It could be another person at the same table. Many youth answer with smiley faces and no text. There is a growing disconnectedness among peoples. This disconnectedness not only reduces our closest relationships by inserting distance into families and friends. It also disconnects us from ourselves. We were not made just for our self. There is something much, much deeper, that if not addressed leads us to disaster. You and I learned that each human being is made in the image and likeness of God. In our deepest inner self, we are like God — a communion of persons — Three who is One or One who are Three. We celebrate today Trinity Sunday, the liturgical celebration calling our minds and hearts to worship God’s very nature in himself. In some way, our very human nature mirrors God. We are not made for disconnectedness. We can logically conclude that God exists. St. Thomas Aquinas, et al., demonstrated this. What we cannot do is deduce the Trinity from logic. This knowledge can only come from revelation and the Holy Spirit. Over and over Jesus alludes to the Trinity — The Father and I are One (Jn. 10:30) – Baptize in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit (Mt. 28:19) - "The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with all of you,” (2 Cor. 13:14). You can find many more examples at http://catholic-resources.org/Bible/Trinity.htm . Being made in the image and likeness of God has had profound effects on how we live. In our founding documents we state our belief that “All men are created equal” because of our common creator. It would be disastrous if we removed this core belief about the human person. One need not be a prophet to picture the harm were we to go back to a caste system. We must never think we are better because we have a certain color, accent, or religion. We are all in the image and likeness of God. As we celebrate this wonderful mystery of the nature of God, we can rejoice in the creativity of our Father who created such variety in our world, in the Son who delivered us from sin and the Holy Spirit who guides us to a more ordered life of morality. May the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit enlighten your soul, heart and mind so you see yourself as a son or daughter made in His image and that this truth will lead you to a deeper gratitude for who you are, the sum of the Father’s love for you and the real capacity to be the living image of his Son to a darkened world in desperate need of true Love. Pax et bonum, Msgr. Bill Mass Intentions for the Week TODAY'S READINGS First Reading -- Before anything was created, the wisdom of God was brought forth (Proverbs 8:22-31). Psalm -- O Lord, our God, how wonderful your name in all the earth! (Psalm 8). Second Reading -- God's love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit that has been given to us (Romans 5:1-5). Gospel -- Everything that the Father has is mine; the Spirit will take from what is mine and declare it to you (John 16:12-15).

Lea Darrow, former runway model and reality show contestant starts her lively and humorous presentation by discussing the definition of love with her youthful audience. Terms are important, she insists. If we define love as hanging around abusive, exploitive, here-today-gone-tomorrow people, then that’s the kind of love that will find us. After a shattering prom night, Lea started looking for the kind of love the culture offered. Her life stumbled, then tumbled further and further down and away from any solid ground or self-dignity. Her moral compass, she wryly notes, was not pointing north. Christ spoke to her before she hit rock bottom, and she returned to the sacrament of reconciliation for only the second time in her life. There, she offered back to God ten years of pain. God loves us too much, she realizes, to compromise on our happiness, to change His term for love from something true to something cheap and transitory. As members of St. Vincent de Paul's Young Adults (SVDPYA), we strive to live out our Catholic faith in both word and deed. We achieve this goal through our service, spiritual formation, and social events in support of one another, our community, and the Church as a whole. Together, we take up the call of bringing Christ into the world! SVDPYA is centered around a 6:30 pm praise and worship, 7pm Mass, and dinner every Tuesday evening (except for the 1st Tuesday of the month), along with an array of social and spiritual events. Come join us at one of our upcoming events, or find our group on Facebook by searching "SVDPYA" or email [email protected] to get involved. Sunday, May 22, 2016 Bible Study will take place in Room 206A at 3:45 - 4:45 pm before the 5 pm mass.

Please join us in the Monsignor Jamail Family Life Center for a pizza dinner following the procession. Corpus Christi is Latin for “Body of Christ” and is the Sunday feast day celebrated every year following Trinity Sunday. The feast began in the 13th century by Pope Urban IV in a time when heresies challenged, and many of the faithful doubted, the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist. This feast invites us to worship Christ in the Eucharist and to remember the gift of His Presence. The feast has been traditionally celebrated throughout the world with a Eucharistic procession, in which the faithful walk with Christ through the streets. 7 8 Next Coffee & Donuts in the Family Center Parish Information Following: 7 & 9 a.m. and 3pm Masses Sunday, June 5, 2016 Hosted by: Compassion Ministry Sacrament of Baptism: Children, age 6 or younger requirements: parents registered parishioners, attended baptism class within 3 years and completed forms before baptism can be scheduled.

Por medio de este misterio, experimentamos nuestra relación con Dios: Creador, Salvador y Santificador. Esta relación no es fácil de entender o describir. No se hace más clara por el análisis. Su complejidad refleja la complejidad de todas nuestras relaciones. Entendemos nuestras relaciones con nuestra esposa, nuestros hijos, nuestros padres y nuestros amigos solamente en el día a día, ritos anuales y esos momentos que cambian la vida que compartimos. Entendemos nuestras relaciones al vivir con ellas. Las relaciones que tenemos con los que amamos y con quienes nos aman, nos sustentan por medio de una vida incierta y difícil. Esta es la Santísima Trinidad. RESPUESTAS INCOMPLETAS La lectura del hoy de libro de los Proverbios describe la fuerza del principio, cuando lo que es más hermoso y central en nuestra relación con Dios es una esperanza en nuestras mentes y en la mente de Dios. Cuando no había nada sino solo nuestra relación, todavía había suficiente poder para generar un mundo entero, un cielo y una tierra. El salmo que cantamos hoy nos dice acerca del poder de la posibilidad y responsabilidad. Somos responsables de salvaguardar lo que ha sido creado por medio de nuestra relación. La carta a los romanos nos recuerda que no estamos solos en esta relación. Soportamos lo que nos parece insoportable a causa de la esperanza y la gracia que son parte de nuestra relación con nuestro Salvador y con el Espíritu Santo. Finalmente, Juan enfatiza que ni siquiera la misma muerte terminará nuestra relación con aquel al que amamos y que nos ama. Nuestra relación con Dios, Creador, Salvador y Santificador, es uno en el cual todo es posible, todo se da, y todo se vive plenamente. Esta es la Santísima Trinidad.

Año Jubilar de la Misericordia.. 22 de mayo de 2016 En la Bula papal Misericordiae Vultus, 2, el Papa Francisco dice que la misericordia "es la palabra que revela el misterio de la Santísima Trinidad". Pues la misericordia es cómo Dios viene a nuestro encuentro; misericordia es la ley fundamental que nos ayuda a reconocernos como hermanos y hermanas; misericordia es el puente que conecta a Dios con la humanidad, abriendo nuestros corazones a la esperanza de ser amados por siempre pese a nuestras ofensas. La revelación de Dios hacia nosotros es un don de vida, un amor compartido de la Trinidad de personas que nos acercan más a Dios en amistad y comunión. Tanto el judaísmo como el islamismo consideran a la misericordia uno de los atributos más importantes de Dios. Israel incasablemente proclama la misericordia inmensa. El islamismo se refiere hacia Dios como "Misericordioso y Clemente" (Corán 59:22) creyendo en su divina e inmensa misericordia cuyas puertas siempre están abiertas. Que este Año Jubilar de la Misericordia, ruega el Papa Francisco, se nos abra a un dialogo más ferviente, profundizando nuestro entendimiento mutuo, eliminando toda falta de respeto de tener una mente cerrada y, eliminando toda falta de violencia y discriminación Misa de sanación Se celebra una Misa de Sanación el segundo miércoles de cada mes as las 12:10 p.m. Inmediatamente después de la Misa, se celebra el sacramento de la Unción de los Enfermos. La próxima fecha de la celebración será el de 2015. 11 de abril 2015. El Rezo del Santísimo Rosario Rezamos el rosario antes de la Misa en español todos los domingo empezando a las 2:20 p.m. Teléfonos celulares Pedimos atentamente que apaguen o cambien la señal de sus teléfonos durante la Misa para no interrumpir los ritos. . -Peter Scagnelli, Copyright (c) J.
