2 Dear Parishioners, PASTOR S LETTER/ CARTA DEL PASTOR A lot of people have been trying the Lectio Divina prayer! That is great! However, they are also discovering that it is very different than what they are used to and have a lot of questions. In an effort to help I will explain a little bit more, Lectio Divina is traditionally divided into four movements: Lectio Read - read the words and pay attention, understand, notice what you are drawn to, and follow it. Meditatio- Meditate Sit with it, like you are sitting next to a creek of water flowing by with Jesus sitting next to you. Reflect on it. Learn from it. Admire its beauty. Oratio- Pray What do you wish to say to God? Speak to Him who loves you. Your prayer will flow from the passage you read Thank you Lord for.. Help me to see.. Be close to my friend struggling with. Help to forgive like Contempatio Contemplate Rest. Look with love on Jesus, and be silent. Be silent! Let Him fill you with His love. Be at peace. Stay here until Jesus is done. Blessings, Fr. Peter Queridos Parriquianos, Mucha gente ha estado intentando la oración de Lectio Divina! Eso es genial! Sin embargo, también están descubriendo que es muy diferente de lo que están acostumbrados y tienen muchas preguntas. En un esfuerzo por ayudar voy a explicar un poco más, Lectio Divina se divide tradicionalmente en cuatro movimientos: Lectio - Leer - lea las palabras y preste atención, comprenda, observe a qué se siente atraído y síguelo. Meditatio: Medita: siéntate con él, como si estuvieras sentado junto a un arroyo de agua que fluye con Jesús sentado a tu la do. Reflexiona sobre eso. Aprenda de ello. Admire su belleza Oratio- Orar - Qué le quieres decir a Dios? Habla con Él que te ama. Tu oración fluirá del pasaje que leas... "Gracias Señor por..." "Ayúdame a ver..." "Sé cercano a mi amigo que lucha con..." "Ayuda a perdonar como..." Contempatio - Contemplar - Descanso. Mira con amor a Jesús, y calla. Calla! Deja que Él te llene con Su amor. Estar en paz. Quédate aquí hasta que Jesús termine. Bendiciones, Padre Pedro
