First Reading EX 17:3-7
In those days, in their thirst for water, the people grumbled against Moses, saying, "Why did you ever make us leave Egypt? Was
it just to have us die here of thirst with our children and our livestock?" So Moses cried out to the LORD, “What shall I do with
this people? a little more and they will stone me!" The LORD answered Moses, "Go over there in front of the people, along with
some of the elders of Israel, holding in your hand, as you go, the staff with which you struck the river. I will be standing there in
front of you on the rock in Horeb. Strike the rock, and the water will flow from it for the people to drink." This Moses did, in the
presence of the elders of Israel. The place was called Massah and Meribah, because the Israelites quarreled there and tested the
LORD, saying, "Is the LORD in our midst or not?"
Responsorial Psalm PS 95:1-2, 6-7, 8-9 R. If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts.
Second Reading ROM 5:1-2, 5-8 Brothers and sisters: Since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom
we have gained access by faith to this grace in which we stand, and we boast in hope of the glory of God. And hope does not
disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us. For
Christ, while we were still helpless, died at the appointed time for the ungodly. Indeed, only with difficulty does one die for a just
person, though perhaps for a good person one might even find courage to die. But God proves his love for us in that while we were
still sinners Christ died for us.
Gospel JN 4:5-42
Jesus came to a town of Samaria called Sychar, near the plot of land that Jacob had given to his son Joseph. Jacob's well was there.
Jesus, tired from his journey, sat down there at the well. It was about noon. A woman of Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said
to her, "Give me a drink." His disciples had gone into the town to buy food. The Samaritan woman said to him, "How can you, a
Jew, ask me, a Samaritan woman, for a drink?" —For Jews use nothing in common with Samaritans.— Jesus answered and said to
her, "If you knew the gift of God and who is saying to you, 'Give me a drink, ' you would have asked him and he would have given
you living water." The woman said to him, "Sir, you do not even have a bucket and the cistern is deep; where then can you get
this living water? Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us this cistern and drank from it himself with his children and
his flocks?" Jesus answered and said to her, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again; but whoever drinks the water I
shall give will never thirst; the water I shall give will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life." The woman said
to him, "Sir, give me this water, so that I may not be thirsty or have to keep coming here to draw water." Jesus said to her, "Go
call your husband and come back." The woman answered and said to him, "I do not have a husband." Jesus answered her, "You
are right in saying, 'I do not have a husband.' For you have had five husbands, and the one you have now is not your husband.
What you have said is true." The woman said to him, "Sir, I can see that you are a prophet. Our ancestors worshiped on this
mountain; but you people say that the place to worship is in Jerusalem." Jesus said to her, "Believe me, woman, the hour is coming
when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem. You people worship what you do not understand; we
worship what we understand, because salvation is from the Jews. But the hour is coming, and is now here, when true worshipers
will worship the Father in Spirit and truth; and indeed the Father seeks such people to worship him. God is Spirit, and those who
worship him must worship in Spirit and truth." The woman said to him, "I know that the Messiah is coming, the one called the
Christ; when he comes, he will tell us everything." Jesus said to her, "I am he, the one speaking with you." At that moment his
disciples returned, and were amazed that he was talking with a woman, but still no one said, "What are you looking for?" or "Why
are you talking with her?" The woman left her water jar and went into the town and said to the people, “Come see a man who told
me everything I have done. Could he possibly be the Christ?" They went out of the town and came to him. Meanwhile, the
disciples urged him, "Rabbi, eat." But he said to them, "I have food to eat of which you do not know." So the disciples said to one
another, “Could someone have brought him something to eat?" Jesus said to them, "My food is to do the will of the one who sent
me and to finish his work. Do you not say, 'In four months the harvest will be here'? I tell you, look up and see the fields ripe for
the harvest. The reaper is already receiving payment and gathering crops for eternal life, so that the sower and reaper can rejoice
together. For here the saying is verified that 'One sows and another reaps.' I sent you to reap what you have not worked for; others
have done the work, and you are sharing the fruits of their work." Many of the Samaritans of that town began to believe in him
because of the word of the woman who testified, “He told me everything I have done." When the Samaritans came to him, they
invited him to stay with them; and he stayed there two days. Many more began to believe in him because of his word, and they
said to the woman, “We no longer believe because of your word; for we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this is truly
the savior of the world."
3rd Sunday of Lent
El Misal (Ordinario de la Misa) esta en Oramos Cantando/We Pray in Song a Partir de 150
Primera lectura Ex 17, 3-7
En aquellos días, el pueblo, torturado por la sed, fue a protestar contra Moisés, diciéndole: "¿Nos has hecho salir de Egipto para
hacernos morir de sed a nosotros, a nuestros hijos y a nuestro ganado?" Moisés clamó al Señor y le dijo: "¿Qué puedo hacer con
este pueblo? Sólo falta que me apedreen". Respondió el Señor a Moisés: "Preséntate al pueblo, llevando contigo a algunos de los
ancianos de Israel, toma en tu mano el cayado con que golpeaste el Nilo y vete. Yo estaré ante ti, sobre la peña, en Horeb. Golpea
la peña y saldrá de ella agua para que beba el pueblo". Así lo hizo Moisés a la vista de los ancianos de Israel y puso por nombre a
aquel lugar Masá y Meribá, por la rebelión de los hijos de Israel y porque habían tentado al Señor, diciendo: "¿Está o no está el
Señor en medio de nosotros?" Salmo
Responsorial Salmo 94, 1-2. 6-7. 8-9 R. Señor, que no seamos sordos a tu voz.
Segunda lectura Rm 5, 1-2. 5-8 Hermanos: Ya que hemos sido justificados por la fe, mantengámonos en paz con Dios, por mediación de nuestro Señor Jesucristo.
Por él hemos obtenido, con la fe, la entrada al mundo de la gracia, en el cual nos encontramos; por él, podemos gloriarnos de tener
la esperanza de participar en la gloria de Dios. La esperanza no defrauda, porque Dios ha infundido su amor en nuestros corazones
por medio del Espíritu Santo, que él mismo nos ha dado. En efecto, cuando todavía no teníamos fuerzas para salir del pecado,
Cristo murió por los pecadores en el tiempo señalado. Difícilmente habrá alguien que quiera morir por un justo, aunque puede
haber alguno que esté dispuesto a morir por una persona sumamente buena. Y la prueba de que Dios nos ama está en que Cristo
murió por nosotros, cuando aún éramos pecadores.
Evangelio Jn 4, 5-42
En aquel tiempo, llegó Jesús a un pueblo de Samaria, llamado Sicar, cerca del campo que dio Jacob a su hijo José. Ahí estaba el
pozo de Jacob. Jesús, que venía cansado del camino, se sentó sin más en el brocal del pozo. Era cerca del mediodía. Entonces
llegó una mujer de Samaria a sacar agua y Jesús le dijo: "Dame de beber". (Sus discípulos habían ido al pueblo a comprar comida).
La samaritana le contestó: "¿Cómo es que tú, siendo judío, me pides de beber a mí, que soy samaritana?" (Porque los judíos no
tratan a los samaritanos). Jesús le dijo: "Si conocieras el don de Dios y quién es el que te pide de beber, tú le pedirías a él, y él te
daría agua viva". La mujer le respondió: "Señor, ni siquiera tienes con qué sacar agua y el pozo es profundo, ¿cómo vas a darme
agua viva? ¿Acaso eres tú más que nuestro padre Jacob, que nos dio este pozo, del que bebieron él, sus hijos y sus ganados?" Jesús
le contestó: "El que bebe de esta agua vuelve a tener sed. Pero el que beba del agua que yo le daré, nunca más tendrá sed; el agua
que yo le daré se convertirá dentro de él en un manantial capaz de dar la vida eterna". La mujer le dijo: "Señor, dame de esa agua
para que no vuelva a tener sed ni tenga que venir hasta aquí a sacarla". Él le dijo: "Ve a llamar a tu marido y vuelve". La mujer le
contestó: "No tengo marido". Jesús le dijo: "Tienes razón en decir: 'No tengo marido'. Has tenido cinco, y el de ahora no es tu
marido. En eso has dicho la verdad". La mujer le dijo: "Señor, ya veo que eres profeta. Nuestros padres dieron culto en este monte
y ustedes dicen que el sitio donde se debe dar culto está en Jerusalén". Jesús le dijo: "Créeme, mujer, que se acerca la hora en que
ni en este monte ni en Jerusalén adorarán al Padre. Ustedes adoran lo que no conocen; nosotros adoramos lo que conocemos.
Porque la salvación viene de los judíos. Pero se acerca la hora, y ya está aquí, en que los que quieran dar culto verdadero adorarán
al Padre en espíritu y en verdad, porque así es como el Padre quiere que se le dé culto. Dios es espíritu, y los que lo adoran deben
hacerlo en espíritu y en verdad". La mujer le dijo: "Ya sé que va a venir el Mesías (es decir, Cristo). Cuando venga, él nos dará
razón de todo". Jesús le dijo: "Soy yo, el que habla contigo". En esto llegaron los discípulos y se sorprendieron de que estuviera
conversando con una mujer; sin embargo, ninguno le dijo: '¿Qué le preguntas o de qué hablas con ella?' Entonces la mujer dejó su
cántaro, se fue al pueblo y comenzó a decir a la gente: "Vengan a ver a un hombre que me ha dicho todo lo que he hecho. ¿No será
éste el Mesías?" Salieron del pueblo y se pusieron en camino hacia donde él estaba. Mientras tanto, sus discípulos le insistían:
"Maestro, come". Él les dijo: "Yo tengo por comida un alimento que ustedes no conocen". Los discípulos comentaban entre sí:
"¿Le habrá traído alguien de comer?" Jesús les dijo: "Mi alimento es hacer la voluntad del que me envió y llevar a término su obra.
¿Acaso no dicen ustedes que todavía faltan cuatro meses para la siega? Pues bien, yo les digo: Levanten los ojos y contemplen los
campos, que ya están dorados para la siega. Ya el segador recibe su jornal y almacena frutos para la vida eterna. De este modo se
alegran por igual el sembrador y el segador. Aquí se cumple el dicho: 'Uno es el que siembra y otro el que cosecha'. Yo los envié a
cosechar lo que no habían trabajado. Otros trabajaron y ustedes recogieron su fruto". Muchos samaritanos de aquel poblado
creyeron en Jesús por el testimonio de la mujer: 'Me dijo todo lo que he hecho'. Cuando los samaritanos llegaron a donde él estaba,
le rogaban que se quedara con ellos, y se quedó allí dos días. Muchos más creyeron en él al oír su palabra. Y decían a la mujer:
"Ya no creemos por lo que tú nos has contado, pues nosotros mismos lo hemos oído y sabemos que él es, de veras, el Salvador del
mundo".

St. Pius V Catholic Church March 19, 2017
3rd Sunday of Lent
Dear friends, In the Eucharistic Prayer, we ask that, “looking into the signs of the times”, we may be “attentive to the needs of all.” The parish is a living community with changing needs as times change. It is imperative that we occasionally stop to assess our needs and the “signs of the times” and plan how we, as the church, will fulfill our mission of “service to the Gospel” in years to come. As an Archdiocese, we began this process several years ago. The Archdiocesan Pastoral Plan: A Spirituality of Communion, published 4 years ago, was the outcome of this process. It has three main pathways -- Live Our Faith, Share Our Faith, Nurture Our Faith -- and provides a framework and resources for pastoral planning in the parish. For some time now, the parish Pastoral Council has discussed with me ways in which we might undertake the planning process with the view to developing a five-year plan which would be open to a more distant future. I have now asked the Pastoral Council to devote the next year to this planning process with the participation of the entire parish. I have asked that we suspend all the regular business of the Pastoral Council so as to concentrate our efforts on this process with the Archdiocesan Pastoral Plan as its foundation. This planning involves all the faithful of the parish and requires leadership. The first months will be devoted to developing leaders to guide the process and extend it to all areas of parish life. I am inviting the existing leaders in every ministry, group, and movement within the parish to take part. I am inviting those who have led in the past and those who, up to now, have been comfortable to be on the sidelines to take part. This coming Tuesday evening, March 21, we will meet for the first time as the St. Pius V Pastoral Planning Commission and will meet every week for 2 months as we come to understand the process and take it to heart. These 2 months will be devoted to forming the parish leadership which will carry forward the planning process. At the end of that time, we will begin to implement the process with the involvement of everyone. This first meeting will take place in the Parish Life Center at 7:00PM. I ask you to hear the call to be a servant-leader in the model of Christ and respond with a commitment to the life of the parish. I realize that not everyone can make that commitment to leadership. You may have other commitments to parish, family, community which are equally important and more urgent. You will have the opportunity to participate in other ways as we go forward. However, Lent is a time of sacrifice. If you can make that commitment and give of your time and energy for this important work, I invite and urge you to do so. May the Our Father hear and answer the prayer that we offer with, through, and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, in the Eucharistic Prayer.
Fr. Joe
Queridos amigos, En la Plegaria Eucarística, pedimos que "sepamos discernir los signos de los tiempos" y “preocupemos de compartir en la cridad las angustias y las tristezas, las alegrías y esperanzas de los hombres". La parroquia es una comunidad viva con necesidades cambiantes en medio de los tiempos cambiantes. Es imperativo que de vez en cuando nos detengamos para evaluar “las angustias y las tristezas, las alegrías y esperanzas” de la comunidad y los "signos de los tiempos" y planificar para que, como iglesia, podemos cumplir nuestra misión “en fidelidad al Evangelio.”. Como Arquidiócesis, comenzamos este proceso hace 6 años. El Plan Pastoral Arquidiocesano: Una Espiritualidad de Comunión, publicado hace 4 años, fue el resultado de este proceso. El Plan tiene tres caminos principales -- Vivir Nuestra Fe, Compartir Nuestra Fe, Alimentar Nuestra Fe -- y proporciona un marco y recursos para la planificación pastoral en la parroquia. Desde hace algún tiempo, el Consejo Pastoral de la parroquia ha discutido conmigo maneras en que podríamos emprender el proceso de planificación con miras a elaborar un plan quinquenal que estaría abierto a un futuro más lejano. Ahora he pedido al Consejo Pastoral que dedique el próximo año a este proceso de planificación con la participación de toda la parroquia. He pedido que suspendamos todos los asuntos regulares del Consejo Pastoral para concentrar nuestros esfuerzos en este proceso con el Plan Pastoral Arquidiocesano como su fundamento. Esta planificación involucra a todos los fieles de la parroquia y requiere liderazgo. Los primeros meses serán dedicados a desarrollar líderes para guiar el proceso y extenderlo a todas las áreas de la vida parroquial. Invito a los líderes existentes en cada ministerio, grupo y movimiento dentro de la parroquia a participar. Estoy invitando a aquellos que han liderado en el pasado ya aquellos que, hasta ahora, se han sentido cómodos para estar al margen para participar. Este martes por la noche, 21 de marzo, nos reuniremos por primera vez como la Comisión de Planificación Pastoral de San Pío V y nos reuniremos cada semana durante 2 meses a medida que lleguemos a entender el proceso y lo tomemos en serio. Estos dos meses serán dedicados a formar el liderazgo parroquial que llevará adelante el proceso de planificación. Al final de ese tiempo, comenzaremos a implementar el proceso con la participación de todos. Esta primera reunión tendrá lugar en el Parish Life Center a las 7:00 PM. Les pido que escuchen el llamado a ser un líder-siervo en el modelo de Cristo y responder con un compromiso a la vida de la parroquia. Me doy cuenta de que no todos pueden hacer ese compromiso con el liderazgo. Quizás tienes otros compromisos con la parroquia, la familia, la comunidad que son de importancia igual y más urgentes. Tendrás la oportunidad de participar de otras maneras mientras avanzamos. Sin embargo, la Cuaresma es un tiempo de sacrificio. Si puedes hacer ese compromiso y dar de tu tiempo y energía para este importante trabajo, to invito e insto a hacerlo. Que el Padre Nuestro oiga y responda a la oración Eucarística que ofrecemos con Jesucristo, Su Hijo único, por ÉL, y en Él.
