An amazing thing about a vine and its branches is that you can t tell the difference between them. Look at a grapevine and try to determine which is the branch and which is the vine or trunk.

Second, the sap that springs from the vine, runs through the branches, and matures in the fruit is all the same. The life in Jesus and the life in us as Christians are the same.

This is why Jesus can guarantee that, if we remain in him by listening to his word and following his Spirit, we will definitely bear much fruit. His word and Spirit cannot remain sterile in us.

2 April 29, 2018 Fifth Sunday of Easter (B) Acts 9: Jn 3:18 24 Jn 15:1 8 The Vine and the Branches Become One J esus himself picked the image of the vine to describe the reality of our being united to him and the Father. And this was not lost on early Christians. One of the first images they used to mark their graves was the vine and branches. An amazing thing about a vine and its branches is that you can t tell the difference between them. Look at a grapevine and try to determine which is the branch and which is the vine or trunk. You can t, since it appears as one seamless reality. Jesus invites us to be so close to him that we appear to be just like him other Christs, as our name Christian suggests! Second, the sap that springs from the vine, runs through the branches, and matures in the fruit is all the same. The life in Jesus and the life in us as Christians are the same. He has given us the same Spirit that animated him, the Holy Spirit. This is why Jesus can guarantee that, if we remain in him by listening to his word and following his Spirit, we will definitely bear much fruit. His word and Spirit cannot remain sterile in us. The most important result of being united to Jesus and bearing fruit is that not only Piece: Sarcophagus With the Good Shepherd and Symbolic will we be united to him in this life, but this Vine, fourth century friendship will last for all eternity. That s why Artist: Unknown early Christians put vines on their tombs. Location: Vatican Museums Fr. Mark Haydu, LC For Reflection Do I find ways to regularly read and hear the word of God? What symbols would sincerely represent the way I live my life? The was being built up and walked in the fear of the Lord, and with the consolation of the Holy Spirit it grew in numbers. Acts 9: Liguori Publications Liguori, MO J esús mismo escogió la imagen de la vid para describir la realidad de nuestro estar unido a él y al Padre. Y esto no estaba perdido en los primeros cristianos. Una de las primeras imágenes que usaron para marcar sus tumbas fue la vid y las ramas. Una cosa sorprendente acerca de una vid y sus ramas es que no se puede distinguir entre ellas. Mira una vid e intenta determinar cuál es la rama y cuál es la enredadera o el tronco. No se puede, ya que aparece como una realidad sin fisuras. Jesús nos invita a estar tan cerca de él que parecemos ser como él: otros Cristos, como nuestro nombre sugiere Christian. En segundo lugar, la savia que brota de la vid, corre a través de las ramas y madura en la fruta es la misma. La vida en Jesús y la vida en nosotros como cristianos son lo mismo. Él nos ha dado el mismo Espíritu que lo animó a él, el Espíritu Santo. Es por eso que Jesús puede garantizar que, si permanecemos en él escuchando su palabra y siguiendo su Espíritu, de verdad daremos mucho fruto. Su palabra y Espíritu no pueden permanecer estériles en nosotros. El resultado más importante de estar unido a Jesús y llevar fruto es que no solo nos uniremos a él en esta vida, sino que esta amistad durará por toda la eternidad. Es por eso que los primeros cristianos ponen vides en sus tumbas.

I felt guilty because I didn t sign up for anything. Do I have an obligation to join any of the parish organizations? When you join any of your parish organizations, you will experience a network of people dedicated to building up the body of Christ through the various parish ministries. According to the Code of Canon Law, the baptized are fundamentally united in the communio fidelium, a dynamic reality requiring the active participation of all the faithful in the s life and mission (Canon 209). It finds visible expression through public worship and through the exercise of obligations and rights. As a parish member, you are obligated to maintain communion with the ; to fulfill your particular duties to the universal and your parish church; to live a holy life and promote the growth of the ; to work to spread the gospel; and to follow what the pastor and bishops declare as teachers of the faith and leaders of the (Canons ). Laypeople are called to infuse their faith in Christ through all their undertakings in the secular world and within the. The various organized ministries of the parish offer ways that you, as a parishioner, can fulfill some of those obligations as you are able, in the s life and mission inside and outside your parish. Perhaps you will rethink your decision to not sign up for anything. It s never too late to become a parish volunteer!
