Our mission is that we are all working toward the fulfillment of Christ’s prayer to the Father, that we all may be one in Him, as He is one with the Father.
We, who have been fully initiated into His Mystical Body, the Church, share in His mission, becoming true Disciples, bringing the Good News to all through
celebrating the wondrous gifts of God, proclaiming the message in fellowship with each other and being of service to all our brothers and sisters in need,
until He comes again in glory.

Reflecting on God’s Word
In the modern world, there is a rush to attain new
things; everything is advertised as new, renovated, and
different. On the other hand, few things are permanent;
people move, change their home, job, activities, and even
their friends. Perhaps we have become accustomed to the
fact that people we live with may often depart toward new
horizons and this leaves us with a sort of nostalgia or
longing for what was, for the time past that was better. We
want new things, but we also want to keep what we had in
the past. The people who go away always leave something
behind; some leave us material keepsakes, while others
want us to care for something left behind, which may even
be an inheritance; but they also leave a void.
Jesus departed after his death, leaving a void in the
hearts of his friends that only God could fill; but he also
left a mandate and a mission that should not only change
our life, it will help us build a new world created by God
through the death and resurrection of Christ: “Behold I
make all things new.” The mandate of Jesus, which could
revolutionize the world, is to love one another. This is not a
love that consists of pretty sentiments, nor is it just directed
toward the people we like; it’s a different type of love that
dares to forgive, to overcome difficulties, seeks the good in
others, even at the cost of self sacrifice; this is the love that
distinguishes this new city of God.
Today Jesus is calling us to a love like he does, to love
God and love others as God loves them. Easter is a fitting
time to remember the Lord’s new commandment, because
there is no greater symbol of love than Easter; it is a call to
joy with love as its source.

The Embolism
Following the words, “deliver us from every evil,” the
presider voices a prayer that begins, “Deliver us, Lord,
from every evil.” The prayer continues asking for freedom
from sin and anxiety, as we joyfully await in hope the
return of Jesus, the Christ. This part is called the embolism,
because it is a little part inserted into the regular flow of the
Our Father as we usually say it outside of liturgy.

From The Faith Community Nurse
April is National Stress Awareness Month:
Watch for signs of stress. When they occur, try to avoid the
cause or change how we react to stress. Some helpful tips:
• Do something that relaxes you such as: deep and slow
breathing, stretching exercises, yoga, a message,
meditation, listening to music, reading, a hot bath or
shower.
• Get a hobby or do something you enjoy.
• Learn to accept things that you cannot change
• Think positive.
• Set Limits. Learn to say no. Take one thing at a time.
• Get 8 hrs. of sleep at night.
• Eat a healthy diet that includes fruits, vegetables,
protein and whole grains. Limit Caffeine and sugar.
• Exercise regularly.
• Talk to family and friends about your problems
• Do not deal with stress in unhealthy ways such as
eating to much, not eating enough, using tobacco
products, drinking alcohol or using drugs.
• Get help from a professional if you need it.
Take time to unwind. It is healthy to relax, renew and
rejuvenate. Stress happens. Sometime it’s unavoidable
at times it is unbearable. Taking time for you is
necessary.

with love, understanding and not one ounce of judgment.
Please thank all your staff...what marvelous ladies...and
the priests showed such kindness and demonstrated what
Pope Francis wants Jesus's disciples to do...teach us that
God is MERCY and LOVE. I was blessed to have been in
the company of ten women who were open, honest and
caring. It was beyond my expectations. I know I was led
there. What a nearness I feel with God.

Intenciones de
Oración del Papa
Francisco para
Abril Intenciones para Oración general – Que las personas
puedan aprender a respetar la creación y cuidar de él
como un regalo de Dios.
Intención de Oración para la Evangelización- Para que
los cristianos perseguidos puedan sentir la presencia
consoladora del Señor resucitado y la solidaridad de toda
la Iglesia.
Reflexionemos sobre la Palabra de Dios
In nuestro mundo moderno, hay como una prisa por
conseguir cosas nuevas; todo se anuncia como nuevo,
renovado, distinto. Por otro lado, hay pocas cosas
permanentes; la gente cambia de lugar, de casa, de trabajo,
de actividad y hasta de amistades. Quizás nos
acostumbremos a que personas con las que hemos
convivido se vayan a otro lugar; y eso nos deja con una
especie de nostalgia por lo que ya pasó, por algún tiempo
pasado que fue mejor. Queremos cosas nuevas, pero
también queremos aferrarnos a lo que había. Con todo, la
gente que se va siempre nos deja algo; algunos nos dejan
un recuerdo material y otros nos encargan algo o incluso
podrían dejarnos una herencia; pero también nos dejan un
hueco.
Jesús también se va después de su muerte dejando un
hueco en el corazón de sus amigos que solo Dios puede
llenar; pero también deja un mandato y una misión, y eso nos
debe no solo cambiar la vida a nosotros, sino ayudar a
seguir construyendo ese mundo nuevo que hace Dios por la
muerte y resurrección de Cristo: “He aquí que yo hago
nuevas todas las cosas”. El mandato de Jesús, que podría
revolucionar el mundo, es el amor. No es un amor solamente de
sentimiento hermoso, ni solamente hacia quienes nos caen bien,
sino un amor distinto que se atreve a perdonar, que se atreve a
superar dificultades, que busca el bien de otros incluso a costa
del propio sacrificio; ese amor distingue esta nueva ciudad de
Dios.
Hoy Jesús nos está llamando a amar como él lo hace, a amar
a Dios y a los demás así como Dios nos ama. La Pascua es el
tiempo perfecto para recordar el nuevo mandamiento del Señor,
porque no hay otro símbolo más grande de amor que el de la
Pascua; es un llamado a la alegría, una alegría que nace del
amor
— Hispanic Ministry Resource Center of Clareation Publications
El Embolismo
Después de las palabras "líbranos de todo mal", el sacerdote
recita una oración que empieza diciendo "Líbranos de todos los
males, Señor". La oración continúa pidiendo que vivamos
siempre libres de todo pecado y protegidos de toda
perturbación, mientras esperamos la gloriosa venida de nuestro
Salvador Jesucristo. Esta parte es llamada el embolismo,
porque es una pequeña porción insertada en el flujo regular del
Padre Nuestro, como generalmente lo rezamos fuera de la
Liturgia.

FIFTH SUNDAY OF EASTER
TRUE CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY
Can you imagine a world such as the one put before us in today’s
scripture readings? Communities of believers everywhere would support
and encourage one another and be identified as Christians by the way they
love each other. It would be a world with no tears, no death and mourning,
no crying out in pain. “Behold, I make all things new,” we hear the Son of
God say in the second reading from the book of Revelation (21:5).
Is this world of John’s vision only imaginary? Are these faithful
followers for whom Jesus prayed only a savior’s dream? Today they are put
before us as a worthy goal. How much closer can we come to this vision of
a true Christian community in our lives today?
VERDADERA COMUNIDAD CRISTIANA
¿Te puedes imaginar un mundo tal como nos lo presenta las lecturas bíblicas de hoy? Comunidades de fieles por
todas partes que se apoyan y se animan unas a otras y se identifican como cristianos por el amor que se tienen unos a
otros. Sería un mundo sin lágrimas, sin muerte ni luto, sin gritos de dolor. “Ahora todo lo hago nuevo”, oímos decir al
Hijo de Dios en la segunda lectura del libro del Apocalipsis (21:5).
Este mundo de la visión de Juan, ¿es sólo un mundo imaginario? Y esos fieles seguidores de Jesús por los cuales él
reza, ¿son un mero sueño del salvador? Hoy se presentan ante nosotros como una meta valiosa. ¿Cómo podemos
acercarnos cada vez más a esta visión de una verdadera comunidad cristiana en nuestra vida de hoy?
