On this Pentecost Sunday, the close of the Easter season, all of our Readings from the Word of God speak to us about the Holy Spirit. The Acts of the Apostles recounts the day when the Spirit was poured out upon the fledgling Church with “a sound like the rush of a violent wind, and [...]
Today’s celebration of the Ascension marks the return of Jesus to the Father after the Resurrection. We know from the gospel in another place that Jesus’ return to the Father was accompanied by a promise that he would remain with us until the “end of the age”: that is, until the end of time. In [...]
“Jesus said to the disciples, ‘I have said these things to you while I am still with you. But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you everything, and remind you of all that I have said to you.’” Our gospel is especially appropriate this Sunday when [...]
This Sunday, May 5th at the 11:30am Mass, Bishop Richard Grecco will celebrate the sacrament of Confirmation with 46 young parishioners. These Grade 9 students have been preparing for the sacrament of Confirmation since last Fall. They attended three sessions last Fall with guest speakers who shared about living our Catholic Faith, Faith growth and [...]
On this weekend when we celebrate First Communion in our parish, the gospel gives us something to consider about the mystery and gift of the Eucharist. Jesus says to his disciples—among them, the little ones and all of us—“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, [...]
The Fourth Sunday of Easter has traditionally been called “Good Shepherd Sunday” because the gospel is one in which Jesus is presented as the “Good Shepherd.” Today, he doesn’t refer to himself directly by that title, but implies it when he says, “My sheep hear my voice. I know them, and they follow me. I [...]
“Simon, son of John, do you love me…do you love me…do you love me?” Three times in today’s Gospel Jesus poses this question to Peter. Those who study the Bible connect this three-fold query that Jesus posed to Simon with his having denied Jesus three times on the night before he was crucified. “Yes, Lord, [...]
We may have noted from the story we heard last week of the first Easter morning that many of the disciples had great difficulty believing that Jesus had risen from the dead. Today, that trend continues with one whose name has become synonymous with doubting: Thomas. Perhaps our initial reaction to this tendency in Thomas [...]
Catechism Classes resume on April 7th, 8th and 9th. The Grade 2 classes will have their second Reconciliation lesson in preparation for First Confessions on Saturday, April 13th. Bake sale: Several Confirmation candidates will hold a bake sale in the elevator room, just inside the side entrance to the Church, on Sunday, April 7th after the [...]
When Mary Magdalene makes her way to the tomb on that first Easter day, she fully expects what she will find: the dead corpse of the One she has grown to love and admire, the One who had instilled hope in so many who had grown accustomed, in the hardships of their lives, to expect [...]
