Baptisms for infants to six year olds are celebrated on the 3rd
Saturday during mass, by appointment only. Both parents and
godparents must attend a baptism class, please come by the Parish
Office or call 399-6897. This class is the last Monday (excluding
holidays) of the month at the parish life center suite 110 on

they become engaged because at least six months is ordinarily

one party must be a registered , participating member of the

journey as a fully active Catholic.

With Mother’s Day and Father’s Day right around the corner,
we here at St. Anthony’s have a unique opportunity this year
to do something special. As you know we are in the process of
building our future home, and we have made arrangements to
include mementos (tiny items, like a small photo, or a hand
written prayer or maybe a holy card) which will be placed in
the concrete of the foundation. The item must fit in the small
envelope which will be available in the lobby after the Mass.
WE NEED BOTH MOTHER’S and FATHER’S DAY
mementos by May 10th. YOU ONLY HAVE ONE WEEK
TO GET THIS IN.
(No Ashes)
Blessings and Thanks

Forgiveness at Mass
Fifth Sunday of Easter
Paul Turner
For many non-churchgoers, Easter ended weeks ago. But
the Easter season remains with us throughout the weeks
until we celebrate the birthday of the church at Pentecost.
We have an opportunity for Easter reflection and
celebration for several Sundays, so if you feel Easter passed
you by, fear not.
Jesus tells us in John's Gospel this Sunday that he is the
vine and we are the branches. We gain nourishment from
the vine, and by staying firm and strong, we bear much
fruit. Whereas Lent was a time of preparation for the Easter
mysteries, this season of Easter is a time to offer the
spiritual fruits resulting from our prayer, fasting, and
penance. Of course, the nourishment that sustained us in
Lent continues into Easter and throughout the year.
Don't give up on Easter too soon. Stay connected to the vine
and all the other branches that grow from it. They are
fellow Christians trying to testify to the kingdom of God by
their lives. Allow yourself to get caught up in the
celebration of the risen Lord. Be nourished and grow into
the wonderful creation God has made.
St. Sharbel, Maronite Catholic Church, invites you
to attend TOGETHER PRAYING FOR PEACE
IN THE MIDDLE EAST. Please join all Eastern
Churches in Christ to pray for Peace in the
presence of religious & dignitaries of the City of
Las Vegas, on Friday May 15th 7pm at St. Shaebel

The sacrament of reconciliation is
the church’s special celebration of
pardon, but forgiveness of sins is also
one of the fruits of the Mass. There
are many moments throughout the
Eucharistic celebration when the texts and gestures of
the Mass express the community’s sorrow for sins.
We begin with the penitential act, which may
include striking the breast in a simple gesture of
sorrow. The presider then asks that God have mercy on
us and forgive our sins. On Sundays this penitential
rite may be replaced with a sprinkling rite, signifying
our purification. While singing the Glory to God and
the Lamb of God, we ask the One who takes away the
sins of the world to have mercy on us. When the
deacon or priest kisses the Gospel, he prays that its
words may wipe away our sins. While washing his
hands, the priest asks God to wash away his iniquity
and cleanse him of sin. During the Lord’s Prayer we
all ask God to forgive us our sins.
And, of course, the sharing of communion itself
forgives sins (Catechism of the Catholic Church 139394). The main purposes of Mass are to express thanks
and praise to God and to sanctify the assembly through
holy communion. But one of the other results is the
forgiveness of sins.
The faithful who are aware of grave sin should
celebrate the sacrament of reconciliation before
presenting themselves for communion. Reconciliation
is advised for all, no matter how light our sins may be.
But the faithful struggling with ordinary sinful lives
may find assurance that their participation at Mass will
grant forgiveness through word, gesture and
sacrament.
