May 29, 2022

According to our Christian faith, we now share with the Jews not only the privilege of being a people of the Book, the Hebrew Bible, but also the opportunity to be a sacramental people before other nations. We are also the people of a New Covenant that identifies God with us through the gift of Jesus Christ, the Word of God in our humanity.

The Ascension of the Lord teaches us that we are not the ones who receive the leftovers of God's gifts, but a significant community that bears the responsibility of living like Christ, in love with the world. We are a special people with the opportunity to serve the world with the same love that brought about Creation, delivered Israel from Egypt, returned the Jews from Babylonian exile, and brought Jesus through his death as we die to a life as God lives. .

It is sad that few Christians have the opportunity to see in their lives the dignity that God gives us for what we say and do before the world. Today, the Acts of the Apostles indicates how we became that sacramental people.

We are the ones who must offer our life despite the danger of the world that believes in power and accumulated wealth. We live to be its contradiction and its salvation. We live our lives with the same sacrificial love that so moved Christ during his life among us. How he represents the total uninstallation of the creator and liberating God, so do we. We are invited by baptism to live and die with that same sense of giving time to those who live among us.

The letter to the Hebrews tells us that Christ lives and dies to establish our unity with God and to share his authority over the Christian life. The authority of Jesus loves, serving others. For us there is no other authority. We never send anyone. We live only to serve, to ensure that everyone has life, food, home and work in the freedom of an organized humanity. For that purpose Jesus lived; This is what we must live for today.

Christ continues to accompany us in our lives and in the Gospel, these two realities being a broken bread to feed everyone. The Spirit of Christ moves us according to the details of our life, with a defense when it is necessary or with encouragement when we are lazy. So we must continue to promote justice, love and compassion in the world.

In the Gospel that is read today, Jesus explains to the disciples that all those who give testimony in their lives, of his life, death and resurrection will receive the power of God.

That power is always creative, liberating and founded on the basis of the love of others and our obedience to God's covenant with us.

La Fiesta de la Ascensión del Señor, trasladada este año de un jueves al Séptimo Domingo de Pascua.

Según nuestra fe cristiana, ahora compartimos con los judíos, no sólo el privilegio de ser un pueblo del Libro, la Biblia Hebrea, sino la oportunidad de ser un pueblo sacramental ante las demás naciones. Somos también el pueblo de una Alianza Nueva que identifica a Dios con nosotros por medio del don de Jesucristo, el Verbo de Dios en nuestra humanidad.

La Ascensión del Señor nos enseña que no somos los que recibimos las sobras de los dones de Dios, sino una comunidad significante que lleva la responsabilidad de vivir como Cristo, enamorados del mundo. Somos un pueblo especial con la oportunidad de servir el mundo con el mismo amor que provocó la Creación, liberó a Israel en Egipto, regresó a los judíos del exilio babilónico, y llevó a Jesús por su muerte como nosotros morimos a una vida como Dios vive.

Es triste que pocos cristianos tengan la oportunidad de ver en su vida la dignidad que Dios nos da por lo que decimos y hacemos ante el mundo. Hoy, los Hechos de los Apóstoles indica cómo llegamos a ser ese pueblo sacramental.

Somos los que debemos ofrecer nuestra vida a pesar del peligro del mundo que cree en el poder y la riqueza acumulada. Vivimos para ser su contradicción y su salvación. Vivimos nuestras vidas con el mismo amor sacrificial que tanto conmovió a Cristo durante su vida entre nosotros. Cómo él representa la desinstalación total del Dios creador y liberador, así también nosotros. Estamos invitados por el bautismo a vivir y morir con ese mismo sentido de dar tiempo a los que viven entre nosotros.

La carta a los Hebreos nos dice que Cristo vive y muere para fundar nuestra unidad con Dios y para compartir su autoridad sobre la vida cristiana. La autoridad de Jesús ama, sirviendo a los demás. Para nosotros no hay otra autoridad. Nunca mandamos a nadie. Vivimos sólo para servir, para asegurar que todos tengan vida, comida, casa y trabajo en la libertad de una humanidad organizada. Con ese propósito vivía Jesús; para esto debemos vivir nosotros hoy.

Cristo sigue acompañándonos en nuestra vida y en el Evangelio, estas dos realidades siendo un pan partido para alimentar a todos. El Espíritu de Cristo nos mueve según los detalles de nuestra vida, con una defensa cuando hace falta o con ánimos cuando tenemos pereza. Así debemos seguir promoviendo la justicia, amor y compasión en el mundo.

En el Evangelio que se lee hoy, Jesús explica a los discípulos que todos los que dan testimonio en sus vidas, de su vida, muerte y resurrección recibirán el poder de Dios. Ese poder es siempre creador, liberador y fundado sobre la base del amor de los demás y nuestra obediencia a la alianza de Dios con nosotros

SAFEGUARD THE CHILDREN ARTICLE HELMETS SAVE LIVES

Bike riding is great fun and a good form of exercise for children — it is also great way to get around. A properly fitted helmet can reduce the risk of a head injury by almost 50%, but many children go without them.

Teach your children the importance of helmet safety and enforce rules about wearing them. You can also teach your children to use hand signals to show cars and other riders where they are going, and

to follow the rules of the road. For more safety tips, visit safekids.org/bike.

LOS CASCOS SALVAN VIDAS Andar en bicicleta es muy divertido y una

buena forma de ejercicio para los niños;

también es una excelente manera de moverse. Un casco bien ajustado puede reducir el riesgo de una lesión en la cabeza en casi un 50 por ciento, pero muchos niños

no lo usan. Enseñe a sus hijos la importancia de la seguridad del casco y

haga cumplir las normas sobre su uso.

También puede enseñar a sus hijos a usar señales con las manos para mostrarles a

los autos y a otros pasajeros por dónde van, y a seguir las reglas de tránsito.

Para obtener más consejos de seguridad, visite safekids.org/bike.

U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) offered the

following statement from its spokesperson, Chieko Noguchi,

director of public affairs.

“There have been too many school shootings, too much killing of the innocent. Our Catholic faith calls us to pray for those who have died and to bind the wounds of others, and we join our prayers along with the community in Uvalde and Archbishop Gustavo García-Siller. As we do so, each of us also needs to search our souls

for ways that we can do more to understand this epidemic of evil and violence and implore

our elected officials to help us take action.”

WHY IS IT A man wakes up after sleeping under an ADVERTISED blanket on an ADVERTISED mattress and pulls off ADVERTISED pajamas

bathes in an ADVERTISED shower shaves with an ADVERTISED razor

brushes his teeth with ADVERTISED toothpaste washes with ADVERTISED soap

puts on ADVERTISED clothes drinks a cup of ADVERTISED coffee

drives to work in an ADVERTISED car

and then . . . . refuses to ADVERTISE believing it doesn’t pay.

Later if business is poor he ADVERTISES it for sale.

WHY IS IT?
