Receivable Lilli Angela Antonio [email protected] Bookkeeper Sherry Otero [email protected] Webmaster Lisa Hendey [email protected] Bulletin Editor email bulletin articles to: ext. 243 ext 101 ext 172 “This I command you: love one another.” Note that in this direct quote from today’s Gospel that the Lord does not offer this as a suggestion nor as an option. It is a command. He reinforces this several times in Holy Scripture as He offers it as one of the two most important commandments. If we make an effort to genuinely love one another, we will have gone a long way to living out discipleship and stewardship. It is appropriate on this Sixth Sunday of Easter when we celebrate Mothers’ Day throughout the United States that our readings are filled with the message of love. The love of a mother is one of the great blessings anyone can receive. We should have no difficulty on this day letting our mothers — in fact, all those women who have provided support and forgiveness to us — know that we love them. If loving one another is one of the hallmarks of stewardship as a way of life, showing that love to our mothers, and for mothers, showing and expressing their love to their children is paramount on this day. As Christ said in today’s Gospel, “No one has greater love than this, to lay down one’s love for one’s friends.” Mothers do that constantly, sacrificing so much for their children. We are blessed; let the “mothers” in our lives know that they are a blessing. ext 120 A cheerful giver does not count the cost of what he gives. His heart is set on pleasing and cheering the one to whom the gift is given. -St. Julian It is good for us to spend time before the Tabernacle, to feel the gaze of Jesus upon us.

It is sometimes extremely hard to see the good in others or find a way to love them depending on how they might act or speak to us or others. One of the most important things for us as brothers and sisters of Christ to do is love everyone we encounter as God loves us. God loves us with an unspeakable and unconditional love. It is our job to pass that love on even if we don't necessarily want to. Loving others as God loves you is a huge lesson that we can all learn and use to grow in patience, kindness, and living a life for Christ.

Teresa Norberto, MCSTNJ ext. 113 [email protected] MINISTERIO DE ASISTENCIA Miembros del Ministerio de Asistencia estarán en las entradas hoy aceptando cualquier donación que pueda ofrecer para aquellos que necesitan. Gracias por sus generosa contribución y oraciones! Oraciones y Peticiones ORAR POR LOS ENFERMOS: Oremos por todos aquellos que están enfermos. Para que puedan sentir el poder sanador de Dios a través de nuestras oraciones. CONDOLENCIAS: Oremos por todos los fieles difuntos. Oh Señor, concédeles el descanso eterno, y deja que brille para ellos la luz perpetua. Que descansen en paz. "Este es mi mandamiento: que se amen los unos a otros." Tenga en cuenta que en esta cita directa del Evangelio de hoy que el Señor no lo ofrece como una sugerencia, ni como una opción. Es una orden. Refuerza esta acción varias veces en las sagradas escrituras como uno de los dos mandamientos más importantes. Si hacemos un esfuerzo verdaderamente de amar uno al otro, habremos recorrido un largo camino para vivir el discipulado y la corresponsabilidad. Es apropiado en este sexto domingo de Pascua, cuando celebramos el día de las madres a lo largo de los Estados Unidos que nuestras lecturas están llenas con el mensaje de amor. El amor de una madre es una de las más grandes bendiciones que cualquier persona puede recibir. No deberíamos tener ninguna dificultad en este día dejar que nuestras madres — de hecho, todas aquellas mujeres que han proporcionado apoyo y perdón a nosotros — saber que las queremos. Si amarse los unos a los otros es uno de los sellos distintivos de la corresponsabilidad como una forma de vida, mostrando el amor a nuestras madres y por las madres, mostrar y expresar su amor a sus hijos es primordial en este día. Como Cristo dijo en el Evangelio de hoy, "nadie tiene amor más grande a sus amigos que el que da su vida por ellos". Las madres hacen eso constantemente, sacrificando tanto por sus hijos. Hemos sido bendecidos; dejémosle saber a las "madres" en nuestras vidas que son una bendición.

LOS SIGNOS DE REVERENCIA: LAS POSTURAS EN LA IGLESIA PROCESIÓN: LA PROCESIÓN: Más que un gesto litúrgico, es un rito. En las celebraciones habituales, por ejemplo, en la santa misa, los ministros realizan movimientos que tienen carácter procesional: al principio, antes del evangelio, etc. También los fieles adoptan esta actitud al presentar las ofrendas y cuando comulgan. Además, hay procesiones excepcionales unidas al año litúrgico, como la del Domingo de Ramos y la del Corpus Christi, o en circunstancias particulares de la vida de la Iglesia, por ejemplo, la de una comunidad parroquial el día de las fiestas patronales. La procesión simboliza, principalmente, el carácter peregrinante de la Iglesia. También, a veces, es un signo muy expresivo de fe y devoción. Deben hacerse con dignidad y respeto. Próxima semana: Por que nos INCLINAMOS en la misa?
