THIS WEEK

at St. Bartholomew

THE WATERS OF BAPTISMWhen new sod is put in, it needs constant saturation

with water. Landscapers say that this “knits” the sod to the soil. The same when a branch is grafted onto a tree: the poultice that joins them at the splice must be kept wet at all times. Water is the stuff that binds the very cells of our bodies together. No wonder religions throughout all times and cultures have used it so prominently. When Jesus stepped into the Jordan for baptism, he “knit” himself to what had come before him. By going to the Jordan, he made himself one with the people of Israel who had crossed it into their Promised Land. With John the Baptist, Christ wove himself into the prophetic tradition that heralded the coming reign of God. He had become fully human in the waters of Mary’s womb, and by partaking in the rite of the baptism of repentance, Jesus identified himself with our sinful, frail humanity. It is through the waters of baptism that Christ continues to graft new members onto his Body, the Church; through these waters we are cleansed from sin and filled with the promise of grace, given our destiny for eternal life. For us, as for Jesus, it is also the waters of baptism that inaugurate our mission to proclaim the Good News. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

11 Janvier, 2015 - Le Baptême du Seigneur - Année B Nan dlo batèm

Lè nou plante yon nouvo gazon, li bezwen anpil dlo chita landan l tout tan. Moun ki kon fè travay sa a di nou ke se konsa chak ti branch gazon vin tise nan tè a. Se menm jan an tou yon branch grefe kò l sou yon pye bwa: kote rankont lan fèt la dwe rete mouye tout tan. Dlo se eleman ki mare tout selil nan kò nou ansanm. Se kapab pou sa ke nan tout kilti epi nan anpil kwayans nou sèvi avèk dlo konsa. Lè Jezi te mete pye l nan larivyè Jouden an pou Jan batize l, li “uni” tèt li a tout sa ki te vini avan li yo. Lè li travèse sou lòt bò larivyè Jouden an, li fè yon sèl ak pèp Izrayèl la ki te janbe l tou pou ale nan tè pwomiz la. Avèk Jan Batis, Kris la vin pi pwòch nou ankò. Li te vin moun tankou nou nan dlo ki nan vant Mari a, avèk lè li te partisipe nan rit batèm nan, Jezi idantifye tèt li ak peche nou yo epi avèk feblès nou yo. Se nan dlo batèm nan ke Kris la ap kontinye grèfe nouvo manm sou li, a travè Legliz la; nan dlo sa a l’ap pwòpte nou soti nan peche ak konble nou ak pwomès favè Bondye a, e kondwi nou nan lavi ki pap janm fini an. Pou nou menm, kòm pou Jezi, se nan dlo batèm ke nou kòmanse misyon nou antan ke patizan Bondye kap anonse Bòn Nouvèl la tout kote nou pase.

El Bautismo del Señor - 11 de Enero de 2015 - Año B

Valor Espiritual de la Santa MisaComo Cristianos debemos saber, que la Santa Misa es el más Sagrado acto de religión: No se puede hacer nanda más glorioso para Dios, nada más favorecedor para nuestra Alma, que el piadoso Acto de asistir a la Santa Misa lo más frecuente que podamos.

Tenemos fechas disponibles en 2015 para la Misa de las 5 pm para usted y sus seres queridos vivos o difuntos.

Las Aguas BautismalesCuando se planta un césped nuevo, debe regarse

constantemente. Los jardineros dicen que esto “teje” el césped al suelo. Lo mismo sucede cuando se injerta una rama a un árbol: el cataplasma que los une debe estar húmedo en todo momento. El agua es lo que mantiene unidas a las células de nuestro cuerpo. Con razón las religiones de todas las épocas y culturas han usado tanto este símbolo. Cuando Jesús se sumerge en el Jordán para ser bautizado, se “teje” a todo aquello que lo precedía. Al sumergirse en el Jordán, se hizo uno con el pueblo de Israel que había cruzado el río para llegar a su Tierra Prometida. Junto a Juan Bautista, Cristo se tejió a la tradición profética que presagiaba la venida del Reino de Dios. Jesús se había convertido plenamente en humano en las aguas del vientre de María y al participar del rito del Bautismo del arrepentimiento, se sintió identificado con nuestra frágil y pecaminosa humanidad. Por las aguas del Bautismo Cristo continúa injertando nuevos miembros a su Cuerpo, la Iglesia; gracias a nuestro destino de vida eterna, por estas aguas somos limpiados del pecado y recibimos la promesa de la gracia. Para nosotros, como para Jesús, las aguas bautismales también inauguran nuestra misión de proclamar la Buena Nueva.

MADRE DE NUESTRA ALEGRÍAMaría, Tú que velas junto a mí, y ves el fuego de mi inquietud. María, Madre, enséñame a vivir con ritmo alegre de juventud. Ven y danos la alegría que nace de la fe y del amor,el gozo de las almas que confían en medio del esfuerzo y el dolor. ~Amen
