VOICES OF
CHILDREN: A mother was teaching her three-year-old the Lord's Prayer.
For several evenings at bedtime,the child repeated it after the
mother. Then one night the child was ready to solo. The mother
listened with pride to the carefully enunciated words, right up to
the end. "And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us some e-mail."
TRINITY SUNDAY: As
we celebrate Trinity Sunday this weekend we are called to remember
that one of the greatest bonds of love for all humanity comes to us
through the Blessed Trinity! The Trinity (God the Father, God the
Son, and God the Holy Spirit) is a mystery of faith in the strict
sense. The Catechism mentions that the mystery of the Most Holy
Trinity is the central mystery of the Christian faith and life. It is
a mystery that cannot be understood by reason alone or even to the
Jewish religion before the birth of Gods Son Jesus and the
sending of Holy Spirit. God alone reveals himself as Father, Son, and
Holy Spirit. Think of the Blessed Trinity when you make the sign of
the cross.
ADORATION OF THE
BLESSED SACRAMENT: Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament is held
throughout the year every Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday from 6 am
to 9 pm at St. Johns Church Adoration Chape downstairs.
Everyone is invited to spend some quiet time with Jesus any time
during these hours. For more information about spending a special
hour with Jesus weekly, or becoming a substitute, please call
561-5083 or email St. Johns Church, Plattsburgh at Sjohnsadoration@aol.com |
