Dear Friends –
Today is Pentecost Sunday, the birthday of the Church. Pentecost
on Greek means “fifty”: it has been 50 days since we celebrated the great
feast of Easter. In order of importance, Easter is our most important feast,
followed by Pentecost and Christmas. Yes, after Easter our most important
feast is Pentecost! Pentecost ends the Easter Season and beginning tomorrow, we go back to Ordinary Time and the wearing of the green. This is
probably the least celebrated of our major feasts. In a personal way, I always treasure Pentecost because on a Pentecost Sunday 15 years ago, I
celebrated my first Mass as a priest. I leave you with this Pentecost Prayer.
“Come Holy Spirit”
Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful and kindle in them the fire of
your love. Send forth your spirit and they shall be created. And you shall renew
the face of the earth.
Oh God, who by the light of the Holy Spirit, did instruct the hearts of the
faithful, grant that by the same Holy Spirit we may be truly wise and ever enjoy
His consolations, through Christ Our Lord. Amen
Happy Pentecost ,
Father Brian

FROM THE OLL PARISH RELIGIOUS EDUCATION PROGRAM
KID SAFETY - TEEN SAFETY
In 2003 the U S Conference of Catholic Bishops wrote a charter for the protection of children and young people titled “Promise to Protect, Pledge
to Heal”. This charter was written in response to the clergy sexual abuse crisis in the Catholic Church. We value the trust you put in us in placing
your children in our care. Keeping them safe is of utmost importance to us. We cannot take back the past, but we can put programs and procedures
in place that keep our children and young people as safe as possible. In support of this effort the Archdiocese is providing online training for grades
4-12 students as follows:
Kids Safety (online) 4th – 8th Grade - Completed in Class
Teen Safety (online) 9th - 12th Grade – Completed in Class
We affirm parents as the first educators of their children. 4th – 12th Grade parents and students are encouraged to take the online training. These
courses are accessed by going to www.shieldthevulnerable.org
All teens are encouraged to take the online courses. If you do not have access to a computer, please contact the OLL Parish School of Religion and
we will arrange for you to take the course at the parish.
DESDE EL PROGRAMA DE EDUCACIÓN RELIGIOSA PARROQUIA OLL
NIÑO DE SEGURIDAD - SEGURIDAD TEEN
En 2003, la Conferencia de Obispos Católicos escribió una carta para la protección de los niños y los jóvenes titulados "Promesa de
proteger, Promesa para Sanar". Esta carta fue escrita en respuesta a la crisis de los abusos sexuales del clero en la Iglesia Católica.
Valoramos la confianza que puso en nosotros en la colocación de sus niños a nuestro cuidado. Mantener a salvo es de suma importancia para nosotros. No podemos recuperar el pasado, pero podemos poner programas y procedimientos en el lugar que mantener a nuestros niños y jóvenes lo más seguro posible. En apoyo de este esfuerzo la Arquidiócesis está proporcionando capacitación en
línea para los grados 4-12 estudiantes de la siguiente manera:
Seguridad de los niños (en línea) cuarto a octavo grado - Terminado en clase
Adolescente de Seguridad (en línea) noveno - 12vo Grado - Terminado en clase
Afirmamos los padres como los primeros educadores de sus hijos. Se anima a los 12 padres y estudiantes de Grado para tomar la
capacitación en línea - cuarta. Estos cursos se accede por ir a www.shieldthevulnerable.org
Se anima a todos los adolescentes a tomar los cursos en línea. Si usted no tiene acceso a una computadora, por favor comuníquese
con la Escuela Parroquial OLL de Religión y haremos los arreglos para que usted tome el curso en la parroquia.
Queridos Amigos Hoy es Domingo de Pentecostés, el nacimiento de la Iglesia. Pentecostés en
griego significa "cincuenta": se ha pasado 50 días desde que celebramos la
gran fiesta de la Pascua. En orden de importancia, la Pascua es nuestra fiesta
más importante, seguido de Pentecostés y Navidad. Sí, después de Pascua
nuestra fiesta más importante es Pentecostés! Pentecostés termina el tiempo
de Pascua, y a partir de mañana, que se remontan al tiempo ordinario y el uso del verde. Este
es probablemente el menos célebre de nuestras fiestas mayores. De manera personal, siempre
atesoro Pentecostés porque un domingo de Pentecostés de hace 15 años, celebré mi primera
misa como sacerdote. Os dejo con esta oración Pentecostés.
"Ven Espíritu Santo"
Ven Espíritu Santo, llena los corazones de tus fieles y enciende en ellos el
fuego de tu amor. Envía tu Espíritu y serán creados. Y te renueve la faz de la tierra.
Oh Dios, que por la luz del Espíritu Santo, hizo instruir a los corazones de
los fieles, concede que por el mismo Espíritu Santo podemos ser verdaderamente
sabio y siempre disfrutar de sus consuelos, por Cristo Nuestro Señor. Amén
Happy Pentecost
Padre Brian
LECTURAS DE HOY
Primera lectura — El Espíritu Santo desciende sobre los apóstoles (Hechos 2:1-11).
Salmo — Envía, Señor, tu Espíritu, a renovar la tierra. Aleluya (Salmo 104 [103]).
Segunda lectura — Hemos sido bautizados en el
mismo Espíritu para formar un solo cuerpo (1 Cor

12-13) o Gálatas 5:16-25.
Evangelio — Jesús se hizo presente a los discípulos
y les trajo su paz. Les envío en su misión con poder
para perdonar o atar los pecados por el Espíritu Santo (Juan 20:19-23) o Juan 15:26-27; 16:12-15.
PROFUNDIDAD BÍBLICA
No te preocupes por lo que no entiendas de la Biblia.
Preocúpate por aquello que entiendes y no aplicas en tu vida.
—Corrie ten Boom
