ThirdSundayinLent March24,2019

Message from Father Pergjini: It was last Saturday, March 16, 2019. Early in the morning I opened the church and the Grotto. Outside it was very quiet and almost no one was on the street. It was cold and windy. At that time, early Saturday morning, peo-ple are sleeping and few have to go to work. As I opened the Grotto, looking at the Blessed Mother in the silence of my heart, I felt her smile and presence as always I do. I asked her help that early morning as we continue the Forty Days for Life in the Bronx. After that short prayer at the grotto I was ready to drive toward the abortion clinic at 2070 Eastchester Rd, near the 49th police precinct. It is sad to say that many people are not aware that not far from our parish the innocent human life is terminated through the atrocious act of abortion. That early morning came with me one of our faithful parishioners and very dedicated pro life activist, Teresita, who patiently was waiting outside for me. During the very short drive we did say two decades of the rosary. It prepared both of us for what we had to face and it strengthened us to be ready to handle the sadness of that place. As I was driving and repeating those sweet Hail Marys many memories came to my mind of my past experience of that sad place. Those early mornings as a seminarian and later as a priest coming to the Bronx Abortion Clinic inspired me to see many humble and dedicated faithful Catholic who felt the need to come and pray and counsel the young couples in order to change the minds of those who were heading to abort the innocent human lives. As we walked to the place we saw a big number of people, almost 40 of them, among them were already a few from our parish. I was very proud seeing them kneeling on the sidewalk and praying. There were more than ten young girls wearing clinic volunteers’ vests who escorted the young couples who were going to have abortion. I firmly believe that they are paid to be there. We are not allowed to be near the entrance of the clinic. They were standing in front of us so the girls could not see us, but they could not stop us saying the rosary. We also tried our best to raise higher our signs saying “Pray to End Abortion". The police were there trying to keep both groups under control, but unfortunately the police did not restrict the area for the pro-abortion group. They were moving around with their coffee cups and sandwiches in their hands and screaming with their angry voices while we were peacefully praying. We did pray for them too, hoping, one day they will be touched by the light of Christ. Finally, the moment came when the young girls with their boyfriends or with their mothers started to come. It was very sad to see their tormented faces who tried not to look toward us who were praying with our rosaries in our hands to stop entering into that abortion mill. As some of them walked in with shame, some others changed their minds and went away, at least for the moment, we all prayed that the babies in their wombs may continue to live. The time came for me to leave the humble people who continued saying the rosaries one after the other. The sadness of that place touched my whole being as I was heading toward the parish to celebrate the Holy Mass. Many of us do not see the daily bloodshed in those abortion mills early in the morning. Every single day in the United States more than five thousands innocent human lives are ended through criminal act of abortion. One day, hoping is not too late for them and for all of us, I firmly believe they will see the mortal sin committed by abortion. The faces of those young girls and those who helped them to enter the clinic of abortion, especially one of them who entered bitterly crying, and the humble people praying in that cold weather of March came to my mind as I was celebrating Holy Mass. I placed them before Christ on the Altar begging for conversion of their hearts and God's Mercy on us all. The reading this third

Sunday of Lent reminds us the powerful words of Christ: “But I tell you if do not repent, you will all perish as they did” Luke 1-9. These words of Christ are not a threat without hope. They are

demanding words telling us the mortal consequences if we do not enter into the journey of our conversion. During Lent, and always, Christ wants the salvation of our broken souls, and not our death. Saint Mother Teresa of Calcutta once said that if abortion does not end never will there be peace on earth. Yes indeed, humble people from every parish and from our parish, who humbly pray early in the morning for conversions of those who are going to 2070 Eastchester Road, Bronx abortion center ending an innocent human life. It is our duty to raise our voices and pray. May Our Lady of the unborn pray for us! It was Saturday March 16, 2019.

Mensaje del Padre Pergjini: Fue el pasado sábado 16 de marzo de 2019. Temprano por la mañana abrí la iglesia y la Gruta. Afuera estaba muy tranquilo y casi nadie estaba en la calle. Estaba frío y ventoso. En ese momento, temprano en la mañana del sábado, la gente está durmiendo y pocos tienen que ir a trabajar. Cuando abrí la Gruta, mirando a la Santísima Madre en el silencio de mi corazón, sentí su sonrisa y presencia como siempre lo hago. Le pedí ayuda a esa madrugada mientras continuamos los cuarenta días por la vida en el Bronx. Después de esa breve oración en la gruta, estaba listo para conducir hacia la clínica de abortos en 2070 Eastchester Rd, cerca del distrito policial número 49. Es triste decir que muchas personas no son conscientes de que, no lejos de nuestra parroquia, la vida humana inocente se termina con el atroz acto del aborto. Esa madrugada me acompañó uno de nuestros fieles feligreses y muy dedicado activista pro vida, Teresita, que pacientemente me estaba esperando afuera. Durante el corto trayecto en coche dijimos dos décadas del rosario. Nos preparó a los dos para lo que teníamos que enfrentar y nos fortaleció para estar preparados para manejar la tristeza de ese lugar. Mientras conducía y repetía esos dulces Hail Marys, muchos recuerdos vinieron a mi mente de mi experiencia pasada de ese triste lugar. Esas mañanas como seminarista y luego como sacerdote que venía a la Clínica de Aborto del Bronx me inspiraron a ver a muchos católicos fieles y humildes que sintieron la necesidad de venir a orar y aconsejar a las parejas jóvenes para cambiar las mentes de quienes eran En dirección a abortar las vidas humanas inocentes. Mientras caminábamos hacia el lugar, vimos a un gran número de personas, casi 40 de ellas, entre ellas ya algunas de nuestra parroquia. Estaba muy orgulloso de verlos arrodillados en la acera y orando. Había más de diez niñas con chalecos de voluntarios de la clínica que acompañaban a las parejas jóvenes que iban a abortar. Creo firmemente que se les paga para estar allí. No se nos permite estar cerca de la entrada de la clínica. Estaban frente a nosotros para que las chicas no pudieran vernos, pero no pudieron detenernos a rezar el rosario. También hicimos lo posible por elevar nuestras señales y decir "Oremos para poner fin al aborto". La policía estaba allí tratando de mantener a ambos grupos bajo control, pero desafortunadamente la policía no restringió el área para el grupo pro-aborto. con sus tazas de café y sándwiches en sus manos y gritando con sus voces enojadas mientras orábamos pacíficamente. También oramos por ellos, esperando que algún día sean tocados por la luz de Cristo. Finalmente, llegó el momento en que los jóvenes Las niñas con sus novios o con sus madres empezaron a venir. Fue muy triste ver a sus atormentados rostros que intentaron no mirar hacia nosotros, que rezaban con nuestros rosarios en nuestras manos, para dejar de ingresar a esa fábrica de abortos. Con vergüenza, algunos otros cambiaron de opinión y se fueron, al menos por el momento, todos rezamos para que los bebés en sus entrañas sigan viviendo. Llegó el momento de dejar a las personas humildes que continuaron diciendo las palabras. osarios uno tras otro. La tristeza de ese lugar conmovió todo mi ser cuando me dirigía a la parroquia para celebrar la Santa Misa. Muchos de nosotros no vemos el derramamiento de sangre diario en esos molinos de abortos temprano en la mañana. Cada día en los Estados Unidos, más de cinco mil vidas humanas inocentes se terminan a través de un acto criminal de aborto. Un día, la esperanza no es demasiado tarde para ellos y para todos nosotros, creo firmemente que verán el pecado mortal cometido por el aborto. Los rostros de esas niñas y de quienes las ayudaron a ingresar a la clínica del aborto, especialmente una de ellas que entró llorando amargamente, y las personas humildes que rezaban en el clima frío de marzo, vinieron a mi mente cuando estaba celebrando la Santa Misa. colóquelos ante Cristo en el Altar pidiendo la conversión de sus corazones y la Misericordia de Dios en todos nosotros. La lectura de este tercer domingo de

Cuaresma nos recuerda las poderosas palabras de Cristo: “Pero te digo que si no te arrepientes, todos perecerás como ellos lo hicieron” Lucas 1-9. Estas palabras de Cristo no son una amenaza sin

esperanza. palabras exigentes que nos dicen las consecuencias mortales si no entramos en el camino de nuestra conversión. Durante la Cuaresma, y siempre, Cristo quiere la salvación de nuestras almas quebrantadas, y no nuestra muerte. La Santa Madre Teresa de Calcuta dijo una vez que si el aborto no termina nunca habrá paz en la tierra. Sí, personas humildes de cada parroquia y de nuestra parroquia, que oran humildemente por la mañana temprano por las conversiones de los que van a 2070 Eastchester Road, centro de aborto del Bronx que termina con un humano inocente. la vida. Es nuestro deber elevar nuestras voces y orar. ¡Que Nuestra Señora de los no nacidos ore por nosotros! Fue el sábado 16 de marzo de 2019.
