If you see something, say something

We see this warning in airports and schools, but experts say it’s also a great way for parents to think about Internet safety for their children. One of the best ways to protect children using the Internet is to actually engage with them in what they’re doing: play the games they play and check out their profile pages with them. Discuss online respect and rules for what can and cannot be shared. Regular conversation and monitoring helps keep children safe online.

For more information, read the article by Catholic News Service, “Vigilance by parents and their children

called key to safe internet use.”

For a while it was very fashionable to own pigs as pets. The publicity surrounding these creatures informed us that they were—contrary to their popular image—very clean animals, and also quite smart. Sad to say, sheep will most likely never enjoy this sort of domestic vogue. They are neither clean nor smart and are largely defenseless when left on their own, even in large numbers. The biblical image of us as the flock of sheep is not a particularly flattering one. Sheep without a shepherd are truly sad, because they most likely will perish either from their inability to fend for themselves or from their lack of defenses against predators. Placing ourselves in the heart of this unflattering image can reinforce our faith. Until we come to a profound realization of how much we need a shepherd, we cannot appreciate how deeply blessed we are to have been given a Shepherd, one who laid down his life for us and was raised to life eternal in the Spirit, so he might guide us and we might follow him in faith forever.

Psalm — The Lord is my shepherd; there is nothing I shall want (Psalm 23). Second Reading — Once we were like straying sheep; but now we have been returned to the shepherd, our guardian (1 Peter 2:20b-25).

SAINTS PHILIP AND JAMES, APOSTLES May 3

Call Philip the gospel’s “Answer Man.” “Can anything good come out of Nazareth?” Nathaniel asked Philip, who had proclaimed Jesus “the one about whom Moses wrote in the law, and also the prophets” (John 1:45). Jesus asked Philip, “Where can we buy enough food for them to eat?” (John 6:5). Greeks brought Philip their request: “We would like to see Jesus” (John 12:21). Philip’s answer to each question: bring people to Jesus! At the Last Supper, finally, Philip had a request of his own: “Show us the Father!” (John 14:8). Jesus had three last questions for Philip: “You still don’t know me? How can you ask that? Don’t you believe?” And an answer: “I am in the Father and the Father is in me” (John 14:10). Today’s James is not John’s brother, Zebedee’s son, but, tradition says, author of the New Testament Letter of James, who died praying for his murderers in Jesus’ words: “Forgive them, for they know not what they do.” Few historical details for either saint, but lessons aplenty: Bring every question we have and everybody we meet to Jesus; be, as James’ letter challenges, “doers of the word and not hearers only” (James 1:22). —Peter Scagnelli, Copyright © J.

Por un tiempo estuvo de moda tener cerdos como mascotas. La publicidad que rodeó a estas criaturas nos informó que, contrario a la imagen popular, son animales muy limpios y también bastante inteligentes. Resulta triste decirlo, pero las ovejas probablemente nunca gozarán de este tipo de popularidad doméstica. Ni limpias ni inteligentes, son mayormente indefensas cuando se dejan solas, aunque el rebaño sea numeroso. La imagen bíblica de que somos un rebaño de ovejas no resulta muy favorecedora. Triste es el caso de las ovejas sin pastor porque, sin duda, perecerán dada su incapacidad de valerse por sí mismas o su carencia de defensas contra sus predadores. Colocarnos al centro de esta imagen poco favorecedora puede fortalecer nuestra fe. Sólo cuando tomamos profunda conciencia de que necesitamos un pastor, podemos apreciar nuestras bendiciones al haber sido entregados al Pastor, a aquél que dio su vida por nosotros y fue resucitado para la vida eterna en el Espíritu, a fin de poder guiarnos por siempre mientras lo seguimos en fe.

¿S U ? Si ves algo, di algo

Vemos esta advertencia en aeropuertos y escuelas, pero los expertos dicen que también es una excelente manera para que los padres de familia piensen en la seguridad de Internet para sus hijos. Una de las mejores formas de proteger a los niños que usan Internet es participar realmente en lo que están haciendo: jugar los juegos que ellos juegan y revisar junto con ellos sus páginas de perfil. Discuta sobre el respeto en línea y las reglas para lo que puede y no puede ser compartido. La conversación y el monitoreo regulares ayudan a mantener a los niños seguros en línea

SANTOS FELIPE Y SANTIAGO (Siglo I) 3 de mayo

Felipe nació en Bastida y fue discípulo de Juan Bautista. Él mismo descubrió en la persona de Jesús al Mesías, al anunciado en el Antiguo Testamento y va a comunicarlo a los demás. Asimismo, el evangelista pone en boca de Felipe la falta de fe: ‘Ni doscientos denarios (salario por un día de trabajo) bastarían para darle de comer a esta multitud’. Jesús multiplica el pan y alimenta a la multitud. Se cree que Felipe murió hacia el año 87 y sus restos fueron llevados a Roma, a la Iglesia de los Apóstoles, junto a los de Santiago, de ahí que la fiesta litúrgica sea el mismo día. Santiago “el menor” es el hijo de Alfeo y también pertenece a los Doce. Fue obispo de Jerusalén a partir del año 42, debido a la muerte de Santiago “el mayor”. Fue él mismo quien escribió la carta canónica que aparece en el Nuevo Testamento. El historiador Flavio Josefo nos dice que fue martirizado en el año 62 debido a una orden de lapidación emitida por el sumo sacerdote Anás II. —Miguel Arias, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

ARCHBISHOP GOMEZ CALLS ON CALIFORNIA CATHOLICS TO

SUPPORT EXTENDING UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS FOR

CHURCH WORKERS Archbishop José H. Gomez is asking California Catholics to support extending unemployment benefits to Church workers under federal emergency legislation addressing dislocations caused by the coronavirus epidemic. Currently, non-profit employees in multiple states do not have access to state unemployment insurance. Faith communities are urging Congress to provide emergency disaster unemployment assistance to workers that are not covered by state unemployment insurance. “As we know, the impact of the coronavirus emergency is being felt profoundly in our Catholic community. Nationwide, the Church has been forced to suspend worship services and close schools and other important offices and ministries, effecting tens of thousands of our employees,” said Archbishop Gomez. “Please join me in asking Congress to extend unemployment benefits to Church workers who might need this relief. Let us stand together in solidarity for our brothers and sisters in this time of trial and need.” California Catholics are asked to contact Senators Dianne Feinstein and Kamala Harris, as well as local representatives, to make sure they are aware of this problem of non-profit employees in multiple states who do not currently have access to state unemployment insurance, and to ask that they support an effective solution.

CATHEDRAL SUNDAY MASS IN ENGLISH WILL BE AVAILABLE TO THE FAITHFUL

VIA FOX 11 LOS ANGELES’ AFFILIATE KCOP CHANNEL 13 DURING THE CORONAVIRUS

PANDEMIC

FOX11 Los Angeles will air the weekly English Sunday Masses, at 10 a.m., from the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels, through KCOP Channel 13, an affiliate station of Fox 11 Los Angeles, during the COVID-19 (novel coronavirus) pandemic. The broadcaster aired the Easter Sunday Mass in English celebrated by Archbishop José H. Gomez, which provided thousands of families, especially those with no access to the Internet, the opportunity to gather as a family to celebrate Mass in their home. Since the unprecedented decision to suspend the public celebration of Mass to prevent the spread of COVID-19, Archbishop José H. Gomez continues encouraging the faithful to keep participating in the Holy Mass via television, radio and online. “Even though we cannot publicly gather in communion to celebrate our faith, I encourage our faithful to continue to participate in the Holy Mass via television, radio and online so that we may continue to pray together for the Lord’s grace and mercy in our time of need,” said Archbishop Gomez.

Univision Los Angeles, has been airing and will continue to air daily and Sunday Masses in Spanish at 7 a.m. from the Cathedral directly into homes over the air via Univision’s local UniMás KFTR-TV, Channel 46

since the Archdiocese announced the closure of parishes on March 16.

Catholic media are also helping to bring Holy Mass

directly to Catholic faithful airing Masses in English and Spanish on cable, radio and via the internet on Relevant Radio (930AM), The Catholic Channel on SiriusXM,

Guadalupe Radio and El Sembrador TV and Radio (ESNE).

Catholics can find a listing of available livestreams and

broadcasts of Masses in the Archdiocese at lacatholics.org/mass-for-the-homebound so that they may continue to pray at home with their families and

join to the sacrifice of the Mass. For more information on the efforts of the Archdiocese

of Los Angeles to limit the spread of the pandemic, visit lacatholics.org/emergency/.

LA MISA DE LA CATEDRAL EN INGLÉS ESTARÁ DISPONIBLE PARA LOS FIELES A

TRAVÉS DE KCOP CANAL 13 DE FOX 11 LOS ÁNGELES DURANTE LA PANDEMIA DEL

CORONAVIRUS FOX11 Los Angeles transmitirá al aire las Misas dominicales en inglés, a las 10 a.m., desde la Catedral de Nuestra Señora de Los Ángeles, a través de KCOP Channel 13, estación afiliada de Fox 11 Los Ángeles, durante la pandemia del COVID-19 (coronavirus). La televisora transmitió la Misa del Domingo de Pascua en inglés, celebrada por el Arzobispo José H. Gomez, la cual dio la oportunidad a miles de familias, especialmente a las que no tienen acceso a Internet, de reunirse como familia para celebrar la Misa en sus hogares. Desde la decisión sin precedentes de suspender la celebración pública de las Misas para prevenir la propagación del COVID-19, el Arzobispo José H. Gomez sigue alentando a los fieles a continuar participando en la Santa Misa vía televisión, radio y en línea. “Aunque no podamos reunirnos en público para celebrar nuestra fe, animo a nuestros fieles a seguir participando en la Santa Misa vía televisión, radio y en línea para que podamos seguir orando juntos por la gracia y misericordia del Señor en nuestro tiempo de necesidad”, dijo el Arzobispo Gomez.

Desde que la Arquidiócesis anunció el cierre de las parroquias el 16 de marzo, Univision Los Angeles ha

estado transmitiendo y seguirá transmitiendo las Misas en español diarias y dominicales a las 7 a.m., directamente

desde la Catedral a los hogares, a través del canal local de Univisión, UniMás KFTR-TV, Canal 46.

Los medios católicos también están ayudando a llevar la

Santa Misa directamente a los fieles católicos transmitiendo las Misas en inglés y en español por cable,

radio y vía Internet en Relevant Radio (930AM), The Catholic Channel on SiriusXM, Guadalupe Radio y El

Sembrador TV y Radio (ESNE). Los católicos pueden encontrar una lista de transmisiones

en vivo y a través de televisión de las Misas en la Arquidiócesis en lacatholics.org/mass-for-the-

homebound para que puedan continuar orando en casa con sus familias y así puedan unirse al sacrificio de la

Misa. Para obtener más información sobre los esfuerzos que la Arquidiócesis de Los Ángeles está haciendo para ayudar

a detener la propagación de la pandemia, visite lacatholics.org/emergency/.
