6th Sunday of Easter
In the Holy Spirit we have a helper and a comforter who makes Jesus present in each generation to every person in their individual situation.
We will receive the Lord’s Spirit and grow in our awareness of Jesus only if we request it in prayer.

Summer Masses:  All Masses will be at the church again this summer to give set up crews a well deserved break!

Joke
Ms. Terri asked her Sunday school class to draw pictures of their favourite bible stories.
She was puzzled by Kyle’s picture, which showed four people on an airplane, so she asked him which story it was meant to represent.
“The Flight to Egypt”, was his reply.
Pointing at each figure, Ms Terri said, “That must be Mary, Joseph, and Baby Jesus.  But who’s the fourth person?
“Oh, that’s Pontius, the pilot!”
