News From The Streets…

The Legless Man By Mary Martha Primerano On my way to an appointment I noticed a homeless, middle aged, legless man racing across the street in his wheelchair. I slightly helped him on the sidewalk - honestly he was so pow-erfully strong, I don’t think he needed my help, and was about to pass him by when he loudly said, “Can you get me some-thing to eat?” I yelled as I kept walking, “I have no money on me”, what he said next stopped me dead in my tracks. “I don’t want any money; I just want something to eat!” In all my years of working downtown, no one has ever responded to me in such a manor. I headed back towards him and asked, “What would you like to eat?” he suggested the Tai restaurant right next to us so I wheeled him in. He blurted out that he wanted Mongolian Beef; do they have Mongolian Beef here? I was a bit amused as the waitresses quickly handed me a menu - nope no Mongolian Beef. He said, “Let’s go somewhere else!” I wheeled him out and was now getting a little agitated, but decided to focus on him as we headed toward Main Street. I asked him what his name was. He told me Scott, so I gently asked him what happened to his legs. He said it was diabetes and other health issues. I began to feel compassion for Scott, and now decided I would just focus on him and his needs. He finally chose a nice restaurant on Main Street. He ordered some fancy burger, sweet potato fries, and a diet coke. I paid the bill and wheeled him over to his table, and leaned over to him and asked him if he knew Jesus in a personal way. He said “yes I do”! I said good, and also told him that God loved him very much, and again he responded “I know He does.” I quickly said goodbye to Scott as I headed to my appointment across the street. Actually my appoint-ment was with Jesus at Holy Cross chapel, where I stop by and have some quiet time with Him. But how could I show up and pray if I ignored God’s basic gospel message? That message is to love extravagantly. While in the chapel I thanked God for Scott, and the opportunity to serve him. All it took was a mere 10 minutes - top’s to make him feel special, and that he mattered. Mark 10:44-45 “whoever wants to be first among you must be the slave of everyone else. For even the Son of man came not to be served, but to serve others, and to give his life as a ransom for many. “ If interested in volunteering please contact:

PAGINA 6 DOMINGO DE RAMOS, CICLO B 25 DE MARZO DEL 2018

SE REBAJÓ, POR ESO DIOS LO LE-

VANTÓ SOBRE TODO

El Día En Que Cristo Aceptó Ser Rey.- Nuestro Señor y Divino Salvador no aceptó la aclamación de las multitudes que pre-tendían hacerlo rey después de ver sus asombrosos milagros (cf. Jn 6,15). No quiso una corona cuando todos exclamaban: "¡todo lo hace bien!" (Mc 7,37). Huyó a la montaña muchas veces y a menudo se refugió en la oración y la intimidad con Dios, su Pa-dre (Mt 14,23). En todas esas ocasiones, cuando hubiera sido sencillísimo y casi natural proclamarse Hijo de David y sucesor del trono para liberar a Israel, guardó silencio, se ocultó discreto, oró en lo escondido, se apartó de las aclamaciones y los vítores. Pero hubo un día en que aceptó el aplauso y no huyó de la ovación de su pueblo. Un día Cristo aceptó ser rey, y selló su destino, cambió la historia y abrió un futuro para el universo entero con el gesto humilde y noble que hoy contemplamos: miremos todos, asómbrese el mundo, cante Judá y no calle Israel: Jesús, el Nazareno, es el Rey, y manso entra en la ciudad de Da-vid rodeado de humilde corte. ¿Por qué esta vez el Señor aceptó lo que antes rechazaba? ¿Por qué nos parece que se deja envolver en el entusiasmo de aquella multitud que por fin puede dar rienda suelta a su afecto y emoción? Es que bien sabía Jesús qué le es-peraba después de esos aplausos y cuánto cambiarían esas voces en cuestión de horas. Percibía su corazón el odio exacerbado de aquellos que veían en él un peligro para sus intereses. Sabía que los poderosos, tantas veces fustigados por el verbo del Verbo, terminarían por unirse, aunque sólo fuera para estar de acuerdo en quitarlo de en medio. Y en cuanto a sus discípulos, entendía cuán frágil era su amor, así le juraran lo contrario. Comprendía entonces que las cotas más altas de la maldad brotarían con inusitado ímpetu de uno a otro momento, y sabía que ser rey, en medio de semejante torbellino de pasiones y venganzas, más que un honor era un acto de compasión, una obra de misericordia, una manifestación, la última y más perfecta, de su amor inextin-guible. Frontispicio de la Semana Santa.- Este día, domingo que intro-duce la celebración de los misterios más hondos y bellos de nuestra fe, es como el frontispicio desde el que ya vemos la gran-deza que nos espera en la semana que comienza. Y por eso la Iglesia, después de invitarnos a cantar aclamaciones al Mesías Pacífico y verdadero Rey, nos invita a mirar en un solo y mara-villoso conjunto qué fue lo que entonces sucedió, para que nues-tros oídos se acostumbren a la música de drama y de amor que es la Pasión del Señor. Es bueno oír así de una sola vez la Pasión para entender que fue Uno solo el que todo sufrió y Uno solo el

que todo venció. Fue Uno solo el que cargó con nuestras culpas y Uno solo el que las arrojó a lo hondo del mar. Uno solo venció a nuestro enemigo, Uno solo triunfó sobre la muerte, Uno solo nos amó hasta el extremo, Uno solo nos dio el perdón, la paz, la gra-cia y la vida que no acaba. Uno solo: Jesucristo, el Hijo del Dios vivo. Miremos, pues, con ojos de gratitud y escuchemos con oídos de discípulo el sublime testimonio de este relato. Nada hay semejante en las páginas o escritos de esta tierra. Nada se compa-ra a la altura de ese perdón que, como en cascada, cae desde la Cruz para hacer un nuevo diluvio, no de venganza y castigo, sino de misericordia y de gracia. Nada tan útil y saludable como esta historia de redención, la única que será de nuestro interés cuando nuestros ojos se cierren a las vanidades de esta tierra y tengan que abrirse, para gloria o condena, en la eternidad.

P. Nelson Medina F., O.P.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE Esta es Semana Santa, semana en la cual los cristianos conmemoramos con palmas, y ramos los eventos centrales de nues-tra fe; eventos que alimentan nuestro espíritu con el pan y el vino del amor divino; eventos que se clavan en nuestras almas como Cristo en su cruz; eventos que nos hacen resucitar de nuestros pro-blemas con la esperanza pascual de la liberación de todo aquello que nos perjudica, que nos agobia, que nos oprime y nos deprime. Estaremos allí con nuestros parientes y con gente que no conocemos pero que son nuestros hermanos y hermanas en Cristo gracias a los eventos de la semana en que Jesús entró glorioso a Jerusalén, partió el pan, falleció en el árbol de la cruz y fue sepul-tado. Esta Semana nos une al misterio pascual de Jesús. Celebran-do estos ritos antiguos y variados por todo el mundo. Durante esta semana el tiempo y el espacio se cancelan para unirnos a los miste-rios que celebramos, a nuestras familias, a los cristianos por todo el mundo y a través de los siglos. —Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM, Copyright © J.
