Dear people of Holy Cross,
Every fourth Sunday of Easter the Church in her wisdom
proclaims to us the Gospel of the Good Shepherd. What does a good Shepherd? The gospel answers us: “Jesus said: I
am the good shepherd. A good shepherd lays down his life
for the sheep.” This aspect is a new one that Jesus intro-
duced as St. John Paul II wrote, “Taking up this image of the
Good Shepherd, Jesus revealed an aspect of the Good Shep-
herd’s love that the Old Testament had not yet divined: to
lay one’s life for the sheep.” This gospel hits my heart very
strong, because it calls me to follow the steps of the true
shepherd Jesus Christ, and to follow his steps means to do
what Christ did that is to give one’s life, and this my broth-ers and sisters are not easy sometimes when the sheep are
being attacked by wolves as the gospel mentioned.
When I began praying to prepare this reflection. I revisited
some aspects that Canon Law mentions about the office of
being a shepherd which means Pastor. It says “A pastor is
obliged to make provision so that the word of God is pro-
claimed in its entirety to those living in the parish” (Can.
528 §1).The pastor is to see to it that the Most Holy Eucha-
rist is the center of the parish assembly of the faithful. (Can. 528, 2). In order to fulfill his office diligently, a pastor is to
strive to know the faithful entrusted to his care. (Can. 529
§1).
This is my dear brothers and sisters what I tried to do for
you, in the best way I can, knowing that also your pastor is
a very weak and poor man, that has many short comings, but who sincerely looks to love the Lord.
Yours in Christ,
Fr. Warli Castro
Querida gente de Holy Cross,
Cada cuarto domingo de Pascua, la Iglesia en su sabiduría nos
proclama el Evangelio del Buen Pastor. ¿Qué hace un buen Pastor? El evangelio nos responde: "Jesús dijo: Yo soy el buen
pastor. Un buen pastor da su vida por las ovejas. "Este aspecto
es uno nuevo que Jesús presentó como San Juan Pablo II escri-
bió:" Tomando esta imagen del Buen Pastor, Jesús reveló un
aspecto del amor del Buen Pastor que el El Antiguo Testamen-
to aún no había adivinado: poner la vida por las ovejas. "Este
evangelio golpea mi corazón muy fuerte, porque me llama a
seguir los pasos del verdadero pastor Jesucristo, y seguir sus
pasos significa hacer lo que hizo Cristo. Que es dar la propia
vida, y esto a mis hermanos y hermanas no es fácil a veces cuando las ovejas son atacadas por lobos como lo menciona
el evangelio.
Cuando comencé a orar para preparar esta reflexión. Revisé
algunos aspectos que la Ley Canónica menciona acerca de la
función de ser pastor, lo que significa Pastor. Dice: "Un pastor
está obligado a hacer provisiones para que la palabra de Dios
sea proclamada en su totalidad a los que viven en la parro-
quia" (Can 528 §1). El pastor debe velar por que la Sagrada
Eucaristía sea la centro de la asamblea parroquial de los fieles. (Can 528, 2). Para cumplir su oficio diligentemente, un pastor
debe esforzarse por conocer a los fieles confiados a su cuida-
do. (Can 529 §1).
Estos son mis queridos hermanos y hermanas, lo que trato de
hacer por ustedes, de la mejor manera que puedo, sabiendo
que también su pastor es un hombre muy débil y pobre, que
tiene muchas deficiencias, pero que sinceramente busca amar
al Señor.
En Cristo,
P. Warli Castro
