Sixth Sunday of Easter St. Catholic Andrew Church May 21, 2017 Iglesia Católica de San Andrés Welcoming Statement St. Andrew is a faith community baptized into one body, which honors and celebrates diversity. We welcome and include persons of every color, language, ethnicity, origin, ability, sexual orientation, gender expression, marital status, and life situation. Parish Mission St. Andrew Parish recognizes that, as Jesus Christ was sent by God to “bring the good news to the poor, to proclaim liberty to captives,and to the blind new sight, to set the downtrodden free, to proclaim the Lord’s year of favor,” (Luke 4:18) ....so it is the mission of St. Andrew Parish to be a visible presence of Christ in our culturally and racially diverse neighborhood, rooted in the Gospel and nurtured by liturgy, prayer, and the community of faith. As such we commit ourselves to work with the poor, the powerless, and the oppressed for the liberation of all; to seek justice, compassion, and peace in our lives, community, and world; and to proclaim and celebrate God’s unconditional love for all. La Parroquia de San Andrés es una comunidad bautizada en un cuerpo, que honra y celebra la diversidad. Acogemos a las personas de todos colores, lenguas, razas, origenes, habilidades, orientación sexual, estado civil y estilos de vida. La Parroquia de San Andrés reconoce que, así como Jesús fue enviado por Dios“para traer la Buena Nueva a los pobres, para anunciar libertad a los cautivos, y a los ciegos nueva luz. Poner en libertad a los oprimidos y proclamar el año de gracia del Señor,”(San Lucas 4:18) ....También es la misión de la Parroquia de San Andrés, el ser presencia visible de Cristo en nuestra comunidad con diversidad de razas y culturas, enraizada en el Evangelio y alimentada por la liturgia, la oración, y la comunidad de fe. Como iglesia, nos comprometemos a trabajar con los pobres, los desamparados y oprimidos, por la liberación de todos; para buscar justicia, compasión, paz en nuestras vidas, en la comunidad y en el mundo entero, y para proclamar y celebrar el amor incondicional de Dios para todos. May 21, 2017 Promoting Success Luncheon at Nativity School Today’s Liturgy By Deacon Owen Cummings If the first reading today, from Acts 8 telling us of the missionary activity of Philip, Peter and John, provides us with a paradigm of the Church in action/ mission, the gospel reading from John gives us a paradigm of the Church's identity, the foundation of its mission. Quite simply, the gospel text today reminds us, in words of Origen of Alexandria, that the Church is "full of the Trinity." The Lord Jesus is going away, but he tells his disciples that another Paraclete/Advocate, the Holy Spirit will be given. In verse 6 of this chapter, Jesus proclaimed, "I am the truth." The Paraclete who is to be "with (us) always" is described as "the Spirit of truth." He brings about the presence of Jesus in us, a presence not only "with (us)", but "within (us)." What does the Lord mean by the words "I will come back to you"? It certainly means that he will come back in Resurrection, but surely it also means that he will return in the Parousia. From Resurrection to Parousia he will be presenced among us through Baptism and Eucharist, making us in Pope John Paul II's words Ecclesia de Eucharistia, "the Church made by the Eucharist." As a result, we will know that, in Jesus' words, "I am in the Father, and you in me, and I in you." If he is in us, and we are in him, and he is in the Father, then we too are in the Father. The Church, full of the Trinity, is impelled by that indwelling Trinity to bring others to Trinitarian awareness and living. The Trinity invites and enables the Church in action/mission. © 2005, OCP.

This delightful musical ran for over 3,000 performances. One of the popular songs dealt with the father of the Jewish family, Tevye, asking his wife Golde whether she loved him. Golde found it a foolish question, for had she not been his wife for twenty-five years, washed his clothes, fed him and their daughters day after day? But Tevye persisted again and again until Golde said, “I suppose I do.” To which Tevye responded, “It’s nice to know.” It is nice to know that we are loved. It’s nice to hear the words, “I love you.” True, doing good to others and serving their needs is a witness of love, but the words confirm the unspoken. Unfortunately, millions of people go through life without hearing those glorious words. “If you love me,” Jesus says, “you will keep my commandments.” And the two great commandments? To love God and neighbor. It is through the gift of the Holy Spirit that we are empowered to move beyond our narcissistic, narrow lives and to be for others. In the laying on of hands at Confirmation, the Spirit came upon us to do the loving deed and to speak the loving works: “I love you.” Now, isn’t that nice to know? Certain silences are oppressive,” Pope Francis writes in his post-synodal apostolic exhortation, Amoris Laetitia (The Joy of Love). And, “The right words, spoken at the right time, daily protect and nurture love.” Pope Francis is our fiddler on the roof, singing the song of love and joy. Robert F. Morneau is pastor of Resurrection Parish in Green Bay, Wisconsin, and auxiliary bishop emeritus of the Diocese of Green Bay.
