This coming Friday, June 5th, we will celebrate our monthly Latin First Friday Mass in the Fr. Puhl Center.
Come and join us at 5:00 pm for Rosary, followed by the Holy Mass at 5:30 pm.
A few minor issues fixed. I will be in Europe from June 10-23. Hopefully, I can find someone to put up the bulletin in my absence.
If you see any problems or find bugs please leave a comment so I can log it and fix.
This weekend, May 30-31, is the last weekend that we will celebrate the Holy Mass in the church as it is now. During all next week, our hard-working maintenance crew will be busy transforming the Fr. Puhl Center into our temporary church, while renovations take place. Our new location is going to work very well and will be very appropriate for the Holy Mass. Another bright spot: with Summer coming up, we will have beautiful air conditioning during Mass!
This weekend we celebrate the great Feast of Pentecost, when the Holy Spirit came upon the Apostles, giving birth to the Church.
Let us pray that with the help of the Paraclete, the entire world will understand the same language: the language of the Gospel.
Our Holy Catholic school says goodbye to our newest graduation class. As I look at the names of our eighth graders who will move on to high school, I can hardly believe that so many years have already gone by! I remember seeing some of our graduates as kindergartners, the first year that I came to Holy Trinity as your pastor. They were stepping into school for the first time of their lives, bright faced, with great expectations and some anxiety: the same feelings that I experienced when I first came among you.

June 17th Youth Center Watch for details
The other day, my sister was telling me about a conversation she had with the vicar at her parish, a young priest who is assigned to work with the youth. Don Alessandro told her that he is known by the nickname of “Fr. Bread and Water,” and this is why.
Today we celebrate the Solemnity of the Ascension of our Lord into Heaven. It is one of the earliest feasts of Christianity, and the date of the first celebration is uncertain. We know with certainty that it was officially celebrated in the fourth century. Why is this Feast so important? This is what the Catechism of the Catholic Church tells us:
- Christ’s Ascension marks the definitive entrance of Jesus’ humanity into God’s heavenly domain, whence He will come again (acts 1:11); His humanity rests with God, and in the meantime is hidden from the eyes of man (Col.3:3). (CCC paragraph 665)
- Jesus Christ, the head of the Church, precedes us into the Father’s glorious kingdom so that we, the members of His Body, may live in the hope of one day being with Him forever, (CCC paragraph 666)
- Jesus Christ, having entered the sanctuary of Heaven once and for all, intercedes constantly for us as the Mediator who assures us of the permanent outpouring of the Holy Spirit. (CCC, paragraph 667).
You are invited to the special Masses here on Memorial Day, May 25th, at 6:30 am and 8:00 am. We will be celebrating the Holy Mass in memory of all the deceased of our parish and your families. You are encouraged to make this holiday special by lifting up to our Lord’s loving mercy your loved ones who’ve died in Christ.
