Jack Long From the Desk of Father Jack Parish Directory Greetings, PARISH OFFICE 763-421-2471 Next week we gather together as a church to celebrate the birthday of the Church in the world. On this day, Pentecost, the Holy Spirit descended on the Apostles and literally shook things up. Wouldn’t it have been interesting if the Apostles were split up conservatives vs. liberals? Nothing would have happened. But they did have their conflicts on how to spread and who to spread the Good News of Jesus Christ. It was the presence of Holy Spirit that gave them the courage to witness Jesus to those who were ready to believe. It was the presence of the Holy Spirit that gave these people counsel, fortitude, and knowledge of how God works in their lives. It was the Holy Spirit that gave those in the upper room the gift of piety so they could pray and listen to the will of God. It was the Holy Spirit that gave the new formed Church the proper respect and reverence for our God. Those same gifts are open to all of us. This Monday our tenth and eleventh graders will receive the Holy Spirit in the Sacrament of Confirmation. Congratulations to all of you! That same challenge given to all those who were present at that first Pentecost is there for you as well. Go out and witness to how God is working in your life. Go out and witness how God loves you and all people. If you still struggle with that, then I would encourage you to feast on the bread of life - the Eucharist - week after week. This will give you the spiritual energy to live in Christ and proclaim him as well. Next week we would like to encourage you all to be part of the environment here at Church. If you remember, please wear red. It is always great seeing a splash of red throughout the church. Show one another how Spirit filled we are as we gather to celebrate Pentecost and as we celebrate going out and proclaiming Jesus Christ.

Mr. Ramón Garcia Worship The Ascension of the Lord Bernie Leach Prayers and readings during the Mass on this day emphasize both the return of Christ to heaven, and his abiding presence in the community. This feast is not just about Jesus returning to heaven, it is also about the exaltation of the human race – all of us - who hope to follow him here on earth and into heaven too. Blessed be you, risen Lord, who ascended into heaven to prepare a place for us, but who nevertheless continues to live among us. Be present in our community in the Word that you give to us and in the bread that you share with us. To you glory forever and ever. Amen.

Congratulations to the young women and men who will celebrate the sacrament of Confirmation Monday, May 9 at the Cathedral of St. Paul. Our parish prays for these young men and women to be bold followers of Jesus Christ. Women of Wonder to Host End of the Year Social! Join us this Tuesday, May 10, 9:30-11:00 a.m. in The Refuge. We have had a wonderful year and would like to celebrate with those women who have been able to make it to any of our meetings, events, or volunteer opportunities. We also want women to feel comfortable coming to this meeting even if it is their first, as there are continued opportunities to be involved throughout the summer. As usual, all women of all ages and stages are welcome to join us. Childcare is available for your children and grandchildren for $3 per child/$5 per family. Invite a friend! See you this Tuesday! We would also like to thank everyone who prayed for our candidates through the prayer doves we displayed during Lent. Some of our prayer partners have wanted to send a note of encouragement to the individual they prayed for. If you would like to do this, please drop off your note at the parish office front desk for Chantell and she will forward it to the candidate. Go and Make Disciples of All Nations (Mt 28:19) Join us Sundays, May 15 and 22 at 9:40 a.m. in The Refuge for presentations by Fr. Joe Kuharski. Jesus sends each one of us out on mission to spread our faith with joy. As Catholics, why is it that we often shy away from evangelization? Why do we miss out on opportunities we already have to evangelize, and how do we look for new opportunities? In this series, Fr. Joe will put evangelization in the modern religious context, while providing some basic training and practical initiatives to spread the good news of our Catholic faith. www.ststephenchurch.org/faithformation 4 School The Works Museum Mrs. Tiffany McCaffrey The Kindergarten students went on a field trip to the Works Museum April 22. The children had a great time exploring with many hands on building materials. A major highlight was building a kaleidoscope to take home. Each child's kaleidoscope has such unique and beautiful images inside. We were also blessed to have an awesome bus driver (Deacon Peter Bednarczyk) to transport our precious cargo to and from Edina.

Faith: As a vital part of the parish community, we educate students in a Catholic atmosphere enriched by the Gospel messages of peace and justice. The spiritual development of students is the primary goal. The school recognizes that a person's faith is formed by living out that faith in community through prayer, worship, service and study; and grounded in our Catholic tradition. Academics: In partnership with their family, each student is encouraged and directed to reach his or her potential. Our academic program emphasizes mastery of the basics, academic excellence, and a variety of extracurricular activities. The school prepares students to be fully equipped for their next level of academic achievement. Community: The school seeks to provide a safe and trusting learning environment where each student is valued and challenged to grow spiritually, academically, emotionally, socially, and physically. www.ststephenschool.org 5 Pastoral Care Please Pray for...

La próxima semana vamos a reunirnos como iglesia para celebrar el cumpleaños de La Iglesia en el mundo. En aquel día, Pentecostés, el Espíritu Santo descendió sobre los Apóstoles y sacudió todo. Hubiera sido interesante si los apóstoles estuvieran divididos como liberales versus conservadores. No hubiera pasado nada. Pero ellos tenían sus conflictos de cómo y con quien compartir La Buena Nueva de Jesucristo. Era la presencia del Espíritu Santo que les dio la fuerza de ser testigos a los que estaban listos para creer. Era la presencia del Espíritu que les dio consejos, a fortitud, la sabiduría, de cómo trabaja Dios en sus vidas. Era el Espíritu Santo que les dio a los seguidores el don de la piedad para que pudieran orar y escuchar la voluntad de Dios. Era el Espíritu Santo que dio a la Iglesia recién formada el respeto y la reverencia para nuestro Dios. Estos mismos dones están disponibles para nosotros también. Esta semana, los alumnos de los grados 10 y 11 recibieron el Sacramento de La Confirmación. ¡Felicidades a todos ustedes! El mismo reto que tenían ellos en Pentecostés está presente para ustedes. Vayan a ser testigos de Dios, de cómo Él está trabajando en sus vidas. Si todavía luchan con eso, les invito a comulgar semana tras semana, con La Eucaristía. Esto les va a dar la energía espiritual para vivir en Cristo y para proclamar a El también. La próxima semana, nos gustaría invitar a que se pongan el color rojo, para formar parte de la ambientación de la Iglesia. Es bonito ver tanto rojo en la Iglesia. Mostrémonos los unos a los otros como estamos llenos del Espíritu Santo, mientras que nos reunimos a celebrar Pentecostés, y celebramos que estamos proclamando la noticia de Jesucristo.

Anuncios en Español Las Flores Para El Día De Las Madres Los Caballeros de Colon realizarán su venta anual de flores, con el lema, “Gracias, Mamá, Por La Vida”. La venta será el 7 y el 8 de mayo. Venderán orquidias, claveles y violetas africanas. Las ventas se llevaran a cabo en las entradas de la iglesia, antes y después de las misas. Todo va al beneficio de las actividades pro-vida. El Sacramento de La Reconciliación El sacramento de la Reconciliación es uno de los tesoros más grandes de nuestra fe católica, porque es por medio de la confesión que experimentamos la sanación y la misericordia de nuestro Señor, por todos nuestros pecados. Es por esta razón que la Iglesia pide a todos los católicos que nos confesemos por lo menos una vez al año, y nos invita a frecuentar el sacramento aún más. Las confesiones en español: miércoles, 11 de mayo, 7:00 p.m. sábado, 14 de mayo, 3:30-4:30 p.m. sábado, 21 de mayo, 3:30-4:30 p.m. miércoles, 25 de mayo, 7:00 p.m. ¿Te Gustaría Pasar Una Hora Frente Al Santísimo, en La Adoración Eucarística? Cada momento que pasas con Cristo en la Adoración va a aumentar su Presencia Divina en ti. Ven a la Adoración. Se necesitan más adoradores comprometidos en los horarios siguientes: Los martes de 9:00 a.m. a 10:00 a.m.; los miércoles, 1:00 a.m. a 2:00 a.m.; los martes y miércoles, de 12:00 p.m. a 1:00 p.m., y los viernes de 9:00 p.m. a 10:00 p.m. Si tú puedes comprometerte a una hora cada semana, llama a Joyce Schumacher at 612-860-3830, en inglés, o con el Diácono Ramón al 763712-7482 en español. La Ascensión del Señor Bernie Leach Las oraciones y las lecturas de la misa este día enfatizan la llegada de Jesús al cielo y su presencia entre la comunidad. Esta fiesta no solo se trata de Jesús regresando al cielo, sino que también se trata de la exaltación de la raza humana, todos nosotros, que esperamos seguirle aquí en la tierra y también en el cielo. Bendito seas, Señor resucitado, quien ascendió al cielo para prepararnos un lugar, pero que sigue viviendo entre nosotros. Que estés presente en nuestra comunidad en La Palabra que nos das, y en el pan que compartes con nosotros. A Ti, la gloria para siempre. Amén. 9 Ministerio Hispano Anuncios en Español "Block Party" para Los Jóvenes de Middle School Todos los jóvenes de Middle School están invitados a celebrar el fin del año escolar, con una fiesta el viernes, 13 de mayo, de 7:00 p.m. a 9:00 p.m. en la escuela.
