Lord God Almighty, Early in the morning our song shall rise to Thee. In The Words of His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI Pastor’s Notes JESUS IS LORD! On Pentecost "The Whole Church Is Only One Great Movement" Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, Last weekend we celebrated the Solemnity of Pentecost when the Holy Spirit descended on the Church and gave it new birth. As we look to the first Christian Community recorded in the Acts of the Apostles, we read that the first fruits of Pentecost in the infant Church were unity and community. The Holy Spirit brings various peoples together to make them one mind and one heart (Acts 4). Let us always commit to pray daily to the Holy Spirit that as the parish community of St. Raphael- Holy Angels we may be united as the one body of Christ that we are called to be. COME, HOLY SPIRIT! I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your prayers, cards and expressions of love and support as I celebrated my tenth anniversary of ordination to the priesthood on the Vigil of Pentecost. It is awesome to be a priest, and I am grateful to God that he has called me to serve here at St. Raphael-Holy Angels. You are such a blessing to my life. I would like to say a special “thank you” to the anniversary committee who work so hard on planning the Mass and reception, and to the wonderful combined music ministry of St. Raphael-Holy Angels who led us in Spirit-filled worship during the Mass. Words cannot properly express my gratitude. I humbly ask for your continued prayers that I may have the grace to unite myself more closely with the High Priest Jesus Christ. COME, HOLY SPIRIT! Speaking of gratitude and priesthood, I have been notified by Bishop John Smith that he has assigned Father Leandro Della Cruz as Adjunct Priest to serve the people of St. Raphael-Holy Angels. Father Della Cruz will arrive on June 16, 2006 to begin his new assignment. He presently is serving as Adjunct Priest at St. Mary of the Lake in Lakewood. I am grateful to Bishop Smith for recognizing our need and assigning another priest to minister at our parish. Our parish community also welcomes Mr. John Large, a seminarian for the Diocese of Trenton, who has been assigned for the summer to our parish. John has just completed his first year of theology at Immaculate Conception Seminary and is scheduled for ordination to the priesthood in 2009. COME, HOLY SPIRIT! Finally I would like to congratulate our students who graduated from St. Raphael School this past Friday evening. They are an outstanding group of young men and women who came together from various backgrounds and schools and united to form a close knit group of friends in our school community… just like the first community did at Pentecost! Let us pray that the Lord richly blesses them as they enter high school. COME, HOLY SPIRIT! In Jesus and Mary, Father Jeff Kegley Pastor Dear Brothers and Sisters! The solemnity of Pentecost invites us to go back to the origins of the Church, which, as the Second Vatican Council affirmed, "by the outpouring of the Spirit, was made manifest" ("Lumen Gentium," No. 2). At Pentecost, the Church was manifested one, holy, catholic and apostolic; it was manifested missionary, with the gift of speaking all the languages of the world, as the good news of the love of God is meant for all peoples. “The Church, which the Spirit guides in the way of all truth and which he unified in communion and in works of ministry, he both equips and directs with hierarchical and charismatic gifts and adorns with his fruits" (ibid. 4). Among the realities aroused by the Spirit in the Church are the ecclesial movements and communities, with which yesterday I had the joy of meeting in this square, in a great world gathering. The whole Church, as Pope John Paul II liked to say, is only one great movement, animated by the Holy Spirit, a river that goes through history to water it with the grace of God and to make her life fruitful in goodness, beauty, justice and peace. I am happy to greet all the English-speaking pilgrims and visitors. Today we celebrate the great solemnity of Pentecost, when the risen Lord filled the Church with the gift of his Holy Spirit to bring peace and joy to all mankind. Let us open our hearts to this great gift, so that we may continue to teach the Gospel and do the Lord's work in today's world. Upon all of you I invoke God's blessings and wish you a holy and happy time in Rome!
