Charitable Gifts from your IRA or other Retirement Plan All IRAs, 401Ks and other retirement plans have beneficiary pages. Because leaving these plans to children can result in a large percentage going to taxes, you may want to consider naming the parish endowment fund as a beneficiary of your retirement plan. It will be a charitable gift so no taxes are due on the gift. You can even leave just a percentage of the retirement plan to the parish endowment fund. For information about changing your beneficiaries on retirement plans contact: Diane Duquette at the Catholic Foundation of North Georgia: [email protected] or 404-497-9440. Information about gifts from retirement plans is also available at www.cfngalegacy.org Pentecost / Pentecostés FAITH FORMATION (Formación de Fe y Catecismo) FAREWELL TO DEEPA KINGRY We are saying “Good Bye” to Deepa after 4 years of dedicated service to the teens of our parish. Deepa is trading in her service hat as the Coordinator of Life Teen for a nun’s veil. Discerning God’s call to live out her life as a Dominican Nun has been a true journey of faith. Deepa will certainly be missed for she has contributed much to the spiritual formation of our teens. Let us pledge to pray for Deepa for a lifetime of fulfillment as she lives out her religious vocation. If you would like to keep in touch with Deepa, or just offer a note of encouragement, you can write to her at: Sr. Deepa Kingry c/o Dominican Nuns 543 Springfield Summit, NJ 07901 ADULT FAITH FORMATION HANDOUTS FROM 2012 PARISH MISSION—NOW AVAILABLE ONLINE Father Jarema’s handouts are now available on the St. Thomas the Apostle website.

BOOK OF THE MONTH: Tuesday, June 12th, at 11:00 a.m. in the Adult Faith Formation Building. Join us for discussion of the book: The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lax by Rebecca Sckloot. A multilayered story about faith, science, journalism, and grace. It is also a tale of medical wonders and medical arrogance, racism, poverty and the bond that grows, sometimes painfully, between two very different women—Skloot and Deborah Lacks—sharing an obsession to learn about Deborah's mother, Henrietta, and her magical, immortal cells.CATHOLICISM SERIES RETURNS THIS SUMMER!

SINGLES CONVENTION: The Catholic Alumni Club International invites you to their annual convention in Charleston, SC July 22-28. For more info, go to www.caci.org/conv_natl.php or contact Don at [email protected] This week in our parish Today’s Gospel Reflection Read Sunday’s gospel, John 20:19-23. Reflection for Families Parents are often the source of hope and encouragement for their children. When a child falls repeatedly while learning to walk or ride a bike, it is a parent who coaxes, encourages and praises the child. Parents provide hope and comfort when a child falls short of a goal either in academics, relationships, sports, or the arts. Parents can relate to the role of Jesus with his disciples. They were frightened and discouraged but they found hope and relief with the peace and presence of Jesus. Bringing the Gospel into Your Family Using the newspaper, news broadcast, or situations you know about, share ideas about people in the world or your community who might be discouraged. Suggest ways either in prayer or by action that your family might bring hope to these (or some) people. Discussion Starters I remember once I was really discouraged but I found peace when… I was a source of peace for someone when… I can relate to the “doubting” Thomas, but I have learned… Gospel Reflections courtesy of RCL Benziger MONDAY, MAY 28 12:00 PM 7:45 PM THURSDAY, MAY 31 MASS For All Who Have Served in the Military CURSILLISTAS WOMEN 10:00 AM 6:30 PM 7:00 PM BIBLE STUDY ROSARY MASS The Koa Family BIBLE STUDY CAPITAL CAMPAIGN COMMITTEE MISA 7:00 PM 8:00 PM TUESDAY, MAY 29 12:00 PM 5:30 PM 6:30 PM 7:00 PM 7:30 PM MASS Debbie Pillman Weldon Price Jim Yates INEA CENTERING PRAYER BEREAVEMENT MINISTRY CHILDREN’S CHOIR REMEMBER THEIR SACRIFICE SVdP WEDNESDAY, MAY 30 6:30 AM 7:00 AM 6:45 PM 7:00 PM 7:00 PM 7:30 PM 8:30 PM MASS † Keller Zibilich ADORATION BENEDICTION MASS † Christopher Daniel Hasbrouck KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS LIFETEEN BAND SMALL FAITH COMMUNITIES FRIDAY, JUNE 1 12:00 PM 5:00 PM 7:00 PM 7:30 PM 8:00 PM SATURDAY, JUNE 2 8:00 AM 10:00 AM 11:00 AM 11:30 AM 12:00 PM 2:00 PM 3:30 PM 4:00 PM 5:00 PM 7:30 PM SUNDAY, JUNE 3 THE MOST HOLY TRINITY, YEAR B 6:00 AM 7:30 AM 9:30 AM 10:30 AM 11:00 AM 11:30 AM 12:00 PM 12:30 PM 1:00 PM MISA † Jorge Castillo † Victor Castillo † Arnulfo Castillo MASS † Maria Cristina Campbell MASS † Alfonsus Okoye NURSERY AVAILABLE ADULT CONFIRMATION CLASSES LEGION OF MARY MASS † Ann K.
