SUNDAY: 5 JUNE: 10TH SUNDAY ORDINARY TIME

FROM THE PASTOR Dear Parishioners, Both Elijah and Jesus raise people from the dead but they would have to eventually die again. Jesus promises us resurrection from the dead for all eternity. In Heaven there is no more death. Let us follow Jesus as Saint Paul so beautifully converted his life to Christ. Deacon Matt Hebert has arrived, newly ordained. He will be here for the months of June and July. He is from St. Mary Magdalen Parish in Abbeville. His father is a permanent deacon. Please welcome him when you see him. Congratulations to Deacon Ben Soileau from OLQAS parish. He was ordained yesterday at the Cathedral as a permanent deacon on the Feast of the Immaculate Heart of Mary. This coming Saturday the Bishop will ordain 3 men to the priest-hood. Next weekend as well we will have a missionary appeal from one of the Spiritan Fathers. See elsewhere in the bulletin for more information about the Spiritan Fathers.

Sincerely in Christ,

Fr. Thomas Voorhies

A layman is talking to God and asks, “Hey, God, what does 100 million years seem like to you?” God answered, “One hundred million years? That’s like a

second to me.” Then the man asks, “So what’s $100 million seem like to you?” “One hundred million dollars?” says God. “It seems like a penny to me.”

So the man says, “Hey, God, could I borrow a penny?” And God replies, “Sure. Just wait a second.”

“Adopt-A-Baby” 2nd Month Update

Keep praying for me. I am 2 months old now and about 2 inches long. Look! You can see my eyes, nose, and mouth. I hope I can use these to experience God’s world after I’m born. From this moment on, your baby grows and refines his body. All of your baby’s major body organs and body systems, including the brain, lungs, liver, and stomach, have begun to develop. The first bone cells appear during this time. Eyelids form and grow but remain sealed shut. The inner ear is forming. Ankles, toes, wrists, and fingers are developing. If you do an ultrasound scan, you may see your baby wiggling and

waving! Everything he needs to survive once he is born is already present by the end of the eighth week.

Weekly Reflection from Pope Francis: “In the presence of a repentant people, God’s

justice is transformed into mercy and forgiveness. This challenges us by inviting us to make room

for this same inner attitude. To become merciful, we must first acknowledge that we have done

many things wrong: we are sinners! We need to know how to say: ‘Lord, I am ashamed of what I have done

in life’. If we act in this way, how many good things will follow. With

this attitude of repentance we will be more capable of being

merciful, because we feel God’s mercy for us.”

— Pope Francis

Mission Appeal

The weekend of June 11-12, 2016, Reverend Joseph L. Nguyen, C.S.Sp., will visit our

parish to speak at the Masses about the missionary work of the Church and in

particular that of the Congregation of the Holy Spirit “the Spiritans”, earlier known as

the Holy Ghost Fathers. To learn more about the Holy Spirit Fathers, visit their website at

www.spiritans.org.

This visit is part of a national program whereby annually a representative of one of the missionary groups visits parishes of the

Diocese to enlist support for the mission work of the Church. The Congregation of the Holy Spirit is an international community engaged in a wide range of missionary activity in many

areas of the world. Fr. Nguyen was recently appointed to serve the Spiritan missions

in Vietnam and will leave for Vietnam this summer.

When Jesus said: “You shall witness to me in Jerusalem and in Samaria and to the ends of the earth” He made

the spread of the Gospel an essential part of our Catholic

life.

We urge you to respond

generously to Father Nguyen’s

appeal.

Stewardship Prayer for June : Lord Jesus Christ, You came to bring peace and offer reconciliation. You sent your Spirit to heal the separation between people, and to reveal how it is possible for women and men to

overcome their differences and celebrate their unity through your body and blood. You revealed your Father as the Father of all people; a Father who cares for every single individual and embraces them with love and mercy. It is that love and mercy, made manifest by your cross, that shines your light on us all, creates new life, offers a new way of living, and brings a Gospel message that is a sign of hope. Give us the courage to

live your Gospel fully even when it brings risk, to share your word vibrantly even if it leads to scorn, and to respond to others generously even when we feel like holding back. Show us the way to live as good stewards

of your presence among us, and in doing so, may we shine your light on a darkened world. Amen!

Holy Hour of Eucharistic Adoration with BenedictionOnly Holy Thursday, the night that Our Lord gave us His

Body and Blood, he asked his disciples to spend one hour with him in prayer. Sacred Heart of Jesus Church has a Eucharistic Holy Hour with Exposition and Sol-

emn Benediction on the third Thursday of each month. The next Holy Hour falls on Thursday, June 23rd 5:30-

6:30pm. All are invited to attend!

Ministry for the DyingWe are members of the Secular Order of Disclaimed Carmelites. As sons & daughters of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel, it is the duty of all Secular Carmelites to pray for the salvation of souls. Because “the most important hour of life is the hour of death,” the Secular Carmelites from Ville Platte have chosen as our apostolate to pray the souls of the dying. After calling a priest, if you would like for us to pray for someone who is near death, please call: Karen at (337) 336-1775. ALL CALLS ARE CONFIDENTIAL.

Stewardship Moments….10th Sunday Ordinary Time, June 5th: Saint Paul begins today’s second reading by stating that he was “called” to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ. As baptized Catholics who have an opportunity to share in Christ’s life through the Eucharist regularly, we too are called to proclaim the teachings of Christ. We are stewards of Christ’s Gospel.

But how are we responding to that call? Do we listen for the guidance of the Holy Spirit? Do we evade, dodge or ignore the Lord’s call? Do we attempt to proclaim the

Gospel in a spirit of compassion and love? Reflect on how you exercise stewardship over the Gospel.
