Gospel John 21:1-19 The title of this wonderful story from John's Gospel might be "Surprise Picnic at the Beach." In a very human way, it shows the great love Jesus and his friends had for one another. While the disciples are out fishing, the risen Christ appears on the shore at Lake Tiberias. They are anchored at a distance and do not recognize him. But when they follow his advice and wind up with a sagging net full of fish, John figures out that the stranger is Jesus. Coming ashore, they enjoy the picnic breakfast Jesus has prepared for them. When the meal is over Jesus called Peter aside and asked Peter to "feed my lambs. Tend my sheep." We share a special meal as Jesus' disciples today. It is the Eucharist. We also recognize that Jesus calls us to care for others. **************************************** **************************************** Evangelio Juan 21:1-19 o 21:1-14

El título de esta maravillosa historia del Evangelio de Juan sería "Picnic sorpresa en la playa". En una forma muy humana muestra el gran amor que Jesús y sus amigos se tenían. Mientras los discípulos pescan, Cristo resucitado aparece en la orilla del Lago de Tiberíades. Ellos están lejos y no lo reconocen. Pero siguen su consejo y terminan con una red llena de peces, entonces Juan se da cuenta de que ese extraño es Jesús. Corriendo hacia la orilla, gozan del desayuno que Jesús les ha preparado.
Jesús llamó a Pedro después de la comida. El le pidió "apacentar sus ovejas". Como discípulos de Jesús compartimos una comida especial. Es la Eucaristía. También reconocemos que Jesús nos llama a cuidar de los demás.
