May 28th, 2017 – Solemnity of the Ascension of the Lord

Readings: Acts 1:1-11; Psalms 47 “God mounts his throne to shouts of joy: a blare of trumpets for the Lord”;

Ephesians 1:17-23; Matthew 28:16-20

Brother and Sisters of St. Eugene Catholic Mission,

The Easter season for this year has almost ended; the solemnity celebrated today calls each of us to be close to where

Jesus is with his disciples as he gives them the last instructions before his return to the Father.

Certainly for the disciples this moment was not wished by them, they wanted to have some more time with the Lord,

to learn a little more from him, however, it is necessary for him to go, that the Holy Spirit, the advocate, the consoler,

come upon them (John 14: 16-17), as they have to go forth and to announce the gospel to all the nations (Matthew 28:

19). However, to contemplate about the Ascension of the Lord Jesus into heaven, some may think it is a joke: but

why? Because for some people want to understand it from the elements of physics rather than understanding it

through faith. As the disciples proclaimed their faith in Christ as God and Lord, we too have to do the same, with no

fear of those who cannot yet understand why we believe.

“The Church Fathers used to call the Ascension the "hope of the body," because this Christian event guarantees the

triumph of life over death. Man's existence is not just a road looking forward, in the limited sense of economic and

scientific progress, but it is a road leading upward to complete human fulfillment. That is why we should commit our-

selves to seeking the joys of Heaven, as St Paul exhorts us: "If then you have risen with Christ, seek the things that

are above" (Colossians 3:1-2).” (Source: https://www.epriest.com/homily_packs/spanish/25#english: )

The importance to “seek by what is above” is not only seeing Christ going up into heaven, it is a calling to look around

us and see those who are with us on the path of God, helping them on their journey of faith, despite differences of

opinion.

28 de mayo de 2017 – Ascensión del Señor Lecturas: Hechos 1, 1-11, Salmo 46 “Entre voces de júbilo, Dios asciende a su trono. Aleluya.”, Efesios 1, 17-23,

Mateo 28, 16-20

Hermanos y hermanas de la Misión Católica San Eugenio,

La temporada de Pascua de este año casi ha terminado; La solemnidad celebrada hoy nos llama a cada uno a estar cer-

ca de donde Jesús esta con sus discípulos mientras les da las últimas instrucciones antes de su regreso al Padre.

Ciertamente para los discípulos este momento no era deseado por ellos, querían tener un poco más de tiempo con el

Señor, para aprender un poco más de él. Sin embargo, es necesario que él se vaya y que el Espíritu Santo, el abogado,

el consolador, venga sobre ellos (Juan 14: 16-17), ya que ellos tienen que salir y anunciar el Evangelio a todas las na-

ciones (Mateo 28:19).

Sin embargo la Ascensión del Señor al cielo, algunos pueden creer que es una broma: ¿ Pero, por qué?. Porque algu-

nas personas lo quieren entender por medio de los elementos físicos, en lugar de entenderla a través de la fe. Así como

los discípulos proclamaron su fe en Cristo como Dios y Señor, nosotros también tenemos que hacer lo mismo, sin te-

mor de aquellos que aún no pueden entender por qué creemos.

Los Padres de la Iglesia solían llamar la Ascensión la “esperanza del cuerpo”, porque este evento cristiano garantiza el

triunfo de la vida sobre la muerte. La existencia del hombre no es sólo un camino que continua, en el sentido limitado

del progreso económico y en el científico, sino que es un camino que conduce hacia adelante para poder completar la

realización humana. Es por eso que debemos comprometernos a buscar las alegrías del Cielo, como San Pablo exhor-

ta: “Si, pues, habéis resucitado con Cristo, buscad lo que está arriba” (Colosenses 3:1-2). (Tomado de: http://

www.epriest.com/homily_packs/spanish/25#english).

La importancia de “busca lo que está arriba” no es sólo ver a Cristo subir al cielo, es un llamado a mirar a nuestro alre-

dedor y ver a aquellos que están con nosotros en el camino de Dios, ayudándolos en su camino de fe, a pesar de las

diferencias de opiniones.

Step Up For Students is a state-approved nonprofit scholarship funding or-ganization that helps administer two scholarships for Florida schoolchildren: the Florida Tax Credit Scholarship Program (FTC) for low-income families

and the Gardiner Scholarship (PLSA) for children with certain special needs. Our Catholic schools accept Step Up scholarships, which can be applied for through an online application. Applications are open for both new and renewal families for the 2017-18 school year. Step Up anticipates funding 105,000 scholarships for next school year and have already awarded more than 70,000 scholarships, so it is important that interested families apply

ASAP. The deadline to apply for FTC scholarships has been extended to May 31. This means entire applications must be completed, including the submission of all documentation. The deadline is early this year as we’re

doing everything we can to process and award all scholarships prior to school beginning in August. Currently, the turnaround time for new applica-

tions is about three weeks. While they still give priority to the lowest income bracket, Step Up has be-gun awarding students of higher income families who qualify for the 88% scholarship. Families could be eligible for partial scholarship funding

with income even as high as 260% of the federal poverty level. If you have any questions about the Step Up scholarships or have interest in a Catholic education for your child, please call your local Catholic school

and speak with its principal. Application link: https://www.stepupforstudents.org/logins/

BULLETIN BLURB The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops reminds us that doctor-assisted suicide abandons vulnerable individuals, enables suicide, escalates sui-cide and, by legalizing doctor-assisted suicide, we wrongly communicate that some lives are not worth living. “Every suicide is tragic. We don't discourage suicide by assisting suicide. The patient requesting assisted suicide is often asking, ‘Does anyone want me to be alive, or care enough to talk me out of this request and support me through this difficult time?’” http://www.usccb.org/about/pro-life-activities/respect-life-program/2016/every-suicide-is-tragic.cfm

Latin Mass A sung (Gregorian-chanted) traditional Latin Mass will be celebrated at St. Louis Church, located at 3640 Fred George Road, Tallahassee, Florida 32303 on June 4, Pentecost Sun-day.

The six benefits that are received through the Sacrament of Confession are: 1. Reconciliation with God by which the penitent recovers his state of grace; 2. Reconciliation with the Church; 3. The remission of the eternal punishment incurred through mortal sins; 4. The remission, at least in part, of temporal punishments resulting from sin; 5. Peace and serenity of conscience, and spiritual consolation; 6. An increase of spiritual strength for the Christian battle. By approaching the Sacrament of Confession, the penitent obtains pardon from God's mercy for the sins he has committed against God, therefore being reconciled with the Holy Catholic Church which was wounded by the shipwreck of one of its members. (C.C.C. # 1422, 1496) For more on the Church's teaching on Confession, go to: http://www.catholic.org/prayers/prayer.php?p=680.

Los seis beneficios que se reciben a través del Sacramento de la Confesión son: 1. La reconciliación con Dios por la cual el penitente recobra su estado de gracia; 2. Reconciliación con la Iglesia; 3. La remisión del castigo eterno ocasionado por los pecados mortales; 4. La remisión, al menos en parte, de las penas temporales resultantes del pecado; 5. Paz y serenidad de la conciencia, y consuelo espiritual; 6. Un aumento de la fuerza espiritual para la batalla cristiana. Al acercarse al Sacramento de la Confesión, el penitente obtiene el perdón de la misericordia de Dios por los pecados que ha co-metido contra Dios, por lo que se ha reconciliado con la Santa Iglesia Católica que fue herida por el naufragio de uno de sus miembros.
