TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION “Mystagogy,” reflection on the Easter mysteries, is the chief task of these great fifty days, a “pentecost,” in other words, of grace and renewal. Every Sunday we have accounts of Resurrection appearances of the Lord, and sketches of the earliest efforts at being church. Lent is described as a journey to the font, and Easter may be described in similar terms, since at the very beginning an angel tells the apostles that the Risen Lord “has gone before you into Galilee.” Galilee, of course, was the place where Jesus did his finest work, his preaching, his healing, his gathering the lost and the marginalized to the table. At Easter, we hurry to catch up, putting our renewed baptismal promises to work in our own personal Galilees, our little worlds waiting for a word of grace, a healing, an act of pardon, an invitation to share a meal. The water often splashed on our Sunday assemblies in Eastertide reminds us: these are the golden, shining days of grace, days to nurture the heart, to speak to one another about things that really matter. —Rev. James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

STAY WITH US, LORD Walk with us, Lord, along the road of resurrection! Explain for us, so slow to believe, the things that Scripture says of you. Break the bread of the Eucharist with us whenever we share our lives with our brothers and sisters. Stay with us each time night approaches and the daylight fades in our hearts! —From Come, Lord Jesus by Lucien Deiss, CSSp, copyright © 1976, 1981, Lucien Deiss.

MAY-THE MONTH OF MARY The month of May is the “month which the piety of the faithful has especially dedicated to Our Blessed Lady,” and it is the occasion for a “moving tribute of faith and love which Catholics in every part of the world [pay] to the Queen of Heaven. During this month Christians, both in the church and in the privacy of the home, offer up to Mary from their hearts an especially fervent and loving homage of prayer and veneration. In this month, too, the benefit’s of God’s mercy come down to us from her throne in greater abundance” (Paul VI: Encyclical on the Month of May, no. 1). In May 2002 Pope John Paul II said, “Today we begin the month dedicated to Our Lady a favorite of popular devotion. In accord with a long-standing tradition of devotion, parishes and families continue to make the month of May a ‘Marian’ month, celebrating it with many devout liturgical, catechetical and pastoral initiatives!” The following practices which are recommended by the Magisterium are offered as suggestions for honoring Our Lady during her month. • The Regina Coeli • The Rosary • Litanies of the Blessed Virgin Mary • Consecration and Entrustment to Mary —© 2014 Trinity Communications

Welcome to the Church of the Incarnation
813-885-7861 Tercer Domingo de Pascua 4 de mayo de 2014 Me has enseñado el sendero de la vida y me saciarás de gozo en tu presencia. — Hechos 2:28
Domingo 4 de Mayo de 2014. Tercer Domingo de Pascua Reflexionando la Palabra de Dios Dos discípulos de Jesús van por el camino. Esta vez el caminar no conduce a la curación o a al encuentro de Jesús. Se les había muerto la persona en la que tanto habían creído. Aquellos dos discípulos representan a muchos millones de personas que han tenido un contacto con Jesús, pero no con el Resucitado, sino con el Cristo de los milagros, el del líder, el del entusiasmo del Domingo de Ramos. No aciertan a comprender que el Jesús de la cruz, el que sangra y padece, sea ese Dios que ellos se imaginan. Dice el evangelio que estaban tristes. Jesús se puso a su lado pero no le reconocían. El dolor por el fracaso les había vendado no sólo los ojos sino también el corazón. Se sentían rotos por dentro porque todo había quedado en palabras. También el corazón. Eran ciegos. Le cuentan a Jesús la versión de lo que había ocurrido, pero lo hacen con desesperanza. Ellos esperaban pero su espera había sido inútil. Ahora vuelven más desilusionados que nunca. Las palabras de Jesús les animaba pero su muerte, el silencio de la palabra del maestro les dejó vacíos. Jesús comienza a explicarles nuevamente todo lo que de Él se decía en las Escrituras. Escuchan pero ya sin convencimiento. Se sientan a la mesa y de nuevo Jesús toma el pan y habiendo dado gracias a Dios, lo partió y se lo dio. Dice la Escritura que en ese momento se les abrieron los ojos y reconocieron a Jesús; pero Él desapareció. El último gesto que tuvo Jesús con sus Apóstoles fue la cena. Ahora, después de su resurrección hace de nuevo el gesto de la fracción del pan, que alimenta, que salva, que abre los ojos al ciego. La Eucaristía es el lugar del encuentro con Jesús. Él se les muestra entregándose nuevamente, esta vez de una manera benigna. Parte para ellos y con ellos el pan y bendice a Dios. Y ellos le descubren. La vida cristiana estará siempre enlazada entre Eucaristía, Cruz y Resurrección. Una y otra vez en la vida del seguidor de Cristo estarán presentes estos tres momentos. Jesús no está en el sepulcro. El sepulcro se quedó vacío. Tampoco la resurrección es un retorno al pasado. El verdadero encuentro con Cristo está hoy en la Palabra, en la Eucaristía y en la profesión de fe. El Señor está en la vida nueva que ha llegado en la transformación del sufrimiento de este mundo. Encontrarlo es encontrar el camino de la salvación. Jesús resucitado está en la Eucaristía. La Eucaristía es el lugar preferente de la presencia de Cristo. Participar en la Eucaristía significa tener un encuentro personal con Cristo resucitado. También el resucitado está presente donde las personas se sienten hermanadas. El resucitado está entre los más débiles y pobres de la sociedad, aquellos que siempre llevan las de perder. Jesús con la superación de la muerte les hace ganar fuerzas para el camino de la vida, ilusión y alegría para su corazón, y ver, sobre todo ver que Él va siempre a nuestro lado. P. Jairo 9|
Para Reflexionar Los que se iban para Emaús desilusionados se encuentran con la sorpresa. Aquellos dos discípulos regresaban a su casa tristes y derrotados. Menos mal que en el camino se encontraron con un hombre que les cambió el rumbo de su vida. Aquel caminante pudo hacerlo así porque se dieron las tres condiciones precisas para la repesca. • EL ENCUENTRO. Es una suerte encontrarse con Jesús. Nosotros lo podemos encontrar en nuestros hermanos. Si no nos abrimos a ellos, no le encontraremos jamás a Él. • LAS ESCRITURAS. Cuando leemos la Palabra de Dios, ya estamos en buen camino para volver a encontrar a Jesús. • EL PAN. Es imagen de la eucaristía. La misa de los domingos no es ningún lujo para nosotros. Quienes la dejan, olvidan a Jesús. Es una lástima.
Mayo, Mes de María Acuérdate de rezar el Santo Rosario todos los días, es una oración sencilla que fortifica nuestra fe, nos da esperanza y nos lleva a amar como Jesús nos amó.
