est and most important occasions in a Roman Catholic person's life. A child's first communion is a cause for celebration. It is the first time that a person receives the Sacrament of the Holy Eucharist, which is the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ. Most Catholic children receive their First Communion when they're 7 or 8 years old, because this is considered the age of reason. For anyone to receive communion, that person must be considered to be without sin and in a state of grace. Congratulations to the children who be receiving their First Communion this weekend!

Sunday: Fifth Sunday of Easter Tuesday: Cinco de Mayo Thursday: National Day of Prayer STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION
\ In today’s Gospel reading, Jesus reminds us how im‐
portant each and every one of us is when He says, “I am the vine; you are the branches.” One of the central ideas in the spirituality of stewardship is how crucial each person is to the success and eﬀectiveness of the community. Of course, together we can do so much more than each of us can individually. Are you using your gifts? Are you using your gifts to build the community and to serve others? Jesus speaks of His Father “pruning” the branches that do not bear fruit. As is often the case in ancient Greek, a word can have two meanings. The word for “prune” is also the word for “cleanse.” That is the point the Lord is most likely making. Until we are “cleansed,” until we have sought conversion and change with the help of God, we are not able to fully fulfill our covenants with God. Stewardship, of course, is a call to each of us to re‐
spond to our many gifts with thanksgiving and service. Fruits bear seeds within them. Our response to God’s call is to allow our seeds to produce more fruit. The author Robert Louis Stevenson said, “Don’t judge each day by the harvest you reap, but by the seeds you plant.” As our Easter season continues, we need to make sure we are attached to the vine of the Lord, and that we are planting seeds. Acts 9:26‐31; Ps 22: 26‐28, 30‐32; 1 Jn 3: 18‐24; Jn 15: 1‐8 San Jaime / San León

REFLECIÓN DOMINICAL LECTURAS DE HOY
En la lectura del Evangelio de hoy, Jesús nos recuerda la importancia de todos y cada uno de nosotros es cu‐
ando dice: "Yo soy la vid; vosotros los sarmientos. "Una de las ideas centrales de la espiritualidad de la mayordomía es lo crucial que cada persona es para el éxito y la efica‐
cia de la comunidad. Por supuesto, juntos podemos hacer mucho más de cada uno de nosotros puede individualmente. Primera lectura — Bernabé explica a los discípulos en Jerusalén la conversión de Pablo (Hechos 9:26‐31). Salmo — Bendito sea el Señor. Aleluya (Salmo 22 [21]). Segunda lectura — Dios nos ordena que creamos en el nombre de Jesucristo y que nos amemos como él nos ama (1 Juan 3:18‐24). Evangelio — Los que viven en Jesús y Jesús vive en ellos producen mucho fruto (Juan 15:1‐8). LECTURAS DE LA SEMANA
Lunes: Hch 14:5‐18; Sal 115 (114):1‐4, 15‐16; Jn 14:21‐26 Martes: Hch 14:19‐28; Sal 145 (144):10‐13ab, 21; Jn 14:27‐31a Miércoles: Hch 15:1‐6; Sal 122 (121):1‐5; Jn 15:1‐8 Jueves: Hch 15:7‐21; Sal 96 (95):1‐3, 10; Jn 15:9‐11 Viernes: Hch 15:22‐31; Sal 57 (56):8‐10, 12; Jn 15:12‐17 Sábado: Hch 16:1‐10; Sal 100 (99):1b‐3, 5; Jn 15:18‐21 Domingo: Hch 10:25‐36, 34‐35, 44‐48; Sal 98 (97):1‐4; 1 Jn 4:7‐10 o 1 Jn 4:11‐16; Jn 15:9‐17 o Jn 17:11b‐19 ¿Está utilizando sus dones? ¿Está utilizando sus dones para construir la comunidad y servir a los demás? Jesús habla de su Padre "poda" las ramas que no dan fruto. Como suele ser el caso en griego antiguo, una palabra puede tener dos significa‐
dos. La palabra para "ciruela" es también la palabra para "limpiar". Ese es el punto de que el Señor está haciendo más probable. Hasta estamos "limpios", has‐
ta que hayamos buscado la conversión y cambiar con la ayuda de Dios, no somos capaces de cumplir ple‐
namente nuestros convenios con Dios. Custodia del territorio, por supuesto, es un llamado a cada uno de nosotros para responder a nuestros mu‐
chos regalos con acción de gracias y el servicio. Las frutas tienen semillas en su interior. Nuestra respuesta a la llamada de Dios es permitir que nuestras semillas para producir más fruto. El autor Robert Louis Steven‐
son dijo: "No juzgues cada día por la cosecha que ust‐
ed cosecha, sino por las semillas de plantas ustedes." A medida que nuestra temporada de Pascua continúa, tenemos que asegurarnos de que estamos apegados a la viña del Señor, y que estamos plantando semillas. Adoración Eucarística El lunes 04 de mayo 2015 tendremos la adoración al Santísimo Sacramento del Altar, desde las 9:00 am has‐
ta las 5:00 pm. Oremos por nuestro obispo Roberto McElroy, sacerdotes, diáconos, seminaristas, religiosas, novicias, los matrimonios, novios, jóvenes, adolescen‐
tes y niños. Y por las intenciones del Papa Francisco: Universal: Cuidado por los que sufren Para que, rechazando la cultura de la indiferencia, cui‐
demos a los que sufren, en particular a los enfermos y a los pobres. Por la Evangelización: Disponibilidad a la misión Para que la intercesión de María ayude a los cristianos que viven en contextos secularizados a hacerse dispo‐
nibles para anunciar a Jesús. Hora Santa El sábado 09 de mayo tendremos la Hora Santa ante nuestro Señor Sacramentado, de 7:00 a 8:00 pm. Habrá momentos de alabanza e intercesión y oración contem‐
plativa. Pediremos por la santificación de nuestros sa‐
cerdotes, religiosos, religiosas y misioneros, así como por la unidad y fidelidad en nuestros matrimonios. Invi‐
ta a un amigo a compartir esta experiencia del encuen‐
tro con el Señor Sacramentado. Hechos 9: 26‐31; Salmo 22: 26‐28, 30‐32; 1 Jn 3: 18‐24; Jn 15: 1‐8 La vigilia de pentecostés El próximo sábado 23 de mayo de 7 a las 11:00 PM con el P. Ricardo. Ven con tu familia, y amigos los espera‐
