Easter Sunday of the Resurrection of the Lord
March 27, 2016
A Letter from Our Pastor
Why Easter Is Like Basketball
Every year, when it comes time to celebrate Easter, it
seems that we are also celebrating "March
Madness". To many sports fans, the NCAA Basketball
Tournament is the height of sports viewership. It is
certainly an exciting time. But have you ever thought
of how the basketball tournament is like Easter?
truly "One Shining Moment" for all believers. I hope I
have not violated a copyright!
I know that comparing Easter to basketball is a
stretch. Nothing truly captures the monumental event
of Easter. As Christians, our entire faith is built on
Christ's resurrection. The early Christian community
First, we have underdogs and betting favorites, just
knew that this is what Jesus wanted for them. "Do this
like Jesus and Pontius Pilate, Herod, etc. You know
in memory of me" applied not only to the Eucharist/
the smart money was on the Sanhedrin back in Jesus' Last Supper but also to our entire experience of
day! The game itself goes back and forth just like the
worship. The early Christians broke with Jewish
interrogation between Pilate and Jesus. There is a
custom in establishing the Sabbath on Sunday, the
starting lineup and a bench much like the Apostles and day of the Lord's resurrection. Every time we celebrate
the women at the cross. Very often the bench has to
the Mass on Sunday, we are really "marking" another
pull out the game when the starters falter.
Easter, another gift of Christ to God's people.
Jesus eventually wins over death through great
suffering. The victory in a basketball game is
achieved through great struggle as well. On the
cross, Jesus stands alone. In a game, the lone freethrow shooter is alone also, with everything relying
on him. There is joy in victory. Our Easter joy cannot
really be contained. This great triumph of Jesus is
Father Chris Renner

Pro Populo
Pro populo means “for the people”. A Mass not
offered for a specific person (a Mass Intention) is for
the people of the parish (Pro populo). By canon law
at least one Sunday Mass each week must be offered
Pro populo. At Sacred Heart of Jesus the Pro populo
Mass is rotated through the Sunday schedule, so one
week it’s the anticipatory Mass on Saturday, the next
week it’s the 8 am Sunday, then the 10 am, etc.
Mass Intentions may be arranged at the Parish
Center. The $10 donation includes a Mass card.

The Academic Decathlon, 2016
On March 5, twenty-one teams participated in the
Denver Archdiocese Academic Decathlon, one of
the largest educational competitions in the area.
It promotes academic excellence as well as
cooperative learning skills, higher-order thinking
and teamwork, and celebrates
the diversity and traditions
of our Catholic schools.
The Middle School decathlon
features two team events: a
rigorous Logic Quiz and a Super Quiz finale
encompassing religion, literature, science, art,
and geography. Individuals also face off in
religion, math, social studies, science, fine arts,
current events, literature, English grammar and
spelling. Our students prepared for months, both
on their own and with their coaches.
Vigil Candles are now for sale at the Parish
Center and in the Sacristy: $3 each.

Carta de Nuestro Pastor
¿PORQUE LA SEMANA SANTA ES COMO EL BALONCESTO?
Cada año, cuando llega el momento de celebrar la Pascua, parece que también estamos celebrando
"La Locura de Marzo". Para muchos aficionados a los deportes, el torneo de baloncesto de la NCAA es la
que tiene mas audiencia en deportes. Sin duda, es un momento emocionante. Pero, ¿alguna vez has
pensado en cómo el torneo de baloncesto es como Pascua?
En primer lugar, tenemos oprimidos y favoritos en las apuestas, así como Jesús y Poncio Pilato,
Herodes, etc Usted sabe que el dinero inteligente estaba en el Sanedrín atrás en el tiempo de Jesús! El
juego en sí va y viene al igual que el interrogatorio entre Pilato y Jesús. Hay una alineación titular y un
banco al igual que los Apóstoles y las mujeres en la cruz. Muy a menudo, se usan los de la banca al juego
cuando fallan los entrantes.
Jesús finalmente gana a la muerte con gran sufrimiento. La victoria en un partido de baloncesto se
logra a través de gran lucha también. En la cruz, Jesús se queda solo. En un juego, el lanzador de tiros
libres en solitario es por sí sola también, con todo, confiar en él. Hay alegría en la victoria. Nuestra
alegría en Pascua en realidad no puede ser contenida. Este gran triunfo de Jesús es verdaderamente "Un
momento Radiante" para todos los creyentes. Espero no haber violado un derecho de autor!
Yo sé que la comparación de Pascua con el baloncesto es muy estrecha. Nada realmente captura el
evento monumental de Pascua. Como cristianos, toda nuestra fe se basa en la resurrección de Cristo. La
comunidad cristiana primitiva sabía que esto es lo que Jesús quería para ellos. "Hagan esto en memoria
mía" aplicado no sólo a la / última cena de gracias, sino también a toda nuestra experiencia de adoración.
Los
primeros cristianos rompieron con la costumbre judía en el establecimiento el día de reposo en
domingo, el día de la resurrección del Señor.
Cada vez que celebramos la misa el domingo, estamos realmente "marcando" otra Pascua, otro
don de Cristo a la gente de Dios.
Este año, mi oración es que veamos la misericordia de Dios que brilla a través de la persona de
Cristo. Como dijo Jesús, "Cuando me ven, ven al Padre". Dios quiere que su pueblo se acerca a Él, a
través de buenos y malos. La manera de que se encuentra a través de la cruz y la resurrección de Jesús.
Por lo tanto, feliz locura de marzo, y mucho más importante, Feliz Pascua a todos!
Padre Chris Renner
