PASTORAL DIRECTION
Proclaim the Gospel
Today we celebrate one of the tenets of our creed: that the Lord
ascended into heaven. From Mark’s Gospel we hear the final words Jesus spoke to his disciples shortly before he ascended into heaven. Those
were words of commissioning, no less real for us today than they were
to the disciples then.
We are called to “proclaim the gospel to every creature.” For the
vast majority of us, this means that we proclaim the gospel by the witness of our everyday lives. Treating others with dignity and respect,
providing for those less fortunate than ourselves, being good stewards
of the many gifts showered on us, coming together as God’s
family in worship and praise—these are all signs that the gospel
has taken root in our lives.
TAIZE PRAYER SERVICE AND NOVENA TO THE HOLY SPIRIT
As we near the end of the Easter Season, we begin to prepare for the great feast of Pentecost. After
the Feast of the Ascension of the Lord, the church urges us to begin a novena to the Holy Spirit.
The Novena to the Holy Spirit
is the oldest novena and the only one
prescribed by the Church, since it was
instructed by Jesus when He sent the
Apostles to wait and pray for the Holy
Spirit. We will anticipate this noveThursday, May 14th at 7:30 p.m.
na with a Taize Prayer Service on
In this prayer form we meditate,
chant, and praise God for what has
been and what has yet to be revealed
as we await the coming of the Holy
Spirit.
The Novena will begin on
Friday, May 16th after the 8:00
a.m. Mass and will be prayed after
Mass each morning including
through to May 23rd. (This includes
Sunday!)
For those who are unable to be present
each day at Mass, copies of the novena will be will be available in the
Gathering Space so that everyone
can have the opportunity of joining with the Church as she awaits the completion of Easter in the celebration of the Holy Spirit.
TAIZE PRAYER SERVICE MAY 14th at 7:30 p.m.
NOVENA TO THE HOLY SPIRIT MAY 15 THROUGH TO May 23rd. (after the 8:00 a.m. Mass)
