Baptism of the Lord 2

“Pastor’s Weekend Message”

“After the Lord was baptized, the heavens were opened, and the Spirit descended upon him like a dove,

and the voice of the Father thundered: This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased.” Matthew 3:16-17

Today, John the Baptist proclaims, “Behold the Lamb of God,” as Jesus humbly comes to the Jordan to be baptized by John. It is through today’s Sunday liturgy, The Baptism of the Lord, that we learn also a couple of things from John and Jesus: First, we are invited to constantly proclaim the Gospel to all; everywhere and whenever. We are called to be true disciples in pointing out where the Lord is being manifested. For example: keeping notice where God’s presence is seen and where God makes His presence known. This might mean viewing it as “God’s plan, will, mystery, daily miracles and the like,” but over all to believe personally with confidence that we too can say, “Behold the Lamb of God” in the Person of Jesus especially in the Eucharist. Second, today’s liturgy is very sacramental, we dwell in the mystery, given that we recall our own baptismal call and promises to live as disciples of the Lord. As baptized Christians, we have a duty to do the following: (a) Repent and turn away from sins; (b) Believe in the Good News by accepting our call to constant conversion to follow the Lord Jesus through the power of the Holy Spirit and (c) To be a true disciple of the Lord Jesus and carry His message of Salvation. In summary, let us have a personal encounter with the Living God who calls us to a life of holiness. Come to think about it, we at Holy Family now have more of an opportunity to focus on the Spiritual. May we also proclaim, “Behold the Lamb of God” and be for one another true baptized Disciples of Christ. This week let us follow the Lord Jesus more closely and be holy as He is Holy. Blessings in the Lord,

Fr. Juan, Pastor

“Mensaje Pastoral del Parroco” “Inmediatamente después de que Jesús recibió el bautismo, se abrieron los cielos y el Espíritu Santo se poso sobre el en forma de paloma, y resonó la voz del Padre que decía: “Este es mi Hijo amado, en quien he

puesto todo mi amor”. Mateo 3, 16-17 Hoy, Juan el Bautista proclama, “He aquí el

Cordero de Dios,” al momento que Jesús humildemente se acerca para ser bautizado en le Jordán. Es a través de esta liturgia dominical, el Bautismo del Señor, que nosotros aprendimos algunas cosas de Juan y Jesús: Primero, que estamos invitados constantemente ha proclamar el Evangelio a todos, donde sea y cuando sea. Nos llama a ser verdaderos discípulos dándose a conocer donde quiera que el Señor se manifieste. Por ejemplo, reconocer las ocasiones donde su presencia se manifieste, y donde Dios, también hace de su presencia un hecho para ser reconocido. Esto puede significar viéndolo como “el plan de Dios, Su Voluntad, su misterio, sus milagros diarios, etcétera, etcétera, etcétera,” pero, sobre todo creer con confianza que también nosotros podemos decir, “¡He aquí el Cordero de Dios!” en la persona de Jesús, especialmente en la Eucaristía. Segundo, la liturgia de bautismo es sacramental, vivimos en el misterio, dado que nos recuerda nuestro llamado bautismal y sus promesas para vivir como discípulos del Señor. Como Cristianos bautizados, tenemos la obligación de hacer lo siguiente: (a) Arrepentirnos y dejar el pecado; (b) Creer en la Buena Nueva y aceptar el llamado constante a la conversión de seguir al Señor Jesús por medio del poder del Espíritu Santo y (c) Ser un verdadero discípulo del Señor Jesús, llevando su mensaje de salvación. En una palabra, tener un encuentro con Dios Viviente quien nos llama a vivir una vida de Santidad. De hecho, al pensarlo bien, nosotros en la Sagrada Familia, tenemos ahora la oportunidad de enfocarnos en lo Espiritual. Que nosotros pues también, proclamemos, “¡He aquí el Cordero de Dios!”, y ser el uno por el otro verdaderos discípulos de Cristo. Esta semana, sigamos a Jesús, al Señor, más de cerca y seamos santos como El es Santo. Bendiciones en el Señor, Padre Juan, su Párroco
