Mental Health Ministry Network For information about the San Diego Diocesan Mental Health Ministry Network visit Ushers Needed - Welcome one another, then, as Christ welcomed you, for the glory of God. Romans 15:7. Hospitality meant something to Jesus, it was more than common custom. Hospitality showed respect for the visitor, it demonstrated the humility of the host. It avoided the temptation to sneer at the less fortunate or the less moral. Do you have the heart of an Usher? It is not just taking up the collection, it is being part of a team here at the Mission that enjoys serving. Feel called to this ministry? Call Cecil Boyd (619) or the Parish Office to start helping at your favorite Mass. Mission Young Adults Join the Mission Young Adult Group and grow deeper in your faith and friendships!

5 BELIEVING IN JESUS CHRIST Throughout the Easter season, all three of the Sunday readings are taken from the New Testament the Christian scriptures. Together they explore what it means to believe in Jesus as the Christ, the One who fulfilled the prophecies of the Jewish scriptures. Today s selections refer to our human weakness, yet they emphasize the forgiveness and peace that are available to those who put their faith in Jesus Christ the righteous one (1 John 2:2). In the Acts of the Apostles Peter invites everyone to repent, therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be wiped away (Acts 3:19). The First Letter of John calls Jesus Christ expiation for our sins (1 John 2:2). Finally, in the Gospel Jesus greets the disciples with Peace and urges them to preach repentance, for the forgiveness of sins (Luke 24:47). Copyright J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.
