Fifth Sunday of Easter—April 28, 2013
“Behold, God’s dwelling
is with the human race.”
— Revelation 21:3
THE WAYS OF LOVE
One can feel the energy of a young,
growing church in today’s first reading. For
Paul and Barnabas, it’s smooth sailing. For
the sponsoring church at Antioch, good
news. The second reading—a vision—offers a picture of
triumph, pure and simple. We might paraphrase God’s
direct words to read: “Don’t you see? I make all things new!”
The young church remains new and young to this day
if and when it follows the command Jesus lays down in the
Gospel: “Love one another.” The attitude and actions of love
define the disciples and identify them with their master.
Every person on this earth can be a disciple. For
discipleship does not depend on learning or sophistication
or age or arcane knowledge of secret cults. We are asked to
study and practice the ways of love, right here and right now
in the company of ordinary people.

ST. VINCENT DE PAUL SOCIETY
Dear Brothers and Sisters, this April we celebrate
the 200th birthday of our founder, Frederic Ozanam.
Frederic was a pioneer of the social doctrine of the Church.
He wrote and spoke about the great gulf between those
who have much and those who have little; how unaware we
can be of the structural injustices in our lives and culture.
How it is essential that all have sufficient and all
contribute responsibly to their society. Frederic wrote,
“Charity is the Samaritan who pours oil on the wounds of
the traveler who has been attacked. It is justice’s role to
prevent the attacks.” It is necessary that we as Catholics
take time to examine our personal actions and those of our
community to know the ways these actions support and the
ways they undermine human life and dignity. We urge you
to take some time this week to consider this. We are called
to love and justice and this is not always easy.
“I ask God for a greater desire to go where Jesus has
gone, to live as He lived, to love as He loved. I realize the
cost and this challenges me but I know that it is only in
giving glory to God that I can become the person God made
me to be.” Sacred Space 2013
VEHICLE DONATIONS: any condition. Call 1-800-YESSVDP (1-800-937-7837). Quick pick up!
IT IS MOST SURELY AN EXERCISE OF FAITH
TO SEE CHRIST IN EACH OTHER.

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
Frequent fliers today have many
ways to accrue air miles, so one
doesn’t always have to endure long
hours in cramped seats to earn free hours in cramped
seats. In St. Paul’s day, there were no such perks, nor
would there have been any legal system for him to protest
the shipwrecks he endured. He had other rewards in mind.
The churches that he established in the catalogue of cities
from today’s first reading must have been very different
from one another. Language, culture, customs, religious
history, obstacles to community, social challenges, the
places where they met, their clothing, their bread and wine,
all distinct, particular to the area.
There were social customs as well: in a Christian
household, the only place where a slave would be able to
stand legally as an equal with the master would be at the
table of the Lord, because at that table a new world of
reconciliation was imaged. While Paul revered local
customs, he was relentless about challenging the ways that
people lived their Christian lives and how their worship
reflected them. It is much the same today, as a global
Catholic Church seeks to respect local customs and culture,
allowing for differences in many things, yet always giving
expression to the underlying presence of Christ, who binds
us all together into his body.

POPE FRANCIS
Pope Francis made remarks about the Holy Spirit
and the anniversary of the Second Vatican Council
and people who don’t like change. The Pope said
one example of this resistance [to the Holy Spirit] was the
Second Vatican council which he called “a beautiful work of
the Holy Spirit.” But 50 years later, “have we done everything
the Holy Spirit was asking us to do during the Council,” he
asked. The answer is “No,” said Pope Francis. “We celebrate
this anniversary, we put up a monument but we don’t want it to
upset us. We don’t want to change and what’s more there are
those who wish to turn the clock back.”
Vatican employees won’t receive the special bonus they are
traditionally awarded when a new pope is elected, the Vatican
confirmed on Thursday (April 18), under orders from Pope
Francis to give extra money to charity. On account of the
difficult situation of the general economy, it seemed neither
possible nor opportune to burden Vatican institutions with a
considerable unforeseen extraordinary expense,” the Vatican’s
chief spokesman, the Rev. Federico Lombardi, said in an
emailed statement. The money will be drawn from the pontiff’s
personal charity budget “as a sign of the church’s attention for
the many people who are suffering” from the global economic
slowdown, Lombardi said. In 2005, some 4,000 Vatican
employees received a 1,000 euro bonus ($1,300) upon the
death of Pope John Paul II, and another 500 euros ($650)
upon the election of his successor, Benedict XVI. Francis
said a few days after his election that he wanted a “poor
church, for the poor,” and he has brought a simpler and more
sober style to the papacy.

The first collection amounted to $9,412.46
and the second collection for the
Archbishop’s Assessment amounted to
$1,669.00. In today’s Gospel, Jesus gives His disciples —
and us — a new commandment: “Love one another.” Good
stewards who spend their time and talents in service to
others are well on their way to fulfilling this commandment.

EL CAMINO DEL AMOR
En la primera lectura de hoy podemos
sentir la energía de la joven, creciente Iglesia.
Para Pablo y Bernabé, el trabajo es fructífero,
y para la iglesia que los ayuda en Antioquía,
buena nueva. La segunda lectura –una visión– ofrece un
cuadro de triunfo puro y simple. Podríamos parafrasear las
palabras de Dios y decir: “¿No ven? ¡Todo lo hago nuevo!”
La joven Iglesia permanece nueva y joven hasta hoy
día sólo si sigue los mandatos de Jesús en su Evangelio:
“Ámense unos a otros”. La actitud y las acciones del amor
definen a los discípulos y los identifican con su maestro.
Cada persona sobre la tierra puede ser un discípulo. El ser
discípulo no depende de lo que se aprende o de la
sofisticación o la edad o el conocimiento arcano de ritos
secretos. Se nos pide estudiar y practicar los caminos del
amor, aquí y ahora en la compañía de gente ordinaria.

FE ALADA
fe da alas a la oración, sin ellas,
no puede volar hasta el cielo.
—San Juan Climacus
TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE
El primer día de mayo es reconocido como
el día mundial del trabajo y conmemora seis
mártires de Chicago, quienes fueron fusilados en
1886 cuando la policía trató de impedir una pelea campal
durante una huelga de obreros. Curiosamente esta fecha
no es reconocida por los Estados Unidos pero sí por muchos países latinoaméricanos. En 1954, el Papa Pió XII
apoyó los derechos del obrero incluyendo a san José Obrero en el calendario cristiano. Esta fiesta celebra y recuerda
la doctrina social de la Iglesia católica, una doctrina que
insiste que: “El mensaje cristiano no aparta a las personas
de la edificación del mundo, ni les lleva a despreocuparse
del bien de sus semejantes, sino que les impone esta colaboración como un deber” (Gaudiam et Spes 34).
Es justo conmemorar a san José como obrero en el
día mundial del trabajado, porque este santo varón nos
recuerda que al trabajar uno colabora con Dios en la creación continua del mundo y de la humanidad. El trabajo no
sólo es derecho humano es una responsabilidad que se
debe tomar con amor al prójimo.

SI HAY AMOR
Si hay amor aun para aquellos
que nos ofenden, eres cristiano.
