PASTOR’S NOTES

2 | April 7, 2019

FIND SERENITY IN JESUS Isaiah 43:16-21 Philippians 3:8-14 John 8:1-11 It is a scene we have become all too familiar with — people los-ing everything because of their addiction to drugs. At first, they were introduced to it by friends. At the moment, they liked the feeling of euphoria it gave them. They enjoyed being liberated from their fears and inhibitions. Before long, they are doing it not for fun but to get through the day. It becomes more than a habit. It becomes a driving need more important than anything else. They are unable to work and lose their livelihood and homes. Eventually, they are abandoned by their family and friends and have nowhere else to go except the streets. Although the drugs promised to bring them friend-ships, love, and inner peace, they are left with only loneliness, rejection, and destitution. It’s also a story that played itself in this Sunday’s Gospel. The young woman wanted nothing more than love and attention. She reveled in the gifts her lover gave her and thrilled to hear him say how beautiful she was. It felt good to be noticed, appreciat-ed, and wanted. Though she knew it was wrong to commit adul-tery and that the consequences of being caught were severe, she wanted to please her lover. We all know what happens next. She is caught and dragged to the feet of Jesus. Her lover abandons her. By giving herself to him, she hoped to find love and acceptance. However, all she received was rejection, scorn, and condemnation. Looking for love, she chose sin and found nothing but rejection. In contrast, it is at the feet of Jesus that this woman finds the love and mercy her heart desperately longed for. Jesus picks her up from the dirt, wipes away her tears, and sends her home with the warning, “Go and sin no more.” What she was unable to find by sinning she found in Jesus, who restored her dignity and af-firmed her unique value as a daughter of God. This story does not just take place on the streets of our cities or on the streets of Jerusalem. It also takes place in our lives, in our homes, and in our hearts. We may not be addicted to drugs and alcohol. We may not be committing adultery. However, in many ways, both large and small, we choose sin over God’s love. We fall prey to the false promises of love, pleasure, and inner peace that sin offers us. And in the process, we lose touch with our heavenly Father who is the source of all love. However, that does not need to be the end of the story. We can always turn to Jesus to find forgiveness. Consider the woman in the Gospel. Isn’t it ironic that if she had never been caught sinning, she might never have met Jesus? Without being dragged to him by the scribes and Pharisees, she would never have experienced how gentle and merciful he was. Because of her weakness, she came to know Jesus more per-

sonally than would otherwise be possible. The same is true for us. It is not until we come to Jesus on our knees, weeping over our sins and seeking relief from our burden of guilt, that we come to know in a personal, heartfelt way just how merciful and loving he is. If we can come to Jesus with hu-mility and sorrow, then our weakness will bring us closer to him. Furthermore, we will come to understand that the only way to find the love and serenity we desire in the depths of our being is in the warm embrace of our heavenly Father.

Douglas Sousa, S.T.L.

PRAYER Lord,

We seek peace and love in so many dark places.

We seek them apart from You and lose ourselves in the process.

We find nothing but rejection, scorn, and condemnation.

May we turn to You when we are lonely and seek You out when we are sad,

turning our mourning into rejoicing.

Lead us to the peace and love we long for.

And when we find it, help us to share it with others.

Through Christ our Lord, Amen.

NOTAS DEL PASTOR

St Peter the Apostle | 3

NUEVOS COMIENZOS La próxima semana celebraremos la pasión, muerte y resurrec-ción del Señor. La Fiesta de la Resurrección significa que somos una nueva creación de Dios en nuestro propio lugar y tiempo; compartimos la vida de Cristo Resucitado. Sabemos que tene-mos una responsabilidad con el mundo alrededor de nosotros para consolar, reconciliar y llevarlo hacia la justicia y la paz. La lectura de Isaías que comienza las lecturas de hoy fue escri-ta cerca del año 550 a.E.C. durante el exilio de Judá en Babilo-nia. Está llena de palabras de consuelo y tristeza necesitadas por un pueblo que ya había perdido su existencia como nación y también había abandonado a su Dios. Por medio del destierro, Yavé permitió que Judá sufriera las consecuencias de su propia infidelidad. Pero ahora, la Palabra de Dios, promulgada por Isaías, le da esperanza. Ciro el Rey de los Persas ha comenzado sus campañas en contra de Babilonia. Judá será liberado en veinte años. El profeta nos dice que este nuevo movimiento de Dios hacia la tierra y la liberación eclipsará el primer Éxodo. Ese santo e histó-rico evento será ahora sólo una muestra de lo que Yavé ahora hará para el beneficio de Israel. Los desterrados saldrán de Ba-bilonia y, en camino dejarán sus tierras nuevamente fértiles y sus ríos con agua. Yavé creará un mundo nuevo para ellos. En la segunda lectura, San Pablo nos dice cómo podemos llegar a ser la nueva creación que debemos ser en Cristo. Enseña cómo, poco a poco, va llegando a la madurez de su identidad con Cristo. San Pablo vislumbra el fin de su lucha y carrera y la posibilidad de ganarla y subir al podio para recibir el premio final que un ganador merece. El compete, no con otros, sino con sus actitudes anteriores cuando pensaba que él mismo podía salvarse por medio de su adherencia a la ley y al rito. Para de-scribir sus acciones anteriores, utiliza una palabra griega fuerte que quiere decir basura o excremento. Para él, la salvación es un don o gracia que Dios nos da por habernos identificado con la humanidad en Cristo. En Jesús llegamos a ser una nueva creación. El Evangelio de hoy narra la historia de un encuentro entre Jesús y una mujer juzgada y condenada por los abogados y líderes en Jerusalén. La historia posiblemente no estaba en la versión orginal del Evangelio según Juan y es cierto que cabe mejor entre las historias de Lucas sobre el ministerio de Jesús en el templo. Contiene mucho del sentimiento de Lucas sobre el arrepentimiento y la reconciliación, tendiendo a remover el juicio y la condena de las actitudes de los cristianos. Sin embargo, este domingo la historia nos dice cómo actuar según la identidad que compartimos con Dios en Cristo. Es una narración que va muy bien con el fin de la temporada cuaresmal y nuestro intento de ser como Cristo y dejar de juzgar a los demás en el mundo. Claramente no tenemos ni el derecho ni el deber de juzgar a nadie. La narración nos presenta con la enseñanza de Jesús, no sólo en la unión de la gracia de Dios, sino en la solidaridad del pe-

cado. Cualquier reconciliación cuaresmal lograda debe ser más que un evento vertical entre nosotros y un Dios supuestamente arriba. El Dios de los cristianos es uno que ya comparte nuestra humanidad y es presente en la relación con el vecino que vive al lado. Condenar no es una actividad cristiana. Jesús no condena; confronta dos realidades. Reta al grupo que provoca el miedo y que parece querer matar. También sorprende a una mujer acusada con el perdón y la oportunidad de escoger un modo alterno de vivir. ¿Entendemos nuestro proceso común de conversión? No esta-mos ni cerca de ser o vivir como Jesucristo. Quedamos infini-tamente distante del amor con que Dios nos ama. Llegamos a la misa, pero ¿qué nos prohibe comulgar cuando la comunión sólo existe para los pecadores? Después de todo, la misa es eu-caristía, la palabra griega que quiere decir “agradecimiento”, y sólo nosotros los pecadores hemos recibido el perdón que nos provoca esta profunda gratitud. ¿Qué diría Cristo si nos encontrara en la separación y confusión de la mujer en la historia? ¿Por qué no nos ubicamos en la nar-ración evangélica para ver lo que pasaría?

FIFTH SUNDAY OF LENT

6 | April 7, 2019

SACRAMENTS INFANT BAPTISM The sacrament of baptism for infants is celebrated during Mass. If you are inter-ested in having your child baptized, please make contact Kristine Almada at 760.689.6208 or kalmada@stpeter-fallbrook.org BAUTIZOS Se celebran una vez por mes a las 12PM. Si están interesados en bautizar a su hijo/a, favor de pasar a la oficina parroquial para obtener una forma de registro. RCIA: RITE OF CHRISTIAN INITIATION (How Do I Become A Catholic?) If you are interested in finding out more about the Catholic faith, or are missing some of your sacraments please contact Kristine Almada at 760.689.6208 or kalmada@stpeter-fallbrook.org CONFIRMATION Baptism, the Eucharist, and the sacra-ment of Confirmation together make up the “Sacraments of Christian Initia-tion”. The reception of the Sacrament of Confirmation is necessary for the com-pletion of baptismal grace. The mini-mum age for the reception of the Sacra-ment of Confirmation is 15 for those already baptized. The policy of the par-ish is to accept candidates for Confirma-tion who are in the 9th grade and up to 11th grade. Those who are 18 years of age or above are to be enrolled in the adult Confirmation program. The two-year preparation process aims to lead the candidate to a more intimate union with Jesus Christ and more lively familiarity with the Holy Spirit – his ac-tions, his gifts and his biddings – in or-der to be more capable of assuming the apostolic responsibilities of Christian life. Candidates are expected to attend scheduled faith formation sessions, re-treats, service outreach and attend Mass regularly as they prepare their hearts to become fully initiated into the Catholic Church. For information contact Toney Renteria at 760.689.6209

PRAYER GROUP The clergy needs our prayers as much as we need theirs. Would you like to be part of a new Ministry? The Seven Sisters Apostolate is a call to strength-en the Church by ensuring that a Holy Hour is prayed each day of the week for the sole intention of a specific priest or bishop—a “holy wasting” (cf. Mt. 26:10) or lavishing of prayer for his deeper conformity to Christ. We are looking for 6 women to be part of a prayer group for our Pastor. Please email Shirley Chavez at 7SistersApostolateFallbrook@gmail.com for more information. Thanks for your prayerful consideration.

PALM SUNDAY Domingo de Ramos As a reminder, Palm Sunday begins outside in St. Peter's Square. This year, we will be gathering outside and the Church will remain closed until Mass begins except for those who are psychically unable to process in. Para recordarles, que el Domingo de Ramos comenzara afuera en la Plaza de San Pedro. Este año, nos reuniremos afuera y la Iglesia permanecerá cer-rada hasta que comience la misa, excepto para aquellos que tienen discapac-idades físicas.
