Monsignor Stephen N. Downes, Pastor) (Rev, Monsignor Stephen N. Downes, Pastor) Our celebration of Holy Week begins this Sunday with the triumphal entry of Jesus into Jerusalem. In holding palm branches, we honor Christ our King and cry out with the people of Jerusalem: “Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord.” In the Gospel of this Sunday’s Mass we hear St. Luke’s version of the Passion and Death of Jesus. In his presentation, Luke emphasizes healing (Jesus heals the ear of the High Priest’s servant in the Garden); forgiveness from the Cross (“Father, forgive them, they know not what they do”); and total trust in God (the last words of Jesus are: “Father, into your hands I commend my spirit”). Such is the great love of Christ for his heavenly Father and for all of us. Let us walk with Jesus during these days of Holy Week as he moves towards the Cross on Calvary and resurrection at Easter. His love for us is great, amazing, wondrous. Nuestra celebración de la Semana Santa comienza este Domingo con la entrada triunfal de Jesús en Jerusalén: “Bendito el Rey que viene en el nombre del Señor”. En el Evangelio de la Misa de este Domingo escuchamos la version de la Pasión y Muerte de Jesús .según San Lucas. En su presentación , el evangelista enfatiza la sanación ( Jesús sana el oído del sirviente del Sumo Sacerdote en el Huerto); perdona desde la cruz ( Padre, perdónales, porque no saben lo que hacen); y confianza total en Dios ( las últimas palabras de Jesús son: “ Padre, en tus manos encomiendo mi espíritu”). Tal es el amor de Cristo por su Padre Celestial y por nosotros. Caminemos con Jesús durante estos días de la Semana Santa, mientras camina hacia la cruz en el Calvario y su Resurrección en la Pascua. Su amor por nosotros es muy inmenso, asombroso y maravillosos • • • • • • • • The solemn blessing of palms will take place in front of Church before the 5:30 PM Saturday Vigil Mass. At other Masses this week-end, palms will be distributed as you enter Church and will be blessed during Mass. These are blessed palms – not toys for the children to play with. The full schedule of Holy Week and Easter services will be found elsewhere in today’s bulletin. This Palm Sunday the 2:30 PM Spanish Mass is changed to 3:00 PM (only this Sunday) because of overcrowding and traffic problems on Palm Sunday last year. On Palm Sunday and on Easter Sunday the Church parking lot will be closed once it is full and the Church will be closed once it is filled to capacity at any Mass on Palm Sunday or Easter Sunday. We encourage you to come to the Lenten Penance Service at Sacred Heart Church in Lancaster on Tuesday evening or here at St. Mary’s on Wednesday evening at 7:30 PM. There will be many priests available to help with the communal celebration of prayer, Scripture, confession of sin and experience of God’s forgiveness in the Sacrament of Penance. There will be no 5:30 PM Vigil Mass on Holy Saturday, April 7th. The Easter Vigil Service and Mass will be at 7:30 PM and will last about two and a half hours, followed by a reception in the Parish Hall to welcome those baptized and received into the Church at the Vigil Service. All are invited to the Easter Vigil Service on the holiest night in the Church year and to the reception afterwards. You are invited to bring bells from home to ring at the “Gloria” of the Easter Vigil Mass. • • • • La bendicicón solemne de las palmas tendrá lugar enfrente de la Iglesia antes de la Misa de 5:30 PM, en la Misa de la Vigilia el sábado. En las otras Misas de este fin de semana, las palmas se repartirán en la entrada de la Iglesia y se bedecirán durante la Misa. Estas son palmas benditas, no juguetes para entrtener a los niños. El horario complete para los Servicios de Semana Santa y la Pascua está en el boletín de hoy. Este Domingo de Ramos la Misa de 2:30 de la terde se ha cambiado par alas 3:00 de la tarde ( sólo este Domingo) debido a la gran multitud que asiste ese día y para evitar problemas de tráfico que ocurrieron el año pasado, en este día. El Domingo de Ramos y el Domingo de Pascua la Iglesia y el estacionamiento se cerrarán una vez que estén llenos a su maxima capacidad, en todas las Misas del Domingo de Ramos y el Domingo siguiente, Domingo de Pascua. Les pedimos que asistan a uno de los Servicios Penitenciales de Cuaresma, ya sea en la Iglesia del Sagrado Corazón en Lancaster, el martes a las 7:30 PM o aquí en Santa María, el miércoles a las 7:30 PM. Habrá muchos Sacerdotes para ayudar con el Servicio de oración, lectura y reflexión de la Sagrada Escritura, y luego las Confesiones individuales y la experiencia del amor y del perdón de Dios en el Sacramento de la Penitencia. • No habrá Misa de la vigilia el Sábado Santo, 7 de abril a las 5:30 PM, pues la Vigilia Pascual sera a las 7:30 de la noche y durará dos horas y media más o menos. Después de la Vigilia se dará una recepción en el Salón Parroquial a los ( Neófitos) aquellos que han sido bautizados y recibidos en la Iglesia, en la Vigilia Pascual. Todos están invitados a asistir en esta noche que es la más santa del añ en la Iglesia y a la recepción después. Page 3 Palm Sunday of the Lord’s Passion • On Easter Sunday the first Mass will be at 7:00 AM and there will be no 5:30 PM Sunday evening Mass. • Your Easter gift to God in the Easter collection at Offertory is a wonderful way of showing your love for Jesus and also an important part of our parish budget for the year. Your generous giving makes possible all the religious, educational and service programs of our parish. Many thanks and God’s blessings on you and your family. † Scripture Readings for Easter Sunday will be: Acts of the Apostles 10:34, 37-43; Colossians 3:1-4 or 1 Corinthians 5:6-8; John 20:1-9 NEWS ON A PARISH HALL A delay has taken place in plan for the construction of the new Parish Hall, meeting rooms and parish offices. The Archdiocese of Los Angels is not prepared to sign the contract for the construction until sure that our parish can meet the monthly payments on the loan for the new Church, parking lot and landscaping ($9million has been borrowed for this construction) and a new loan for the new Parish Hall and other buildings ($3 million more is needed). The only way to move forward is to show that the parishioners who have made pledges in the two Capital Campaigns (in 2003 & 2005) are faithfully and generously fulfilling their pledges. Your sacrifice now in fulfilling your pledge is all important. Many thanks to all who have given and continue to give generously to our Capital Campaign, “A Time to Build”. El Domingo de Resurrección la primera Misa del día sera a las 7:00 de la mañana y ese día no habrá Misa de 5:30 de la tarde. Su regalo de Pascua a Dios en el ofertorio de la Misa es una manera maravillosa de mostrar su amor por Jesús y también es muy importante para el presupuesto de nuestra Parroquia ente año. Recuerde que su generoso regalo hace posibles los programas religiosos, educacionales y de servicio de nuestra Parroquia. Muchas gracias y que Dios les llene de bendiciones en sus familias. † Las Lecturas de la Sagrada Escritura para el Domingo de Resurrección serán: Hechos de los Apóstoles 10: 34, 37-43; Colosesnes 3: 1-4; ó 1 Corintios 5: 6-8; Juan 20: 1-9. . NOTICIAS DEL SALON PARROQUIAL Hay un retraso en los planes de construcción del nuevo Salón Parroquial, salones para juntas y oficinas parroquiales. La Arquidiócesis de Los Angeles no firmará el contrato hasta constatar que nuestra Parroquia pueda hacer los pagos mensuales completos del primer préstamo el cual se usó para la construcción de la Iglesia nueva, el estacionamiento y las areas de jardineria que fue de $ 9 milliones y el que necesitamos para continuar, que es de $ 3 milliones. La unica manera de seguir adelante es demostrar que los que hicieran su promesa a la Campaña Capital (en el 2003 - 2005) la cumplan haciendo sus pagos generosamente. El sacrificio de cumplir su compromiso es sumamente importante en este momento para continuar con nuestra obra. Muchas gracias a todos los que han dado y continuan generosamente cumpliendo su promesa a nuestra Campaña. “Es Tiempo de Constuir” SAINT MARY’S CAPITAL CAMPAIGN REPORT 2/28/07 2003 Capital Campaign 2005 Capital Campaign Total Capital Campaign Total Pledges 2,149,407.45 4,520,007.42 6,669,414.87 Total Payment (1,443,026.89) (426,026.47) (1,869,053.36) 706,380.56 4,093,980.95 4,800,361.51 Total Unpaid Pledges Total # of Pledges 1,667 1,252 Total Pledges Paid/Current 745 606 Total # of Pledges Delinquent/Non Payment 922 646 Domingo de Ramos Page 4 Palm Sunday Penance Service with Confession Mass Schedule March 31 & April 1, 2007 ~~~~~~ Horario de Misas Servicio Penitencial con Confesión Tue.

In the land where Our Lord Jesus Christ chose to be born, where the ultimate loving sacrifice was made by his dying on the cross, and where his glorious resurrection took place...a desperate cry for help can be heard. For many centuries, the Franciscan Custody of the Holy Land and the Equestrian Order of the Holy Sepulchre of Jerusalem have been charged with the protection of Christians and the care of our holy shrines, including the Tomb of Christ. On Good Friday, a special collection is taken up worldwide for this very important cause. Please be very generous this Good Friday, as the needs are especially great due to the unrest in the land of Our Lord. May Our Lady of Palestine bless and embrace you!
