Is Jesus Calling YOU?
If you are a man between the ages of 30 and 60, and love the
Lord, perhaps Jesus is calling you to become a permanent
deacon in His Church. Please answer the call. A permanent
deacon is the only ordained clergy in the Catholic Church that
can be married, if he is married at the time of ordination,
without special dispensation from the Holy See. To find out
more about the opportunities, please call our parish office at
428-4920 or Fr. Robert at 428-4920, or Deacon Carlos
Vessels at 428-4920.

THE GIFT OF PEACE
We are offered another vision in today’s second
reading, a vision of the New Jerusalem, “coming down
out of heaven from God” (Revelation 21:10). Read
between the lines describing the radiant city, and we
find that the greatest beauty revealed is the beauty of
perfect symmetry and order, a city founded on the faith
of the twelve tribes of Israel and the Twelve Apostles,
lit only by the glory of God.
The first reading and the Gospel are linked to this
idealized description of the New Jerusalem. In both we
read of distress and disturbance countered by the gift of
peace. “[M]y peace I give to you,” Jesus assures his
disciples at the Last Supper (John 14:27). In keeping
with that gift, the apostles and elders, in the reading
from Acts, decide not to disturb the peace of new
Gentile believers. The undue burden of circumcision
will not be imposed on them. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
