Seventh Sunday of Easter

The Lord is king, the most high over all the earth

Mission San Jose Catholic Church was founded and established to proclaim the gospel mission of Jesus for our time and place by

becoming a faith community of God’s people. Through a commitment to prayer, study, fellowship and ministry, we strive to become a

community of hope to all around us and a living mission to the many who choose to come to Mission San Jose.

Now and at the Hour of my Death Workshop

DATE HAS CHANGED

See next bulletin for update

A Catholic funeral traditionally includes three parts: a vigil (wake) service at a funeral home, the funeral Mass in the church, and committal prayers at the cemetery. We will also cover the Catholic instructions on cremation. The priest, deacon or lay ecclesial minister who assists in planning the funeral rites will work with the family to select the most appropriate liturgical format. Now, you can preplan these rites at the parish.

This workshop will cover a review of the rites per the Order of Christian Funerals Rites Book and preplanning by selecting scripture readings and music selections for your services.

If any questions, please call Ester Perry at the Office

Mission San Jose A Moment of History ...

The Iglesia de Terrado was last described in 1758. It continued in use until the early 1760’s. The church was torn down in late 1763 or early 1764 in order to construct the new present church on the site of the old. All but the east wall of the Terrado Church was removed. Some of the arches of the porteria of the convent were closed and services were conducted in this area. Construction on the above ground walls of the present church be-gan with the end of the freezing weather of the Winter of 1767-1768.

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION

The paschal candle, blessed at the Easter Vigil, carried in procession into the darkened church, and aflame with the light of Christ to be passed hand to hand to renew our baptism, burns for the fifty days of Easter whenever we gather as Christ’s risen body. In the last fifty years, we have grown to see this candle as the sign of Christ’s enduring presence with us. Be-fore then, it was often seen more as a kind of signpost pointing backwards to events in Christ’s life. Therefore, in some places, on the fortieth day after Easter, in order to portray the disappearance of Jesus at the Ascension, the candle was hidden.

Now we see the paschal candle as a sign of the great baptismal season of grace and it re-mains in a prominent place throughout the en-tire fifty days. We do know of some churches that did not hide the candle after the Ascen-sion. In England before the Reformation, the candle was left in place for fifty days, since on Pentecost Eve there was a vigil, and the candle was used to consecrate the waters of the font. In Salisbury cathedral, the candle was thir-ty�six feet high, and in Westminster Abbey weighed over three hundred pounds. On Pen-tecost, the candles were melted to make tapers for the funerals of the poor. —James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

IN BETWEEN

In between: we all find ourselves there from time to time—sometimes uncomfortably. Like in between money coming in and money going out, earning income and paying bills. In between customer and manager, diner and chef: any honest server trying to serve both. In between theory and practice, ideal and reality: everyone from parents to pastors. Ask the kids—or parishioners! This Sunday, in be-tween Ascension and Pentecost, reminds us we’re in between Jesus’ departure and glori-ous return—sometimes uncomfortably. Though Jesus promises in Revelation, “I am coming soon,” Acts shows Stephen tragically called home first. But Pope Francis urges us not to become “sourpusses,” as if living Gospel love is impossible in between. Today’s Gospel shows Jesus praying for those about to betray, deny, and desert him, but also praying “for those who will believe in me through their word.” Us! “So that they”—we—“may all be one.” Copyright © J.
