From the Rector Very Rev. Joseph Tizio, C.Ss.R. Staffed by The Redemptorists I recently read an article in the paper entitled “Signs You Are Con- fident” and what amazed me was that some of the signs of being confident are really signs that you are a good Christian also! Here are some of the signs of confidence. 1) You listen more than you speak: “Truly confident people are quiet and unassuming.” 2) You are willing to take a stand because you are not afraid to be wrong: “Truly confident people do not mind being proved wrong. They feel that finding out what is right is more important than being right.” 3) You avoid the spotlight so it can shine on others: Truly confident people “stand back and let others shine – a confidence boost that helps those people become truly confident too.” 4) You do not criticize other people: “The only comparison a truly confident person makes is to the person she was yesterday and to the person she hopes to someday become.” 5) You are not afraid to look less than perfect: “When you are truly confident you do not mind occasionally being in a situation where you are not at your best.” 6) You admit mistakes: “Confidence breeds sincerity and honesty…Confident people do not mind serving as a cautionary tale.” Certainly, you and I embrace these qualities not to become more confident but to be- come more like Christ who gave his life so that we can live. We embrace these qualities to become more like the Lord who was “meek and humble of heart”. Most importantly, we embrace these qualities because we have been commanded to “love one another as I have loved you”. Sometimes, love means allowing the other to shine, admitting that you are wrong, not criticizing another, and living with sincerity and honesty. In the end, if being a “truly confident person” will make me more like Christ then count me in!

MASS INTENTIONS FROM THE RECTOR
En Español
Recientemente leí un artículo en el artículo titulado “Señales de que estás seguro” y lo que me sorprendió fue que algunas de las señales de estar seguro son señales de que también eres un buen cristiano. Éstos son algunos de los signos de confianza. 1) Escuchas más de lo que hablas: “Las personas verdaderamente seguras son tranquilas y sin pretensiones”. 2) Estás dispuesta a tomar una posición porque no temes estar equivocado: “A las personas verdaderamente confiadas no les importa que se de-muestre lo contrario. Sienten que descubrir qué es lo correcto es más importante que estar correcto “. 3) Evita el foco de at-ención para que pueda brillar en los demás: las personas ver-daderamente confiadas” se quedan atrás y dejan que otros bril-len, un impulso de confianza que ayuda a esas personas a estar realmente confiadas también “. 4) No criticas a otras personas:” La única comparación que hace una persona verdaderamente segura es con la persona que era ayer y con la persona que es-pera que se convierta algún día “. 5) No tienes miedo de parecer menos que perfecto : “Cuando estás realmente seguro de que no te importa estar ocasionalmente en una situación en la que no estás en tu mejor momento”. 6) Admites errores: “La confian-za genera sinceridad y honestidad ... A las personas seguras no les importa servir como una advertencia”.
Ciertamente, tú y yo abrazamos estas cualidades no para tener más confianza sino para ser más como Cristo que dio su vida para que podamos vivir. Abrazamos estas cualidades para ser más como el Señor que fue “manso y humilde de corazón”. Lo más importante es que abrazamos estas cualidades porque se nos ha ordenado “amarnos unos a otros como yo te he amado a ti”. A veces, el amor significa permitir que el otro brille, admitir que estás equivocado, no criticar a otro y vivir con sinceridad y honestidad. Al final, si ser una “persona verdaderamente segu-ra” me hará más como Cristo, ¡entonces cuéntame!
Reflexión“Pero cuando venga, el Espíritu de verdad, Él te guiará a toda la verdad...” (JUAN 16:13)
Jesús envió al Espíritu Santo para ayudarnos a conocer y vivir la verdad. Para prepararnos, necesitamos abrir nuestros corazones para recibir este regalo antes de que podamos darlo. Desarrolla una rutina diaria de oración. Habla y escucha al Espíritu Santo. Esto se hace mejor en silencio, cuando podemos escuchar su respuesta.

Procesión de Corpus Christi
Únase a nosotros el sábado 22 de junio a las 5:30 p.m. para nuestra procesión anual de Corpus Christi. Estaremos proc-esando afuera con el Santísimo Sacramento, celebrando la bendición en criollo, español e inglés. Démosle gracias a Dios por el hermoso regalo de la Eucaristía.
Segunda Coleccion Próximo Fin de SemanaLa segunda colección de la próxima semana será compartida por la Campaña Católica para el Desarrollo Humano (CCHD) y la Campaña de Comunicación Católica (CCC). Estas dos organ-izaciones comunican el Evangelio mediante la promoción de obras de justicia, educación y la dignidad de la vida humana. Sus generosas donaciones les darán a quienes viven en la po-breza el apoyo que necesitan para hacer cambios duraderos y apoyarán nuestras necesidades de comunicación locales, como la programación de la televisión católica.
Oportunidad de MinisterioCada domingo en la misa de las 11:00 am celebramos “La liturgia de la palabra para los niños”. Los niños son despedidos después de la oración de apertura y tenemos catequistas adul-tos que trabajan con los niños explicando el domingo leyendo en inglés de manera que puedan entender, luego regresan a la iglesia para la Liturgia de la Eucaristía. Necesitamos adultos que estén dispuestos a ofrecer tiempo para este maravilloso ministerio. Te entrenaremos y trabajaremos contigo. Si desea más información o desea ofrecer su tiempo, deje su nombre y número de teléfono en la oficina central y en la misión de la iglesia. Cada regalo será utilizado con prudencia y cuidado. ¡Gracias!

Louanges Mariales chaque samedi à 6:30 PM avant la Messe
Le mois de Mai, est le mois de Marie. Le mois pour offrir des roses, et des hymnes à Marie à la manière de l’Ange Gabriel. De ce fait durant tout le mois de mai chaque samedi, à 6:30PM, nous prions avec les Louanges Mariales comme une préparation avant la messe.
Grande Neuvaine à Notre Dame du Perpétuel Secours
La fête de notre patronne, « Notre Dame du Perpétuel Secours » avance à grand pas. Mettons nous en branle pour préparer la fête de Notre Mère qui est toujours prête à venir à notre secours. Cette année encore, pour rehausser l’ampleur de la fête, nous allons avoir Notre Grande Neuvaine en l’honneur de Notre Dame du Perpétuel Secours. Nous commencerons avec la neuvaine le Mardi18 juin à 6 : 30 PM, pour terminer le Mercredi 26 juin.
Et le 27 juin, c’est le grand jour. Le jour de la fête de notre mère Ma-rie, Mère du Perpétuel Secours, « Manman Pèp Ayisyen an »
Comme la liturgie de l’Eglise, nous fait l’obligation de célébrer les fêtes de L’Eglise (les fêtes des Saints et autres) le jour même ; de ce fait, ici dans la basilique toute la journée du 27 Juin sera consacrée à la célébration de notre Sainte Patronne, Notre Dame du Perpétuel Secours avec plusieurs célébrations eucharistiques. Mais la grande messe d’action de grâce pour les Haïtiens se sera à 7 PM.

Jesus sent the Holy Spirit to help us know and live the truth. To pre-pare ourselves, we need to open our hearts to receive this gift be-fore we can give it. Develop a daily prayer routine. Talk and listen to the Holy Spirit. This is best done in silence, when we can hear His response.
Happy Father’s DayWe extend our wishes for a Happy Father’s Day to all the fathers of our community with the hope that our Heavenly Father will bless each of you!
Second Collection Next WeekendNext week’s second collection will be shared by the Catholic Campaign for Human Development (CCHD) and the Catholic Communication Campaign (CCC).
