JOINING THE COMPANY OF BELIEVERS What will help you to believe? Today’s scripture read-ings tell of faith and doubt. They offer stories “recorded to help you believe,” as the passage from John’s Gospel (20:31) remarks today. There is an urgency about this. On this Second Sunday of Easter we are challenged to join the company of believers—countless men and women who wit-nessed the power of the apostles’ faith. There is no doubt that this power comes from Jesus Christ. The second reading, from the book of Revelation, reports John’s mystical vision of the Son of Man, who pro-claims, “Once I was dead, but now I live” (Revelation 1:18). The Gospel gathers everyone but Thomas to see the Risen Jesus and receive the Holy Spirit from him. Like Thomas, we who have come along later must have faith so that we can have life. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

UNIRSE A LA COMUNIDAD DE CREYENTES ¿Qué te ayudará a tener fe? Las lecturas bíblicas de hoy hablan de la fe y de la duda. Se “escribieron… para que ustedes crean”, como nos dice hoy el pasaje del Evangelio de san Juan (20:31). Tiene esto una cierta urgencia. En este Segundo Domingo de Pascua se nos lanza un desafío a unirnos a la comunidad de creyentes –un sinnúmero de hombres y mujeres que dan testimonio del poder de la fe de los Apóstoles. No hay duda que este poder viene de Jesucristo. La segunda lectura, del libro del Apocalipsis, relata la visión mística de Juan sobre el Hijo del Hombre, el cual proclama: “Estuve muerto y de nuevo soy el que vive” (Apocalipsis 1:18). El Evangelio reúne a todos excepto a Tomás para ver a Jesús resucitado y recibir de él el Espíritu Santo. Al igual que Tomás, los que hemos llegado más tarde debemos tener fe para poder tener vida.

ALLELUIA! Happy Easter from Sacred Heart School! Recently, a principal from a nearby school shared a story with me from a 2nd grade student at her school. The young man, after hearing the story of the Passion of Christ, shared with her how sad of a story it was, and how it must have “hurt’ Jesus to be nailed to the cross. He continued

talking about the events he had learned about, and at the end of his story, shared with her, “I’m so glad that it has a HAPPY ending!” Our Savior, Jesus Christ, has conquered death in order to give us a ‘happy” ending and Easter is our time to say “thank you” to him! His resurrection from the dead is not simply a fact of history to be retold at Easter, but a time to remember that Jesus is among us every day. We celebrate Him daily at Sacred Heart School… in our assemblies, our prayers, our classrooms and especially in the actions we share daily in our school community! Our Sacred Heart School students and staff would like to express our thanks to the Parish for the continued support you offer. We appreciate the generosity you have shown to support our tuition assistance and help with facilities. If you think you would like to explore joining us in the Catholic faith, please give us a call or stop by. We pray that our Risen Lord will be revealed to you in Word and Sacrament, in the love of family, friends and Church, in the witness of charity and holiness of life. The students and staff at Sacred Heart School wish you a blessed Easter celebration!

Blessing in Christ, Connie Rains, Principal
