Fifth Sunday of Easter ~ April 29, 2018 Today’s Readings

LIVING BRANCHES

The Gospel and second reading for this Fifth Sunday of Easter emphasize the need for us to remain in Christ, and he in us. This shared life finds expression in the image of the one vine and many branches. We become living branches of the vine, members of the Body of Christ through baptism, Eucharist, and confirmation, sacraments of sharing God’s own life. The First Letter of John describes the fruit of this vine as active love of neighbor: “And his commandment is this: we should believe . . . and love one another” (1 John 3:23).

Our first reading from Acts shows us an example of someone who shares in Christ’s life in the person of Saint Paul. Paul’s fearless witness, even at the risk of his life, is proof to everyone that the risen Lord’s Spirit truly fills him with life and is bearing fruit in him.

SARMIENTOS VIVOS

El Evangelio y la segunda lectura para este Quinto Domingo de Pascua hacen hincapié en la necesidad de que permanezcamos en Cristo y él permanecerá en nosotros. Esta vida compartida está representada en la imagen de la vid que tiene muchos sarmientos. Nos convertimos en sarmientos vivos de la vid, en miembros del Cuerpo de Cristo por el Bautismo, la Eucaristía y la Confirmación, por los sacramentos que nos hacen compartir la vida de Dios. La primera carta del apóstol san Juan describe el fruto de esta vid como el amor activo al prójimo: “Y este es su mandamiento: que creamos . . . y que nos amemos unos a otros” (1 Juan 3:23).

En la primera lectura de los Hechos contamos con un ejemplo de una persona que participa de la vida de Cristo en la persona de san Pablo. El audaz testimonio de Pablo, incluso a riesgo de perder su propia vida, es prueba para todos de que el Espíritu del Señor resucitado verdaderamente lo llena de vida y da fruto en él. Copyright © J.

A WORD FROM FR. RAY

UNA PALABRA DEL PADRE RAY

I just got back from our annual Confirmation Retreat. Again, many thanks go to the team for another wonderful retreat. Our children had a chance to bond with one another, and they had some deep Spiritual experiences through the process of the weekend. The weather was perfect at Big Bear, California, and it was especially nice being in the mountains in the fresh cool air. We also got to observe a Bald Eagle with chicks in a nest….awesome. The energy at the retreat never ceased to peak, and we celebrated a wonderful Sunday Liturgy. The children were given the opportunity to reflect on the reality that there are others much like themselves that have similar journeys and often times painful ones. Masks were torn away during the talks opening avenues of vulnerability to the pain and suffering of fitting into various social norms and family dynamics that are often times dysfunctional. The dialogues that take place are sincere and allow each student an opportunity to be absorbed in the reflection of their peers and journey more intimately into the pain of others, as Christ often absorbed the pain and suffering of those he ministered to. It’s always a treasure to witness our children having a deeper sense of the Holy Spirit in these exercises for a deeper understanding of compassion and ministering to one another.

I’d also like to thank our Confirmation Director Joyce and her team and Beth our Formation Director for all their preparation and love that went into the retreat. We’ll be looking forward to witnessing their big day when the Bishop comes to confer the Sacrament of Confirmation on the 6th of May at the 3:30 pm Mass. Fr. Ray

Acabo de regresar de nuestro Retiro anual de Confirmación. De nuevo, muchas gracias al equipo por otro maravilloso retiro. Nuestros jóvenes tuvieron la oportunidad de conocerse entre ellos, tuvieron experiencias espirituales profundas durante el proceso del fin de semana. El clima estuvo perfecto en Big Bear, California, y fue especialmente agradable estar en las montañas en el aire fresco y refrescante. También pudimos observar un Águila Calva con polluelos en su nido....impresionante. La energía en el retiro no ceso de aumentar, celebramos una maravillosa Liturgia Dominical. Los jóvenes tuvieron la oportunidad de reflexionar sobre la realidad de que hay otros jóvenes como ellos que tienen viajes similares y muchas veces muy dolorosos. Las máscaras fueron arrancadas durante las conversaciones, abriendo caminos de vulnerabilidad ante el dolor y el sufrimiento de encajar en diversas normas sociales y dinámicas familiares que muchas veces son disfuncionales. Los diálogos que se llevaron a cabo fueron sinceros y se le dio a cada estudiante la oportunidad de absorberse en el reflejo de sus compañeros y caminar más íntimamente en el dolor de los demás, como Cristo a menudo absorbió el dolor y el sufrimiento de aquellos a quienes ministraba. Siempre es un tesoro presenciar que nuestros jóvenes tengan un sentido más profundo del Espíritu Santo en estos ejercicios para comprender más profundamente la compasión y ministrarse unos a otros.

Me gustaría agradecer a nuestra Directora de Confirmación Joyce y su equipo, también a Beth, nuestra Directora de Formación de Fe, por toda la preparación y el amor que pusieron en el retiro. Estaremos ansiosos de presenciar su gran día cuando el Obispo llegue a conferir el Sacramento de la Confirmación el 6 de Mayo en la Misa de las 3:30 pm. Padre Ray

Let us love not in word or speech

but in deed and truth. -- 1 John 3:18

LITURGY CORNER ESQUINA LITURGICA “I am the vine, you are the branches. Whoever

remains in me and I in him will bear much fruit, because without me you can do nothing.” (John 15:5 New American Bible) As we continue to walk together as brother and sisters, the image of the vine and the branches is a powerful one in today’s Gospel.

Having been born in New York City and raised in Upstate New York, I’ve learned to appreciate living in the city and also growing up in the North Country. In the summers, we would go to the city and take in the sites and surround ourselves with the hustle and bustle of city living. We would fill the car and stock up on supplies we could not get in the country. If you’ve been to New York City, it’s hard to describe the smell and the feel of a subway tunnel or platform in the middle of rush hour in the height of summer. Let’s just say it’s not something you’ll ever forget. With the crowded streets and the wonder of Broadway, your senses are literally inundated with activity, stimulation, and noise. After our visit we would leave it all behind and go back to the quiet familiarity of being part of a small community and surrounded by nature. At the end of summer, we would eat fresh vegetables from the ground, drink clean crisp water and breathe fresh unpolluted air. It was good to be home.

Every week we would do something similar. We leave the church and our work begins again. We drive our kids to school and running to endless activities. We go back to the work place, fill ourselves with fast food and hardly spend time with our families. By the end of the week, we are tired, grumpy and ready to kick off our shoes. As we collapse on to the couch, we pray that Monday will not come too soon but it always does.

Here at Christ the King, it is our hope that our beautiful church and community becomes for all of us the vine that connects us to the Father. A place where we bring our tired bodies and stressed filled minds to the Altar and become renewed by the word of God and fed by body and blood of Christ. We must reconnect to the vine that is Jesus Christ, who gives us his Spirit and connects us to God the Father. It is also our hope that we as the body of Christ, help one another to be renewed. After not seeing each other for a week let us remember to take the time to say hello to the people around us and not be afraid to share in each other stories. A good reflection is Ephesians chapter 4 from which I quote, “Rather, living the truth in love, we should grow in every way into him who is the head, Christ, from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, with the proper functioning of each part, brings about the body’s growth and builds itself up in love.” (Ephesians 4: 15-16 NAB) Have a blessed week and we look forward to seeing you next Saturday or Sunday. Please keep our First Communion Kids in your prayers and pray that they continue to join us at the table of the Lord with their families.

"Yo soy la vid, y ustedes los sarmientos; el que permanece en mí y yo en ese da fruto abundante, porque sin nada pueden hacer. "(Juan 15: 5) Mientras más seguimos caminando juntos como hermanos, más poderosa me parece la imagen de la vid y los sarmientos del Evangelio de hoy.

Habiendo nacido en la ciudad de Nueva York y criada en el norte del estado de Nueva York, aprendí a apreciar la vida en la ciudad y también el haber crecido en el Campo del Norte. En los veranos, íbamos a la ciudad y visitábamos los sitios y nos rodeábamos del ajetreo y el bullicio de la vida de la ciudad. Llenábamos el carro de cosas que no podíamos conseguir en el campo. Si no has estado en la ciudad de Nueva York, es difícil describir el olor y la sensación de un túnel o plataforma del metro en la hora del tráfico en pleno verano. Digamos que no es algo que no es que se puede olvidar. Con las calles llenas de gente y la maravilla de Broadway. Los sentidos literalmente se llenan de actividad, estímulo y ruido. Después de nuestra visita, lo dejamos todo atrás y volvíamos a la tranquila familiaridad de ser parte de una pequeña comunidad y estar rodeados de la naturaleza. Al final del verano, comíamos verduras frescas recién sacada de la tierra, bebíamos agua limpia y fresca, respiramos aire fresco sin contaminación. Era bueno estar en casa.

Cada semana hacíamos algo similar. Hoy en día salimos de la iglesia y nuestro trabajo comienza de nuevo. Llevamos a nuestros hijos a la escuela y hacemos actividades sin fin. Volvemos al lugar de trabajo, nos llenamos de comida rápida y apenas pasamos tiempo con nuestras familias. Al final de la semana, estamos cansados, gruñones y listos para quitarnos los zapatos. Mientras nos colapsamos en el sofá, rezamos para que el Lunes no llegue demasiado pronto, pero el Lunes siempre llega demasiado pronto.

Aquí en Christ The King, esperamos que nuestra hermosa iglesia y comunidad se convierta para todos nosotros en la vid que nos conecta con el Padre. Un lugar donde podamos traemos nuestros cuerpos cansados y mentes llenas de estrés al Altar y nos renovemos por la Palabra de Dios y nos alimentamos con el Cuerpo y la Sangre de Cristo. Debemos volver a conectarnos a la vid que es Jesucristo, quien nos da su Espíritu y nos conecta con Dios Padre. También es nuestra esperanza que nosotros, como el cuerpo de Cristo, nos ayudemos unos a otros a renovarnos. Después de no vernos durante una semana, recordemos tomar el tiempo para saludar a las personas que nos rodean y no tener miedo de compartir historias entre nosotros. Una buena reflexión es el capítulo 4 de Efesios, del cual cito: “Estaremos en la verdad y el amor, e iremos creciendo cada vez más para alcanzar a aquel que es la cabeza, Cristo. El hace que el cuerpo crezca, con una red de articulaciones que le dan armonía y firmeza, tomando en cuenta y valorizando las capacidades de cada uno. Y así el cuerpo se va construyendo en el amor.” (Efesios 4: 15-16) Que tengan una semana bendecida y esperamos verlos el próximo Sábado o Domingo. Por favor, tengan a sus Niños de la Primera Comunión en sus oraciones y oren para que se sigan uniéndose a nosotros en la mesa del Señor junto con sus familias. Ellen

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION In medieval times, one country, Scotland, linked its economy to the liturgy. Four holy days of the church calendar were keyed to the legal year. On these days, rents were due, clergy and servants were paid, and contracts and leases would begin or end. The term days were Pentecost (called Whitsunday), the Feast of Saint Martin on November 11 (Martinmas), the Feast of the Presentation on February 2 (Candlemas), and August 2 (Lammas), a harvest festival. On Lammas day, the first loaf of bread from the summer wheat harvest was given to the village priest. After the Reformation, which swept the Catholic festivals away, the term days were gradually detached from the old feasts. It was only in 1990 that the term days were anchored on the 28th of February, May, August, and November. Today the old Scottish universities are the last hold-outs, still naming their terms or semesters after the old festivals. Scottish students today may not know about the liturgical year, but they still call the fall term Martinmas, and the spring session Candlemas. —Rev. James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE En el año 1674 una argentina, Doña Ana Mattos

de Siqueyras se llevó a su casa una imagen de la Virgen María para hacerle una capillita en sus terrenos a un lado del rió Luján. La imagen era de reputación milagrosa y Doña Ana deseaba tenerla cerquita de su hogar. Al día siguiente la imagen se había regresado a un eremitorio donde la cuidaba un esclavo africano llamado Manuel. Esto le pasó un par de veces hasta que se le ocurrió a Doña Ana llevarse en peregrinación a ambos María y Manuel. Desde entonces en una capilla abierta al público María se quedo sin ningún problema.

Como muchos ricos, Doña Ana quería echarse a Dios en el bolsillo llevándose para si misma la imagen de María. Pero nuestra Señora de Luján tenia otro plan. Ella deseaba estar con el esclavo Manuel y con el pueblo. En fin, Doña Ana se fijó que a Dios y su madre no los controla nadie y nadie los puede hacer su propiedad, a lo contrario, ellos se entregan a los pobres y desamparados.—Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.

WHY IS IT

A man wakes up after sleeping

under an ADVERTISED blanket

on an ADVERTISED mattress

and pulls off ADVERTISED pajamas

bathes in an ADVERTISED shower

shaves with an ADVERTISED razor

brushes his teeth

with ADVERTISED toothpaste

washes with ADVERTISED soap

puts on ADVERTISED clothes

drinks a cup

of ADVERTISED coffee

drives to work

in an ADVERTISED car

and then . . . .

refuses to ADVERTISE

believing it doesn’t pay.

Later if business is poor

he ADVERTISES it for sale.

WHY IS IT?
