“Be not simply good, be good for something!”
... This is ‘Good Shepherd Sunday’, from the Gospel for today (26), and is World Day of Prayer for
Vocations to the Priesthood. Pray for and support
our priests, and nurture vocations by your own
faith, goodness and joy! It’s not about other people, it’s about our celebration of God’s goodness!
... Today (26) is the 14th Anniversary of the death
of Deacon Richard Corder, who joyfully served
here at Saint John for many years. Dick preached
at daily Mass, and put great joy into baptisms and
funerals! His dear wife, Virginia, keeps in touch
with us. May he rest in peace. A good shepherd!

and watch for the early bird’ drawings!

$16,358.00, with 402 families using envelopes. A

... Tuesday (28) is the 8th Anniversary of the
tragic death of Father Walter Vogel OSA, who was
born in 1935 on Ecke Farm here in Encinitas, and
whose family is ever with us. Father Walt was ordained a priest in 1963, and served for many years
as a counselor at Saint Augustine High School in San
Diego. He was readily available for ‘weekend supply’ in parishes, and was a gourmet ‘cook’! At the
time of his death, following a tragic automobile
accident, he was to a popular Associate, and soon to
be Pastor, at Our Mother of Good Counsel, in Hollywood. A mighty shepherd! May he rest in peace.
... This Thursday (30) is the 12th Anniversary of
the death, from cancer, of Father Eduardo Gudino
at the young age of 42. Ordained in 1994, his first
assignment was here at Saint John. Another good
shepherd! May he too rest in peace.
... San Diego Blood Bank is with us this Wednesday (29), Thursday (30) and Friday (1), 1:30pm to
6:30pm each day, right outside the church. A great
opportunity to give the ‘gift of life’!
... We welcome two of Monsignor Harnett’s nephews and a niece, visiting from Ireland and Australia,
‘checking up’ on both Monsignor and their aunt,
Sister Winnie! Céad míle fáilte!
... The Sunday 9:00am Mass is streamed live to

Saint John the Evangelist
YO SOY EL BUEN PASTOR
El Cuarto Domingo de Pascua tradicionalmente se
conoce como el “Domingo del Buen Pastor”. Hoy
escuchamos las palabras
del Señor cuando se llama
a sí mismo “el buen pastor
que da la vida por sus
ovejas.” A veces es tan
difícil para nosotros
comprender la realidad de
que alguien esté dispuesto
a dar su vida por alguien.
Esto es muy cierto en una
sociedad que pone tanto énfasis en el poder y en el
avance social, con frecuencia a expensas de “pisotear” a
otra gente para escalar a la cima. Las Escrituras de hoy
nos muestran a quién debemos imitar –al que da su vida
por las ovejas. Las Escrituras de hoy nos retan a descubrir
la manera de llevar vida a los que están a nuestro
alrededor –a construir y no a destruir.
UNA IMAGEN RADICAL
Imágenes antiguas de Cristo lo mostraban como un
pastor joven cargando una ovejita en sus hombros. Él
mismo se presenta
como el Buen Pastor
(Juan 10:11). Esta
imagen que nos
conforta con el amor
de Cristo, es en
realidad una imagen
radical. Hay que saber
dos cosas sobre el
pastor palestino de aquella época: 1) los pastores eran
considerados sucios, peligrosos y ladrones, y 2) cuando
cargaban una ovejita era porque ellos mismos le habían
quebrado la pierna.
¿Porque Jesús se describe como uno de ellos?
Jesús ve más allá de las apariencias y los estereotipos, y
se asocia con aquellas personas que la sociedad de su
tiempo odiaba y marginaba. Por voluntad propia decide
estar entre los pobres y despreciados. Si Jesús viniera a
la tierra en nuestro tiempo, se describiría a sí mismo
como el buen inmigrante.
En cuanto a la ovejita sobre el hombro: en casos
extremos, de ovejas rebeldes que se alejaban del rebaño,
los pastores tenían que quebrarles la pierna para cargarlas
sobre los hombros. De esta manera las amansaban para
que no se alejaran de él. Dios no hace esto en nosotros,
pero tampoco nos evita el sufrimiento. Antes bien, nos
ayuda a llevarlo de manera heroica, como lo hizo con el
santo Job.
