Come Holy Spirit, come into our hearts,

inflame all people with the fire of your love. Send forth your Spirit and all will be reborn.

And you will renew the face of the earth.

Holy Spirit, we give ourselves to you soul and body.

We ask you to give us your Spirit of Wisdom,

Understanding, Counsel, Fortitude, Knowledge, Piety, and Fear of the Lord.

Come, Holy Spirit, Almighty Sanctifier, God of love,

who filled the Virgin Mary with grace, who wonderfully changed

the hearts of the apostles, who endowed all your martyrs

with miraculous courage, come and sanctify us.

Enlighten our minds, strengthen our wills,

purify our consciences, rectify our judgment,

set our hearts on fire, and preserve us from the misfortune

of resisting your inspirations. We ask this through Christ our Lord.

Ven Espíritu Santo, llena los corazones de tus fieles y enciende en nosotros el fuego de tu amor. Envía Señor tu Espíritu y todo será re-creado. Y tú renovarás la faz de la tierra. Espíritu Santo, nos entregamos a ti en cuerpo y alma. Te pedimos que nos des tu Espíritu de Sabiduría, Inteligencia, Consejo, Fortaleza, Conocimiento, Piedad, y Temor de Dios. Ven, Espíritu Santo, Santificador Todopoderoso, Dios de amor, quien llenaste de gracia a la Virgen María, quien maravillosamente transformaste los corazones de los apóstoles, quien concediste a tus mártires un valor milagroso, ven y santifícanos. Ilumina nuestras mentes, fortalece nuestra voluntad, purifica nuestras conciencias, rectifica nuestros juicios, enciende tu fuego en nuestros corazones, y líbranos de la desgracia de resistir tu inspiración. Te lo pedimos por Jesucristo nuestro Señor.

El Espíritu Santo nos da la verdadera vida y la paz Solemnidad de Pentecostés Semana del 15 de mayo del 2016 Escucha la Palabra (Juan 20:19 — 23) ¿Qué palabras o frases le impactó? ¿Qué parte de esta lectura tocó su corazon? ¿Qué se quedó en su memoria? Ve tu vida Pregunta para los niños: Jesús nos dice que debemos perdonar para tener paz. Nombren una manera en que pueden perdonar a un amigo o compañero de clase. Pregunta para los jóvenes: San Pablo nos dice que todos tenemos dones únicos para el bienestar de los demás. ¿Qué es especial en ti? ¿Cómo puedes usar esos dones para ayudar a otras personas: ami-gos, familiares, desconocidos? Pregunta para los adultos: Aún como discípulos activos de Cristo, se nos ha otorgado el don de la paz. ¿Cómo experimentan este don y cómo lo comparten con los demás? Actividades para la semana Tomen estas actividades para reflexionar más: Jesús confió la misión del perdón de los pecados a los discípulos. ¿Cuándo han necesitado el perdón de los miembros de su familia? Hablen de maneras en que su familia puede continuar la misión de los discípulos de perdonar los pecados. El don del Espíritu Santo nos permite crecer en nuestra aceptación y comprensión entre unos y otros. Cada noche al sentarse a cenar, ha-blen de los dones del Espíritu y las maneras en que su familia puede experimentar ese don. Los dones del Espíritu son: sabiduría, entendi-miento, conocimiento, consejo, fortaleza, piedad, admiración y temor. ¿Qué previene a su familia de ser una en Cristo? ¿Dónde se necesi-ta reconciliación? ¿Qué pueden hacer para ayudar a aliviar a su famil-ia? ¿Dónde ven la presencia del Espíritu?

The Holy Spirit gives us true life and peace Solemnity of Pentecost Week of May 15, 2016 Listen to the Word (John 20:19 — 23) What words or phrases strike you? What in this reading touches your heart? What lingers in your memory? Look into your life Question for children: Jesus tells us that we need to forgive to have peace. Name one way that you can forgive a friend or classmate. Question for youth: St. Paul tells us that we all have unique gifts for the good of others. What is special about you? How can you use those gifts to help others – friends, family, strangers? Question for adults: Even as working disciples of Christ, we are given the gift of peace. How do you experience this gift, and how do you share it with others? Activities for the week Take these activities to further reflect: Jesus entrusted his disciples with the mission of forgiving sins. When have you needed forgiveness from the members of your family? Talk about ways your family can continue the disciple’s mission of forgiving sins. The gift of the Holy Spirit enables us to grow in acceptance and understanding of one another. Each evening at the dinner table, discuss one of the gifts of the Holy Spirit and ways that your family can live out that gift. Gifts of the Spirit: Wisdom, Un-derstanding, Knowledge, Counsel, Courage, Reverence, Wonder and Awe. What keeps your family from being one in Christ? Where is reconciliation needed? What can you do to help heal your family? Where do you see the presence of the Spirit?

Domingo de Pentecostés Un milagro de Pentecostés fue que, a pesar de su diver-sidad, cada oyente escuchó la palabra de Dios en su propio lenguage. El significado para la corresponsabilidad es que, al compartir los dones que el Espíritu Santo ha derramado en nosotros, tendremos el poder para satisfacer las nece-sidades de nuestros hermanos y hermanas.

May 15, 2016

Pentecost Sunday

One miracle of Pentecost was that, despite their diversi-ty, each listener heard God’s word in his or her own

language. The meaning for stewardship is that, by shar-ing the gifts poured out on us by the Holy Spirit, we will

be empowered to meet the needs of our brothers and sisters.

EASTER

Fíjate en los niños cuando cantan su canción prefe-rida y verás caras sonrientes y alegres mientras sus voces se proyectan fuerte y claramente. Cuántas veces olvidamos esa actitud como adultos y nos volremos en tan solemnes y hasta alarmistas en cuanto a nues-tra fe, que todo se vuelve muy rígido. Tal vez pensemos que hemos de ser perfectos antes de que Dios use nuestros talentos y habite en nuestro corazón. Algunos de no-sotros, según dice un obispo, vienen a la confesión semana tras semana para confesar los mismos pecados. Hoy recordamos Pentecostés, el quincuagésimo día después de la Pascua cuando, según fue prometido, el Espíritu Santo des-cendió sobre los apóstoles. Éste no es sólo un acontecimiento histórico reservado para ellos exclusivamente. El Espíritu desciende continua-mente sobre todos nosotros, pero tu corazón ha de estar abierto para ser transformado, tal como el de los discípulos. Cobra ánimo con la lista de estos personajes, que parecían im-probables para ningún cambio, pero que Dios transformó, pues tenía un propósito para ellos: Adán era un cobarde. Noé era un borracho. Sara era muy anciana. Isaac era un soñador. Jacob era un mentiroso. José fue abusado. Moisés tenía un problema de tartamudez. Gedeón tuvo miedo. Sansón era un peludo mujeriego. Rajab era prostituta. Jeremías era demasiado joven. David tuvo relaciones extramaritales y fue un asesino. Elías fue suicida. Isaías predicó desnudo. Jonás huyó de Dios. Noemí era viuda. Job se fue a la bancarrota. Juan Bautista comía insectos. Pedro negó a Cristo—tres veces. Marta se preocupaba por todo. Tres apóstoles se quedaron dormidos mientras rezaban y salieron co-rriendo cuando olieron problema. María Magdalena sufría de una enfermedad mental. La Samaritana era divorciada—más de una vez. Zaqueo era muy bajo de estatura. Pablo era demasiado religioso. Timoteo padecía de una úlcera y ¡Lázaro estaba muerto! Copyright © 2009, World Library Publications. All rights reserved.

Watch small children singing their favorite song and you’ll hear voices piped up loud and clear, and see happy, smiling faces. How quickly we forget this as adults, and become so solemn and even anxious about faith and take ourselves much too seriously. We may think we have to be perfect before God can use us or make a home in our hearts. Some of us, according to one bishop, even come back to confession week after week and confess the same sins. Today we remember Pentecost, the fiftieth day after Easter when, as promised, the power of the Holy Spirit was poured out onto the apostles. This was not just one historical event reserved for them alone. The Spirit is poured out continuously for us all. But your heart must be open to being transformed as the apostles were. Take heart from this popular list of the unlikeliest characters that the Spirit has transformed for God’s purposes: Adam was a coward. Noah was a drunk. Sarah was too old. Isaac was a daydreamer. Jacob was a liar. Joseph was abused. Moses had a stuttering problem. Gideon was afraid. Samson was a long-haired womanizer. Rahab was a “lady of the evening.” Jeremiah was too young. David had an affair and was a murderer. Elijah was suicidal. Isaiah preached naked. Jonah ran from God. Naomi was a widow. Job went bankrupt. John the Baptist ate bugs. Peter denied Christ—three times. Martha worried about everything. Three apostles fell asleep while praying and they all ran away at the first sign of trouble. Mary Magdalene was mentally ill. The Samaritan woman was divorced—more than once. Zaccheus was too small. Paul was too religious. Timothy had an ulcer and Lazarus was dead! Copyright © 2009, World Library Publications.

Reminder from Faith Formation 1Corinthians 12:12-13:

“12 Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ. 13 For we were all baptized by[] one Spirit so

as to form one body—whether Jews or Gentiles, slave or free—and we were all given the one Spirit to drink." We are all members of the body of Christ, we are his hands and his feet, we are his heart and his voice. Please prayer-fully consider becoming a catechist in the parish faith for-mation sessions. We are in need of those willing and able to serve as leaders and co-leaders. Training and materials are provided. Please contact Michelle Gunter at ffeng@lasalettecanton.com for more information.
