ubilee Year of Mercy
April 17, 2016 • Fourth Sunday of Easter
Good Shepherd Sunday:
World Day of Prayer for Vocations
This Sunday celebrates Jesus as “the Good
Shepherd.” When announcing this Jubilee Year
of Mercy, Pope Francis focused on Jesus’ “lost
sheep” parable in Luke. “[Who] among you,”
Jesus asks, “having a hundred sheep and
losing one of them would not leave the ninetynine in the desert and go after the lost one until
he finds it?” (Luke 15:4). A reasonable answer?
“No responsible shepherd who wants to keep the
job!” Yet Jesus considers one lost person supremely
important and suggests blaming the shepherd. The sheep
didn’t “go astray,” the shepherd “lost” it. Thus, “when he
does find it, he sets it on his shoulders with great joy” (15:5).
That tender image of Jesus adorns the simple cross Pope
Francis has always worn, the Good Shepherd gently carrying
the lost sheep home on his shoulders. During this Jubilee
Year of Mercy, may we, who once were lost ourselves but
now are found, join Jesus in seeking, finding, and gently
carrying home at least one precious lamb.

this Mothers’ Day to Fathers’ Day a special time to ask for your
support. Your change will help ALPHA continue to bring about
changes in the lives of the many people we help. ALPHA is about
strengthening families, one baby at a time!

EFLECTION OF THE WEEK
April 17, 2016
Fourth Sunday of Easter
There are two notions that need
to be taken on faith as they are
presented in the Gospel passage
where Jesus identifies himself
as the Good Shepherd. The first
mystery is that those who are
given the gift of faith to hear the
invitation Jesus presents, will
follow him. The second mystery
involves the unbreakable bond that
exists between the Shepherd and
the person who hears the invitation.
Once a person responds to the
invitation, he or she belongs
to God forever.
Reflection question:
Adults: Whom do you try to protect
as Christ protects you?
Children: Who helps you feel safe
and protected? Whom can you take
care of and help feel safe?

Old Mission School
The staff members
of Old Mission
School assist in
the experience of
schooling in which
faith, culture and life are brought
into harmony in the following ways:
• Students learn basic academic
skills and develop creative abilities.
• Students learn fundamental
social skills.
• Students learn to be disciplined
and productive citizens.
• Students belong to a vital Catholic
community where Christian
compassion, values, and lifestyles
are shared.
• Students are prepared for active
participation in sacramental life.
• Students know Jesus, love him, and
become his followers.
We hope that the children’s deepest
dream will be to work with others
in the Spirit of Jesus to establish a
new world of justice, equality, and
love for all, a world in which no
one will be excluded.
Old Mission Catholic School is
currently accepting applications for
preschool through eighth grade.
Our entire school community is
dedicated to the development

“Be still and know that I am God”
Psalm 46:10
There is stillness in our days that

It is nice to have this down time
until the crowds of summer once
again visit our fair city.
We are in the midst of the
Communion season and have
many Communion sets, gifts and
books available. There are also
many of our own beautiful handmade Rosaries, bracelets other
related items. Our staff is happy to
help you in any way we can. If you

EL REBAÑO DEL PASTOR
En el arte cristiano, las primeras imágenes
de Jesucristo no fueron de su crucifixión ni de su
resurrección. Fueron de Jesús como el Buen Pastor, tal
como nos lo presentan las lecturas de hoy. En el pasaje
evangélico Jesús se nos revela como el pastor y sus
seguidores son su “rebaño”.
La primera y la segunda lecturas nos cuentan un
poco más sobre el rebaño. El pasaje de los Hechos nos
asegura que tanto los judíos como los gentiles están
llamados a seguir a Jesús. Es la fe, no el derecho de
cuna, lo que nos permite pertenecer a la comunidad
de creyentes. En el pasaje del libro del Apocalipsis,
aprendemos que el rebaño que le sigue a este
Cordero de Dios será también
purificado en su sangre.
Tendrán que sobrellevar un
tiempo de prueba antes de
gozar de la vida eterna. Estén
seguros de la promesa, nos
avisa, pero sepan que hay un
precio que pagar.

A
ño Jubilar de la Misericordia
17 de abril de 2016 • Cuarto Domingo de Pascua
Domingo del Buen Pastor: Jornada Mundial
de Oración por las Vocaciones
Este domingo se celebra a Jesús como “el
Buen Pastor”. Cuando el Papa Francisco
anunció este Año Jubilar de la Misericordia,
se meditó a Jesús en la parábola de Lucas
de “la oveja perdida”, “¿Qué hombre de
ustedes, si tiene cien ovejas y una de ellas
se pierde, no deja las noventa y nueve en
el campo y va tras la que está perdida hasta
que la encuentra?” (Lucas 15:4). ¿Cuál sería
una posible respuesta? “Un pastor responsable
que quiera cuidar su buen nombre”. Sin embargo,
Jesúsconsidera a una persona que esté perdida, sumamente
importante y sugiere culpar al pastor. La oveja no “se
extravió”, el pastor la “perdió”. Así que “al encontrarla, la
pone sobre sus hombros, gozoso” (15:5). Esa es la imagen
compasiva de la cruz pectoral que usa el Papa Francisco, el
Buen Pastor llevando sobre sus hombres a la oveja perdida
a casa. Durante este Año Jubilar de la Misericordia, que
nosotros, que también nosotros estuvimos perdidos pero
fuimos encontrados, unámonos a Jesús a buscan encontrar y
llevar con cuidado a casa al menos a una oveja perdida.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE
El 25 de abril la Iglesia conmemora a Pedro de
Betancur (1626–1667). Originalmente de las Islas Canarias,
a la edad de 24, se trasladó a Cuba. En 1651 llegó a
Guatemala con la ambición de predicar a Cristo. Esto lo
hizo, no como sacerdote ni religioso. El fue como laico,
reconociendo su deber bautismal de evangelizar.
En 1655 ingresó en la Orden Seglar Franciscana y
como laico quiso poner en práctica la espiritualidad
franciscana, ayudando a los pobres. Con su propio pan o
casa el alimentaba al hambriento y amparaba al indigente.
A todos recordaba la necesidad de la salvación y en la
simplicidad de su mensaje derretía el egoísmo de los
ricos. Les abría el corazón enseñándoles a compartir con
los más pequeños de sus hermanos y hermanas.
Eventualmente su nobleza de espíritu atrajo a
hombres y mujeres que deseaban compartir su apostolado
y fundó la Orden Betlehemita. También fundó la primera
escuela de niños en Centro América convirtiéndose en el
alfabetizador de Guatemala. Así dio ejemplo de lo que la
Iglesia debe hacer por el pobre y marginado.
