011) Catholics worldwide are asked
to mark the Sixtieth Anniversary of Pope Benedict’s ordination
to the priesthood with sixty hours of Eucharistic prayer for
vocations.
Our Holiness, Pope Benedict XVI, will celebrate his anniversary on June 29, the Solemnity of St. Peter and St. Paul. In
honor of his anniversary, the Vatican Congregation for Clergy
suggested Catholic clergy and faithful be invited to participate
in Eucharistic Adoration with the intention of praying for the
sanctification of the clergy and for the gift of new and holy
priestly vocations.
Dioceses nationwide are planning prayers before the
Blessed Sacrament in June. Celebrations might conclude by
July 1, the Feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the World
Day of Prayer for Priests.
“This is an excellent opportunity to give thanks for our Holy
Father, to pray for all our priests, and to ask the Lord for more
vocations to the priesthood,” said Archbishop Robert J. Carlson
of St. Louis, chairman for the Committee on Clergy, Consecrated Life and Vocations. “The Holy Father has been an outstanding model of priestly ministry and service to the Church.”
