Welcome the Visiting Madonna - While we are
encouraged to embrace Jesus’ cross, perhaps the next best
thing we can do as the faithful is to turn to the Blessed
Mother for guidance…”Blessed Mother, please help me.” As
human beings, we can’t do everything. But the Blessed
Mother can go to her Son Jesus and do wonders.
The Knights of Columbus are offering intimate prayer
devotions in your own homes to all parishioners so that
every family may experience visitation for one week from
our Visiting Madonna. Families will begin to experience a
sense of peace, quiet and reflection while saying the Rosary
as a family with Our Lady. The family that prays together
stays together.
If you are interested in participating in
welcoming the Visiting Madonna, please call Sam Konrad at
(843) 399-7003 or email him at [email protected].
This week, The Visiting Madonna will be presented to
Lenny & Joyce Recchia at the 5:00 PM Mass.

Thank you for your continued support for OUR LADY’S
KITCHEN and our families in the Food Distribution Program.
Our need is still great. Many have had hours cut from work,
putting another strain on the family income this winter
season. Our Food Security program and Our Lady’s Kitchen
have been a real life support for the families who struggle to
make ends meet. Your financial donations and food
contributions are our only means of support for this
growing need in the North Myrtle Beach Communities.
These programs could not exist without You.
Thank You,
and May God Continue to Bless You.

Bishop’s Annual Appeal
Good Friday Collection
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
Christians around the world are united in a
special way during Lent, Holy Week and
Easter. Our hearts, minds and prayers are
also especially aware of the Holy Land.
Once a year on Good Friday, we are called on to support
Christians in the Holy Land. Many Christians in the Holy
Land depend on the collection for their lives.
As a pontifical collection requested by Pope Francis, the
annual Good Friday Collection offers a direct link for
parishioners to be witnesses of peace and to help protect
the Holy Places. When you donate on Good Friday, you
are supporting Christians in the Holy Land.
Franciscans and others in the Holy Land are housing and
feeding the poor, providing religious formation and
education, maintaining shrines and parishes, and
conducting pastoral ministry.
The Good Friday Collection is requested by the Holy
Father. Please be as generous as you can.
In the Lord’s Peace,
Most Reverend Robert E. Guglielmone
Bishop of the Diocese of Charleston
NEXT WEEK— SECOND COLLECTION

DOMINGO DE RAMOS
SEMANA SANTA
Queridos Hermanos:
Hemos comenzado La Semana Santa. Una semana muy
importante, para entrar en oración y meditación profunda sobre
la Pasión-Muerte y Resurrección de Nuestro Señor
Jesucristo. La muerte de una persona siempre es un misterio
incomprensible. Pero el misterio es mayor y profundo en la
muerte de Jesucristo.
En el Antiguo Testamento, Dios se presenta como el
Todopoderoso, Dios que castiga y vence a sus enemigos. Pero
Jesús como Dios hecho Hombre, Dios Encarnado; en el Nuevo
Testamento; se hace presente como un Dios débil y humillado, vendido por Judas, negado por
Pedro, juzgado por el Sanedrín, por Herodes y Pilato, abofeteado, azotado, escupido por los
soldados, coronado de espinas y burlado por todos, condenado a muerte, escarnecido en la Cruz,
insultado por uno de los ladrones y sumos sacerdotes: "Si eres Hijo de Dios Sálvate a Tí mismo y
baja de la cruz y creeremos en Tí".
De ahí; que los judíos no pueden entender este Gran
Misterio, y entonces no creen que Jesús sea Dios.
Los personajes que intervinieron en la Pasión y Muerte de Jesús, no son personas
extraordinariamente malas, sino personas normales y corrientes. Y esto nos ayuda a reflexionar,
que también a nosotros nos pueden juzgar, vender, traicionar, abandonar y crucificar, las
personas normales que están junto a nosotros. O cuántas veces quizá, también hemos criticado,
juzgado y condenado a nuestros amigos y familiares...verdad?.
Cuando Jesús muere, el Velo del Templo se rasgó en dos y un Soldado Romano
gritó: "Verdaderamente, El es el Hijo de Dios". Ante la debilidad profunda de Dios; debe rasgarse
también nuestro concepto del Dios del Antiguo Testamento. Debemos aceptar un Dios humillado,
que se encarna en la debilidad humana y que quiere ser el servidor de todos, y estar en los
pequeños, en los humildes y marginados: "Todo lo que hagan a uno de estos pequeños, a Mí
también me lo hacen".
Jesús muere para salvarnos del pecado y para darnos Vida Eterna. Grande es el amor de Dios.
Pidámosle a la Virgen María, para que Ella nos ayude, a meditar y reflexionar sobre la Pasión de
Cristo, a lo largo de esta Semana Santa; y
especialmente, vivamos el Evangelio del amor,
perdón y misericordia.
Dios los bendiga.
Padre Orlando.

Los cristianos de todo el mundo se unen de una manera
especial durante la Cuaresma, la Semana Santa y la
Pascua Florida. Así, en esa temporada, la Tierra Santa
está presente, también de manera especial, en nuestro
corazón, en nuestros pensamientos y en nuestras
oraciones.
Una vez al año, el Viernes Santo, nuestra parroquia es
llamada a apoyar a los cristianos de Tierra Santa. La
vida de muchos cristianos que viven allí depende de
nuestros donativos.
Siendo una recaudación pontificia solicitada por el Papa
Francisco, la colecta anual del Viernes Santo nos ofrece
un vínculo directo que nos permite ser agentes de paz y
ayudar a proteger los Lugares Santos. Al dar su donativo
este Viernes Santo, usted estará apoyando la
cristiandad en Tierra Santa.
Los Franciscanos, junto con otras entidades en Tierra
Santa, albergan y alimentan a los pobres, les brindan
formación religiosa y educación, mantienen los altares y
las parroquias, y ofrecen servicios pastorales. Para
mayor información, visite Myfranciscan.org/good-friday.
La recaudación del Viernes Santo es solicitada por el
Santo Padre. Por favor sea lo más generoso que pueda.
