A Word From Our Pastor
“I AM THE TRUE VINE”
In today’s gospel we hear Jesus saying to His disciples: “I am
the true vine”. Jesus as a great pedagogue (teacher) always uses

“MWEN SE PYE REZEN AN”
Nan levanjil jodi-a nap wè Jezu kap di apot Li yo:
“Mwen se pye rezen tout bon an”. Jezu kòm yon bon profesè toujou
itilize imaj, parabòl ak ekzanp nan lansèyman Li yo ke moun kap
koute L yo te kapab fasilman konprann. Nou sonje kouman nan levanjil dimanch pase a Jezu te konpare tèt li ak limaj bon gadyen an,
yon imaj ke moun yo pat gen problèm pou konprann. Nan levanjil
jodi-a nap wè Jezu kap itilize yon lòt bèl imaj ou pale de Li menm.
Li te deklare bay patizan Li yo: Mwen se pye rezen an, nou se
branch yo. Moun ki fè yonn avè m', moun mwen fè yonn ak li, l'ap
donnen anpil, paske nou pa kapab fè anyen san mwen (Jan 15:5).
Nan mesaj sa Jezu vle fè tout patizan Li yo konprann enpòtans pou
remèt tout lavi yo nan menm Granmèt la paske san Li nou paka
fè anyen.
Frè ak sè mwen yo, nou tout konnen tre byen ke si yon patizan Granmèt la vle rete fidèl a Li epi menmen yon lavi ki kòrèk nèt
yon sèl bagay nou dwe fè se grefe nou sou Granmèt la ki se vrè
pye rezen an. Konsa, nou ka deklare menm janm ak sen Pòl: Se
sak fè, se pa mwen k'ap viv ankò, se Kris la k'ap viv nan mwen
(Galat 2:20a).

PARA DAR FRUTO
“Hijos míos: No amemos solamente de palabra; amemos de verdad y con las
obras”. Las palabras de Juan nos llegan hoy cuando el pasaje del Evangelio nos
presenta con la gran imagen del viñedo y las ramas. Jesús usa la imagen como un
aviso a los que se han empezado a distanciar de la senda del Señor. Esto sucede
cuando amamos a Dios y a otros “con palabras o dichos” y no con “la verdad y
las obras”. ¿Qué significa para nosotros “permanecer en Cristo”? El Señor nos da
un ejemplo con la extensión de la metáfora. Si permanecemos en él, daremos mucho fruto. Como ramas sacamos la fuerza de Cristo que es la viña. Esa fuerza nos
facilita dar fruto –hacer el trabajo de los verdaderos discípulos.

“YO SOY EL BUEN PASTOR, PORQUE CONOZCO MIS OVEJAS Y ELLAS ME
CONOCEN A Mí”.
El cuarto Domingo de Pascua nos presenta el ícono del Buen Pastor que conoce a sus
ovejas, las llama por su nombre, las alimenta y las guía. Hace más de 50 años que en este
domingo celebramos la Jornada Mundial de Oración por las Vocaciones. Esta Jornada nos
recuerda la importancia de rezar para que, como dijo Jesús a sus discípulos, «el dueño de
la mies… mande obreros a su mies» (Lc 10,2). Jesús nos dio este mandamiento en el contexto de un envío misionero: además de los doce apóstoles, llamó a otros setenta y dos
discípulos y los mandó de dos en dos para la misión.
“ Jóvenes! “Si ustedes oyen hoy su voz, no endurezcan el corazón”!

Philanthropists William B. Finneran, Frankie Stevens, Barbara Messier and
Richard Schmeelk along with the Sacred Heart School children recreate their
S.O.S pose from 5 years ago when the school almost closed.
Lake Worth, Florida - March 13, 2015: The children of Sacred Heart School
along with phyloanthropist William B. Finneran, Richard Schmeelk, Frankie Stevens, Father Quesnel Delvard, Barbara Messeir and Principal Candace Tamposi
line up to form the shape of S.O.S. for an aerial photograph. Five years ago, Sacred Heart School faced some rough times and was on the verge of closing its
doors. One of their children suggested that the school send out an SOS to the
community to help us raise the money to stay open. Philanthropists such as Cathleen McFarlane Ross (deceased 2010), William B. Finneran, Frankie Stevens, the
honorable Judge Rodney Eielson, Barbara Messier and Richard Schmeelk heard
the call on the news and came to the rescue. Mr. Schmeelk a retired Navy man
himself understood the SOS call. He came to visit the school and told them that
they would not close. He then gathered a few of his friends from Palm Beach and
formed the school’s Executive Board. Together, the School and the SHS Executive Board put on several fundraisers which helped save the school. (See YouTube: Sacred Heart S.O.S. Music Video - Save Our School! or Students send
'SOS' To Keep School Open).
“Today SHS is stronger and we want to thank the community for helping us thrive by recreating the pose that started it all. Oh, by the
way! The student that suggested we send out an SOS call is now in 8th
grade! (See YouTube: Sacred Heart School stronger video (written by
the Principal's daughter and SHS Alumni, Ali Tamposi). We want the
community to know that we have full enrollment, the William B. Finneran Montessori Academy for early learning, a fully operational
S.T.E.M. (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) Lab and a
sports program which includes Basketball, Soccer, Baseball and Softball. As a matter of fact our Boys Varsity Soccer team and Girls Varsity Basketball team won trophies this school year. Could you imagine
what these children could do if they had a Gym they could practice
in? You see the children at Sacred Heart School haven't (in 70
years) experienced a home game. Can you imagine that? We hope to
change all of this by building the SHS Gymnatorium! HOME OF THE
PANTHERS!”
The school is working hard to meet their fundraising goal for the Gymnatorium
project. If you would like to make a contribution please contact Sacred Heart
School’s Principal Candace Tamposi at 561-582-2242
