Reflecting on God’s Word
Today’s Gospel tells the story of the preparation of the
place where Jesus and his disciples were to eat the Last
Supper. During that meal, the new covenant in Christ’s
blood was established as an everlasting covenant that we
celebrate to this day.
Today is a good day to ask ourselves just how
intentional we are when preparing to celebrate the Mass.
All too often, our coming to this place becomes routine and
the Mass seems to pass us by. What an opportunity we miss
when this happens!
When we celebrate the Eucharist, we are joined to
Christ, proclaiming and participating in his death and
sharing in the promise of his new life. The gift of today’s
solemnity gives us the chance to re-examine our own
preparedness for Mass.
As today’s Gospel is proclaimed, let us remember that
it is at the table of the Eucharist that we can truly find
transformation. Here at this table we taste newness of life.
Let us pay close attention to the words and gestures of
the Mass, and when it comes time for Communion, let us
approach the Lord with humility of heart and offer a prayer
of gratitude for this gift beyond measure.
TRANSFORMATION
The effect of our sharing in the Body and
Blood of Christ is to change us into what
we receive.
— Pope St. Leo the Great

ALTAR WINE DONATION
This week is offered
In Memory of Hernán Helfer
by Helfer Family
Why Is the Responsorial Psalm
Supposed to Be Sung?
The psalms in the Old Testament were written as
songs. Some even have notes about instrumentation.
They are poetic prayers that were used in worship by the
community and by individuals. As poetry they express the
whole gamut of human feeling: joy, sorrow, pain, gratitude,
anger, praise. The psalms teach us that there is no feeling
that we cannot bring to our God. We can stand honestly
before God to express ourselves and know that God
listens and understands. We have the examples of the
Old Testament psalmist before us. The psalms have
traditionally been attributed to David, but were actually
written over a period of about 1,000 years. David is
considered to be the primary author and compiler.
Altar Flowers

Peter’s Pence Collection
June 27 - 28
Pope Francis continues to call each of us to be a witness
of charity. “To love God and neighbor is not something
abstract”, he said “but profoundly concrete: it means
seeing in every person the face of the Lord to be served, to
serve him concretely”. Pope Francis shows through his
actions what it means to serve our brothers and sisters and
give them the love of Christ. Let us follow his example of
service so that all people might have the joy of receiving
Jesus through our presence: “And you are, dear brothers
and sisters, the face of Jesus”.
The Peter’s Pence Collection unites us in solidarity with
the Holy Father and his works of charity toward those in
need. Your contribution allows the Holy Father to support
victims of war and natural disasters and others most in
need of assistance. Join Pope Francis and be a witness of
charity throughout the world. Please be generous in the
Peter’s Pence Collection.
“THERE IS MUCH THAT WE CAN DO TO BENEFIT
THE POOR, THE NEEDY AND THOSE WHO SUFFER AND
TO FAVOR JUSTICE.
PROMOTE RECONCILIATION AND BUILD PEACE”
— Pope Francis

Intención de Oración del Papa Francisco
Mes de Junio
Intención de Oración Universal
“Que los inmigrantes y refugiados puedan encontrar
acogida y respeto en los países a los que llegan”.
Intención de Evangelización
“Que el encuentro personal con Jesús pueda suscitar en
muchos jóvenes el deseo de ofrecer su propia vida en el
sacerdocio o la vida consagrada”.
Levantaré el cáliz
de salvación
e invocaré
el nombre del Señor.
¿Por qué se supone que el
Salmo Responsorial sea cantado?
Los salmos del Antiguo Testamento fueron escritos
como cantos. Algunos incluso tienen notas acerca de la
instrumentación. Son oraciones poéticas que eran usadas
por la comunidad y por los individuos para rendir culto.
Como poesía expresan la gama completa del sentimiento
humano: alegría, tristeza, dolor, gratitud, enojo, alabanza.
Los salmos nos enseñan que no existe sentimiento que no
podamos presentar a nuestro Dios. Podemos mostrarnos
sinceramente ante Dios para expresarnos, sabiendo que Él
escucha y comprende. Tenemos los ejemplos del salmista
del Antiguo Testamento ante nosotros. Los salmos han sido
tradicionalmente atribuidos a David, aunque realmente
fueron escritos en un período de cerca de 1000 años. David
es considerado el principal autor y recopilador.
— Salmo 116:13
NUESTRO SACRIFICIO
Reflexionemos sobre la Palabra de Dios
El Evangelio de hoy relata la historia acerca de la
preparación del lugar donde Jesús y sus discípulos tendrían
la Última Cena. Durante esa cena se estableció la nueva
alianza con la sangre de Cristo, la alianza eterna que
celebramos en este día.
Hoy, es un buen día para preguntarnos cuán seriamente
nos preparamos para celebrar la Misa. Demasiado a
menudo venir a este lugar se nos hace una rutina y tal
parece como si la Misa pasara sin pasar por nosotros. ¡Qué
tremenda oportunidad dejamos pasar cuando eso sucede!
Cuando celebramos la Eucaristía nos unimos a Cristo,
para proclamar y participar en su muerte y compartir la
promesa de su vida nueva. La solemnidad de hoy es un don
que nos brinda la oportunidad de reexaminar la manera en
que nos preparamos para la Misa.
Al escuchar hoy la proclamación del Evangelio
recordemos que es en la mesa de la Eucaristía donde
verdaderamente podemos ser transformados. Aquí en este
mesa gustamos de la vida nueva.
Prestemos particular atención a las palabras y los gestos
de la Misa y, cuando llegue el momento de la Comunión
acerquémonos al Señor con un corazón humilde y con una
oración de gratitud por este don inmesurable.
Ofrezcámosle a Cristo el gran sacrificio universal
de nuestro amor. Él ofreció su cruz a Dios como
sacrificio para enriquecernos a todos.
— San Efrén

Corazón”.
— Papa Benedicto XVI

Colecta Peter’s Pence
Junio 27 - 28
El Papa Francisco sigue llamando a cada uno de
nosotros para ser testigos de la caridad. “Amar a Dios y al
prójimo no es algo abstracto” dijo él “pero profundamente
cierto: ésto significa ver en cada persona el rostro del Señor
para servirlo, servirlo a él concretamente”. El Papa
Francisco muestra a través de sus acciones lo que significa
servir a nuestros hermanos y hermanas y darles el amor de
Cristo. Vamos a seguir su ejemplo de servicio de tal forma
que, todas las personas puedan tener el gozo de recibir a
Jesús a través de nuestra presencia: “Y ustedes son,
queridos hermanos y hermanas, el rosto de Jesús”.
La Colecta Peter’s Pence nos une en solidaridad con el
Santo Padre y sus obras de caridad hacia los necesitados.
Vuestra contribución permitirá al Santo Padre a ayudar a
las víctimas de las guerras y de los desastres naturales y
otros más que necesiten de asistencia. Únanse al Papa
Francisco y sean testigos de caridad en todo el mundo.
Por favor sean generosos con la Colecta Peter’s Pence.
“ES MUCHO LO QUE PODEMOS HACER
PARA BENEFICIAR AL POBRE, AL NECESITADO Y
A QUIENES SUFREN Y EN FAVOR DE LA JUSTICIA.

THE MOST HOLY BODY AND BLOOD OF CHRIST
THANKSGIVING
The word “thanksgiving” most often calls to our mind the holiday in November. But as
early as the middle of the second century Justin Martyr referred to the blessed bread and
wine of the Lord’s Supper as “food we call ‘thanksgiving’ ” (in Greek eucharistia). The
Thanksgiving we celebrate in the autumn is at times marked by a sort of proud societal
self‑congratulation and the consumption of food until we sink into an inert stupor.
The “thanksgiving” that we call our Eucharist is just the opposite: we are led to it by an
acknowledgment of our own failings; we remember our humble place in the scheme of
things by giving praise to God alone.
While the food of Christ’s body and blood fills our spiritual hungers, it also creates in
us a greater hunger. We are not sent to our spiritual sofas to let the Lord’s Supper settle;
we are sent to be living signs of that thanksgiving for the world by looking out for the
poor and powerless, feeding the hungry, caring for the sick, speaking out against the
self‑righteous. In short, the hunger created by our doing in remembrance of Christ must
lead us to living in remembrance of him.
ACCIÓN DE GRACIAS
El Día de Acción de Gracias que celebramos en el otoño a veces se ve marcado por una especie de orgullo y autofelicitación por
parte de nuestra sociedad, por no hablar de comilonas que nos llevan hasta el estupor. Pero la “acción de gracias” que en griego se
llama “Eucaristía” es al revés: lo que nos lleva a ella es el reconocimiento de nuestras faltas; recordamos nuestra posición humilde en
el universo alabando a Dios y a nadie más que a Dios.
Es verdad que el alimento del Cuerpo y la Sangre de Cristo sacia el hambre de nuestro espíritu, pero también es verdad que ese
alimento crea en nosotros un hambre más intenso aún. Al terminar la Misa no nos envían a un sofá espiritual a sentarnos en lo que la
Cena del Señor se nos asienta en el estómago; más bien, nos envían al mundo a ser signos vivientes de esa Acción de Gracias,
ayudando a los pobres y desvalidos, alimentando a los hambrientos, cuidando a los enfermos, protestando contra las actitudes
farisaicas. En fin, el hambre producida en nosotros al hacer el Memorial de Jesús nos tiene que impulsar a vivir “en memoria de él”.
