Light Our Way
Lighthouse CD Spotlight
How do you explain the Holy Trinity to a child?
Fan or Follower?
In this talk, Jeff Cavins shares how he has come to see that
Jesus wants us to surrender every bit of our own comfort to
follow Him. There are many fans of Jesus in this world, but we
are called to be His disciples.
I've heard of a few ways to describe the Trinity so a child can
grasp the basic idea that God is three persons with one nature.
1. Water, ice, steam. All three are the same substance, but
function differently from each other. Water is fluid while ice
is hard and steam is a vapor, but they're all the same thing.
2. An egg: It has a shell, a yolk, and the white, but all three
produce the same thing--a chicken. The shell protects the
growing embryo, the yolk feeds the developing bird, and the
white is what the chick is
formed from.
3. The 3 leaf clover that
St. Patrick used works, too.
All 3 leafs come from the
same stem and are the
same plant, etc.
Information from www.Catholic.com
As a young adult, Jeff left
the Catholic Church and
became a Protestant Pastor
for 12 years. After returning
to the Catholic Church, he
became a nationally known
speaker who has helped
thousands come to a clearer
understanding of Scripture
and our Faith.
CD’s are available in the
Gathering Space for $3.00 each.
Reflecting on God’s Word
When I was much younger, I used to think that God was totally invisible, not to be experienced as the people in the bible did. After
all, they heard God's voice in the fiery cloud; they saw the waters parted so they could pass through--all the things that Moses talks
about in the first reading. But then I ask myself, do I want my faith to be based on special effects? Or do I want to trust Jesus, who
told Thomas, "Blessed are they who have not seen and have believed." (Jn 20:29)
Jesus was referring to his resurrection appearances, but it also applies to the Holy Trinity. When we see a newborn child, she can
remind us of God the Father creating the earth and all living things. When we see the cross, we recall Jesus saving death and
resurrection. When we share our faith with someone, we know that it is the Holy Spirit who gives us the words to speak and the
courage to speak them. Seeing God's work around us, we can still experience God in Three Persons.
The three are not just equal parts of God, one-third of God each. Three infinite Persons are united in one substance or being, so the
love they have for each other is infinite. Everything God does is done by all three Persons. So you could say that everything the
Trinity does, is done out of love.

REFLEXION
Hoy, Domingo de la Trinidad, leemos el final (?) del evangelio
de Mateo; las palabras suenan solemnes y rotundas, definitivas,
en la boca de Jesús. Aunque no refleja un dato histórico que Jesús
hablase de esa manera, sí es expresión de las primerísimas
reflexiones de los cristianos que estuvieron más cerca de él.
Los once aparecen perfectamente humanos, perfectamente reales,
sin inciensos y falsas glorias. Van al encuentro de Jesús, como
debe hacer todo discípulo, pero también tienen sus dudas, sus
vacilaciones. ¿Qué cristiano no se ve reflejado en ese claroscuro?
También nosotros caminamos hacia él, subiendo el monte, pero
tampoco somos perfectos y necesitamos que también él se
acerque a nosotros.
Jesús comienza recordando su resurrección con una frase que
suena mucho a cita del Antiguo Testamento. «Todo poder en
cielo y tierra» es el resultado de la entrega de amor que ha
protagonizado a través de la cruz. Aquí, en el amor entregado, ha
comenzado todo, éste será el punto de partida, el modelo a seguir,
el pentagrama sobre el que la comunidad cristiana tendrá que
interpretar su partitura.
A continuación da su mandato: «Id y haced discípulos». Esta
breve frase de Mateo nos define como Iglesia. Si nos
preguntamos qué debemos hacer, aquí tenemos la respuesta:
A guardar lo que él nos ha mandado. La relación con Jesús no
es intelectual (aunque también nos obliga a hacer funcionar la
neuronas, que para eso nos las regaló, no se trata de tragarse
cualquier idea sin pensarla), sino personal, experiencial. Se trata
de aceptarle como guía del camino para comprender nuestra vida
y a nosotros mismos con sus criterios tan distintos a los de la
mayoría de la sociedad.
Por último, después del mandato tan exigente y difícil, nos da la
garantía de su presencia con una frase majestuosa y grave. Vale
la pena repetirla despacio, personalizarla y pensar que nos la dice
Jesús personalmente a cada uno de nosotros, que te la dice a ti de
forma muy especial: «Yo estoy contigo siempre, todos los días,
hasta el fin de los tiempos».
La promesa de Jesús cae con rotundidad y fuerza sobre el
corazón como el sello y la firma sobre un documento oficial.
Tenemos la garantía, tenemos dónde acudir. Ahora nos toca a
nosotros hacer que su presencia sea luminosa en el mundo entero.
No es el “final” del evangelio, no puede serlo, es tan sólo el
principio de una nueva historia de amor de Dios con la
humanidad.
Por: www.bibliayvida.com
Ir. Movernos, desplazarnos, salir en busca de todos aquellos que
necesiten de Dios y de su mensaje de amor y liberación. Todos lo
necesitamos, pero no todos son capaces de darse cuenta. Es por
eso que los pobres, los despreciados, los marginados fueron lo
que mejor comprendieron a Jesús, al tiempo que los ricos, los
acomodados, los que se creían sabios, lo rechazaron.
Hacer discípulos. No pide licenciados, ni especialistas; tan sólo
pide discípulos, que sean capaces de seguir detrás de él por el
camino que nos marcó.

seeks qualified host families to provide a safe and nurturing
home environment for international high school students
attending our school from abroad. All families are expected to
provide room, board, and transportation to and from school
activities. Host families should be enthusiastic about cultural
diversity and be willing to support the students in academic and
co-curricular activities when needed. International students pay
for their tuition, health insurance, and spending money. All
students are proficient English language speakers and will
travel home during the Christmas break.
Participating families may be offered compensation of up
to $1,000 per month for 10 months to help cover the costs of
room and board. St. Francis High School will also provide you
with a dedicated support staff, host family training, meetings,
and group activities for you and your students to connect with
other participating families.
If you would like to take advantage of the unique
opportunity to make a difference in a young person’s life,
please request more information and an application from
