Welcome to St. Therese Parish · Appleton, WI
“Notes from Fr. Bill”
“Jesús lloró
“Jesus wept”
He was human. He lived in a big extended family.
He had lots of friends. How could he have gotten
through life without shedding a tear?
Do you think anyone said to him: “Don’t be a
baby?” or “Big boys don’t cry?”
He saw the people who were sick; he saw those who
were outcasts from family and neighborhood. He bore the
sins of the world on his shoulders. He was divine. He
knew who close the Father longed to be to them and yet
how far away from God they felt. Of course he wept.
Let’s make our homes and our church places where it is
okay to laugh and cry. The Evangelist John did us a favor
when he reported these two little words, “Jesus wept.”
Jesus is the Way. Sometimes the Way leads through
tears.
A
nd when he had said this, he cried out in a loud
voice, "Lazarus, come out!" The dead man came out,
tied hand and foot with burial bands, and his face was
wrapped in a cloth. So Jesus said to them, "Untie him and
let him go."
- Jn 11:43-44
Fifth Week of Lent:
I Will Put My Spirit in You that You May Have Life
The scriptures this weekend are rich with the theme that
God brings the dead to life. God has made us all to share
life with Him, and so all humans have rights and responsibilities to the basic goods of the earth. In Kenya and elsewhere, Catholic Relief Services' Operation Rice Bowl
helps people receive the basic right of an education.
Jesús fue humano. Vivió en una familia
grande. Tuvo muchos amigos. ¿Cómo podía
haber vividos treinta y tres años sin dejar caer
una lágrima?
¿Crees que alguien le dijo: “No seas un niño?”
o “Hombres no lloran?”
El vio a los enfermos; él vio a los que estaban
rechazados por su familia y vecindario. El llevó los
pecados del mundo sobre sus hombros. El fue divino.
El supo cuánto su Padre los deseaba tenerlos cerca de
El y cuán lejos ellos sentían estar de El. Por supuesto
que Jesús lloró.
Hagamos de nuestros hogares y nuestra iglesia
lugares donde podemos sentir que está bien reír o
llorar. El evangelista Juan nos hizo bien al reportar
estas dos palabras, “Jesús lloró.”
Jesús es el Camino. A veces el Camino nos lleva
por medio de lágrimas.
L
uego gritó con voz potente: "¡Lázaro, sal de ahí!" Y
salió el muerto, atados con vendas las manos y los
pies, y la cara envuelta en un sudario. Jesús les dijo:
"Desátenlo, para que pueda andar".
- Jn 11, 43-44
Quinta Semana de Cuaresma:
Pondré dentro de ustedes mi espíritu y haré que
caminen. La riqueza de las Escrituras de este fin de
semana estriba en el tema de Dios dando vida a los
muertos. Dios nos hizo a todos para compartir la
vida con Él, y así todos los seres humanos tienen
derechos y responsabilidades para con los productos
básicos de la tierra. En Kenia y en otros lugares,
Operación Plato de Arroz ayuda a que las personas
reciban el derecho básico de la educación.
SPIRITUAL ADOPTION A MESSAGE FROM YOUR BABY
Please pray daily for your spiritually
adopted baby and the baby’s parents.
ADOPCIÓN ESPIRITUAL UN MENSAJE DE SU BEBÉ
Por favor recuerde de rezar diariamente pro su
bebé espiritualmente Adoptado y para la madre
y el padre del bebé.
