A Word about the word Una palabra acera la palabra

(John 16:12-15) Today we celebrate as a Church “Trinity Sunday” , how God is a Trinity of three Persons, and yet one God. This Solemnity in the Church underscores how God in his very nature is relational. God is, on a very fundamental level “personal”. There is a relationship between the persons of the Holy Trinity as well as a relationship with us, “persons” made in the holy image of God. This is a feast of the Church whose full purpose and meaning can be missed. There are many who come to Church regularly and correctly think of God as almighty and all powerful, transcendent, all knowing and such, but miss, for whatever reason that God is also eminent, present in his creation and present to us, if we choose to be in the relationship with him that he desires and offers to us. Today in John’s Gospel we hear Jesus declare; “Everything the Father has is mine; for this reason I told you that he will take from what is mine and declare it to you.” What was said by our Lord is peculiar. He is speaking on the level of the substantive. The stuff that makes up and constitutes something, in this case, the very stuff that God is made of is also his. This substance that is God, and is Jesus, he bequeaths to his chosen disciples. With both our language and our minds limited . Continued on page 6

Juan 16:12-15 Hoy celebremos como iglesia “Domingo

de la Trinidad” como Dios es tres personas en una Trinidad y aun así, un solo Dios. Esta solemnidad en la iglesia ensena como Dios en su naturaleza es relacional. Dios está en un concepto “personal”. Hay una relación entre las personas de la santa trinidad, al igual que la relación con nosotros “personas” hechos a imagen santa de Dios. Esta es una fiesta de la iglesia que su propósito y significado se puede perder. Hay muchos que vienen a la iglesia regularmente y correctamente piensan en Dios como todopoderoso, transcendente, que todo lo sabe y pierden por alguna razón que Dios es también eminente, presente en su creación y presente con nosotros, si escogemos estar en relación con el que él quiere y desea con nosotros. Hoy en el evangelio de Juan oímos a Jesús declarar; todo lo que Dios tiene es mío; por esta razón les dije que El toma de lo que es mío y se lo da a ustedes” lo que nuestro Señor dijo es peculiar. El está hablando en un sustantivo. Las cosas que hacen y constituyen algo, en este caso, la misma cosa de lo cual Dios está hecho es también suya. Esta substancia que es Dios y es Jesús, en las dispone para sus discípulos escogidos. Con el lenguaje y con nuestras mentes Continua en la pagina 6

This looks like a big planter, but it is really a cistern in disguise. As you know, we had a big problem with

flooding in the front of the office building and school. No more! The excess water flows into the cistern! UCSN (UNO) is having the area landscaped, so the

entire front will have a fresh, new look. This structure was designed and built by Father Paul

and a few helpers, so the cost was minimal.

First Communion Mass, May 15

Mothers Day Breakfast May Crowning Our parish youth group served lots of moms a complimentary breakfast on May 8. Each one also received a gift

bag containing a gladiola bulb to plant and a special prayer.

Many thanks to Carmen and

A Word on the Gospel Una palabra en el evangelio

continued from page 3 by human finiteness, one really has to think it through to realize that what Jesus is saying is extraordinary! Jesus makes a gift to us of the very stuff that comprises God; what a phenomenal gift, and what a personal one.

Sadly, in this world of broken marriages and fractured families, of text replacing talk and touch, the experience of being in right relationship with another person on an intimate, truly loving level is foreign to many. A few years back when we had the string of suicides at the parish. A common factor in the experiences of each and every one who took his own life was a falling out of relationship with the very friends and family with whom they should have had the closest relationship. A spouse would report that she did not know how desperate her husband had become. Family members would report that the last time I talked with their sister, she gave no indication how deeply she was hurting. In many of the cases I held my tongue, but thought to myself, a person does not always use, and should not have to use, words to ask for help. You also just told me that the person was holed up in their room for a month. What does that say? A person can say I am OK, but a person who does not come out of their room except to use the bathroom is not OK. And so they didn’t ask for help, but they needed it! Ironically, in this age of mass communication of all types, so many people are feeling so isolated and on their own. We seem to be becoming afraid to reach out authentically and honestly with the people we live with and work with and about as far from mirroring the Holy Trinity and the Holy, loving connectedness found in the Holy Trinity. I am afraid this will continue until we take to heart that we need one another in an authentic way on a spiritual level, and also take to heart what Jesus promised repeatedly in the course of his active ministry. To his disciples Jesus promised Peace. Jesus was not talking about ending war, but about a balanced state of mind; call it an end of war in your head if you wish! As Jesus said in the Resurrection account at the end of John’s Gospel : “Do not be afraid! … My Peace I give to you, my Peace I leave with you!” Let us take to heart this simple yet profound message. Let us be men and women of unwavering faith, knowing that in growing in relationship with God, we also grow in right relationship one with another, and that with healthy strong spiritual bonds, with genuinely good relationships, we will never be alone again. Father Paul

Viene de la pagina 3 limitadas a la forma humana, uno verdaderamente tiene que pensarlo bien para darse cuenta que lo que Jesús esta diciendo es extraordinario! Jesús nos hace un regalo de la misma substancia que es Dios; que regalo tan fenómeno y tan personal. Penosamente, en este mundo de matrimonios rotos y familias destrozadas, y textos reemplazando el toque y la conversación, la experiencia de estar en una relación correcta con otra persona en una forma intima y amorosa es extraño para muchos. Unos años atrás cuando tuvimos una serie de suicidios en la parroquia, un factor que estuvo presente en cada uno de estos suicidios fue una caída en la relación que habían tenido con sus amistades y familias. Un conyugue reportaba que no sabía como de desesperado su esposo estaba. Miembros de familia decían que la última vez que hablaron con su hermana, no daba indicación lo herida que estaba. En muchos de los casos me aguante la lengua pero pensé para mí mismo, una persona no debería tener que usar palabras para pedir ayuda, también me dijo que una persona fue sujetada en su cuarto por un mes. Que dice esto? Una persona puede decir, estoy bien, pero una persona que no sale de su cuarto, excepto para ir al baño, no está bien, aunque no pidieron ayuda. La necesitaban! Irónicamente, en esta época de comunicación masiva de todas las formas, muchas personas se están sintiendo alejados y en su soledad. Nos estamos volviendo con miedo a buscar autentica y honestamente ayuda con las mismas personas que vivimos y trabajamos y muy lejos de asimilar la santa trinidad y la conexión santa y amorosa que se encuentra en ella. Me temo que esto continuara hasta que tomemos de corazón que nos necesitamos unos a otros en una forma autentica y espiritual y también tomar en serio lo que Jesús prometió repetidamente en el curso de ministerio. A estos discípulos El le prometió paz, El no estaba prometiendo que acabaría la guerra, sino un balance mental, llámale el fin de la guerra si quieres! Como Jesús dijo en la historia de la resurrección en el evangelio de Juan; “no tengan miedo”… mi paz les dejo, mi paz les doy a ustedes” tomemos de corazón el simple pero profundo mensaje. Vamos a ser hombres y mujeres con una fe inquebrantable, sabiendo que creciendo en una relación con Dios, también crecemos en la relación unos con otros y con un apegue saludable y espiritual, y con relaciones genuinas, nunca estaremos solos. Padre Paul
