SHOWING REVERENCE AND LOVE IN CHURCH
The Lord our God, gave Himself to us under the form of bread and wine.
This gift is our spiritual nourishment. Have we become so accustomed to
this Divine gift, that our attitude can become too familiar and routine?
We must remember that our Lord is present in the tabernacle of our
Church at all times. The following represent a few simple ways that we
can show our reverence and love for the gift of Christ’s body and blood as
individuals and as a parish family.

With the understanding that our Lord is always present in the Blessed
Sacrament within the tabernacle, let us work together to create a climate
of quiet, which is an aid to prayer. It shows our respect, love and honor
for the nourishment that Our Lord has given us. A way of witnessing to
the Presence of the Lord in our midst is to genuflect or bow when passing
before the tabernacle.
Remember that confession is necessary when we are aware of any serious
or mortal sins we have committed. Also, we should remember that we
should fast for one hour before the receipt of Holy Communion.
When processing to receive the Body and Blood of Our Lord and
returning to our seats, we should be intent on the gift we will be receiving.
This is not a time for socializing with others. When receiving
Communion, our response to the “Body of Christ” and “Blood of Christ”
is “Amen”, a simple one word profession of our faith. Upon returning to
our seats, we should spend a few moments in private prayer, thanking the
Lord for coming to us for all the blessings He has given us.

in Church seems a simple task.

HAPPY EASTER!
This Easter season is a beautiful time for us to renew our Christian life
and our genuine desire to follow and serve the Lord. A special
opportunity to do this is participating in Sunday Mass: The Eucharist is
Jesus’ great gift to us, and the fulfillment of His promise to be with us
always until the end of time. It is a central part of God’s saving plan of
infinite love for us.
Many Catholics today seem to take the gift of the Sunday Mass for granted. In the early
days of the Church, Christians did not enjoy the freedom of religion that we do today in
the United States. They were regularly persecuted by the Roman authorities for
attending Mass.
Pope Benedict XVI used to tell the story of the martyrs of Abitene (in modern-day
Tunisia). In 303, forty-nine Christians suffered torture and martyrdom because they
defied the Roman Emperor Diocletian’s order not to celebrate the Eucharist on Sunday.
When asked why they had disobeyed the emperor, one of them said, “Sine dominico
non possumus” — “Without Sunday, we cannot live.” In fact, for nearly 2,000 years
Christians have risked their lives to participate in Sunday Mass. During the Reformation
in England, priests were martyred when caught offering Holy Mass for English
Catholics. Courageous lay people who gave their homes over as places of Catholic
worship, and who harbored priests, suffered torture and death. The witness of saints in
our own lifetime testifies to the tremendous price paid by some of our Catholic family
for celebrating the Sunday Eucharist.
In the past and even in this century, Catholics in former Communist countries like the
Soviet Union, Ukraine or Vietnam were persecuted for practicing their faith. Today in
places such as Egypt, China, North Korea, Iraq, Sudan and countless other areas,
Catholics risk their lives and travel for hours to attend Sunday Mass. We give thanks to
God that we do not have to put our lives in jeopardy to attend Mass at our local parish.
The vast majority of us can walk “safely” down the street or make a short drive to arrive
at our beloved parish. But the ease, convenience, and legality of the Mass should not
cause us ever to lose sight that the Mass is so precious that many of our Catholic
brothers and sisters around the world are braving great inconvenience and persecution
to receive what we, by God’s love, have available near us.
Today we celebrate Divine Mercy Sunday, what a beautiful moment to give thanks to
God for his goodness and love, and even more for those who through their service and
selflessness continue to be witness to the world that is worthy to live for Christ and his
Church. Here, we give thanks for the infinite mercy of God as we receive new adults
into baptism, we welcome the newly confirmed, and we rejoice with those who for the
first time received the Body and Blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Thanks to all who
helped in one way or another to make our Holy Week a memorable one. To each of you
I wish you from the bottom of my heart, HAPPY EASTER.

WELCOME VISITORS.
We want to extend a warm
welcome to all who attend
Mass with us each weekend
as visitors to Our Lady of the
Angel Parish. We are happy
to have you with us. Please if
you are new or bringing someone, let the priest
know at the end of Mass. We would like you to join
our parish. We look forward to having you become
a member of our faith community. Each individual
member of our Parish is an important part of the
Catholic family. The gifts of faith from the Lord are
strengthened and deepened by our Communion in
Jesus Christ. The celebration of the Eucharist is the
heart of our parish life. Come share your “faith”,
your time and your talents with us.
DIVINE MERCY SUNDAY.
From the diary of a young
Polish nun, a special devotion
began spreading throughout the
world in the 1930s. The
message is nothing new, but is
a reminder of what the Church
has always taught through
scripture and tradition: that
God is merciful and forgiving
and that we, too, must show mercy and forgiveness.
But in the Divine Mercy devotion, the message
takes on a powerful new focus, calling people to a
deeper understanding that God’s love is unlimited
and available to everyone — especially the greatest
sinners.
The message and devotion to Jesus as The Divine
Mercy is based on the writings of Saint Faustina
Kowalska, an uneducated Polish nun who, in
obedience to her spiritual director, wrote a diary of
about 600 pages recording the revelations she
received about God’s mercy. Even before her death
in 1938, the devotion to The Divine Mercy had
begun to spread.
The message of mercy is that God loves us — all of
us — no matter how great our sins. He wants us to
recognize that His mercy is greater than our sins, so
that we will call upon Him with trust, receive His
mercy, and let it flow through us to others.

LETTURA DEL GIORNO
COMPLETAMENTE
D’ACCORDO
Leggere della fede dei primi Cristiani
puo’ essere un vera ispirazione per
coloro di noi che siamo stati Cristiani
per molto tempo, come pure per coloro che sono stati
battezzati ultimamente. Potete immaginare gente di
questo mondo che sia “completamente d’accordo”
come era la prima comunita’ di credenti? La prima
lettera di San Giovanni oggi sembra avere la chiave
di come questo puo’ essere realizzato. Mantenendo i
comandamenti di Dio ed amando tutti i figli di Dio
sembra essere il principio per stare ”completamente
d’accordo”. Noi viviamo in un mondo che da’
importanza alle differenze----differenze fra religioni,
fra razze, fra generi e fra classi economiche. Oggi
siamo chiamati a concentrarci su tutto cio’ che
abbiamo in comune in questo nostro fragile pianeta.

RENEWAL OF THE
BAPTISMAL PROMISES
Every year during this time, we will
be doing this renewal as a part of our
commitment to live a Holy and
Christian life. The opening prayer is
a beautiful reminder of this
obligation. “Dear brothers and
sisters, through the Paschal Mystery
we have been buried with Christ in Baptism, so that
we may walk with him in newness of life. And so,
now that our Lenten observance is concluded, let us
renew the promises of Holy Baptism, by which we
once renounced Satan and his works and promised to
serve God in the holy Catholic Church.”
WINTER DRIVE
We will have an extraordinary
second collection the weekend of
May 1-2 to help the parish defray
the seasonal expenses of this rough
winter. These include not only the
high snow removal costs and public services bills but
also repairs to keep our boilers running. A letter has
been mailed to all our registered parishioners with an
envelope for this drive. Please drop the envelope at
the second collection that weekend or return it at your
earliest convenience. Thank you all for your continued
support of our parish!

READING OF THE DAY
OF ONE HEART AND MIND
Reading about the faith of the
early Christian believers can be a real
inspiration to those of us who have
been Christians for a long time, as
well as for those who are newly baptized. Can you
imagine people of this world being “of one heart
and mind” as was the first community of believers?
Today’s First Letter of John seems to hold the key
to how this can be accomplished. Keeping God’s
commandments and loving all of God’s children
seems to be the start of being “of one heart and
mind.” We live in a world that stresses
differences—differences among religions, among
races, between genders, and among economic
classes. Today we are summoned to focus on what
we all share in common on this fragile planet of
ours.
First Reading: Acts of the Apostles 4:32-35;
Second Reading: 1 John 5:1-6; Gospel: John
20:19-31
Thomas believed because he saw the risen Jesus.
Although we have never seen him, we believe that
Jesus is the Christ, begotten by God. We give
thanks to the Lord that he has formed us into a
community of believers, united in the Spirit.
From ORDO 2015
REFLECTION QUESTIONS OF THE WEEK
ADULT: Do you believe that there are situations in
people’s lives when they can withhold forgiveness
from another?
CHILD: Do you ever choose not to forgive
someone?
Like new born infants; you must long for the pure,
spiritual milk, that in him you may grow to salvation,
alleluia.

¡FELICES PASCUAS!
Este tiempo de Pascua, es un bello momento para que nosotros renovemos
nuestra vida cristiana y nuestro auténtico deseo por seguir y servir al Señor.
Una oportunidad especial para hacerlo es con la Misa Dominical: La
Eucaristía es el gran don que Jesús nos ha dado, y el cumplimiento de su
promesa de estar con nosotros siempre hasta el fin de los tiempos. Es una
parte central en el plan de salvación de Dios por su infinito amor por nosotros.
Hoy día, muchos católicos parece que no dan importancia al don de la Misa del domingo.
En los primeros tiempos de la Iglesia, los cristianos no disfrutaban de libertad de religión,
como lo vivimos hoy nosotros en los Estados Unidos. Ellos constantemente perseguidos
por las autoridades de Roma por asistir a Misa. El Papa Benedicto XVI nos contaba a
menudo la historia de los mártires de Bitinia (hoy Túnez). El año 303, cuarenta y nueve
cristianos sufrieron tormento y martirio por desobedecer la orden del emperador romano
Diocleciano de no celebrar la Eucaristía el domingo. Cuando les preguntaron por qué
habían desobedecido al emperador, uno de ellos dijo: “sine dominico non possumus” –
“sin el Domingo, no podemos vivir.”
De hecho, durante casi 2000 años, los cristianos han arriesgado sus vidas para participar en
la Misa del domingo. Durante la Reforma en Inglaterra, hubo sacerdotes que fueron
martirizados al ser encontrados celebrando la Santa Misa con católicos ingleses. Hubo
laicos valerosos que, por dejar sus casas como lugares de culto católico y dar refugio a
sacerdotes, sufrieron tortura y muerte. El testimonio de los santos en nuestro propio
tiempo atestigua el precio tremendo pagado por miembros de nuestra familia católica por
celebrar la Eucaristía dominical. Durante el siglo pasado y aún en este siglo, los católicos
de los antiguos países comunistas, como la Unión Soviética, Ukrania o Vietnam, eran
perseguidos por practicar su fe. Hoy día, en lugares como Egipto, China, Corea del Norte,
Irak, Sudán e incontables más, los católicos arriesgan su vida y viajan horas para asistir a
Misa el domingo. Damos gracias a Dios por no tener que arriesgar nuestras vidas para
asistir a Misa en nuestra parroquia local. La inmensa mayoría de nosotros puede
tranquilamente atravesar la calle o ir en nuestro carro para llegar a nuestra querida
parroquia. Pero la facilidad, la comodidad y la legalidad de asistir a Misa no debiera ser
causa de que perdamos de vista que la Misa es tan preciosa que muchos de nuestros
hermanos y hermanas católicos alrededor del mundo están afrontando con valor graves
inconvenientes y persecuciones para recibir lo que, por el amor de Dios, tenemos a nuestra
disposición cerca de nosotros.
Hoy celebramos el Domingo de la Misericordia, que bello momento para dar gracias a
Dios, por su bondad y su amor, y más aún por aquellos que a través de su servicio y su
entrega desinteresada siguen dando testimonio al mundo de que vale la pena vivir por
Cristo y su Iglesia. Aquí, por la infinita misericordia de Dios recibimos nuevos bautizados
adultos, celebramos la confirmación, y nos gozamos con aquellos que por primera vez
recibieron dignamente el Cuerpo y la Sangre de Nuestro Señor Jesucristo. A cada uno de
ustedes les deseo FELICES PASCUAS,
Padre César Rubiano

DOMINGO DE LA DIVINA
MISERICORDIA
La misericordia de Dios se puede
describir como la respuesta de
Dios que viene en auxilio de sus
criaturas débiles. Ninguna criatura
es merecedora de la misericordia
de Dios, sino es una gracia que
Dios concede gratuitamente a sus hijos, por su
inmenso amor.
El pecado es la miseria mayor del hombre y la
creación. Nuestra miseria es el pecado y por eso el
hombre al ser pecador, es también considerado como
miserable. Pero hay una distinción muy importante
entre la miseria y el que es miserable, y es, que Dios
aborrece al pecado pero ama al pecador, ama al
hombre miserable y débil. Este amor con cual Dios
ama al hombre se define como Misericordia. La
misericordia no es precisamente compasión o perdón,
estos son más bien los efectos de la misericordia. En
la lengua hebrea significa “rahamin” y se define como
“un sentimiento que nace del seno maternal o de las
entrañas del corazón de un padre” Is 49. La
misericordia de Dios es un atributo de Dios que solo
existe para sus criaturas. Dice el Santo Cura de Ars:
“La misericordia de Dios es como un torrente
desbordado que arrastra los corazones a su paso.” No
lo merece nadie sin embargo es accesible a todos.

LECTURA DEL DÍA
UN SOLO CORAZÓN Y UNA
SOLA ALMA
Al leer sobre la fe de las primeras
comunidades de creyentes puede ser
fuente de gran inspiración para los que
han sido cristianos por largo tiempo, como también
para los que acaban de ser bautizados. ¿Te puedes
imaginar a gente de hoy que “tiene un solo corazón
y una sola alma” igual que la primera comunidad de
creyentes? La primera carta de san Juan que leemos
hoy es la clave que nos dice cómo podemos
lograrlo. Si guardamos los mandamientos de Dios y
si amamos a todos los hijos de Dios parece ser la
base de poder tener un “un solo corazón y una sola
alma”. Vivimos en un mundo que recalca las
diferencias –ya sean entre religiones, razas, géneros
y clases. Hoy se nos pide que nos enfoquemos en lo
que tenemos en común en este frágil planeta que
ocupamos.
BIENVENIDOS
Deseamos
extender una cálida bienvenida

Eucaristía es el corazón de nuestra vida parroquial.
Venga a compartir su "Fe", su tiempo y su talento con
nosotros. A aquellos que ya tienen un tiempo con
nosotros, les invitamos por favor a que se registren. Es
importante hacerlo. Gracias.
Como niños recién nacidos, desead una leche pura y
espiritual que os haga crecer hacia la salvación.
Aleluya. (1 Pedro 2,2)

MOSTRAR REVERENCIA Y AMOR EN LA
IGLESIA
Para que no olvidemos, el Señor nuestro Dios, se
entregó a nosotros bajo las especies de pan y vino.
Este don es nuestro alimento espiritual, el alimento
divino para nuestra jornada terrenal. ¿Hemos llegado a
estar tan acostumbrados a este don Divino que nuestra
actitud puede llegar a ser demasiado familiar y
rutinaria?
Debemos recordar que nuestro Señor está presente en
el tabernáculo de la Iglesia siempre. Lo siguiente son
algunas maneras sencillas por las que podemos
mostrar nuestra reverencia y amor hacia el don del
cuerpo y la sangre de Cristo como individuos y como
familia parroquial.
Entendiendo que nuestro Señor está presente en el
Santo Sacramento en el tabernáculo, trabajemos
juntos para crear un ambiente silencioso el cual
favorece la oración. Esto demuestra nuestro respeto,
amor y honor por el alimento que nuestro Señor nos
ha dado.
Una manera de dar testimonio de la presencia del
Señor entre nosotros es la genuflexión o reverencia
con la cabeza cuando cruzamos frente el tabernáculo.
Recordemos que la confesión es necesaria cuando nos
damos cuenta de cualquier pecado serio o mortal que
hayamos cometido. Al igual debemos recordar que se
debe ayunar una hora antes de recibir la Santa
Comunión.
Cuando vamos en procesión a recibir el Cuerpo y la
Sangre de Nuestro Señor y al regresar a la banca,
debemos estar atentos al don que vamos a recibir o
que hemos recibido. Este no es tiempo para socializar,
o para saludarse unos a otros.
Para recibir la comunión, nuestra respuesta al “Cuerpo
de Cristo” y “Sangre de Cristo” debe ser “Amén”, una
palabra simple de profesión de fe. Al regresar a la
banca debemos arrodillarnos y tomar unos minutos en
oración privada dándole gracias al Señor por
entregarse a nosotros y por todas las bendiciones que
Él nos ha dado.
Cuando recordamos que Dios nos dio a su Hijo,
Jesucristo, para que tengamos la salvación, el
demostrar reverencia y amor en la Iglesia parece muy
simple en comparación a lo que Él sacrificó por
nosotros.
