Jesus’ entire life was lived for the Father’s glory and for our salvation, but at the center of it all was the mystery of his passion, death, and resurrection. Together we call these the Paschal mystery. Paschal means Passover or Easter. So far our Lenten journey has focused on our own struggle with sin and evil. As God told Cain, “sin lies in wait at the door: its urge is for you, yet you can rule over it” (Genesis 4:7 NABRE). Through the spiritual disciplines of fasting, prayer, and almsgiving (charity), we have tried to master sin. I must confess that I have not fully succeeded. Sometimes I win and sometimes I lose. But even that means Lent has been good. Once again I am forced to admit my need for a savior. “The hour has come…” (John 12:23a NABRE). The hour for what? “Now is the time of judgment on this world; now the ruler of this world will be driven out. And when I am lifted up from the earth, I will draw everyone to myself” (John 12:31–32 NABRE). Now is the hour of salvation. Liturgically we are on the verge of the holiest of all times, Holy Week. We are invited not to simply remember, but to enter into the Paschal mystery, to be with Jesus. Our own efforts fade. Our focus shifts to Jesus: who he is, what he does, what he means “for us men and our salvation” (Niceno-Constantinopolitan creed). “Behold the wood of the Cross, on which hung the salvation of the world. Come, let us adore” (Good Friday liturgy). Shalom, Deacon Mike Next Faith Formation Lecture: Please join the Adult Faith Formation Team, Sunday, April 15th at 9:30 in Trinity Hall to welcome Danielle Hanneken of Holy Trinity Parish. She will present: "Opening to the Presence of God" What does that mean and how are we to do this? Psalm 46:10 "Be Still and Know that I am God" - This simple wisdom is an invitation given to you by God. It is a call to set aside all activity, rest in silence, and come into an intimate relationship with the Beloved. In Danielle's presentation, she will explore with us one way to consent or say yes to this call.

La vida entera de Jesús fue vivida para la gloria del Padre y para nuestra salvación, pero en el centro de todo esto está el misterio de su pasión, muerte y resurrección. En conjunto les llamamos el Misterio Pascual. Pascual significa Pascua Judía o Pascua de Resurrección. Hasta ahora la jornada de Cuaresma se ha enfocado en nuestra propia lucha con el pecado y la maldad. Según Dios le dijo a Caín, “Si haces bien,” […] “el pecado yace a la puerta y te codicia, pero tú debes dominarlo.” (Génesis 4:7, NBLH). Por medio de las disciplinas de ayuno, oración y limosna (caridad), hemos tratado de dominar el pecado. Debo confesar que no he tenido éxito del todo. A veces gano y a veces pierdo. Pero aun así, esto significa que la Cuaresma ha sido buena. Una vez más estoy forzado a admitir me necesidad de un salvador. “ha llegado la hora…” (Juan 12:23ª NBLH). ¿La hora de qué? “Ya está aquí el juicio de este mundo; ahora el príncipe de este mundo será echado fuera. Pero Yo, si soy levantado de la tierra, atraeré a todos a Mí mismo.” (Juan 12:31-32 NBLH). Ahora es la hora de la salvación. Litúrgicamente estamos al borde de tiempo más santo de todos, la Semana Santa. Estamos invitados a no simplemente recordar, sino a entrar en el Misterio Pascual, a estar con Jesús. Nuestros esfuerzos propios se desvanecen. Nuestro enfoque cambia hacia Jesús: quién es Él, qué hace él, qué quiere decir él “por nosotros, los hombres, y por nuestra salvación” (Credo de Necea). “Mirad el árbol de la cruz, donde estuvo clavada la salvación del hombre. Venid a adorarlo.” (Liturgia del Viernes Santo).
