Page Two Dear Parishioners, Seven men are going to be ordained to the priesthood in June. One of those is Deacon Sam Fontana who was with us last summer. He will be ordained on Saturday, June 21 at 10:00am at the Cathedral. His irst Mass of Thanksgiving will be that same day at 5:00pm at St. Pius X Church, 201 E Bayou Parkway, Lafayette. He wanted to let you know you are all invited. This is our last week of school and on Tuesday night we have our 8th grade promotion Mass which is the irst one ever for our school. So this is a historic moment in our school and parish history. If any of our Extraordinary Lay Ministers of Holy Communion could serve at the 8:00am Mass even if just once or twice in a semester that would be very helpful. Please contact Cynthia Broussard to let her know if you can do that ASAP. I love you all. Joke of the Week Prayer Request Bobby’s parents tried their best to keep him from acting up during the morning worship hour, but they were losing the battle. Finally the father picked the little fellow and walked sternly up the aisle to apply a little discipline. Just before reaching the foyer, little Bobby called loudly to the congregation, “Pray for me! Pray for me!” In Jesus, Fr. Tom frtom@sts-peter-paul.org mdl

THAT MAN IS YOU!

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION Eastern Christians have no sacrament of “con irmation,” but they have always had the custom of richly anointing the newly baptized inmyron, or sacred chrism. They also give even infants a taste of the Precious Blood, thereby doing away with any notion of “First Communion” in later childhood. In the West, although we too have an anointing with chrism for the newly baptized, for centuries we have normally reserved a second anointing for the bishop, sometimes many years after baptism. There are many reasons for this, not the least of which is the fact that in early times the bishop was the ordinary person to of iciate at baptism, not the presybyter (priest). The bishop did it all, from plunging the catechumens into the font, to pouring chrism over them, to immediately celebrating the Eucharist. When bishops began to cede some of their ministry to the ranks of presbyters, they desired to maintain a strong relationship with baptism. Thus it was decided that the solemn post-baptismal anointing, the laying on of hands, and the prayer for the gifts of the Holy Spirit were to be detached from infant baptism. So, to the present day, we have two anointings after baptism: one by the priest, and the other normally by the bishop. By the ifth century, the word “con irmation” had surfaced to refer to this second anointing. —Rev. James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

THE WAY In today’s Gospel reading we hear part of Jesus’ discourse at the Last Supper as reported in the Gospel of John. “I am the way and the truth and life,” Jesus assures his disciples. At that time they did not understand what he meant; they wanted easy answers. “Just show us the Father,” Philip begged. But the irst and second readings show us how the early church came to understand Jesus’ words. The amazing growth of the church led them to select seven men to do the works of service needed with so many new members. The followers of Jesus had grown in such numbers that Peter could exclaim in his Letter over the fact that Christ, the “rejected stone,” was now the cornerstone on whom the salvation of all the world rests. Down to this present day, he is truly the way, the truth, and the life. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

MARY OUR MOTHER What a joy to remember that Mary is our Mother! Since she loves us and knows our weakness, what have we to fear? —Saint Therese of Lisieux
