This event is for high schoolers & their families. We will be visiting the Mission Basilica San Diego de Alcalá where we will do a self-guided tour and learn about Saint Junipero Serra. We will meet at the Mission at 12pm and should be wrapping up by 3pm at the latest.
We are making a slight change to our annual May Crowning ceremony which will be held on the same day as originally scheduled, May 2nd, but with a change of time to 11 AM rather than 6 PM. School parents are invited to pray the Rosary with us and crown Mary. All students will wear their Sunday church clothes (no spaghetti straps, short dresses), formal attire recommended, and please bring a flower for Mary.

The word faith is often understood as accepting something you can’t understand. People often say: “Such and such can’t be explained, you simply have to believe it.” However, when Jesus talks about faith, he means first of all to trust unreservedly that you are loved, so that you can abandon every false way of obtaining love.
The Greek word for faith is pistis, which means, literally, “trust.”
- Henri Nouwen

“Everything began with the grace of God – everything always begins with grace, not with our own efforts – with the grace of God, who is a Father and has given us so many good things, entrusting different talents to each of us. We possess a great wealth that depends not on what we possess but on what we are: the life we have received, the good within us, the indelible beauty God has given us by making us in his image. All these things make each of us precious in his eyes, each one of us is priceless and unique in history! This is how God looks at us, how God feels towards us.” -Pope Francis

We continue our journey through Eastertide, experiencing the joy of the Risen Lord. This coming fourth Sunday of Easter traditionally features Jesus as the Good Shepherd, and is also kept annually as the World Day of Prayer for Vocations.
We continue to pray for war-torn countries, that they will find a Good Shepherd to guide them out of conflict.

Friends, today’s Gospel (John 6:30–35) is from the bread of life discourse: “I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me will never hunger, and whoever believes in me will never thirst.” What God has wanted from the beginning is to sit down with his creatures in a fellowship banquet, sharing life and laughter, giving, receiving, and giving back again.
This is the loop of grace. The more we receive the divine life, the more we should give it away and thereby get more of it.
Throughout the Old Testament, we find images of the holy banquet. On God’s holy mountain, Isaiah says there will be good meats and pure choice wines. And throughout his ministry, Jesus hosts meals to which all are invited. God wants to share his life with us.
This comes to fullest expression at the Eucharist, where Jesus changes the bread and the wine into his Body and Blood and then invites all of us around this table to feast and share life, to give and to receive and to give again.
-Bishop Robert Barron
