Dear Parishioners and Friends of Ascension,

Last Saturday evening, May 20th, we had a wonderful

celebration at the 6:15p.m. Mass, celebrated by

Bishop Josue Iriondo. (Bishop Iriondo is a retired

auxiliary bishop of New York and the former director

of the Charismatic Center). On that evening we

celebrated the 40th anniversary of our parish

charismatic prayer group. This prayer group has met

on a weekly basis, without fail, for the past 40 years.

During these 40 years they have faithfully turned to

the Holy Spirit to be their help and their guide.

Through the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, the leaders

of the prayer group have been empowered by God’s

Spirit to teach, to preach, and to inspire. Over the

course of these 40 years, so many people have come

into the Catholic Church, and have come to know

Christ and the Spirit through the Charismatic Renewal.

Our prayer group continues to place themselves at the

service of others. They don't tire in their work

because the Holy Spirit continues to breathe new life

into them and renew them on a regular basis. A special

word of congratulations and thanks to Aurora

Sanchez, and to the many who have had leadership

roles in the prayer group over these many years, and to

those who come and pray on a regular basis. The Holy

Spirit is always young and always new. How

appropriate to have this celebration during the Easter

Season. I know that the Prayer Group will continue to

keep all of us here at Ascension, as well as our special

intentions in their prayers.

This weekend, I would also like to congratulate Fr.

Rafferty. Tomorrow, May 29th, Father Rafferty

celebrates his fifty first anniversary to the Priesthood.

Fr. Rafferty was ordained on, May 29th, in 1966, by

Francis Cardinal Spellman, the then Archbishop of

New York.

Peace,

Fr. Kearney

PASTOR’S LETTER NOTAS DEL PASTOR

Queridos Feligreses y Amigos de la Ascensión,

El sábado pasado en la tarde, 20 de mayo, tuvimos una

maravillosa celebración en la misa de las 6:15,

presidida por el obispo Josu Iriondo (el obispo Iriondo

es un obispo auxiliar retirado de Nueva York y el

director anterior del Centro Carismático). Esa noche

celebramos el 40 aniversario del grupo de oración

carismático de nuestra parroquia. Este grupo de

oración se ha reunido regularmente cada semana, sin

falta, durante los últimos 40 años. Durante estos 40

años ellos fielmente se han apoyado en el Espíritu

Santo que ha sido su guía y su ayuda. A través del

derrame del Espíritu Santo los dirigentes del grupo de

oración se han fortalecido por el Espíritu de Dios para

enseñar, predicar e inspirar. Durante el curso de estos

40 años, tantas personas se han hecho miembros de la

iglesia católica y han llegado a conocer a Cristo y al

Espíritu Santo a través de la Renovación Carismática.

Nuestro grupo de oración continúa poniéndose al

servicio de otros. No se cansan porque el Espíritu

Santo continúa respirando nueva vida en ellos y

renovándolos regularmente. Una palabra especial de

felicidades y gracias a Aurora Sánchez y a los muchos

que han tenido el papel de dirigentes en el grupo de

oración durante todos estos años y a aquellos que

vienen y oran regularmente. El Espíritu Santo siempre

es joven y siempre es nuevo. Fue muy apropiado

tener esta celebración durante la temporada de Pascua.

Yo sé que el grupo de oración continuará

manteniéndonos a todos los de aquí de la Ascensión al

igual que a nuestras intenciones especiales en sus

oraciones.

Este fin de semana también me gustaría felicitar al

Padre Rafferty. Mañana, 29 de mayo, el Padre

Rafferty celebra su cincuenta y un aniversario al

sacerdocio. El Padre Rafferty fue ordenado el 29 de

mayo del 1966 por el Cardenal Francis Spellman, el

entonces Arzobispo de Nueva York.

Paz,

Padre Kearney
