Lent is a time of profound grace and we are invited to let that grace sink in, take root and change us. Through our observance of these days by listening to the Scripture from the Lenten liturgies and by participating in the traditional practices of the Church, we are invited, in this holy season, to be stripped down and cleansed from all the obstacles that keep us from seeing our true selves clearly; stripped down so that we may come to understand more powerfully the Love of God who embraces all of who we are. There are many ways to enter into the spirit of the season and to "observe" these days. It is not so important what we do as it is important that we do something to make these days different from all the rest. One great way to enter into this season is by following the traditional practices of the Church which are: prayer, fasting and almsgiving. What is great about these practices is that they give us a way to enter into this season of healing with body and soul; physically and spiritually. RCIA Celebration of the Third Scrutiny During Lent, those preparing for full initiation into the Roman Catholic faith have entered into the Period of Purification and Enlightenment. This is a of intense introspection and prayer. As the Elect, Candidates, and our entire community , journey with them toward the joy of Easter, we take a long, careful look at where thirsting, blindness, and entombment are present in our life. Let us pray that these Elect and Candidates, that they may be given the faith to acknowledge Christ as the Resurrection and the life. Please keep our Elect and Candidates, Marvin Lopez, Ariasma Lopez, April Watts, Claudia Rosales, Sabrina Parenti, Mary Arnold, Judy Doukakis, Matthew Hill, Francesca Brooks and Tanya Gonzales, in your prayers HERMOSA BEACH, CALIFORNIA Divine Sunday Mercy Divine Mercy Sunday is on April 12, 2015. It is the first Sunday after Easter Sunday. The Divine Mercy Novena starts on Good Friday, April 3. The Novena leaflets will be on the table near the church entrance on Palm Sunday, March 29th. Jesus told St. Faustine “On Divine Mercy the very depths of My Tender Mercy are open. The soul that will go to Confession and receive Holy Communion shall receive complete forgiveness of sins and punishment. “A simple act of abandonment is enough to overcome the barriers of darkness and sorrow, of doubt and desperation. The rays of Your Divine Mercy restore hope, in a special way, to those who feel overwhelmed by the burden of sin”. -Pope John Paul II Almsgiving At Our Lady of Guadalupe Church If you picked up a Lenten Folder for your Lenten Almsgiving, please remember to turn them in to the parish office or in the collection basket before Holy Week, so we can send your donations to the Missions by Easter. Thank you for your generosity to those less fortunate!! Holy Week Liturgies Please sign up for Lector, Eucharistic Minister Ushers and Altar Server in the sacristy for the liturgies of Holy Thursday, Good Friday and Easter. These are the holiest liturgies of the year so we seek to offer our Lord our best service. QUINTO DOMINGO DE CUARESMA PAGE 2 MARZO 22, 2015 SERVIR COMO JESÚS NOS HA SERVIDO 1.- En este último domingo de la Cuaresma, antes de encarar la Semana Santa, se nos presenta la Palabra de Dios a modo de síntesis de todo lo que hemos ido escuchando y reflexionando en estos domingos. La gran alianza, la nueva alianza que Dios quiere hacer con las personas va a pasar por la muerte de Jesús en una cruz. Pero no por la cruz como tal, sino por la actitud de Jesús y la manera de afrontar esa muerte. 2.- Jeremías, en la primera lectura, insiste una vez más en que, a pesar de las muchas infidelidades del pueblo a la Alianza, Dios insiste y permanece fiel. No es la ley la que es mala y por eso no la cumplen las personas. Se trata, más bien, de cambiar a las personas. Y Dios va a hacer algo grande, algo que cambiará el corazón de las personas y les infundirá un espíritu nuevo, algo que ayude a las personas a crecer en confianza en Dios y en seguridad de que Él es fiel y no nos va a abandonar. Así también nosotros se lo hemos pedido a Dios en el Salmo respondiendo: “Oh Dios, crea en mí un corazón puro”. 3.- Ese “algo” grandioso de Dios a favor de las personas va a ser la entrega de su propio Hijo en la cruz. Jesús va a ser el que lleve a cumplimiento esa nueva alianza de Dios con las personas. “Ha llegado la hora”, dice Jesús, la hora de darle a su vida el verdadero sentido. La actitud de Jesús al afrontar la cruz es morir para dar fruto: “si el grano de trigo no cae en tierra y muere, queda infecundo; pero si muere, da mucho fruto”. 4.- Jesús va a ser “levantado de la tierra”, es decir, crucificado. Pero con esa muerte va a dar gloria a Dios. Por eso la voz del cielo habla de “glorificarle otra vez”. Jesús es ese grano de trigo que, muriendo, va a dar mucho fruto. Y los que queremos ser sus seguidores, hemos de vivir con la misma actitud de servicio, es decir, no pensando tanto en nosotros mismos, sino más en los demás. 5.- Jesús siente angustia por lo que va a pasar, pero también mucha esperanza y confianza en Dios, su Padre. Jesús siente que su muerte no va a ser en balde y quiere transmitir a sus discípulos que la actitud para vivir la vida a su estilo es el servicio. El triunfo de Jesús pasa por el silencio y por la muerte, como el grano de trigo. Aquí vemos el verdadero significado de “perder la vida” por los demás y por Dios, no mirando tanto el satisfacer nuestros caprichos, cuanto en servir como Jesús nos ha servido a todos. Este es el gran signo de identidad de los cristianos. Y cuando uno sirve, sirve a los demás, muere a sí mismo, y sirve sembrando perdón y amor, que es como Jesús muere, amando y perdonando. Eso es lo que hizo grande la cruz. 6.- La cruz, por sí misma, no tiene ningún sentido, pero Jesús le dio un sentido pleno y total por su forma de entregar la vida, aceptando el plan amoroso de Dios, esa nueva alianza grabada en los corazones. “Todos me conocerán – pone Jeremías en boca de Dios – cuando perdone sus crímenes y no recuerde sus pecados”. Y ahí está Jesús, perdonándonos a todos, crucificando con Él nuestros pecados. Y ahí está Dios, amándonos y perdonándonos. 7.- Por eso la cruz y la resurrección es el gran signo de la alianza nueva de Dios con las personas. El hombre entregado y sacrificado ha sido glorificado por Dios. Desde ese momento, en cada corazón Dios ha puesto su Espíritu Santo, para que, a pesar de nuestras fragilidades y de nuestros pecados, podamos contar con Dios y con su fuerza para superar cualquier adversidad y para vivir esta vida con el mismo estilo de confianza en Dios y de servicio a las personas que la vivió Jesús. 8.- Esto es lo que recordamos cada vez que nos acercamos a la Eucaristía. Esto es lo que vamos a vivir, de manera especial, en la Semana Santa, que comenzaremos el próximo domingo con la entrada triunfal de Jesús en Jerusalén y nuestra procesión con las palmas y los ramos. Es una semana grande, es una semana de fe, es una semana para no olvidar que, cada día, Dios está con nosotros, en la Eucaristía, en los pobres, en cada persona. A nosotros nos queda acogerles con nuestra actitud de servicio a los demás La SB 128 legalizaría el suicidio asistido por un El Servicio Penitencial medico en California.
