Dies Domini: The Day of the Lord
Sunday has been called the “Lord’s Day” from Apostolic times (St. Justin
Martyr). It is this day of the week above all others that is most closely associated
with the Lord because Christ’s Resurrection took place on a Sunday. “It is Easter
which returns week by week, celebrating Christ’s victory over sin and death, the
fulfillment in him of the first creation and the dawn of the new creation (Dies
Office/Oficina
Domini, 1)”.
Sunday invites us to joy, like the joy the two disciples on the road to Emmaus felt
302 South B Street
as the Lord explained the Scriptures to them: they felt their hearts “burn within
620-442-0566
them” as he walked on the road with them and revealed himself in the breaking of
Monday/Lunes
the bread.
9:00 a.m. -3:30p.m.
By commemorating the day of Christ’s Resurrection, not only once a year, but
Tuesday-Friday/Martes-Viernes
every Sunday, the Church points out to the world that Christ’s Resurrection is “the
9:00 a.m. - 4:00p.m.
true fulcrum of history, to which the mystery of the world’s origin and its final
[email protected]
destiny leads”.
The development of the “weekend”, as a regular part of ordinary life, has had
www.sacredheartac.com
many positive effects on society, giving men and women more leisure time and
opportunities to travel and to gather together. The weekend responds to our human
School/Escuela
need for rest and also for celebration. Unfortunately, Sunday loses its fundamental
312 South B Street
meaning when it becomes merely part of the “weekend”, another day.
620-442-6550
We have to make a distinction between the celebration of Sunday, and keeping
[email protected]
the Lord’s Day holy, and the “weekend”, understood as a time of simple rest and
relaxation. This requires spiritual maturity and a deep desire to seek the Lord. This
Easter, as we renew our baptismal commitments to Our Lord, pray for a renewed commitment to the “Lord’s Day”.

salvation are set free from sin, sorrow, inner emptiness
and loneliness.” Pope Francis

you sometimes wonder how God could possibly love you
and extend His Mercy? Tired of stewardship only being
church chores, rather than a joy filled relationship with
Jesus? Mark your calendar and make plans to attend the
Spiritual Life Center Parish Mission held at our parish
beginning Saturday May 6th, 2017. This Saturday,
Sunday, and Monday night Mission entitled “Encountering
Christ with Joy” will be presented by Father Ken

Meditación del Párroco:
Dies Domini: El Día del Señor
El domingo ha sido llamado el "Día del Señor" desde los tiempos apostólicos (San Justino Mártir). Es este día de la semana por
encima de todos los demás que está más estrechamente asociado con el Señor porque la Resurrección de Cristo ocurrió en un
domingo. "Es la Pascua de la semana, en la que se celebra la victoria de Cristo sobre el pecado y la muerte, la realización en él de
la primera creación y el inicio de la ‘nueva creación’ (Dies Domini, 1).”
El domingo nos invita a la alegría, como la alegría que los dos discípulos en el camino de Emaús sintieron cuando el Señor les
explicó las Escrituras: sentían que sus corazones "ardían dentro de ellos" mientras el Señor caminaba con ellos y se revelaba en el
partido del pan.
Al conmemorar el día de la Resurrección de Cristo, no sólo una vez al año, sino todos los domingos, la Iglesia señala al mundo
que la Resurrección de Cristo es "el verdadero fulcro de la historia a la que conduce el misterio del origen del mundo y su destino
final”.
El desarrollo del "fin de semana", como parte regular de la vida cotidiana, ha tenido muchos efectos positivos en la sociedad,
dando a los hombres y mujeres más tiempo libre y oportunidades para viajar y reunirse. El fin de semana responde a nuestra
necesidad humana de descanso y también de celebración. Desafortunadamente, el domingo pierde su significado fundamental
cuando se convierte simplemente en parte del "fin de semana", otro día.
Tenemos que hacer una distinción entre la celebración del domingo, y mantener el Día del Señor santo, y el "fin de semana",
entendido como un tiempo de simple descanso y relajación. Esto requiere madurez espiritual y un profundo deseo de buscar al
Señor. Esta Pascua, a medida que renovamos nuestros compromisos bautismales con Nuestro Señor, rezamos por un renovado
compromiso con el "Día del Señor".
