Then you shall know I am the LORD, O my people!. (Ezekiel 37:12-14) Psalm — With the Lord there is mercy and fullness of redemption. (Psalm 130) Second Reading — If Christ is in you, the spirit is alive even if the body is dead because of sin. (Romans 8:8-11) Gospel — Lazarus, dead for four days, came out of his tomb when Jesus called his name. Many of those who had seen what had happened began to believe in Jesus. (John 11:1-45 [3-7, 17, 20-27, 33b-45]) READINGS FOR THE WEEK Monday: Dn 13:1-9, 15-17, 19-30, 33-62 [41c-62]; Jn 8:1-11 Tuesday: Nm 21:4-9; Jn 8:21-30 Wednesday: Dn 3:14-20, 91-92, 95; Jn 8:31-42 Thursday: Gn 17:3-9; Jn 8:51-59 Friday: Jer 20:10-13; Jn 10:31-42 Saturday: Ez 37:21-28; Jn 11:45-56 Sunday: Mt 21:1-11 (procession); Is 50:4-7; Ps 22; Phil 2:6-11; Mt 26:14 — 27:66 [27:11-54] COME OUT OF YOUR GRAVES!! Jesus rejoices with those who gladly believe in Him, deep down, as the resurrection and the life. • One of the most consoling prophecies in the Hebrew Testament is Ezekiel’s vision of dry bones. God opens the graves of the unfaithful Israelites and breathes His merciful spirit into them. “And you shall live,” God promises. (Ezekiel 37, 12-14) Date Activities Place • Folk-rock singer Mark Heard caught the spirit of this life-giving vision when he sang of the “miraculous circumstance / Where the blind ones see and the dry bones dance.” • Jesus surely rejoices with those who “Come out!” of their graves of fear and doubt, who dance with hope despite their difficulties, and who believe in Him, deep down, as their resurrection and their life.

Page Four April 6, 2014 Fifth Sunday of Lent Out of the depths I cry to you, o Lord; Lord, hear my voice! — Psalm 130:1 Sunday’s Message John 11: 1 - 45 Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out”. The dead man came out, tied hand and foot with burial bands, and his face wrapped in a cloth. “Untie him and let him go.” Resurrection is an attitude, a perspective that finds hope in the hardest times and uncovers life among the devastated and broken, that reveals light in the darkest night. To each one of us belongs the work of resurrecttion: to bring the life and love of God into the most everyday situations. COME FORTH!! Of all our human limitations and weaknesses, the most important, most sorrowful and final is death. Many aspects of it frighten us: a terminal illness, an unexpected demise, like an interrupted melody we have only begun to enjoy, Pastor’s Notes the fear of an unknown world from which no one has ever returned. In the Gospel of John, 11:1-45, we find that Lazarus, brother of Martha and Mary, is brought back to life by the powerful command of Christ: "Lazarus, come forth!" Lazarus, who had been dead 4 days, emerges from his tomb and begins a new life: he breathes, speaks, and enjoys living with a greater intensity and gratitude. This miracle of Christ has many applications for us. Jesus, as God, is a God of the living, not of the dead. For Him we are all "the living", or better said, called to live fully. God does not wish the death of anyone. The best manifestation of the glory and the will of God is "a human being fully alive". Therefore, the great significance of the resurrection of Lazarus is not only that he returns to life for a few more years, but that Christ tells us "whoever believes in Me, although he be dead, will live and There are so many people who whoever is alive and believes in Me will not die forever." Jesus are waiting for the hope and today essentially defines Himself as "the Resurrection and the healing of the Easter promise: Life". to rise from despair, cynicism We can comprehend that He speaks of a resurrection that is not and alienation to joy, hope and simply a return to life, but rather the conquest of Death, which He a sense of belonging. accomplished after His own death. We know that like Christ, we have to suffer and die, to pass through the dark night of God's As Jesus instructs Lazarus’ apparent abandonment. But we never lose hope and a strong faith friends to roll away the stone that what is absolutely certain is eternal life. and free Lazarus from his tomb, Meanwhile, let us respond to the voice of Christ, who calls us by Jesus calls us to the work of name and says: "N.___, come forth"…from your tomb of egotism Easter healing and transformaand sin; come forth from the tomb of your fears, doubts, hatreds, tion, the work of freeing one indifference....Come forth and begin to live fully”.

Page Five April 6, 2014 Quinto Domingo de Cuaresma Desde el abismo de mis pecados clamo a ti; Señor, escucha mi clamor. — Salmo 130(129):1 Mensaje del Domingo ¡SAL FUERA!!! Juan 11, 1– 45 De todas nuestras limitaciones y debilidades la más importante, la más dolorosa y la definitiva Jesús gritó con voz fuerte: es la muerte. Nos asustan muchas cosas entorno “Lázaro, sal fuera”. Lázaro a ella: la enfermedad que precede, la muerte en si salió fuera, atado de pies y como final inesperado de una melodía que apenas manos, envuelto en la mortaja y Comentarios hemos comenzado a disfrutar y nos da miedo el con el sudario en su cara. del Párroco pensar en un mundo desconocido del que nadie ha “Desatadle y dejadle caminar”. regresado. En el Evangelio de Juan 11, 1-45 vemos que Lázaro, La resurrección es también una hermano de Marta y María, vuelve a la vida ante el grito poderoso de actitud, un punto de referencia Cristo: ¡LAZARO, SAL FUERA!!! que da perspectiva de esperanza en momentos difíciles. También Lázaro, que llevaba muerto cuatro días, sale de la tumba y comienza a la resurrección devuelve la vida caminar de nuevo: respira, conversa, disfruta de la vida con nueva a los que están cansados y intensidad y mayor gratitud. Este milagro de Cristo tiene muchas destruidos. Es como una clara aplicaciones para nosotros. El Dios de Jesús es siempre un Dios de luz en la noche más oscura. A vivos, no de muertos, pues para El, todos estamos vivos o mejor todos nos toca llevar adelante el estamos llamados a vivir plenamente. Dios no quiere la muerte de trabajo de resucitar, es decir, nadie. La máxima manifestación de la gloria y la voluntad de Dios traer la vida y el amor de Dios en es que “vivamos plenamente”. casi todas las situaciones de la Por eso el gran significado de la resurrección de Lázaro no es sólo que vida. él vuelve a la vida por unos años más, sino que Cristo nos dice que Hay muchas personas que están “quien cree en Mi, aunque haya muerto, vivirá y todo el que vive y buscando la esperanza y la cree en Mi no morirá para siempre”. Hoy Jesús se define curación que nos trae la promesa esencialmente como “Resurrección y Vida”. de la Pascua: levantarnos Podemos entender que El habla de una resurrección que no es una victoriosos sobre el cinismo, la vuelta a la vida, sino la conquista de la vida definitiva, que El logra desesperación y el aislamiento, después de su muerte. Sabemos que tenemos que pasar, lo mismo que para recuperar la alegría, la Cristo, por el silencio de Dios, por la noche oscura, por el sufrimiento esperanza y el sentido de y por la muerte, pero siempre con la esperanza y la fe firme de que lo pertenencia. definitivo es una vida eterna y para siempre. Jesús mandó a los amigos de Lázaro correr la piedra y dejar que Lázaro saliera fuera de la tumba, así también hoy nos llama a realizar el trabajo de transformación y curación de la Pascua, es la tarea de vernos libres de nuestros sepulcros de desesperanza, aislamiento y miedo. Mientras tanto respondamos a la voz de Cristo que nos llama por nuestro nombre y nos dice: N_____. sal fuera de la tumba de tu egoísmo y pecado, sal fuera del sepulcro de tu orgullo y arrogancia, sal fuera de la tumba de tus miedos, dudas, indiferencias, odios y rutinas… Sal fuera y comienza a vivir de nuevo y plenamente; pues Dios es fiel a sus promesas, está en medio de ti, te ofrece su amor, quiere que renueves tu esperanza y confíes más en El.

April 6, 2014 LAZARO, SAL FUERA Estamos ante un momento culminante: es la hora de la gloria de Dios y de su Enviado. Todos los días dormimos y no hablamos de estar muertos. Jesús nos dice que nunca estaremos muertos. Lo dice el Enviado de Dios, y su palabra es absoluta: “Si tienes fe, verás la gloria de Dios” “Si crees en mi, vivirás para siempre” “Sal de tu sepulcro, ¡Sal fuera, Lázaro!” VIVE EN PAZ VIACRUCIS Es una forma de recordar con amor y agradecimiento lo mucho que Jesús sufrió por nosotros para salvarnos del pecado. Durante la Cuaresma tenemos un Viacrucis en Español, los viernes a las 5:00 P.M. en la iglesia. Todos están invitados. ¡LEVANTATE Y ANDA!! Del salón en el ángulo oscuro de su dueña tal vez olvidada, silenciosa y cubierta de polvo veíase el arpa. ¡Cuanta nota dormía en sus cuerdas como el pájaro duerme en las ramas esperando la mano de nieve que sabe arrancarlas! ¡Ay! pensé ¡cuantas veces el genio así duerme en el fondo del alma, y una voz, como Lázaro, espera que le diga: “¡Levántate y anda!” Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer (1836-1870) Rima VII No mires al futuro agobiado de qué pasará mañana. El mismo Padre bueno que cuidó hoy de ti, también cuidará de ti mañana y cada día. Puede que él te proteja del dolor o que te dé suficiente fortaleza para sobrellevarlo. Por tanto, vive en paz, alejando de tí toda ansiedad o cualquier otra tonta imaginación.
