Page Two April 12, 2015 Pastor s Column Think of what is above, not of what is on earth. For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ your life appears, then you too will appear with him in glory. (Colossians 3:2-4) This morning, the Monday after Easter, the staff returned to work to find that vandals had broken several windows into our parish hall and offices although nothing has been stolen and destroyed inside. Unfortunately, the St. Vincent de Paul room had food items stolen. The Placentia Police did a great job in searching the entire facility to make sure that no one was still inside, and investigating the incident. The church and rectory were not touched. It s such a shock when we discover that our home or car has been vandalized or items taken, and even more ourselves or a family member being attacked as happens so much in our society. We wonder what goes through the mind and heart of someone who would do these things. The Easter message is proclaiming the victory of Christ over sin and death. He is Risen so that we might be freed from evil and serve him with all our hearts. Yet on this day after Easter, there are reminders that even for Christ, that victory came in the midst of human suffering. This Easter reading from St. Paul reminds us that while we still live in the world (a fallen world), we are called to think of what is above. Christ is above, risen from the dead so that we may continue to persevere in holiness. A part of his holiness is forgiving the unknown person(s) who wanted to damage our parish property, and steal items meant for the poor. Yes, we live on earth, but the Risen Christ calls us to transform this world into his Kingdom. May our Easter joy live on in the hope and promise of Jesus who calls us to appear with him in glory. ~Fr.

SPRING BIBLE STUDY Have you ever wondered what heaven is really like? During this Easter season, join fellow Catholics in the exploration of our hope for eternal life in the victory of Christ over death. This seven session study begins the week of April 19. Registration information is available on the parish website, in the pamphlet rack in the rear of the church, and in the Parish Center office. WELCOME HOME BEGINS THIS WEEK Are you seeking a renewed relationship with God and the Catholic Church? If so, our Welcome Home ministry is here to assist you! We would like to address your questions and help you feel at home once more in the Catholic Church. Six sessions will include informal sharing and an update of the Catholic Faith. We begin on Monday, April 13 at 7:15 PM in the Parish Center, room 3&4. For more information contact Paula Dougherty. ASSISTED SUICIDE PREVENTION The Catholic Church has always defended the sanctity of human life. With advances in medical technology, that defense has organically evolved to represent life from the moment of conception to the moment of natural death. That defense has consistently been put to the test by an increasingly secular world that would value human life only in terms of pleasure or function--as if a painful or difficult life, or even a 'nonproductive' life, were not worth living. In a unique way man has received his life directly from God, in the way that God--figuratively expressed--blew the man whom he had formed from earth the breath of life into his nostrils. In paradise man could eat from the 'tree of life' as long as he did not touch the 'tree of knowledge.' Above all the human life deserves unconditional protection from its very beginning. The prohibition to kill a human person is expressed in many places of Holy Scripture, first of all in the fifth commandment of the Decalogue. The prohibition of the Decalogue protects innocent people. (Diocese of Orange) BECOMING CATHOLIC Do you know someone who might be interested in becoming a Catholic? Our parish offers year round information sessions for inquirers. Contact Paula Dougherty in the parish Center office.
Page Three April 12, 2015 Second Sunday of Easter PEACE Throughout the liturgical year we focus on the words, actions, and miracles of Jesus as he moved from town to town. Today we focus especially on the first word of the Risen One as he greeted the disciples on the evening of that first Easter: Peace. The first word from the mouth of God s Son who had been unfairly tried, who had been beaten and spit upon, whose hands and feet were nailed to a tree, who suffered enormous pain in that torturous death was the word Peace. Not Revenge! Not Retribution! Not Kill! Peace. INSPIRED BY THE GOSPEL OF PEACE After suffering one of the greatest injustices known in history, it would seem that Jesus had every reason to bring down vengeance upon those who had treated him with such unfairness. But instead of vengeance, he spoke of peace. To us this may seem odd. For many of us, almost from the beginning of our lives, we are taught that the response to violence must be revenge. But does this have to be the case? Many of us remember the day when Pope John Paul II was shot in St. Peter s Square. Did he seek revenge on the one who shot him? No; when the pope recovered, he visited his would be assassin in prison, bringing with him the peace that comes through reconciliation. When this occurred, many in the world were stunned by what seemed to be an unbelievable gesture. They were stunned because this is simply not what the world has come to expect. In his gesture of reconciliation, the pope showed himself as an embodiment of the actions of Christ on that first Easter evening. Today is a day to ponder the fact that Jesus Christ sought to exact no revenge for the way he was treated. Instead he inspired in his followers, and inspires within us, a deep commitment to peace.

Page Six April 12, 2015 Renewing our Commitment National Child Abuse Prevention Month In an effort to raise awareness of the suffering caused by child abuse and neglect, Congress and the President designated April as Child Abuse Prevention Month in 1983. Since that time religious, public service, philanthropic and other organizations that care deeply for the welfare of children have marked April as a special time for highlighting and renewing their commitments to the care and protection of children and young people. As your Bishop nothing is more important to my pastoral mission than to provide the utmost care for those who need it most. From counseling the needy to extending financial aid to caregivers, our Church and Diocese are committed to the physical, spiritual and social wellbeing of everyone we encounter. This is particularly true for the children we seek to support, guide and care for. It is important to me and our diocese that we mark this national observance by recalling and reinforcing our steadfast commitment to creating and maintaining safe environments for children in our schools, parishes and other facilities. The Diocese of Orange takes this task very seriously, as does the broader Church. We employ a comprehensive background screening for all adults likely to be in contact with children - already over 75,000 have been vetted. This process allows for the collection of a wide variety of past screening data, including extensive backgrounds checks and fingerprinting, and is designed to enhance already in-place diocesan policies. Our diocese additionally requires all clergy, employees, and volunteers to undergo Safe Environment Training. In 2014 alone, the Diocese trained 286 priests, 115 deacons, 1,664 teachers, and more than 25,519 school employees and volunteers. Our schools and Religious Education classes at parishes and diocesan centers also provide Safe Environment education for children. This procedure is suited to their age and level of understanding. In 2014, nearly 44,000 children participated in this critically important awareness program. Please join me in recognizing the tireless efforts put forth by those involved in the development and implementation of all initiatives for the protection of children and young people. Keep them in your prayers and remember that care for others is a duty and a gift. By sharing our concern and becoming responsible for the safety and well-being of those who come into our care is a spiritual act we can be proud of, every day. The Church has worked hard to protect children and remains vigilant in protecting and caring for our most cherished resource. Much has been done, but more needs to be done. Until abuse is no longer a part of society, I and our Church will continue these efforts to protect children, youth and vulnerable adults. Column printed in Orange County Catholic newspaper CHILD ABUSE PREVENTION MONTH April is national Child Abuse Prevention Month. It is most appropriate that Child Prevention Month is held during Lenten and Easter seasons as there is no better time than this when we experience renewal and growth that we celebrate the protection of our most valuable gift from God- our children. For information on how you can become more informed and involved in keeping our children safe, log on to www.childwelfare.gov/preventing/preventionmonth or contact the Diocesan Office of Child and Youth Protection, (714) 282-3069. STEWARDSHIP OF TREASURE The next Stewardship of Treasure report will be published in the April 19, 2015 bulletin. Thank you for your patience.

Page Seven April 12, 2015 Easter Duty Paul Turner Going to communion is a treasured privilege among Roman Catholics. Most of the faithful present themselves for the Eucharist at every Mass they attend. It is hard to imagine a time when people received communion infrequently, but that was the case for many centuries. As the church stressed our belief in the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist, our ancestors began to feel unworthy to share it. Some people took this to an extreme and stopped receiving communion altogether. That was never the idea. At the Last Supper, Jesus said, Take and eat, take and drink. He issued an invitation; he did not set up a barrier. Consequently, in the year 1215, the Fourth Lateran Council decided to take action. It required the faithful who had reached the age of discretion to confess their sins at least once a year to their own parish priest and to receive the sacrament of the Eucharist reverently at least once a year at Easter. A version of this rule is still in the Code of Canon Law of the Roman Catholic Church. After their first communion, each of the faithful must receive holy communion at least once a year during the Easter season (the 50 days from Easter Sunday to Pentecost). But for a just cause, people may receive at another time of year (canon 920). Having reached the age of discretion, Catholics are obliged to confess grave sin at least once a year to any priest (canon 989), which many have done during Lent to prepare for an Easter communion. Lent is still a good time to go to confession. Easter is a wonderful time to receive communion. But we should confess grave sin right away and receive communion every Sunday.

Page Eight 12 de Abril de 2015 Segundo Domingo de Pascua PAZ En el curso del año litúrgico nos enfocamos en las palabras, acciones y milagros de Jesús en su recorrido por diferentes ciudades. Ahora nos enfocamos especialmente en la primera palabra del Resucitado al saludar a sus discípulos en esa primera tarde de Pascua. Paz. La primera palabra de la boca del Hijo de Dios que había sido injustamente tratado, que había sido golpeado y escupido, cuyas manos y pies fueron clavados a una cruz, que sufrió un dolor enorme en esa tortuosa muerte fue paz. No venganza!, desquite!, muerte!, sino paz. INSPIRADOS POR EL EVANGELIO DE PAZ Después de sufrir una de las más grandes injusticias en la historia, aparentemente Jesús tenía toda la razón de vengarse de quienes lo trataron tan mal. Pero en lugar de venganza, Jesús habló de paz. Esto parece extraño. A muchos de nosotros, casi al comienzo de nuestra vida, se nos enseña que la respuesta a la violencia debe ser venganza. Pero, debería ser ese el caso? Muchos recordamos el día en que dispararon contra el Papa Juan Pablo II en la Plaza de San Pedro. Buscó venganza del que le disparó? No. Cuando el Papa se recuperó, visitó al que iba a ser su asesino, llevándole la paz que viene de la reconciliación. Cuando esto ocurrió, muchos en el mundo se sorprendieron de lo que consideraron un gesto increíble. Se sorprendieron porque simplemente no era lo que el mundo esperaba. En su gesto de reconciliación, el Papa personificó las acciones de Cristo en esa primera tarde de Pascua. Hoy es un día para reflexionar en el hecho que Jesús no buscó venganza por el trato que recibió. Al contrario, él inspiró en sus seguidores e inspira en nosotros aún un profundo compromiso por la paz. Lecturas de hoy: Hechos 4:32 35; Salmo 118:2 4, 13 15, 22 24; 1 Juan 5:1 6; Juan 20:19 31 Copyright 2005, World Library Publications. All rights reserved.

Page Nine 12 de Abril de 2015 Columna del Pastor Piense lo que está encima, no de lo que está en la tierra. Ya que ha muerto, y su vida es escondida con Cristo en Dios. Cuando Cristo su vida aparece, entonces usted también aparecerá con él en la gloria. (Colossians 3:2-4) Esta mañana, el lunes después de la Pascua, el personal volvió para trabajar para encontrar que los vándalos habían roto varias ventanas en nuestro pasillo de la parroquia y oficinas aunque nada haya sido robado y destruido dentro. Lamentablemente, San Vicente cuarto de Paul hizo robar artículos de la comida. La policía Placentia hizo un gran trabajo en la busca de la instalación entera para asegurarse que nadie era todavía dentro, e investigación del incidente. La iglesia y la rectoría no fueron tocadas. Es tal choque cuando descubrimos que nuestra casa o coche han sido destrozados o artículos tomados, y aún más nosotros o un miembro de familia atacado como pasa tanto en nuestra sociedad. Nos preguntamos lo que pasa por la mente y corazón de alguien que haría estas cosas. El mensaje de Pascua proclama la victoria de Cristo sobre pecado y muerte. Es Elevado de modo que pudiéramos ser liberados del mal y servirle con todos nuestros corazones. Aún durante este día después de Easter, hay recordatorios que hasta para Cristo, que la victoria vino en medio del sufrimiento humano. Este Pascua que lee de San Pablo nos recuerda que mientras todavía vivimos en el mundo (un mundo caído), nos llaman para pensar lo que está encima. Cristo está encima, resucitado de modo que podamos seguir perseverando en la santidad. Una parte de su santidad perdona a la persona (s) desconocida que quiso dañar nuestra propiedad de la parroquia y artículos de robo destinados para los pobres. Sí, vivimos de la tierra, pero Cristo Elevado nos llama para transformar este mundo en su Reino.

Page Ten 12 de Abril de 2015 Deber de Pascua Paul Turner Ir a la comunión es un privilegio atesorado entre Católicos. La mayor parte de los fieles se presentan para la eucaristía en cada misa a la cual asisten. Es difícil imaginar un tiempo cuando la gente recibió la comunión con poca frecuencia, pero esto era el caso durante muchos siglos. Como la iglesia acentuó nuestra creencia en la verdadera presencia de Cristo en la eucaristía, nuestros antepasados comenzaron a sentirse indignos para compartirlo. Algunas personas tomaron esto a un extremo y dejaron de recibir la comunión totalmente. Esto nunca fue la idea. En la Última Cena, Jesús dijo, Tome y coma, tome y beba. Publicó una invitación; no estableció una barrera. Por consiguiente, en el año 1215, el Cuarto Consejo Lateran decidió tomar medidas. Requirió los fieles que habían alcanzado la edad de discreción para admitir sus pecados al menos una vez al año a su propio sacerdote de la parroquia y recibir el sacramento de la eucaristía reverentemente al menos una vez al año en Pascua. Una versión de esta regla todavía está en el Código de Derecho canónico de la Iglesia Católica Romana. Después de su primera comunión, cada uno de los fieles debe recibir la Sagrada Comunión al menos una vez al año durante la temporada de Pascua (los 50 días a partir del Domingo de Resurrección al Pentecostés). Pero para una causa justificada, la gente puede recibir en otra época del año (canon 920). Habiendo alcanzado la edad de discreción, los católicos son obligados a admitir el pecado grave al menos una vez al año a cualquier sacerdote (canon 989), que muchos han hecho durante la Cuaresma para prepararse para una comunión durante la Pascua. La Cuaresma todavía es un tiempo bueno para ir a la confesión. Easter es un maravilloso tiempo para recibir la comunión. Pero deberíamos admitir el pecado grave en seguida y recibir la comunión cada domingo. Copyright 2012 Resource Publications, Inc. 160 E. Virginia St. #170, San José, California 95112, (408) 286-8505. EL DOMINGO DE LA DIVINA MISERICORDIA El padre Aaron conducirá la Adoración de la DIVINA MISERICORDIA el domingo, 12 de abril, de 2:00-3:30 pm en la iglesia. El compañerismo sigue en el Pasillo C hasta las 4:30 pm. PREVENCIÓN DE SUICIDIO ASISTIDA La Iglesia Católica siempre ha defendido la santidad de vida humana. Con avances en la tecnología médica, esa defensa ha evolucionado físicamente para representar la vida a partir del momento de concepción al momento de la muerte natural. Esa defensa ha sido consecuentemente puesta a la prueba por un mundo cada vez más secular que valoraría la vida humana sólo en términos de placer o función - como si una vida dolorosa o difícil, o hasta una vida 'no productiva', no valía la pena vivir. De un modo único el hombre ha recibido su vida directamente de Dios, en el modo que Dios - figuradamente expresado - hizo volar al hombre que había formado de la tierra el aliento de vida en sus fosas nasales. En el paraíso el hombre podría comer del 'árbol de la vida' mientras no tocó el 'árbol del conocimiento'. Sobre todo la vida humana merece la protección incondicional a partir de su mismo principio. La prohibición para matar a una persona humana es expresada en muchos sitios de la Escritura Sagrada, en primer lugar en el quinto mandamiento del Decálogo. La prohibición del Decálogo protege a la gente inocente. (Diócesis de Orange) MINISTERIO EUCARÍSTICO Píamente considere el Ministerio Eucarístico.
