EASTER SUNDAY OF THE RESURRECTION OF THE LORD This second issue was decided at the Council of Nicea in 325, which WORSHIP decreed that Easter should be celebrated by all on the same Sunday, ENCOUNTER THE JOY OF THE GOSPEL Year One (2014): Individuals transformed by encounters with Jesus Christ Easter Sunday of the Resurrection of the Lord "They have taken the Lord from the tomb, and we don't know where they put him." Mary of Magdala, seeing the stone rolled away from Christ's burial place, runs to tell the disciples what she thinks is bad news. The grave is empty. Jesus' body must have been stolen. Clearly, resurrection isn't on her radar. As it says at the end of the passage, "They did not yet understand the Scripture that he had to rise from the dead." Only later, when Mary saw Jesus again face-to-face, did she come to understand what had actually happened. We, of course, know that the empty tomb really means good news! We know that the cross was not the end of the story, that Jesus conquered death, walked again amongst his followers, and ascended into heaven where he reigns even now. Unlike the first Christians, we have the testimony of history, the record of Scripture, and the benefit of tradition at our disposal. We have more reason to believe than Mary, Peter, or John did on first seeing the tomb! We need not waste any time "running" around like they did in search of the Savior. We know that Jesus is alive, and that sin and death have met their match. "Where, O death, is your victory?" we can now proclaim with St. Paul. "Where, O death, is your sting?" (1 Cor 15:55). Jesus has won! He is triumphant! This is the joy of Easter, based in fact and bolstered by faith. And we are the heirs of this great joy. As we sing in the Easter psalm, "This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad." On this most glorious of holy days, as we gather to feast with friends and family, let us be sure to recall the reason for our celebration: Christ is risen! Truly he is risen! Alleluia! ©Liturgical Publications Inc Bob Klaer Memorial Communion Cups Our Altar is enhanced this Easter with twelve new brass/gold communion cups, donated in loving memory of Bob Klaer. Bob was a founding father of St. Augustine Church, and for many years, along with his wife Chris, an extraordinary minister of the Eucharist. Bob’s funeral mass was celebrated at St. Augustine’s on February 19, 2014—as he passed over to God’s heavenly Banquet. There Jesus puts on the apron to serve his faithful followers. Easter Eucharist, and every Eucharist, is our great Thanksgiving Prayer with Christ to God our Father for being our Bread of Life and Cup of Salvation. Let us give thanks to the Lord our God, to Bob and Chris, and to all who share and serve the Eucharist so faithfully and generously. It is right and just! Deacon Corner: History of Easter: There is evidence that Christians originally celebrated the resurrection of Christ every Sunday, with observances such as Scripture readings, psalms, the Eucharist, and a prohibition against kneeling in prayer. At some point in the first two centuries, however, it became customary to celebrate the resurrection specially on one day each year. Many of the religious observances of this celebration were taken from the Jewish Passover. The specific day on which the resurrection should be celebrated became a major point of contention within the church. First, should it be on Jewish Passover no matter on what day that falls, or should it always fall on a Sunday? It seems Christians in Asia took the former position, while those everywhere else insisted on the latter. The eminent church fathers Irenaeus and Polycarp were among the Asiatic Christians, and they claimed the authority of St. John the Apostle for their position. Nevertheless, the church majority officially decided that Easter should always be celebrated on a Sunday. With this issue resolved, the next problem was to determine which Sunday to celebrate the resurrection. The Christians in Syria and Mesopotamia held their festival on the Sunday after the Jewish Passover (which itself varied a great deal), but those in Alexandria and other regions held it on the first Sunday after the spring equinox, without regard to the Passover. paschal moon must not precede the spring equinox), and that a particular church should determine the date of Easter and communicate it throughout the empire (probably Alexandria, with their skill in astronomical calculations). which Sunday shall be the first following the paschal moon (and the The policy was adopted throughout the empire, but Rome adopted an 84-year lunar cycle for determining the date, whereas Alexandria used a 19-year cycle. Use of these different "paschal cycles" persists to this day and contributes to the disparity between the eastern and western dates of Easter. Worship Corner: Extraordinary Ministers: Since the ordained ministers (bishops, priests, and deacons) are regarded as the ordinary ministers of Holy Communion, lay people who have been trained and commissioned for this ministry are referred to as extraordinary ministers of Holy Communion. Part of the impetus for the beginning of this ministry was the urging by the documents of Vatican II that all members of the community receive Holy Communion under the forms of both bread and wine. This necessitated more ministers for distribution to avoid taking an undue amount of time for the communion rite. This also makes them available to take Holy Communion to those who are sick or homebound. The Worship Committee is offering several books for your reading pleasure. The books are $3.00 each. CHRISTIAN FORMATION L.I.F.E. The next adult LIFE session is May 4th. It is our annual anniversary celebration session. Come prepared to learn AND celebrate. Parish Challenge!!

Contact Fran Kuzma Meditation Before MASS by Romano Guardini When we are invited to ‘lift up our hearts’ at Mass, we are asked at that moment to lift up our whole self to the Father. Even though the entire life of a Christian should be a constant raising of the mind and the heart to the one and eternal God, the Mass is a more intense, more intentional ‘lifting up.’ The children are doing Great with learning their prayers. Keep it up and add more to their list and/or learn some together as a family. Also, read from the Bible with your children. 1.

Domingo de Pascua de la Resurrección del Señor Reflexiones Domingo de Pascua de la Resurrección del Señor Cada creyente fiel al Señor recita en el credo la siguiente frase domingo a domingo: "Creemos en la resurrección de los muertos". Es decir, creemos en la reconstrucción de la persona humana. Creemos que la fe brota con alegría dentro de la primavera de nuestro corazón. Desde la Pascua, todos los sepulcros tienen el mismo destino que el de Jesús: quedar vacios. ¿Habías pensado esto? Las tumbas donde yacen nuestros seres queridos y a dónde iremos nosotros también algún día son lugares no permanentes, sino son provisionales. Por la sencilla razón de que Cristo venció a la muerte, su victoria nos alcanza a todos. Hoy la liturgia celebra la gran fiesta de todo el año. Pongamos todo nuestro esfuerzo en celebrar y programar bien las cosas. ¡Vale la pena! Recordemos que no todos los fieles van a la Vigilia Pascual. Muchos más asisten a las Misas del Domingo de Pascua. Los signos de la aspersión de agua bendecida en la Vigilia Pascual, la presencia del Cirio Pascual y la fuente bautismal son esenciales. Es tiempo de renovar la gracia del bautismo en cada persona. Sobre todo, la Eucaristía debe ser presentada como el gran Banquete de Pascua. Es en este domingo el momento de sobresaltar la realidad de nuestra iniciación cristiana que nos une al misterio pascual. La Eucaristía mantiene siempre viva la Pascua del Señor. Ésta es la cumbre y el motivo que celebramos hoy. La alegría cristiana debe ser nuestro orgullo en está Pascua del 2014. ¡El Señor ha Resucitado! ¡No busquen entre los muertos al que vive por siempre! ©Liturgical Publications Inc _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ___ Lecturas para la semana del 20 de abril de 2014 Domingo: Hch 10, 34. 37-43/Col 3, 1-4 o 1 Cor 5, 6-8/Jn 20, 1-9 o Mt 28, 1-10 o Lc 24, 13-35 Lunes: Hch 2, 14. 22-33/Mt 28, 8-15 Martes: Hch 2, 36-41/Jn 20, 11-18 Miércoles: Hch 3, 1-10/Lc 24, 13-35 Jueves: Hch 3, 11-26/Lc 24, 35-48 Viernes: Hch 4, 1-12/Jn 21, 1-14 Sábado: Hch 4, 13-21/Mc 16, 9-15 Domingo siguiente: Hch 2, 42-47/1 Pe 1, 3-9/Jn 20, 19-31 ©Liturgical Publications Inc 20 de Abril 2014 RETIRO CARISMÁTICO La Renovación Carismática Católica de la parroquia San Agustín, te invita al retiro de “La Primera Etapa del Discipulado” que se realizara el sábado 26 y domingo 27 de abril del 2014.
