Protecting Our Children Did You Know

 Pray for the healing of abuse victims

Each of us, as members of our Catholic community, can contribute to the healing by remembering survivors of abuse in our prayers. The following prayer is from the USCCB.

Holy Spirit, comforter of hearts, heal your people’s wounds and transform brokenness

into wholeness.

Grant us courage and wisdom, humility and grace, to act with justice.

Breathe wisdom into our prayers and labors.

Grant that all harmed by abuse may find

justice.

We ask this through Christ, our Lord.

Amen.

REJOICE AND BE GLAD

"This is the day the Lord has made; let us

rejoice and be glad" (Psalm 118:24). Let us

remember that these words of today's

responsorial psalm are not only sung from the

hearts of those gathered in our parish. They are

also sung by the poor in tiny barrios throughout

Central and South America. They are sung by

those denied religious freedom in our world;

these Christians lift their voices in clandestine

places of worship. These words are sung by

people who have lost loved ones to acts of

terrorism and war around the globe. Even in the

midst of conflict and division, Christians still

come together to declare that poverty,

loneliness, violence, and division will never,

ever have as much power as the life, death, and

resurrection of Jesus Christ. Indeed, let us

rejoice this day and be glad!

READINGS

Reading 1 Acts 10:34a, 37-43 Peter proceeded to speak and said: "You know what has happened all over Judea, beginning in Galilee after the baptism that John preached, how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power. He went about doing good and healing all those oppressed by the devil, for God was with him. We are witnesses of all that he did both in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem. They put him to death by hanging him on a tree. This man God raised on the third day and granted that he be visible, not to all the people, but to us, the witnesses chosen by God in advance, who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead. He commissioned us to preach to the people and testify that he is the one appointed by God as judge of the living and the dead. To him all the prophets bear witness, that everyone who believes in him will receive forgiveness of sins through his name."

“Responsorial Psalm”

Ps 118:1-2, 16-17, 22-23

R. / (24) This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad.

Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good, for his mercy endures forever. Let the house of Israel say, "His mercy endures forever." R. / "The right hand of the LORD has struck with power; the right hand of the LORD is

exalted. I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD." R. / The stone which the builders rejected has become the cornerstone. By the LORD has this been done; it is wonderful in our eyes. R. /

Reading 2 Col 3:1-4 Brothers and sisters: If then you were raised with Christ, seek what is above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God. Think of what is above, not of what is on earth. For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ your life appears, then you too will appear with him in glory.

Alleluia Cf. 1 Cor 5:7b-8a Christ, our paschal lamb, has been sacrificed; let us feast with joy in the Lord. Gospel Jn 20:1-9 On the first day of the week, Mary of Magdala came to the tomb early in the morning, while it was still dark, and saw the stone removed from the tomb. So she ran and went to Simon Peter and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and told them, "They have taken the Lord from the tomb, and we don't know where they put him." So Peter and the other disciple went out and came to the tomb. They both ran, but the other disciple ran faster than Peter and arrived at the tomb first; he bent down and saw the burial cloths there, but did not go in. When Simon Peter arrived after him, he went into the tomb and saw the burial cloths there, and the cloth that had covered his head, not with the burial cloths but rolled up in a separate place. Then the other disciple also went in, the one who had

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION

Easter is nearly three weeks later this year than last. Why does the date wobble around the calendar so? The way of calculating the date was set by the Emperor Constantine in 325. The decision ended a very bitter controversy in the church. Some people wanted to synchronize the Pasch with Passover on the fourteenth day of the Jewish month Nissan, and their opponents wanted it after the Passover was complete, on the Sunday after the first full moon of springtime. The ecclesiastical rules do not exactly connect with the astronomical rules. The emperor squashed the hopes of the quartodecimans, as the fans of 14 Nissan were called, and chose Sunday. The traditional rule is that Easter is the first Sunday after the first ecclesiastical full moon that occurs on or after the vernal equinox, the fourteenth day of the new moon, and later than March 21. Thus, Easter wobbles between March 22 and April 25. The actual tables and methods for computing the date are extraordinarily detailed, with subtle variations and mind-bending exceptions and charts with "golden numbers," "dominical letters," and "epacts" measuring leap years. In 1954 and 1962 the ecclesiastical calculations actually overrode the astronomical new moons and bumped Easter back a month! Today, there is a movement in the World Council of Churches (Protestants and Orthodox) for all Christians to combine their celebrations, based on the star charts for the Jerusalem skies. In principle, the Catholic Church is open to an ecumenical agreement on a fixed date for Easter, but we desire a unanimous decision from the World Council. --Rev. James Field, Copyright (c) J. S.
