FIRST HOLY COMMUNION — This Sunday at 2:30 pm, we celebrate 63 young boys and girls as

they prepare to enter a special relationship with Jesus. The First Communion class is invited to partici-

pate in the procession in honour of the Feast of Corpus Christi next Sunday after the 12 noon Mass.

Please pray for the First Communicants:

The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity In the life of the Church, we have come full circle with this feast; we have celebrated God’s great love for us in

sending the Son, Jesus; we have celebrated his life, death and Resurrection; we have celebrated his Ascension

and last week, we came full tilt in the celebration of Pentecost. Now we celebrate the TRINITY. The Trinity is

the fundamental doctrine of the Church that is scripturally based; it is the revealed truth from the Father

(Burning Bush), from the Son (the Son sent) and of the Spirit (I send the Paraclete). The Trinity is the sum and

totality of God: the Creator, the Saviour and the Sanctifier. The Trinity is a mystery, a partially exposed truth

which calls on faith to complete; the Trinity is the teaching of God, three persons in one Godhead, three person-

alities in one entity, but a heavenly being. There can be much difficulty in our understanding of this mystery when

we try to speak of this other worldly, divine being in our human language because this human language limits us

and limits our understanding. Oftentimes in the study of God we have to let go of our intellectual capacity to

fathom the unfathomable and lean on our faith understanding and say, “I accept! I believe!” This is not the easi-

est thing to do in our world and at our time when we want to be able to reach out and touch everything. Be that

as it may be, I can still say in faith and I hope that you can do the same that, “God is in the heavens and all’s right

with the world.” May the Holy Trinity, Father, Son and Spirit protect us and guide us always!

The Procession on the Feast of Corpus Christi Next weekend we celebrate the titular feast of the parish. This feast is more than 1000 years old and cele-

brates, “The Body and Blood of Christ”. In past times, the tradition of a public procession with the Monstrance

with Christ through the streets of the Parish (town) was the normative form of praise to Jesus. We will bring

this to fruition with “a Walk with Jesus” around the edge of the parish (Curry, McKay, Dominion & Cabana) after

the 12 noon Mass. We will finish with benediction and a reception. God bless all of us next week on our special

Feast Day.

There is a group of parishioners who pray for the sick everyday. To add or remove

someone's name, please call Sharon Arsenault at 519-972-1244.

For the sick: Lauren Dagenais, Claudia Symchyshyn, Douglas Kerr, Elise Kel-ler Oran, Millie Steer, Anna Mecher, Baby Amelia Cachia, Tiffa-ny Baptie, Rene Brochert, Phil Fitzsimmons, Isabella Melo, Melissa Miner, Donna Marra, Tim Gravel, Doug Lloyd, Maddox Chartier-Linton, Mary Koncovy, Joan Goulet, Thérèse Bom-bardier, Brad Bertram, Anita Renaud, Helen Bedard, Mason Howatt, Martha Lloyd, Walter Cunningham, Kiki Ugorji, Gladys Rodricks, Dorothy Iler, Cheryl Bondy, Ferd Vuksani, Rita Rudge, Rosa Maria Santos, Ryan Fuerth, Miranda Mullins, Tina Paquin, Ted Alexander, Lou Naccarato, Richard Martin, Thomas Four-nier, Elsa & Irene Tejada, John Noade, Eric Zorzit, Phyllis Park, Jamie Caille, Shirley Bondy, Cheryl Jobin Pancerny, Marilyn Langbridge, Lee Anne Schuchard, Rick MacDonald, Peggy Ramey, Dot Grant, Nellie Siddall, Barbara Hooper, Mike Malerba, Cesaris, Ricardo, Andoni and their families, Elizabeth Wong
