Traces of Grace
Dear Fellow Parishioners;
The season of Lent has had me thinking. Something which is
not all that sacrificial for me is to read more during Lent. It
means I have to put aside other things to sit down and pon-
der others thoughts about the Lord and about life.
One of my readings came from an author, Scott Peck, who is
probably best remembered for his popular book, ‘The Road
Less Traveled’. In a later book, ‘Further Along the Road
Less Traveled’, Scott ponders the meaning of his life in the
context of his own death. He quotes Albert Schweitzer, a
theologian and medical missionary;
“We must all become familiar with the thought of
death if we want to grow into really good people.
We need not think of it every day or every hour. But
when the path of life leads us to some vantage point
where the scene around us fades away and we con-
template the distant view right to the end, let us not
close our eyes. Let us pause for a moment, look at
the distant view, and then carry on. Thinking about
death in this way produces love for life. When we are
familiar with death, we accept each week, each day,
as a gift. Only if we are able thus to accept life- bit by
bit- does it become precious.”
As a faith community, we have been pondering these things in
the world around us with budget cuts, earthquakes, and civil
unrest in the Middle East. We have carried our own burdens
and sadness’s and recognized that we need the saving grace
of Christ. We have been walking more deeply with the Scrip-
tures as we have travelled along the way of Christ in Lent,
coming now to the Easter moment, our vantage point in
time.
May Easter for you be more than merely a passing glance at
your life and the world around you. Please know that your
presence in our community is meaningful and no matter
whether you are here every week or not to praise God, you
are part of us and we hope that we are part of you.
Many thanks to all those who make this community vibrant
and full of grace. I am extremely grateful to all those who
gave of themselves in this Lenten season and Holy Week in
preparation for this Easter moment.
Together in Christ;
Fr. Steve Sallot
Pastor

Rasgos de Gracia
Queridos Feligreses;
En esta temporada de Cuaresma he estado pensando. Algo que no
ha sido tanto sacrificio para mí es tener que leer más durante la
Cuaresma. Tengo que hacer a un lado otras cosas para sentarme a
meditar sobre el Señor y la vida en general.
Una de mis lecturas procedía de un autor llamado, Scott Peck,
quien es mejor conocido por su libro, 'El camino menos recorrido'.
En un libro posterior llamado, 'Más a lo largo del camino menos
recorrido', Scott reflexiona sobre el significado de su vida en el
contexto de su propia muerte. Cita a Albert Schweitzer, teólogo y
médico misionero;
"Debemos todos familiarizarnos con el pensamiento de
muerte si queremos crecer y ser personas realmente bue-
nas. No necesitamos pensar en eso a cada hora o cada día.
Pero cuando el camino de la vida nos lleva a algún lugar
remoto donde se desvanece la escena que nos rodea pero
contemplamos con claridad lo que tenemos distante hasta
el final., no cerremos los ojos. Hagamos una pausa por un
momento, miremos lo que hay a lo distante, y continue-
mos. Pensando en la muerte de esta manera produce
amor por la vida. Cuando estamos familiarizados con la
muerte, aceptamos cada semana, cada día, como un rega-
lo. Sólo si somos capaces, por tanto, de aceptar la vida-
poco a poco-así se hace preciosa”
Como una comunidad de fe que somos, hemos ido acumulando
estas cosas en medio de este mundo que nos rodea con recortes
presupuestarios, terremotos y los disturbios civiles en el Medio
Oriente. Hemos cargado con nuestra propia tristeza y problemas
reconociendo que necesitamos la fuerza de Cristo. Hemos profun-
dizado más en las Escrituras y recorrido el camino de Cristo en
Cuaresma, ahora viene el momento de la Semana Santa, nuestro
punto a alcanzar en este tiempo.
Que la Cuaresma sea para ustedes más que un breve pasaje de su
vida y del mundo a su alrededor. Sepa usted que su presencia en
nuestra comunidad significa mucho para nosotros y no importa si
usted viene cada semana o no para alabar a Dios, usted es parte
de nosotros y esperamos que nosotros seamos parte usted.
Muchas gracias a todos aquellos que hacen esta comunidad vibran-
te y llena de gracia. Estoy muy agradecido a todos aquellos que
dieron un poco de sí mismos en esta temporada de Cuaresma y la
Semana Santa en preparación para este momento de Pascua.
Juntos en Cristo;
Pbro. Steve Sallot

Meditando la Palabra
La noche de Pascua es “una noche de vela en honor al Se-
ñor” (Ex 12, 42). En esta noche, el Señor “pasó” para salvar y
liberar a su pueblo oprimido por la esclavitud; en esta noche
Cristo pasó a la vida, venciendo a la gran enemiga del ser
humano, la muerte. Esta noche es celebración y memorial de
nuestro “paso” en Dios y hacia Dios, por medio del Bautismo,
la Confirmación y la Eucaristía.
La liturgia es siempre una re-presentación del acontecimiento
fundamental de la salvación: la muerte y resurrección de Jesu-
cristo. Pero esta celebración de hoy tiene una intensidad úni-
ca. El conjunto de símbolos de que está entretejida la Vigilia
Pascual expresa bien el sentido de la resurrección de Cristo
para la vida del ser humano y del mundo.
Es una liturgia de luz. El mundo de las tinieblas es atravesado
por la luz, Cristo resucitado, en quien Dios ha realizado de
forma definitiva su proyecto de salvación. En Él, primogénito
de quienes resucitan de entre los muertos, se ilumina el desti-
no del ser humano, y su identidad de “imagen y semejanza” de
Dios.
En la liturgia de la palabra meditamos en siete lecturas del An-
tiguo Testamento que forman un compendio de la historia de
salvación. Sabiendo que la Pascua de Cristo es el cumplimiento
y la recapitulación de todo, la Iglesia medita lo que Dios ha
realizado en la historia; porque esa serie de acontecimientos y
de promesas son realidades que se hacen presentes en el
“hoy” de la celebración.
Es también una liturgia bautismal. El pueblo llamado por Dios a
la libertad tiene que pasar a través de un agua que destruye y
regenera. Como Israel atravesó el Mar Rojo, así también Cris-
to atravesó el mar de la muerte y salió de él triunfante. En las
aguas del bautismo es destruido el mundo del pecado y emer-
ge la nueva creación. El agua, fecundada por el Espíritu Santo,
genera al pueblo de los hijos e hijas de Dios: un pueblo de
santos, un pueblo de profetas, sacerdotes y reyes.
Finalmente, la liturgia eucarística es la cumbre de todo el itine-
rario Cuaresmal y de la presente celebración. El pueblo rege-
nerado en el bautismo por el poder del Espíritu es admitido al
banquete pascual, que corona la nueva era de reconciliación y
libertad. Participando del Cuerpo y la Sangre del Señor, la Igle-
sia se ofrece como sacrificio espiritual, para adentrarse cada
vez más en la Pascua de Cristo. Él permanece para siempre
con los suyos en el sacramento de su total entrega, para que
ellos aprendan a pasar cada día de la muerte a la vida, en el
amor. Que esta celebración de la Eucaristía produzca en noso-
tros todos los frutos de la Pascua salvadora de Jesús.
Pbro. Mario Juárez
† Easter Sunday
Meditating on the Word
The night of Easter is “a night of vigil in honor of the
Lord" (Ex 12, 42). On this night, the Lord "passed over" to
save and liberate his people oppressed by slavery, on this
night Christ came to life, beating the great enemy of man,
death. Tonight is a celebration and memorial of our "passage"
in God and to God, through Baptism, Confirmation and
Eucharist.
The liturgy is always a re-presentation of the fundamental
event of salvation: the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
But this celebration today has a unique intensity. The set of
symbols that weaves the Easter Vigil expresses well the
meaning of the resurrection of Christ for human life and the
world.
It is a liturgy of light. The world of darkness is pierced by
light, the risen Christ, in whom God has made a definitive
plan of his salvation. In him, the firstborn raised from the
dead, illuminates the fate of human beings, and their identity
as "image and likeness” of God.
In the liturgy of the word we meditate in seven Old Testa-
ment readings that form a summary of the history of salva-
tion. Knowing that the Resurrection of Christ is the fulfill-
ment and the recapitulation of all, the Church meditates on
what God has done in history, for that series of events and
promises are realities that are present in the "today" for the
celebration.
It is also a Baptismal liturgy. The people called by God to
freedom have to pass through water that destroys and regen-
erates. As Israel crossed the Red Sea, so Christ passed
through the sea of death and came out triumphant. A world
of sin is destroyed in the waters of Baptism and the new
creation emerges. The water, impregnated by the Holy Spirit,
creates the people of the sons and daughters of God: a holy
people, a people of prophets, priests and kings.
Finally, the Eucharistic liturgy is the summit of the entire
Lenten journey and this celebration. The people regenerated
in baptism by the Spirit’s power are admitted to the Passover
meal, which crowns the new era of reconciliation and free-
dom. Participating in the Body and Blood of Christ, the
Church is offered as a spiritual sacrifice to go deeper and
deeper in the Passover of Christ. He remains forever with us,
his family, through the sacrament of his total self-giving, so
that we may learn to spend every day from death to life, in
love. May this celebration of the Eucharist produce in us all
the fruits of Christ's saving Passover.

Respect Life
PROTECTION OF HUMAN RIGHTS
"Human rights must exist apart from governments.
Governments cannot create or destroy human rights,
but should protect human rights. If a government fails
to protect rights, this doesn't preclude the existence of
rights. It only means that the government has ignored
or even scorned its duty". Keith Mason, Personhood

“We do not have to choose between the works of
charity and the tasks of justice, since we are called to
do both. We can provide blankets AND raise our
voices against unjust structures. We can, to echo the
words of Archbishop Dom Camera, feed the hungry
AND confront systems that create hunger and pov-
erty.” - Fr. John Heagle, Justice Rising p.144
Help us bring justice to those with no voice!

† Easter Sunday
    SOCIETY of ST. VINCENT de PAUL 
  The late Msgr. John O'Grady, a significant leader of
Catholic Charities in the United States,
credits the Society of St. Vincent de Paul
with being a prime originator and sustaining
force in developing among Catholics a con-
sciousness of national socio-religious prob-
lems and the need for a national response. The Society
is continuing this commitment to social justice through
its national committee "Voice of the Poor." Vincentians
became, in fact, the backbone of the National Confer-
ence of Catholic Charities when it first established in
1910. The two organizations have maintained strong
ties throughout their separate but closely associated
histories.
