Weekly Reflection
Reflexión Semanal
Our Awesome God
Nuestro Formidable Dios
Today’s readings and prayers focus on the relationship
of God the Father, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. The Preface speaks of God “not in the unity of a single person,
but in a Trinity of one substance.” This feast comes immediately after Pentecost to celebrate the interaction of
the Father, Son and Holy Spirit in the salvation story. At
his Ascension, Jesus promised that his love would become manifest to the disciples in ways not previously
realized. Jesus explains this in the Gospel, “When he
comes, the Spirit of truth, he will guide you to all truth«.
He will glorify me, because he will take from what is
mine and declare it to you.” The Communion Antiphon
taken from Saint Paul’s letter to the Galatians 4:6 proclaims, “Since you are children of God, God has sent
into your hearts the Spirit of his Son, the Spirit who
cries out: Abba, Father.” These words signal the completion of Jesus’ sacrifice and the restoration of our relationship with His Father. The Holy Spirit has been
sent to open our hearts and minds to this understanding. The gifts and fruits that the Holy Spirit bestows help
us build relationships with God and one another that are
based on the love the Father
and Son have for each other.
This love must be the basis
for all our relationships which
are guided by the two great
commandments that Jesus
taught us: “Thou shall love
thy Lord thy God with thy
whole heart, and with thy
whole soul, and with thy
whole mind.” And “Thou shall
love thy neighbor as thyself.”
All our interactions with God
and one another should reflect this love, this Spirit.
Therefore, we aspire to live
so as to praise our God and
proclaim his wonderful name
throughout the earth.
Las lecturas y oraciones de hoy se centran en la relación de Dios Padre, Jesús y el Espíritu Santo. El prefacio habla de Dios "no en la unidad de una sola persona,
pero en una Trinidad de una sola sustancia". La solemnidad de la Santísima Trinidad llega inmediatamente
después de Pentecostés, en el cual se celebra la relación entre el Padre, el Hijo y el Espíritu Santo en la historia de la salvación. En su ascensión, Jesús prometió
que su amor se manifestaría a los discípulos en formas
que no comprenderían y así lo explica en el Evangelio:
"Pero cuando venga el Espíritu de la verdad, él los irá
guiando hasta la verdad plena.... Él me glorificará, porque primero recibirá de mí lo que les vaya comunicando". La Antífona de la Comunión tomada de la carta de
San Pablo a los Gálatas 4:6 proclama: "Ya que somos
hijos de Dios, Dios ha enviado a nuestros corazones el
Espíritu de su Hijo, el Espíritu que clama:. Abba, Padre".
Estas palabras son la señal de la realización del sacrificio de Jesús y la restauración de nuestra relación con el
Padre; el Espíritu Santo ha sido enviado para abrir
nuestros corazones y mentes a este entendimiento. Los
dones y los frutos que el Espíritu Santo otorga nos ayudan a construir la
relación con Dios y con los demás; la
cual está basada en el amor que el
Padre y el Hijo se tienen el uno por el
otro. Este amor debe ser la base de
todas nuestras relaciones, las cuales
son guiadas por los dos grandes mandamientos que Jesús nos enseñó:
"Amarás al Señor tu Dios con todo tu
corazón, con toda tu alma, con toda tu
mente y con todas tus fuerzas" y
"Amarás a tu prójimo como a ti mismo".
Todas nuestras interacciones
con Dios y de unos con los otros debe
reflejar este amor, este Espíritu. Por
lo tanto, aspiramos a vivir para alabar
a nuestro Dios y proclamar sus maravilloso nombre por toda la tierra.

Our First Communion Begins
a Journey for Life
Our Lady of the Assumption School
Ask most Catholics and they can tell you all about their
First Communion experience. For many it is the happiest
and most enjoyable day for them and for their families. As second graders, we had reached the age of reason. We know right from wrong. More importantly, we
knew that we were receiving something special. It was
something more than bread and wine, and that was the
first step into the world of Mystery. We loved the attention, the new clothes, the ceremony, and the pictures. It
was a time of feeling holy, being close to Jesus and it
was a time of great innocence. Life was good and simple. We just were!
Many of our children will receive their First Communion in
the next few weeks and we want to celebrate this great
event and new relationship with them. The best way for
us to do this is to rediscover this Mystery for ourselves.
May it be a time for all of us to renew our own experience
of Jesus in the Eucharist. Jesus is the food who nourishes our spiritual and physical life for the journey that we
are all engaged. "We become who we receive", says St.
Augustine. Therefore, we are called and chosen to become the image of Christ for others in so many
ways. Jesus is not a mask that we wear but the life-blood
that energizes us. Ours is to live with the consciousness
of Jesus as we love God with all our heart and our neighbor as ourself. What a difference life holds for us if we
love, think, and envision the world around us with the
heart, heart, and the eyes of Christ. If this can happen,
then we are refreshed by our new life in Christ and every
day is an experience of Communion with the Body of
Christ.
May the Love of Christ fill us with Joy - Fr. Leon

Santa Clara Cemetery, 2370 No. H Street, Oxnard (far
