TU PERTENESES UNA FAMILIA
DE TU FAMILIA APRENDES AMAR, A CUIDAR DE OTROS Y A PERDONAR. HACES COSAS EN COMPANIA DE OTROS.
COMPARTES EL TRABAJO PARA TENER UN HOGAR FELIZ. CELEBRAN JUNTOS LOS DIAS ESPECIALES. TODOS EN LA
FAMILIA OCUPAN UN PUESTO MUY IMPORTANTE. TODOS EN LA FAMILIA SON NECESARIOS PARA QUE LA FAMILIA SEA
COMPLETA. CUANDO CADA MIEMBRO DE LA FAMILIA COOPERA, SON BUENOS, CARIÑOSOS, TODA LA FAMILIA ES FELIZ.
PERO, ¿QUE PASA CUANDO ALGUIEN NO ES CARIÑOSO O NO SABE PERDONAR?
LA FAMILIA ENTERA SUFRE
¿SABES LAS PALABRAS MAGICAS QUE TE PUEDEN HACER FELIZ OTRA VEZ?
“PERDONAME” RESPUESTA TE PERDONO”
CUALQUIER FAMILIA CARINOSA SABE ESTAS PALABRAS MAGICAS. TÚ TAMBIEN PERTENESES A LA FAMILIA DE DIOS, TE
HICISTE MIEMBRO DE LA FAMILIA DE DIOS, EL DIA QUE FUISTE BAUTISADO/A. EN LA FAMILIA DE DIOS, TAMBIEN SE
HACEN MUCHAS COSAS, CELEBRAMOS LA MISA JUNTOS, ESCUCHAMOS LA PALABRA DE DIOS JUNTOS, ORAMOS POR
LAS NESECIDADES DE TODOS LOS MIEMBROS DE ESTA GRAN FAMILIA JUNTOS. EN LA FAMILIA DE DIOS SE APRENDE
AMAR, A CUIDAR Y A PERDONAR.
JESUS DIJO: “LO QUE HACES POR OTROS, POR MI LO HACES”
CUANDO HACEMOS LO QUE JESUS NOS PIDE, LA FAMILIA DE DIOS ESTA FELIZ Y SE SIENTE ORGULLOSA DE
PERTENESER A ESTA FAMILIA. EN CAMBIO, CUANDO TE NIEGAS A HACER POR OTROS LO QUE JESÚS TE PIDE. TE
NIEGAS A AYUDAR A JESÚS MISMO. Y LA FAMILIA DE DIOS SE SIENTE TRISTE. PODEMOS DECIR DE NUEVO LAS
PALABRAS MAGICAS, “PERONAME JESUS” Y EL TE DICE “YO TE PERDONO”.

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
When the custom of the stational liturgies was revived in the
city of Rome in the early days of the twentieth century, the
papal liturgy for Good Friday was appropriately housed in
the stational church of Santa Croce in Gerusalemme, the
Holy Cross of Jerusalem.
The church is off the tourist track today, but true pilgrims
would never miss it. It stands on the grounds of the Sessorian
Palace, the home of the Empress St. Helena, mother of
Constantine. She dedicated her life to finding the true cross
of Christ in Jerusalem, and desired to found a church in
Rome for people who could not make the long and dangerous
trip to the Holy Land. Eventually, it came to house relics of
the cross. When the pope fled the city of Rome for Avignon,
the religious institutions of Rome collapsed and the church
was abandoned.
Centuries later it was given into the care of monks.
Amazingly, it concealed a forgotten treasure. In 1492
repairmen took down a brick wall and discovered a niche
with the inscription “Title of the Cross,” and within, an
ancient wooden tablet on which was carved the inscription
dictated by Pilate for the cross of Christ in Hebrew, Latin,
and Greek. No one is certain that this is authentic, although
its discovery was enough to give the church great prestige
among pilgrims. The veneration of the relic of the cross
located here was a factor in shaping our restored Holy Week.
