BOOK OF INTENTIONS
If someone you know is in need of our prayers, please enter

W V M
While we are encouraged to embrace Jesus’ cross,
perhaps the next best thing we can do as the faithful
is to turn to the Blessed Mother for
guidance…”Blessed Mother, please help me.” As
human beings, we can’t do everything. But the
Blessed Mother can go to her Son Jesus and do
wonders.
The Knights of Columbus are offering intimate
prayer devotions in your own homes to all parishioners so that
every family may experience visitation for one week from our
Visiting Madonna. Families will begin to experience a sense of
peace, quiet and reflection while saying the Rosary as a family
with Our Lady. The family that prays together stays together. If
you are interested in participating in welcoming the Visiting
Madonna, please call Sam Konrad at (843) 399-7003 or email
him at [email protected].
This week, The Visiting Madonna will be presented to
Nello & Fran Signorino at the 12:00 Noon Mass.
EVANGELIZATION
R.C.I.A.
The Rite of Christian Initiation
of Adults
The R.C.I.A. is a process of spiritual conversion
and growth, over time, in one’s relationship with God and the
Church.
It is a faith journey where adults are fully welcomed into the
Catholic Church. If you’re interested in exploring a relationship
with Jesus Christ; inquiring about the Catholic Church;
becoming Catholic; and being fully initiated into the Catholic
Church through the celebration of the Sacraments of Baptism,
Confirmation & Eucharist,
WE WELCOME YOU!
For more information about the R.C.I.A. process, please
contact Deacon Bob at the Church Office.

KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS PRESENT
CHECK TO HOLY TRINITY CATHOLIC SCHOOL
On March 23, Our Lady Star of the Sea Knights of
Columbus Council 7122 presented a check for $2,000.00
to Holy Trinity Catholic School Principal Sheila Durante at
the 8:30 Mass at Holy Trinity. The Knights raised the
money via their annual Valentine’s Day Dinner Dance held
at OLSS on February 13. Every year, proceeds from the
Valentine’s Day dance are given to Holy Trinity, and we
are very thankful for the response from the Parish and the
Community in making this dinner dance a huge success.
Holy Trinity Catholic School is a Catholic elementary
school located in Longs, South Carolina and is a
sponsored ministry of Our Lady Star of the Sea Parish.
Holy Trinity is committed to its Catholic heritage while
being
open
to
families
of
all
faiths
and
backgrounds.
Students participate in the Liturgy on
Wednesday mornings, begin and end each day with
prayer, and celebrate the various seasons of the Church’s
year as well as the major feasts of the Church.
Holy Trinity is totally committed to academic excellence
through the use of a challenging curriculum, state of the art
technology and classes in Art, Music, Physical Education,
Spanish and Computers.
W M E Think of how tired, discouraged and frustrated the apostles must
have been in the Gospel reading today. Then Jesus shows up
and tells them to try one more time. Because they were willing
and obedient, Jesus blessed them abundantly. It works the same
way in our own lives today; if we trust in Jesus and do what He
tells us to do, we will receive His abundant blessings! Allow the
grace of God to strengthen, renew and rekindle your marriage
relationship. The next Worldwide Marriage Encounter weekend
is July 8 - 10, 2016 in Columbia, SC. Early sign up is
recommended. For more information visit our website at:
http://SCMarriageMatters.org or contact us at
[email protected] or 803-810-9602.

Catholic Home Missions Appeal
The Catholic Home Missions Appeal
will take place next week. One way
that this appeal works to support
home mission dioceses in the United
States is by supporting seminarian
formation in poor dioceses. The
blessing of seminarians places a
financial burden on these dioceses,
because educating each seminarian
costs $35-40K per year. Your support
is needed for these young men so
that they might go back and serve
their parishes. Please strengthen the Church at home by
making a generous gift to next week’s appeal.
WELCOME NEW PARISHIONERS
It is a great joy to welcome our new members to
our parish family. Please register as soon as
possible in order to find out about our various
programs, ministries and activities. Just drop
this form in the collection basket and we will
send you a detailed Registration Form. Or you
may stop by the Church Office and complete a
Registration Form.

Iglesia Católica Nuestra Señora Estrella del Mar
TERCER DOMINGO DE PASCUA
.JESUS SE APARECE A SIETE APOSTOLES EN EL LAGO DE GALILEA
(San Juan 21,1-19).
Queridos Hermanos:
En el Evangelio de este Domingo, podemos ver la tarea evangelizadora de la
Iglesia. Los Apóstoles ya no están en casa, sino que salen a comenzar una actividad,
una tarea que tienen que hacer. Jesús se presenta a ellos, en el trabajo, y así
manifesta que El está presente en medio de la comunidad que trabaja por el Reino de
los Cielos. Allí están siete Apóstoles trabajando en comunidad. El número siete
significa perfección. Reflexionemos sobre algunos puntos importantes de este
encuentro de Jesús con sus Apóstoles.
1. Los Apóstoles han estado pescando toda la noche, pero no han conseguido nada.
Pero apenas llega Jesús, logran coger una gran cantidad de pescados. Es decir; la
Evangelización en la Iglesia puede dar frutos siempre y cuando esté unida a Jesús. 2.
La red llena de pescados no se rompe. Esto significa la universalidad de la Iglesia y la capacidad que ella tiene
de recibir a todos sin ninguna excepción. 3. El nombre de Mar de Galilea o "Tiberiades", es un nombre
pagano. Esto significa el mundo hostil en el que se llevará a cabo la misión, pero siempre estará Jesús presente
en la Sagrada Eucaristía liderando La Evangelización. 4. Jesús les dijo a sus Apóstoles: "Echen las redes", y
ellos por la voz reconocieron que era Jesús. Esto significa, que los discípulos en el trabajo arduo y pesado de la
Evangelización, reconocerán la voz de Jesús en la Palabra de Dios. 5. Pedro antes de reconocer a Jesús, estaba
desnudo (Significa miseria y debilidad); pero cuando lo reconoce se ciñe la túnica (Significa disposición y
voluntad de servicio); y se lanza al agua (Significa un gesto de dar la vida por los demás), luego se sienta con
Jesús y sus compañeros para compartir (el alimento) la pesca que han conseguido (Significa La Sagrada
Eucaristía, el verdadero Alimento que nos llevará a la Vida Eterna).
En la actualidad podemos ver algunos puntos importantes sobre este Evangelio:
1. Pueden haber dos peligros: -El de abandonar a Jesús, porque se le puede ver solamente como un líder con
quien hay que mantener una relación de Amo y esclavo. -Seguirlo a El personalmente, apartándome de la
Iglesia y no hacer vida de comunidad. Es importante saber, que Jesús nos considera no esclavos sino amigos. Y
El quiso fundar una Iglesia, poniendo como líder al Apóstol Pedro. 2. No puede existir una adhesión total a
Jesucristo, si no nos entregamos totalmente a la misión, sin condiciones, estando siempre dispuestos a dar la
vida por el Evangelio. 3. Todo discípulo tiene libertad de seguir o no a Jesucristo. El no obliga a nadie. 4.
Solamente renunciando a la ambición de tener prebendas y ventajas por seguir a Jesús, se puede hacer verdadero
y auténtico discípulo de Jesús. 5. Todo discípulo de Jesús tiene que estar unido a Pedro. Es decir la necesidad
de amar la Iglesia que Cristo fundo y estar unidos siempre al Sumo Pontífice.
Pidámosle a la Virgen María; para que Ella, nos ayude a recordar que todos
juntos formamos la Iglesia que Cristo fundó, y que sepamos vivir en
comunidad, para que así sea eficaz nuestro trabajo pastoral.
Dios los bendiga.
Padre Orlando.

MISIONES CATÓLICAS
La próxima semana realizaremos el Llamado para las Misiones Católicas.
Una manera en que este llamado sirve para apoyar a las diócesis misioneras en Estados Unidos es apoyando la formación de seminaristas en
las diócesis pobres. La bendición de contar con unos seminaristas pone
una carga financiera en estas diócesis ya que la educación de cada seminarista cuesta entre $35 a 40 mil dólares al año. Su apoyo es necesario
para que estos jóvenes puedan regresar y servir en sus parroquias. Por
favor, fortalezca la Iglesia en casa dando una generosa donación al llamado de la próxima semana.
