Our Lord foretold the coming of the Paraclete to His disciples.
ut the Paraclete, the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring all things to your mind, whatsoever I shall have said to you. Peace I
leave with you, My peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, do I give unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, nor let it be afraid. You have heard that I said to you: I go away, and I come unto you. If you loved Me, you would indeed be glad, because I go to the Father: for the Father is greater than I. And now I have told you before it come to pass: that when it shall come to pass you may believe.

FEAST OF PENTECOST:
Suddenly there came a sound from Heaven as of a mighty wind coming,
And it filled the whole house where they were sitting.
There appeared to them parted tongues as it were of fire, and it sat upon
every one of them; And they were all
filled with the Holy Ghost.
(Acts 2, 2-4)

DRESS CODE
We want to foster the greatest reverence and respect for Our Lord at Mater Ecclesiae. Our attire is an outward expression of our love for the Lord and shows how important He is to us. It is also a sign of our respect for the House of God. Therefore, one should always wear their “Sunday Best” to Mass: modesty, good taste and common sense should prevail. Accordingly, the following rules apply: • NO SHORTS, EVER, FOR MEN, WOMEN
OR CHILDREN. • Women: No revealing clothing, low necklines,
short skirts or bare midriffs. Please dress modestly with dignity and self-respect. We suggest that women wear a head covering.
• Men: No tattered, soiled work clothes, old jeans or gym clothes. Please wear “business or business casual attire” to set a good example for our young men and boys.
If you would like to donate any amount towards the altar flowers for regular Sundays, please place the Flower Offering envelope in the collection basket. Each month, the intentions on the envelopes will be remembered.
To donate the flowers for special Holy Days, the cost is $50 per bouquet or vase, or $200 for the four bouquets (2 on altar, 1 for Blessed Mother, 1 for St. Joseph).
The special Holy Days will be listed in the bulletin, like our Choral Masses.

Ember Days are on the Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday following the First Sunday in Lent and Pentecost Sunday, during the third full week of September, and after the Third Sunday of Advent. They are days of fasting for the special sanctification of the four seasons and for obtaining God’s blessing on the clergy, for whose ordination the Ember Saturdays are specially set apart. The Propers of the Masses reflect the Season in which they occur and include additional Lessons said before the Gospel.
