Page Two Saint Agnes May 24, 2015 This weekend we celebrate Pentecost and recall the tremendous gift of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon the Church. At the Second Vatican Council in the Decree on the Church’s Missionary Activity the fathers reminded us that “On the day of Pentecost, however, (the Holy Spirit) came down on the disciples that he might remain with them forever; on that day the Church was openly displayed to the crowds and the spread of the Gospel among the nations, through preaching, was begun.” Our celebration today is an annual reminder that the spread of the Gospel message begun by the Apostles so long ago continues in and through the Church today. We must make it our mission to carry on this essential work of the Church. Pentecost Sunday May 24, 2015 There are different kinds of spiritual gifts but the same Spirit.- 1 Corinthians 12:4 Monday, May 25 7:30 am †Maria & Manuel Cileu †Santos & Jose Goncalves Tuesday, May 26 5:30 pm †Horacio, Joao, & Ligia Tabiu Wednesday, May 27 7:30 am †Bridget & Matthew Whelan Thursday, May 28 5:30 pm †Alvaro Ferreira †Norberta Teixeira Saturday, May 30 4:30 pm †Herbert D.

Friday, May 29 7:30 am This weekend we also celebrate Memorial Day and remember and express our gratitude for those who have served our nation in the military. I offer for your reflection a brief passage from a presentation that Pope John Paul made to a gathering of military chaplains. In his talk he reminded them that: “The Catholic Church's respect and concern for those involved in military service is clearly expressed in the Second Vatican Council's Pastoral Constitution Gaudium etSpes. There we read: ‘Those... who are dedicated to the service of their country and are members of armed forces should regard themselves as ministering to the security and freedom of their peoples, and while they are performing this duty in the right manner they are genuinely contributing to the establishment of peace’.” †Maria A.
