How can I bring
peace into my
relationships
this week?
En el Evangelio de Hoy
¿Cómo puedo
traer la paz a
mis relaciones
esta semana?
Dear Parishioners,
Alleluia!! He is Risen!!
Our parish, and each parishioner, needs to really hear the words of Jesus in today’s gospel: “I am
with you always, until the end of the age.” What greater gift can we receive than the abiding
presence of the Lord? He promised to be with us--to abide, to live in us--forever.
It seems to me that one fundamental problem is that perhaps we are not content with what Jesus
wants to give us. Often, it seems, we are looking for something else, something less than Jesus.
We’d be happy to just have friendship with others who look or think or speak like us, or who share
the same beliefs as us. If this is the case (as it so often is) then our coming together as a Church is
in reality very superficial, and any unity that we claim is destined to collapse at the slightest trial.
Today we celebrate Pentecost, the birth of the Church, when the Holy Spirit of the Father and the
Son descended in fire and force upon the apostles. It is the very Real Presence of the Triune God
Himself in sanctified human bodies and action. We need this Presence; the world needs this
Presence. Jesus continues to be in the world--to the end of the age--through the Church. Today, I
invite you to open yourself to His Presence so that we may all be transformed.
Don’t settle for anything less.
Thank you for all that you do to strengthen our communion with Jesus Christ. Please know that I
keep each of you in my prayers. God bless you!
In the Risen One,
Fr. B.

Nuestra parroquia, y cada feligrés, necesita realmente escuchar las palabras de Jesús del Evangelio

en nosotros – por siempre.
Jesus Madrigal Blessing
Me parece que el problema fundamental puede ser que quizás no estamos contentos con lo que
Eloisa Vargas Blessing
Jesús quiere darnos. A menudo, parece, estamos buscando por algo diferente, algo menos que
Sun 7:30am
Jesús. Estaríamos muy felices con sólo amistar con los que se visten, o piensan o hablan o que

comparten las mismas creencias que nosotros. Si este es el case (como lo es muy a menudo)

entonces nuestro estar juntos como Iglesia es en realidad muy superficial, y cualquier unidad que

Today as we celebrate Pentecost the Holy Spirit wants to
make us advocates of God’s presence to bring new life to others, especially those who do not know the love of God in
their lives.
When we give to the poor, God indeed pours his love, peace
and joy into our hearts, into our lives and into the hearts of
those who are poor.
Hoy al celebrar Pentecostés el Espíritu Santo quiere hacernos
abogados de la presencia de Dios para llevar nueva vida a los
demás, especialmente a los que no conocen el amor de Dios en
sus vidas.
Cuando damos a los pobres, Dios derrama su amor, paz y alegría en nuestros corazones, en nuestras vidas y en los corazones
de los pobres.
