Happy Easter to all!
We welcomed many
new adults into the
church on Holy Saturday! Congratulations to them and their families! Also
congratulations to our catechists and Sisters Martha
and Norma who guide these programs. We are greatly blessed to have a very good group of adult catechists and two very hardworking and joyful Sisters
of the Light from Mexico.
Please take the time to enjoy Easter Sunday with
your family and friends. Please give thanks for
Christ’s resurrection that saves us from our fears;
heals our hurts; and gives us the courage, faith and
joy to out to into this world as missionaries of mercy.
As we begin this Easter Season let us use it as we
used Lent! What are one or two aspects of our lives
as individuals that we want the light of the Resurrection to shine in on? What are we still afraid of? How
is God calling me to mission?
At the end of the 50 days of Easter we will find
ourselves at Pentecost. On that great feast of God,
the Holy Spirit let us be ready for the flame of love
to burn brightly in our hearts!
Happy Easter!

varios
adultos en la Iglesia!
Felicidades a todos ellos que recibieron sus
sacramentos y a sus familias también! Quiero
felicitar a la Hermanas Martha y Norma y a los
catechistas del programa de adultos. Tenemos un
programa excelente y de muy buena fama!
Les invito pasar tiempo con sus familias y
amigos hoy en la Pascua! Les invito dar gracias a
Dios por su resurrección que nos salva de nuestros
miedos; que nos sana de nuestras heridas; y que nos
da la fe, y valentía para poder de ser misioneros de la
misericordia en este mundo.
Empezamos la estación de la Pascua por los
próximos 50 días. Podemos aprovechar este estación
a través de dejar la luz de Cristo brillar en una parte
todavía oscura en nuestras vidas. De que tenemos
miedo? Donde y como me llama Dios para misionar?
Al final de esta estación de la Pascua vamos a
estar en Pentecostés! Que estemos listos para recibir
de nuevo el Espíritu Santo, Dios, en nuestros
corazones!
Felices Pascuas a todos!

Laudato Si
This responsibility for God’s earth means that human
beings, endowed with intelligence, must respect the
laws of nature and the delicate equilibria existing
between the creatures of this world, for “he commanded and they were created; and he established
them for ever and ever; he fixed their bounds and he
set a law which cannot pass away” (Ps 148:5b-6).
The laws found in the Bible dwell on relationships,
not only among individuals but also with other living
beings. “You shall not see your brother’s donkey or
his ox fallen down by the way and withhold your
help… If you chance to come upon a bird’s nest in
any tree or on the ground, with young ones or eggs
and the mother sitting upon the young or upon the
eggs; you shall not take the mother with the
young” (Dt22:4, 6). Along these same lines, rest on
the seventh day is meant not only for human beings,
but also so “that your ox and your donkey may have
rest” (Ex 23:12). Clearly, the Bible has no place for a
tyrannical anthropocentrism unconcerned for other
creatures.
Laudato Si
Esta responsabilidad ante una tierra que es de Dios
implica que el ser humano, dotado de inteligencia,
respete las leyes de la naturaleza y los delicados
equilibrios entre los seres de este mundo, porque «
él lo ordenó y fueron creados, él los fijó por
siempre, por los siglos, y les dio una ley que nunca
pasará » (Sal 148,5b-6). De ahí que la legislación
bíblica se detenga a proponer al ser humano varias
normas, no sólo en relación con los demás seres
humanos, sino también en relación con los demás
seres vivos: « Si ves caído en el camino el asno o el
buey de tu hermano, no te desentenderás de ellos
[…] Cuando encuentres en el camino un nido de ave
en un árbol o sobre la tierra, y esté la madre echada
sobre los pichones o sobre los huevos, no tomarás a
la madre con los hijos » (Dt 22,4.6). En esta línea,
el descanso del séptimo día no se propone sólo para
el ser humano, sino también « para que reposen tu
buey y tu asno » (Ex 23,12). De este modo
advertimos que la Biblia no da lugar a un
antropocentrismo despótico que se desentienda de
las demás criaturas.

TO OUR SNOWBIRDS
Thank you for your
support during this
past winter. We
wish you a safe trip
to your summer
abode and look
forward to seeing
you next season!
Receive gratefully and give joyfully,
open the door to mercy
During this season of prayer, fast and
almsgiving, as we reflect on our many
blessings, let us be mindful to give God
thanks and praise. Father Dan would like
to extend his personal gratitude to all who
have generously participated in the 2016
Annual Pastoral Appeal. As we pray on the Life, Death and
Resurrection of our Lord remembering the unconditional
sacrifice He made for us and our salvation, may we respond
with grateful hearts and joyous generosity and Open the
Door to Mercy by remembering those in most need.
