<strong>St</strong>. <strong>James</strong>—<strong>St</strong>. <strong>Leo</strong> <strong>Catholic</strong> <strong>Community</strong> is under the pastoral care of the Eudist Fathers, or Congregation of Jesus <strong>and</strong> Mary. We owe our<br />

name to Saint John Eudes who founded the Congregation in France in 1643. The Eudists currently operate in 15 countries, most of which are<br />

in the developing world. Evangelization, mainly with the poor <strong>and</strong> the youth, is our primary purpose, as well as formation to ministry in the<br />

training of diocesan priests <strong>and</strong> lay ministers. Our motto is “To Serve Christ <strong>and</strong> His Church.” For more information visit:<br />

Año de la fe<br />

De la carta apostólica “Puerta de la fe” del Papa Benedicto XVI<br />

“El Año de la fe será también una buena oportunidad para intensificar<br />

el testimonio de la caridad. San Pablo nos recuerda:<br />

«Ahora subsisten la fe, la esperanza y la caridad, estas tres. Pero<br />

la mayor de ellas es la caridad» (1 Co 13, 13).”<br />

Nuestra Gratitud<br />

Por medio de este boletín quiero dar las gracias a todas las personas<br />

que con su trabajo, dedicación y servicio ministerial se<br />

hizo posible la celebración del Misterio Pascual durante la Semana<br />

Santa P. John Howard, CJM; P. Juan Castillo, CJM, y<br />

la Hna. Zita Toto, OLC.<br />

¡¡¡Felices Pascuas de Resurrección!!!.<br />

Registraciones para el Catecismo<br />

A partir del viernes 5 de abril iniciamos las registraciones para el<br />

catecismo período <strong>2013</strong>‐14 después de las misas, y durante la<br />

semana puede llamar al (858) 755‐2545. Ext. 102<br />

REFLECTION DOMINICAL<br />

Nuestra reflexión sobre las lecturas de Pascua puede ser<br />

tan profundo como cualquier otro a lo largo de todo el año<br />

litúrgico. <strong>St</strong>ewards entender<br />

que esta vida no es<br />

más que el preludio de la<br />

próxima vida ‐ es por eso<br />

que vivir como mayordomos.<br />

Reconocen que lo<br />

que buscan es una recompensa<br />

celestial, no una<br />

terrenal. Así pues, la<br />

pregunta que debemos<br />

preguntarnos no es "¿Qué<br />

hay en esto para mí" La<br />

pregunta que el buen<br />

camarero le pregunta es:<br />

"¿Cómo puedo servir"<br />

Estamos llamados a ser un<br />

pueblo de Pascua. Hay<br />

una diferencia importante entre ser un pueblo de Pascua y<br />

sólo unas personas de la Iglesia. Si somos verdaderamente<br />

un pueblo Pascual, nuestra atención se centra en la victoria<br />

que la resurrección de Cristo nos presenta.<br />

Pascua y la promesa que nos presenta nos hacen un pueblo<br />

alegre, que adoran con un sentido de esperanza y confianza.<br />

Gente de Pascua como buenos administradores vivir<br />

sus vidas con una actitud de gratitud, no un sentido de obligación.<br />

Pueblo Pascual no le temo a la muerte, sino que<br />

tenga consuelo en las promesas y la salvación de Cristo.<br />

Hechos 10:34 a, 37‐43; Sal 118: 1‐2, 16‐17, 22‐23; Col 3, 1‐4; Jn 20, 1‐9<br />

The seven‐week Returning <strong>Catholic</strong>s<br />

Program is designed to assist<br />

those who wish to consider returning to the Church. The<br />

program includes updating in the beliefs <strong>and</strong> practices of<br />

the <strong>Catholic</strong> Church, listening to the stories of those who<br />

have been away <strong>and</strong>, most importantly, helping them<br />

reconcile any negative feelings they may have about the<br />

Church. Many of the team members have themselves<br />

been away from the Church for a number of years <strong>and</strong> are<br />

uniquely suited to appreciating the stories of those who<br />

are considering returning. The program ends with an<br />

opportunity to experience the Sacrament of Reconciliation<br />

in the context of a relaxed scripture‐based reconciliation<br />

service.<br />

alms with a special focus on the poorest members of our global community. Our<br />

Republic, Pakistan <strong>and</strong> the United <strong>St</strong>ates. Through our Lenten prayers <strong>and</strong> donations,<br />

we have touched the lives of millions of people served by <strong>Catholic</strong> Relief<br />

Services, our representative to the poorest communities in the world. Please return your Rice Bowls to the Rice Bowl<br />

donation box as you enter church. If possible please count the money in your Rice Bowls <strong>and</strong> make a check payable to<br />

<strong>St</strong>. <strong>James</strong>. Please write “CRS Rice Bowl” in the memo line of the check. Thank you for your generosity.

Feast of Faith<br />

A walk-through of the Mass from beginning to end<br />

The Gloria<br />

The Gloria, or Glory to God, follows the penitential rite.<br />

Both are acts of praise. In the penitential rite, we sing of<br />

the mercy of Christ. In the Gloria we praise God’s saving<br />

action in the universe.<br />

The Gloria is a relatively late addition to the Mass. It first<br />

appeared in the Roman liturgy in the sixth century, <strong>and</strong><br />

then it was sung only by the pope—<strong>and</strong> only on Christmas!<br />

With time, the hymn came to be sung by bishops on<br />

major feasts, <strong>and</strong> then by priests; finally, it became the<br />

song of the entire assembly. With the advent of more<br />

elaborate musical settings, the people gradually stopped<br />

singing the Gloria, until this song of the people became<br />

the exclusive domain of the priest <strong>and</strong> the choir. But the<br />

liturgical reforms have restored it to its place as primarily<br />

the song of the assembly.<br />

Our reflection on the <strong>Easter</strong> readings may be as profound as<br />

any throughout the liturgical year. <strong>St</strong>ewards underst<strong>and</strong> that<br />

this life is merely a prelude<br />

to the next life — that is<br />

why they live as stewards.<br />

They recognize that what<br />

they seek is a heavenly reward,<br />

not an earthly one.<br />

Thus the question they<br />

must ask is not “What is in<br />

this for me” The question<br />

the good steward asks is,<br />

“How can I serve”<br />

We are called to be an <strong>Easter</strong><br />

people. There is a significant<br />

difference between<br />

being an <strong>Easter</strong> people <strong>and</strong><br />

just a Church people. If we<br />

are truly an <strong>Easter</strong> people,<br />

our focus is on the victory<br />

which Christ’s Resurrection presents to us.<br />

<strong>Easter</strong> <strong>and</strong> the promise it presents us make us a joyful people,<br />

who worship with a sense of hope <strong>and</strong> confidence. <strong>Easter</strong> people<br />

as good stewards live their lives with an attitude of gratitude,<br />

not a sense of obligation. <strong>Easter</strong> people do not fear<br />

death, but have comfort in the promises <strong>and</strong> salvation of<br />

Christ.<br />
