Our God is truly an awesome God for He has given His Only Begotten Son, Jesus to redeem us from our sinfulness and condemnation and to give us life, a life to its fullest. Let us reflect on the importance of Easter. Today, Second Sunday of Easter which is also Divine Mercy Sunday, we give thanks to the Lord for His ocean of mercy. Easter is a season of joy, hope and love. And this Easter joy should be celebrated the whole liturgical year. The Paschal Mysteries, the Passion, Death and Resurrection of Jesus, are celebrated in all the Sundays – Easter Sunday is for the liturgical year and Sunday is for the week. In the Holy Mass, the priest sends us forth by saying: “Go in peace, glorifying the Lord by your life! Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia!” GRATITUDE!: People who came to the Holy Triduum Liturgies (Holy Thursday, Good Friday and Easter Vigil) and the Easter Sunday Celebrations commented that those liturgical celebrations were soul-lifting encounters. The liturgical environment, liturgies, ministers and the active participation helped them enter into the Paschal Mysteries. This never happened if not all the smallest contributions of time, talents and treasures of all of you. From Palm Sunday, Holy Thursday to Easter Vigil and Easter Sunday, it was truly an experience and encounter with our Suffering but Glorious and Risen Lord! Thank You! Thank You! Thank You! CONGRATULATIONS: The following neophytes received were baptized, confirmed and received their First Communion – Cristian Badillo, Gelin Barrios, Keyli Gonzales, Nick Hood, Damian Llanos, Leonard Marino and Gabriela Sandoval. UPDATE: After the busyness of Lent and Holy Week and Easter Sunday celebrations, our students in the CCD are now readily preparing themselves for their First Communion and Confirmation. Let us pray for them. The Parish Festival 2016 Solicitation Letters are available for our generous sponsors and benefactors.

Nuestro Dios es un Dios impresionante porque el nos ha dado a su Hijo unigenito, Jesus, para redimirnos de nuestros pecados y condenacion y para que nos de vida, una vida al maximo. Reflexionemos sobre la importancia de la Pascua. Hoy es segundo domingo de Pascua y es tambien el domingo de la misericordia divina, demos gracias al Senor por su mar de misericordia. La Pascua es una temporada de alegría, esperanza y amor. Y esta alegría de la Pascua debe celebrarse el ano liturgico entero. Los misterios de la pascula, la pasion, muerte y resurreccion de Jesus, se celebran todos los domingos – el domingo de resurreccion es para el ano liturgico y el domingo es para la semana. En la Santa Misa, el sacerdote nos envía por delante diciendo: "ve en paz, glorifica al Senor por tu vida! Aleluya, Aleluya, Aleluya!" AGRADECIMIENTO!: A las personas que asistieron a las liturgias del Triduo Santo (Jueves Santo, Viernes Santo y Vigilia Pascual) y las celebraciones del domingo de Pascua, se nos ha dicho que las celebraciones liturgicas se avivan el alma. El ambiente liturgico, liturgias, ministros y la participacion activa nos ayudo a entrar en los misterios pascuales. Esto no hubiese pasado sin todas las contribuciones de tiempo, talentos y dones de todos ustedes. Desde el domingo de Ramos, el Jueves Santo a la Vigilia Pascual y el domingo de Resurrecion, fueron realmente una experiencia y encuentro con nuestro sufrimiento pero glorioso y resucitado! ¡Gracias! ¡Gracias! Gracias! FELICIDADES: Los neofitos siguientes recibieron bautismo, confirmacion y primera comunion – Cristian Badillo, Gelio Barrios, Keyli Gonzales, Nick Hood, Damian Llanos, Leonard Marino y Gabriela Sandoval.
