Kermit the Frog of Muppet fame sang about it not being easy to be green. You may hear me complain during the time God gives me with this parish that it is not easy preparing homily material for any given Sunday BECAUSE…. There is a liturgical calendar that determines the feasts, seasons, readings and proper prayers. Then there is a civil calendar that gives us federal and state holidays, heroes, events and concerns to be honored and remembered. Then there is breaking news of war, natural disasters, or health issues and such. All of these things clamor for the preacher’s attention, direction or response. Today, the liturgical calendar gives us Jesus speaking of the Good Shepherd in John’s Gospel and declares this to be the world day of prayer for vocations. In the United States this Sunday is Mother’s Day. Mother’s Day is on the 10th of May in Mexico, Guatemala and El Salvador regardless of the day of the week that the 10th may be, like the 4th of July is here. So, on any given Sunday to which theme is the homilist to pay attention? I almost always give priority to the readings of the day. BUT mothers, motherhood, and such are primal themes, essential to life as we know it. We can joke or ponder about which came first, the chicken or the egg, but at a personal level our mothers came first. Without them we would not have life at all. They are our first teachers about life, love, responsibility, grace and forgiveness. Some mothers struggle under the burden, most fulfill their role admirably with no small measure of gracefulness. I raise a toast today and ask God’s blessing for all women who have the honor to be called mother. I thank God for my own mother and for the gift of life she gave me. May our hearts be grateful for that which we have received from them, may our eyes be open to appreciate the challenges and sacrifices the bore for us, may our ears be open to hear the wisdom they have shared with us. May God bless them through us as he has blessed us through them. This is a photo of my own mother used in a newspaper ad for the company where she worked. It was taken shortly before her death. She is on the left. †MASS INTENTIONS† Saturday, May 10th 5:00 PM .......

M PACEM IN TERRIS Now the order which prevails in human society is wholly incorporeal in nature. Its foundation is truth, and it must be brought into effect by justice. It needs to be animated and perfected by men's love for one another, and, while preserving freedom intact, it must make for an equilibrium in society which is increasingly more human in character. But such an order—universal, absolute and immutable in its principles—finds its source in the true, personal and transcendent God. He is the first truth, the sovereign good, and as such the deepest source from which human society, if it is to be properly constituted, creative, and worthy of man's dignity, draws its genuine vitality. (26) This is what St. Thomas means when he says: "Human reason is the standard which measures the degree of goodness of the human will, and as such it derives from the eternal law, which is divine reason . . . Hence it is clear that the goodness of the human will depends much more on the eternal law than on human reason." (37-38) ost loving God and Father, you created us in your image and likeness and blew into us the Spirit of life, a portion of your own divine Spirit. In the fullness of time you sent your Son to live among us, to witness to your glory and to redeem us by his sacrifice on the cross. We confess, Father, that all that we have, all that we are able to do is your gift to us. You have blessed us beyond what we could ever deserve. As grateful stewards we return to you, in the service of your divine kingdom, a portion of the time, talents and treasure that we have received in honor of your goodness to us. Lord God, we want to be your good and faithful servants. The Council of Catholic Women will be hosting a day retreat open to all men and women in the parish. The retreat will be held on Saturday, May 31st from 9 am to 4 pm. Our beloved and dynamic Fr. Roy Lee will be our guest speaker for the retreat, so please save the date and plan on an exhilarating day with the Lord!

May 18thCecilia Betancourt, Baylee Evans, Julio Fonseca, Jacinta Kihiu and Esteban Toribio Jr. OUTREACH MINISTRY "Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee" The "Hail Mary" is based on the angel Gabriel's greeting to Mary in the book of Luke. St. Luke portrays Mary as the model disciple because she exemplifies the teachings of Christ. It is my favorite prayer. In fact, May is my favorite month. It brings back all the memories of the May Crowning, the music and the devotion we learned at a very young age from our Moms, our Grandmothers and the Sisters who taught us in our past lives. The stories of Mary all revolve around her patience, her strength in a time of despair as she watched her beloved Son die and her acceptance of her role as a model for all Catholic women. And here we are. Most of us came from some place else. Some of us were transferred. Some of us came to avoid one more winter of snow and ice. Some came on vacation and decided this would be a great place to retire. We brought our faith and our traditions with us. We came to a place where our numbers were likely much smaller that they were in other areas. Today's theologians are in agreement that we didn't arrive here because of that variety of reasons. But rather, it is the will of the Holy Spirit. We came here to share our faith and to make it known to those who are not familiar with our worship and our traditions. Have you thought of yourself as an evangelist? We have brought our treasured traditions and we have rethought our roles from the 1950s, 60s and 70s. We are the faithful of the 2000s. We slogged our way through changes in language, changes in the apparel of our Sisters, changes in the roles of our clergy and a plethora of other "alterations in style." I still don't understand that word "consubstantial." We are professionals when it comes to living through changes. And, in addition to that, though they were difficult, we know that they were right thing to do. It seems we have a new role in a new location. We are called to step out into our community and make ourselves known. We are called to invite our brothers and sisters to come join us in social affairs and in opening our traditions to those who have only heard about us. Those of us who involve our lives in Community Outreach ask you to join us in making our presence known in the community. It is the mission of this ministry to be present to the needs of our community. We support as many of the non-profit organizations in Bartow County as we can possibly manage. We are called to support those who are hungry, jobless, in need of clothing and those who value life and work towards saving the unborn. This week, we have made our first stop at the refuge for battered women. We have, on a few occasions, sent a woman to this haven in cases where she may not have felt safe. This week, when we called, they were pleased to hear from us and they welcomed our offer of support. We delivered several bags of toiletries which are always a need for those who have come in an emergency. Luckily, we have found a source of Pop Tarts at a very reasonable price. We can buy a case for about $50.00. The price is right and they deliver the case to our front door. If you have been donating Pop Tarts, would you like to take a white envelope every week or every month and put five dollars or ten dollars in the envelope? Put "Outreach" on the front of the envelope and put it in the collection. By the way, $20.00 is perfectly acceptable. The Pop Tarts are given to the Back Pack Program during the school year and to the Summer Program for Kids during the summer. Our homeless shelters are always in need of groceries and cleaning supplies. Toiletries are an essential. Some personal items, we buy at the dollar stores. Cleaning supplies can be purchased through a warehouse. We shop wherever we get the best prices. We are committed to using your donations with great care. We are known in our community as generous givers and that is how we should be known. We can do more. We can reach more people. We can tell the story of our faith in an instant by responding to the needs in our community. Thus, we always need your financial support. Being there when needed is easy for us. Our next logical step is to make our neighbors welcome to come to our worship and to see us celebrate our traditions and understand who we are. Theologians tell us we were sent here for a specific reason. We must be about doing what we sent to do. Respect L I F E Respect for Life Prayer God of life and love You created us in Your image And sent Your Son to bring us life. Instill in us a respect for all life, From conception to natural death. Empower us to work for justice for the poor. Nourish us that we may bring food to the hungry. Inspire us to cherish the fragile life of the unborn. Strengthen us to bring comfort to the chronically ill. Teach us to treat the aging with dignity and respect. Bring us one day into the glory of everlasting life. We ask through Christ our Lord. -Amen LOVING HANDS GROUP Saint Francis of Assisi Loving Hands knitting and crocheting ministry welcomes you to visit with them each Thursday from 10:00 am to noon here at St. Francis.

FRANCIS COUNCIL OF CATHOLIC WOMEN Next meeting will be on Wednesday, May 14 at 6:30 PM in the LaSalette Hall. All the ladies of the Parish are invited to join this wonderful Ministry. Mission Statement: The National Council of Catholic Women acts through its members to support, empower and educate all Catholic women in spirituality, leadership and service. NCCW programs respond with Gospel values to the needs of the Church and society in the modern world. ESPAÑOL Cuarto Domingo de Pascua Entré al cuarto del hospital, con una flamante camisa de cuello romano, una bien recién marcada, releída y seriamente estudiada Biblia bajo el brazo: era el seminarista-soldado que llegaba a su primera batalla en el frente pastoral para instruir, guiar y consolar. En el primer momento no vi a nadie en la cama, sólo tubos y alambres de monitores que terminaban misteriosamente entre las sábanas. Finalmente pude distinguir la figura frágil debajo de ellas, un cuerpo calvo y enflaquecido por los tratamientos. La voz me pareció salir de sus ojos hundidos y persistentes que se lanzaban en mi dirección con sorprendente vigor: "¡Si me lee ese *&(^!%$##%!! salmo del pastor, arranco el *&(^!%$##%!! enchufe yo misma!" Abruptamente me senté en la silla más cercana, no porque necesitaba quedarme en el cuarto, sino porque mis piernas se sintieron flaquear y pensé que me fallaban. Cuando la cabeza dejó de darme vueltas miré a mi alrededor y noté cantidad de tarjetas con el Salmo 23, "Huellas en la arena" y otras. Yo tenía mi Biblia con la punta doblada en el Salmo 23, pero el Espíritu Santo -como sucede muchas veces- vino a rescatarme y me guió a una hoja anterior. Juntos rezamos, "Dios mío, Dios mío, ¿por qué me has abandonado?" Más tarde me enteré que nadie había permitido a esa mujer, tan seriamente enferma, procesar espiritualmente la angustia y el enfado que sentía por su enfermedad. Semanas más tarde, ella me dijo: "Siempre pensé que era la tarea del Pastor no dejarme caer en el valle de la muerte; ahora sé que su tarea es estar allí conmigo." Estos pensamientos parecerán extraños durante el tiempo de Pascua, pero nos recordamos del Buen Pastor rezando el Salmo 22, abandonado en la cruz, sólo hace unas pocas semanas. Al escuchar y cantar sobre las imágenes consoladoras del pastor, es bueno que recordemos que hay alguien probablemente sentado cerca de nosotros que está en un valle oscuro, o que tal vez nosotros mismos estemos atravesando por uno, o tal vez estamos por entrar en uno que no sospechamos. Pero tenemos la fe de la resurrección para pastorearnos; una fe que no sólo vive en nosotros, sino en la Iglesia, el Cuerpo de Cristo, en nuestro Buen Pastor resucitado y vivo por el Espíritu. Copyright (c) J. S. Paluch Company SIGAMOS AL BUEN PASTOR El tono de alegría de los tres domingos pasados se ensombrece hoy. Las tres lecturas nos recuerdan el sufrimiento, la muerte y el pecado. Nosotros, igual que la audiencia de Pedro en la primera lectura, podemos preguntar, "¿Qué tenemos que hacer?" Y la respuesta es la misma: Tenemos que convertirnos. O, como Pedro dice en su primera carta, nos hemos extraviado como las ovejas perdidas y tenemos que regresar al pastor. En el Evangelio de hoy Jesús se describe a sí mismo como el pastor y sabemos que fue una de las primeras imágenes de Cristo en la Iglesia de los apóstoles. El pasaje de hoy continúa el tema más sombrío de las dos primeras lecturas. El peligro acecha y las ovejas necesitan protección. Podrían seguir un guía falso, podrían ser robadas o destruidas. Sólo con Jesús estarán a salvo. Sólo con Jesús lograremos la vida eterna. PACEM IN TERRIS El orden vigente en la sociedad es todo él de naturaleza espiritual. Porque se funda en la verdad, debe practicarse según los preceptos de la justicia, exige ser vivificado y completado por el amor mutuo, y, por último, respetando íntegramente la libertad, ha de ajustarse a una igualdad cada día más humana.
