Worship and Doubt
written by Colleen Jurkiewicz Dorman
Worship is a relationship, not a transaction. When Jesus instructed his followers to make disciples of all nations, “teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you,” he knew that sometimes they would have to rely on the muscle memory of worship.

Music for
Pentecost

Dear Fellow Parishioners:

This weekend we celebrate Pentecost and the end of the Easter season and we just got the word that the congregation can sing inside the church, so we will be going back to singing the Mass parts! Hooray! Holy Spirit, come!

There is one song this week that is completely new to us, ‘In The Silence’  https://youtu.be/1FrdWlnMOOI and one old one that we haven’t sung in a very long time, ‘Be the Hands, the Heart of God’ https://youtu.be/t8uCfdlno9w. You can find the words to these and all the other music in this attachment.

All of my music to share this week is honoring the Holy Spirit. I’m going to start with the more traditional music and move on from there.

The Power of Pentecost
written by Allison Gingras
On Pentecost, we celebrate the birthday of the Church, that glorious moment the Holy Spirit “appeared to them tongues as of fire, which parted and came to rest on each one of them.” In the Holy Spirit, God dwells not just among us but within us.
Each week we share a reflection on the Sunday readings, provided by the publishers of our bulletin.

Music for
The Ascension of the Lord

Dear Fellow Parishioners,

Happy Ascension Sunday! This week’s readings tell us about Jesus going up into heaven to sit at the right hand of God after telling the disciples to go out and proclaim the Gospel to the whole world. The only song for Mass that’s truly new is our opening hymn, ‘The Risen Christ’ https://youtu.be/h5LYpJEcyso. We’ll be singing just the first and third verses, so if you listen to the link you’ll notice something missing. I’ve provided the words to those verses and all the other songs in this attachment.

I’ve included some old (some very old) songs and some new in my songs to share this week. I hope you enjoy them!

As a reflection on the psalm, we have three songs about his majesty:

Have a beautiful and blessed week.

The Good News of Transformation
written by Rev. Mark Suslenko
The day-to-day challenges of life find us struggling with our incompleteness. Our unenlightened and dimly lit eyes fail to see the beauty of what is yet to be. Imagine how differently we would feel and how creative we would become if we gave more attention to who we are becoming!
Each week we will be sharing a reflection on the Sunday readings at Mass, provided by the publishers of our bulletin.
