St. Rose of Lima Parish Parroquia Santa Rosa de Lima In Christ, We are Bread for one another: Broken… we gather. Nourished… we reach out. ………………….....……………………………. En Cristo, Somos Pan para cada uno: Lo Dividimos… Nos Juntamos. Alimentados… tendemos la mano. Come Forth! March 22, 2015 LENT 5 The resurrec on of Lazarus was a miracle for which Jesus was applauded by the people as he journeyed to Jerusalem, but it also led to His arrest and death. Yet, this miracle offers an important teaching that is central to Chris an life. There are many Chris ans who believe that Jesus will give them eternal life when they die, but they live as if He has no power to give them new life here and now. They are like Martha saying, “Lord, I know that Lazarus will rise on the last day,” not realizing that Jesus could raise him that very moment. Besides “biological death” there is also “spiritual death.” We can be alive as our heart is bea ng, our lungs are breathing and our brain waves are ac ve, and at the same me be spiritually dead. Our life may have lost purpose and direc on, with no conscious rela onship with God. Our spirit may be trapped by sin, addic on, obsessions and fatal a rac ons. The Lord calls us to come forth from our tombs to new life in Him. When Jesus says that He is the Resurrec on and the Life, He is teaching us that the cri cal moment in every human life is not the moment of our first job, a promo on, marriage, giving birth, our death, but the moment when we turn from unbelief to real belief in Him. That moment is decisive because it connects us to Jesus Christ in a very personal way as He gives us His own life, His grace. When we place ourselves in the hands of Christ and His truth, we start to emerge from the darkness. The bonds which enslave us are loosened as grace enters our life. It is the moment when we open ourselves to the power of Christ. Jesus calls us to “Come forth” from our tombs in the Sacraments... 11701 Clopper Rd., Gaithersburg, MD 20878-1024 PHONE: 301-948-7545 FAX: 301-869-2170 EMERGENCIES (A er Hours): 301-355-8191 CANCELLATION INFORMATION: x307 WEBSITE: www.strose-parish.org EUCHARIST / EUCARISTÍA Historic Chapel / Capilla Histórica Monday-Friday................................... 8:30 am (English) 1er Viernes ........................................ 7:00 pm (Español) Sunday............................................... 7:15 am (English) 1er Dimanche................................... 10:00 am (Français) 2nd Sunday ........................................ 5:00 pm (Tagalog) Church / Iglesia Saturday Vigil ..................................... 5:00 pm (English) Sunday...... 8:45 am (English) & 11:15 am (English + ASL) Domingo ........................................... 1:00 pm (Español) RECONCILIATION / RECONCILIACIÓN Historic Chapel / Capilla Histórica Thursday........................ 7:00-9:00 pm (English/Español) Church / Iglesia Saturday ..................................... 4:00-4:30 pm (English) Domingo .................................... 2:15-3:15 pm (Español) BAPTISM PREPARATION / PREPARACIÓN PARA BAUTIZO Bap sm Classes Begin while pregnant or awai ng adop on.
