ST. MICHAEL THE ARCHANGEL CATHOLIC CHURCHTHE GIFT OF PEACE
“There arose no little dissension and debate.” Did that happen at work this week? Most of us can recall run-ins with coworkers, even with the boss. Did it happen while socializing with friends? Go easy on politics, religion . . . even sports. At home? Even the most peaceful household experiences a little “give and take” now and then. So where was it that “there arose no little dissension and debate”? That tumultuous conflict occurred among our first Christian ancestors, disrupting the community life of the early church. But today’s Acts of the Apostles shows how beautifully the Holy Spirit, promised by Jesus in today’s Gospel, helped the church achieve a grace-filled resolution. What evolved was that “reconciled diversity,” often encouraged by Pope Francis and even envisioned in today’s Revelation passage; and a wondrous experience of Jesus’ promised Gospel gift: “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you.”
TODAY’S READINGSFirst Reading — The question of whether circumcision is necessary for salvation (Acts 15:1-2, 22-29).Psalm — O God, let all the nations praise you! (Psalm 67)Second Reading — John envisions the holy city, the new Jerusalem (Revelation 21:10-14, 22-23) or Revelation 22:12-14, 16-17, 20.Gospel — Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you (John 14:23-29) or John 17:20-26.
READINGS FOR THE WEEKMonday: Acts 16:11-15; Ps 149:1b-6a, 9b; Jn 15:26 — 16:4aTuesday: Acts 16:22-34; Ps 138:1-3, 7c-8; Jn 16:5-11Wednesday: Acts 17:15, 22 — 18:1; Ps 148:1-2, 11-14; Jn 16:12-15Thursday: Acts 1:1-11; Ps 47:2-3, 6-9; Eph 1:17-23 or Heb 9:24-28; 10:19-23; Lk 24:46-53 (for Ascension); otherwise Acts 18:1-8; Ps 98:1-4; Jn 16:16-20Friday: Zep 3:14-18a or Rom 12:9-16; Is 12:2-3, 4bcd-6; Lk 1:39-56Saturday: Acts 18:23-28; Ps 47:2-3, 8-10; Jn 16:23b-28Sunday: Acts 7:55-60; Ps 97:1-2, 6-7, 9; Rv 22:12-14, 16-17, 20; Jn 17:20-26; or, for Ascension, Acts 1:1-11; Ps 47:2-3, 6-9; Eph 1:17-23 or Heb 9:24-28; 10:19-23; Lk 24:46-53 SAINTS AND SPECIAL OBSERVANCESSunday: Sixth Sunday of EasterMonday: St. Augustine of Canterbury; Memorial DayWednesday: St. Paul VIThursday: The Ascension of the Lord (unless transferred to Sunday)Friday: Visitation of the Blessed Virgin MarySaturday: St. Justin; First Saturday
EL DON DE LA PAZ “Surgieron no pocos desacuerdos y debates”. ¿Pasó eso en
el trabajo esta semana? Muchos de nosotros pueden recordar algunos roces con compañeros de trabajo, incluso con el jefe. ¿Pasó también mientras socializaba con amigos? Evita hablar de política, religión . . . incluso de deportes. ¿En casa? Incluso el hogar más pacífico experimenta un poco de “estira y afloja” de vez en cuando. Entonces ¿dónde fue que “surgieron no pocos desacuerdos y debates”? Ese tumultuoso conflicto ocurrió en medio de nuestros primeros hermanos cristianos, interrumpiendo la vida de la comunidad de la Iglesia primitiva. Pero en los Hechos de los Apóstoles muestra cuán bello es el Espíritu Santo, prometido por Jesús en el Evangelio de hoy, que ayudó a la Iglesia a lograr una decisión llena de gracia. Lo que evolucionó fue que la “diversidad reconciliada” frecuentemente animada por el Papa Francisco e incluso previstas en el pasaje de hoy del Apocalipsis y una experiencia maravillosa del don de Jesús prometido por Jesús: “La paz les dejo, mi paz les doy”.
LECTURAS DE HOYPrimera lectura — La cuestión de si los gentiles necesitaban ser circuncidados (Hechos 15:1-2, 22-29).Salmo — Que te alaben, Señor, todos los pueblos Aleluya (Salmo 67 [66]).Segunda lectura — Juan tiene una visión de la ciudad santa, la nueva Jerusalén (Apocalipsis 21:10-14, 22-23) o Ap 22:12-14, 16-17, 20.Evangelio — El Espíritu Santo nos enseñará todo (Juan 14:23-29) o Jn 17:20-26.

ST. MICHAEL THE ARCHANGEL CATHOLIC CHURCHTREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
Why is it still Easter? The lilies have long since faded. The roots of our tradition of fifty days of rejoicing from Easter to Pentecost lie in the seven-day rhythm of the Jewish week, drawn from the six days of creation plus a Sabbath day. A favorite name for the Lord’s Day among our ancestors in the faith was “The Eighth Day,” meaning that in Christ a breakthrough to a new humanity was achieved. With that inner architecture, it makes sense to see Pentecost as a week of weeks, forty-nine days plus one, again signaling that a new age has begun in Christ and the outpouring of his Spirit. The Jewish appreciation for Pentecost gave rise to the Jubilee year, the fiftieth year, when debts were released and prisoners set free. Today, the character of our Easter Sundays is conveyed by joyful Alleluias and the rite of sprinkling at Mass. Long ago, people expressed this joy by suspending all rules of fasting and by never kneeling at liturgy.
These customs all point to our conviction that time is holy. There is an elegant balance to the Christian year: forty days of Lenten fast and discipline give way to fifty days of unrestrained rejoicing. That’s why it is still Easter!
MINISTERS of CAREMinisters of care bring communion to the sick, shut-ins, hospitals. This is a very important ministry as it brings hospitality and care to those who seek the loving presence of Christ.

THANK YOUPraise and thanks go to Erika Reyes, Manuel Calzada and the 9:30 and 6:00 choirs for beautiful music at the Monday night Confirmation Mass. The Spirit moved us all!Honores y gracias para Erika Reyes y Manuel Calzada coordinadores de los coros de 9:30 y 6:00 respectivamente, por la hermosa misa de confirmación de este lunes por la noche. ¡El Espíritu nos conmovió a todos!
TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FETristemente una vez que muchos latinoamericanos
llegan a los Estados Unidos es difícil regresar a sus tierras de origen, ni siquiera para visitar. Por esta razón, muchos pueblos latinoamericanos han construido santuarios a sus vírgenes y santos patrones en tierra estadounidense. De esta manera buscan estar cerca al suelo que les trajo a luz, que les nutrió con frutas, verduras, flores, cantos, costumbres y tradiciones.
En Miami el pueblo cubano ha construido una ermita dedicada a la Virgen de la Caridad del Cobre, cuya capilla del Santísimo fue bendecida en la fiesta de la Ascensión del Señor. Debajo de su altar principal se guarda una piedra hecha con tierra de las distintas provincias de Cuba. Es bello el hecho, porque de esta manera todo cubano que se acerca al altar del Señor puede estar cerca de su terruño aunque sea solo por un momento.
Que hay en la tierra que nos llama tanto a nosotros los latinos. Será que el libro del Génesis tiene razón, Dios forma toda persona del polvo y el corazón latino anhela la tierra de la que fue sacado.
ST. MICHAEL THE ARCHANGEL CATHOLIC CHURCHCardinal Robert Sarah is publishing the third of his book-length interviews with Nicolas Diat: The Day is Far Spent. An unflinching diagnosis, but one full of hope in the midst of the spiritual and moral crisis of the West.
One chapter is dedicated to the “crisis of the Church.” When precisely do you place the beginning of this crisis and what does it consist in? In particular, how do you relate the “crisis of faith” to the crisis of “moral theology.” Does one precede the other?
The crisis of the Church is above all a crisis of the faith. Some want the Church to be a human and horizontal society; they want it to speak the language of the media. They want to make it popular. They urge it not to speak about God, but to throw itself body and soul into social problems: migration, ecology, dialogue, the culture of encounter, the struggle against poverty, for justice and peace. These are of course important and vital questions before which the Church cannot shut her eyes. But a Church such as this is of interest to no one. The Church is only of interest because she allows us to encounter Jesus. She is only legitimate because she passes on Revelation to us. When the Church becomes overburdened with human structures, it obstructs the light of God shining out in her and through her. We are tempted to think that our action and our ideas will save the Church. It would be better to begin by letting her save herself.
I think we are at a turning point in the history of the Church. The Church needs a profound, radical reform that must begin by a reform of the life of her priests. Priests must be possessed by the desire for holiness, for perfection in God and fidelity to the doctrine of Him who has chosen and sent them. Their whole being and all their activities must be put to the service of sanctity. The Church is holy in herself. Our sins and our worldly concerns prevent her holiness from diffusing itself. It is time to put aside all these burdens and allow the Church finally appear as God made Her. Some believe that the history of the Church is marked by structural reforms. I am sure that it is the saints who change history. The structures follow afterwards, and do nothing other than perpetuate the what the saints brought about.
We need saints who dare to see all things through the eyes of faith, who dare to be enlightened by the light of God. The crisis of moral theology is the consequence of a voluntary blindness. We have refused to look at life through the light of the Faith.
In the conclusion of my book, I speak about a poison
from which are all suffering: a virulent atheism. It permeates everything, even our ecclesiastical discourse. It consists in allowing radically pagan and worldly modes of thinking or living to coexist side by side with faith. And we are quite content with this unnatural cohabitation! This shows that our faith has become diluted and inconsistent! The first reform we need is in our hearts. We must no longer compromise with lies. The Faith is both the treasure we have to defend and the power that will permit us to defend it.
“Whether, therefore, we receive what we ask for, or do not receive it, let us still continue steadfast in prayer. For to fail in obtaining the desires of our heart, when God so wills it, is not worse than to receive it; for we know not as He does, what is profitable to us.”
-St. John Chrysostom
