3 FROM THE PASTOR S DESK Dear Parishioners and Friends of St. Francis de Sales Parish, We are in that season of the year when many students are graduating from their schools and moving on to a new and exciting phase of life. I would like to congratulate all parish members graduating from college and high school. You should be proud of your accomplishments! All the best as you step into the future! I offer special congratulations to the children of our parish graduating from grade school. Fifteen students will be graduating from our own Saint Francis de Sales Parish School on May 28! High school, here we come! I would also like to congratulate six members of our Hispanic community who graduated from the Saint Clare Center of Cardinal Stritch University on May 20 with certificates in lay ministry. They attended classes Saint Clare Center every other Saturday for two years in order to improve their pastoral knowledge and skills to aid them in their work in their volunteer ministries. Congratulations! Today we celebrate the Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity - it is a celebration of the great mystery of God in our lives. Our God as revealed to us in Scripture is Father, Son and Spirit: one God, three persons. We learn from the Sacred Scriptures that within God s very self there is a relationship of love between Father, Son and Holy Spirit, a relationship so profound and so vast that it cannot be contained. That love engulfs and penetrates every aspect of our lives. In the moment of our baptism, these words are spoken: I baptize you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. We come into this world knowing no one, and we are alone and vulnerable in many ways. But in the moment of baptism, the God of love reaches out to us, and invites us into the life of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, showing us that we are not alone, that we are profoundly loved, and giving us the grace to be instruments of love and compassion in this world. The Scriptures teach us that God s love is without limits and that he holds nothing back from us. He sent his only Son, not to condemn us but to give us eternal life. And the Son held nothing back; he loved us to the full extent and died to release us from our slavery to sin. In is resurrection we have new life. The Holy Spirit transforms us into instruments of God s love in this world. May that love be revealed in our works of mercy! God s Blessings, Fr. Jim Schuerman Queridos Miembros de la Parroquia de San Francisco de Sales, Durante esta estación del anno, muchas personas celebran sus graduaciones. Yo quisiera felicitar a todos los miembros de nuestra parroquia graduando de las universidades y las escuelas secundarias. Ustedes deben de estar muy orgullosos de su éxito. Les deseo un futuro lleno de bendiciones! Felicidades a los graduando de las escuelas primarias. Quince estudiantes graduarán de nuestra escuela, St. Francis de Sales Parish School el 28 de mayo. También, quisiera felicitar a seis personas de nuestra comunidad hispana que han graduado del Centro de Santa Clara de la Universidad de Cardinal Stritch el 20 de mayo. Han recibido certificados en el ministerio laico. Estos han asistido clases en el Instituto de Santa Clara dos veces por mes por dos años, recibiendo enseñanzas para ayudarles en sus ministerios voluntarios. Felicidades! Hoy celebramos la Solemnidad de la Santísima Trinidad. Es la celebración del gran misterio de nuestro Dios. Dios nos reveló por medio de las Santas Escrituras, que Él es un solo Dios con tres personas. Entre el Padre, el Hijo y el Espíritu Santo, hay una relación de amor tan profundo y tan grande que no tiene límites. Este amor nos afecta en cada dimensión de nuestras vidas. En el momento de nuestro bautismo, recibimos el agua en la frente, y el ministro dice, Yo te bautizo en el nombre del Padre, del Hijo, y del Espíritu Santo. Nacimos pequeños y vulnerables, pero en el momento de nuestro bautismo, Dios nos invita a compartir su amor. Dios ama a su Hijo, y el Hijo ama a su Padre, y el amor entre los dos se llama el Espíritu Santo. En el bautismo, Dios nos da el don del Espíritu Santo, el don de un amor profundísimo y sin límites. El Espíritu nos da la gracia para ser instrumentos de su amor en este mundo. Las Escrituras nos enseñan que Dios nos amó tanto que envió su propio Hijo al mundo, no para condenarnos sino para dar nos nueva vida. El amor del Padre no tiene límites. El Hijo, Jesucristo nos amó tanto que murió en la cruz para salvarnos de nuestros pecados. El amor del Hijo no tiene límites. El Espíritu santo, que nos anima, es el amor entre el Padre y el Hijo, un amor que nos transforma y nos hace instrumentos de la compasión de Dios en esta vida. Qué compartamos siempre el amor de Dios con nuestros hermanos por medio de nuestras obras de misericordia! Que Dios los bendiga, Padre Jim Schuerman
