Dear Friends,
April 24, 2016
This last Friday I was privileged to witness the marriage
between Briana Smith and Trey Glenn. I would like to take this
opportunity to wish them many years of happiness and joy as
they begin their life together as husband and wife.
We know that the home is the first church where we
learn about God and our Catholic faith. In our homes we learn
the values and good morals that will help us to live productive
lives and hopefully guide us to lead holy lives. Most importantly,
the gift of God’s love is the greatest lesson a child can learn
from his/her parent!
This lesson was reinforced in me later in life, but what
can I say, I’m a late bloomer! I remember one year when I came
home for my summer vacation from the seminary. I was sitting
with my parents in their home in South Florida. It was around
5:00 pm, or, ‘the time for a drink before dinner!’
Then, something small but crucial happened, it was
this selfless act that was the secret for my parents marital
happiness as well as for so many other men and women who
enter married life. When it was time for his drink my father
didn’t get up and fix his own drink and return to his recliner. My
father asked my mother, “Ann, can I fix you a drink?” And the
next day it was my mother who would ask my father, “Bud, can
I fix you a drink?” Although it sounds insignificant, this was the
key to my parent’s happiness, ‘selflessness’, not that their
marriage was perfect, but they were happy.
I remember an example of this selflessness in the
movie, A Bronx Tale. The story took place in the 1960’s in an
Italian neighborhood in the Bronx. A young Italian man was
going out on a date with a young African American woman from
the ‘other part of town.’ To impress the young lady, the young
man borrowed a car from his friend who happened to be the
local Mafia Boss. When the young man returned the car to the
Mafia Boss, he described every detail of the night, “After I
unlocked the car for her she sat down and leaned over and
unlocked the car door for me (before automatic door
openers)!” “She did what, that means she loves you, she
sacrificed for you!” In other words, by that small selfless act she
showed she cared about him, she sacrificed for him!
So what is the true nature of love? It is a total selfgiving and free offering of one’s life for the good of another. We
see this in a mother who loves her child and will do anything in
her power to nurture, protect, and save the life of her child. We
see this type of love in a soldier who is devoted to his/her
country’s welfare, and will endure any hardship and suffering
and willingly sacrifice his/her own life to defend our homeland.
We see this type of love in a wife who has been married for 52
years. Her husband now is unable to walk or talk, yet she with
just as much love as the day they were married, cares for him
and loves him, that’s true love.
This is the type of total self-giving love we see in God
the Father who willingly offered his only begotten Son, Jesus
Christ, who totally emptied himself and died on the cross for
our sins. There is nothing that can separate us from this love!
“By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you have
love for one another.”
God bless you,
Fr. John
“A new commandment I give to you, that you love
one another; even as I have loved you, that you also
love one another.”
Queridos amigos,
Abril 24, 2016
Este viernes pasado tuve el privilegio de presenciar la
unión entre Briana Smith y Glenn de Trey. Me gustaría aprovechar
esta oportunidad para desearles muchos años de felicidad y
alegría ya que comienzan su vida juntos como marido y mujer.
Sabemos que el hogar es la primera iglesia donde aprendemos
acerca de Dios y de nuestra fe católica. En nuestros hogares
aprendemos los valores y buenas costumbres que nos ayudaran a
vivir vidas productivas y que nos guían para llevar una vida Santa.
Lo más importante, el regalo del amor de Dios es la mayor lección
que un niño puede aprender de sus padres!
Esta lección se reforzó en mí más adelante en la vida,
pero lo que puedo decir, que fui el último en darme cuenta!
Recuerdo un año cuando estando en el seminario fui a casa
para mis vacaciones de verano. Estaba sentado con mis padres
en su casa del sur de Florida. Era alrededor de las 5 pm, o, 'el
tiempo para tomar una bebida antes de cenar!' Entonces,
sucedió algo pequeño pero crucial, fue este acto desinteresado
que era el secreto de la felicidad conyugal de mis padres, así
como para tantos otros hombres y mujeres que entran en la
vida conyugal. Cuando fue el momento de tomar su bebida, mi
padre no se levantó y se sirvió su propia bebida y regreso a su
sillón reclinable. Mi padre le preguntó a mi madre, "Ana,
¿puedo servirte una bebida?" Y al día siguiente, fue mi madre la
que le pregunto a mi padre, "Bud, ¿puedo servirte una bebida?"
Aunque suene insignificante, esta fue la llave de la felicidad de
mis padres, ‘desinterés’, no es que su matrimonio era perfecto,
pero estaban felices.
Recuerdo un ejemplo de este desinterés en la película,
A Bronx Tale. La historia tuvo lugar en la década de los 60’s en
un barrio Italiano en el Bronx. Un joven italiano estaba teniendo
una cita con una joven afroamericana de la 'otra parte de la
ciudad.' Para impresionar a la joven dama, el joven pidió
prestado el coche a su amigo que pasó a ser el jefe de la Mafia
local. Cuando el joven volvió el coche al jefe de la Mafia,
describió cada detalle de la noche, ¡Después de que le abrí la
puerta del coche a ella, se sentó y se inclinó y me abrió la puerta
del coche (antes de que se abrieran de manera automática)!" "
Ella hizo esto, ya que significa que ella te ama, ella se sacrificó
para ti!" En otras palabras, por ese pequeño acto desinteresado,
ella demostró que se preocupaba por él, se sacrificó por él!
Entonces, ¿cuál es la verdadera naturaleza del amor? Es
una entrega total y libre que ofrece la vida propia por el bien de
otro. Esto lo vemos en una madre que ama a su hijo y hará
cualquier cosa en su poder para nutrir, proteger y salvar la vida
de su hijo. Vemos este tipo de amor en un soldado que se
dedica al bienestar de su propio país, y apoya cualquier
dificultad, sufrimiento y voluntariamente sacrifica su propia
vida para defender nuestro territorio. Vemos este tipo de amor
en una mujer que ha estado casada durante 52 años. Su marido
actual es incapaz de caminar o hablar, sin embargo, ella con
igual amor como el día en que se casaron, cuida de él y lo ama,
eso es amor verdadero.
Este es el tipo de amor, entrega total que vemos en
Dios el padre quien voluntariamente ofreció su Hijo unigénito,
Jesucristo, que se despojó a sí mismo totalmente y murió en la
Cruz por nuestros pecados. No hay nada que nos separe de este
amor! "De este modo todos sabrán que son mis discípulos, si se
aman los unos a los otros".
Que dios les bendiga,
Padre John

“I was in prison and you came to visit me.” Mathew 25:38
A group of men from various Christian Faith Communities, as well as men from our parish, are having a Kairos
retreat.
[Born out of the Catholic Curculio retreats meant to strengthen the Christian Faith of those who attend] and
bring the faith to those without or struggling with their faith.]
-42 inmates plus a team of 44 men from several churches will be at Broad River Prison from Thursday, April
28th till Sunday, May 1st to take part in this retreat to bring Jesus to all.
As a part of this we give a small bag of 2 or 3 cookies to each of the 1200 inmates with a Christian message
each of the three evenings we are there –we need thousands of cookies
If you can please help bake some cookies –enclose them in larger clear gallon or quart size plastic bags and they will be
included in this offering [they will be put in smaller bags at the prison for delivery. Cookies can be baked ahead of time and
frozen. This can be a fun project for a small group to get together and do something good for your church. We will take store
bought cookies – Please get the cookies to the small kitchen area in front of the church office(Atrium) by Wednesday
evening April 27th -- THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONTINUING SUPPORT -LETS SHOW WITH THIS SMALL OFFERING
THAT SOMEONE CARES As Jesus Cares! We are experiencing many new men to BRCI as The State System moves people
around and a younger group that have not experienced the cookie gifts in the past! PLEASE HELP-------------- QUESTIONS DAVID

MARK YOUR CALENDARS FOR MONDAY, MAY 9, 2016, the day after Mother’s Day, to hear the important Messages of
Our Lord and Our Lady given at Fatima, for the whole world.
THIS THE CENTENNIAL YEAR OF THE INTERNATIONAL PILGRIM
VIRGIN STATUE OF OUR LADY OF FATIMA HONORED TO VISIT
OUR LADY OF THE HILLS WITH A PROCESSION AT 5:30PM AND
DEPARTURE AT 10PM. ( Our Lady’s statue has been traveling
non-stop since May 13, 1947, after being blessed by the Bishop
of Fatima.)The Year of Mercy proclaimed by the Holy Father and
the 100th Anniversary of the Apparitions (3) of the Angel of
Peace, Angel of Portugal come together as a call for reparation.
In the Spring of 1916, the Angel appeared with these words to
the three shepherd children, Jacinta, Francisco and Lucia (the
longest living seer who died as a Carmelite nun at age 95), “Be
Not Afraid, I am the Angel of Peace. Pray with Me.” This
preceded and prepared the children for the six Apparitions of
Our Lady that followed on the 13th of each month (May 13, 1917
through October 13, 1917)and on the 5th visit said she was the
Lady of the Rosary. The sixth and final apparition has been called
the “Miracle of the Sun” when it “danced” in the sky with many
other phenomena photographed and recorded in the secular
newspapers, and witnessed by 70,000 to 80,000 people of all
walks of life, believers, and athiests alike. See the schedule listed
on poster and for more info regarding the statue see the website
www.pilgrimvirginstatue. Booklets will be available regarding the
Fatima message at no cost, along with brown scapulars of Our Lady of Mr. Carmel. Pictures will be available of Our Lady of
Fatima in the Narthex at a low cost.
