Dear parishioners and friends:

PALM SUNDAY

MAKE THIS A HOLY WEEK One of the many moving experiences of my

pilgrimage to the Holy Land a few years ago was to stand on the Mount of Olives and overlook the city of Jerusalem. I could not help but think that this is where Our Lord stood as he entered the city on Palm Sunday with shouts of Hosanna. Our Jewish guide explained to our group the word that Jesus would have heard in Hebrew was: Hoshiyana (pronounced Hoshi-Ya-Na). Mistakenly, I always thought an accurate translation of Hosanna would be the English word “alleluia,” a word of praise or exaltation. An ancient equivalent to the Eagles Super Bowl Parade. But our Jewish guide told us that Hoshiyana is more of a plea. It is a cry for help. An accurate translation is: Save Us, Please. That makes more sense to me. As Jesus is coming into Jerusalem and the word has spread of his healings and teachings and that He may be the long-awaited Messiah, they are not patting him on the back and shouting hooray. The people are pleading for help. “Save us please!” “Jesus, Save us!” Of course, we know that Jesus does save us. Not by an army of strength but by the suffering and death that awaits our Lord at the end of this Holy Week. We all need the Savior.

Holy Week has a way of sneaking up on us. If you do not regularly attend Mass with us I am glad you are here today, on Palm Sunday, and hope you feel welcome and come back because we need you. If you have not gone to the Sacrament of Reconciliation during Lent please try to go to Confession this week. The best way to prepare for the Easter celebration next weekend is to attend our Holy Week Triduum services on Holy Thursday, Good Friday, and at the Easter Vigil or Easter Sunday. Have a Blessed Holy Week. Remember to pray: Hoshiyana: Jesus, Save us Please!

God Bless you and your family, Father Vince

Queridos feligreses y amigos:

DOMINGO DE RAMOS HAZ ESTA SEMANA SANTA

Una de las muchas experiencias conmovedoras de mi peregrinación a Tierra Santa hace unos años fue pararme en el Monte de los Olivos y pasar a lo alto la ciudad de Jerusalén. No pude evitar pensar que allí es donde estaba Nuestro Señor cuando ingresó a la ciudad el Domingo de Ramos con gritos de Hosanna. Nuestro guía judío explicó a al grupo que la palabra que Jesús habría escuchado en hebreo era: Hoshiyana (pronunciado Hoshi-Ya-Na). Erróneamente, siempre pensé que una traducción exacta de Hosanna sería la palabra en inglés "aleluya", una palabra de alabanza o exaltación. Un antiguo equivalente al Desfile del Super Bowl de los Águilas. Pero nuestro guía judío nos dijo que Hoshiyana es más una súplica. Es un grito de ayuda. Una traducción exacta es: Sálvanos, por favor. Eso tiene más sentido para mí. Cuando Jesús viene a Jerusalén y la palabra se ha extendido de sus sanidad y enseñanzas, y de que puede ser el Mesías tan esperadamente, no le están dando palmaditas en la espalda y gritando ¡hurra! La gente está pidiendo ayuda. "¡Sálvanos por favor!" "¡Jesús, sálvanos!" Por supuesto, sabemos que Jesús sí nos salva. No con un ejército de fuerza, sino por el sufrimiento y la muerte que espera a nuestro Señor al final de esta Semana Santa. Todos necesitamos al Salvador. La Semana Santa tiene una manera de acercarse furtivamente a nosotros. Si no asiste regularmente a la Misa con nosotros, me alegra que esté aquí hoy, en el Domingo de Ramos, y espero que se sienta bienvenido y regrese porque lo necesitamos. Si no ha asistido al Sacramento de la Reconciliación durante la Cuaresma, intente confesarse esta semana. La mejor manera de prepararse para la celebración de la Pascua el próximo fin de semana es asistir a nuestros servicios del Triduo de la Semana Santa el Jueves Santo, el Viernes Santo y la Vigilia Pascual o el Domingo de Pascua. Que tenga una una Semana Santa bendecida. Recuerda orar: Hoshiyana: Jesús, sálvanos por favor!

Dios te bendiga a ti y a tu familia, Padre Vicente

Every Thursday the Blessed Sacrament is exposed for adoration and prayer in our parish, from 9:00 a.m. until 6:15 p.m. either in St. Lawrence Church or the Our Lady of Grace Chapel. This is a

wonderful opportunity of grace for you and the parish, but unfortunately, at times the Blessed Sacrament is left

unattended. This is especially so in the late morning and early afternoon time periods. Please consider taking some time during

the day on Thursdays to sit before Our Lord and to offer your love and prayers. Allow the Lord to touch your heart with His

Holy Presence.

OUR LADY OF GRACE WINDOWS INSTALLED IN ST. LUKE CHURCH

I am very pleased to announce that the installation of the New Testament Windows from Our Lady of Grace Church have been installed into St. Luke Church. This both enhances the beauty of

St. Luke and keeps alive the memory of Our Lady of Grace Church. As you look at the windows, think and pray for the thousands of people who also gazed upon those windows for

many years. Yes, Our Lady of Grace lives, and our parish of Our Lady of Guadalupe continues to grow as one family of

faith. One Faith, One Family, One Parish! Our Lady of Grace, St. Luke, St. Lawrence, and Our Lady of

Guadalupe, pray for us. Amen.
