A 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck Nepal in the late

earthqueake. Please join with the Catholic community
across the United States in responding to our suffering
brothers and sisters through a special collection for the
work of the Catholic Relief Services (CRS) in Nepal. CRS

urgent needs for shelter, water and food in Nepal. For

In Our Year of the Family
God gives us a Spiritual Mother
The Month of May is a month
for mothers! So step aside
dads, its mom’s month! And
how important is the mother in
the life of the family! And so we
set this time aside to honor
them and the important role
they play.
From the Cross, Christ gives
us His mother.
There is a maternal dimension
to Christianity as well -- a spiritual maternity. In giving
birth to Jesus physically, Mary also gives birth to us
spiritually, becoming our spiritual mother and mother of
the Church. And this is highlighted at the Cross: “This
is your Mother” (John 19:26). It’s not just a symbolic
gesture; Christ gave us the gift of his mother for a
purpose.
As our spiritual Mother, Mary has a special role to
play.
As a woman, moms have a special gift – the gift of the
feminine. Through the writings of St. Edith Stein we
gain some deeper insight on the role of women and
motherhood in particular. Such were the insights too of
Pope St John Paul II (Christifideles Laici, n. 51):
8 in a special way the human being is entrusted to
woman, precisely because the woman in virtue of
her special experience of motherhood is seen to
have special sensitivity toward the human person
and all that constitutes the individual’s true welfare,
beginning with the fundamental value of life.
Motherhood lies at the center of the New Covenant,
because the Father entrusts His Son to a mother.
This applies to every child as well, trusting our care
totally to a mother as we pass through the “utter
helplessness and dependency” stage. This precedes
coming to know the father. And this applies too in our
relationship with God the Father. We must first be
entrusted to a mother before there is any possibility of
our coming to know the father, whether human or
divine. And what a mother we all have!
So -- Let us entrust our Families to Mother Mary!
The motherhood of Mary serves as a model for all
motherhood F and for life! She is the incomparable
model of how life should be welcomed and cared for.
How willingly will she hasten to our aid for our families
when we need her! With what love will she refresh us,
and with what strength sustain us! So we individually,
and also collectively as a family, should trust Our Lady
to lead us to Christ and help us in our daily struggles.
We come to knock at the door of Mary’s house. She
will open it and let us in and will show us her Son. But
F will ask us to F “Do whatever he tells you!”

Divine Mercy Stained Glass Window
In November, 2014 a group of Mary Queen parishioners
requested and received approval for a community
sponsored full sized stained glass window of the Divine
Mercy Image.
The window is to be located in the front of the Church
opposite the St. Ann’s Room. If you would like to
contribute to this community sponsorship, please contact
George Rodgers in the church office at 281-482-1391
with your contribution amount. For questions, you may
contact Deacon Paul Robison at 713-416-1585.
Jesus said to St. Faustina, “I desire that this image be
venerated, first in your chapel, and then throughout
the world (Diary, 470).”

2015 “Year of the Family”
Parish Survey
The Mary Queen Pastoral Council would like to hear
from you regarding our parish theme "Year of the
Family". Please take a moment to fill out our survey and
let us know what we are doing well, what you would like
to see changed or what you would like to see
implemented in regards to our parish family. The survey
may be found on the Mary Queen website at
www.maryqueencatholicchurch.org, in the church
narthex or in the parish center. Please return your
survey by Monday, May 18, 2015.
Neophytes
We have followed the catechumens in our parish as they
went through the process with the various rites and
dismissals. We watched them be sent to the cathedral for
election and come back called the “elect.” Now, after they
have completed their initiation, they are called
“neophytes.” The word means a beginner or novice. They
are just beginning their journey as fully initiated members
of our Catholic community. We share their joy and offer
them our support and prayers.
