A Note from our PastorFather Mark Arnzen
This weekend of May we celebrate Mother's Day. Many of us will visit, call and celebrate withour moms and others will pray heavenly blessings for their mother's who have gone before us. It is always a moment to reflect and rejoice in the blessings of God's love shown through thelove of our mothers.My mom was widowed at a fairly young age. I was already out of the house along with many ofmy brothers and sisters (there are nine of us) but she still had several of us at home and inschool. During my junior year of college I was studying at the University of Constance inGermany (West Germany at the time) and my mom came to visit for several weeks during the winter break. Thismoment of time was when I really got to know my mom well and she was able to know her grown son a littlebetter...Read full Pastoral notes Notas pastorales completas
Sunday Reading Preview:May 13, 2018The Ascension of the Lord
Gospel MK 16:15-20Jesus said to his disciples:"Go into the whole worldand proclaim the gospel to every creature.Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved;whoever does not believe will be condemned.These signs will accompany those who believe:in my name they will drive out demons,they will speak new languages.They will pick up serpents with their hands,and if they drink any deadly thing, it will not harm them.They will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover."
So then the Lord Jesus, after he spoke to them,was taken up into heavenand took his seat at the right hand of God.But they went forth and preached everywhere,while the Lord worked with themand confirmed the word through accompanying signs.

An update from Andrew BrownOur Pastoral Associate
Over the next few Sunday's wecelebrate some really importantLiturgical feasts.
This weekend is known asAscension Sunday. Yes, it's alsoknown as Mother's Day, but pay heedto the Gospel reading. It's the lasttime Jesus gives us earthly commands before he ascends intoHeaven. Next Sunday we celebrate Pentecost Sunday. This is a renewedJewish holiday where we celebrate the reception of the Holy Spiritupon the Apostles in the Upper Room. We will also have 70+ teensreceive Confirmation that weekend with Bishop Sevilla. The following Sunday is known as Trinity Sunday.This weekend weemphasize the mysterious and divine nature of God as a communionof persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Yet in the midst of themystery we have God's revelation as love embodied through his fullyhuman son, Jesus. Then we have Corpus Christi Sunday, aka "Body and Blood ofChrist" Sunday. This weekend we place special emphasis on theinstitution of the Eucharist where we believe that Jesus is really, trulypresent in the Blessed Sacrament Communion hosts. This teaching,given to us by Jesus, distinguishes Catholics from all other Christiantraditions. Jesus just keeps showing up! He loves us all that much. Be sure to visit www.formed.org and use the parish code9FH34Z to learn more about these radical teachings andcelebrations.
