LETTER FROM OUR PASTOR Dear Parishioners,

When St John wrote his gospel, the first persecutions had already

broken out. The Roman Emperors had already begun their policy

of executing Christians for treason, because Christians refused to

worship the Roman gods. One of John's great themes is the power

of the Church to grow and to endure even through difficult times,

even through violent persecutions. This comes out in the Gospel

passage today in the image of a fishing net full of fish - an analogy

for the Church that appears more than once in the Gospels. The

Apostles are feeling stir-crazy in these days after the Resurrection,

before receiving the Holy Spirit. They decide to go fishing. Then

the Lord appears to them and engineers a miraculous catch of fish,

just as he had done three years earlier. When Peter brings the

catch to shore, St John makes mention of a curious detail: the net

was "full of 153 large fish. Even though there were so many, the

net was not torn." Peter brought the overstuffed net onto the

shore safely, almost miraculously - so many large fish should have

torn that net, but they didn't.

The net is the Church. It is filled with believers whom Christ

gathers out of the ocean of time and history through the ministry

of Peter and his successors, the popes. And Peter is the one who

hauls this supernatural community onto the shores of eternity at

the end of time, where they will all feast with the Lord. In spite of

sufferings, scandals and sins, in spite of obstacles, challenges and

persecutions, Christ's Church will continue to grow and expand

under the ministry of Peter, and it will stay intact until it is

brought safely home to heaven - Peter's net will not tear.

Our culture is so focused on current events and headlines, that we

can easily lose sight of this perspective. But a brief glance at

history can remedy that. The mere fact of the Church's endurance

through 20 centuries, maintaining the same doctrine, forms of

worship (seven sacraments), and the same structure--bishops

united under the pope's leadership to serve believers- is, without

a doubt, miraculous. It only becomes more amazing when we take

a look at the actual obstacles and enemies it had to overcome.

The Roman Empire tried to stamp out Christianity for 300 years.

That Empire is gone, the Church remains. In the Middle Ages, the

Islamic Empire extended over even more territory than Rome had,

and conquered many Christian lands. It invaded Europe and tried

to do away with the Church. That Empire fell, but the Church

remains. In the 16th century, most of northern Europe rebelled

against the Catholic Church in what was called the Protestant

Reformation. In some countries, being Catholic became a capital

punishment. Yet today, the Catholic Church remains the largest

Christian community, and in those countries, the Church remains.

In the 17th century a new Islamic Empire, that of the Turks, tried

again to overrun Christian civilization. That Empire is gone, the

Church remains. In the 18th century, the French Revolution tried

to eradicate the Church in France, martyring hundreds, if not

thousands. The Revolution passed, the Church endured. In the 19th

century, Napoleon conquered all of continental Europe, usurped

the Church hierarchy, and imprisoned two popes in efforts to take

over the Catholic Church. His Empire passed away; the Church

remains. In the 20th century, Soviet Communism tried to wipe out

the Catholic Church in all of its territories, as did the German

Nazis, and in Mexico in the 1920’s. Those regimes are gone, the

Church remains. Today the saga continues, in Africa, the Middle

East, China, and Vietnam...The Church has endured, and it will

continue to endure, just as Christ promised. Peter will bring the

net to shore, overstuffed with large fishes, and the net will not be

torn.

May God bless you. Fr. Dan

THIRD SUNDAY OF EASTER SUNDAY, MAY 5, 2019 TERCER DOMINGO DE PASCUA DOMINGO 5 DE MAYO DEL 2019

CARTA DE NUESTRO PÁRROCO Queridos Feligreses: Cuando San Juan escribió su evangelio, las primeras persecuciones habían ya explotado. Los Emperadores romanos habían comenzado ya su política de ejecución de los cristianos por traición, porque los cristianos se negaban a adorar a los dioses romanos. Uno de los grandes temas de Juan es el poder de la iglesia de crecer y a soportar incluso a través de tiempos difíciles, incluso a través de violentas persecuciones. Esto sale en el pasaje del Evangelio de hoy en la imagen de una red llena de peces - una analogía de la iglesia que aparece más de una vez en los Evangelios de pesca. Los apóstoles se sienten volver locos en estos días después de la resurrección, antes de recibir el Espíritu Santo. Deciden ir a pescar. Entonces el Señor se les aparece y acelera una milagrosa pesca de peces, tal como lo había hecho tres años antes. Cuando Pedro trae la pesca a la orilla, San Juan hace mención de un detalle curioso: la red estaba "llena con 153 peces grandes. A pesar de que había tantos, la red no se rompió." Pedro trajo la red sobrecargada a tierra con seguridad, casi milagrosamente - tantos peces grandes pudieron haber rasgado la red, pero no. No le paso nada. La red es la iglesia. Está llena de creyentes que recoge de Cristo en el océano del tiempo y de la historia a través del Ministerio de Pedro y sus sucesores, los papas. Y Pedro es el que lanza esta comunidad sobrenatural en las orillas de la eternidad al final de los tiempos, donde se vuelve todo un festín con el Señor. A pesar de los sufrimientos, los escándalos y pecados, a pesar de los obstáculos, dificultades y persecuciones, la iglesia de Cristo continuará creciendo y expandiéndose en el Ministerio de Pedro, y permanecerá intacta hasta que sea traída con seguridad al cielo – la red de Pedro no se rompe. Nuestra cultura esta tan enfocada en los eventos actuales, que fácilmente podemos perder de vista esta perspectiva. Pero un breve vistazo a la historia lo puede solucionar todo. El mero hecho de la resistencia de la iglesia a través de 20 siglos, manteniendo la misma doctrina, y formas de adoración (siete sacramentos) manteniendo la misma doctrina, formas de adoración (siete sacramentos) y la misma estructura –los obispos se unieron bajo el liderazgo del Papa para servir a los creyentes - es, sin duda, milagroso. Resulta más sorprendente cuando echamos un vistazo a los obstáculos reales y enemigos tuvo que superar. El imperio romano intentó erradicar el cristianismo durante 300 años. Ese Imperio se ha ido, y la Iglesia sigue. En la edad media, el imperio islámico se extendió sobre más territorio que lo que tenía Roma y conquistó muchas tierras cristianas. Invadieron Europa y trató de acabar con la iglesia. Ese imperio cayó, pero la iglesia permanece. En el siglo XVI, la mayor parte del norte de Europa se rebeló contra la iglesia católica en lo que se llamó la reforma protestante. En algunos países, ser católico se convirtió en una pena de muerte. Sin embargo hoy en día, la iglesia católica sigue siendo la más grande comunidad cristiana, y en esos países, sigue siendo la iglesia. En el siglo XVII un nuevo imperio islámico, el de los turcos, trató otra vez de doblegar la civilización cristiana. Ese Imperio se ha ido, y la iglesia sigue estando. En el siglo 18 la revolución francesa intentó erradicar la iglesia en Francia, y martirizo a

cientos, si no miles. Pasó la revolución, la iglesia sufrió. En el siglo XIX, Napoleón conquistó todo Europa continental, había usurpado la jerarquía de la iglesia y encarcelado a dos papas haciendo esfuerzos para hacerse cargo de la iglesia católica. Su imperio fallo; la iglesia se queda. En el siglo XX, el comunismo soviético intentó acabar con la iglesia católica en todos sus territorios, como lo hicieron los Nazis alemanes y en México en la década de 1920. Esos regímenes se han ido, y la Iglesia sigue siendo. Hoy en día la saga continúa, en África, Medio Oriente, China y Vietnam... La iglesia ha sufrido y seguirá aguantando, como Cristo lo prometió. Pedro traerá la red a la orilla, sobrecargada con peces grandes, y la red no se desgarrará. Que Dios los bendiga. Padre Dan.

3er domingo de Pascua Que podamos discernir cómo Dios nos está llamando a usar

todos nuestros dones.

"Pedro estaba angustiado porque Jesús le había dicho por

tercera vez "¿Me amas?" y él le dijo:"Señor, tú lo sabes todo;

sabes que te amo". Jesús le dijo:" Apacienta a mis ovejas". (Juan

21:17)

Todos nosotros tenemos el desafío de mostrar nuestro amor por

Jesús y por los demás. Percibe cómo Dios te está llamando a

usar tu tiempo en la oración, tu talento en obras caritativas y tu

tesoro para ayudar a los necesitados. Recuerda que dar es un

acto de adoración y ayuda a avanzar en la misión de nuestra

parroquia y de la Iglesia en general.

confirmed Catholic, over 18 years of age and either unmarried or in a

Training For New and Current lectors

Coming Soon!!!

Have you thought to become a Lector? Lectors are responsible for the

proclamation of the Word of God during liturgical celebrations in the

church. They are called to help make the Word of God come alive for

the assembled people in the church. All who are interested in this

liturgical ministry must have a deep and prayerful relationship to the

Word of God, an ability to speak and project clearly, and a willingness

to commit their time to preparation of the readings they are assigned.

If this is for you, we will have a lectors orientation training coming soon. All current Lectors and those that are inquiring must attend. “Christ is present in the liturgy through the Eucharist, the

priest, and the assembly that prays and sings. He is also present in the

Word since it is he himself who speaks when the Holy Scriptures are

read in the Church.” (CCC 1088 & SC 7)For information and to order a

Lector Workbook please contact Deacon Dan 713-468-9555 or Joel
