ASSIGNED CLERGY: PASTOR MASS SCHEDULE: Rev. Michael W. Davis PAROCHIAL VICARS Rev. Abel E. Barajas Rev. Phillip H. Tran PRIEST IN RESIDENCE Rev.

SATURDAYS TUESDAYS 8:30 am to 10:00 am 7:00 pm to 8:30 pm “W hoever loves me will keep my word,” says Jesus. “Whoever does not love me will not keep my word.” These statements should be of no surprise to us. They stand to reason. Jesus had lived, taught, inspired, healed, risen, appeared, and was now preparing for the Ascension. It stands to reason that the eye witnesses would be men of great conviction and love for Christ; ever ready to keep His words. And so, the question became: what were the disciples going to do? Would they remain faithful? Would they follow-through? Would they keep the Lord’s words, and help others to do the same? These are questions that surely apply to us, as well. Now that we have been counted among the baptized, now that we have been anointed with the Spirit and fed with the Bread of Life, now that we have been instructed and assisted in our journey of faith by the ministering Church, what are we going to do about it? As for the Apostles, so now for us, it’s really a question of conviction and loyalty. “Whoever loves me will keep my words.” Our world would have been very different had the Apostles not followed-through on Jesus’ words. Sorry, indeed, it would be if we, ourselves, who have been given so much, were not to follow-through for Christ. Conviction and loyalty flow forth from love. “Whoever loves me will keep my word,” says the Lord. Do we really love the Lord at the core of our being? Do we, therefore, keep his words? Our modern world thirsts for the witness of men and women who, out of love for Christ, authentically keep his words. Without the life-giving word of Christ, and the lived witness of his followers, whose lives are enriched and made different because of their love of the Lord, our contemporary world, which is becoming more and more secular, more and more commercial, will increasingly run the risk of a mere cultural Christianity, a cultural Catholicism. Perhaps a religiosity that is even devoid of the words and meaning of Christ. I met someone the other day at a restaurant. He was a waiter who attended to my table, as I had lunch with a friend. The waiter was wearing a necklace, which had a crucifix attached to it. My friend said to the waiter, “I see you are Christian.” The waiter didn’t understand what my friend was talking about. So my friend then followed-up, “I notice the cross you are wearing around your neck.” To our astonishment the waiter said, “Oh, that? That’s just jewelry. I am not a religious person.” My friend said, “Really? Why not? You should consider it.” My friend and I later lamented how our culture has many of the trappings of Christianity, as if the faith were an ancient event of no modern import. Sadly, it makes me wonder, “is this what 2,000 years of Christianity has done: merely becoming jewelry?” Surely our love for the Lord is more valuable than that! What can we, as church, do better, to manifest our love for Christ and keep his words? Indeed, we must bring Christ to the world, manifest our faith, and make known his love to all. Bring Christ to the world, showing that we are his by the way we live. It is a witness that is sure to draw. Yes. Our contemporary world surely needs more men and women who bear witness to Jesus Christ and his words. This happens when we are sincerely motivated by love for Christ and the fulfillment of his words, allowing them to shape our daily lives and our decision-making. May our convictions and loyalty be of no surprise to anyone. “E l que me ama guardará mi palabra", dice Jesús. "El que no me ama no guardará mi palabra." Estas declaraciones no deben ser de ninguna sorpresa para nosotros. Son implícitas. Jesús había vivido, enseñado, inspirado, sanado, resucitado, aparecido, y ahora se prepara para la Ascensión. Es lógico pensar que los testigos oculares serían hombres de gran convicción y amor a Cristo; siempre dispuestos a guardar sus palabras. Y así, la pregunta fue: ¿Qué iban a hacer los discípulos? ¿Iban a permanecer fieles? ¿Seguirían su plan? ¿Seguirían las palabras del Señor, y ayudarían a otros a hacer lo mismo? Estas son preguntas que seguramente se aplican también a nosotros. Ahora que somos contados entre los bautizados, ahora que hemos sido ungidos con el Espíritu y alimentados con el Pan de Vida, ahora que hemos sido instruidos y asistidos en nuestro camino de fe por la Iglesia, ¿qué vamos a hacer al respecto? En cuanto a los Apóstoles, y ahora para nosotros, es realmente una cuestión de convicción y lealtad. "El que me ama, guardará mis palabras." Nuestro mundo habría sido muy diferente si los Apóstoles no hubiesen seguido las palabras de Jesús. Seria penoso, de hecho, si nosotros, que se nos ha dado tanto, no siguiéramos a Cristo. La convicción y la lealtad fluyen del amor. "El que me ama, guardará mi palabra," dice el Señor. ¿Nosotros amamos al Señor en lo más profundo de nuestro ser? ¿Nosotros, por lo tanto, seguimos sus palabras? Nuestro mundo moderno tiene sed por el testimonio de hombres y mujeres que, por amor a Cristo, mantienen auténticamente sus palabras. Sin la palabra viva de Cristo, y el testimonio de la vida de sus seguidores, cuya vida son enriquecidas y se hicieron diferente debido a su amor por el Señor, nuestro mundo contemporáneo, que se está convirtiendo cada vez más secular, más y más comercial, corre el riesgo cada vez más de un mero cristianismo cultural, un catolicismo cultural. Tal vez una religiosidad que aún carece de las palabras y el significado de Cristo. Conocí a alguien el otro día en un restaurante. Era un camarero que atendía mi mesa, ya que tenía un almuerzo con un amigo. El camarero llevaba un collar que tenía un crucifijo. Mi amigo le dijo al camarero, "Veo que eres cristiano." El camarero no entendía lo que mi amigo estaba hablando. Así que mi amigo procedió, "Me he dado cuenta de la cruz que llevas alrededor de tu cuello." Para nuestra sorpresa el camarero dijo, "¿Oh, eso? Eso es sólo joyería. No soy una persona religiosa. "Mi amigo le dijo:" ¿De verdad? ¿Por qué no? Debes de tomarlo en consideración. Mi amigo y yo más tarde nos lamentamos de que nuestra cultura tiene muchas de las características del cristianismo, como si la fe fuera un antiguo caso que no tiene importancia moderna. Tristemente, eso me hace pensar, "¿es esto lo que 2,000 años de cristianismo ha hecho: simplemente convertirse en joyería?" ¡Sin duda, nuestro amor por el Señor es más valioso que eso! ¿Qué podemos nosotros hacer mejor, como iglesia, para manifestar nuestro amor a Cristo y seguir sus palabras? De hecho, hay que llevar a Cristo al mundo, manifestar nuestra fe, y dar a conocer a todos su amor. Llevar a Cristo al mundo, demostrando que somos suyos por la forma en que vivimos. Es un testimonio seguro de llamar la atención. Sí. Nuestro mundo contemporáneo sin duda necesita más hombres y mujeres que den testimonio de Jesucristo y sus palabras. Esto sucede cuando estamos motivados sinceramente por el amor de Cristo y el cumplimiento de sus palabras, lo que permite dar forma a nuestra vida cotidiana y nuestra forma de tomar decisiones. Que nuestras convicciones y lealtad no sean de sorpresa para nadie. 2711 Indian Mound Trail Coral Gables, Florida 33134 Phone: (305) 446-9950 www.cotlf.org Mrs. Irma Aguilar Business Manager & Bookkeeper Mrs. Maria Elena Chialastri Office Manager Administrative Assistant to the Pastor Mr. Luis Cuza Associate Director of Liturgical Music Mr. Juan Del Sol Wedding Coordinator Dr. Dawn Fontana Director of Liturgical Music Ms. Cecilia Miyar Administrative Assistant to the DRE Parish Coordinator of Ministries Mr. Ernesto Morales Maintenance Assistant Ms. Annette Perez Receptionist Mr. Jorge Perez Director of Advancement & Stewardship Mr. Jorge Santibáñez Director of Religious Education & Youth Ministry Mr. Milton Somarriba Church Custodian Mrs. Nubia Vivas Maintenance Assistant Ms. Vivian Xiqués Curator of Records Virtus Training Coordinator S .T C Ext. 314 Ext. 306 Ext. 311 Ext. 305 Ext. 310 Congratulations to our Newly Baptized: Camila Victoria Garcia, Catherine Rose Petisco, Emilio Ruben Salazar, Alexander Santino Tirado Gomez, Elle Dickinson, Valentina Lai Louie, Anastasia Nidia Serrano Congratulations and God’s Blessings to those Joined in Holy Matrimony: Jonathan Hernandez & Bianca F.

As you may recall, he spent two summers with us, learning Spanish by participating in the Spanish summer camp, as well as weekly Spanish Masses, weddings, funerals, and Baptisms. He is thrilled to be able to come back and celebrate Spanish Masses at the parish that helped him in so many ways. Welcome Father Alex!

Oh Dios, que te alaben los pueblos, que todos los pueblos te alaben. — Salmo 67 (66):6 S e nos ofrece una visión distinta en la segunda lectura de hoy, una visión de la Nueva Jerusalén, “que descendía del cielo, resplandeciente con la gloria de Dios” (Apocalipsis 21:10). Si buscamos el significado detrás de la descripción de la radiante ciudad, vemos que la belleza mayor que se revela es la belleza de una perfecta armonía y orden, una ciudad fundada en la fe de las doce tribus de Israel y los doce Apóstoles, alumbrada únicamente por la gloria de Dios. La primera lectura y el Evangelio también van conectados a esta descripción idealizada de la Nueva Jerusalén. En ambos leemos como la angustia y los altercados se contrarrestan con el don de la paz. “Mi paz les doy”, les asegura Jesús a sus discípulos en la Última Cena (Juan 14:27). De acuerdo con ese don, los apóstoles y presbíteros, en la lectura de los Hechos, deciden no alterar la paz de los nuevos creyentes gentiles. No han de imponerles la excesiva carga de la circuncisión. —Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

The prayer service, done during the Marian month of May, will be followed by a reception on the carport patio. All members of the parish, families with children, and ministry groups are welcome. We will pray for our parish as we continue to celebrate the 90th anniversary. We will be having a parish yard sale on Saturday, June 11th, from 9:00am to 1:00pm at the parking lot across from the parish office. All are welcome to peruse the items. As the saying goes, “one person’s trash is another person’s treasure.” Anyone who would like to rent a space to market and sell their own items can do so by calling Jorge Perez at our Advancement Office, 305-446-9950. Limited spaces will be available for $10. Father Davis, our Pastor and former Director of Liturgy at two seminaries, will be offering an adult education opportunity in June, a four-session instructional module, which will explore the historical beginnings of the Catholic liturgical and sacramental tradition. This primer on liturgical history is based on the course that he taught seminarians as they prepared for the priesthood. Available for the first 16 people who sign up, the power-point mini-course will take place on four consecutive Wednesday evenings beginning on June 8th, from 7:30pm to 9:00pm, at the second floor conference room in the Parish Office. To reserve your seat, free of charge, call Maria Elena Chialastri to get your name on the list. There’s only 16 seats in the conference/media room! 305-446-9950, ext. 306. Father Davis will be leading our second “spiritual field trip” to visit two archdiocesan locations of the Jubilee Year “Holy Doors” on Thursday, September 1st. The details have just been confirmed. We will leave Little Flower at 8:30am, arriving St Anthony’s Church in Fort Lauderdale at 10:15am. We will be greeted by the Pastor, enter through the Holy Door, take a brief tour, and be on our way to our next stop. Then we will go to Our Lady of Mercy Church in Deerfield Beach. We will arrive at 11:45am, be greeted by the Pastor, enter through the Holy Door. Celebrate Mass, and have a catered lunch by a chef from the parish. We will return to Little Flower by 2:45pm. We can only accommodate the first 50 people who sign-up. Tickets will be $49.95 for the day trip excursion. Call Jorge Perez at our Advancement Office, to get your name on the list. 305-446-9950, ext. 318. Have you ever wanted to go to the Holy Land? Our next international pilgrimage trip to Israel is scheduled for March 10-19, 2017. Designed by the nationally renowned Catholic Travel Centre from California, we will embark upon a ten-day spiritual journey, entitled “A Lenten Retreat with Father Davis in the Holy Land.” It will be a particularly awesome way to journey through Lent and prepare for Easter 2017. Planning, of course, takes time. A formal program will soon be announced. Only 50 seats will be available. Bethlehem, Nazareth, Carmel, Caesaria, Cana, Jerusalem, Jericho, and the Dead Sea will be among the highlights. Mass at the Church of the Holy Sepulcher too! Contact Father Davis to get your name on the mailing list. 305-446-9950, ext.301. BISHOP BALDACCHINO VISITS COTLF The Auxiliary Bishop of Miami, the Most Reverend Peter Baldacchino, was on hand this week to preside at the children’s Mass for Saint Theresa School this past Wednesday. He will soon be here at the parish again for our Spring Confirmation ceremony on Wednesday evening, May 10th, at 7:00pm. All are welcome. Mount Saint Mary’s Seminary in Cincinnati will be sending two seminarians to our parish this summer to live in residence and help out at Spanish liturgies, as they do a ten-week volunteer pastoral care experience at nearby Mercy Hospital. Christian Cone-Lombarte and Ambrose Dobrozsi will be here to develop their skills in pastoral Spanish and ministry in a Latin-American context. It’s another way that Little Flower is assisting the needs of the broader Church to the glory of God. As we inaugurate this year’s Fortnight of Prayer for Religious Freedom initiative (June 18 thru July 2), our parish has been selected to be the host site for public veneration of the RELICS of the famous martyrs, Saint Thomas More and Saint John Fisher. The relics will be at our parish for nearly 24 hours, accompanied by the Sisters of the Pierced Hearts of Jesus and Mary. The arrival of the relics and the official start of the Fortnight of Prayer will be presided over at the 5:00pm Vigil Mass on Saturday, June 18th. All are welcome. More information to come. Join us in honoring America at our annual Patriotic Prayer Service on Thursday, June 30th, at 7:30pm in church. As part of the annual Fortnight of Prayer for Freedom, replete with hymns that will engender love of nation, sung by our parish choir, the 45-minute para-liturgical service will include readings as well as candle-light intercessory prayer. The event will be followed by a social in Comber Hall. All are welcome. SPONSORSHIP AVAILABLE FOR THE 90TH ANNIVERSARY CHALICE Sacred vessels are of great importance to the liturgical life of any parish. They are made of precious metals and are hand-crafted so as to last for many years. As we prepare for our parish’s 90th anniversary liturgy to be held this Fall on October 17th, we’d like to purchase a beautiful chalice and paten which will mark the occasion and serve for years to come, holding the precious Body and Blood of Christ for the life of our people. If you would be interested in contributing towards or sponsoring this chalice and paten, memorializations are available. The total cost of the personally commissioned initiative from an artisan in Spain will be approximately $13,000. For more information, contact Father Davis or the Advancement Office, 305-446-9950. Considering all the streaks, stains, cracks, plaster damage, and paint chips that have been increasingly so evident on the exterior of our church, it has been decided that is needs a make-over and a fresh paint job. Bids have been acquired. Archdiocesan permissions have been secured. Hopefully all will be done in time for the 90th anniversary liturgy on October 17th. Almost all of the fundraising has already been done for this expensive project. We need approximately $10,000 more to reach the project goal. Sponsorships are welcome. Please contact Father Davis or our parish Advancement Office, 305-446-9950. Religious Education Program Join us on Saturday, May 7th at 6:45 am for the traditional First Saturday Devotion to Our Lady of Fatima. We will pray a Rosary and stay afterwards for the morning Mass. Sacramental Season is Upon Us! This Saturday, May 7th, our second graders from St. Theresa School will be receiving their First Hoy Communion in solemn ceremonies at 10am, 12:30pm, and 3pm.

On Tuesday, May 10th, 28 candidates from the Religious Education Program and RCIA will receive the Sacrament of Confirmation. Keep our children and candidates in your prayers. May Christ be praised! Our Sunday night Youth Group is in full swing! Approximately 5o parish teens gather after the Sunday night 5:30pm Parish Mass for fun activities, community building, meeting new and old friends, social experiences and friendly encouragement in our walk of faith, all done in a fun way. Those that have participated come back week after week. Consider joining us on Sunday nights. Bring a friend!
