The Second Vatican Council decreed that the devotional
life of the Church should be examined and reformed with an
eye towards expressing Easter faith. This encouragement for
creativity has deep roots in our tradition, and some attempts
at reform show great promise. One of the great treasures in
our devotional repertoire is a familiar feature of Lent: the
Way of the Cross. The faithful walk a path recalling the
events of Christ’s passion, a contemplative experience increasingly enriched these days by scripture and song. There
are fourteen stations in the usual configuration, although in
recent years, a fifteenth station of the Empty Tomb has been
added. Why stop there? Why not develop a similar journey
structured on the theme of the appearances of the Risen
Lord?
Over the last decade, a V ia Lucis, or “Way of Light,” has
developed as a companion to the V ia Crucis. It has been celebrated at the Vatican and is catching on elsewhere. There are
fourteen stations, beginning with the Women Carrying Spices
to the Tomb, continuing with the familiar appearances of the
Lord at Emmaus, the Upper Room, the shore of Tiberias. The
journey ends with stations recalling the apostles’ wait with
Mary for the advent of the Spirit, and with Pentecost. This is
fertile ground indeed for the genius of artists, musicians,
preachers, and liturgists. This is a living example of how
many of our traditions are born to fill a great spiritual need,
and spread to every corner of the Church. It may even come
soon to a church near you. Maybe next Eastertime!
CONTINUALLY PRAISING GOD
In both the first reading and the Gospel we are told
about Christ’s glorious ascension into heaven. Paul’s letter
to the Ephesians reminds us that Christ has been seated at
God’s right hand in heaven, above every choir of angels.
There might be a temptation to stay at an awed distance
from Jesus Christ. However, the tone of today’s readings
is far from that temptation. The tone is exultant and the
message is urgent. We are to be his witnesses, and the
Gospel describes the first witnesses this way: “[W]ith
great joy . . . they were continually in the temple praising
God” (Luke 24:53).
How can we continually praise God? The answer can
be found in the second reading, in which Paul prays that
God will give us a “Spirit of wisdom and revelation” in
order to know Christ clearly (Ephesians 1:17). We cannot
stand at a distance. We are to be enlightened and empowered.

CONTINUAMENTE ALABANDO A DIOS
Tanto la primera lectura como el Evangelio nos cuentan la gloriosa Ascensión de Cristo al cielo. La carta de
san Pablo a los efesios nos recuerda que Cristo está sentado a la derecha de Dios en el cielo, por encima de todos
los coros de ángeles. Puede que tengamos la tentación de
mantenernos a reverencial distancia de Jesucristo. Sin
embargo, el tono de las lecturas de hoy dista mucho de
esa tentación. El tono es exuberante y el mensaje es urgente. Hemos de ser sus testigos, y el Evangelio describe
a los primeros testigos de esta manera: “Muy alegres. . .
permanecían constantemente en el templo alabando a
Dios” (Lucas 24:53).
¿Cómo podemos alabar a Dios continuamente? La
respuesta se encuentra en la segunda lectura, en la cual
Pablo pide a Dios que nos conceda un “espíritu de sabiduría y de reflexión” para conocer a Cristo claramente
(Efesios 1:17). No podemos mantenernos a distancia. Vamos a ser iluminados y fortalecidos.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE
Hoy celebramos a una mujer potente e importante
en nuestras vidas; la madre. La historia del Día de las
Madres se originó en las fiestas griegas en honor de
Rhea, la madre de los dioses. A lo largo de la historia
los cristianos también hemos recordado a la Madre de
Dios, María, en varias solemnidades, pero hace sólo
100 años que en el 10 de mayo de 1907 en Estados
Unidos se empezó a promover la idea de un día de reconocimiento del amor que tenemos como humanos
por nuestras propias madres. Eventualmente se paso a
muchas naciones latinoamericanas.
Muchas culturas latinoamericanas son matriarcales,
es decir, el papel de la madre en la familia es algo esencial. Para los latinos, no hay amor más grande que el de
una madre. Sin olvidar la función del
padre, ella es la que
nos da la vida, nos
enseña como vivirla
y nos da alimento. Su
amor nos recuerda al
de Cristo, quien con
sacrificio y amor da
vida a la Iglesia. Su
amor sostiene y cuando las cosas se ponen
difíciles emocionalmente, nuestro deseo
secreto es de estar en
los brazos de mamá.
