3 PASTOR S MESSAGE 3 3 Dear brothers and sisters As we continue to celebrate the Resurrection of our Lord, the time of Easter, our Holy Mother Church wants us to meditate on the different accounts of this mystery. We are to contemplate the Risen Lord, when He appeared, to His apostles. In today s Gospel He demonstrates the reality of His resurrection. "Look at my hands and my feet, that it is I myself". By His miraculous entry through closed doors, says saint Cyril of Alexandria, Christ proved to His disciples that by nature He was God and also that He was none other than their former companion. By showing them His side and the marks of the nails, He convinced them beyond a doubt that He had raised the temple His body, the very body that had hung upon the cross (cf Jn 2:19). He had destroyed death s power over the flesh, for as God, He was life itself We have only to recall Christ's transfiguration on the mountain in the presence of His holy disciples (Mt 17:1f.), to realize that mortal eyes could not have endured the glory of His sacred body had He chosen to reveal it before ascending to the Father And so, before allowing the glory that belonged to it by every right to transfigure the temple of His body, our Lord Jesus Christ in his wisdom appeared to His disciples in the form that they had known. He wished them to believe that He had risen from the dead in the very body that He had received from the blessed Virgin, and in which He had suffered crucifixion and death, as the Scriptures had foretold When Christ greeted His holy disciples with the words: Peace be with you, by peace He meant himself, for Christ's presence always brings tranquility of soul. This is the grace Saint Paul desired for believers when He wrote: The ''peace of Christ, which passes all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds. (Phil 4:7) The peace of Christ which passes all understanding, that Saint Paul wrote about, is in fact the Spirit of Christ, who fills all those who share in Him with every blessing. God bless you Fr. Javier Ibarra IVE Buela Youth Orchestra and Minor Seminary Events Please join us Saturday April 28, 2:30-3:30 pm to hear The Buela Youth Orchestra and The Minor Seminary students perform a string, piano, and organ recital, in the Church.

Khi ấy, hai môn đệ thuật lại các việc đã xảy ra dọc đường và hai ông đã nhận ra Người lúc bẻ bánh như thế nào. Mọi người còn đang bàn chuyện thì Chúa Giêsu hiện ra đứng giữa họ và phán: "Bình an cho các con! Thầy đây, đừng sợ". Nhưng mọi người bối rối tưởng mình thấy ma. Chúa lại phán: "Sao các con bối rối và lòng các con lo nghĩ như vậy? Hãy xem tay chân Thầy: chính Thầy đây! Hãy sờ mà xem: ma đâu có xương thịt như các con thấy Thầy có đây". Nói xong, Người đưa tay chân cho họ xem. Thấy họ còn chưa tin, và vì vui mừng mà bỡ ngỡ, Chúa hỏi: "Ở đây các con có gì ăn không?" Họ dâng cho Người một mẩu cá nướng và một tảng mật ong. Người ăn trước mặt các ông và đưa phần còn lại cho họ. Đoạn Người phán: "Đúng như lời Thầy đã nói với các con, khi Thầy còn ở với các con, là cần phải ứng nghiệm hết mọi lời đã ghi chép về Thầy trong luật Môsê, trong sách tiên tri và thánh vịnh". Rồi Người mở trí cho các ông am hiểu Kinh Thánh. Người lại nói: "Có lời chép rằng: Đấng Kitô sẽ phải chịu thương khó, và ngày thứ ba Người sẽ từ cõi chết sống lại. Rồi phải nhân danh Người rao giảng sự thống hối và sự ăn năn để lãnh ơn tha tội cho muôn dân, bắt đầu từ thành Giêrusalem. Còn các con, các con sẽ làm chứng nhân về những điều ấy". Đó là lời Chúa.

(A Summer Bible Camp for children and youth!) Catechesis of the Good Shepherd Liturgy of Light This past Monday as the children, parents, and family members processed through the hallways singing and following the Easter Candle from the Atrium to the Church, we pondered the Light of Christ given to us at our Baptism and the True presence of Christ in the Blessed Sacrament. During the celebration, Father handed each child a candle lit from the Easter Candle and says, Name, receive the Light of Christ! A time of Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament followed as we prayed a decade of the Rosary, sang praises, and listened quietly in our hearts for God s message to us. O Sacrament Most Holy, O Sacrament Divine, all praise and all thanksgiving be every moment Thine.

7 3 er Domingo de Pascua 15 de Abril de 2018 Miércoles 18 de Abril Hay clases de catecismo Regalo de Pascua En la entrada de la Iglesia van a encontrar copias del libro Bella Esperanza que ustedes pueden tomar gratis. LECTURAS DE LA SEMANA CREER EN JESUCRISTO Durante todo el Tiempo Pascual, las tres lecturas del domingo son tomadas del Nuevo Testamento, la parte cristiana de la Sagrada Escritura. Juntas exploran qué significa creer que Jesús es el Cristo, aquél que cumplió las profecías de la Sagrada Escritura judía. Las selecciones de hoy aluden a nuestra debilidad humana; sin embargo, hacen hincapié en el perdón y la paz que son posibles para quienes tienen fe en Jesucristo, el Justo (1 Juan 2:2). En los Hechos de los Apóstoles, Pedro nos dice a todos arrepiéntanse y conviértanse, para que se borren sus pecados (Hechos 3:19). La primera carta del apóstol san Juan dice que Jesucristo es víctima de expiación por nuestros pecados (1 Juan 2:2). Por último, en el Evangelio, Jesús saluda a los discípulos diciéndoles: Paz y los insta a predicar la necesidad de volverse a Dios y el perdón de los pecados (Lucas 24:47). Copyright J. S.
