“Amen, amen, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains just a grain of wheat; but if it dies it produces much fruit.” (Jn 12:24‐25) We understand the meaning of this statement in that the grain of wheat must be buried and in a sense die if it is to be reborn and to grow and produce wheat. TODAY’S READINGS
First Reading — I will make a new covenant; I will write my law upon their hearts (Jeremiah 31:31‐34) or Ezekiel 37:12‐14. Psalm — Create a clean heart in me, O God (Psalm 51) or Psalm 130. Second Reading — Christ learned obedience and became the source of eternal salvation (Hebrews 5:7‐9) or Romans 8:8‐11. Gospel — If a grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it produces much fruit (John 12:20‐33) or John 11:1‐45 [3‐7, 17, 20‐27, 33b‐45].

Monday: Tuesday: Wednesday: Thursday: Friday: Saturday: Sunday: Dn 13:1‐9, 15‐17, 19‐30, 33‐62 [41c‐62]; Ps 23:1‐6; Jn 8:1‐11 Nm 21:4‐9; Ps 102:2‐3, 16‐21; Jn 8:21‐30 Is 7:10‐14; 8:10; Ps 40:7‐11; Heb 10:4‐10; Lk 1:26‐38 Gn 17:3‐9; Ps 105:4‐9: Jn 8:51‐59 Jer 20:10‐13; Ps 18:2‐7; Jn 10:31‐42 Ez 37:21‐28; Jer 31:10, 11‐13; Jn 11:45‐56 Mk 11:1‐10 or Jn 12:12‐16 (procession); Is 50:4‐7; Ps 22:8‐9, 17‐20, 23‐24; Phil 2:6‐11; Mk 14:1 — 15:47 [15:1‐39] That is similar to what we should have been trying to accomplish during this holy Lenten season. The term “born again” is a popular phrase in many churches, but this rebirth is also what we strive for in our Catholic Church. We are reborn in multiple ways — through Baptism, through our ongoing conversion, and through our daily efforts to be good stewards. Lent is, of course, the ideal time for us to seek this rebirth. Our efforts through the past several weeks should have been to bury our old self and to be reborn with a deeper sense of faith and trust in God. Easter is but two weeks away and Lent officially ends on Holy Thursday. However, it is not too late to rededicate ourselves to God‐centered lives. St. John Eudes put it this way, “Let us therefore give ourselves to God with great desire to begin to live thus, and beg Him to destroy in us the life of the world of sin, and to establish His life within us.” Jer 31: 31‐34; Ps 51: 3‐4, 12‐15; Heb 5: 7‐9; Jn 12: 20‐33 San Jaime / San León
22 marzo dé 2015
LECTURAS DE HOY Primera lectura — El Señor hará una nueva alianza con la casa de Israel. (Jeremías 31:31‐34) o Ezequiel 37:12‐14. Salmo — Oh Dios, crea en mí un corazón puro (Salmo 51 (50)) o Segunda lectura — Cristo aprendió obediencia, y los que aho‐
ra le obedecen encuentran en él la salvación eterna (Hebreos 5:7‐
9) o Romanos 8:8‐11. Evangelio — Si el grano de trigo cae en tierra y muere, da mu‐
cho fruto (Juan 12:20‐33) o Juan 11:1‐45. LECTURAS DE LA SEMANA Es similar a lo que deberíamos haber es‐
tado tratando de lograr durante este tiempo de Cuaresma santo. El término "nacer de nuevo" es una frase popular en muchas iglesias, pero este renacimiento es también lo que nos esfor‐
zamos en nuestra Iglesia Católica. Renacemos de múltiples maneras ‐ a través del Bautismo, a través de nuestra con‐
versión permanente, ya través de nuestros esfuerzos diarios para ser buenos administradores. Dn 13:1‐9, 15‐17, 19‐30, 33‐62 [41c‐62]; Sal 23 (22):1‐6; Jn 8:1‐11 Nm 21:4‐9; Sal 102 (101):2‐3, 16‐21; Jn 8:21‐30 Is 7:10‐14; 8:10; Sal 40 (39):7‐11; Heb 10:4‐10; Lc 1:26‐38 Gn 17:3‐9; Sal 105 (104):4‐9: Jn 8:51‐59 Jer 20:10‐13; Sal 18 (17):2‐7; Jn 10:31‐42 Ez 37:21‐28; Jer 31:10, 11‐13; Jn 11:45‐56 Mc 11:1‐10 o Jn 12:12‐16 (procesión); Is 50:4‐7; Sal 22 (21):8‐9, 17‐20, 23‐24; Fil 2:6‐11; Mc 14:1 — 15:47 [15:1‐39] La Cuaresma es, por supuesto, el momento ideal para buscar este renacimiento. Nuestros esfuerzos a través de las últi‐
mas semanas deberían haber sido enterrar nuestro viejo hombre y renacer con un sentido más profundo de la fe y la confianza en Dios. Pascua es pero dos semanas de distancia y Cuaresma oficialmente termina el Jueves Santo. Sin embar‐
go, no es demasiado tarde para volver a dedicarnos a vidas centradas en Dios. San Juan Eudes expresó de esta manera: "Vamos, por tanto, nos entregamos a Dios con gran deseo de empezar a vivir así, y rogarle que destruir en nosotros la vida del mundo de pecado, y establecer su vida en no‐
sotros." Adoración Eucarística El lunes 23 de marzo 2015 tendremos la adoración al Santísi‐
mo Sacramento del Altar, desde las 9:00 am hasta las 5:00 pm. Oremos por nuestro futuro obispo y para que nuestros sacerdotes sean mas sabios y santos, para que los matrimo‐
nios sean fieles a su compromiso matrimonial y por nuestros jóvenes y niños. Rezo del Vía Crucis El viernes 27 de marzo tendremos el Santo Viacrucis bilingüe en el templo de San James a las 6:00 pm Los esperamos. Jeremías 31: 31‐34; Salmo 51: 3‐4, 12‐15; Hebreos 5: 7‐9; Jn 12: 20‐33 Catecismo La sesión de catecismo la dirigirán los padres de familia en casa. Busquen el día, la hora y el lugar para hacer la reunión familiar durante las semana santa y de pascua del 29 de mar‐
zo al 9 de abril. Regresaremos el 10 de abril. La Semana Santa El domingo 29 de marzo inicia la semana santa habrá solo una misa a las 10:30 am. Durante la semana habrá un horario especial. Después de la misa los invitamos a una agradable convivencia familiar. Días extraordinarios de confesiones El domingo 29 marzo inicia la semana mayor, la semana san‐
ta preparémonos con una Buena confesión. Habrá confesio‐
nes en los siguientes templos: Natividad 23 de marzo a las 7:00 pm St Elizabeth Seton 25 de marzo a las 7:00 pm San Marcos 30 de marzo a las 7:00 pm San Pedro 31 de marzo a las 6:30 pm Pagina 3
"En verdad, en verdad os digo, que si el grano de trigo no cae en tierra y muere, queda él solo grano de trigo;pero si muere, produce mucho fruto "(Jn 12: 24‐25). Nosotros en‐
tendemos el significado de esta declaración en que el grano de trigo debe ser enter‐
rado y en un sentido morir si es renacer y crecer y producir trigo. Salmo 130 (129).

Evangelization, mainly with the poor and the youth, is our primary purpose, as well as formation to ministry in the training of diocesan priests and lay ministers. Our motto is “To Serve Christ and His Church.” For more information visit: http://www.eudistes.org/english.htm
