We are Called to be the Eyes and Hands and Hear of the Risen Jesus.
pastor’s note
And so I take the Lord’s hand and take what I have
to face…sometimes with none but the Lord who
understands how hard it is. And I just hold on to him.
(The Little Black Book, March 20, 2015)
In this procession we are to
see much more than a mimetic
reminder; we are to see the
ascent of God’s people, and our
own ascent, with Jesus to the
sacrifice. Moreover, although the
procession recalls Christ’s triumph
at Jerusalem, it leads us here and
now to the sacrifice of the Cross
as rendered present in the sacrifice of the Mass that
is soon to be celebrated. If we were to see in the
procession only a crowd waving palms and singing
joyous songs, we would miss its real significance in the
Roman liturgy. That liturgy looks upon the procession
not simply as a commemoration of Christ’s entry into
Jerusalem nor simply as a triumphal march, but as
Christ’s journey, together with his people, to Calvary
and the great central act of redemption.

Palm Sunday, the first act of Holy Week, is perhaps
the part of Holy Week that most sticks in the minds
of simple people; sometimes there is even a certain
amount of superstition mixed in with the celebration.
Yet the rich content of the texts, and the frequent
opportunities the pastor has of explaining them, can
offset errors, and the faithful can be brought to a proper
understanding of the paschal mystery that is now to be
celebrated for us once again in a solemn manner. (The
Liturgical Year, Vol. 2, Lent, pg. 195)

ADMINISTRATION
EASTER MORNING PARKING
The shouted response of this crowd-become-a-mob is
chilling. The word “crucify” comes like a thunderbolt.
To accommodate a large number of cars expected for our
9:00 am and 11:00 am Easter Masses:
This is the first time in Luke’s Gospel that this horrible
word appears in any form – and not once, but twice:
“Crucify him! Crucify him!”
•
•
It was already clear that the crowd wanted to kill him.
But does it have to be this way – a tortured, crude,
cruel death by crucifixion?
•
•
The cross comes into my life in many forms. But
the cross, different for each person, is when I say:
“Anything but that.” I cry from the depth of my soul,
“O Lord, anything but that…anything!”
Please carpool and share a ride with someone when
possible.
Overflow parking is available on the northeast corner
of Cornell and Saltzman Roads, on the lower level of
the parking lot beneath the Cedar Mill Library.
A small amount of parking is also available at
Village Day Care on 123rd Street.
If you arrive early and would enjoy a walk, parking
in one of these lots would be appreciated.
For these two Masses the church will provide traffic
control police at both the Saltzman Road and 123rd
Street entrances to the church, as well as having traffic
control staff in our parking lot. We hope to make your
experience of parking as comfortable as possible with
the limited amount of space that we have. Thank you for
your patience.
Sometimes I get the same answer Jesus got.

la Nota del parroco
REFLEXIÓN
En esta procesión vamos a ver más que
un recordatorio mimético; vamos a ver
el acenso del pueblo de Dios y nuestra
acenso con Jesús al sacrifico. Aunque
el procesión acordarse al triunfo de
Cristo en Jerusalén nos lleva aquí hoy
al sacrifico del cruz como se indica hoy
en el sacrifico del Misa que se van a
celebrar pronto. Si tuviéramos a ver en
el procesión solo un multitud agitando
palmas y cantando canciones jubiloso los haríamos faltar el
significo verdad en el litúrgica Román. Este litúrgica mira
sobre el procesión no simple como un conmemoración de
la entrada de Cristo en Jerusalén o simplemente un marcha
triunfo pero como el viaje de Cristo juntos con su pueblo al
Calvario y el gran centro acto de redención.
La Celebración del Triduo Pascual
En la reflexión de este domingo he querido compartir
con ustedes un brevísimo pensamiento sobre los puntos
principales que celebramos durante los días sagrados de la
Semana Santa.
Domingo de Ramos: Celebramos la entrada triunfal de Jesús
a Jerusalén. Era necesario que Jesús entrara en Jerusalén para
que se cumpliera la escritura y el propósito de su venida a
este mundo. La gente le brindaba el reconocimiento de su
rey, aplaudían, cantaban, ondeaban ramos de olivos, tendían
sus capas en el suelo para abrir paso al Rey de la Gloria, al
Rey de Paz, al Rey de Amor. VIVA CRISTO REY. Todos
hemos celebrado en la Liturgia de hoy este acontecimiento,
con nuestros ramos hemos conmemorado esa escena desde
hace casi dos siglos, hemos manifestado nuestro respeto y fe
en nuestro Rey y Señor.
El Domingo de Ramos el primer acto de la Semana Santa es el
parte de la Semana Santa que se pega en la mente de personas
simple y a veces hay una poquita superstición mezclada
con la celebración. Pero el contenido rico de los textos y los
frecuentes oportunidades el padre tiene de explicándolas
puede quitar errores y el fiel puede ser un entendimiento más
apropiado sobre el misterio pascual que es celebraron por
nosotros otra vez en una manera solemne. (El Ano Litúrgica,
Vol. 2, Cuaresma, pág. 195)
Jueves Santo: Celebramos dos grandes acontecimientos
importantes, La Institución del Orden Sacerdotal, el cual nos
sirve de Puente o Canal para que Dios derrame sus gracias a
la humanidad. Este Orden Sagrado Jesús lo instituye sobre
seres humanos elegidos por El para que siendo humanos
puedan entender nuestras fragilidades; hoy es el día oficial
del sacerdote, a quienes encomendamos en nuestras
oraciones y felicitamos de corazón, especialmente los de
nuestra parroquia. También celebramos La Institución de la
Sagrada Eucaristía, Centro y Culmen de la Vida Cristiana.
Así lo define muy bien el Catecismo de la Iglesia Católica,
ya que toda nuestra vida personal, conyugal, familiar y
ministerial gira alrededor de Jesús Sacramentado. Todos los
grupos de nuestra parroquia tienen su función alrededor de
la Sagrada Eucaristía, especialmente la celebrada todos los
Domingos en nuestra Comunidad de Fe.
El grito respuesta de esto multitud ˗se volvió un turba˗ es
escalofriante. La palabra “crucificar” vino como un rayo.
Este es la primera vez en el evangelio de Lucas que esta
palabra horrible aparece en cualquier forma ˗y ni una vez sola
pero doce veces: “¡Crucificarle! ¡Crucificarle!”
Ya fue claro que la multitud quería matarla. ¿Pero necesita
tiene que ser de esto manera˗ un muerte de torturado, crudo y
cruel por crucifixión?
Viernes Santo: Acompañamos a Jesús en su Pasión y
Muerte. El recorrido de la cruz representa el camino de
nuestra Salvación, debemos todos los cristianos cargar con
nuestra cruz diaria, ya que solamente muriendo en ella y
a través de ella podremos un día alcanzar la Vida Eterna;
por eso la veneración de la cruz en este día, por que es el
símbolo de nuestra Esperanza, la ruta hacia la Jerusalén
Celestial. El Evangelio de Marcos nos narra en tres ocasiones
diferentes que es necesario que el Mesías sea entregado
a las autoridades, padezca y muera, pero que al tercer día
resucitará. Sus discípulos no lograron entender este mensaje
de Jesús, por eso vemos como Pedro se niega a aceptar tal
afirmación. También a nosotros nos pasa mucho esto, es muy
difícil aceptar nuestro sufrimiento como preámbulo de la
Gloria prometida.
La cruz viene en mi vida en muchas formas. Pero la cruz,
diferente para cada persona, es cuando me dice: “Cualquier
cosa menos de eso.” Lloro del profundidad de me alma.
“¡Dios, cualquier cosa menos de eso….cualquier cosa!”
A veces me sale la respuesta igual que salió Jesús.
E así tomo la mano de Señor y tomo que tengo a cara….hay
veces con nada pero el Señor quien entiende lo difícil que
es. Y no más aferrarse a él. (El Negro Libro Pequeño, 20 de
Marzo de 2015)

Padre Sean Weeks

Sábado de Gloria: El Apóstol Pablo afirma: si Cristo no
hubiera resucitado, vana sería nuestra Fe (1 Cor. 15,14). Esta
es la Fiesta de las fiestas, la Celebración de las celebraciones,
ser un católico significa participar de todo el Triduo Pascual,
pero especialmente de la Vigilia Pascual; ya que en ella
celebramos el triunfo de Jesucristo sobre Satanás, de la
Vida sobre la muerte, de la Gracia sobre el pecado, del
Bien sobre el mal. Es el momento en el cual la humanidad
completa recupera la alegría y esperanza, porque Jesucristo ha
RESUCITADO. Durante la celebración de la Vigilia Pascual
hacemos un recorrido por la Historia de nuestra Salvación,
siendo su punto máximo la Resurrección de nuestro Señor
Jesucristo. ALELUYA.
