The Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ – May 29, 2016

Mission Statement We, the Christ-centered community of Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton Parish, commit ourselves to be a

warm and welcoming Catholic community of faith; proclaiming the message of Jesus through a

strong and vital sacramental life, active ministry, and loving outreach.

Dear Friends,

“And when the leftover fragments were picked up, they filled twelve wicker baskets.” Today’s

Gospel shows us that Jesus wants to do more than satisfy our needs. He wants to give us an

experience of fullness and abundance. He not only miraculously fed the crowd of thousands; he

also provided enough to make a mountain of leftovers. More than they needed, more than they

ever expected. That’s what Jesus gave. And it’s what he continues to give us every time we

receive the Eucharist. This too is a miraculous meal. Like the multiplication of five loaves and

two fish, Jesus turns something small—bread and wine—into something abundant and over

owing: his body, blood, soul, and divinity.

Through this sacrament we experience the gift of union with Jesus and the resulting graces that

come from encountering him. Just like the crowds gathered that day in a deserted place, we come

to Jesus with our emptiness—our needs, our weaknesses, our fears—and he fills us up until we

too are “satisfied.” Receiving the Lord in the Eucharist is a momentous miracle and an earthly glimpse into heaven. May

today’s celebration help remind us to be ever grateful for this most glorious gift.

In observance of Memorial Day this Monday, the parish office will be closed, and we will not have 9:00 a.m. Mass. Have

a safe and relaxing holiday!

Many thanks to our volunteers in Faith Formation, beginning with Bible Babies: Pat Mlynarski, Jennifer Taylor, Brooke

Doerfler, Cathryn Nash and Jerlisa Johnson. Children’s Liturgy of the Word: Diane Conley, Catherine Gorzkowski,

Sally Fortman, Tom Lazo, Ben Lorenz, Tim Mikules, Jeffrey Phillips, Chris Seibold and Brendan Walls. Our K-5

Catechists: Christine Judd, Jennifer Ator, Christine Chadwick, Sarah Koziel, Katy Voight-Nobis, Maureen Heyneman,

Jennifer Przydzial, Melissa Silva-Wilson, Dcn. Michael Drevitch, Elizabeth Wright, Christine Allen, Kristen Poland,

Dente Poland, Michael Rafter, Deanna Kouroupis, Christine Pinto, Ashley Harding, Lesley Hill, Michelle Garino, John

Frieland and Julia Castle. Middle School Youth Ministers: Sarah Foote, Kevin McCoy, Julia Nunno-Miller and Jo Ann

McCardell. Also helping to keep our Thursday night Faith Formation running smoothly, our Door and Hall Monitors:

Becky Baltimore, Christi Bruner, Stacey Lucas, Jerlisa Johnson, Joanne Kennedy, Kim Mahar, Katherine Nicol, Jennifer

Prevo and Gloria Ryan; the Substitutes: Robert Murphy, Leanne McCullough and Lawrence Priebe. Finally, a special

thank you to our High School Student Volunteers: Ariel McCoy, Ethan Hill, Meghan Ronan, Peyton Kenney, Katie

Sheehan and Marissa Sison. This Saturday, at the 4:30 Mass, our last group of First Communicants for 2016 is welcomed

to the table of the Lord! Thank you to the Sacramental Preparation Catechists: Diane Conley, David Gayvert and John

Wcislo, as well as the second grade Catechists and Catholic School teachers who participated in the spiritual growth of

these children.

Some of these talented catechists have been working with Seton’s children for years, and will be moving on to other

endeavors. If you have an interest in helping with Faith Formation in any way, consider attending the Happy Hour, here in

the Fr. Edward Connelly Parish Center on Friday, June 3, 2016, 6:30-8:30 p.m. RSVP to mary.oshiro@seaseton.org.

Many thanks to our Altar Servers, under the direction of Jack McCabe, for their excellent ministry to our parish,

especially extra servers needed for the 11:00 a.m. Mass. Not only does music enhance our liturgy, but the additional

servers at the 11:00 a.m. assist with the gospel procession and incensing the Sacrament during the Eucharistic Prayer.

When they do this they heighten our attention and our senses to Word and Sacrament, where Jesus is truly present among

us. After the 11:00 a.m. Mass this weekend the extra servers will take a much needed break until they start back again in

September. Please show your appreciation to our servers after Mass throughout the year. Thanks also to their parents for

bringing them to their training sessions and assigned Masses. I am proud of their hard work! If you or your child would

like to serve at the Lord's altar or volunteer in another capacity, please call the Parish Office or email me at

Paul.Sparklin@seaseton.org.

Peace,

Fr. Paul

Youth & Young Adult Ministry

Wednesday Night Drop-In’s: The Youth Room opens for High

School Students on Wednesdays from 7:30-9:00 p.m. There’s

no set agenda…some students bring homework and even get

help from older students, some just come to de-stress and hang

out with friends for an evening, sometimes a topic of faith

comes up and we end up having a deep discussion while other

times the conversation is light. If you’re looking for community

and to build friendships with other Catholic teens, come join us!

Liturgy Notes

Happy Memorial Day! Next weekend we start Ordinary Time in

earnest, with no Solemnities like the Divine Mercy, Pentecost, Trinity

and Corpus Christi superseding the numbered weeks of our

liturgical lives. We had the 5th Sunday in Ordinary Time February 10,

and we jump to the 10th Sunday next weekend. We're going to sing the

Mass of Creation Gloria (#193), the Mass of Light Gospel Acclamation

(#340), and the Community Mass for our Liturgy of the

Eucharist (##370 - 372, and 389). Beginning this year we're going to

use Penitential Act B, which is the second option of #168. We've sung

Rite A and C before during Advent and Lent, but never Rite B. We'll be practicing it this weekend. Please try to memorize it.

There's a wonderful coincidence of church and state this

weekend. Corpus Christi - "Do this in memory of me", and Memorial

Day "Lest we forget". I shall be in Boston for one of Marcia's niece's

weddings, but on Sunday we'll be at the National Cemetery in Bourne,

dressing the graves of all our loved ones who paid the ultimate price. I

enjoyed listening to my old friend (Cardinal) Vincent Nichols on the

BBC talk about the pilgrimage back to Canterbury of the 800 year-

old remains of St Thomas a Becket from their shrine in Hungary. The

Archbishop of Westminster described Thomas as a model of those

Christians who stood up to the prevailing power of the time,

(our history books in England described him as a traitor who put the

interests of the Pope before his country) reminding us that the Gospel is

counter-cultural. But this weekend we can think about our dearly

departed, who followed Christ in giving their all, for as John 15:13 tells

us "there is no greater love than to lay down one's life for a

friend." The 5.30 Mass music group would love to hear what you think

of their ministry. Enter the link below into your search engine as it's

written. http://bit.ly/5-30SETONReview16 don’t worry, it's not too

hard. Good luck - the 5.30 group!

SUNDAY, MAY 29, 2016 SOLEMNITY OF THE MOST HOLY BODY AND BLOOD

OF CHRIST (CORPUS CHRISTI)

The power of a single voice - The feast of Corpus Christi is

popular and moving because it is simple and direct—it’s all about the

Eucharist, one of the greatest treasures of Catholicism. Yet the feast

would not exist were it not for the efforts of Juliana of Liège, a

Norbertine canoness born in 1191 in Liège, Belgium, a city where there

were groups of women dedicated to Eucharistic worship. She had a

vision of a full moon with one dark spot signifying the lack of a feast

day solely dedicated to the Eucharist. She shared her vision and

eventually vision became reality. What gift can you envision giving to

your community?

TODAY’S READINGS: Genesis 14:18-20; 1 Corinthians 11:23-26; Luke

9:11b-17 (169). “Jesus spoke to the crowds about the kingdom of God.”

MONDAY, MAY 30

Heal the wounds of war - On this Memorial Day, as you remember

those who gave their lives serving their country; also keep in your heart

those who have lost loved ones, those struggling with physical and

emotional wounds, and all other victims of war. Pray and work for the

reconciliation of divided peoples and for peace in your community and

around the world. The U.S. bishops urge all to pray on this day:

“Banish violence from our midst and wipe away our tears, that we may

all deserve to be called your sons and daughters.”

TODAY’S READINGS: 2 Peter 1:2-7; Mark 12:1-12 (353). “May grace and peace be yours in abundance through knowledge of God and of Jesus our

Lord.”

TUESDAY, MAY 31

FEAST OF THE VISITATION OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY

Look who’s here! A friend comes to visit. Just the thought can

redeem the darkest day! Whether we’re confined by illness, grieving a

loss, in need of practical assistance, or just pleasantly surprised by a

familiar face at the door, the time of visitation is a bright hour of

consolation. The encounter between Mary and Elizabeth was more than

the welcome arrival of help for an aged mother’s third trimester. God’s

saving power intersected these two lives and gave them to each other,

to share the joy. Bring good news to someone today. TODAY’S READINGS: Zephaniah 3:14-18a or Romans 12:9-16; Luke 1:39-56 (572). “Mary set out . . . in haste to a town of Judah, where she entered

the house of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth.”

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 1 FEAST OF JUSTIN, MARTYR

What’s the good Word? Christian theology owes a debt to the pre-

Christian philosophies of Plato and Aristotle. Early church theologian

Justin was able to see connections between the great philosophers of

Greek antiquity and the wisdom revealed by Jesus. The prologue of

John’s Gospel speaks of Jesus as “Logos,” the preexisting Word. Justin

believed that the “seeds of Christianity” found in thinkers such as Plato

or Aristotle were evidence of the Logos acting in history before

Christ’s incarnation. Whether or not Plato and Aristotle were

“unknowing Christians,” we are knowing Christians. Spend some time

with the Word today. TODAY’S READINGS: 2 Timothy 1:1-3, 6-12; Mark 12:18-27 (355). “Are

you not misled because you do not know the scriptures or the power of

God?”

THURSDAY, JUNE 2 FEAST OF MARCELLINUS AND PETER, MARTYRS

Exercise with caution - We don’t know a lot about Marcellinus and

Peter, martyred in 304, but we know Peter was an exorcist, an often

misunderstood or over-dramatized office of church ministry. The rite

itself was revised in 1999 for the first time since 1614, and modern

practice counsels priests empowered to perform an exorcism to first

make sure they are dealing with genuine possession rather than mental

illness. The Code of Canon Law states that the bishop is to give

permission to perform the rite to a priest “who has piety, knowledge,

prudence, and integrity of life.” We rely on Jesus to protect us from the

power of evil, and the church stands by our side should we need

assistance in doing so. TODAY’S READINGS: 2 Timothy 2:8-15; Mark 12:28-34 (356). “You are

not far from the kingdom of God.”

FRIDAY, JUNE 3 SOLEMNITY OF THE MOST SACRED HEART OF JESUS

Have a heart that never stops - To do something “without heart”

means to live without passion or purpose. “In the Heart of Christ,”

Saint John Paul II wrote, a person’s heart “learns to know the genuine

and unique meaning” of life and destiny: “to unite the filial love for

God and the love of neighbor.” The Sacred Heart reminds us that Jesus

had a heart just like ours; that his acts of love aren’t beyond us, but are

already in us, in every loving gesture, relationship, and experience.

This is the heart of what gives us life—a heart whose love never stops

beating in us. TODAY’S READINGS: Ezekiel 34:11-16; Romans 5:5b-11; Luke 15:3-7

(172). “The love of God has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit that has been given to us.”

SATURDAY, JUNE 4

MEMORIAL OF THE IMMACULATE HEART

OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY

See with a mother’s heart - “In a unique way the face of the Son

belongs to Mary,” Saint John Paul II wrote in Rosarium Virginis

Mariae (“The Rosary of the Virgin Mary”). Jesus was the child she

gazed upon in the manger, the one she pondered in her heart throughout

her life. Her heart was filled with a love for him that embraced the pain

of the Passion and the joy of the Resurrection. Such love, held in her

Immaculate Heart, is an example to us all of a love that gives life, that’s

meant to be cherished, adored, and that ultimately longs to lead us back

to her Son over and over again. TODAY’S READINGS: 2 Timothy 4:1-8 (358); Luke 2:41-51 (573). “And his

mother kept all these things in her heart.”
