... On Divine Mercy Sunday a plenary indulgence

granted to the faithful who celebrate the Sacrament
of Reconciliation, participate in the Eucharist, and
pray for the intentions of our Holy Father. These are
all met by a recent Reconciliation, and by participating in Mass today (12).
... It was nice to see so many gather for our Easter
celebrations, particularly on Easter Sunday (5).
Both the 9:00am and 10:30am Masses were

heart of many lives. Alleluia!

Sunday, a total of $36,365.00 was contributed in
support of our parish ministry, with 535 families
using parish envelopes. Mighty!
... ‘Thank You’ to Liz Beiner, Deacon Bob, and our
entire RCIA team and Sponsors, for your great
leadership and ministry on behalf of our parish
family! Ever faithful!
... Also celebrating their Profession of Faith and
sacraments with us at the Easter Vigil were Ryan
West, and two of our teenagers, Branden Schwaebe
and Christina Indudhara. Congratulations!
... Our musicians, cantors and choirs serve us so
generously and faithfully! ‘Thank you’ for all
your preparation and presentation, and sharing
your talents, all under the direction of Julie
Marner! You inspire us! You do us so proud!
... Our Altar Society thoroughly cleaned the
church for Easter, planned, prepared, and set the
beautiful floral arrangements, and great environment, with Matt and Adan on stand-by. Thank you!
... ‘Happy Birthday’ to Father Brian today (12)!
It’s sixty something and rhymes with ‘Brian’!

UN SOLO CORAZÓN Y
UNA SOLA ALMA
Al leer sobre la fe de las primeras comunidades
de creyentes puede ser fuente de gran inspiración
para los que han sido cristianos por largo tiempo,
como también para los que acaban de ser bautizados.
¿Te puedes imaginar a gente de hoy que “tiene
un solo corazón y una sola alma” igual que la
primera comunidad de creyentes? La primera carta
de san Juan que leemos hoy es la clave que nos dice
cómo podemos lograrlo.
Si guardamos los mandamientos de Dios y si
amamos a todos los hijos de Dios parece ser la base
de poder tener un
“un solo corazón
y una sola alma”.
Vivimos en un
mundo que
recalca las
diferencias –ya
sean entre
religiones, razas,
géneros y clases.
Hoy se nos pide que nos enfoquemos en lo que
tenemos en común en este frágil planeta que
ocupamos.

“ SEÑOR MIO Y DIOS MIO ”
En tiempos pasados, cuando la misa era en latín, no
teníamos la oportunidad de escuchar en nuestro propio
idioma las bellas
palabras que Cristo
pronunció durante la
Última Cena y que el
sacerdote repite durante
la Consagración: “Esto
es mi cuerpo”… “Esta
es mi sangre”. Por tal
razón los monaguillos
sonaban unas
campanitas indicando
que algo importante
estaba pasando. En ese momento los fieles levantábamos
la cabeza para ver el pan convertido en cuerpo y el vino
convertido en sangre. Lamentablemente el sacerdote nos
daba la espalda y no podíamos ver lo que ocurría sobre el
altar. Sin embargo, respondíamos con las palabras del
apóstol Tomás: “Señor mío y Dios mío”.
Estas palabras reconocen y adoran la presencia de Jesús
en el pan y el vino. A este momento se le consideraba el
más importante de la misa. No obstante, el Concilio
Vaticano II vino a enseñarnos que este es el momento
cumbre, junto con toda la Plegaria Eucarística, pues toda la
misa es igualmente importante, excepto que durante la
Plegaria Eucarística alcanzamos el punto más alto de la
celebración. Por esa razón ya no hay campanita, pues ahora
escuchamos todo en nuestro propio idioma, así como los
discípulos las escucharon de Cristo, en su propio idioma.
BAUTISMOS
Los bautismos en Abril
serán el domingo (26)
Les pedimos que elijan
padrinos que pueden
confesarse y comulgar y que
sean activos en la iglesia
También necesitan traer una copia del acta de

niños, por favor llamen a la oficina al 760-436-4366,
para anotarlos.
