Dear Families:
Some mes we can tell where a person is from and/or even their family’s origin, simply by their manner of speech, a re, and/or their expressions. Of these hallmarks, the person is o en not conscious. That is just the way it is. Today, Jesus explains how to recognize His friends. He says that by the love they have for each other. "See how they love each other", was some mes said of the early Chris ans. This no on may sound roman c and sugar-coated. We talk a lot about love, and it all sounds cute and very pre y, but if we ask anyone what is most important in life, they will quickly answer that it is love. Love, however, is not just a nice and cozy feeling, as some might think. Some mes love is difficult, hard, and complicated. It some mes manifests, not so much as a good feeling, but as our endeavor to wish others well. Wishing well to others does not necessarily mean liking them, or always being in perfect harmony with them. Our tastes or personali es are not always in sync with those we love. Some mes love requires a lot of sacrifice, pa ence, and tolerance.
The love that Jesus asks of us is not a sen mental and sweet kind of love: it is stronger than death; it is service to the point of giving one’s own life (as in the washing of the feet and the Passion of Jesus). It is stronger than hatred, because it seeks good, even for our enemies.
The love required of us is like the love that God has for us – uncondi onal - which is not to say that everything we are and do is to His liking. Rather, God does not withdraw His love even when we do not behave as we should. That is the same kind of love He expects us to show one another. We do not wait for people to be good, nice, friendly, and easy to live with. Rather, we are called upon to love them - seek their good - despite, not because of what they do. This is how we will be recognized as followers of Christ. Otherwise, we would be just like any person who does things out of pleasure and self-
gra fica on.
May God bless you.

: Acts 14:21-27; Rev 21:1-5a; John 13:31-33a, 34-35 Psalm 145
Quinto Domingo de Pascua 15 de Mayo del 2022
Hechos 14:21-27; Apo 21:1-5a; Juan 13:31-33a, 34-35 Salmo 145 [144]
Queridas familias:
A veces conocemos de dónde viene una persona, o incluso de qué familia, por su manera de hablar, de ves r, su voz, o su forma de mirar y sus
expresiones. Son señas de iden dad de las que a veces ni siquiera la persona es consciente.
Simplemente, se es así. Hoy Jesús explica cómo reconocer a sus amigos. Dice que por el amor que se
enen unos a otros. “Vean cómo se aman”, se decía a veces de los primeros cris anos. Puede sonar a noción román ca y demasiado azucarada. Hablamos mucho de amor y nos suena lindo, lindísimo. A cualquier grupo que se le pregunte qué es lo más importante en la vida, contesta rápidamente que el amor. Pero el amor no es simplemente un sen miento bonito y agradable, como pueden pensar algunos. A veces es di cil, duro y complicado. Consiste, principalmente, no tanto en sen r lindo, sino en buscar y desear el bien a otros. Desear el bien, amar, no es
necesariamente que alguien caiga bien, o que se sintonice porque los gustos o las personalidades encajen bien. A veces el amor exige mucho sacrificio, mucha paciencia y mucha tolerancia.
El amor que nos pide Jesús no es un amor sen mental y dulce: es más fuerte que la muerte; es servicio hasta dar la vida (como en el lavatorio de pies y la pasión de Jesús); es más fuerte que el odio, porque busca el bien, incluso del enemigo.
El amor que se nos pide es como el que nos ene Dios:
sin condiciones – lo cual no quiere decir que todo lo que hacemos o somos le parezca bien, sino que no nos re ra su amor, aunque no seamos o actuemos como debemos. Ese es el mismo amor que se nos pide a nosotros: no esperar a que la gente sea buena, agradable, simpá ca y de fácil convivencia, sino amar – buscar su bien – a pesar de todo. Así se nos puede conocer como seguidores de Cristo. De otra manera, no tendríamos ninguna dis nción: haríamos lo que hace cualquier persona por gusto.
Que Dios los bendiga.
Padre Celestino, Párroco

St. Christopher Magallanes
Feast Day - May 21
“Long live Christ the King and the Virgin of Guadalupe!”
This was the slogan of the “Cristero” uprising in the 1920’s against the an -Catholic government of Mexico which had ins tuted and enforced laws against the Church in an absurd a empt to
eradicate the Catholic faith in Mexico, even going so far as to ban all foreign clergy and the celebra on of Mass in some regions.
St. Christopher Magallanes, along with 21 other priests and three lay companions, were martyred between 1915 and 1937, by shoo ng or hanging, throughout eight Mexican states, for their
membership in the Cristero movement. Magallanes erected a seminary in Tota che and he and his companions secretly preached and ministered to the faithful.
The last words heard spoken by Magallanes were from his cell, when he shouted, "I am innocent and I die innocent. I forgive with all my heart those responsible for my death, and I ask God that the shedding of my blood serve the peace of our divided Mexico".
Pope John Paul II bea fied the Cristero martyrs in 1992 and canonized them in 2000.
