2 Fifth Sunday of Easter Page 2 Fifth Sunday of Easter May 6, 2012 Let us love not in word or speech but in deed and truth. 1 John 3:18 BEARING FRUIT Few of us, even when we meditate on the image of the vine and branches, stop to really think about how God prunes us. For some there is the danger of thinking that we are already producing fruit for the kingdom, in deed and truth as John says, perhaps raising a family, being active in our parish, and so on. But even those branches which are bearing fruit, the Gospel tells us, can be pruned to produce still more. Today Saul, freshly pruned by his conversion, arrives in Jerusalem and meets resistance. Since he had been persecuting Christians, this was only natural. But even after he is accepted and begins to bear fruit, he meets further adversity, and his letters are filled with many accounts of how his trials pruned him to produce greater fruit for the kingdom. Like him, as long as we remain in Christ we will continue to bear fruit and, when the will of the Father determines it is time to prune us, the strength of the true vine must enable us to endure it.

4 Fifth Sunday of Easter Page 4 May - The Month Of Mary "O Mary we crown thee with blossoms today, Queen of the Angels and Queen of the May" This is a hymn that I remember from my young days when we had the May crowning and processions. Sometimes when I am driving, or when I feel happy inside, I find myself singing these few lines. One of the titles given to Our Lady in her litany is "cause of our joy". I have always felt great peace and joy when praying with Our Lady. With Mary's intercession life is more than okay. Our Catholic faith teaches us that Our Blessed Mother takes care of the church, and all her children. FIRST COMMUNION This weekend is the one I like best, because our children received their First Communion. This is the time our young people have looked forward to for a long time, as well as their mothers, fathers, grandparents, and extended families. First Communion day brings back memories to all of us, it is a day of blessing forever. Congratulations to all the children and to all who prepared them to welcome Christ in the Eucharist. I asked the children to pray for the parish on First Communion Day.I also ask you to pray for the children. God Bless, Fr.
