Dear Sisters and Brothers, Most Holy Trinity. Happy Fathers’ Day!!! On this day of the Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity, we also celebrate and ac-knowledge all fathers and wish them a blessed and happy day. To celebrate the mystery of the Trinity is to celebrate the bond of love of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. So to all fathers who have loved and sacrificed and continue to do same for their children and grandchildren, etc, we say thank you.
We all know that, as of now, Fathers’ Day celebration still has some catching up to do compared to that of mothers. And who knows, it probably will never match it, and some might say for good reasons! Of course, that is not in anyway to dis-count the role of fathers in the lives of their children. One way to think of it might be this: just as men and women are different in a variety of ways, so also marking mothers’ and fathers’ days will be, I think. Once again, happy fathers’ day to all fathers. May we always show love to our fathers and father-figures in our lives.
Summer is Here!!!
I know the calendar does not say it yet, but unofficially summer is here, and has been for sometime now. Folks often ask me about plans for the summer – vaca-tion may be? Well, no! Some folks have to stay back during the summer and keep things running. So, as you go and come during the summer months, have fun and be safe.
But as you go, remember, don’t go alone. Go with God, spend time with the Trinity. The universality of our catholic faith means that, a place for mass or any other sacrament is easily located on your ubiquitous smart phone. And you will never be a stranger in any catholic church, even if the celebration is in a language you do not understand. As a visitor, you will get a warm welcome.
Finally, during the summer months, JEA for whatever reasons continues to send utility bills. YIKES!!! I wish they would stop, but no luck yet. As always, thank you for your unrelenting stewardship in more ways than one to our parishes.
Have a blessed week everyone!
Fr. Bernardine

DID YOU KNOW OUR FAITH? Trinity Sunday celebrates a central dogma of the faith: that there is one God with three distinct persons. Each of the three persons is distinctly divine. ‘It is the Fa-ther who generates, the Son who is begotten, and the Holy Spirit who proceeds.’ Lateran Council IV: DS 804 as quoted in CCC # 253-254.
JUNETEENTH HISTORY FACTS • Juneteenth also known as Freedom Day and Emancipation Day, is a holiday or observance in many US states to celebrate the anniversary of the abolition of slavery in Texas on June 19, 1865, which freed the last 250,000 slaves in Galveston Texas.
• The word “Juneteenth” resulted from the words “June Nine-teenth” being slurred together in speech.
• Juneteenth is the oldest celebration that commemorates the end of slavery in the United States.
• In Texas and some other southern states, the traditional drink on Juneteenth is Big Red soda.
• There is a Juneteenth Flag of Freedom. It is half red and half blue with a star in the middle.

STEWARDSHIP AWARENESS SUNDAY “But when he comes, the Spirit of truth, he will guide you to all
truth...” (John 16:13)
Jesus sent the Holy Spirit to help us know and live the truth. To prepare ourselves, we need to open our hearts to receive this gift before we can give it. Develop a daily prayer routine. Talk and listen to the Holy Spirit. This is best done in silence, when we can hear His response.
WORD OF LIFE “Each [IUI and IVF] procedure involved living human beings— individuals with unique DNA, who deserve to be treated with the dignity of human persons. They should no more be frozen or disposed of like laboratory waste than the rest of us. They bear—as all human beings do—the image and likeness of God, the Father of all.” USCCB Secretariat of Pro-Life Activities “Life Matters: Reproductive Technology”
THANK YOU Thank you to Mitzi Ellis, Carolyn Glover and Eileen Scott members of the St. Bernadette Council, for provid-
ing the lovely floral arrangements on the Altar for June.
MAY HE REST IN PEACE Our deepest sympathy and prayers go out to parishioner Benita Powell and family on the loss of their beloved father, brother, son, king, parishioner Benjamin Powell Sr. Whom was laid to rest Saturday, June 15th, here at St. Pius V. May our loving Lord welcome him home and grant unto him eternal rest.
