RENGLONES RECTOS
“Dios escribe derecho en renglones torcidos”, dice el refrán. El testimonio contundente
de san Pablo, cuando nos dice que todo es basura fuera del conocer a Cristo y experimentar la fuerza de su Resurrección, es un mensaje bien directo y claro –aunque Dios
sabe que Pablo anduvo por una senda bien torcida antes de recibir la luz cegadora del
Señor.
Isaías nos recuerda que los grandes milagros del pasado no son nada en comparación
con la nueva creación que Dios va a realizar. “¿No lo notan?” nos pregunta el profeta,
como si todavía anduviéramos perdidos por nuestras sendas torcidas.
Y no hay renglón más derecho que la línea que conecta la intensa miseria de una mujer
pecadora con la misericordia de Dios que se muestra en la persona de Jesús. ¡Eso sí que
son Buenas Nuevas!”

STRAIGHT LINES
“God writes straight with crooked lines,” the saying goes. The power of Paul’s testimony that everything is junk but knowledge of Jesus and the power of his resurrection is a
straight enough message. And, God knows, Paul had a crooked journey before his
blinding insight straight from God.
Through Isaiah, God reminds us all that the past great works were as nothing compared
to the new creation. “Can’t you see it?” we are asked, as if we are still wandering along
our crooked lines.
And there is no straighter line than that between the woman whose misery is intense and
the God whose mercy in Jesus is deeper and more acute. You just can’t beat this kind of
good news.

Fifth Sunday of Lent
How fitting that the first Sunday Angelus of Pope Francis,
who has made mercy his papacy’s theme, took place the last
time today’s Gospel about Jesus’ encounter with the adulterous woman was proclaimed. “Jesus’ attitude is striking,”
Francis declared. “We do not hear words of scorn or condemnation, only words of love, of mercy, an invitation to
conversion: ‘Neither do I condemn you’ ” (John 8:11). Francis continued: “God’s face is the face of a merciful father
who is always patient. Have you thought about God’s patience, the patience [God] has with each one of us? That is
[God’s] mercy. [God] always has patience, patience with us .
. . understands us . . . waits for us . . . does not tire of forgiving us” if we return ‘with a contrite heart” (Pope Francis,
Angelus address, March 17, 2013). Parishes preparing catechumens may proclaim Jesus’ raising of Lazarus. Referring
to Lazarus, and all those “raised” from the “death” of sin,
Jesus defines the community’s “mission of mercy”— “Untie
him and let him go” (John 11:44).

Quinto Domingo de Cuaresma
Otra de tantas coincidencias sucede otra vez, el primer Ángelus que rezó el Papa Francisco fue en la fecha en la última
vez que se proclamó la historia del Evangelio de hoy, el
encuentro de Jesús con la mujer adultera . . . En ese entonces
el Papa Francisco dijo que “la actitud de Jesús es
sorprendente”. “No escuchamos palabras de condenación o
desprecio, solo palabras de amor, de misericordia, una invitación a la conversión: ‘Tampoco yo te condeno’ ” (Juan
8:11). El Papa Francisco continua diciendo: “el rostro de
Dios es el de un padre misericordioso, que siempre tiene
paciencia. ¿Han pensado en la paciencia de Dios, la paciencia que tiene con cada uno de nosotros? Ésa es su misericordia. Siempre tiene paciencia, paciencia con nosotros, nos
comprende, nos espera, no se cansa de perdonarnos si sabemos volver a él con el corazón contrito” (Papa Francisco,
Rezo del Ángelus del 17 de marzo de 2013). Las parroquias
que están preparando a catecúmenos pueden proclamar la
historia de Lázaro cuando vuelve a la vida. Refiriéndose a
Lázaro y a todos aquellos que “se despertaron” de la
“muerte” del pecado, Jesús define la “misión de misericordia” de la comunidad: “Desátenlo y déjenlo ir” (Juan 11:44).

LA PURÍSIMA FISH FRY 2016
“Welcome Day” Program
st
th
For 1 Grade through 7 Grade Guest Students
ONLY 1 WEEK LEFT FOR FISH FRY
Tuesday, April 5, 2016
Are you wondering if LPCS would be a good fit for your child?
What plans do you have for your child during Spring Break?
Will your child be home all day playing video games, or hanging
out with their friends without any supervision?
What if your child could be in a safe and productive environment
for FREE (for at least one day during break)?
Register your child to participate in our “Welcome Day” Program!
RSVP no later than Tuesday, March 22nd.
Spaces are limited, so register your child today!
During this sacred time of year, your child will not only
experience our well-rounded curriculum, but they will also be
integrated in the teachings of our faith, and the joy that makes
LPCS special. Call the School Office for more information or
visit our website at www.lpcs.net to download a form.
If you haven’t been to the Fish Fry yet, you don’t know what
your missing….one of the best Fish Fries in the Southland.
We have the traditional fish and chips, fish tacos, popcorn
shrimp, Fried Tiger Shrimp, Salmon, Artisan Pizza, Egg
Rolls, and Fried Rice. There’s also lots of drinks and desserts
provided by the parents of La Purísima students.
We have lost our donation of a trash bin for the Fish Fry. If
anyone has access to a trash bin or knows someone who
might be willing to donate a trash bin for Friday night, please
contact Frank at the number listed below. The trash bin is
needed from 5:00 - 10:00 pm on Friday. We need a big
one…but any size will help.
Our number of volunteers has dropped off from the first two
weeks and we now desperately need your help especially for
cleanup beginning at 8:00 pm. It seems that we get a lot of
volunteers the first week and everyone thinks their effort is
not needed. Maybe that was true in week 1 ….. but not now
…… WE NEED YOU, PLEASE COME
Any donations to offset food costs are greatly appreciated.
ONCE AGAIN THIS YEAR’S PROCEEDS SUPPORT
THE SCHOOL 100%.
Also consider a donation of $5.00 or more to support the
FISH FRY FOR ALL PROGRAM. Tickets are distributed
by the Trinity Guild. If you can help in any way, contact
Frank Micheletti at (714) 997-7990 or at:
fsmichel1963@yahoo.com
JOIN LA PURÍSIMA FOR FAMILY BASEBALL NIGHT

Church, families, and community, look to the Knights of
Columbus. The K of C provides an opportunity for fraternal
camaraderie, while meeting our families, and supporting the
priests and community.
The Knights were formed to render financial aid to members
and their families. Mutual aid and assistance are offered to
sick, disabled, and needy members and their families.
K of C from La Purisima and Holy Family Cathedral meet
the first Thursday of the month and are active in several
fundraisers and community activities. These include La Purisima Fish Fry, Holy Family Fiesta, golf tournament, OLSF
basketball free throw contest for students, and meal preparation for Isaiah House.
