PENTECOST SUNDAY June 4, 2017

SEND OUT YOUR SPIRIT Last week we heard that, following the Ascension, the disciples, Mary, and other followers of the Lord retreated to the upper room in prayer. This week we hear that, while praying in that room, the Holy Spirit comes upon them. Jesus' post-Resurrection promise, recounted in today's Gospel, is fulfilled: the power of the Holy Spirit comes upon Jesus' followers. Saint Paul tells us that all of us, in some way, are given gifts of the Holy Spirit, gifts that can be used to spread the Good News. Today is one of the Church's greatest festivals. Let us carry the refrain of the responsorial psalm with us throughout the coming week: "Lord, send out your Spirit, and renew the face of the earth!" (Psalm 104:30). Copyright (c) J. S. Paluch Co.

PASTOR’S CORNER As we celebrate Pentecost Sunday we acknowledge how important the gifts and empowerment of the Holy Spirit are in guiding, nourishing and strengthening us as disciples’ of Christ. At the time of our baptism in the Spirit we are all called to participate and share in the identity and mission of Christ. By the power of the Holy Spirit in each of us the life of Christ the Servant is activated to fulfill important roles in our world. In our parish this weekend we celebrate a Mass of Thanksgiving with Father James–Peter Trares, O.P. He has been nourished and strengthened in his calling to the ordained priesthood by his family and this faith community. In his ministry of the priesthood James Peter will have so many opportunities to bring the loving, healing presence of Christ to others through the power of the Holy Spirit. May we all assure him of our constant support and prayers!

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION Today, the languages of the whole world arise to God in a Pentecost of praise. In some American dioceses, the Mass is offered every Sunday in more than thirty different languages, including the silent praise of American Sign Language. Fifty years ago, the landscape of liturgy was very different. It was grounded firmly in Latin, which is to the present day still the official language of the Roman Rite. Very few people were fluent in Latin, even though in those days Latin was far more widely studied in school. Nevertheless, almost every Catholic was competent in the responses and chants of Latin since it is not difficult to pronounce. The clergy were normally minimally competent in Latin, since much of seminary education was conducted in that language. When the Second Vatican Council was convened, all of the debate and daily work of the council was to be in Latin. In the first session in 1962, Boston's Cardinal Richard Cushing continually complained about it, and threatened not to return in 1963 if something wasn't done. He convinced the fathers when he rose to speak in fairly fluent Latin in an unforgettable Boston twang. The next year, he returned, but with a simultaneous translation system funded by the people of Boston. The ordinary everyday language of the people, the vernacular, had arrived at the Vatican via Boston!

CMS HERO AWARD Congratulations to St. Joe parishioner Raeann Quiggle who recently received the Crestwood Middle School Hero Award.

She loves the idea that she just made someone’s life easier and she just might have changed the trajectory of someone’s day. Fr. Stafford accepted the $100.00 donation to St. Joseph Church made in her name. What a deserving honor for such a sweet young lady!
