PRAYER REFLECTION
Feast of Corpus Christi “They all ate and were satisfied. And when
the leftover fragments were picked up, they filled twelve wicker baskets.” LUKE 9:17
The story of the Loaves and Fishes shows us that when we share
what we have, even if it doesn’t seem like that much, miracles can
happen! Do not think that your gift is too small or insignificant! God
blesses all the gifts we offer and makes them wondrous.
PRIVATE RECONCILIATION—every day, one hour before each
Mass. Wednesdays 6:30pm—8:30pm. Thursdays after morning
Mass until 9:30am.
EUCHARISTIC ADORATION on Thursdays in the chapel begins after 8am Mass and concludes with Rosary and Benediction at
8pm.
THE ROSARY is prayed ½ hour before Mass.
Feast Day for the week
May 31—The Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary
This is a fairly late feast, going back only to the 13th or 14th century.
It was established widely throughout the Church to pray for unity.
The present date of celebration was set in 1969 in order to follow the
Annunciation of the Lord (March 25) and precede the Nativity of
John the Baptist (June 24).
Like most feasts of Mary, it is closely connected with Jesus and his
saving work. The more visible actors in the visitation drama (see
Luke 1:39-45) are Mary and Elizabeth. However, Jesus and John the
Baptist steal the scene in a hidden way. Jesus makes John leap with
joy—the joy of messianic salvation. Elizabeth, in turn, is filled with
the Holy Spirit and addresses words of praise to Mary—words that
echo down through the ages.
It is helpful to recall that we do not have a journalist’s account of this
meeting. Rather, Luke, speaking for the Church, gives a prayerful
poet’s rendition of the scene. Elizabeth’s praise of Mary as “the
mother of my Lord” can be viewed as the earliest Church’s devotion
to Mary. As with all authentic devotion to Mary, Elizabeth’s (the
Church’s) words first praise God for what God has done to Mary.
Only secondly does she praise Mary for trusting God’s words.
Then comes the Magnificat (Luke 1:46-55). Here Mary herself (like
the Church) traces all her greatness to God.

Glass containers are not to be placed on or at any gravesite.
Urns and containers that are not a part of the monument, are not to
be placed on the grass around the monuments or markers, or to be
placed in such a manner that they are apt to fall on the grass and
impede mowing. No metal stakes, fences or wire fasteners are to be
put into the ground.
It is preferred that there be no flower beds at the gravesite, but if
there are, they must be trimmed and maintained by the family. If not,
they will be removed. Perpetual Care of the Cemetery does not
include the care of individual lots.
Do not drive or park on the grass at any time.

Pastoral Council Column
Assault on the Family
Cardinal Sarah is the prefect for the Congregation of Divine Worship
and the Sacraments. He was the keynote speaker at the annual
prayer breakfast in Washington, D.C., where he made the following
observations:
“The battle to preserve the roots of mankind is perhaps the greatest
challenge our world has faced since its origins. Do not be afraid to
proclaim the truth with love, especially about marriage according to
God’s plans. In the words of St. Catherine of Siena, ‘proclaim the
truth and do not be silent through fear.’
“The family is natural preparation and anticipation of the communion that is possible when we are united with God…this is why the
devil is so intent on destroying the family. If the family is destroyed,
we lose our God-given anthropological foundations and so find it
more difficult to welcome the saving good news of Jesus Christ:
self-giving, fruitful love.
“The rupture of the foundational relationships of someone’s life—
through separation, divorce, or distorted impositions of the family,
such as cohabitation or same sex unions—is a deep wound that
closes the heart to self-giving love [unto] death, and even leads to
cynicism and despair.
“These situations cause damage to the little children through inflicting upon them a deep existential doubt about love. They are a
scandal—a stumbling block—that prevent the most vulnerable from
believing in such love, and a crushing burden that can prevent
them from opening to the healing power of the Gospel.
“Advanced societies, including, I regret, this nation, have done and
continue to do everything possible to legalize such situations. But
this can never be a truthful solution. It is like putting bandages on
the infected wound. It will continue to poison the body until antibiotics are taken.
“Sadly, the advent of artificial reproductive technologies, surrogacy,
so-called homosexual ‘marriage,’ and other evils of gender ideology, will inflict even more wounds in the midst of generations we live
with.”
