Seventh Sunday of Easter
What an exciting time it has been in our parish these last several weeks!
After welcoming our newest Catholics at the Easter Vigil, we have continued to celebrate Easter and the resurrection for
six more weeks and along the way bore witness to young people taking ownership of their faith at Confirmation as well
as some very excited First Communicants. We have continued to serve our friends in need in Oakland Beach and West
Warwick with hot meals, clothing, and fellowship; celebrated the baptisms of several sweet infants; dined with refugee
families at St. Francis of Assisi; and learned about gun violence in Rhode Island and we can do to affect change. Our
parish community has continued to live out our baptismal calls in stewardship, including gathering for a potluck of
everyone involved in ministry in the church; we have enjoyed coffee and homemade treats after Mass together; wrapped
up Religious Education and RCIA for the year; and experienced the joy of a number of new families joining us at Sts.
Rose & Clement.
This list certainly isn’t exhaustive of all of the ministries going on at SSRC and I know it doesn’t even include all of the
events that have happened in our parish since Easter. But if you look at this list, what does it tell you about our parish?
As a community of faith, we are defined not only by what we say we believe, but by how we act on those beliefs that we
hear proclaimed every weekend in the Gospel and in the homily.
This time of Ascension post-resurrection and as we approach Pentecost is exactly when the mission of the church is
emerging. Jesus is clear with the disciples that he wants them to “Go into the whole world
and proclaim the gospel to every creature.” (Mk. 16:15) In fact, these are his last words before he departs the physical
world and ascends to heaven--his charge to those he left behind to fulfill the mission. The disciples and all of us are not
left alone to accomplish this, however. Jesus assures them and us:
But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you,
and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem,
throughout Judea and Samaria,
and to the ends of the earth. (Acts 1:8)
This is his promise, but it is a liminal moment here at the Ascension. The Holy Spirit has not yet descended at Pentecost
and the church as we know it is not quite born. As Jesus takes his leave, we are left in a “space between” where the
mission of the church begins to be formed and where our work as disciples really begins. Those mysterious figures in
white that appear after the Ascension stop the Galileans and ask “Why
are you standing there looking at the sky?” (Acts 1:11) They have to
be called away from looking, not for the wrong thing, but for looking
in the wrong place. God’s work doesn’t end with the Ascension, but
that call to love as God does and to teach and minister now resides
with those of us here on Earth. And that work is the work of love, the
work of accompaniment with the vulnerable and downtrodden, and
of proclamation of the Gospel. After all, “the one who descended is
also the one who ascended far above all the heavens.” (Eph. 4:10)
Would our mission here at Sts. Rose & Clement look recognizable to
Jesus as the early disciples? Our actions as a community reveal us to
be drawn to the margins, focused on welcoming new members, and
emphasizing stewardship as a way of living as disciples. I’d say that’s
pretty close to the work that Jesus himself did on earth and called us
to do likewise.

Happy Mother’s Day to all of our St. Rose mothers and grandmothers! Last Friday I enjoyed meeting so many
grandmothers at Grandparents Day which was heavily attended
as grandparents play a big role in their grandchildren’s lives. I
also have the privilege of working with so many mothers who
despite their responsibilities outside the home still make the time
to volunteer countless hours at school. We see this on a daily basis
at St. Rose as many mothers’ volunteer to help in the cafeteria,
and last week many worked the register at our Bookfair. As we celebrate Mother’s Day this weekend a special thank you to all
our mothers and grandmothers for all they do especially giving
their children and grandchildren the gift of a Catholic education.
This weekend is another busy one at school as our drama
students’ performance of the Spring play Giants in the Sky is taking
place in the parish hall. Students have worked hard to prepare for
this event especially this past week as rehearsals went into the early evening. Our drama program is directed by Mr. JP
Ferragano and I want to thank him for his leadership.
As we are into the mid part of the last trimester students are
undertaking their final STAR assessment test for this school year.
Results will be sent home in print to parents soon. Progress
reports were sent home electronically this week via Rediker as
this provides parents with the information they need to monitor
their child’s(drens) academic performance. Students benefit when educators and parents collaborate together in a positive way. At
St. Rose our teachers work very hard and put in many hours
outside the classroom. Many of them are also mothers and
grandmothers and I wish them a Happy Mother’s Day too.
On Thursday we celebrated Mass at SS Rose and Clement with
the parish as it was Ascension Day. Our Grade 3 class hosted this
event and as usual our Chorus provided us with wonderful music.
One of the many special things that a Catholic education offers students is the opportunity to begin each morning with prayer
and celebrate Mass together. It truly brings the students as well as
the faculty and staff together as a community.
Happy Mother’s Day to all of our mothers and grandmothers!

Mrs. Rachael CzephyaA Prayer for all Mothers,
Thank you, Lord, that you fill a mother’s heart with love,
That you have instilled in her very being the need to protect her children if
at all possible,
Thank you for giving her the gift of nurturing her children, of teaching
them, of comforting them,
for feeding them and making a safe place for them.
For guiding them to be all that God has created them to be.
Fill every mother with love, wisdom and endurance,
with strength and patience and joy.
Give them ability to forgive again and again.
Enable her to rely on You and call upon You, because You will give her all
she needs.
In Your precious and all powerful name, Amen
At 10:30 Mass we welcome back our First Communion students as we
honor Our Blessed Mother Mary. Thank you to all families that joined us
today and may your Mother’s day be filled with love and peace. May God
bless you all.
If you have not registered for next year you can do that at any time during
the summer. You can drop your registration in the basket or bring it to the
church office at anytime. If you need a copy of the registration you can

Send your kids on an impacting island adventure!
At Shipwrecked VBS, kids discover how Jesus rescues us through life's storms. Shipwrecked is filled with incredible
Bible-learning experiences kids see, hear, touch, and even taste! Sciency-Fun Gizmos, team-building games,
cool Bible songs, and tasty treats are just a few of the standout activities that help faith flow into real life. (Since
everything is hands-on, kids might get a little messy. Be sure to send them in play clothes and safe shoes.) Plus, we'll help kids discover how to see evidence of God in everyday life—something we call God Sightings. Get ready to hear that phrase a lot!
Parents, grandparents, and friends are invited to join us at Sail Away Sendoff for each day at 11:50, a daily exploration of our Jesus' rescue!
Once again, we will have a separate area for our younger VBS participants. Children who are ages 3-6 will join us in our Lower Deck Crews. Children ages 7-10 will join us in Upper Deck Crews.Children ages 11-13 are welcome to join us as Junior Crew leaders and those ages 14 and up are welcome to join us as Crew leaders.

adventure as well. If interested in sharing your time and talents, please see
Mrs. Czepyha.
