Dear Parishioners and Friends of Ascension,

On Tuesday, May 16th, we welcome Bishop John O’Hara

to Ascension Church. Bishop O’Hara is one of New

York’s auxiliary bishops and he will come to us on that day

to celebrate with us the outpouring of the Holy Spirit

through the Sacrament of Confirmation. The Sacrament of

Confirmation will be celebrated at 6:00p.m. Those being

confirmed are about 83 in number. All are invited to

attend. We are equally happy to welcome Fr. John

Paddock, the pastor of Notre Dame and the dean of our

deanery (formerly Vicariate,) as well as Fr. Larry Ford,

OFM and Fr. Michael Crimmins from Holy Name of Jesus

- St. Gregory the Great. At the celebration of

Confirmation, we will welcome Confirmation candidates

from Notre Dame and Holy Name of Jesus-St. Gregory the

Great Parish, as well as the students from St. Gregory’s

School. One of the recommendations from the “Making

All Things New” process a few years back, was that we

adapt a collaborative style of ministry, and work together

on things like Confirmation. We have tried to be faithful to

that recommendation. Because of the length of

Confirmation, there will be no 7:00p.m. Mass on that

evening.

And, finally, I would like to congratulate the 80 boys and

girls from Ascension parish who received their First Holy

Communion this weekend. The children were excited and

enthusiastic about the day. The children read at the Mass,

they learned their songs well and they sang together

beautifully. After the mass, all the first communicants and

their families were invited to the school auditorium for a

meal, hosted by Darren and Patrice Jean and some

generous parents. I’d like to extend a special word of

thanks to Ted Arthur who helped the children with the

music as well as Preston and Margarita. I would also like to

thank our wonderful Religious Ed. teachers who prepared

the children for First Communion, Gilberte Desir, Jan

Dugan, Claire Gaudaini, Miriam Ortiz, Jesus Ramos,

Marco Uruchima, and Jenna Motti, the second grade

teacher from our school. I would also like to thank Mery

Madera and Teresita Navarro for the decorations and the

flowers.

Thanks also to Robin Klueber. The children were extremely

well prepared for their First Communion and for this very

beautiful celebration. Thank you Robin for your dedication

and hard work! The fruits of her work were clear!

Peace, Fr. Kearney

PASTOR’S LETTER NOTAS DEL PASTOR

Queridos Feligreses y Amigos de la Ascensión,

El martes, 16 de mayo, damos la bienvenida al obispo John

O’Hara a la iglesia de la Ascensión. Mons. O’Hara es uno

de los obispos auxiliares de Nueva York y vendrá aquí ese

día para celebrar con nosotros el derrame del Espíritu Santo

a través del sacramento de la confirmación. El sacramento

de la confirmación será celebrado a las 6 de la tarde. Los

que serán confirmados son 83 en número. Todos están

invitados a asistir. También estamos muy contentos de dar

la bienvenida al Padre John Paddock, el párroco de Notre

Dame y el decano de nuestro decanato (anteriormente

vicariato) al igual que al Padre Larry Ford, OFM, y al Padre

Michael Crimmins de Holy Name – San Gregorio Magno.

En la celebración de la confirmación daremos la bienvenida

a candidatos de confirmación de las parroquias de Notre

Dame y Holy Name-San Gregorio Magno, al igual que a

estudiantes de la escuela de San Gregorio Magno. Una de

las recomendaciones del proceso de “Haciendo Todas las

Cosas Nuevas” hace unos años fue que adaptáramos un

estilo de ministerio colaborativo y trabajáramos juntos en

cosas como la confirmación. Hemos tratado de ser fieles a

esta recomendación. A causa de la larga duración de la

confirmación, no habrá misa de las 7 esa noche.

Y, finalmente, me gustaría felicitar a los 80 niños y niñas

de la parroquia de la Ascensión que recibieron su primera

comunión este fin de semana. Los niños estuvieron

emocionados y entusiasmados ese día. Los niños leyeron

en la misa, se aprendieron bien sus cantos y cantaron juntos

bellísimo. Después de la misa, todos los primeros

comulgantes y sus familias fueron invitados al auditorio de

la escuela para una comida que fue organizada por Darren y

Patrice y otros padres de familias generosas. Me gustaría

extender una palabra especial de gracias a Ted Arthur que

ayudó a los niños con la música, al igual que a Preston y

Margarita. También me gustaría dar las gracias a nuestros

maravillosos maestros de Educación Religiosa que

prepararon a los niños para su primera comunión: Gilberte

Desir, Jan Dugan, Claire Gaudaini, Miriam Ortiz, Jesús

Ramos, Marco Uruchima y Jenna Motti, la maestra de

segundo grado en nuestra escuela. También me gustaría

dar las gracias a Mery Madera y Teresita Navarro por las

decoraciones y las flores.

Gracias también a Robin Klueber. Los niños estuvieron

extremadamente bien preparados para su primera comunión

y para esta bellísima celebración. ¡Gracias, Robin, por tu

dedicación y buen trabajo! ¡Los frutos de su trabajo

estaban claros!

Paz, Padre Kearney
