From the pastor…
T
his Sunday is the last Sunday during the Easter
Season before the Solemnity of Pentecost that we
celebrate next Sunday.
Jesus in his priestly prayer entrusts his disciples to
the care of the Father so that they may be one as Jesus
himself is one with the Father and share Jesus’ joy
completely. He also entrusts to us His word, the word
of truth that sets us free.

Saint Rita of Cascia
(1381 - May 22, 1457) was an
Italian Augustinian nun, widow,
and saint venerated in the Roman
Catholic Church. The Roman
Catholic Church, under the
pontificate of Pope Leo XIII
officially canonized Rita on
May 24, 1900. Her feast day is
celebrated every May 22. At her
canonization ceremony, she was
bestowed the title of Patroness of Impossible Causes while in
many pious Catholic countries, Rita came to be known
to be as patroness for abused wives and heartbroken
women. Novena prayers will be recited at Sacred Heart
Church, May 21-23, at 6:00pm and prior to the 9:00am
Mass on May 24. Saint Rita Roses will be available for
purchase after the 9:00am Mass. If there are any roses
left, they will be available after the 10:30 and noon
masses at Saint Leonard Church.
Mother’s Day Envelopes are at the entrance of the
churches. Please return them in the collection over the
next two weeks. The names of your Mothers, living
and deceased, will be placed on the altar during the
remainder of May, and they will be remembered in all
the Masses.
