SANCTUARY VOTIVE CANDLE

BLESSED MOTHER ALTAR
Candle I
In memory of Helen Ostrokolowicz (4th anniversary)
Given by Edward and Lorraine Ostrokolowicz
FIFTH SUNDAY OF EASTER
May 3, 2015
Let us love not in word or speech but in deed and truth.
-I John 3:18
BEARING FRUIT
“Children, let us love not in word or speech but
in deed and truth.” John’s words come to us on
this day when the Gospel passage presents us with
the great image of the vine and the branches. Jesus uses the image as a warning to those who have
begun to distance themselves from the way of the Lord. One of
the ways this happens is when we love God and others “in
word or speech” instead of “in deed and truth.” What does it
mean for us to “remain in Christ”? In an extension of the metaphor, the Lord gives us an example. If we remain in him, we
will bear much fruit. As the branches, we draw strength from
Christ who is the vine. This strength enables us to bear fruit—
to do the work of true discipleship.
This week’s second collection
is for Parish Obligation to the Diocese.
Next weekend’s second collection is designated
for Higher Utility and Energy and Costs.

PIĄTA NIEDZIELA WIELKANOCNA

Obraz winnego krzewu i latorośli pozwala
odkryć zasady przynależności do Chrystusa.
Jesteśmy wszczepieni w Chrystusa; należymy do
Niego jak gałązka należy do drzewa. Z Niego, jak
ze źródła, czerpiemy życiodajne soki. Trwać
w Jezusie to brać od Niego życie. Wtedy nasze życie zostaje
przemienione, uświęcone i zaczyna przynosić owoc.
Dzisiejsza druga kolekta jest przeznaczona
na Zobowiązania Diecezjalne.
Druga kolekta w przyszła niedzielę będzie przeznaczana
na pokrycie kosztów utrzymania i energii.
PIERWSZA KOMUNIA ŚWIĘTA
Dzisiejsza niedziela, to wielkie święto dla całej wspólnoty
parafialnej. Po wielu miesiącach przygotowań dwadzieścioro dzieci

i modlimy się, żeby to niesamowite, mistyczne spotkanie przerodziło
się w trwającą całe życie przyjaźń, która pozwoli im również cieszyć
się wieczna radością w niebie. Oto imiona tych, którzy dziś przeżyją
po raz pierwszy w pełny sposób ofiarę Mszy św.: Alexandra Bergeron,
Dale Boudreau, Lucas Boynton, Nicole Brzozowska, Maya Chojnicki,
