5/28/23 - Pentecost Sunday - Cycle A

Dear Families,

This Sunday, Easter ends with the celebration of the Feast of Pentecost.  Pentecost is when the Holy Spirit came to the disciples and the story of Pentecost is in today’s first reading in the Acts of the Apostles.  The Holy Spirit was given to the Apostles to guide, teach and be with them when Jesus was gone.  In the Gospel of John, Jesus greets his disciples with the gift of peace.  He tells them “As the Father has sent me, so I send you” and he breathed on them and said, “Receive the Holy Spirit.”  Jesus gave the apostles the ability to forgive sins and bring peace to the world.

 

Jesus gave the disciples the gift of the Holy Spirit to help them spread his message of love, peace and forgiveness.  This same Holy Spirit is still with us today.  With the Holy Spirit let us bring peace to our home, family, friends, and the world.

 

As a family watch video in its entirety and then ask each other this question.
How does the Holy Spirit work in our family to bring us the gift of forgiveness, peace and love?

 

Family Prayer:  Holy Spirit, help our family receive your gift of peace, so that with your love and forgiveness we are present in your name to each other.  Amen.

May 28, 2023- Pentecost Sunday

Dear Sisters and Brothers,

   Jesus promised the gift of the Holy Spirit to his disciples and St. John describes in the Gospel how: "he breathed on them and said to them, receive the Holy Spirit. Whose sins you forgive are forgiven them, and whose sins you retain are retained" (John: 20:22-23). Jesus gives the Apostles the authority of his mercy. To be able to forgive sins is a great authority shared by Jesus himself. It’s a great advantage to humanity to have the assurance of forgiveness administered by the apostles in the sacrament of confession and in the sacrament of the sick. It is the administration of God’s peace to those who believe in Christ. These are sacraments of healing and restoration, peace and reconciliation. It is a big deal to have this opportunity in our lives to put to rest our conscience.

 This capacity to purify our hearts, is a good step towards finding peace for oneself and peace for the world. Isn't that what we want? For this our world needs Christ. Jesus said to Thomas: "I am the truth, and the way and the life, no one comes to the Father except through me" (John: 14:6). Jesus gives his life as a proof of his words and only in him we find salvation. But in the world of today, there is great rejection of God and of evangelical values. Without reverence for God, we can't build an order on earth. It will be like building a Tower of Babel, it confuses and divides people, because the wrong or evil goal can't unite people in peace and harmony, only the truth can.

5/28/23 -  DOMINGO DE PENTECOSTES

Queridas Hermanas y Hermanos,

   Jesus prometio el don del Espiritu Santo a sus discípulos y San Juan describe en el Evangelio como: “soplo sobre ellos y le dijo: Recibid el Espiritu Santo. A Quienes perdonéis los pecados les serán personados, y a quienes se los retengais les serán retenido”. Jesus da a los Apostoles la autoridad de su misericordia. Poder perdonar los pecados es una gran autoridad compartida por el mismo Jesus. Es una gran ventaja para la humanidad tener la seguridad del perdón administrada por los apóstoles en el sacramento de la confesión y en el sacramento de los enfermos. Es la administración de la paz de Dios a todos los que creen en Cristo. Estos son sacramentos de sanación y restauración, paz y reconciliación. Es un gran problema tener esta oportunidad en nuestras vidas para tranquilizar nuestra conciencia.

     Esta capacidad de purificar nuestros corazones, es un buen paso para encontrar la paz para uno mismo y la paz para el mundo. ¿No es eso lo que queremos? Para esto nuestro mundo necesita a Cristo. Jesús le dijo a Tomás: "Yo soy la verdad, el camino y la vida, nadie viene al Padre sino por mí". de la paz de Dios a todos los que creen en Cristo.

Background Screening Update

The Office for the Protection of Children and Young People:

The Charter for the Protection of Children and Young People (The Charter) promulgated by the Bishops of the United States in 2002 outlines specific practices and guidelines providing standards of safety in parishes and dioceses throughout the United States. As directed in The Charter, the Diocese of Rockville Centre requires all employees, clergy, and volunteers to complete three requirements within thirty days of employment or volunteering:

  1. Attend Protecting God’s Children Program (Virtus)
  2. Sign the Codes of Conduct;
  3. Complete a background screen application. The Diocese requires all those who remain in active ministry be rescreened at 5 yr. intervals. volunteers/employees.

 

The 'Equality Act' discriminates against people of faith and threatens unborn life.

Tell Congress you oppose it!
 
Everyone deserves to be treated with respect and dignity. The so-called Equality Act, which is being voted on in the U.S. House of Representatives soon, in many ways does the opposite and needs to be opposed. Instead of respecting differences in beliefs about marriage and sexuality, the Equality Act would discriminate against people of faith. 
 
The Equality Act would: punish faith-based organizations, such as charities and schools who serve everyone in their communities, simply because of their beliefs; force girls and women to compete against boys and men for limited opportunities in sports, and to share locker rooms and shower spaces with biological males who identify as women; risk mandating taxpayers to fund abortions; force people in everyday life, and especially health care workers, to support gender transition; and expand what the government considers a “public” place, forcing even some parish halls to host functions that conflict with Catholic beliefs.
