Congratulations to our First Communicants! This weekend is a great
celebration of being loved by God,
growing in maturity to understand
the difference between bread and the
Eucharist and continuing initiation
membership into the Church! It’s
very exciting and the long anticipated joy becomes reality this weekend! Our whole parish delights in
this great accomplishment! Special
thank you to our parents for bringing
their children to church and teaching
the faith at home and to our school
teachers and faith formation catechists who assist the parents in reiterating what is taught in the home.
We are grateful for your example to
help raise young people to be the
next leaders in the Church.
Communion with God is a great gift
to be appreciated. The Gospel proclaims that Jesus is the vine and his
followers are the branches showing
our connectedness (communion)
with Jesus. We abide in God and
God remains with us. This image
symbolizes a loving relationship between Jesus and those he nurtures.
The vine is the sign of our life and
growth in the Body of Christ. We
also remember that the vine depicts
the Church as assembly of people
who are given life and grow together
from the same source – Jesus Christ.
The vine is a reminder that we also
must bear fruit and blossom to reveal
the life that we have been given in
Christ.
May we continue to rely on our communion with God and one another to
reveal the love of God to all. Thank
you all for making our parish great!
God bless you,
Father Michael Kaluza
