THE DAY OF THE HOLY SPIRIT

John’s Gospel tells us that when Jesus “breathed” on the disciples, the Holy Spirit came into them, empowering them to forgive sins and to gather all people into union with one another. The book of Genesis had explained the divisions among nations with the story of the Tower of Babel. In rebellious pride, human beings had struggled to become equal to God. The result was chaos, strife, the inability even to speak the same language among themselves. Today’s reading from Acts tells how the Spirit has just the opposite effect. Strangers from many nations hear and understand one another, each in his or her own tongue. This message of unity in the Spirit is repeated in the reading from Corinthians. There are many gifts, many ways to serve. One way is not “higher,” nor one person “better” than another. There is but one Spirit, who accomplishes all the different works we do, acting through us.

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION

Today we are at the fiftieth day of the Easter celebration: seven weeks of seven days, a week of weeks, now culminating in a festival fiftieth day. While the liturgical color of the Easter season is gold, on this last day we have red. For the first thousand years of the church, there were no firm rules for using colors. Only wealthy churches could afford a full array of colors, and most places used the best vestments, no matter the color, for the greatest feasts. The Church spelled out an exact plan for color, including red for Pentecost, only in 1570, but local differences held on until the 1800s. Color experts tell us that red is a hot color, best used for fast-paced, upbeat, active experiences. It is hard to be neutral before red, as any matador will tell you. It invites commitment, draws you in. It is a stimulating color, engaging the eye, stirring hunger. It is the most fitting color for this day when we celebrate the descent of the Holy Spirit into our lives, a dynamic presence overturning neutrality in favor of passion and commitment. —James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

EL DÍA DEL ESPÍRITU SANTO

El Evangelio de Juan nos dice que cuando Jesús “sopló” sobre los discípulos, el Espíritu Santo descendió sobre ellos dándoles poder de perdonar los pecados y de reunir a todos los pueblos. El Génesis explica la división entre las naciones con la historia de la torre de Babel. En orgullosa rebelión, los seres humanos luchaban por ser iguales a Dios. El resultado fue caos, sufrimiento y la inhabilidad hasta de hablar el mismo idioma entre ellos. La lectura de hoy de los Hechos nos dice que el Espíritu tiene justamente el efecto contrario. Extranjeros de muchas naciones oyen y se entienden entre ellos, cada uno en su propia lengua. Este mensaje de unidad en el Espíritu se repite en la lectura de Corintios. Hay diferentes dones espirituales, muchos modos de servir. Un modo no es “superior,” ni una persona es “mejor” que otra. Hay un solo Espíritu que obra todo en todos. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE

Hoy celebramos la Pascua de Pentecostés. Esta es una de las tres Pascuas que celebramos los cristianos. Las otras dos son la Pascua de Resurrección (o Pascua Florida) y la Pascua del Nacimiento de Jesús. Estas tres solemnidades cristianas celebran tres momentos claves en el plan de salvación: la Encarnación del Verbo Divino (Jesús), su Pasión, Muerte y Resurrección y el descenso de su Espíritu Santo sobre la Iglesia. Pascua viene siendo el nombre de la principal solemnidad del calendario Judío y recuerda la liberación del pueblo de Israel de la esclavitud. Los cristianos hemos tomado ese nombre por reconocernos como descendientes de Abraham y porque en nuestras tres pascuas celebramos que Jesús viene a salvarnos, o sea, a liberarnos del pecado y sus consecuencias tanto personales como sociales. En muchas partes el titulo de Pascua se ha dejado para hablar de la Fiesta de la Navidad y la Fiesta de Pentecostés. Esto es una lástima ya que el recordar la Pascua debe impulsar al cristiano a obrar por la liberación de todos para que el mundo se salve por Jesucristo. —Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM, Copyright © J.

DO YOU WANT TO READ THE BIBLE, BUT DON’T KNOW HOW TO BEGIN? - If you have ever wanted to read the Bible, but did not know where or how to begin, then The Bible Timeline Parish Study is for you. The Bible Timeline makes reading the Bible not only easy, but exciting. In this study, you will learn the major people, places, events and themes of the Bible—getting the “big picture” of salvation history. Perhaps for the first time in your life, you will understand the overview of the Bible story. This then makes your Bible reading and even the Sun-day Mass readings come alive like never before. The Bible Timeline will be offered at Madonna del Sasso Parish in the Student Activity Center every Thursday. Beginning at 6:30 pm, there will be a study/

workbook session. The video will begin at 7:00 pm and from 8:00 to 8:30 pm there will be a short pres-entation and an opportunity for questions. This series will be pre-sented by Fr. Greg Sandman, Fr. Joey Buena and Fr. Joshua Clifton. To learn more, visit www.mdschurch.org or call the Madonna del Sasso Parish office at 422-5323.

CREATING HOPE—Sandra is struggling to get by on her low paying job – she has three small children and the oldest, Peter, has developed serious childhood asthma. He panics when he can’t breathe and she has to be sure he always has his inhaler with him. His medications are expensive and he has lost his inhaler at school twice. Sandra had to leave work and go back to the pharmacy for new ones. The two little boys are twins and started school this year. She recently received notice that her utilities would be shut off and she is afraid her boss will let her go if she misses any more work to meet with the utility company. She is always afraid she will run out of money for food and rent. If only she could get a little financial help the stress would be less in her life.

A Catholic Charities resource specialist listened carefully to her story and assisted with the utility bills. They also helped Sandra create a new family budget and qualify for CalFresh to buy nutritious food for her family to ease her financial anxiety.

Catholic Charities of the Diocese of Monterey serves 20,000 individuals and families every year and, with your support, could give direct assistance to more families like Sandra’s. Please remember the Catholic Charities Annual Appeal this weekend.

CREANDO ESPERANZA— Sandra tiene dificultades cubriendo sus gastos con el trabajo que tiene – ella tiene tres niños

pequeños, y Pedro el mayor, ha desarrollado un caso severo de asma. El entra en pánico cuando no puede respi-rar y Sandra tiene que asegurarse que él tenga su inhalador consigo todo el tiempo. Sus medicinas son costosas y Pedro ha perdido su inhalador dos veces en la escuela. Sandra ha tenido que salir de su trabajo para ir a comprar otros. Los otros dos niños menores son gemelos y comenzaron la escuela este año. Recientemente, Sandra recibió una noticia de corte para sus utilidades y ella tiene miedo que la van despedir si pierde más horas de trabajo para ir a la

oficina de la compañía de utilidades. Ella siempre tiene miedo que el dinero no le va a alcanzar para la comida y su renta. Si tan sólo ella pudiera tener un poco de ayuda monetaria para aliviar el estrés.

Una especialista de Recursos para Familias de Caridades Católicas se sentó con Sandra y escuchó detalladamente su historia y le ayudó a pagar su recibo de utilidades. Ella también le ayudó a llenar una aplicación de CalFresh para que pudiera comprar comida saludable y a crear un nuevo presupuesto familiar, lo cual le ha ayudado a Sandra a disminuir su ansiedad por el dinero.

Caridades Católicas de la Diócesis de Monterey asiste a 20,000 individuos y familias cada año y con su apoyo, nosotros podemos ayudar a más familias como la Sandra. Por favor recuerde a Caridades Católicas durante la Campaña Anual este fin de semana.

Faith Formation...

Reflecting on God’s Word In the Middle Ages, when science seemed to be stepsister to the arts, people thought that phlogiston was what made something burnable. The more phlogiston, the more readily flammable was the way they understood physics’ inner workings. It explained why rocks did not burn and why straw readily did. Though phlogiston has long been shelved, its theory is not so far removed from how the Spirit of God burns in our lives, nor is it far from the gifts that God’s Spirit sets aflame in us. If some effort of ours glows with light and heat, it may be a sign of much Spirit, sort of like phlogiston. On the other hand, if in our effort to shine there’s not even a spark, it’s quite likely that that is not where the Spirit has settled into us. It might be better to pay attention then to some other aspect of life. The struggle is to make sure that our imagined passion and where the Spirit of God wants us to be are one and the same so that the former does not cause us to stray from the latter. How does anyone know if they are where they should be? St. Paul says that the Spirit gives each of us our own dose of divine gifted-ness, our own spark with which to shine, but it’s not given to us for our own glory or fun or feel-good self-image but for the good of others, for the com-munity, for building up life. John’s Gospel suggests one other such test—whether or not we’re at peace. That, too, is the Spirit’s gift. —Rev. Joseph J. Juknialis Copyright © 2012,

THANK YOU – 2013 AMA (ANNUAL MINISTRIES APPEAL) DONORS! We can do a lot when we work together. We can do a lot when we put our hands, our minds, and our hearts together. We can do a lot as a parish and as a diocese when we put our resources together to support programs that benefit us all. Our on-going practice of Stewardship is a wonderful thanksgiving to God’s many blessings. The AMA funds go toward such worthwhile programs in our diocese as Catholic Schools, Hispanic Ministries, Respect Life, training of seminarians, and numerous other vital ministries. “For where your treasure is, there also will your heart be,” was the theme Bishop Garcia chose for this year’s appeal. And as in the past, our good-hearted community has always sup-ported the Bishop’s campaign with great generosity --- over $50,875.08 was pledged in the 2013 appeal! Our diocesan goal was $40,300. All monies received over our responsibility to the diocese are returned to the parish. Sacred Heart is blessed to have parishioners who prayerfully give to this mission.

We apologize if there are any omissions to this list. Please contact Arlala in the parish office (424-1959 or scrhrtchurch@sbcglobal.net) and we’ll make a correction in the next bulletin.

Trabajando juntos podemos hacer mucho. Podemos hacer mucho cuando ponemos nuestras manos, mentes y nuestros corazones juntos. Podemos hacer mucho como Parroquia y como Diócesis, cuando unimos nuestros recursos para apoyar programas que nos benefician a todos. Nuestra práctica de corresponsabilidad es una forma maravillosa de dar gracias a Dios por tantas bendiciones. Los fondos de AMA van hacia programas que valen la pena en nuestra Diócesis, como Escuelas Católicas, Ministerios Hispanos, Respeto a la Vida, entrenamientos de seminaristas y otros numerosos ministerios vitales. “Pues donde están tus riquezas, ahí también estará tu corazón,” es el tema que escogió el Obispo García para este año de apelación. En el pasado nuestra comunidad de buen Corazón siempre ha apoyado la campaña del Obispo con una gran generosidad. Mas de $51,125.08 fueron prometidos en la campaña del 2013! Nuestro objetivo diocesano fue de $40,300. Todos el dinero recibido por la Diócesis en exceso a nuestro objetivo serán reembolsados a la parroquia. El Sagrado Corazón es bendecido por tener feligreses quienes llenos de oración donan a esta misión.

SACRED HEART INTENTION CALENDAR—The Sacred Heart calendar has room to make your special intentions for June & July Masses. Please contact the Parish office for more info

As the weather gets warmer and our guests need fewer blankets, I have to pause to thank God that we've survived another winter, and that's because of your generosity! Thank you for a wonderful holiday season and for supporting us as we gain in capacity to serve the poor here at Dorothy's Place. Today I see one of our House of Peace residents happily tending her many neighborhood cats, a far cry from how I knew her five years ago, strung out on cocaine and heroin. I see two more residents working so hard to clean up the street-scape in preparation for the Asian Festival this weekend. But I also see one of our very troubled Women Alive guests, slumped over on the curb, unable to move and with no friends to help her. I paused to bring out a bench for her to sit on and a cup of hot chocolate, but it's not enough. I write today to ask you once again to support the poor and homeless through Dorothy's Place. Springtime brings good weather and less desperation, but it's also the time of year that we run low on dollars - waiting for our grant funding to kick in. We're running very lean right now and would sure appreciate it if you could send some dollars our way. We promise to spend it wisely, knowing that we are simply stewards of your intentions to serve the most disenfranchised people in our community. We're happy to receive your check, or if you prefer to donate online with a credit card (or PayPal), please go to http://dorothysplace.org/donate. For more info, please contact Jill at (831) 578-4198.
