From the Desk of Fr. Pat

Desde el Escritorio de P. Pat

Easter is a time of “new life”. One of the areas, I think our parish is being called to show “new life” is getting to Mass on time on Sunday mornings! Not too long ago our Holy Father, Pope Francis, spoke exactly to this point and I want to share some of his reflections with you this morning. The celebration opens with the Introductory Rites, the Greeting, the Act of Penitence, the Kyrie Eleison, the Gloria Hymn and the Collect Prayer. It is the Collect of the prayer intentions of all peoples; and that Collect of the peoples’ intention rises to heaven as a prayer. These Introductory Rites— is “to ensure that the faithful who come together as one establish communion and dispose themselves to listen properly to God’s word and to celebrate the Eucharist worthily”. It is not a good habit to look at your watch and say: “I am on time; I arrive after the sermon and this way I fulfil the precept”. Mass begins with the sign of the Cross, with these Introductory Rites, because there we begin to adore God as a community. And for this reason it is important to make sure you do not arrive late, but rather early, in order to prepare the heart for this rite, for this community celebration. The altar is Christ: it is the figure of Christ. When we look at the altar, we are looking exactly at Christ. The Mass is an encounter of love with Christ, who, by offering his Body on the Cross, became “the priest, the altar and the lamb”. And the whole community around the altar, which is Christ, not to look at each other, but to look at Christ, because Christ is the center of the community; he is not distant from it. Then there is the sign of the Cross. Please, mom and dad, grandparents, teach the children, from the beginning— from a tender age— to make the sign of the Cross properly. And explain to them that it is having Jesus’ Cross as protection. When we make the sign of the Cross, we not only commemorate our Baptism, but affirm that the liturgical prayer is the encounter with God in Jesus Christ, who became flesh, died on the Cross and rose in glory for us. The priest offers the liturgical Greeting with the expression: “The Lord be with you”. In this way we express the common faith and the mutual wish to abide with the Lord and to live in unity with the entire community. All of us are sinners; and for this reason at the start of Mass we ask forgiveness. It is the act of Penitence. It is not a matter of only thinking about the sins committed, but much more: it is the invitation to confess our sins before God and before the community, with humility and sincerity. If the Eucharist truly renders present the Paschal Mystery, meaning Christ’s passing from death to life, then the first thing we have to do is recognize our own situation of death in order to rise again with him to new life. This helps us understand how important the Act of Penitence is. When we come “a little late” to Mass, these are the things we miss, and so, the moments given to enter more deeply into the mystery are missing and we often leave Mass feeling empty. Come on time and see the difference it can make! God Bless You!

La Pascua es un tiempo de "nueva vida". Una de las áreas, creo que nuestra parroquia está siendo llamada a mostrar que la "nueva vida" es llegar a Misa a tiempo los domingos por la mañana! No hace mucho, nuestro Santo Padre, el Papa Francisco, habló exactamente sobre este punto y quiero compartir algunas de sus reflexiones con ustedes hoy. La celebración inicia con los Ritos Introductorios, el Saludo, el Acto de Penitencial, el Kyrie Eleison, el Gloria y la Oracion Colecta. Que recoge las intenciones de todas las personas; y las eleva al cielo como una oración. Estos Ritos Introductorios son para "asegurar que los fieles se unen como uno y establezcan la comunión y se dispongan a escuchar apropiadamente la Palabra de Dios y celebrar la Eucaristía dignamente ". No es una buena costumbre mirar el reloj y decir: "Llegué a tiempo; Llego después del sermón y así cumplo el precepto ". La misa comienza con la señal de la cruz, con estos ritos introductorios, porque allí comenzamos a adorar a Dios como comunidad. Y por esta razón, es importante asegurarse de no llegar tarde, sino temprano, con el fin de preparar el corazón para este rito, para la celebración comunitaria. El altar es Cristo: es la figura de Cristo. Cuando miramos el altar, estamos mirando exactamente a Cristo. La Misa es un encuentro de amor con Cristo que, al ofrecer su Cuerpo en la Cruz, se convierte en "el sacerdote, el altar y el cordero". Y toda la comunidad alrededor del altar, que es Cristo, no se miran, sino se miran a Cristo, porque Cristo es el centro de la comunidad; él no está lejos de eso. Luego está la señal de la Cruz. Por favor, mamá y papá, abuelos, enséñenles a los niños, desde el comienzo — desde una tierna edad a hacer la señal de la Cruz correctamente. Y explíqueles que está teniendo a la Cruz de Jesús como protección. Cuando hacemos la señal de la Cruz, no solo conmemoramos nuestro Bautismo, sino que afirmamos que la oración litúrgica es el encuentro con Dios en Jesucristo, que se hizo carne, murió en la Cruz y resucitó a la gloria por nosotros. El sacerdote ofrece el Saludo litúrgico con la expresión: "El Señor esté con ustedes". De esta manera expresamos la fe común y el deseo mutuo de permanecer con el Señor y vivir en unidad con toda la comunidad. Todos nosotros somos pecadores; y por esta razón, al comienzo de la Misa, pedimos perdón. Es el acto de Penitencia. No se trata solo de pensar en los pecados cometidos, sino mucho más: es la invitación a confesar nuestros pecados ante Dios y ante la comunidad, con humildad y sinceridad. Si la Eucaristía realmente hace presente el Misterio Pascual, es decir, el paso de Cristo de la muerte a la vida, entonces lo primero que tenemos que hacer es reconocer nuestra propia situación de muerte para elevarnos nuevamente a una vida nueva. Esto nos ayuda a entender cuán importante es la Ley de Penitencia. Cuando llegamos "un poco tarde" a la misa, estas son las cosas que perdemos, por lo que faltan los momentos para entrar más profundamente en el misterio y muchas veces salimos de la misa sintiéndonos vacíos. Venga a tiempo y vea la diferencia que puede hacer! ¡Dios te bendiga!

Pascoa e tempo de “vida nova”. Um dos pontos que podemos melhorar e chegar pontualmente na missa dominical. Há algum tempo o Papa Francisco comentou sobre isso. A missa começa com o rito introdutório, a saudação inicial, ato penitencial, gloria e oração da coleta. Ela e a coleta das intenções de todos os povos apresentadas como orações que se elevam ao céu. O rito introdutório estabelece a comunhão entre todas as pessoas e as prepara para ouvir a Palavra de Deus e celebrar a Eucaristia corretamente. E feio olhar para o relógio e dizer: “não estou atrasado, eu cheguei após a homilia e estou cumprindo o preceito. A missa começa com o sinal da cruz, são os ritos introdutórios que unem a assembleia em oração. Por isso não podemos chegar atrasados, ao contrário, deveríamos chegar antes da missa para ter tempo de preparar o nosso coração para a missa, com um momento de concentração e reflexão. O altar representa Cristo. Olhando para o altar estamos olhando para Ele. A missa e um encontro de amor com Cristo, que oferecendo seu corpo pregado na cruz se tornou sacerdote, altar do cordeiro. Toda a comunidade ao redor do altar deve olhar para Cristo como o centro da comunidade. Pais e avos, ensinem as crianças a fazerem o sinal da cruz desde pequenas e corretamente. Expliquem a elas que a cruz de Cristo nos protege. Quando traçamos o sinal da cruz, mais do que lembrar o nosso batismo, nos confirmamos a oração litúrgica que é encontro com Deus em Jesus Cristo que se fez homem, morreu na cruz e ressuscitou para nos salvar. O padre saúda a assembleia assim: “O Senhor esteja convosco”. Assim expressamos a nossa comunhão de fé e o desejo mutuo de obedecer ao Senhor, viver formar unidade na comunidade. Todos nos somos pecadores, por isso no inicio da missa pedimos perdão dos nossos pecados no Ato Penitencial. Não se trata apenas de pensar nos pecados somos convidados a reconhecer nossos pecados diante de Deus e da comunidade, com humildade e sinceridade. Uma vez que a Eucaristia torna presente o mistério pascal de Cristo, significando a passagem de Jesus da morte para a vida, a primeira coisa que devemos fazer e reconhecer nossos pecados para passarmos com Ele ao estado de graça. Isso nos ajuda a entender a importância do Ato Penitencial. Quando chegamos atrasado no missa, nos perdemos essa parte tão importante da missa e as vezes saímos com uma impressão de vazio. Nunca atrase na missa e você vai perceber a diferença. Que Deus te abençoe!

Wielkanoc jest okresem odnowy, jest wchodzeniem w nowe życie. Jednym z kroków wchodzenia w nowe życie powinno być punktualne uczęszczanie na niedzielna msze sw. Nie tak dawno temu, papież Franciszek wypowiedział się na ten temat: " obchodzenie kolejnych części mszy świętej takich jak :wprowadzenie, pozdrowienie , akt pokuty, hymn, ewangelia , homilia, credo i wspólna modlitwa , wszystkie te elementy stanowią intencje wszystkich ludzi. Znoszone są one do nieba jako zbiorowa prośba." Zbiorowa modlitwa czyni cuda. Bądźmy zawsze na czas w kościele. Poświęćmy Bogu te jedna pełna godzinę. Nie patrzmy na zegarek. Bóg ma dla nas zawsze czas. Chrystus jest na ołtarzu ,kiedy patrzymy na ołtarz widzimy Chrystusa. Msza to zjednoczenie się z Bogiem. Chrystus , który oddał za nas życie na krzyżu jest naszym ołtarzem, księdzem i barankiem. Od najmłodszych lat powinnismy uczyć nasze dzieci znaku krzyża. Znak ten ochrania nas i świadczy o naszej przynależności do kościoła katolickiego. Wszyscy jesteśmy grzesznikami i z tego powodu na początku mszy sw. prosimy o przebaczenie. Każdy powinien prawdziwie i z pełnym oddaniem uczestniczyć we mszy sw. Pamietajmy tez aby zabrać nasze dzieci; im wcześniej zaczną obcować z Bogiem tym dłużej pozostaną mu wierni. Przychodzmy na czas do kościoła aby w pełni przeżyć msze sw. Z Bożym błogosławieństwem!
