The Mario Henry Forget Memorial Scholarship is given

to those graduates of our parish who have remained in active

ministry here at Good Shepherd through their senior year of high

school. Mario was an altar server and an active youth leader in

our Vacation Bible School. Mario died in 2003 as the result of a

tragic accident. This scholarship was established in 2013 to hon-

or his memory and to assist in some small way those graduates

who have been faithful to serving our parish community.

Last year’s recipients were Joseph Dubois and Chloe Gard-

ner. This year we will have 4 graduating seniors.

If you would like to make a donation to this scholarship fund,

it will be greatly appreciated. Checks should be made out to

Good Shepherd Parish and dropped in the collection basket in an

envelope marked “Forget Scholarship”. Thank you.

Pentecost Sunday

"God is always more." Have you ever heard that? If

we truly believe that He is infinite, then this statement is worth

exploring. Today, we celebrate the coming of the Holy Spirit in

power upon the early Church. But Pentecost wasn't the first

time the disciples received the Holy Spirit. The Gospel actually

occurs chronologically before Pentecost. Soon after the Resur-

rection, Jesus already "came and stood in their [the disciples']

midst... he breathed on them and said to them, 'Receive the Ho-

ly Spirit.'"

God is always more. Sometimes we might think the

grace of God as one and done. God might break through in peo-

ple's lives, but it's a one-time event on a retreat or preceding a

dramatic conversion of life. But there's always more to come.

Even today's Gospel isn't the first time the breath of God

stirred. In Genesis, it's God's breath that stirs life into Adam in

the garden. Jesus breathes on the Apostles, giving them the

Holy Spirit in the quiet and silence. Later, that breath will stir

into a "driving wind", and the Spirit will descend with

flame...not unlike Moses on Mount Sinai.

God is always more. He has spoken throughout salva-

tion history, and continues to speak into our lives through His

Church and through the Holy Spirit alive in our hearts. This

Pentecost Sunday, let us come before Him with expectant

hearts! Like the disciples in the Gospel and first reading, let us

await what "more" God will do.

A letter from the Mother Teresa Center

to the Good Shepherd Rosary Makers

Dear Margaret FJ and Margaret D and all members of Good

Shepherd Parish Rosary Makers,

Christ’s peace.

Thank you for the beautiful gift of rosaries for our poor, so

carefully made and packaged. Our Lady must be pleased with

the work of your hands. We are very grateful for the way you

are bringing Mary and her poor children together through your

gift of rosaries.

When our poor receive a rosary it is such a precious gift to

them. You have been an instrument of Our Lady on their behalf.

Many of our rosaries are used in Tijuana, Mexico, but as the Sis-

ters and Fathers come from other Missionaries of Charity houses

they stop to take materials, including your rosaries, back with

them or we mail them as requested. These houses are all over the

world in the poorest of the poor locations. This is where your

rosaries will be headed, where the Sisters and Fathers will teach

the poor the beautiful prayer to our Lady.

You and your intentions and all the names on the rosaries are

remembered in our prayers and in a mass at the tomb of Mother

Teresa in Calcutta.

God bless you,

Sr. M. Elisabeth, MC

CAN YOU NOT STAY WITH ME FOR AN HOUR?

St. Mary Faustina Kowalska is quoted as saying in reference to

Adoration, “O King of glory, though you hide your beauty, yet

the eye of my soul rends the veil. I see the angelic choirs giv-

ing you honor without cease.”

You are invited to join us in adoring our Lord in the

Blessed Sacrament, Thursday, June 27 from 6-8 PM at Good

Shepherd Church.

We will include praying the Rosary for our brothers and sisters

in Mitu, Colombia and the building of the church designed to

hold 3,000 parishioners for the indigenous people there.
