Evangelio según san Juan 14:23-39

Nuestro Mundo necesita el amor que Jesús propone y donde hay Amor verdadero allí está Dios

El cristianismo es una religión de la Palabra, de la palabra hecha carne en Cristo. Palabra para ser escuchada y que se encarna en cada cristiano, en cada persona. Es la forma de hacer presente en cada uno la vida de fe.

La Palabra de Jesús es la palabra del Padre. Pero se quiere poner de manifiesto que cuando él no esté entre los suyos, esa palabra no se agotará, sino que el Espíritu Santo

completará todo aquello que sea necesario para la vida de la comunidad. Dios hace su “morada” en las personas que aman a Jesús y guardan sus palabras.

En el “envío” del Hijo y del Espíritu por el Padre encontra- mos la raíz de la misión de la iglesia cristiana. Quienes siguen a Jesús por la fuerza del Espíritu, escuchan las palabras de Jesús y recuerdan sus enseñanzas, experimentan el amor y la presencia de Dios. No se trata de convertir a la fuerza a nadie, lo que se requiere es simplemente aprender a amar a Dios y al prójimo a la manera de Jesús.

SOLEMNIDAD DE LA ASCENCIÓN DEL SEÑOR

Jueves 26 de Mayo Jesús fue al cielo, pero eso no significa que Su obra o la nuestra haya termina- do. Debemos continuar enseñando, predicando, dando buen ejemplo a todos los que nos rodean. Se nos ha dado la tarea de salir a enseñar a todas las nacio-

nes. Esto suena como una gran cosa, pero si comenzamos dentro de nuestras propias familias, vecindarios y comuni- dades, no es tan difícil. Si continuamos con la obra que Jesús comenzó, se nos ha prometido un lugar en el cielo.

Nosotros también seremos resucitados para vivir para siem- pre a la vista de Dios Padre. Después de la muerte seremos resucitados y ascenderemos al Padre. Hasta entonces debe- mos vivir como un pueblo destinado a la eternidad. El signi- ficado positivo de la Ascensión de Jesús, es que contamos con el Espíritu Santo que nos guía y conduce a Dios.

ST. TERESA OF KOLKATA BOOK CLUB —The next Book Club meeting will be on Thursday, May 26, at 7 PM at the

St. Pius X School. The title of the book is "Girl Missing" by Tess Gerritsen. The next book will be reading is “I capture the Castle” by Dodie Smith. The meeting will be at the RCIA room on the 1st floor. Any questions, please call Kathleen Blassey 412-563-1847.

From Laudato Si, Pope Francis’ encyclical on the environment: Christian spirituality proposes an alternative understanding of the quality of life, and encourages a prophetic and contemplative lifestyle, one capable of deep enjoyment free of the obsession with consumption. We need to take up an ancient lesson, found in different religious traditions and also in the Bible. It is the conviction that “less is more”. A constant flood of new consumer goods can baffle the heart and prevent us from cherishing each thing and each moment.

To be serenely present to each reality, however small it may be, opens us to much greater horizons of understand- ing and personal fulfillment. Christian spirituality proposes a growth marked by moderation and the capacity to be happy with little. (#222)

DONUT SOCIAL after all the Masses this weekend of May 21/22. Please join us there!

MISSIONARY COOPERATION SUNDAY

This year, Missionary Cooperation Sunday is the weekend of June 4^th and 5^th. As with the past couple of years, because of restrictions, we will not host a missionary but instead will hear homily letter written by a missionary. Our parish this year is supporting Archdiocese of Tororo in Uganda. Fr. Deogratias Ekisa, a priest from the Archdio- cese says, “the average income of our parishioners is rather limited, about $1,000 per family per year, which comes mainly from small-scale farming. And yet despite their meager

resources, the people support the work of the Church to the best of their ability.” Realizing that it has been a difficult few years for all of us, we can only imagine how difficult it has been for people who make so little money in countries with no or very few safety nets. Please be as generous as possible through prayer and financial support in helping to offer a safety net that the Archdiocese of Tororo is providing for her people.

PARISH SUMMER FESTIVAL NEWS In preparation for our summer festival, which will take place August 3-6, we will be in need of the following:

SPX PAPER RECYCLING DUMPSTERS– We are having trouble with the recycling company keeping up with emptying our dumpsters. We do not make any money on these, but we have them available to support good stewardship of the earth. Since the City also picks up recycling at your curb, please use the City as your first option. Fr. Jim

RETURNING TO ORDINARY LIFE

Six weeks into our Easter rejoicing, the Church gives us readings today that start preparing us for a return to ordinary life. The Acts of the Apostles and the Gospel both dwell on proper daily behavior for followers of Jesus, while the reading from Revelation reminds us why we bother with laws at all. In Acts, leaders of the church meet to discuss which essential ele- ments of the Mosaic Law converts must obey if they wish to be disciples of Jesus Christ. John’s Gospel reflects back to the Last Supper discourse when Jesus himself emphasizes the im- portance of obeying God’s commandments. Observing God’s law, says Jesus, shows a desire to be intimate with the Lord.

We follow rules not for their own sake, but to love God and neighbor better. This more excellent love brings us closer to Revelation’s vision of paradise,

gleaming with “the splendor of God.”Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
