Recordamos de una manera muy especial el gran misterio del triunfo de Cristo sobre la muerte. El Resucitado viene a cada uno de nosotros diciendo “La paz esté con ustedes. Estoy con ustedes ahora y para siempre.” Hoy celebramos la esencia de la Eucaristía, aquello que nos reúne cada semana: que el Señor está entre nosotros para salvar y darnos la vida. Cada domingo del año comparte la luz de este domingo Pascual. Pero la Pascua no dura sólo un día. La Pascua dura 50 días. En verdad es una temporada que la Iglesia nos da para entrar más profundamente en la alegría que el Cristo Resucitado nos ha ofrecido. Nos da la oportunidad de gustar y ver la bondad del Señor que quiere que experimentemos su amor eterno por el amor sacrificial de su Hijo, Jesucristo. Durante esta temporada Pascual escucharemos las historias que nos cuentan de los primeros discípulos que se encontraron al Cristo Resucitado en el cenáculo, en el camino a Emaús, en la playa del lago de Galilea, en el jardín donde se colocó la tumba donde sepultaron a Jesús. Como aquellos discípulos, tendremos la oportunidad de ver y oír a Jesucristo. ¿Estamos dispuestos a verlo con ojos abiertos y oírlo con oídos abiertos? ¿Dejaremos recibir en nosotros su promesa de la paz, la alegría y del amor eterno? Les deseo que tengan una temporada Pascual llena de toda la alegría y de todas las bendiciones de nuestro Señor, el Resucitado. En el amor de Cristo, Padre Bob Calendario El 27 de Abril a la una y media Reunión del Consejo Hispano Preparación para el sacramento de Confirmación 3.
