3 PASTOR S MESSAGE 3 Dear brothers and sisters: The words that we hear today are strong and clear: "Remain in my love! This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you" (Jn 15: 9, 12). And love is demanding. Christ says: "Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends" (Jn 15: 13). Love will lead Jesus to the cross. Every disciple must remember this. Love comes from the upper room and leads back to the upper room. In fact, after the Resurrection it will be in the upper room again that the Apostles will think back to the words Jesus spoke on Holy Thursday and will become aware of their salvific meaning. By accepting and corresponding to Christ's love, from now on they are His friends: "No longer do I call you servants, for the servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all that I have heard from my Father I have made known to you" (Jn 15: 15).May our Lady, Mother of Love teach us the Love of her Son. God bless you. Fr Javier Ss.

PHÚC ÂM: Ga 15, 9-17 Không có tình yêu nào lớn hơn tình yêu của người thí mạng vì bạn hữu mình". Tin Mừng Chúa Giêsu Kitô theo Thánh Gioan. Khi ấy, Chúa Giêsu phán cùng các môn đệ rằng: "Như Cha đã yêu mến Thầy, Thầy cũng yêu mến các con. Hãy ở lại trong tình yêu của Thầy. Nếu các con tuân lệnh Thầy truyền, các con sẽ ở trong tình yêu của Thầy, cũng như Thầy đã giữ lệnh truyền của Cha Thầy, nên Thầy ở lại trong tình yêu của Người. Thầy nói với các con điều đó để niềm vui của Thầy ở trong các con, và niềm vui của các con được trọn vẹn. Đây là lệnh truyền của Thầy: Các con hãy yêu mến nhau, như Thầy đã yêu mến các con. Không có tình yêu nào lớn hơn tình yêu của người thí mạng vì bạn hữu mình. Các con là bạn hữu của Thầy, nếu các con thi hành những điều Thầy truyền. Thầy không còn gọi các con là tôi tớ, vì tôi tớ không biết việc chủ làm; Thầy gọi các con là bạn hữu, vì tất cả những gì Thầy đã nghe biết nơi Cha Thầy, thì Thầy đã cho các con biết. Không phải các con đã chọn Thầy, nhưng chính Thầy đã chọn các con, và đã cắt đặt để các con đi và mang lại hoa trái, và để hoa trái các con tồn tại, để những gì các con xin Cha nhân danh Thầy, Người sẽ ban cho các con. Thầy truyền cho các con điều này là các con hãy yêu mến nhau". Đó là lời Chúa.

Jesús nos dice: ámense unos a otros como yo los he amado (Juan 15:12). La carta del apóstol san Juan retoma este mandamiento. Por supuesto, debemos amar a nuestros familiares, nuestros colegas, las personas que nos agradan. Pero la Sagrada Escritura aclara que también debemos amar a los que ignoramos, a los que evitamos deliberadamente e incluso a los que nos sentimos tentados de despreciar. En la selección de los Hechos de los Apóstoles para este domingo, Pedro nos muestra hasta dónde llega el amor de Dios y hasta dónde debe llegar nuestra respuesta de amor. Pedro comprende que Dios ya no hace distinciones y no comparte su amor divino exclusivamente con los judíos. Cristo ha revelado que el amor de Dios llega a todas las personas y lo mismo debe hacer el nuestro. Copyright J. S. Paluch Co., Inc. LOS SANTOS Y OTRAS CELEBRACIONES Domingo: Sexto Domingo de Pascua Jueves: La Ascención del Señor (a menos que sea transferida al domingo) o San Damiano José de Veuster Sábado: Santos Nereo y Aquiles; San Pancracio
