3 Fifth Sunday of Easter May 14, 2017 I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. THE WAY Today we sense the apostles trepidation as they begin to realize that the Lord would soon be leaving them. In their fear, they ask, Master, we do not know where you are going; how can we know the way? (John 14:5). Jesus tells them that he is the way. The Easter season has been a time of growing in Easter faith so that we, too, may learn to know that Jesus is the way. We can take comfort in the Lord s promise that he is going to his Father s house to prepare a place for us, his chosen people who have been called out of darkness into God s wonderful light. As the paschal candle continues to burn during this holy season, let us remember that in baptism we were given the light of Christ. With Christ our light as the beacon lighting our way, let us march toward the glory of Pentecost. TODAY S READINGS First Reading To meet their growing needs, the community chooses seven reputable men to serve the new Greek believers (Acts 6:1-7). Psalm Lord, let your mercy be on us, as we place our trust in you (Psalm 33). Second Reading We, like living stones, let ourselves be built into a spiritual house (1 Peter 2:4-9). Gospel Show us the Father, Philip asks Jesus. To which Jesus replies: Whoever sees me, sees the Father (John 14:1-12). TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION In many parish churches, more rarely in monastery churches and cathedrals, the tabernacle with the Blessed Sacrament is visible from a doorway or aisle in the church. Normally, a person is to give the proper sign of reverence, a genuflection, when passing in proximity to the tabernacle. The word genuflect comes from Latin roots meaning bending (or flexing) the knee. A common-sense exception to the rule is for a sacristan who is taking care of the church and can t be genuflecting every thirty seconds during a vacuum run. Also excepted are persons in procession entrusted with important symbols of the Lord s presence. So, a crossbearer or a minister carrying the Gospel book, or ministers on their way to their Communion stations do not genuflect. For everyone else, the usual sign of reverence for the Lord s presence in the Blessed Sacrament is to genuflect on the right knee. The oldest form of reverence during prayer in our tradition is standing; kneeling or genuflecting is a sign borrowed from old civic practice. The posture of kneeling, even on one knee, is a sign of submission. Servants would take this position before their masters in the ancient world. It said: I m not running away, I m yours, I m here for you. This is what your genuflection says when you enter a Catholic church where the place of reservation of the Blessed Sacrament is visible to you: I m yours. Rev. James Field, Copyright, J. S.

4 Quinto Domingo de Pascua 14 de mayo de 2017 Yo soy el camino, la verdad y la vida. Nadie va al Padre si no es por mí. Juan 14:6 EL CAMINO Hoy sentimos la perturbación de los apóstoles cuando empiezan a darse cuenta de que el Señor pronto los dejará. Temerosos preguntan: "Señor, no sabemos a dónde vas cómo podemos saber el camino?" (Juan 14:5). Jesús les dice que él es el camino. El tiempo de Pascua ha sido un tiempo para crecer en la fe pascual para que, así también, nosotros podamos darnos cuenta de que Jesús es el camino. Nos consuela la promesa del Señor de que va a la casa de su Padre a preparar un lugar para nosotros, su pueblo elegido que ha sido llamado de las tinieblas a la luz admirable de Dios. Mientras el cirio pascual continúa ardiendo en este tiempo santo, recordemos que en nuestro bautismo nos dieron la luz de Cristo. Con Cristo, nuestra luz como faro iluminando nuestro camino, marchemos hacia la gloria de Pentecostés. LECTURAS DE HOY TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE Después de la muerte de Jesús, los discípulos habían regresado a su antiguo oficio de la pesca para así ganarse la vida, pues no sabían qué hacer. El Jesús resucitado tuvo que pescárselos de nuevo. En su tercera aparición, Jesús pidió a los discípulos que lanzaran sus redes al mar. Estos sacaron 153 peces del mar, número representativo de todas las naciones del mundo. Esta pesca milagrosa que tuvo lugar en Galilea, nos recuerda otra pesca milagrosa hecha en Brasil. En 1716 tres pescadores pescaban en el Río Paraiba y al lanzar la red al agua sacaron una estatua de la Virgen de la Concepción. Después, la pesca fue tan abundante que por poco hundía el barco. La virgencita de 36 centímetros había pasado muchos años en el agua por lo cual había tomado el rico color oscuro de muchos latinoamericanos. La devoción a Nuestra Señora de Aparecida creció hasta que la familia que la había encontrado la dio al pueblo para que en 1745 se construyera para ella una capilla pública. De esta manera, Aparecida pasó de las redes a los corazones, dando una rica pesca de personas para su Hijo. --Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM, Copyright (c) J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.
