Jesus has not left us. He goes into the cloud of glory, but He remains with us on earth. This He does by His real presence in the Eucharist. He is also with us in other ways. He is within us and in others if we are in the state of grace. He is with us in His words of the Sacred Scripture. Before His bodily departure, He commanded His disciples to go into the whole world and teach all nations about Him. We are still working on that enormous task. We will not give up.

Mother’s Day
A Mother loves right from the start.
She holds her baby close to her heart.
The bond that grows will never falter.
Her love is so strong it will never alter.
A Mother gives never ending Love.
She never feels that she has given enough.
For you she will always do her best.
Constantly working there’s no time to rest.
A Mother is there when things go wrong.
A hug and a kiss to help us along.
Always there when we need her near.
Gently wipes our eyes when we shed a tear.
So on this day shower your Mother with Love.
Gifts and presents are nice but that is not enough.
Give your Mother a day to have some peace of mind.
Be gentle, be good, be helpful, be kind.
Happy Mother’s Day!
By Carol Matthew
A special blessing will be given to all the mother’s at Mass this Sunday.

Jesus: Family man
Though he was suffering greatly, one of Jesus’ last thoughts on the cross was of his mother. He asked John to care for her after his death. He knew that family is a great gift.
