Holy Spirit Prayer: At the end of the homilies last weekend, we prayed together a prayer of faith in Jesus, repentance for sin, and
an asking for the Holy Spirit. The basics were “thank you, sorry, please.” Here is the prayer we said together: Heavenly Father,
thank you for sending your Holy Spirit through Jesus Christ your Son. I proclaim my faith today in Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. I
repent of all my sins. Dear Holy Spirit I surrender today to all that you want to do in me. Come with your Gi!s and Charisms
transform my life more deeply. Come, Holy Spirit! Amen. Con!nue to pray for a bap!sm in the Holy Spirit! Don’t be afraid of the
Holy Spirit or the gi!s of God. You will not become a “Looney Tune!” Being bap!zed in the Holy Spirit is not a sacrament, it is not
just head knowledge or a deeper understanding of the doctrine of the Holy Spirit, it is not simply greater devo!on to the Holy
Spirit or even something reserved for the “spiritually mature.” Rather, being bap!zed in the Holy Spirit is for EVERYONE, and it “is
an ongoing experience of Pentecost. It is a release of the Holy Spirit such that we experience all that God promises us as our
inheritance…It is an experience of the Spirit which is o!en accompanied by a deep personal encounter with Christ, characterized
by a glimpse of his Lordship, an experience of the Father’s love which is personal and deeply libera#ng, and a new awareness that
we are truly not orphans but that the Holy Spirit is in fact present and ready to encourage, convict, guide and help us understand
the things of God…This vital experience of the Trinity brings with it a new or renewed desire for prayer, including in a special way
praise, adora#on, and thanksgiving, a new or renewed desire to read scripture o!en described as the “scriptures coming alive”
and a desire to tell others about the goodness of God. It is also frequently accompanied by a desire to be in rela#onship with
other Chris#ans and is o!en accompanied by one or more of the charisms listed in [scriptures].” (Ralph Mar!n, A New Pentecost.)
Come Holy Spirit! I think the Holy Spirit has been leading us to follow the Alpha course—and through that experience, bestow his
gi$s upon us. Sign up a$er Mass so we can provide enough food for the meal, and see you on June 6th
at 6pm.
Congratula#ons again to our 7 gradua!ng high school seniors, Shea Alto, Ka!e Benjamin, Kobey Cofer, Hunter Merten, Grayson
Nordin, Taylor Sagen, and Shelby Short. May God who has begun his good work in you bring it to fulfillment in the day of Christ
Jesus our Lord!
On this Memorial Day weekend, a sincere “thank you” to all of our veterans and military service men and women, sheriff’s
depu!es and police officers, emergency responders, and public service personnel. May God con!nue to protect and guide you
and draw you closer to Himself!

October 13th at Marshall School in Duluth. Colin MacIver,
interna!onal speaker from Ascension Press, will present
“Made in His Image…Made for Love.” 50 Years a$er
Humanae Vitae, rediscover God’s plan for love.

MEMORIAL DAY
"No one has greater love than this, to lay down one's life for
one's friends." Chris!ans are no strangers to sacrifice. Jesus
lays down his life for our redemp!on, martyrs remain faithful
to the end, and every believer faces "deaths" in the spiritual
life when love requires a re-ordering of preference and
priority.
On Memorial Day, we honor those who laid down their lives
for their na!on and for the values we espouse - freedom,
jus!ce, and a be'er world for our children. In a day that o$en
fills with barbeques and boat launches, remember to take
some !me in prayer! Intercede for those who have died and
for the loved ones they le$ behind, and pray for peace on
earth. (www.lpi.com)
