PALM SUNDAY OF THE PASSION OF THE LORD

March 20, 2016

FROM THE DESK OF THE PASTOR:

Palm/Passion Sunday - March 20, 2016

The Passion of Christ according to

Luke 22:14-23:56 Five weeks ago, we received ashes on our forehead and were once again reminded of our sinfulness and our need for radical change in our lives. But those ashes did not just come from the bottom of someone’s fireplace. They were the result of blessed burned palms. Today we are five weeks older and our Lenten preparation for Easter has ended. The palms we now hold in our hands are new green leaves ready to as a reminder that we are part of this great story; that it isn’t just something that took place 2,000 years ago; that this drama is ongoing; that we are each involved in our own way in being part of the conspiracy and the betrayal that happened that night. These palms we wave today in jubilation can remind us, for example, that we have played the role of Peter in our own lives: lying and denying. They can remind us that we have played the role of John: abandoning. They can remind us that we have played the role of all the rest: arguing about who among us is the greatest. They can even remind us that we have played the role of Judas: betraying. But here’s the good news about these palms: they can also re-mind us of the miracle of mercy and reconciliation that can be ours. They can do that by reminding us of Jesus’ words of inde-scribable mercy spoken to the thieves crucified on either side of him: “Today you will be with me in paradise.” These palms that five weeks ago reminded us that we are dust, and to dust we will return, now remind us that we are also graced by love, an abundant love that goes before us and beck-ons us to follow. Lent, my friends, begin with palms and ends with palms. The question is: What will we do with their promise and their challenge? Have a blessed Holy Week,

Father Miguel Ceja

New Schedule of Weekend Masses From our Pastor... It is with love and respect that I communicate with you. Father Anthony Bui and I have expressed our desire to serve our community in a much more effi-cient way. We need your patience and understand-ing. Our parish has had an average of 4 priest in its past. Now, only Fr. Anthony and I are responsible to re-spond to the overwhelming pastoral needs of our parish and school. We’d love to be present at every meeting, activity and mass, but it’s practically impossible. So, we’ve discussed it thoroughly and consulted with all the main councils and ministries at our parish and the decision is to eliminate the 7:00 pm Sunday mass. We now have an average of 10 masses between Sat-urday and Sunday. Three of our four English masses are low in attendance. By eliminating this mass will give us an opportunity to combine the remainder English masses, will en-hance the liturgies by moving the youth choir and ministers to the 9:00 am mass. And hopefully will increase the attendance. Another necessary change is to move the 4:00 pm Saturday evening mass to 5:00 pm. The reasons? The Saturday mass in order to canonically be a Sun-day’s vigil mass has to be no earlier than 5:00 pm; It will offer us a smaller gap between the 5:00 and the 7:00 pm masses and will, therefore, help us to save energy. Also this change will give us more time between weddings, and the evening masses. In Summary: The Saturday 4:00 pm evening Mass will be changed to 5:00 pm and the 7:00 pm Sunday mass will be eliminated. The rest of the masses will remain the same. OUR CHANGE IS EFFECTIVE ON THE SEC-OND WEEK OF EASTER. Starting the weekend of April 2nd and 3rd of April, the 4:00 pm Saturday mass will start at 5:00 pm and the 7:00 pm Sunday Mass will be eliminated. I am very grateful to all the ministers, especially, Mr. Lincoln Mena and Josh Larios and the youth choir for their faithful leadership in this mass. I thank you for your understanding. Peace, Father Miguel Ceja

Domingo de Ramos de la Pasión del Señor

Marzo 20, 2016

Del Escritorio del Párroco:

Domingo de Ramos

20 de marzo del 2016 La Pasión de Jesucristo según San Lucas 22:14-23:56

Hace cinco semanas, recibimos cenizas en nuestras frentes y se nos recordó una vez mas de nuestra condición pecadora y la necesidad que tenemos de un cambio radical en nuestras vidas. Esas cenizas no las sacamos de ninguna chimenea ni de algún horno. Esas cenizas son palmas quemadas del domingo de ra-mos del año pasado. Hoy, cinco semanas después, estos ramos que ahora agitamos victoriosos con nuestras manos, son palmas que nos recuerdan una Gran Historia; también nos insisten que esto no es algo que sucedió solo hace más de 2,000 años; pero que este drama con-tinua hoy en día y que nosotros estamos íntimamente envueltos en él. Cada uno de nosotros juega un papel importante en la conspiración y traición que sucedió esa noche. Estos ramos que agitamos jubilosos deben recordarnos que pro-bablemente en nuestras vidas hemos jugado el papel de algunos de los personajes involucrados en esa historia. Por ejemplo, el papel de Pedro; que miente y niega. O, el papel de Juan quien lo abandona. O a lo mejor el papel de los apóstoles que se pe-leaban entre sí para ver quién era el más importante de todos. Me atrevería decir que pudiera también recordarnos del papel de Judas quien lo traiciona. Pero, estos ramos de palmas que este domingo recibimos, tam-bién portan buenas noticias: pudieran recordarnos del gran mi-lagro de misericordia y reconciliación que tú y yo podemos recibir. Pudieran también recordarnos de esas palabras profun-damente misericordiosas de Jesús que les dijo a los ladrones que fueron crucificados en ambos lados del Maestro: “Hoy esta-rás conmigo en el paraíso.” Estas palmas que hace cinco semanas nos recordaban que so-mos polvo y que en polvo nos convertiremos, ahora nos recuer-dan que somos agraciados por el abun-dante amor y misericordia de Dios que nos inspira y nos anima. La cuaresma, mis queridos hermanos y hermanas, comenzó con palmas y ter-mino con palmas. Ahora la pregunta sería: ¿Qué haremos con esta promesa y desafío que nos presenta? Tengan una bendita Semana Santa,

Padre Miguel Ceja

Sống Lời Chúa: Đừng kết án để khỏi bị kết án. Không vô cảm, không a dua nhưng có hành động để đồng cảm và bênh vực người chịu cảnh bất công. Cầu nguyện: Lạy Chúa, bản tính con người yếu đuối của con hay xúi giục con lên án, đổ lỗi cho người khác. Xin đừng để con lên án một ai nữa, để ngay bây giờ con đáng được Chúa thứ tha. Amen.

20/03/2016 CHÚA NHẬT LỄ LÁ Tưởng niệm cuộc Thương Khó của Chúa Lc 22,14-23,56

ĐỪNG KẾT ÁN Họ hô lên: “Chúc tụng Đức Vua, Đấng ngự đến nhân danh Chúa! Bình an trên cõi trời cao, vinh quang trên các tầng trời!” (Lc 19,38) Suy niệm: Dân chúng Giê-ru-sa-lem vừa reo hò tung hô Đức Giê-su: “Chúc tụng Đức Vua, Đấng ngự đến nhân danh Chúa!” trong ngày Ngài vào thành thánh cách trọng thể, thì ít ngày sau, cũng chính họ lại nhao nhao tố cáo và đòi lên án tử cho Ngài. Nghi thức kiệu lá và bài Thương Khó trong phụng vụ thánh lễ ngày Lễ Lá nêu bật tính cách mâu thuẫn ấy. Lòng người thay đổi thật nhanh nhưng đồng thời cũng thật dễ bị giật dây, bị tác động. Họ dễ dàng hoà mình vào cái hào khí của đám đông để hoan hô, chúc tụng Đức Giê-su như Đấng Mê-si-a mà họ đang đợi trông. Trái lại họ cũng thật vô ý thức và hèn nhát hùa theo đám đông để đả đảo, đòi lên án tử hình cho người vô tội. Mời Bạn: Chúng ta vừa chứng kiến một sự sai lầm ghê gớm dẫn đến hậu quả là kết án và giết chết Đấng Cứu Thế. Lắm khi chúng ta cũng áp dụng cung cách sống đó như khuôn vàng thước ngọc để khỏi chuốc lấy bao sự rắc rối: Phán đoán theo chiều gió của dư luận, hành xử theo kiểu ‘ai sao tôi vậy, ai làm bậy tôi làm theo’. Chính vì vậy mà chúng ta không dám tuyên xưng đức tin, không dám bênh vực cho lẽ phải, trái lại, về hùa với số đông, kết án đối xử tệ bạc với những anh chị em thấp bé, nghèo hèn.
