Message from Our Associate Pastor
Corpus Christi
The Gospel of Luke 9:11-17) describes the
crowd or multitude who followed Jesus. He is in
their midst. They followed him, whether they
were hungry or thirsty, fatigue or sick… their
focus was on Jesus. They listen to him and his
words were magical, so heavenly, comforting,
encouraging, above all life giving but Jesus knew that it is also
equally important to feed them not only the word of God but
also the bread for the body. Feeding Five thousand men, beside
women and children is just impossible for the disciples so they
approached Jesus and requested him to dismiss the crowd. And
Jesus commanded them to give them some food.
We come to the Church like the crowd who followed Jesus. We
come and listen to him because his words are life giving, but he
is also aware that we are hungry not with the material food but
with spiritual food. So he feeds us with his body and blood.
Thus Jesus said, “Do not labor for food that perishes, but for
the food that endures for eternal life which the Son of man will
give you.”(Jn6:27) He gives us his own body. It is the Sacrament of communion not the sacrament of the Crowd, journey in
his footsteps, our unshakable faith in him, our eternal food.
In the Gospel, Jesus asks the help from the disciples, likewise,
Jesus asks the priest to celebrate Eucharistic celebration. In
Jesus command, priest invites the people to sit down and hear
the word of God and trusting in his word. Jesus anticipated the
Eucharistic celebration by blessing five loaves and two fish.
He took the bread and fish
Said blessing,
Broke them and,
Gave them to his disciples to distribute.
In the second reading (1Cor11:23-26) St. Paul gives an accurate
description of last supper, that is how Jesus blessed the five
loaves and two fish and it is how Jesus blessed the wine and
bread at the last Supper. It is considered as the oldest account
of the last Supper in the Scripture. We long for these real foods
that sustain our life, Church’s life and we follow his path, with
service, sharing and giving. Little we are but we share becomes
wealth. We experience the power Love. Eucharist is the heart
of the liturgy and our Christian life, if we remove our heart
from our body, how can it be possible that we continue to live?
Jesus is the Eucharist at the center of our lives. Is it possible
that the Church exists without the Eucharist? He desires that we
live each day with him making center of our lives, and the center our Church.

Respect Life Committee They Are Babies!
the babies being born are neither
Democrats or Republicans
There are five (5) Non-Negotiable issues that are
intrinsically evil and must never be promoted by the law.
Abortion: the intentional killing of innocent unborn life
Euthanasia: the killing of elderly or disabled or infirm is wrong – never
mercy
Embryonic Stem Cell Research: Human embryos are human beings
and deserve the respect as such
Human Cloning: is opposition to the natural and dignity of human sexuality given us by God
Homosexual “marriage”: legal recognition of any union other than 1
man & 1 woman in marriage is immoral
Catholics have a moral obligation to promote the common good
through the exercise of their voting privileges (ccc2240). Catholics
must avoid voting for any candidate who supports programs or laws
that are intrinsically evil. Be Aware – learn the candidates – register to
vote - then vote your moral conscience.
~~~~~~~
Until all are welcomed in life and protected in law.
Join us in the Rosary, Chaplet of Divine Mercy & song.
Many voices will end abortion & euthanasia.

DidYouKnow
Increase self-esteem through praise
Publication date: 5/30/2016
Praise is just as important as providing food and shelter for a
child. Praise is an important aspect of raising a confident child.
When you praise a child, not only do you raise their selfesteem and self-concept but you increase their overall selfworth. One thing you can do is focus on the child and describe
what you see. For example, you can say: “You are so patient.
That means a lot to your little brother.” For more tips on praising children please email jvienna@la-archdiocese.org or call
(213) 637-7227.

Elevación de la autoestima a través de elogios Los elogios son
tan importantes para un niño, así como lo es la comida y el
albergue. El elogio es un aspecto importante para criar a un
niño seguro de sí mismo. Cuando se elogia a un niño, no sólo
se eleva su autoestima y autoconcepto, sino que se aumenta su
autovaloración en general. Una cosa que se
puede hacer es enfocarse en el niño y describir lo que ve. Por ejemplo, usted puede
decir, “Tú eres tan paciente. Eso significa
mucho para tu hermanito”. Para más consejos sobre elogios a los niños, por favor
enviar un correo electrónico a jvienna@laarchdiocese.org o llame al (213) 637-7227.

Reflexionemos sobre la Palabra de Dios
29 de Mayo del 2016
Noticias del Programa de
Corpus Christi
El Evangelio de Lucas 9: 11-17) describe la
multitud o multitud que seguía a Jesús. Él está
en medio de ellos. Le siguieron, si eran hambre
o sed, fatiga o enfermo ... su atención se centró
en Jesús. Lo escuchan y sus palabras eran mágicas, tan celestial, reconfortante, alentador, sobre
todo, que da vida, pero Jesús sabía que también es igualmente
importante para ellos alimentar no sólo la palabra de Dios, sino
también el pan para el cuerpo. La alimentación de cinco mil
hombres, sin contar las mujeres y los niños es simplemente
imposible para los discípulos para que se acercaron a Jesús y le
pidieron que despedir a la multitud. Y Jesús les ordenó que
darles algo de comida.
Llegamos a la Iglesia como la multitud que siguió a Jesús. Llegamos y escuchar a él, porque sus palabras son vida que da,
pero también es consciente de que no tenemos hambre con la
comida material, pero con alimento espiritual. Así que nos alimenta con su cuerpo y sangre. Así, Jesús dijo: "Trabajad, no
por la comida que perece, sino por el alimento que permanece
para la vida eterna, que el Hijo del Hombre os dará." (Jn6: 27)
Él nos da su propio cuerpo. Es el Sacramento de la comunión
no es el sacramento de la multitud, el viaje de sus pasos, nuestra fe inquebrantable en él, nuestra comida eterna.
En el Evangelio, Jesús pide la ayuda de los discípulos, del mismo modo, Jesús pide al sacerdote para celebrar la Eucaristía. Al
mando de Jesús, sacerdote invita a la gente a sentarse y escuchar la palabra de Dios y confiando en su palabra. Jesús anticipó la celebración eucarística al bendecir cinco panes y dos peces.
1. Tomó el pan y los peces
2. Dicha bendición,
3. los partió y,
4. les dio a sus discípulos
para distribuir.

En la segunda lectura (1Cor11: 23-26) St. Paul da una descripción exacta de la última cena, así es como Jesús bendijo los
cinco panes y los dos peces, y es cómo Jesús bendijo el vino y
el pan en la última cena. Se considera como la cuenta más antigua de la Última Cena en la Escritura. Tenemos mucho tiempo
para estos alimentos reales que sustentan nuestra vida, la vida
de la Iglesia y seguimos su camino, con el servicio, compartir y
dar. Poco somos pero compartimos convierte en riqueza. Experimentamos el amor de potencia. Eucaristía es el corazón de la
liturgia y de nuestra vida cristiana, si quitamos el corazón de
nuestro cuerpo, ¿cómo puede ser posible que continuamos viviendo? Jesús es la Eucaristía en el centro de nuestras vidas.
¿Es posible que exista la Iglesia sin la Eucaristía? El desea que
vivimos cada día con él haciendo centro de nuestras vidas, y el
centro de nuestra Iglesia.
