SAINT JAMES CATHOLIC SCHOOL PARISH LIFE

Jesus said to them again, ‘Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I send you.’ When He had said this, He breathed on them and said to them, ‘Receive the Holy Spirit. If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiv-en them; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained.’ John 20:21-23 Reflection. Come Holy Spirit, Creator of all things…You who breathed over the waters at the dawn of creation and bought forth all living beings…You who filled the Apostles when the Risen Lord breathed on them on the first Easter night, giving them the power to restore life to those dead in sin…You who, on the last day, will breathe again on all the dead and raise them from the dead---Come and breathe on our world again, immersed as it is in the Culture of Death! Come, O Lord and Giver of Life! Defeat the works of death in our midst, that abortion may no longer stain our land. We worship You, O Holy Spirit, and we rejoice in You. Make us worthy apostles of life. The World Prayer for Life Prayer. Each day the Venerable Servant of God, Archbishop Sheen, requests prayer warriors to pray the fol-lowing prayer for a child in danger of being aborted. “Jesus, Mary, Joseph, I love you very much. I beg you to spare the life of the unborn child. Ed Cecil, Respect Life Committee

STEWARDSHIP

+VOCATION VIEW+

The Lord will come when we least expect him. Is he

knocking now, asking us to serve as a priest or

religious? ( Luke 12:49-53)

The Most Holy Trinity

First Reading: Exodus 34:4b-6, 8-9

Second Reading: 2 Corinthians 13:11-13

Gospel: John 3:16-18

"There are different kinds of spiritual gifts but the same

Spirit; there are different forms of service but the same

Lord; there are different works but the same God who

produces all of them in everyone. To each individual the

manifestation of the Spirit is given for some benefit."

1 Corinthians 12:4-7

Each of us has been given unique talents to share with

others. Time and treasure are similar for everyone -- they

only differ in amounts. The gifts of our talents are the most

personal aspect of our stewardship.

Pentecost Sunday

First Reading: Acts 2:1-11

Second Reading: 1 Corinthians 12:3b-7, 12-13

Gospel: John 20:19-23

The feast of Pentecost reminds us that the work of

the Holy Spirit guides and protects the Church

and enables her to carry out her mission. The gift

of the Holy Spirit gives us, as disciples, the grace

and strength to move forward and live out our

call of faith.

PARISH DISCERNMENT

Thank you to all parishioners who attended a listen-

ing session throughout the past month. Your feedback

and interest in the process has been so encouraging as

we have discerned where God is calling us to go.

This month, the Parish Pastoral Council will meet with

the consultant assisting with this process to review and

to consolidate all that surfaced during the listening

sessions. From this meeting a summary will be devel-

oped along with short-term and long-term goals. The

summary and goals will be shared with the entire parish

community so that we can all have an opportunity to see

what surfaced during the listening sessions and begin to

consider how we can assist with goals moving forward.

SPECIAL COLLECTION— CRUSADE FOR CHILDREN

Since 1955, the Archdiocese of Louisville has contribut-ed more than $7 million dollars to the Crusade for Chil-dren. This community-wide effort changes the lives of children with special needs. Many families in the Arch-diocese have benefited directly from the Crusade as have our schools, which have received grants to assist students with diverse learning needs. This weekend our parish will be collecting donations for the Crusade. Those who wish to donate may bring contributions to Mass or to the parish office. If giving by check, please make your check payable to the parish and put the word “Crusade” in the memo line. Thank you for your generosity.
