2 Our sharing for May 12 & 13: The gifts we are given are given to us to be shared with others. Church Support $3, Loose The sanctuary candle is burning this week in memory of Roy Ropson. Please keep him in your prayers. People of God, Please stop over in the Parish Center on Sunday after the 10 AM Mass and check out the Ministry Fair. This is for all ages, and those of all marital status. We ask that you prayerfully consider the gifts and talents that God has given you and how you can nurture those gifts and return them to God abundantly. We celebrate Pentecost this weekend, when the Holy Spirit was given so the message of the Gospel can be proclaimed and Jesus' mission can continue through us. The Holy Spirit was given to us in baptism - so I ask - where and how is the Spirit calling you to share those gifts and talents you were given? This Sunday we honor our High School Graduates with a special blessing at our 10 AM Mass. Please keep them in prayer as they begin the next chapter in their lives Bishop s Appeal Is Underway!
