A MESSAGE FROM OUR PASTOR

Dear Holy Apostles Parish Family,

Congratulations to all of our First Communicants

this weekend! Many thanks to the parents,

teachers and people in our Family Faith For-

mation who prepared the children for this day.

You are all a blessing to our parish family. It

always renews the miracle of the Body and Blood

of Christ when you see a child receive for the

first time. Our children make us look at ourselves

again and remind us of what we take for granted.

Saturday and Sunday, May 28 and 29 is the

celebration of Father Sherry’s 50th Ordination

Anniversary. We have put out several notifica-

tions on this, but some still tell me they did not

know about it. We are blessed that he is coming

to have chocolate-covered donuts from Riverside

Bakery and visit with people Saturday and Sun-

day morning from 8 to 11 AM. The big celebra-

tion is Saturday at 5 PM Mass with a dinner fol-

lowing. We really need you to make reservations

for this dinner, so we can provide food for the

amount coming and make sure we have enough

tables set up. We can accommodate 400 people

and Fr. Sherry has invited around 200 people

from the rest of his 50 years. If there is anyone

interested in helping us with the nitty-gritty part

of doing this weekend, let us know. We can use

help working together.

Have a Blessed Week! Fr. Paul

Pray for Military Personnel Please continue to pray for the safety of friends

and family of our parish members especially

Adam Krey, Dan Carrick, Benjamin Smeenge,

Joseph Salgado, Keith LaRock, Andy Schiera,

David Yeazell, Gavin Laskowski, Jaan Sass,

Daniel Snow, Kyle Floyd,

TJ Dinkelman, Chris

Mahood, William Vincent,

Jr., Alex Pavia, Andrew

Morales, John DeCicco,

Jack Walberg, Michael Kinnerk, Daniel Richard-

son, Christopher M. Chapman, Alex McDonagh,

Will Banville, Brad Roudebush, Patrick Phelan,

Zach Fonk, Tim Heatley, Jason Moa, Matthew

Montani, John J. Gibson and Joseph Kandray,

who are serving our country either stateside or

in a foreign country. Please let us know if you

have a family member serving in the military. Lord, hold our troops in your loving hands.

Protect them as they protect us. Bless them and

their families for the selfless acts they perform for

us in our time of need and give us peace. We ask

this in the name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior. Amen.

Income and Expense Report

For the Six Months Ending March 31, 2016

Your Gifts Help Stretch Budgets For many in our community, after bills are paid, there

is little money left over to buy food for the days

ahead. The St. Vincent de Paul Society provides

bags of non-perishables as well as frozen meats on

their visits to individuals and families, providing

meals that help stretch meager budgets. These food

items, donated by parishioners and purchased by

SVdPS through the

Northern Illinois Food

Bank, are deeply

appreciated by our

neighbors in need.

Each bag of food pro-

vides the ingredients

for nutritious meals,

allowing families to live with dignity. Thank you and

God bless you for your non-perishable food and your

monetary donations to this ministry.

Pagina 9 Sexto Domingo de Pascua 1 Mayo, 2016

Apóstoles del latín, apostolus; griego,apostolos, uno que

es enviado.

Apóstol: Un mensajero autorizado para representar a

quien lo envía.

12 Apóstoles: Según su uso más

amplio en el Nuevo Testamento,

se refiere a los seguidores de

Jesucristo que comunican su

Evangelio. En el sentido más

preciso, se refiere a la comuni-

dad de los 12 que El escogió co-

mo discípulos íntimos durante su

vida pública. Estos son llamados discípulos hasta la As-

censión, y después se les llama siempre Apóstoles. Los

Apóstoles fueron ordenados por Jesús en la Ultima Cena

como sacerdotes y recibieron de El la comisión de pred-

icar el Evangelio en todo el mundo (Mateo 28, 19-20).

Todos lo abandonaron ese mismo día, cuando unos de

entre ellos, Judas, lo traicionó. Más tarde fueron testigos

de la Resurrección de Jesús y en Pentecostés recibieron

poder para entender y actuar según el Evangelio. Judas

fue remplazado por Matías como Apóstol. Los Apóstoles

son los primeros pastores de la Iglesia, bajo Pedro, el

jefe de los Apóstoles. Ellos a su vez eligieron a otros pas-

tores, dando así comienzo la sucesión apostólica que es

uno de los signos de la verdadera Iglesia.

1 DE MAYO SAN JOSÉ OBRERO Hoy la Iglesia recuerda, en el día de los

trabajadores, a san José, obrero.

Hoy celebramos al padre nutricio de

Jesús, justo y humilde carpintero de Naza-

ret, que pasa la vida no sólo en la meditación y la

oración, sino también en las fatigas de su artesanía. José

es el símbolo de la prudencia, del silencio, de la gener-

osidad, de la dignidad y de la aplicación en el trabajo;

también lo es de los derechos y de los deberes respecto

del trabajo.

San José fue un auténtico obrero en el pleno sentido de

la palabra, y el único hombre que compartió con el Hijo

de Dios la tarea de todos los días.

Recordamos hoy a todos los trabajadores de nuestra pa-

tria y del mundo, pidiendo al cielo para que sean instru-

mentos de paz, de evangelización, de serena inteligen-

cia, de valor y de confianza en sí mismos, de esperanzas

de bien y de ferviente voluntad. Hoy la Iglesia recuerda,

en el día de los trabajadores, a san José, obrero. Juan

Pablo II enseña que los hombres descubren pronto la

cruz en su trabajo; precisamente por ello el esfuerzo hu-

mano es redentor, pues Cristo lo ha unido a su pasión:

también él fue obrero y predicó su evangelio del trabajo

conociendo íntimamente esta realidad que tiene por pro-

tagonistas a todos los hombres y mujeres del mundo.

Limpieza de la Iglesia La limpieza de la Iglesia es el 11 de mayo a las 5:45 PM.

res o John Jelinek el dia 3 o 4 de Mayo de 10 AM a 3 PM.

No sabe que hacer con lo que no usa en casa Si en su casa tiene muebles o cosas que ya no las usa y

quiere donarlas. La Iglesia de St. Mary en Mchenry se las

acepta. Cada año realiza una venta con todas la

donaciones recibidas para ayudarse. La venta sera el 16,

17 y 18 de junio . Mas información mas adelante.

Vigilia de Pentecostés El Sábado 14 de Mayo en la Iglesia de 7 PM a 12 AM.

Vigilia, que significa “Noche en vela” porque se desarrolla

de noche, es un acto litúrgico, una importante celebración

de la comunidad que vigila y reflexiona en oración mien-

tras la población duerme. Se trata de estar despiertos

durante la noche a la espera de la luz del día de una fies-

ta importante, en este caso Pentecostés. En ella se com-

parten, a la luz de la Palabra de Dios, experiencias, testi-

monios y vivencias. Es importante tener presente que la

lectura de la Sagrada Escritura, las oraciones, los cantos,

los gestos, los símbolos, la luz, las imágenes, los colores,

la celebración de la Eucaristía y la participación de la

asamblea son elementos claves de una Vigilia.

Invoquemos, una vez más, al Espíritu Santo para que nos

regale sus luces, su fuerza y nos haga fieles testigos de

Jesucristo, nuestro Señor

Formación, Matrimonio y Familia Le queremos recorder que ya dimos inicio el viernes pasa-

do la clase de formacion, matrimionio y familia. Si le

gustaria asistir nos reunimos a las 6:45pm En el Remem-

brance Room. Por ello, el matrimonio y la familia que lee y

medita en la Palabra, juntos la comparten y oran inspira-

dos por ella, son necesariamente iluminados por el mis-

mo Dios y transformados en El, quien es el Amor, y lleva-

dos a un compromiso de vida donde reina el Amor. Les

invitamos en este mes de la Biblia a reunirse como matri-

monio y como familia a leer, meditar y orar con la Palabra

y le insitamos a mantener siempre esta sana costum-

bre. Y Dios, les dará la luz para entender su mensaje, la

sabiduría para hacer las mejores decisiones, la fuerza

para superar las pruebas y el amor para formar matrimo-

nios y familias que inspiran.
