PASTOR’S COLUMN

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, All of us long to live forever. There is something in us that refuses to accept that death is our final destiny. The divine spark in us calls us to eternal life. It is constantly reminding us of this. It is the presence of Hope within us. We know, in the midst of all our suffer-ings, that we are not alone, that there is One who saves us.

“Jesus Christ … there is no salvation through anyone else … nor is there any other Name under Heaven given to the human race by which we are to be saved …” Acts

We are filled with joy when we experience God’s presence, because we are called to eternal existence, and one day we will be totally with Him.

“We do know that when it is revealed we shall be like Him … for we shall see Him as He is …” 1John

As we journey through life, let us ask the Lord to allow us to hear His voice, to allow that voice to guide us to ways of eternal life.

“I am the Good Shepherd … and I know mine and mine knew me … they will hear my voice …” John

OUR LADY SCHOOL NEWS My brothers and sisters,

They say that in a leprosarium of the Daughters of Charity, there was an unbelieving doctor, who boasted of his status as an atheist. However, he was devoted to his noble profession, being helpfully at-tentive to all. However, something that disgusted him was to clean the festering sores of the sick. He merely examined and prescribed them. A Sister of Charity, a nurse, was the one who engaged in cleaning them. One day, admiring the tenderness with which the nun cleaned a leper, the doctor passing by her side said, "I would not do that even for a million dollars. " She immediately replied, "Neither would I." This unexpected answer was a point of reflection. And he asked, "Then why do you do it, sister? She said, "Only for the love of God." They say that this was the turning point for him to return to his faith and religious practice. NOT EVERYTHING CAN BE BOUGHT WITH MON-EY.

Blessings, Deacon Carlos

HOW DO I KNOW GOD LOVES ME?

God’s love isn’t earned and can’t be lost. Such an amazing gi almost sounds too good to be true. So, how do we know God’s love is real?

He sent His son to us. “For God so loved the world that he gave his only son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.” John 3:16

His closest friends told us so. St. Paul said, “For I am sure that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor princi-palities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 8:38‐39

He watches over us. “Therefore do not be anxious, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness and all these things shall be yours as well.” Matthew 6:31‐33

LAY DOWN MY LIFE In the Old Testament, God is described many mes as the shepherd of the people of Israel. So when Jesus claims this image of God to describe himself, it is star‐tling even to his disciples. In today’s Gospel, he takes the image one step beyond the Old Testament: as the Good Shepherd, he is to “lay down his life.” This phrase is stated, with slight varia on, five mes in to‐day’s short passage. Jesus is describing the meaning of his life and of his death. With firm roots in the story of Israel and their God, Jesus is now star ng a new chapter. He is helping his disciples make sense of his death on the cross, and to describe how to follow this par cular shepherd. When Jesus lays down his life, he is revealing the infinite love that he and the Father have for the flock. To follow Jesus, to be a part of Jesus’ flock, means par cipa ng in that same sacrificial love. ONE FLOCK Jesus adds another feature to the shepherd image‐ry, which was also disturbing to his disciples. He refers to “other sheep which do not belong to this fold,” who will become part of the same flock. This likely refers to the Gen les, to all peoples beyond Israel. The Shep‐herd extends his flock, but emphasizes that there is s ll only one flock. Jesus spoke forcefully and fre‐quently, especially in the Gospel of John, of the im‐portance of unity among those who follow him. We who follow Jesus are expected to embrace the “other sheep,” to respect and celebrate differences among Chris ans. We are expected to learn from one another. All those things that seem to divide Jesus’s followers in culture, ethnici‐ty, or history of conflict fade in comparison with the deeper unity of the one flock under one Shepherd. Living in unity is essen al for us to be faithful and credible witnesses of Christ to the world. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc

DAR LA VIDA En el An guo Testamento, muchas veces Dios es descrito como el pastor del pueblo de Israel. Así cuan‐do Jesús invoca esta imagen de Dios para describirse así mismo, sorprende aún a sus propios discípulos. En el Evangelio de hoy, él toma esta imagen un paso ade‐lante del An guo Testamento, como el Buen Pastor, él pastor “debe dar su vida”. Esta frase se afirma, con algunas variaciones, cinco veces en el corto pasaje de hoy. Jesús está describiendo el significado de su vida y de su muerte. Con firmes raíces en la historia de Israel y su Dios, Jesús está ahora empezando un nuevo capítulo. Él es‐tá ayudando a sus discípulos a darle sen do a su muerte, él está revelando el infinito amor que él y el Padre enen por su rebaño. Para seguir a Jesús, ser una parte del rebaño de Jesús, significa par cipar en el mismo sacrificio de amor. UN REBAÑO Jesús añade otra caracterís ca a la imagen del pas‐tor, la cual también inquietó a sus discípulos. Él se re‐fiere a “otras ovejas que no son de mi rebaño” pero serán una parte del mismo rebaño. Esto probablemen‐te se refiere a los gen les, a otros pueblos más allá de Israel. El Pastor aumenta su rebaño, pero enfa za que solo hay un solo rebaño. Jesús habló con fuerza y fre‐cuentemente, especialmente en el Evangelio de Juan, de la importancia de la unidad de aquellas personas que lo siguen. Nosotros, quienes seguimos a Jesús, debemos de recibir a “las otras ovejas” para respetar y celebrar las

diferencias entre los cris anos. Debemos de aprender del otro, de la otra persona. Todas estas cosas que parecen dividir a los seguidores de Jesús en la cultura, la etnicidad o los conflictos de la historia se desvanecen en compa‐ración con la unidad más profun‐da de un solo rebaño con un solo pastor. Vivir unidos es esencial para que seamos tes gos fieles y creíbles de Cristo en el mundo. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc

COLUMNA DEL PASTOR

QUARTO DOMINGO DE PASCUA PÁGINA 6

Queridos Hermanos y Hermanas en Cristo, Todos añoramos vivir para siempre. Hay algo en nosotros que rechaza la muerte como nuestro destino final. La chispa divina en nosotros nos llama a la vida eterna. Constante-mente nos recuerda esta verdad. Es la presencia de la Esperanza en nosotros. Sabemos que en nuestros sufrimientos, no estamos solos, que hay uno que nos salva.

“Jesucristo … ningún otro puede salvarnos … pues en la tierra no existe, no hay otro Nombre bajo el Cielo dado a la raza humana por el cual

podemos ser salvados…” Hechos

Nos llenamos de gozo cuando experimentamos la presencia de Dios, ya que somos llamados a la existencia eterna y un día estaremos con El para siempre.

“Sabemos que cuando sea revelado seremos como El … porque lo veremos tal cual es …” 1Juan

Al caminar por la vida, pidamos al Señor que nos permita escuchar Su voz, que permi-ta que esa Voz nos guíe por caminos de vida eterna.

“Yo soy el Buen Pastor … y conozco las mías y las mías me conocen … mis ovejas escucharan mi voz …” Juan

Enseñe a los niños gratitud

La gra tud es una de las mayores virtudes de la vida. Enseñar a los niños a reconocer las muchas bendiciones en sus vidas ayuda a enseñarles a tener corazones agra‐decidos. Modelar la gra tud en su hogar puede ayudar a su hijo a aprender qué valorar y por qué estar agradeci‐do, y aprender a evitar las cosas que no son valiosas o dignas de su empo e interés.

PROTEGIENDO LOS NIÑOS

Mis hermanos y mis hermanas,

Dicen que en un leprosario de las Hijas de la Caridad había un medico, descreído que se jactaba de su condición de ateo. Sin embargo, era dedicado a su noble profesión, siendo servicial aten-to con todos. Algo le repugnaba sin embargo: limpiar las llagas purulentas de los enfermos. El se limitaba a examinarlos y recetar-les. Una Hermana de la Caridad, enfermera era la que se dedicaba a limpiarlos. Un buen día, admirando la ternura con que la monjita limpiaba a un leproso que se deshacía, al pasar por su lado le dice "Eso yo no lo haría ni por un millón de dólares" y ella inmediata-mente contesto "Ni yo tampoco" esta respuesta inesperada para el fue su punto de reflexión. Y volvió a preguntarle "¿Y por que lo hace usted hermana? Ella dijo " Únicamente por el amor a Dios" Y dicen que ese fue el punto de partida para el volver a la fe y a la práctica religiosa. NO TODO SE COMPRA CON DINERO.

Bendiciones, Diácono Carlos
