WHAT’S IN YOUR HEART?
In John’s gospel, confusion reigned at the empty tomb of Jesus. Mary of Magdala
thought the body had been taken. Peter could not understand what was happening.
Only the “disciple whom Jesus loved” grasped the meaning of the situation. For the
“beloved disciple,” it seems, the burial cloth neatly rolled in a corner merely
confirmed what he or she already suspected: Christ would be raised from the dead.
You can sympathize with Mary’s jumping to a conclusion or Peter’s mystification,
but what about the other disciple? Do you think that love can open your heart and
mind to both faith and knowledge? How?
WHERE WE LIVE, SERVE,
& WALK TOGETHER IN FAITH.
ST. JOSEPH’S
PAG E TW O
FROM THE PASTOR
My Dear Parish Family,
Welcome and Alleluia! As we celebrate this great Feast of Easter, remember that this is our reason for being Church. Jesus, Son of God and Son of
Man suffered, died and rose again from the dead so that we might have
everlasting life. Let us rejoice and be glad! Today, as you celebrate with
family and friends may you be blessed with all good things.
On a different note, just over a week ago, while driving over to Main Street,
I saw a sign for "Good Shepherd Catholic Church" in Island Heights, NJ.
My first thought was, "Hey, what’s this!? I’m always the last to know!”
Well, putting any attempt at humor aside, and knowing that many of you
have seen similar signs around, here’s the deal: Good Shepherd Catholic
Church is NOT a Roman Catholic Church. It is an American National Catholic Church. This Church is not in communion with Rome. Yes, they have
seven sacraments and their priests wear what looks like Franciscan garb, but
they do not follow the Pope or consider him the leader of their Church.
If you check out their website, they are "marketing" to our young people.
The picture on their website shows a man in jeans (well, a man with his
head cropped out of the picture?) and behind this blue jeans clad young man
is a sign that reads: “Finally, a Church with a message I can understand
and people I can relate to.” Showing just the headless body, perhaps they
haven't read St. Paul’s words imploring us to, “Worship God, I beg you, in a
way worthy of thinking beings." (Romans 12:1-2)
Unfortunately many Roman Catholics do not attend Mass regularly and
many may not be discerning or savvy enough to note the distinction between these two churches. So, I ask you to help. If people ask, please give
the correct information. The new Church in Island Heights is not a Roman
Catholic Church and is not a substitution for our Church and the Faith as it
has been handed on to us.
May God bless you and keep you.
Fr. Scott
Quotes: I… have faith in the cross…as the revelation of the “way” or
“path” of transformation, as the revelation of the depth of God’s love for us,
and as the proclamation of radical grace. – Marcus J. Borg, “The Heart of
Christianity”

PAGINA OCHO
MENSAJE DEL PASTOR
Querida Familia Parroquial,
Bienvenidos y Aleluya! Les recuerdo que la celebración de la gran
fiesta de la Pascua significa nuestra razón de ser Iglesia. Jesús, Hijo
de Dios e Hijo del hombre sufrió, murió y resucitó de entre los
muertos para que nosotros pudiéramos tener vida eterna, así que
gocémonosla y alegrémonos! Hoy, mientras celebran con familiares
y amigos deseo sean bendecidos con puras cosas buenas.
Cambiando de tema, hace poco más de una semana que vi un aviso
mientras manejaba por la Main Street que decía: “Iglesia Católica
del Buen Pastor” (Good Shepherd Catholic Church) en Island
Heights, NJ. Mi primer pensamiento fue: "Oye, ¿qué es esto!?
Siempre soy el último en enterarme!" Bueno, dejando cualquier
intento de humor a un lado, y sabiendo que muchos de ustedes han
visto señales similares a esta, este es el trato: La Iglesia Católica el
Buen Pastor no es una Iglesia Católica Romana, es una Iglesia
Católica Nacional Americana. Esta Iglesia no está en comunión con
Roma. Eventualmente sí tienen siete sacramentos y sus sacerdotes
llevan lo que parece ser el atuendo franciscano, pero no siguen al
Papa ni lo consideran el líder de su Iglesia.
Si observan la página web de esa iglesia, se darán cuenta que su
campaña de mercadeo está diseñada para atraer a nuestros jóvenes.
La imagen en su página web muestra a un hombre en jeans (bueno
en la imagen, la cara del hombre no se ve) Y detrás de el a varios
jóvenes en blue jeans con un cartel que dice: “Por fin, una iglesia
con un mensaje que pueda entender y gente con la cual me puedo
identificar.” El Mostrar sólo el cuerpo sin cabeza, parece como si
nunca hubieran leído las palabras de San Pablo en las cuales se nos
implora lo siguiente: “Adoren a Dios, se los ruego, de una manera
digna de seres pensantes" (Romanos 12: 1-2).
Desafortunadamente muchos católicos no van a misa con
regularidad y muchos pueden no ser exigentes o lo suficientemente
avispados como para distinguir entre estas dos Iglesias, entonces les
pido de su ayuda para que si alguien les pregunta puedan darle la
respuesta correcta acerca de esta Iglesia, y explicarles que la nueva
Iglesia en Island Heights no es una Iglesia Católica Romana y no es
una sustitución para nuestra Iglesia y nuestra fe, como nos lo están
haciendo creer.
Dios los Bendiga.

DOMINGO DE RESURRECCIÓN
JESÚS RESUCITÓ Y VIVE ENTRE NOSOTROS
¡ALELUYA!
El Domingo de Resurrección o de Pascua es la fiesta más importante para todos nosotros, ya que con la Resurrección, Cristo triunfó sobre la muerte derrotando el pecado y
con esto nos abrió las puertas del Cielo.
