Letter from Our Pastor
FEAST OF PENTECOST 2013 FOR CHRIST FOREVER
VISITATIONS
My Campaign Pilgrimage was to Saint Mary’s Church in Fullerton. I was an Assistant Pastor here when the Diocese of Orange was established on Tuesday, March 30, 1976. Last year marked the 100th Anniversary of the founding of Saint Mary’s. The letter I sent for the occasion addresses the fond sentiments I carry within as I sit in this place.
St Mary Centenary 2012 Congratulations to the Parishioners of St. Mary I was playing John Denver songs as I drove a Toyota pickup from Temple City to Fullerton in July 1975. When I drove in front of the school, I was greeted by Sister Kathleen Marie who was the Principal of the school. I was looking forward to work-ing with Jack Siebert and following in the footsteps of my second cousin James Au-gustine O ‘Gorman who was also a pastor at St. Mary’s. In my assignment as Assistant Pastor to Fullerton, I was inspired by Father Siebert. He had a reputation for being hospitable, supportive and loyal. He was very proud of being a part of what he affectionately termed as “The Regiment”. Jack was a part of a group of priests who were ordained for the Diocese of Springfield in Massachu-setts. This notable group of priests distinguished themselves at all levels of church life in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles and later in the Diocese of Orange. They at-tended the Seminary of Saint Mary on Paca Street in Baltimore, the oldest seminary in the United States. Father Jack Hill also lived on the second floor of the rectory. He was blessed with the power of self expression and had a reputation for being strict. Children under-stood him with ease. As he left Mass one Sunday he noticed a sad expression on the face of a young girl. When he inquired the cause of her sorrow she responded that they had not sung her favorite hymn. He sat beside her and sang the omitted piece without the notes. Saturday evening dinners were comprised of robust helpings of prime rib carved by Father Siebert it was accompanied with German Riesling and followed by apple pie with vanilla ice cream. The entertainment was provided by Lawrence Welk. Follow-ing the dinner I sometimes walked over to the baseball diamond. I served at Saint Mary until 1978. When I look for an expression to describe the ex-perience, I can say that I was honored to be among you. Father Eamon O Gorman

PENTECOST Pentecost is the great festival that marks the birth of the Christian church by the power of the Holy Spir-it. Pentecost means "fiftieth day" and is celebrated fifty days after Easter. Red is the liturgical color for this day. Red recalls the tongues of flame in which the Holy Spirit descended on the first Pentecost. The color red also reminds us of the blood of the martyrs. These are the believers of every generation who by the power of the Holy Spirit hold firm to the true faith even at the cost of their lives.

Pentecost Sunday is the last day that our Neophyte, Glory Curtis, and our newly initiated, Michelle Culli-nan and Natasha Spadea-Anello will be in the RCIA process. They have faithfully attended mass and the catechesis afterward for many months. They have received the sacraments at the Easter Vigil and been present during the last period called Mystagogy. Here, they learned to live into the sacraments received and to connect with the congregation in a substantial way. Their faith journey has not ended with the concluding of the formal process of RCIA, but is just begin-ning for these newly initiated Catholics. They are looking forward to continuing their connection, here, at St. Catherine’s and are excited to discover the ministry Jesus is calling them to enter. We ask for your continued prayers for them as they begin a new path on their spiritual journey. Blessings, Donna Beam, RCIA Director

Second Grade First Holy Communion Written By: Isabella Freeman - Fifth Grade Student
As we all know, our First Holy Communion is very special and it just so happens that I was at one on May 4, 2013. The second graders at Saint Catherine’s were receiving the Body and Blood of Christ for the very first time. They all looked nervous and excited at the same time. I was an observer and older sister to one of the second graders, Father O’Gorman was smiling from the altar and the boys and girls looked so stylish decked out in their outfits. Their Communion banners that they had made looked beautiful. Oh, and of course, Mrs. Dube, their teacher was very proud of her class. The Mass went beautifully and we all had a good time outside during the reception. The First grade moms put together refreshments. After the kids had their snacks, I thought it would be fun to interview a few of them. Here are some Q and A’s How do you feel about your First Holy Communion? Tessa - excited, Katie - excited and nervous, Will and Ethan - great, Camden - awesome How do you feel now that you can have Communion with the rest of your school and parish? Tessa - happy, Katie - pretty fun, Will - fun, Ethan - great I feel so blessed being able to have viewed and participated in this wonderful event by altar servings. This event is very special and emotional. I really hope I get to witness this remarkable event again. I hope this article reaches into your heart and reminds you about your First Holy Communion.

Domingo de Pentecostés 19 de mayo de 2013
Hemos sido bautizados en un mismo Espíritu para formar un solo cuerpo.
— 1 Corintios 12:13a
Fiesta de Pentecostés 2013 PARA CRISTO SIEMPRE VISITAS Mi peregrinación Campaña fue a la Iglesia de Santa María, en Fullerton. Yo era un pastor asistente aquí cuan-do se creó la Diócesis de Orange el martes 30 de marzo de 1976. El año pasado marcó el 100 aniversario de la fundación de Santa María. La carta que envió para la ocasión aborda los sentimientos gratos que llevo dentro como me siento en este lugar. Santa María del Centenario 2012 Felicitaciones a los feligreses de Santa María Estaba jugando John Denver canciones mientras conducía una camioneta Toyota de Temple City a Fullerton en julio de 1975. Cuando me dirigí al frente de la escuela, fui recibido por la Hermana Kathleen Marie, que era el director de la escuela. Tenía muchas ganas de trabajar con Jack Siebert y siguiendo los pasos de mi primo segundo James Agustín O 'Gorman, que también era un pastor en St. Mary. En mi trabajo como Asistente de Pastor de Fullerton, fui inspirado por el padre Siebert. Tenía la reputación de ser hospitalario, solidario y leal. Estaba muy orgulloso de ser parte de lo que él denomina cariñosamente como "The Regiment". Jack era parte de un grupo de sacerdotes que fueron ordenados para la Diócesis de Spring-field en Massachusetts. Este notable grupo de sacerdotes se distinguieron en todos los niveles de la vida eclesial en la Arquidiócesis de Los Ángeles y más tarde en la Diócesis de Orange. Asistieron al Seminario de Santa María de Paca Street en Baltimore, el seminario más antiguo de los Estados Unidos. Padre Jack Hill también vivía en el segundo piso de la casa parroquial. Él fue bendecido con el poder de la li-bre expresión y tenía una reputación de ser estricto. Los niños lo entienden con facilidad. Al salir de misa un domingo notó una expresión triste en el rostro de una niña. Cuando se le preguntó la causa de su dolor que ella respondió que no habían cantado su himno favorito. Se sentó a su lado y cantó la pieza negar sin las no-tas. Cenas de sábado por la noche se compone de porciones sólidas de costilla tallado por el padre Siebert fue acompañada con el alemán Riesling y seguido de pastel de manzana con helado de vainilla. El entretenimien-to fue proporcionado por Lawrence Welk. Después de la cena, a veces, me acerqué a el diamante de béisbol. Serví en Santa María hasta 1978. Cuando busco una expresión para describir la experiencia, puedo decir que tuve el honor de estar entre ustedes. Padre Eamon O Gorman
