Pentecost Sunday The Easter flame opens up this day to Pentecostal fire as we celebrate
the sending of the Spirit who makes us God’s new creation. There is no
return to business as usual, through the action of the Holy Spirit we stand
now, as Jesus did, proclaiming in word and deed the saving love of God
and the coming of God’s reign. Today is not the end of a season, but a
celebration of the mission for which we were baptized. Let our alleluias
continue to ring as we continue this great mission given us by God!
Domingo de Pentecostés La llama de la pascua abre paso hoy al fuego Pentecostal mientras cel-

No existe un regreso a la vida usual, a través de la acción del Espíritu
Santo, estamos ahora, como lo hizo Jesús, proclamando de palabra y de
hecho el amor salvífico de Dios y la llegada del reino de Dios. Hoy no
marca el final de la temporada, sino una celebración de la misión para la
cual fuimos bautizados ¡Que continúen sonando nuestros aleluyas mien-
tras continuamos esta gran misión que nos ha dado Dios!

"Marriage is not a sprint" presented by Jon & Hilary Olson
(World Marriage Encounter, Central TX)
If you are going to run a marathon, training has to become a
daily habit or you won’t be able to finish the race - you need to
run every day. Likewise, marriage is not a sprint of frenetic
activity for a short period of time and then it’s over. You don’t
just sprint to the altar and then everything else takes care of
itself. It’s a marathon of every day ‘I dos’ taking advantage of
opportunities to sacrifice and doing things for your spouse. In
this presentation, we will explore ways in which we can 'run
the distance' in our marriage by training every day.
Volunteer of the month for April
Congrats to Crescencio Vega. He was nominated for his many
years of dedication to the parish as a leader for the Spanish
music. You can always count on him to lead music for all litur-
gical events or wherever he is needed. He has served on the
committee for parish festivals in the past and continues to con-
tribute to its success every year. He is very generous with his
time and talents and this parish community appreciates every-
thing he does.
