Almighty God, we are reminded through your servant St. Cyprian, of your Spirit always within us and Your continued presence in us, and of our oneness with You and the Church.

Amen!

May Jesus Christ, the Savior of the world and the way to eternal life be with you!

The season of Easter is quickly coming to an end. Next Sunday, the universal Church will celebrate Pentecost Sunday, the birthday of the Church. In the meantime, we continue to reflect on the reason for the season of Easter and to offer praise and thanks to Jesus Christ for his selfless act of love for all believers.

We continue to assess our parish property by examining areas most in need of attention, from the roof to utilities, to landscaping. We are now looking into how to utilize our parish school. Your support, both in prayer and financial assistance, is greatly needed and appreciated.

The Archdiocese of Philadelphia celebrates with joy the ordination of seven men this weekend. Among the seven is Father Alex Cross. We were blessed to have him as our seminarian for one year. We ask God’s blessing upon him and his ministry as a priest for the Archdiocese of Philadelphia. Ad miltos annos Father Cross!

Our readings for today’s Mass shared the story of the apostles along with the Blessed Mother Mary returning to the upper room and gathered in prayer. Little did they know the Holy Spirit would eventually come to them and empower them to share their prayers and proclamations of Jesus’s word with others. God gave us the Son, and now Jesus gives us the apostles to lead us through word and action. May we listen to Jesus’ voice, pray in his presence, and be led by the Holy Spirit to fulfill Jesus’ mission.

Peace and Blessings,
Msgr. Dr. Britto
