Walking in the Light of the Lord Today we celebrate the Fourth Sunday of Lent. It is also known as Laetare Sunday. Laetare means rejoice. We are half‐way through Lent. Why are we rejoicing? Precisely because we are halfway through Lent! We can see the light at the end of the tunnel. If that light is still dim because we haven’t been pleased with our Lent so far, we still have time to change and allow for our heart’s conversion. The Collect (Opening Prayer) today has a sense of urgency about it. We hear of “prompt devotion”, “eager faith”, and that “people may hasten”. People may hasten to the solemn celebration to come. We are given a glimpse into the Resurrection that is coming. It is the encouragement we may need to continue our Lenten journey. Unlike our Jewish ancestors that we hear about in the First Reading today from Chronicles, we know how the story ends. We know that Jesus came as our Savior and Redeemer. The Israelites are in the midst of their exile wondering if they will ever be home. Then Cyrus, the King of Persia, allows those who belong to Judah to return to Jerusalem. There the Temple will be built. The people return, but still await the coming of the Messiah. Paul reminds the Ephesians and us that by faith we have been saved through God’s grace. This is not our doing, but a gift from God. Do I ever think of treating my faith as a true gift from God? Paul further reminds us that this gift is not from our work so we cannot boast; rather we are God’s handiwork. Again, do I ever think of myself in that way? If I did, I might take better care of what God has given me. In John’s Gospel today we hear one of the most quoted phrases in scripture. “God so loved the world that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him might not perish but have eternal life. (Jn3:16)” The light of God came into the world, but people prefer the darkness. We can’t see everything in the darkness. We can hide things in darkness. We can be sneaky in darkness. We are fooled by the darkness.

Let us live the second half of Lent in the light of Christ. The Truth comes to the Light. Christ is our Light.

Let the rest of our Lenten journey be a journey toward a place of all light and goodness. Let’s walk in the

Light of the Lord.

Caminando a la luz del Señor Hoy celebramos el cuarto domingo de Cuaresma. También se conoce como domingo de Laetare. Laetare significa regocijarse. Estamos a la mitad de la Cuaresma. ¿Por qué nos regocijamos? ¡Precisamente porque estamos a mitad de Cuaresma! Podemos ver la luz al final del túnel. Si esa luz todavía es tenue porque no hemos estado satisfechos con nuestra Cuaresma hasta ahora, todavía tenemos tiempo para cambiar y permitir la conversión de nuestro corazón. La Colecta (oración de apertura) de hoy tiene un sentido de urgencia. Oímos hablar de "devoción inmediata", "fe entusiasta" y que "la gente puede apresurarse". La gente puede apresurarse a la celebración solemne que se avecina. Se nos da un vistazo de la resurrección que se avecina. Es el estímulo que quizás necesitemos para continuar nuestro viaje de Cuaresma. A diferencia de nuestros antepasados judíos de los que escuchamos hoy en la Primera lectura de Crónicas, sabemos cómo termina la historia. Sabemos que Jesús vino como nuestro Salvador y Redentor. Los israelitas están en medio de su exilio y se preguntan si alguna vez volverán a casa. Entonces Ciro, el rey de Persia, permite que los que pertenecen a Judá regresen a Jerusalén. Allí se construirá el Templo. La gente regresa, pero todavía espera la venida del Mesías. Pablo les recuerda a los efesios y a nosotros que por la fe hemos sido salvados por la gracia de Dios. Esto no es obra nuestra, sino un regalo de Dios. ¿Pienso alguna vez en tratar mi fe como un verdadero regalo de Dios? Pablo nos recuerda además que este regalo no es de nuestro trabajo, por lo que no podemos jactarnos; más bien somos obra de Dios. Una vez más, ¿alguna vez pienso en mí mismo de esa manera? Si lo hiciera, podría cuidar mejor lo que Dios me ha dado. En el Evangelio de Juan hoy escuchamos una de las frases más citadas de las Escrituras. “Tanto amó Dios al mundo que dio a su Hijo unigénito, para que todo el que crea en él no se pierda, sino que tenga vida eterna. (Jn3: 16) ”La luz de Dios entró en el mundo, pero la gente prefiere las tinieblas. No podemos ver todo en la oscuridad. Podemos esconder cosas en la oscuridad. Podemos ser furtivos en la oscuridad. Nos engaña la oscuridad. Vivamos la segunda mitad de la Cuaresma a la luz de Cristo. La Verdad llega a la Luz. Cristo es nuestra Luz. Dejemos que el resto de nuestro viaje de Cuaresma sea un viaje hacia un lugar de toda luz y bondad. Caminemos en la Luz del Señor.

REFLECT How is the corporal work of mercy to feed the hungry demonstrated in this story? How can you help to feed the hungry?

REFLEXIONA ¿Cómo se demuestra en esta historia la obra corporal de misericordia de dar de comer al hambriento? ¿Cómo puedes ayudar a alimentar a quienes tienen hambre?

I know the vegetables provide essential vitamins for them. -Eliza

Timor-Leste is a small Asian country, slightly larger than the state of Connecticut. It’s on the other side of the world near Australia, and it’s one of the world’s newest countries—only 18 years old. In comparison, the United States will be 245 years old this year! Many families in Timor-Leste live in rural areas and work as farmers. But challenges like changing weather patterns make it difficult to grow enough food. They depend on rice as a main part of their meals, and hunger and malnutrition are big problems. More than one-third of people in Timor-Leste don’t have reliable access to enough nutritious food. This especially affects children and their ability to develop to their full potential With training from CRS, families are starting home gardens to grow different vegetables, beans and other foods that are rich in nutrients like vitamin A and iron. The gardens are built to withstand droughts and flooding, and the families add the food they grow—such as spinach, cabbage, peanuts, carrots and tomatoes—to their daily rice staple, providing more nourishing meals that help children grow and stay healthy. Parents attend nutrition groups in their communities where they learn how to build and improve their gardens. They also learn new recipes that incorporate the produce they grow—and they sometimes have cooking competitions to see who can prepare the tastiest meal! Eliza and her husband Paulino have six children. After participating in her community’s nutrition group, she and Paulino started a home garden and began growing different crops based on the rainy and dry seasons. They also started raising chickens, which provide additional protein to their meals and income from selling the eggs. Eliza wants her children to be healthy and says, “I know the vegetables provide essential vitamins for them.”

Sé que las verduras proporcionan vitaminas esenciales para ellos. –Eliza

Timor Oriental es un pequeño país asiático, ligeramente más grande que el estado de Connecticut. Está del otro lado del mundo, cerca de Australia, y es uno de los países más jóvenes, pues solo tiene 18 años. En comparación, ¡los Estados Unidos cumplirán 245 años este año!

Muchas familias de Timor Oriental viven en zonas rurales y trabajan como agricultores. Pero desafíos como los cambios climáticos hacen que sea difícil cultivar suficiente comida. Dependen del arroz como parte principal de sus comidas, y el hambre y la desnutrición son grandes problemas. Más de un tercio de las personas en Timor Oriental no tiene acceso a suficientes alimentos nutritivos. Esto afecta especialmente a los niños y su capacidad para desarrollarse al máximo.

Con el entrenamiento de CRS, las familias están empezando a cultivar diferentes verduras, frijoles y otros alimentos ricos en nutrientes como la vitamina A y el hierro. Los huertos están construidos para soportar sequías e inundaciones, y las familias agregan lo que cultivan (espinacas, repollo, cacahuates, zanahorias y tomates) a su arroz diario, sirviendo comidas más nutritivas que ayudan a los niños a crecer y mantenerse saludables.

Los padres asisten a grupos de nutrición en sus comunidades donde aprenden a construir y mejorar sus huertos. También aprenden recetas nuevas con los ingredientes que cultivan. ¡A veces hasta tienen concursos de cocina para ver quién prepara el platillo más sabroso!

Eliza y su esposo Paulino tienen seis hijos. Después de participar en el grupo de nutrición de su comunidad, ellos comenzaron su huerto casero y sembraron diferentes cultivos basados en las estaciones lluviosas y secas. También comenzaron a criar pollos, pues brindan proteínas adicionales a sus comidas e ingresos por la venta de los huevos. Eliza quiere que sus hijos estén sanos; “sé que las verduras proporcionan vitaminas esenciales para ellos”, comenta ella.

CRS RICE BOWL: A story of hope from Timor-Leste

PLATO DE ARROZ DE CRS: Una historia de esperanza de Timor Oriental


HUMAN HISTORY . . . Today’s reading from 2 Chronicles is the conclusion of these two volumes, a brief summary of Judah’s infidelity under a sequence of kings and the subsequent seventy years of exile in Babylon. This abbreviated sequence recaps the events treated in earlier chapters, concluding with Jerusalem being conquered and its inhabitants deported by to Babylon. After the Babylonians were conquered by Cyrus and the Persians, Cyrus built the great Persian Empire that covered almost the entire ancient Near East. Unlike the earlier Assyrians and Babylonians, Cyrus did not rule by deporting and enslaving peoples he defeated. Instead, he organized his empire into regional governments and funded their construction projects, ruling over all with the title King of Kings (among others). In this spirit, Cyrus urged the exiles to return to Jerusalem to rebuild their temple and their native culture. In Jewish terms, Cyrus was a “messiah” (Hebrew), or a christos (Greek), someone anointed by God to carry out this divine mission.

. . . AND DIVINE RESCUE The return from exile in Babylon was second only to the Exodus from Egypt as a founding narrative shaping the Jewish identity into which Jesus was born and in which his church took root and began to grow. If we read between the lines of the two New Testament readings from today, we can see the outlines of this same pattern of God bringing humanity from sorrow into joy: The Hebrews’ slavery in Egypt and the Judeans’ exile in Babylonia reveal a universal truth, that we belong to the God who is “rich in mercy,” and we are assured that “when we were dead in our transgressions,” God “so loved the world” that he sent Jesus to be the way of our redemption, our salvation. The Fourth Sunday of Lent is sometimes called “Laetare Sunday,” or “Rejoice! Sunday.” Even if we feel overwhelmed by the darkness of sin (our own and others’), wondering whether God really is working on our behalf, we can put our faith in today’s Word that it is so. For this, we can truly rejoice—we are more than halfway to Easter! Today’s Readings: 2 Chr 36:14-–16, 19–23; Ps 137:1–2, 3, 4–5, 6; Eph 2:4–10; Jn 3:14–21

LA HISTORIA DE LA HUMANIDAD La lectura de hoy del libro 2 Crónicas es la conclusión de estos dos libros, un resumen breve de la infidelidad de Judá bajo una serie de reyes y los subsiguientes setenta años de exilio en Babilonia. Esta serie abreviada resume los eventos que se trataron en los capítulos anteriores, concluyendo con la conquista de Jerusalén y la deportación de sus habitantes a Babilonia.

Después de que los babilonios fueron conquistados por Ciro y los persas, Ciro construyó el gran Imperio Persa que incluía todo el antiguo Oriente Cercano. A diferencia de los anteriores asirios y babilonios, Ciro no gobernó deportando y esclavizando a los pueblos que derrotaba. Al contrario, él organizó su imperio en gobiernos regionales y financió sus proyectos de construcción, gobernando sobre todo con el titulo (entre otros) Rey de Reyes. Con este espíritu, Ciro instó a los exiliados a regresar a Jerusalén para que reconstruyeran su templo y su cultura originaria. En términos judíos, Ciro era un “mesías” (hebreo) o un cristo (griego), alguien ungido por Dios para llevar a cabo esta misión divina.

. . . Y EL RESCATE DIVINO El regreso del exilio de Babilonia fue el segundo después del Éxodo de Egipto, como una narración fundacional que determinó la identidad judía en la que nació Jesús y en la que la Iglesia se enraizó y comenzó a crecer. Si leemos entre las líneas de las dos lecturas del Nuevo Testamento de hoy, podemos ver los contornos de este mismo patrón de Dios trayendo a la humanidad del dolor al gozo: la esclavitud de los hebreos en Egipto y el exilio de los judíos en Babilonia revelan una verdad universal, que pertenecemos al Dios que es “rico en misericordia”, y se nos asegura que “cuando estábamos muertos en nuestras transgresiones”, Dios “amó tanto al mundo” que envió a Jesús para que fuera el camino de nuestra redención, nuestra salvación.

El Cuarto Domingo de Cuaresma a veces se le suele llamar “Domingo Laetare”, o “Domingo de la Alegría”. Incluso si nos sentimos abrumados por la oscuridad del pecado (del nuestro y de otros), preguntándonos si Dios realmente está obrando en nuestro favor, podemos poner nuestra fe en la Palabra de hoy de que es así. Por esto, podemos regocijarnos de verdad, ¡estamos a más de medio camino para la Pascua!

Lecturas de hoy: 2 Cr 36:14—16, 19–23; Sal 137 (136):1–2, 3, 4–5, 6; Ef 2:4–10; Jn 3:14–21
