r-:---------Sth Sunday of Easter - "I give you a new com-mandment: love one another. As I have loved you, so you also should love one another." John 13:34 It is easy to love someone when they love you back. But it takes strength and courage to love someone when we feel unappreciated, used or feel our opinion doesn' t matter. It takes courage to " love my neighbor" when he may be someone I don 't like, someone l don't know or someone that doesn ' t look like me.

5° Domingo de Pascua - "Les doy un nuevo man­damiento: amense unos a otros. Como Los l,e amado, tambien deben amarse unos a otros." Juan 13: Es facil arnar a alguien cuando el amor es correspondido. Pero se necesita fuerza y valor para amar a alguien cu­nado nos sentimos despreciados, usados, o sentimos que nuestra opinion no importa. Se necesita valor para "amar a mi pr6jimo" cuando puede ser al_guien quo no me gusta, algu1en que no conozco o algu1en que no se parece a mi.

A New Heaven and a New Earth ~~

Today's Readings : Acts 14:21- 27; Psalm 145:8- 9, 10- 11, 12 - 13; Reve lation 21:1- 5a; John 13:31- 33a, 34- 35. "Behold , I make all thin gs new." In the Second Read in g,

Joh n's description of a new heaven and a new earth provides

a glimpse of the Parousia , a time when eve ry thing wi ll be

made new. The g lory of God will be revealed then and the

fa ithful wi ll be transformed. This reading is one of the

options for a funeral. Mourners are comfor ted by hea ring of

the old order passing away and the p er on entering a place where pain does not exist.

Before Jesus left hi disciples, he gave them a new

Commandment that wou ld lead to a new way of be ing. By

lovi ng one another, Jesus said, they wou ld be known as hi s

di sc iples. Love is a witness to the wo rld . Jesus te ll s his fol ­

lowers to love "as I have loved you.'. ' How is th is love diffe r­

ent from the way human beings often love?

During the fifty days of Easter, we rejoice in k nowi ng

that Jesus loved us so much that he died and rose from the

dead , re leasing from death those who believe. Knowing

Ch ri st means becoming more like him , loving others as he

loved . How can you continue to be open to God's transform­

ing love so that your li fe can glorify him? ReAecl on this

during your quiet prayer time.

THIS W EK AT HOME Mond · May 20 1 he ParaclPte Jes_u_s prepares the disciples that "the Paraclete, the Holy Sptnt whom the Father will send in my name, wi ll instruct you in everything, and remind you of all that I told you." Have there been times in your life when you were especially ~ware of the presence of the Holy Spirit? What was happen­mg that made you feel that presence? Today's Readings: Acts 14:5- 18; Psalm 115:1-2, 3- 4, 15- 16; John 14:21- 26.

Jesus tells his friends not to be distressed or afraid as he is going away for a while. At this moment of their great fear, he offers them the gift of his peace. This peace is one that no fea~, a~xiety, o_r worry can touch. Have you ever had peace amtd times of illness or trouble? Are you able to contribute to peace among your family and coworkers? Or do you find yourself bringing fear and worry? Jesus offers us the gift of peace, it is ours to accept or reject. Today's Readings: Acts 14:19- 28; Psalm 145:10- 11, 12- 13, 21; John 14:27- Jla.

Wt•d llt'~d ,1 Y, \1 ,1' 2 2 St. ~ita of C a<-il 1t1 As a young woman, St. Rita of Cascia sought religious life, but her family had other plans for her. She dutifully married and bore two sons. After becoming a widow and upon the de~th of her sons, she entered religious life. At age sixty, while meditating upon the crucified Christ, a thorn pene­trated her forehead and she was afflicted with this stigmata for more than fifteen year . She offered up her constant pain for the physica l and spiritua l comfort of others. Is there an illness or burden that you are dealing w ith today? How can you offer that to the Lord? Today's Readings: Acts 15:1- 6; Psalm 122:1- 2, 3-4ab, 4cd- 5; John 15:1- 8.

3 Your Joy M yBeC<-11plt After Jesus compares the love that he has for his followers to God's love for him, he gives what seems like a simple direc­tive. The disciples can remain in his Jove if they keep the commandments just as he has kept the Father's command­ments. By remai ning in Jesus, the disciples ' "joy may be complete." The source of complete joy is the deep and com­plete love of God . Can you imagine such joy in your life? Today's Readings: Acts 15:7- 21; Psalm 96:1-2, 2-3, JO; John 15:9-11.

Be · n n rruit of Ln ' t Jesus concludes the parable of the true vine as he tells the disciples that they are to bear fru it that wi ll remain. The faithful bear fru it by living out the love of God. Those who love are not only disc iples but fr iends of Jesus. After all, he tells his followers, "I have told you everything." Indeed, we only tell our closest fr iends everything. Today's Readings: Acts 15:22- 31; Psalm 57:8-9, 10- 12; John 15:12- 17.

da , May 2 The World o Hal , "If they persecuted me, they wi ll also persecute you." At times , living out the Gospel will mean becoming isolated from friends and fami ly. Jesus tells his disciples that follow­ing him comes with a price. Sometimes that price includes being hated. Our consolation is knowing the Lord. If you have ever been the one who ostracized someone for their belief, request forg iveness . Today's Readings: Acts 16:1- 10; Psalm 100:1-2, 3, 5; John 15:18- 21.

Lecturas del dfa: Hechos 14:21- 27; Salmo 145:8-9, 10- Jl,

12-13; Apocalipsis 21:l -5a; Juan 13:31-33a, 34-35. "Mira, yo hago nuevas todas las cosas". En el Apocalipsis,

san Juan describe un cielo nuevo y una tierra nueva que anti­cipan la Parusfa, el tiempo en el que todo sera nuevo. La

glor ia de Dios sera revelada y Ios fieles transformados. Esta lectura es una de las opciones para un funeral. Los dolientes

se sienten reconfortados cuando escuchan que el orden viejo

ha pasado y que la persona entra a un lugar donde el doior no existe mas.

En su despedida, Jesus dej6 a sus discfpulos un man­dam iento nuevo para conducirlos a una nueva manera de ser.

De amarse unos a otros, Jes dijo Jesus, serfan reconocidos

como discfpulos suyos. El amor da testimonio frente al mundo. Jesus Jes dice a sus seguidores que seamen "como

yo los he amado". lEn que se diferencia este amor de la forma en que los seres humanos aman a menudo?

Durante los cincuenta dfas de Pascua, nos regocijamos

al saber que Jesus nos am6 tanto que muri6 y resucit6 de

entre los muertos, liberando de la muerte a los creyentes. Conocer a Cristo significa asemejarnos mas a el, amando como el. 6C6mo puede usted seguir abierto al amor transfor­

mador de Dios para glorificarlo con su vida? Reflexione en esto cuando ore en silencio.

ESTA SEMANA EN CASA I unes, 20 de mayo El Paraclito Jesus anticipa a sus discfpulos que "el Paracli to, el Espfritu Santo que enviara el Padre en mi nombre, Jes ense nara todo Y Jes recordara todo lo que les he dicho". lEn que momento de su vida ha estado usted mas consciente de la presencia del Esp fritu Santo? l Que estaba suced iendo que le h izo sen ti r dic ha presencia? Lecturas del d{a: Hechos 14:5- 18; Sa lmo ll5:l - 2, 3- 4, 15- 16; Ju an 14:21 - 26.

I\ arle~, 21 de mayo Les doy n1i paz Aunque se va por un tiempo, Jesus Jes dice a lo suyos que no se angustien n i tengan miedo. Para aqu ietarlos, !es da su paz. Esta es una paz que ningun mi edo, ansiedad o preocu ­

pac i?n puede alterar. 0 lguna vez se ha sentido lleno de paz en t, empos de enferm edad o p roble mas? lEs usted capaz de ofrecer paz e ntre su Fam ilia y los compafieros de trabajo? llncentiva usted el miedo y la preocupaci6n? Jesus nos regala su paz, pero es nuestro el acepta rl a o rechazarl a. Lecturas del d[a: Hechos 14:19- 28; Salmo 145:10- 11, 12 - 13, 21; Juan 14:27- 3Ja.

l\ iercoles, 22 de mayo Santa Rita de Casia Siendo joven, santa Rita de Casia querfa ingresar a la vida rcligiosa, pero su familia le tenfa otros planes. Obedientemenle se cas6 Y tuvo dos hijos. Luego de converl irse en viuda y de morir sus hijos, ingres6 a la vida religiosa. Tenfa scsenla aiios cuando meditando sabre e l C ri sto c ruci ficado, una espina le penetr6 en la frente y estuvo aftig ida con e te estigma por mas de qu i nee anos. El la ofreci6 su dolor constante por el bienestar ffs ico y espiritual de los demas . l Hay a lguna carga o enferme­dad con la que este usted li diando hoy? lC6mo ofrece eso a l Senor? Lecturas del d{a: Hechos 15:1- 6; Salmo 122:1- 2, 3- 4ab, 4cd- 5; Juan 15:1- 8.

Jueves, 23 de mayo Pa,ra que su alegria es te comple ta Jesus compara el arnor que tiene por us seg uidores con el amor de Dios por e l, y luego los in struye. Los di scipu los sera n capaces de permanecer en su amor si guardan los man ­damientos ta l coma el ha hecho con los mand a m ientos del Pad re. D e perm anecer en Jesus , el "gozo de los discfpulos sera comp leto". La fuente de la completa alegrfa e el a mor profundo y tota l de Dias. lPuede u ted im ag inar tanta aleg rfa en su vida? Lecturas del dfa: Hechos J 5:7- 21; Salmo 96:1- 2, 2- 3, JO; Juan 15:9- 11.

Viern "i 24 de mayo Dar frutos de amor La imagen de la vid verdadera concluye in truyendo a los d iscfpu los para que den frutos perdu rables. Los fi eles da n fruto cuando viven el amor de Dias . Los que aman no son so lo di scfpulos si no amigos de Jesus. El !es dice a sus seg ui ­dore : "Les he dicho to do". En efecto, solo les dec imos todo a nu stros amigos mas cercanos. Lecturas del d{a: Hee hos 15:22 - 31; Salmo 57:8- 9, 10- 12; Ju an 15:12- 17.

' lndo, 25 de ma o El odio del 1nundo "S i me per iguieron, tambien los perseguiran". En ocasiones, vivir el Evangelia sig nificara aislarse de amigos y fam ili ares. J~sus les advierte a sus discfpulos que seguirlo tiene un pre­c ,o; a lgun as veces ese precio incluye ser od iado. uestro consuelo es conocer al Senor. Si alguna vez usted ha excluido a alguie n por su fe o creencias, pida pe rd6n . Lecturas del d[a: Hechos 16:1- 10; Salmo 100:1- 2, 3, 5; Juan 15:18- 21.

P.E.R.A. (Perpetual Eucharistic Reparative Adoration)

We are inviting and highly encouraging everyone to sign-up for our "P.E.R.A." (Perpetual Eucharistic Reparative Adoration). We are asking everyone to devote ONE HOUR (at least) a WEEK adoring God in the Blessed Sacrament- that is, only asking 168 parishioners to make adoration of God everyday, 24/7! We do this as a Parish Community in response to the teaching of St. John Paul II:

The "Church and the world have a great need/or Eucharis­tic worship. Jesus awaits us in this sacrament of love. let us not refuse ,tire time to go to meet him in adoration, in con­templation full of faith, and open to make amends for the serious offenses and crimes of the world. let our adoration never cease."

(Dominicae cenae, 3) Please call Mary Rangel@ 936-419-9024.
