Basilica Shrine of Saint Mary – April 23 and April 24, 2016
Fifth Sunday of Easter
Liturgies and Paraliturgies
Including Mass Intentions
Pastor’s Corner
My Dear Friends,
This weekend, Catholic Christians celebrate
the 5th Sunday of Easter. Jesus tells his
disciples, before he ascended into heaven, “I
give you a new commandment: love one
another. As I have loved you, so you also
should love one another. This is how all will
know that you are
my disciples, if
you have love for one another” (John 13: 34
-35). To “love” someone means that you
wish them the very best.
Many thanks to all who helped with the
Azalea Festival parking fundraiser! On that
day, our parish hosted 360 Hispanic youth
for a diocesan retreat! Needless to say, the
campus was buzzing that day!
This weekend, we welcome everyone to Sr. Isaac’s Yard Sale.

Carolina Catholic
For our second April 2016 show, we will speak with Debbie Kotas, a

adversities that would have derailed anyone's faith journey. Instead,
through these trials, Debbie found great strength and comfort in her
Catholic faith.
This show will air on Wilmington Catholic Radio on stations 91.7 FM,

National Prevent Child Abuse Month
Did you know that when a person is assaulted as a child, he or she
may wait years or decades to tell another person about it? The reasons
for this vary. Victims may want to deny the fact that someone they
trusted could do this to them; they may want to just put the abuse
behind them and move forward. They may believe that they caused
the assault by their behavior; or they may fear how other people will
react to the truth. For more information on learning how you can help
ensure the safety of children and how to help them when they do not
feel safe, call 1-800- CHILDREN (1-800-244-53736).You may also
call: The Diocese of Raleigh Office of Child and Youth Protection at
1-866-535-7233 or email safe@raldioc.org - See more at: dioceseofraleigh.org

Sister Isaac—Office of Social Ministry
Fifth Sunday of Eater
St. Mary Social Ministry/Tileston Outreach
We are now entering into the second half of this joyous season of Easter.
Our Scripture readings give us an account of the beginnings of our
Church Community and Jesus comes and goes among his disciples,
reassuring them all that He is what He said He was – the Son of God the
Father who has come to show us His Father’s love and concern for all
humankind.
While we are waiting for the full experience of eternal life, Jesus
reminds His followers that we have some work to do to bring forth the
Kingdom of peace and justice. It is all about living out the spiritual and
corporal works of mercy. Each one of us is challenged to do this right
here, right now – wherever we find ourselves “planted”. Jesus words to
us ring clear and loud in the Gospel message today. “I give you a new
commandment: love one another. As I have loved you so you also
should love one another.” This is a tall order. How am I responding to
the call?
Special Need for the Week:
Our semi-annual Yard Sale is taking place this weekend. Perhaps you
might find the “treasure” you have been looking for right in the basement of Tileston. And the profit we make helps
us in our outreach towards those in need.
RCIA
We continue to deepen our commitment to our
Church and when we gather for the last time we
will consider the various ministries offered to us
to get involved in the Community.
