Next Sunday we celebrate Mothers' Day. It is a beautiful celebration in which we can give some much deserved honor to our Mothers, living or deceased. We give them, first of all, the gift of our prayers to thank God for the gift of life which He gave to us through our mother and father. It is a bond which continues even after they die. He chose only ONE woman to be our mother. It was His deliberate choice and He knew what He was doing, even if at times we thought He might have made a mistake ---especially when we were children not on our best behavior! He also gave us His own Mother as His special gift. It is Mary's day also. In our beautiful Basilica, dedicated to her, we are always surrounded by artworks and images of her role in the lives of all of us. To me, it is comforting to know that Mary is always watching over me. She is the perfect model of trusting in God and obeying His plan for us. Every mother, young and older, can look to Mary for strength and comfort in difficult times. In our beautiful Chapel of Mary Mother of the Unborn, you can see the thousands of prayers written to her by mothers-to-be, asking for her protection during pregnancy. We have over 75 books filled with the most beautiful and heart-filled prayers to Mary. The hundreds of baby pictures which fill our Chapel come of grateful mothers who trusted her maternal help. That Chapel has also been a powerful instrument to save the lives of many babies who were almost aborted by women who had lost hope. She changed their minds and gave them the happiness they had prayed for and hoped for. The birth of a baby is a true miracle and the concrete sign of God's hand in our lives. We will pray for all our mothers on Mothers' Day and we will offer special prayers of gratitude to the Mother of us all. Msgr. Ronald T.

En Sintonía En la parábola de la vid, Jesús nos dice: "Vosotros sois la vid", sino: "Yo soy la vid, vosotros los sarmientos". Y esto significa: "Así como los sarmientos están unidos a la vid, de igual modo vosotros me pertenecéis. Pero, perteneciendo a mí, pertenecéis también unos a otros". La Iglesia es esa comunidad de vida con Él y de uno para con el otro, que está fundada en el Bautismo y se profundiza cada vez más en la Eucaristía. "Yo soy la verdadera vid", significa en realidad propiamente: "Yo soy vosotros y vosotros sois yo"; una identificación inaudita del Señor con nosotros, su Iglesia. Cristo mismo se presentó a Saulo, el perseguidor de la Iglesia, antes de llegar a Damasco: "¿Por qué me persigues?". De ese modo, el Señor señala el destino común que se deriva de la íntima comunión de vida de su Iglesia con Él, el Cristo resucitado. En este mundo, Él continúa viviendo en su Iglesia. Parece increíble que el Señor, en el Evangelio, con tan pocas palabras y con tanta sencillez, nos revele misterios tan profundos y tan sublimes. El misterio de nuestra inserción a Él por la gracia. "Yo soy la Vid y vosotros los sarmientos". Nuestro Señor expuso esta alegoría a sus apóstoles la noche de la Ultima Cena, y con ella nos introduce a todos los cristianos en el seno de su intimidad divina. Nos está diciendo que estamos unidos a Él con un vínculo tan profundo y tan vital como los sarmientos están unidos a la vid. El sarmiento es una parte de la vid, una especie de -emanación- de la misma. Y por ambos corre la misma savia. Los sarmientos y la vid no son la misma e idéntica realidad como no lo son la raíz y el tallo, aunque forman un único árbol-; son, más bien, la prolongación de la vid. De esta manera, nuestra unión con Cristo es un reflejo -pero muy lejano- de la misma vida trinitaria. Dios nos ha amado tanto que quiso hacernos partícipes de su naturaleza divina La unión del amor que nos une a nuestro Señor Jesucristo es infinitamente, ha sido por mérito y benevolencia de Cristo hacia nosotros. Ha sido su amor gratuito y misericordioso el que nos ha comprado y redimido, a través de su sangre preciosa. Si queremos tener vida en nosotros y llevar frutos de vida eterna, necesariamente tenemos que permanecer siempre unidos a Cristo: "Como el sarmiento no puede dar fruto por sí, si no permanece en la vid, así tampoco vosotros, si no permanecéis en mí". Las palabras de Cristo son profundas para nuestra vida spiritual.

Dear brothers and sisters, being the Church, to be the People of God, in accordance with the Father’s great design of love, means to be the leaven of God in this humanity of ours. It means to proclaim and to bring God’s salvation to this world of ours, so often led astray, in need of answers that give courage, hope and new vigor for the journey. May the Church be a place of God’s mercy and hope, where all feel welcomed, loved, forgiven and encouraged to live according to the good life of the Gospel. And to make others feel welcomed, loved, forgiven and encouraged, the Church must be with doors wide open so that all may enter. And we must go out through these doors and proclaim the Gospel.
