From the Desk of Father Jonathan
Humility. Humility. Humility On the one hand, it is a virtue derided by contemporary society. If you are humble, you must be weak. If you are humble, you must be without strong opinions or convictions. If you are humble, you are probably igno-rant. That's what the world tells us. On the other hand, humility is a virtue extolled by Christ himself. "The meek shall inherit the earth," were Jesus' own words. He was saying that we will be blessed with the best of his creation if we learn to become humble. I am so impressed and inspired by so many of you because of your humility. What do I see in you? You listen. You speak with kindness. You ask for forgiveness. You make suggestions and even advocate strongly for what you believe, but with charity and goodness. I just want to say thank you to all of you who teach me humility, day in and day out. I'm trying to learn to be like you. Please forgive me for the times I do not live up to the call.
God bless,
Father Jonathan
+ REST IN PEACE +
Please pray for all deceased Mothers, Grand-mothers, Godmothers, Vincenzo Malafronte,

REFLECTING ON GOD’S WORD
THE WAY Today we sense the apostles’ trepidation as they begin to realize that the Lord would soon be leaving them. In their fear, they ask, “Master, we do not know where you are going; how can we know the way?” (John 14:5). Jesus tells them that he is the way. The Easter season has been a time of growing in Easter faith so that we, too, may learn to know that Jesus is the way. We can take comfort in the Lord’s promise that he is going to his Father’s house to prepare a place for us, his chosen people who have been called out of darkness into God’s wonderful light. As the paschal candle continues to burn during this holy season, let us remember that in baptism we were given the light of Christ. With Christ our light as the beacon lighting our way, let us march toward the glory of Pentecost.

RIFLETTIAMO SULLA PAROLA DI DIO
IL CAMMINO
Le ultime parole che si pronunciano alla fine della vita hanno un carattere particolare. Riassumono il mistero di un essere. Platone fa parlare il suo maestro Socrate di immortalità prima di morire. Il condannato a morte consola quelli che restano. Le ultime parole possono essere molto pragmatiche. La madre di Goethe diede istruzioni di non mettere troppa uva passa nel dolce preparato per la sua sepoltura. Alcuni esortano i loro figli a sostenersi a vicenda. I patriarchi della Bibbia muoiono benedicendo la loro discendenza. Anche nel nostro Vangelo si tratta di ultime parole. Parla uno che è consapevole di stare per morire. E colui che ne ha preso nota è convinto che quel morto è ancora in vita. Non leggete queste parole come un discorso ben costruito e coerente. Immaginate delle pause. Prendetele piuttosto come parole pronunciate in un profondo silenzio, come parole indirizzate a uomini prigionieri, “tutt’orecchi”, in qualche modo. Noi potremmo ascoltarle anche come si ascolta una goccia d’acqua cadere in una grotta. Bisogna che chi ascolta sia assolutamente silenzioso per lasciar entrare in sé queste parole. Se noi ascoltiamo veramente, sentiamo parole di consolazione: “Non sia turbato il vostro cuore”. Parole di speranza: “Nella casa del Padre mio vi sono molti posti”. Parole di maestà: “Io sono la via, la verità e la vita. Nessuno viene al Padre se non per mezzo di me”. Parole di vocazione esigente: “Chi crede in me compirà le opere che io compio”. Non è facile per noi capire immediatamente queste parole. I discepoli che interrompono il Signore fanno delle domande smarrite. Non hanno ancora capito, eppure è già l’ora dell’addio. Sapremo noi capire meglio? © la chiesa.it
TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION In many parish churches, more rarely in monastery churches and cathedrals, the tabernacle with the Blessed Sacrament is visible from a doorway or aisle in the church. Normally, a person is to give the proper sign of reverence, a genuflection, when passing in proximity to the tabernacle. The word “genuflect” comes from Latin roots meaning bending (or flexing) the knee. A common-sense exception to the rule is for a sacristan who is tak-ing care of the church and can’t be genuflecting every thirty seconds during a vacuum run. Also excepted are persons in procession entrusted with important symbols of the Lord’s presence. So, a crossbearer or a minister carrying the Gospel book, or ministers on their way to their Communion stations do not genuflect. For every-one else, the usual sign of reverence for the Lord’s pres-ence in the Blessed Sacrament is to genuflect on the right knee. The oldest form of reverence during prayer in our tradition is standing; kneeling or genuflecting is a sign borrowed from old civic practice. The posture of kneel-ing, even on one knee, is a sign of submission. Servants would take this position before their masters in the an-cient world. It said: I’m not running away, I’m yours, I’m here for you. This is what your genuflection says when you enter a Catholic church where the place of reservation of the Blessed Sacrament is visible to you: I’m yours.

Alcune Meditazioni per la settimana...
Cantate al Signore un canto nuovo, perché ha compiuto prodigi;
a tutti i popoli ha rivelato la salvezza. Alleluia. (Sal 98,1-2)
“Io sono la via, la verità e la vita”, dice il Signore. Alleluia. (Gv 14,6)
REFLEXIONEMOS LA PALABRA DE DIOS
EL CAMINO Hoy sentimos la perturbación de los apóstoles cuando empiezan a darse cuenta de que el Señor pronto los dejará. Temerosos preguntan: “Señor, no sabemos a dónde vas ¿cómo podemos saber el camino?” (Juan 14:5). Jesús les dice que él es el camino. El tiempo de Pascua ha sido un tiempo para crecer en la fe pascual para que, así también, nosotros podamos darnos cuenta de que Jesús es el camino. Nos consuela la promesa del Señor de que va a la casa de su Padre a preparar un lugar para nosotros, su pueblo elegido que ha sido llamado de las tinieblas a la luz admirable de Dios. Mientras el cirio pascual continúa ardiendo en este tiempo santo, recordemos que en nuestro bautismo nos dieron la luz de Cristo. Con Cristo, nuestra luz como faro iluminando nuestro camino, marchemos hacia la gloria de Pentecostés.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE Después de la muerte de Jesús, los discípulos habían regresado a su antiguo oficio de la pesca para así ganarse la vida, pues no sabían qué hacer. El Jesús resucitado tuvo que pescárselos de nuevo. En su tercera aparición, Jesús pidió a los discípulos que lanzaran sus redes al mar. Estos sacaron 153 peces del mar, número representativo de todas las naciones del mundo. Esta pesca milagrosa que tuvo lugar en Galilea, nos recuerda otra pesca mila-grosa hecha en Brasil. En 1716 tres pescadores pescaban en el Río Paraiba y al lanzar la red al agua sacaron una estatua de la Virgen de la Concepción. Después, la pesca fue tan abundante que por poco hundía el barco. La virgencita de 36 centímetros había pasado muchos años en el agua por lo cual había tomado el rico color oscuro de muchos latinoamericanos. La devoción a Nues-tra Señora de Aparecida creció hasta que la familia que la había encontrado la dio al pueblo para que en 1745 se construyera para ella una capilla pública. De esta manera, Aparecida pasó de las redes a los corazones, dando una rica pesca de personas para su Hijo.
