San Pedro Catholic Church May 28th & May 29th, 2016 Fed By The Lord Jesus words This is my body and This cup is the new covenant in my blood were only part of his table blessing. Jesus twice said: Do this in remembrance of me (1 Corinthians 11:24, 25). This is the good news of today s solemnity. Like the five thousand hungry souls, we are fed by our Lord. This is not food that satisfies for only a short time, until the next meal. It is food that lasts and changes us. It is food for sharing in much the same way as Melchizedek did when he brought bread and wine to the returning Abraham. As children of God s reign, we are blessed to be able to receive and share God s gift. And we do so in the way most appropriate to our state in life as parents, children, husbands, wives, or religious. READINGS FOR THE WEEK..

Marcellinus & Peter Friday: The Most Sacred Heart of Jesus Saturday: The Immaculate Heart of the Blessed First Saturday TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION Once the early Christians realized that Christ s coming in glory was delayed, there was a need to provide for the governance and everyday needs of the church. The various orders within the church carried forward the apostles ministry, but also allowed for a measure of creativity. The sacrament we call holy orders evolved somewhat slowly. At first, it made sense for Christians to use the forms they knew, adapting them to new situations. Synagogues, for example, were administered by a board of elders, translated into Greek as presbyteros. We know from the Acts of the Apostles that a system of presbyters was a normal feature of church life from earliest days. They stood in relationship to another order, that of overseers, translated into Greek as episkopos, giving us the English bishops. The bishop was the shepherd, the faithful tender of the flock, one who offered the Eucharist, forgave sins, and maintained the bond of charity. Just as the deacons were the chief advisers for the charitable life of the church, so were the presbyters meant to advise the bishop on the spiritual life of the faithful. They were trusted advisers at first, not pastors or priests as we understand those terms today. FAITH IS Faith is not merely praying upon our knees at night; Faith is not merely straying through darkness into light...faith is the brave endeavor, The splendid enterprise, The strength to serve, whatever Conditions may arise.

San Pedro Catholic Church May 28th & May 29th, 2016 In October 2006, the Prayer Shawl Ministry was formed at San Pedro. Members of this ministry lovingly donate their time and talents by creating hand-knitted and crocheted shawls. Over the centuries, shawls have come to symbolize shelter, peace, and spiritual sustenance. Whether they are called Prayer Shawls, Comfort Shawls, Peace Shawls or Mantles; the shawl maker begins with prayers and blessings for the recipient. The intentions are continued throughout the creation of the shawl. Upon completion a final blessing is offered before the shawl is sent on its way. The blessing ripples from person-to-person, with both the giver and receiver feeling the unconditional embrace of a sheltering God! Contact Carolyn Hanford at 305 394-8887 if you are interested in the prayer shawl ministry or if you know of anyone who is in need of a shawl. We also have lap blankets and a limited supply of baby blankets. There is never a charge for the shawls or blankets. Did you know you can designate the parish as beneficiary on your stocks and bank accounts? It s called a transfer on death designation for stocks, and a payable on death designation for financial institution accounts. By naming our parish as beneficiary, you ll provide lasting financial support and possibly quality for tax benefits as well. For more information, contact the rectory or call the Office of Planned Giving @ 305.762.1110 We d Like To Thank Our SPONSORS for your support of the 2016 ART UNDER THE OAKS EVENT!
