REGARDS TO ST. JOSEph Joseph's parents, Jacob and Rachel, made many pilgrimages to beg God for a desired offspring.god, before long, provided con solation.on an occasion of being in the temple, Joseph's mother received an inner conviction that God heard her prayerand indeed she conceived St. Joseph.He was sanctified in the womb of his mother seven months after his conception, and the leaven of sin was destroyed in him for the whole course of life. An angel came to reveal to the happy parents secret facts concerning this child.disclosure was made to them that he would see the promised Messiah and associate with Him. The momentous day arrived. Joseph's mother gave birth to her child with ease.god fashioned him according to His own heart and spirit in order to eventually make him a worthy bridegroom for the Mother of the Divine Word.God chose from eternity Joseph to be born to protect and love His most precious treasures:our Lord Jesus Christ, the Bread of Life, and His perfect tabernacle, the Virgin Mary. W e e k l y R e f l e c t i o n MAY 16, TH SUNDAY OF EASTER We celebrate today one more step in the completion of the mission of the Son of God. Humanity had sinned at the beginning of time and fallen from the Original Innocence. God immediately began to prepare the world for the gift of eternal redemption by establishing a covenant with Noah, Abraham and Moses. He raised up various prophets and kings to further prepare His people for what was to come. And then, when the time was right, God entered our world through the Blessed Virgin Mary. Jesus, the Son of God, eventually entered into His public ministry, teaching, performing miracles, gathering the faithful to Himself, dying, rising, and then appearing to His disciples in preparation for the Ascension. The Ascension completes the mission of the Son of God, and today we honor that one definitive moment when God the Son, in His transformed and resurrected Human nature, ascends by His own power to the Father, bringing with Himself our humanity so that all humanity may ascend with Him. As we celebrate the Ascension of Jesus, we must first see all that led up to that moment and seek to unite ourselves with all of those preceding events. We must listen to the words of the patriarchs and prophets of the Old Testament. We must especially listen to the teachings of Jesus in the New Testament and embrace His words without hesitation. And we must unite ourselves with His own death, dying to sin, so that we may also share in His Resurrection. Today, we must further see the invitation we are all given to ascend with Jesus to the Father. We must understand that where Jesus has gone, we are invited to follow if we only believe, embrace, and live all that took place leading up to this glorious moment. The Ascension was the end of Jesus life on Earth but also the beginning of our sharing in the life of Heaven. As Jesus ascended, He commissioned His disciples to go forth and preach the gospel to every creature. They were to preach to all about the saving plan of God that began at the time of Adam and Eve and was completed with the Ascension. Reflect, today, upon your calling to not only share in this glorious moment of the Ascension of Jesus but also your calling to go forth and to do all you can to draw others into this new life. Reflect upon Jesus, Who also speaks to you today to invite you to bring others to that mountain. By teaching friends, family and all with whom God has entrusted to you to share the Gospel, you fulfill Christ s mission to go into the whole world to gather the scattered people into the one fold of Christ so as to ascend with Him one day into eternity.

ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY TO PRAY THE ROSARY! JOIN THE MEN OF ST. JOSEPH EVERYONE INVITED MONDAY NIGHTS, 7:00 PM IN THE ADORATION CHAPEL BEQUESTS / ESTATE GIFTS Our Parish occasionally receives bequests from grateful parishioners. These bequests from a Will can be designated for a specific use, or for the general needs of the parish. Please remember the good works of our parish in your Will. Thank you for your consideration. THE MASS No one may share the Eucharist with us unless he believes that what we teach is true, unless he is washed in the regenerang waters of bapsm for the remission of his sins, and unless he lives in accordance with the principles given us by Christ. We do not consume the eucharisc bread and wine as if it were ordinary food and drink, for we have been taught that as Jesus Christ our Savior became a man of flesh and blood by the power of the Word of God, so also the food that our flesh and blood assimilates for its nourishment becomes the flesh and blood of the incarnate Jesus by the power of his own words contained in the prayer of thanksgiving. The apostles, in their recollecons, which are called gospels, handed down to us what Jesus commanded them to do. They tell us that he took bread, gave thanks and said: Do this in memory of me. This is my body. In the same way he took the cup, he gave thanks and said: This is my blood. The Lord gave this command to them alone. Ever since then we have constantly reminded one another of these things. The rich among us help the poor and we are always united. For all that we receive we praise the Creator of the universe through his Son Jesus Christ and through the Holy Spirit. On Sunday we have a common assembly of all our members, whether they live in the city or the outlying districts. The recollecons of the apostles or the wrings of the prophets are read, as long as there is me. When the reader has finished, the president of the assembly speaks to us; he urges everyone to imitate the examples of virtue we have heard in the readings. Then we all stand up together and pray. On the conclusion of our prayer, bread and wine and water are brought forward. The president offers prayers and gives thanks to the best of his ability, and the people give assent by saying, Amen. The eucharist is distributed, everyone present communicates, and the deacons take it to those who are absent. The wealthy, if they wish, may make a contribuon, and they themselves decide the amount. The collecon is placed in the custody of the president, who uses it to help the orphans and widows and all who for any reason are in distress, whether because they are sick, in prison, or away from home. In a word, he takes care of all who are in need. We hold our common assembly on Sunday because it is the first day of the week, the day on which God put darkness and chaos to flight and created the world, and because on that same day our savior Jesus Christ rose from the dead. For he was crucified on Friday and on Sunday he appeared to his apostles and disciples and taught them the things that we have passed on for your consideraon.
