Divine Mercy is something that we all should continuously be asking of God, not just for us as individuals, but especially for us as the fallen and broken humanity. Of course, the main reason for us to ask for mercy should be our love for God and our desire to live eternally in heaven in God's presence. We know that "the Lord is kind and merciful", however we also know that sooner or later God will judge our deeds. So it is wise to be in the grace of God and to use all the help there is for us and our salvation. Embracing the devotion to the divine mercy is a way for us to be transformed in the mercy of God. This year at St. Theresa for the first time, we celebrate the feast day of Divine Mercy on this Sunday following Easter in a bilingual Mass. The Divine Mercy message is the key revelation that God’s mercy is unfailing and infinite. We, the faithful, are asked to be forgiving and merciful toward all, to completely trust in God and to prayerfully request God’s mercy for us and the entire world. Sister Maria Faustina of the Blessed Sacrament, born Helen Kowalska on April 25, 1905, in the vicinity of Lodz, Poland, joined the Congregation of the Sisters of our Lady of Mercy at the age of 19, and became the first person to be elevated to sainthood in the new millennium (April 30, 2000) by Pope John Paul, II. Sr. Maria Faustina began keeping a diary of her mystical experiences and visions at the request of her spiritual director in 1934. She died in 1938 as a result of tuberculosis and her diary (titled ‘Divine Mercy in My Soul’) was published and translated into many different languages. This diary recorded the appearance of Christ in a vision to St. Faustina in 1931. According to her diary entry, He commanded her to have a painting made of this vision along with the motto ’Jesus, I trust in you.’ Sister Maria Faustina personally supervised the initial painting of her vision. In the Divine Mercy image, Jesus is shown robed in white with His hands and feet displaying the nail marks of the Crucifixion. His right hand is raised in a blessing gesture and His left hand points to His heart with two rays of light, one red and one white, shining forth from it. The red ray recalls the blood and the white ray the water that flowed when His heart was pierced with a sword during His crucifixion. The two rays represent Christ’s inexhaustible stream of Divine Mercy for all who trust in Him. During the Second World War, 1939-1945, devotion to the Divine Mercy Chaplet gained popularity in Poland and Lithuania, eventually reaching the United States. Though Sr. Faustina’s writings were temporarily banned from 1958 until 1978 while the Vatican officials reviewed them in light of the doctrine of the Church, the ban was lifted in April 1978 with the assistance of then Archbishop of Kracow, Poland, Carol Wojtyla, who later that same year became Pope John Paul II. The established prayer of the Divine Mercy Chaplet can be found online at ‘Divine Mercy Chaplet-Online Prayer’ and can be prayed using ordinary rosary beads. I encourage everyone to incorporate the prayer of the Divine Mercy Chaplet imploring mercy on us and on the whole world into their prayer life as often as possible. May God Bless us and have mercy on us and on the whole world, Fr. Fernando Molina-Restrepo, Pastor APRIL 11, 2010 / 11 DE ABRIL DE 2010 PENSAMIENTOS Y MEDITACIONES La misericordia divina es algo que nosotros debemos continuamente pedir a Dios, no solo individualmente, pero especialmente para nosotros que pecamos y por la humanidad caída. Por supuesto, la razón principal para que nosotros pidamos misericordia debe ser nuestro amor a Dios y nuestro deseo de vivir eternamente en el cielo en la presencia de Dios. Sabemos que el “Señor es bueno y misericordioso” no obstante también sabemos que tarde que temprano seremos juzgados por nuestros hechos. Por eso es sabio estar en la gracia de Dios y usar toda la ayuda que tengamos allí para nosotros y nuestra salvación. Abrazar la devoción a la divina misericordia es una manera de ser transformados en la misericordia de Dios. Este año por primera vez en Santa Teresita, celebraremos la festividad de la Divina Misericordia en el Domingo siguiente al de la Pascua con una misa bilingüe. El mensaje de la Divina Misericordia es la llave reveladora que la misericordia de Dios es infinita e inagotable. Nosotros, los fieles, somos llamados a perdonar y ser misericordiosos hacia todos, tener confianza absoluta en Dios y a orar profundamente pidiendo a Dios misericordia por nosotros y por el mundo entero. La hermana María Faustina del Santísimo Sacramento, nació bajo el nombre de Helen Kowalska en Abril 25 de 1905 en la ciudad de Lodz, Polonia y se unió a la Congregación de las Hermanas de Nuestra Señora de la Misericordia a la edad de 19 años y fue la primera persona santificada en el nuevo milenio (Abril 30, 2000) por el Papa Juan Pablo II. La Hermana María Faustina comenzó a escribir sus experiencias místicas y visiones por solicitud de su director espiritual en 1934. Ella murió en 1938 como resultado de una tuberculosis y su diario (titulado “Divina Misericordia en Mi Alma”) fue publicado y traducido a diferentes lenguas. Este diario detalla la aparición de Cristo en una visión a la hermana Faustina en 1931. De acuerdo con las notas de su diario, El le ordenó a ella que pidiera se pintase un cuadro con la imagen de esa visión y que tuviera la frase “Jesús, en Ti confío” La hermana María Faustina personalmente supervisó la pintura inicial de su visión. En la imagen de la Divina Misericordia, Jesús es presentado con un traje blanco con Sus manos y pies mostrando las marcas de los clavos de la Crucifixión. Su mano derecha esta levantada en un gesto de bendición y Su mano izquierda señala a Su corazón con dos rayos de luz, uno rojo y el otro blanco, brillando de adentro hacia fuera. El rayo rojo simboliza la sangre de cristo y el rayo blanco el agua que fluyó de su corazón cuando fue punzado con una espada durante Su crucifixión. Los dos rayos representan la fuente inagotable de Misericordia Divina para nosotros quienes confiamos en El. Durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, 1939-1945, la devoción a la coronilla de la Divina Misericordia ganó popularidad en Polonia y Lituania, eventualmente llegó a los Estados Unidos. Los pensamientos escritos de Sor Faustina fueron temporalmente prohibidos desde 1958 hasta 1978 mientras los oficiales del Vaticano los revisaban bajo la luz de la doctrina de la iglesia, la prohibición fue levantada en Abril de 1978 con la ayuda del Arzobispo de Cracovia, Polonia, Carol Wajtyla, quien mas tarde durante el mismo año se convertiría en el Papa Juan Pablo II. El establecimiento de la oración de la coronilla de la Divina Misericordia puede ser encontrada en la página del correo electrónico “Coronilla de la Divina Misericordia” y puede ser rezada utilizando las cuentas de un rosario ordinario. Yo los invito a cada uno de ustedes a incorporar la oración de la Coronilla de la Divina Misericordia implorando misericordia por nosotros y por todo el mundo en sus vidas tan frecuentemente como sea posible. Que Dios los bendiga y tenga misericordia de nosotros y del mundo entero, Padre Fernando Molina Restrepo, Párroco.

HE IS RISEN! ALÉGRENSÉ! ¡HA RESUCITADO! “Blessed are they who have not seen and yet believed,” Jesus says in today’s Gospel. For those who have not seen to believe, however, we must be good stewards of our faith, living it joyfully and sharing it generously. Then, in our time too, “men and women in great numbers” will be “added to the Lord.” “¡Felices los que no han visto, pero creen!”, dice Jesús en el Evangelio de hoy. Sin embargo, para que crean los que no han visto, tenemos que ser buenos administradores de nuestra fe, viviéndola alegremente y compartiéndola generosamente. Entonces, en nuestro tiempo también, “cantidad de hombres y mujeres llegaran a creer en el Señor, aumentando así su número.” THANK YOU FOR YOUR GENEROSITY! GRACIAS FOR SU GENEROSIDAD! Thank you so very much to all the generous parishioners who provided the multiple bags of individually wrapped candy to fill the hundreds of Easter eggs we used for the children’s Easter Egg Hunt on Easter Sunday! We could not have had a successful event without your kindness and generosity! Thank You! And a special Thank you to all those who helped to stuff the many eggs with the candy! You are so very much appreciated! Muchas gracias a todos los feligreses que de una forma tan generosa han colaborado con los dulces para llenar cientos de huevos para el Domingo de Pascua. Gracias especialmente a todos los que ayudaron a llenar los huevos con los dulces! Sin su amable y generosa ayuda este evento no hubiera tenido exito! Estamos muy agradecidos! ATTENTION: SINGLES OF ST. THERESA/ATENCIÓN: SOLTEROS DE ST. TERESITA SINGLES OF ST. THERESA’S (SST) is a Singles Ministry being formed within our parish, welcoming all single, widowed, divorced or separated members of our Parish Community over the age of 45. SST is still the planning stages, but our plan is to offer a faith-based ministry which would involve meeting monthly or quarterly on a weekend afternoon or evening on the church premises for fellowship, encouraging a “circle of friends” to be formed among the unmarried members of our parish. In addition to meeting to encourage fellowship as a Ministry, we hope to eventually offer speakers discussing various topics of interest and to offer some activities which singles with children could participate in as well. At some point hope to include Catholic singles of our neighboring parishes and have smaller age-specific groups within the Singles Ministry. Because many of our church activities are family-oriented, a single person within our parish can easily feel isolated and alone. We welcome you and hope you will join our Singles Ministry here at St. Theresa's. Please help us form a new circle of single friends within our parish. Please contact Diana at 770-949-0196 or [email protected] if you are interested in joining SST. Solteros de St. Teresita(SST) El Ministerio de Solteros ha sido formado dentro de nuestra Iglesia, todos los miembros de nuestra comunidad parroquial son bienvenidos, solteros, divorciados y separados de 45 años en adelante. SST todavía está en proyecto, pero nuestro plan es ofrecerles un ministerio basado en la fe, en el cual se reunirán una vez al més o cada tres meses, los fines de semana en la tarde, animándolos a ser formados como “círculo de amigos” entre los miembros de la parroquia no-casados. Eventualmente se discutirán varios temas de interes y algunas actividades en la cual los solteros con niños puedan participar. De alguna manera se espera incluir a solteros católicos de nuestras parroquias vecinas y hacer pequeños grupos de edades específicas dentro del mismo Ministerio. Porque muchas de nuestras actividades en la parroquia son orientadas a la familia, un soltero/a dentro de nuestra parroquia puede fácilmente sentirse aislado o solo. Le damos la bienvenida y esperamos que se una a nuestro Ministerio de Solteros de St. Teresita. Por favor ayudanos a formar un Nuevo Círculo de amigos solteros dentro de nuestra parroquia.
