The beautiful image of a vine carefully tended by the Father is used by Jesus to describe his and our relationship to God (Gospel). We are all sustained in an intimate co-existence with the Holy Trinity. Jesus invites us to remain close to him. Without him, our life is nothing, with him, we discover our true identity and purpose
This week, let us try to consciously be aware that we are branches of one vine, rooted in God’s love. Although we may have our differences and shortcomings, we are forever loved completely by a God of compassion, love and forgiveness. Let us pray that like St Paul, we will have the grace to live out this amazing Good News!

Fr. Adolfo Nicolás, SJ (1936-2020), former Jesuit superior general, who spent years in Japan, and later visited Jesuits worldwide, felt that in
Asia people often gravitated toward Jesus as the
“way.” In the West, it was more as “truth.” And in Africa, more as “life.” What is needed, said Father
Nicolas, is understanding Jesus as all three, as he says in today’s Gospel (Jn 14:1-6).

Open Yourself to God
To pray means to open your hands before God. It means slowly relaxing the tension that squeezes your hands together and accepting your existence with an increasing readiness, not as a possession to defend, but as a gift to receive. Above all, prayer is a way of life that allows you to find stillness in the midst of the world where you open your hands to God’s promises and find hope for yourself, your neighbor, and your world. In prayer, you encounter God not only in the small voice and the soft breeze, but also in the midst of the turmoil of the world, in the distress and joy of your neighbor, and in the loneliness of your own heart.
Prayer leads you to see new paths and to hear new melodies in the air. Prayer is the breath of your life that gives you freedom to go and to stay where you wish, to find the many signs that point out the way to a new land. Praying is not simply some necessary compartment in the daily schedule of a Christian or a source of support in a time of need, nor is it restricted to Sunday mornings or mealtimes. Praying is living. It is eating and drinking, acting and resting, teaching and learning, playing and working. Praying pervades every aspect of our lives. It is the unceasing recognition that God is wherever we are, always inviting us to come closer and to celebrate the divine gift of being alive.
In the end, a life of prayer is a life with open hands—a life where we need not be ashamed of our weaknesses but realize that it is more perfect for us to be led by the Other than to try to hold everything in our own hands.

Community art projects ! THIS SUNDAY April 28 we will gather for our next community art piece to be featured at the Mass of Inclusion! Our focus will be on Pentecost, when God sends the Holy Spirit. These activities are designed so that all may participate on some level - be it decision making (choosing color or pattern ) or application (applying the material- paint, paper, glue)
Special thanks to Virginia Bayer for snacks and Marci Hubal for drinks this Sunday.
We will also have sign ups for the Mass helpers.
Acts 2:1-2
“When the time for Pentecost was fulfilled, they were all in one place together. And suddenly there came from the sky a noise like a strong driving wind, and it filled the entire house in which they were.”

“Jesus has no house, because his house is the people; it is we who are his dwelling place; his mission is to open God’s doors to all, to be the presence of God’s love.”
― Pope Francis, The Church of Mercy
Our call? To bear the heart of God to the world!

Let us never lose sight of the Father’s saving embrace. It is the paradigm of life, the heart of the Gospel, our model of radical love. May we allow
Him to embrace us as children, so that we may embrace our brothers and sisters with the same charity.
-Pope Francis
