STEWARDSHIP / CORRESPONSABILIDAD
Gratitude in Action: Our Way of Life / Gratitud en Acción: Nuestra forma de Vida
Alleluia! “The strife is o’er, the battle done; Now is the
Victor’s triumph won; O let the song of praise be sung.”1
He is risen! We have been set free from the throes of sin
and death with promise of eternal life with Christ!
Throughout Lent, we sought opportunities to fast, maybe
from worldly pleasures and enticements; to be charitable
in our giving to the poor or those less fortunate than
ourselves; and to pray to God in personal, private
moments, as well as less intimate times of community
prayer gatherings.
We challenged ourselves to become more acutely aware of
the Lord’s presence and the ways in which He calls us to
live, perhaps seeking detachment from the ways of our
world.
Jesus is Alive! This is the opening presentation of Tracy
Earl Welliver, MTS, who will facilitate our Parish Mission
beginning Sunday evening, May 12 at 6:30 in the Church.
Tracy will revisit the basics of EVERYDAY STEWARDSHIP:
Reflections for the Journey, which include being Mindful,
Prayerful, Grateful, Gracious, Committed and
Accountable.
Tracy will reflect on what real growth looks like when one
chooses to live this way of life. He will also identify what
implications this growth has on our relationship with
Jesus.
“Discipleship and stewardship”, Tracy points out, “require
a relationship with a Jesus that is alive and real.” If we fail
to grow in this relationship, our spirituality will not
withstand the challenges of this world in which we exist.
Is it possible to live your life with Jesus at the center,
embracing the way of life He encourages, in spite of the
enticements and temptations of our world that lure us into
believing those are far more important than the life and
spiritual gifts God generously provides us?
Can we readily admit everything we own belongs to God
and we are merely tending them while on this earthly
journey? Can we honestly say we do not own all these
things and they do not own us?
Living as a disciple or steward is not necessarily an easy
way of life. It is, however, a fruitful, joy-filled life just as
the promise of eternal life.

¡Aleluya! "La lucha es vieja, la batalla hecha; Ahora se
ganó el triunfo del vencedor; ¡Oh, que el canto de
alabanza sea cantado!”1 ¡Ha resucitado! ¡Hemos sido
liberados de las angustias del pecado y la muerte con la
promesa de la vida eterna con Cristo!
A lo largo de la Cuaresma, buscamos oportunidades para
ayunar, tal vez de placeres y tentaciones mundanas; ser
caritativos en nuestra entrega a los pobres o aquellos
menos afortunados que nosotros; y orar a Dios en
momentos personales y privados, así como en momentos
menos íntimos de reuniones comunitarias de oración.
Nos desafiamos a nosotros mismos a ser más
conscientes de la presencia del Señor y las formas en
que Él nos llama a vivir, tal vez buscando el desapego de
los caminos de nuestro mundo.
¡Jesús está vivo! Esta es la presentación de apertura de
Tracy Earl Welliver, MTS, quien facilitará nuestra
Misión Parroquial a partir de la tarde del domingo 12 de
mayo a las 6:30 en la Iglesia.
Tracy revisará los conceptos básicos de LA
CORRESPONSABILIDAD DE TODOS LOS DÍAS:
Reflexiones para el viaje, que incluyen ser Atento, Orar,
Agradecido, Amable, Comprometido y Responsable.
Tracy reflexionará sobre cómo se ve el crecimiento real
cuando uno elige vivir de esta manera. También
identificará qué implicaciones tiene este crecimiento en
nuestra relación con Jesús.
"El discipulado y la corresponsabilidad", señala Tracy,
"requiere una relación con un Jesús vivo y real". Si no
crecemos en esta relación, nuestra espiritualidad no
resistirá los desafíos de este mundo en el que
existimos. ¿Es posible vivir tu vida con Jesús en el
centro, abrazando el modo de vida que Él alienta, a pesar
de las tentaciones y estímulos de nuestro mundo que nos
hacen creer que son mucho más importantes que la vida
y los dones espirituales que Dios proporciona
generosamente?
¿Podemos admitir fácilmente que todo lo que tenemos
pertenece a Dios y simplemente los estamos cuidando en
este viaje terrenal? ¿Podemos decir honestamente que no
somos dueños de todas estas cosas y no nos poseen?
Vivir como discípulo o corresponsable no es
necesariamente una forma de vida fácil. Sin embargo, es
una vida fructífera y llena de gozo, como la promesa de
la vida eterna.

Pastor’s Message by Father Oscar Martin Picos
Easter Sunday of the Resurrection of the Lord / Domingo de Pascua de la Resurrección del Señor
Happy Easter!
The Resurrection is a difficult subject to
explain. In non-Christian societies, its
meaning and reality have not penetrated.
More people believe in reincarnation than in
the Resurrection. The reason is quite simple:
reincarnation is considered as a new opportunity for
temporal life, while the Resurrection is a definitive
conclusion on the path of life. Christians believe in the
Resurrection, not in reincarnation.
Many times, we overlook the same reality of the two
apostles in today’s Word. Both of them experience the
Resurrection, but one sees it from the door and the other
enters where the event occurred. Those who wish to have
a greater knowledge of Christ must go down to the depth
of the grave, to understand the reality of what has
happened.
Are we Christian witnesses of the Resurrection? We need
to ask this question of ourselves: Is my life a testimony of
the Resurrection? Am I a good example of the resurrected?
The Resurrection is life, born for
the life of God, to be in Him, to
enjoy forever His tenderness and
His presence.
The Resurrection is the engine of
our faith. It is what drives our
journey.
To believe in the Resurrection is to
let God take the last word in our
lives. It is not to hinder Him from
making His promise of eternal life
come true.
Again, Happy Easter!
¡Feliz Pascua!
La resurrección es un tema difícil de tratar y de
explicar. En nuestras sociedades "cristianas" no ha
calado su sentido y su realidad. Son más las personas
que creen en la reencarnación que en la resurrección.
El motivo es bastante sencillo de explicar: la
reencarnación es como una nueva oportunidad que se
le da al ser humano, mientras que la resurrección es
siempre una conclusión más que definitiva en el
camino de la vida. Los cristianos creemos en la
resurrección no en la reencarnación.
Muchas veces nos pasa a los seres humanos la misma
realidad de aquellos dos apóstoles. Los dos están
experimentando la resurrección, pero uno lo ve desde
la puerta y el otro entra donde ha tenido lugar el
suceso. Quienes deseen tener un mayor conocimiento
de las cosas de Cristo, han de bajar a la profundidad de
la tumba, ver la realidad de lo que ha sucedido.
¿Somos los cristianos testigos de la resurrección?
Esta es una pregunta que nos tenemos que hacer
frecuentemente. ¿Es mi vida testimonio de
resurrección? ¿Soy un buen ejemplo de resucitado?
La resurrección es vida, es nacer para la vida de Dios,
estar en Él, disfrutar para siempre de su ternura y su
presencia.
La resurrección es el motor de nuestra fe. Es lo que
impulsa nuestro caminar.
Resucitar es dejar que Dios tome la última palabra en
mi vida. Es no ponerle obstáculos para que se haga
realidad su promesa de vida eterna.
Los cristianos tenemos que hacernos con frecuencia la
pregunta: ¿Me siento de verdad resucitado?
De nuevo, ¡Feliz Pascua!
