Estimada Familia de la Catedral de Santiago,

¡Continuamos celebrando con alegría la Gloria del Domingo

de Pascua! Nos encontramos en la sala superior, a puerta

cerrada, con los discípulos del Señor resucitado. Dos de los

discípulos, devastados por la brutal crucifixión de su

Maestro, decidieron llorar su pérdida caminando hacia un

pueblo llamado Emaús. En el camino, el Señor se les apareció,

pero no lo reconocieron. Las dudas, la confusión y la tristeza

perjudicaron su capacidad de reconocer a Jesús. Sus ojos se

abrieron cuando, en la cena, Jesús partió el pan y se lo dio.

Se habían dicho unos a otros: "¿No ardía nuestro corazón

cuando nos hablaba por el camino? ¡Es cierto que ha resu-

citado! ". El Evangelio de hoy continúa la hermosa historia

de Emaús al conectarnos con el regreso de los dos discípu-

los a Jerusalén, ya que compartieron con los otros discípulos

lo que habían presenciado. Cada pasaje que nos conecta

con el Señor resucitado nos permite descubrir no solo un

encuentro poderoso con Él, sino una invitación para ir y

compartir las Buenas Nuevas.

Este fin de semana en las Misas de las 4:00, 9:00 y

10:30AM, un grupo de niños recibirán su Primera Comu-

nión. Al igual que los dos discípulos camino a Emaús, estos

niños están concluyendo un viaje que los llevó al banquete

que Jesús preparó para todos nosotros. Quiero agradecer a

la Sra. Renee Jones y su maravilloso equipo de catequistas

que han preparado a los niños para su Primera Comunión.

También, deseo agradecer a la Sra. Dawn Helwig y la fa-

cultad de la Escuela de la Catedral de Santiago, por apoyar

nuestro programa de Preparación Sacramental para niños.

Que el Señor Resucitado continúe alimentándonos con el

don de Su Cuerpo y Su Sangre para que podamos dar testi-

monio de lo que Él continúa haciendo por nosotros.

En Cristo,

Reverendo Miguel A. González

Dear St. James Cathedral Family,

We continue to celebrate with joy the Glory of Easter

Sunday! We find ourselves in the upper room behind

closed doors, with the disciples of the risen Lord. Two of

the disciples, devastated by the brutal crucifixion of their

Master, decided to grieve their loss, by walking to a town

called Emmaus. Along the way the Lord appeared to them,

but they failed to recognize Him. Doubts, confusion, and

sadness impaired their ability to recognize Jesus. Their

eyes were opened when at supper Jesus breaks the bread,

and gives it to them. They had said to each other:

“Weren’t our hearts burning when He spoke to us along

the way? It’s true He has risen!” Today’s Gospel continues

the beautiful Emmaus story by connecting us with the return

of the two disciples to Jerusalem, as they shared with the

other disciples what they had witnessed. Each passage that

connects us with the risen Lord allows us to discover not

only a powerful encounter with Him, but an instruction to

go and share the Good News.

This weekend at the 4:00, 9:00, and 10:30AM Masses, children

will be receiving their First Holy Communion. Like the

two disciples on their way to Emmaus these children are

concluding a journey that has led them to the banquet Jesus

has prepared for us all. I want to thank Ms. Renee Jones

and her wonderful team of catechists that have prepared

the children for their First Communion. I also wish to

thank Mrs. Dawn Helwig and the faculty of St. James Cathedral

School, for supporting our Sacramental Preparation program

for children.

May the Resurrected Lord continue to nourish us with the

gift of His Body and Blood in order for us to give witness

of what He continues to do for us.

In Christ,

Very Reverend Miguel A. González

A final decision? Before they left their faith, the young former Catholics were involved in the Church to varying extents. Twenty-eight percent told CARA that they rarely or never attended Mass at the time when they considered themselves Catholic. Only 17 percent surveyed said that they attended Mass weekly when they were Catholic. Three-fourths of the respondents never attended a Catholic school. Eighty-seven percent of these former Catholics said that their decision to leave the Church is final. Vitek noted that “this is a response given at a particular point in their life and they can’t predict the future. So there is always hope for the believing community.” Studies do show, however, that “more and more, once a person chooses to disaffiliate from the Church they are not re-affiliating later in life,” he added. As for what the Church can do to prevent young people from rejecting their faith, Vitek recommends, “We need to create a place where young people can freely wrestle with their questions of faith, including their doubt…” “We found that young people want to talk about their faith but they aren’t sure if they can without judgment,” he said.

¿Una decisión final? Antes de dejar su fe, los jóvenes ex Católicos estuvieron involucrados en la Iglesia en diferentes etapas. El 28% le dijo a CARA que rara vez o nunca asistieron a Misa en el momento en que se consideraban Católicos. Solo el 17 por ciento de los encuestados dijeron que asistían a Misa semanalmente cuando eran Católicos. Tres cuartas partes de los encuestados nunca asistieron a una Escuela Católica. El ochenta y siete por ciento de estos ex Católicos dijeron que su decisión de abandonar la Iglesia es definitiva. Vitek señaló que "esta es una respuesta dada en un momento particular de su vida y no puede predecir el futuro. Entonces, siempre hay esperanza para la comunidad de creyentes ". Los estudios demuestran, sin embargo, que "cada vez más, una vez que una persona decide desafiliarse de la Iglesia no se vuelven a afiliar más tarde en la vida", agregó En cuanto a lo que la Iglesia puede hacer para evitar que los jóvenes rechacen su fe, Vitek recomienda: "Necesitamos crear un lugar donde los jóvenes puedan luchar libremente con sus preguntas sobre la fe, incluida su duda…" "Descubrimos que los jóvenes quieren hablar sobre su fe, pero no están seguros si pueden hacerlo sin ser juzgados", dijo.
