This year’s group of nearly 3,000 candidates and catechumens who entered the Catholic Church in the Archdiocese included thousands of individuals from unique backgrounds, professions and states in life.

“All of them have the same attitude, a joyful outlook on becoming Catholic, even if they need help with working through different matters to fully enter,” Deacon Joe Millhouse, OCIA coordinator at the Co-Cathedral of the Sacred Heart in downtown Houston, said about the individuals in their parish’s OCIA program.

DIVINE MERCY SUNDAY
DOMINGO DE LA DIVINA MISERICORDIA

DOMINGO DE LA DIVINA MISERICORDIA
Así pues, es importante que acojamos íntegramente el mensaje que nos transmite la palabra de Dios en este segundo domingo de Pascua, que a partir de ahora en toda la Iglesia se designará con el nombre de "domingo de la Misericordia divina". A través de las diversas lecturas, la liturgia parece trazar el camino de la misericordia que, a la vez que reconstruye la relación de cada uno con Dios, suscita también entre los hombres nuevas relaciones de solidaridad fraterna. Cristo nos enseñó que "el hombre no sólo recibe y experimenta la misericordia de Dios, sino que está llamado a "usar misericordia" con los demás: "Bienaventurados los misericordiosos, porque ellos alcanzarán misericordia" (Mt 5, 7)" (Dives in misericordia, 14). Y nos señaló, además, los múltiples caminos de la misericordia, que no sólo perdona los pecados, sino que también sale al encuentro de todas las necesidades de los hombres. Jesús se inclinó sobre todas las miserias humanas, tanto materiales como espirituales.

Su mensaje de misericordia sigue llegándonos a través del gesto de sus manos tendidas hacia el hombre que sufre. Así lo vio y lo anunció a los hombres de todos los continentes sor Faustina, que, escondida en su convento de Lagiewniki, en Cracovia, hizo de su existencia un canto a la misericordia: "Misericordias Domini in aeternum cantabo". (Papa San Juan Pablo II 30 de abril de 2000)

DIVINE MERCY SUNDAY
It is important then that we accept the whole message that comes to us from the word of God on this Second Sunday of Easter, which from now on throughout the Church will be called "Divine Mercy Sunday". In the various readings, the liturgy seems to indicate the path of mercy which, while re-establishing the relationship of each person with God, also creates new relations of fraternal solidarity among human beings. Christ has taught us that "man not only receives and experiences the mercy of God, but is also called "to practise mercy' towards others: "Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy' (Mt 5: 7)" (Dives in misericordia, n. 14). He also showed us the many paths of mercy, which not only forgives sins but reaches out to all human needs. Jesus bent over every kind of human poverty, material and spiritual.

His message of mercy continues to reach us through his hands held out to suffering man. This is how Sr Faustina saw him and proclaimed him to people on all the continents when, hidden in her convent at £agiewniki in Kraków, she made her life a hymn to mercy: Misericordias Domini in aeternum cantabo. (Pope St. John Paul II April 30, 2000)

✅La tumba está vacía, el amor ha vencido y la muerte es solo un recuerdo. Hoy no celebramos un evento del pasado, celebramos una realidad presente: ¡Jesús está vivo hoy!

🔥¡Que tu vida sea hoy un grito de Aleluya! ✨

¡Felices Pascuas!

Today, we celebrate the Resurrection of the Lord!

The Paschal Triduum ends at sunset with the celebration of Evening Prayer, but the paschal candle will remain prominently displayed in the sanctuary for the next fifty days. This pillar of light will remind us that the long night of sin and death is over and that our Lord Jesus Christ stands revealed as the Light and Salvation of the world.

VIGILIA PASCUAL
El recorrido cuaresmal encuentra su cumplimiento en el Triduo Pascual, en particular en la Gran Vigilia de la Noche Santa: al renovar las promesas bautismales, reafirmamos que Cristo es el Señor de nuestra vida, la vida que Dios nos comunicó cuando renacimos «del agua y del Espíritu Santo», y confirmamos de nuevo nuestro firme compromiso de corresponder a la acción de la Gracia para ser sus discípulos.
Nuestro sumergirnos en la muerte y resurrección de Cristo mediante el sacramento del Bautismo, nos impulsa cada día a liberar nuestro corazón del peso de las cosas materiales, de un vínculo egoísta con la «tierra», que nos empobrece y nos impide estar disponibles y abiertos a Dios y al prójimo. En Cristo, Dios se ha revelado como Amor (cf. 1 Jn 4, 7-10). La Cruz de Cristo, la «palabra de la Cruz» manifiesta el poder salvífico de Dios (cf. 1 Co 1, 18), que se da para levantar al hombre y traerle la salvación: amor en su forma más radical (cf. Enc. Deus caritas est, 12). (Papa Benedicto XVI 2011)
