In the Gospel for this Fifth Sunday of Easter Jesus makes another one of his “I Am” statements. He says: “I am the vine, you are the branches. Whoever remains in me and I in him will bear much fruit, because without me you can do nothing.” This image Jesus uses is really an invitation into a relation-ship with him. When we remain with Jesus and stay connected to him as a branch on the vine, we will bear the fruit of our faith. But as branches on the vine we also need to be pruned in order to bear more fruit. Jesus reminds us that we are pruned by his Word when we allow it to take root in our lives and are will-ing to follow his example of love. As we continue to celebrate the new life of the Easter season and see signs of new life around us this Spring, here are some questions to ask ourselves: Do our words and actions reflect our connection to the Vine? In what areas do our lives need to be pruned so that we can bear the good fruit of our faith? Next Sunday, May 6, at the Noon Mass, our parish will host the monthly diocesan Open Door Mass. This Mass is rotated among parishes in the diocese, and is an opportunity to especially welcome those with spe-cial needs or disabilities. There will also be a sign language interpreter present for the deaf and hearing impaired. As we strive to be a welcoming community, this will be an opportunity for us to raise awareness about ways we can be attentive to serving others. Please feel free to invite any family and friends who would like to attend. This Monday, April 30, we will welcome Bishop James Johnston to our parish to celebrate the Sacrament of Confirmation with our teens who have been preparing this past year. Bishop Johnston spends about an hour with our teens before the Confirmation Mass begins, as a way to get to know them and share about his life. We are grateful for this time our Bishop spends with our youth. We have about 90 high school teens receiving Confirmation this year. Please pray that the Holy Spirit will enliven their faith and continue to strengthen and guide them throughout their lives. As we enter the month of May, we remember that May is the month of Mothers. We especially honor our Blessed Mother, as she is the Mother of us all through her Son, Jesus. There will be special times to pray the Rosary throughout the month. Please see the bulletin for details. We also celebrate Mother’s Day 3

the weekend of May 12-13. You can honor your mother, living or deceased, by filling out the Mother’s Day envelope included in your May packet or by filling out your own envelope and including a contri-bution in their name. We will remember them at all the Masses May 12-13. Many Blessings!

• There is a strong sense of community at Presentation • There is strong leadership among staff and parishioners • Presentation feels like home • Presentation is a very welcoming community • Presentation has a large number of ministries, something for everyone, and many ways for parishioners to grow in their faith, be involved and share their gifts

Each year, the Knights of Columbus commit me from one fall weekend to exchange Tootsie Rolls for dona ons from the Lee’s Summit community. Each year, the Council is able to allocate some of these proceeds to a charitable program of their choice, which supports children with developmental disabili es. The K of C Council 6819 and its members generously chose the OLP F.I.R.E. Program as this year’s local recipient. OLP School and the F.I.R.E. pro-gram are apprecia ve for the Knights con nued support.

We had a busy week with field trips and Week of the Young Child Celebrations! Coming

Quinto Domingo de Pascua

Queridos hermanos y hermanas, hoy celebramos el Quinto Domingo de Pascua y las lecturas de hoy nos invi-tan a reflexionar el pasaje sobre la Vid y los sarmientos. En su enseñanza, Jesús tomaba frecuentemente el punto de partida de las cosas familiares de quienes le escuchaban y que estaban ante la vista de todos. De tal modo que, mien-tras oían con la fantasía, también ellos podían ver; palabra e imagen se sustentaban una a la otra. La vida de los cam-pos, sobre todo, le ofrece imágenes y apuntes. Una vez, nos había hablado sobre la cuestión con el asunto del grano, hoy nos habla con la imagen del sarmiento y de la vid. “Yo soy la verdadera vid, y mi Padre es el labrador”. A todo sarmiento mío que no da fruto lo arranca, y a todo el que da fruto lo poda, para que dé más fruto». La afirma-ción más importante, contenida en estas palabras, es que nosotros estamos unidos a Jesús con un vínculo tan profundo y vital como el que une el sarmiento a la vid. El sarmiento es una ramificación, una parte de la vid: entre ambas cosas recorre el mismo humor, savia o linfa. No se podría pensar en una unidad más Íntima. En el plano espiritual, esta savia es la vida divina, que se nos ha dado en el bautismo, esto es, el Espíritu Santo. Ésta es una unión más estrecha que la que hay entre la madre y el hijo, que lleva aún dentro del seno. Entra la madre y el hijo recorre la misma sangre; la respiración y el alimento de la madre pasan al hijo. Pero, el hijo no muere si se separa de la madre; es más, llegado a un cierto punto, para vivir debe abandonar el seno materno y vivir por cuenta suya; muere si permanece unido a la madre más tiempo del normal. En nuestro caso, pasa al contrario: el sarmiento no trae fruto y muere si se separa de la vid y vive si permanece unido a ella. Pero, no es de esto de lo que queremos hablar, sino más bien de lo que Jesús dice del destino del sarmiento. Jesús presenta dos casos. El primero, negativo: el sarmiento está seco, no lleva fruto, y, por ello, viene corta-do y arrojado fuera; el segundo, positivo: el sarmiento está aún vivo y vegeta y por ello viene a ser podado. Ya este contraste nos expresa que el hecho de podar no es un acto hostil contra el sarmiento. El viñador espera aún más de él, sabe que puede producir frutos, tiene confianza en ello. Lo mismo sucede en el plano espiritual. Cuando Dios inter-viene con la cruz en nuestra vida, no quiere decir que él esté airado contra nosotros. Precisamente, lo contrario. La Escritura dice: «A quien ama el Señor, le corrige; y azota a todos los hijos que reconoce» (Hebreos 12, 6). En todo caso sería de temer cuando las cosas en este mundo van demasiado bien; pues, esto del mismo modo sucede tanto al justo como al impío; hasta al contrario, más frecuente-mente al justo que al impío. En la Biblia, oímos frecuentemente lamentarse al justo

con Dios a causa de la “prosperidad de los malvados”, que, “siempre tranquilos, aumentan su riqueza” (cfr. Salmo 73,12) Y para los que no parece haber angustia. Pero, ven-gamos, ahora, a la finalidad por la que el viñador poda el sarmiento y hace “llorar” a la vid, como se acostumbra a decir. ¿Es precisamente necesario? Sí; Y por un motivo muy sencillo: si no viene podada, la fuerza de la vid se dispersa, quizás haga más racimos de lo debido, con la consecuencia de no conseguir llevarlos a todos a la ade-cuada maduración y rebajar la graduación del vino. Si per-manecen las vides sin ser podadas durante largo tiempo, sin más, se vuelven silvestres y producen sólo hojas y uva silvestre. Lo mismo sucede en nuestra vida. No sólo en la vida espiritual, sino aún en nuestra vida humana. Vivir es escoger y escoger es renunciar. La persona, que en la vida quiere hacer demasiadas cosas o cultiva una infinidad de intereses y de hobby, se dispersa; no destacará en nada. Es necesario tener la valentía de hacer elecciones, dejar aba-tirse algunos intereses secundarios para concentrarse sobre algunos principales. ¡Podar, podar! Esto en la vida cristia-na es todavía más verdadero. La santidad se asemeja a la escultura. Leonardo da Vinci ha definido la escultura como “el arte de quitar”. Todas las demás artes consisten en poner algo: color sobre la tela en la pintura, piedra sobre piedra en la arquitectura, nota sobre nota en la música. Sólo la escultura consiste en quitar: quitar los pedazos de mármol, que sobran, para ha-cer brotar la figura, que se tiene en la mente. De igual for-ma, la perfección cristiana se obtiene así; quitando, hacien-do caer las piezas inútiles, esto es, los deseos, las ambicio-nes, los proyectos y las tendencias carnales, que nos disi-pan por todas partes y no nos permiten concluir ninguna obra.

¡Muchas Bendiciones!
