Weekly column from our Pastoral Associate, Margo Morin

Weekly bulletin column from our pastor, Fr. Bob Murray

I hope you’re enjoying this feast of feast days between Easter and Ordinary Time. This week, it’s the Most Holy Trinity that we’re celebrating, and writing this week’s lesson, it struck me; how crazy is it that this central belief of our Church is one that no one can explain or even understand?? To me, that’s equally frustrating as it is intriguing. But this week at The Prayer Course, I heard something that might help us deal with this; our host said “contemplation is more like star-gazing than astronomy…” and that makes me think that maybe, even if we can not understand the Trinity, we can contemplate it, and be better and more united to God in that. I pray you have wonderful conversations about this scripture, and blessed feast days!

This past Thursday we celebrated the Feast of the Ascension. The Gospel scenes from Matthew and Luke are similar, and along with the account in the book of Acts, all are a good reminder that we are not meant to sit at home waiting for Jesus to bring others to us.

Someone at Mass this morning asked me “Is this the 27th Sunday of Easter?” and I had to admit, it does seem like we’ve been in this season a while now… one more week of John

Easter continues, but in the Gospels, we stay in our swing back through the Farewell discourse in the Last Supper. Now that we know how the Easter story turned out, we are able to read Jesus’ words with the added context of a couple of thousand years of experience. I hope you have wonderful, fruit-filled conversations around how these messages, shared in Jesus’ last days before His crucifixion, still apply today.
