Marriage: Couples planning to be married should

contact Fr. Davidson at least six months before

the wedding date. This ensures time for adequate

preparation.

Anointing of the Sick: Please call the Parish

Office. It is best to arrange the anointing while

the person who is ill can participate.

2020 Investment Drive is officially underway!

It is called an Investment Drive because there is a "return" on the

monetary contribution: a transformed community!

Please prayerfully consider what amount you can personally invest in

this justice work. The Investment Drive is important. We want to

sustain this work for the long haul - and we do not receive (or solicit)

government funds.

Our All Saints Parish goal this year is $22,000.

We have donated $5,100 toward this goal!

Working together, let us surpass our goal like last year!

CAJE is excited and hopeful as we forge ahead with this year's goals:

Corporate Drive: 30 appointments/ $40,000

Congregational Goal: $75,000

In 2019, nearly 300 individuals from 20 congregations invested nearly

$68,000! Because you invest your time, talent, and treasure, we can

offer valuable training to clergy and leaders at NO COST.

If you would like to invest in this system-changing work, please mail

your check (with your congregation's name in the memo) to:

CAJE

PO Box 18172

Evansville IN 47719

We will soon have the option to invest through PayPal!

We have a NEW date for our 2020 Celebration!

Please mark your calendars.

St. Wendel Catholic Church has graciously offered to host the Justice

Ministry Celebration on Tuesday, August 4, 6:30 pm.

Details are forthcoming.

Hearts & Hands in Ministry

The Society of St. Vincent de Paul

During the COVID-19 crisis, our programs

are working hard to reach out and continue services to

the poor and homeless. Please remember to support

the Society of St. Vincent de Paul so that together we

can bring comfort and peace to our brothers and

sisters who are poor and suffering. Justice Challenge ~ 7th Week of Easter

The Feast of the Visitation reminds us of how Mary,

knowing she was pregnant with the Son of God, still

went to her cousin Elizabeth to help her. It would have

been so easy for Mary to become smug and expect

others to wait on her rather than helping her older

pregnant cousin. But she maintained her humility, and

told Elizabeth that her life was a reflection of God and

God’s greatness. Your challenge this week is to

examine how willing you are to serve others as Mary

did, especially when you feel the need for recognition.

Pray humbly with Mary each day this week by

including the Magnificat (Luke 1:46-55) in your

evening prayers.

Questions of the Week

SCRIPTURE

First Reading

The story of the Church as recorded in the Acts

of the Apostles begins with Jesus’ final instructions

and the Apostles’ witness of his ascension into

heaven. What role does the ascension of Jesus play in

your understanding of “Church?”

Second Reading

Paul speaks of the unity of the church using the

metaphor of the “body” of Christ. Where do you see

the Church most united today?

Gospel Reading

Prior to his ascension, Jesus’ promise to the disciples

was his abiding presence “until the end of the age.”

When do you experience Jesus most present to you?

Lawn Mowers

Mowing season is in full swing again.

And again, we want to pour out our gratitude to

our lawn mowers for taking up the task for this year.

For many of us, one yard is too many,

much less taking on the church property also.

We thank our mowers for their

goodness and generosity.

Mask Sewing

Anchor Industries Needs Volunteers

If you have a sewing machine and some time and are

interested in helping your neighbor…

Anchor Industries needs you!

Anchor Industries has mask kits that contain the fabric,

elastic and directions for sewing masks. Kits are picked

up at Anchor Industries and completed masks are

returned to Anchor Industries. They also have a limited

supply of thread. No specific thread is required.

If you are interested in helping, please contact the

Parish Office.

Judy Wittgen is keeping a list of our volunteers for

Anchor Industries. She will need your name, phone

number and email address.

Then head on out to Anchor Industries,

7701 Highway 41 N

Evansville, IN 47725

At Anchor Industries, Go to the receptionist - look for

the “Main Office” sign on the west side of the plant

which is on the SE corner of Highway 41 & Highway 57.

Thank you to everyone who can help!!

Thank You, Canton Inn A special thank you to Canton Inn for

providing lunch at our Community Meal

God’s love.

Karen Kremer, Angie Echele, Denise Philpot, Barbara

Muth, Kristie Mulvaney, Rick Weber, Kelly Decarli,

Bob Decarli, and Franci Gilles.

…THANK YOU!!!

The Solemnity of Pentecost

Next weekend, May 30-31, we celebrate the Solemnity

of Pentecost. We remember the story of Jesus

promising an Advocate, the Holy Spirit, and what life

was like when the Spirit moved among the disciples.

Acts 2:1-11 and John 20:19-23

Sequence

Veni, Sancte Spiritus

Come, Holy Spirit, come!

And from your celestial home

Shed a ray of light divine!

Come, Father of the poor!

Come, source of all our store!

Come, within our bosoms shine.

You, of comforters the best;

You, the soul’s most welcome guest;

Sweet refreshment here below;

In our labor, rest most sweet;

Grateful coolness in the heat;

Solace in the midst of woe.

O most blessed Light divine,

Shine within these hearts of yours,

And our inmost being fill!

Where you are not, we have naught,

Nothing good in deed or thought,

Nothing free from taint of ill.

Heal our wounds, our strength renew;

On our dryness pour your dew;

Wash the stains of guilt away:

Bend the stubborn heart and will;

Melt the frozen, warm the chill;

Guide the steps that go astray.

On the faithful, who adore

And confess you, evermore

In your sevenfold gift descend;

Give them virtue’s sure reward;

Give them your salvation, Lord;

Give them joys that never end. Amen.

Alleluia.

Consider spending some quiet time in prayer listening

to one of these…

Joy on Earth Taizé, Veni, Sancte, Spiritus

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXwzKtUHFHs

Taizé, Veni, Sancte, Spiritus

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1fR4SV55qg

Just wondering….during this pandemic…

anticipating our celebration of Pentecost…

How have we seen the Holy Spirit moving in our lives?

Have we been made aware of God in any new ways?

Have we had time to grow our relationship with God?

How have we spread the Good News of Christ?

How has this time of pandemic grown us in our faith?

RCIA Inquiry

Is something tugging within you?

Are you searching for something deeper: peace,

hope, God’s love, Christ?

Are you wanting to explore the Catholic Faith?

Or do you know someone not baptized or a non-

Catholic Christian searching for something more?

We are here to welcome you and walk with you in

this search and answer questions “No strings” inquiry.

All Saints Women’s Group

Our women’s group connected with a

Zoom meeting on May 18th. We opened

our meeting with prayer and shared ideas on ways

to support our parish community. Some of our ideas

pots of flowers with a card to our homebound

parishioners. We closed the meeting with prayer

intentions for our friends, family, neighbors, and

loved ones.
