Sacrificial Giving is a response to the Generosity of God.
Our gifts should be:
Planned. Plan ahead of time what we intend to give, and have our gift
ready at collection time. Don’t simply drop a spare dollar in the basket
or let it pass by without giving.
Proportionate. Our giving should be in proportion to how greatly God
has blessed us.
Sacrificial. We ought to give more than just what is left over after
taking care of all our needs and wants.
Thankful. Our offering should be a grateful response to the immense
love God has shown for us.
Dar con sacrificio, es una respuesta a la generosidad de Dios.
Nuestros ofrenda debe ser:
Planeada. Planear con tiempo cuanto va a ser mi ofrenda, y tenerlo listo
para el tiempo de la colecta. No solamente soltar un dólar o dejar pasar
la canasta sin dar nada.
Proporcionalmente. Nuestra ofrenda debe ser en proporción a lo
muncho que Dios nos ha bendecido.
Sacrificialmente. Nuestra ofrenda debe ser mas de lo que simplemente
nos sobra despues de haber tomado para todas nuestras necesidades y
deseos.
Agradecimiento. Nuestra ofrenda debe ser una acción de gracias a Dios,
por el inmenso amor que nos ha manifestado.

THE UNINTERRUPTED SANCTUS
"Those preceding Him as well as those who followed cried out: 'Hosanna!' " —Mark 11:9
When Jesus entered Jerusalem shortly before His death, the great crowd "got palm branches and came out to meet Him.
They kept shouting: 'Hosanna! Blessed is He Who comes in the name of the Lord!' " (Jn 12:13) Every time we go to Mass,
the Church calls us to continue these praises when we pray: "Holy, holy, holy Lord, God of hosts, heaven and earth are full
of Your glory. Hosanna in the highest. Blessed is He Who comes in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest."
The Church hopes that our "Holy, holy, holy" and "Hosanna" will never change and will last forever (see Rv 4:8). When
these praises were first sung, Jesus' admirers changed their tune from "Hosanna!" to "Crucify Him!" (Mk 15:13-14) When
Jesus told Peter and the other apostles that they would turn on Him, change their tune, and deny Him repeatedly, they
reasserted vehemently that they would die for Him rather than deny Him (Mk 14:31). However, an hour or two later, they
"all deserted Him and fled" (Mk 14:50).
What will you do this Holy Week? By sin, will you continue to crucify Him (see Heb 6:6) or, by repentance, will you
continue to praise Him and even help carry the cross? (see Mk 15:21) Will our Holy Week and our lives be "Holy, holy,
holy" or "Crucify, crucify, crucify"? Or will it be both?
