Two weeks ago, this letter talked about the

youngsters of the parish who had made their First

Communion, and about the road that they have

set out on towards becoming compassionate and

caring persons and full members of the Body of

Christ. I know that all our parents want to be

proactive in this process, and attach great

importance to it, yet sometimes I believe we go

about it in the wrong way.

Studies have shown repeatedly that when adults

behave selfishly, children follow suit, even when

they are encouraged to act generously. We have

all said to our children; “Actions speak louder

than words.” Children know this exquisitely and

intuitively. When the adults around them act

generously and compassionately, studies show that

children acted in the same way, whether

generosity or selflessness was preached to them or

not.

In other words, children learn generosity and

caring and compassion not by listening to what

their parents, teachers or religious figures are

telling them, but by observing what they do. In

fact, these studies record that the most generous

and kind and compassionate children were those

who watched their parents and/or teacher give, or

act compassionately but say nothing.

The message is very clear for parents, as well as

for those of us who are cast in the role of

preachers: If we don’t model generosity, caring

and compassion, preaching it may not help in the

short run, and in the long run, preaching is less

effective that doing while saying nothing.

most proper arrangement, therefore, people who reside in St. Catharine - St.

Margaret Parish have a right to be married here. Others should receive the sac-

rament in their own parishes. The bride, the groom, or their parents must be

registered and living in this Parish for at least one year. Pre-Cana or Engaged

Mother’s Day Tea with Mom The St. Catharine School classrooms were filled with moms last week. The PreK and kindergarten students invited their mothers for a very special Mother’s Day Tea to show them just how special they are. In Mrs. Ford's PreK classroom, students baked treats and served iced tea and lemonade to their moms. Mrs. Nelson's kindergarten students, dressed in their fancy clothes, shared stories about their mothers, sang songs and presented them with a special handmade gift (priceless!) It was a day our SCS moms will never forget!

Bank Catholic High School; 16 were accepted into St Rose

High School; 2 students will be attending Trinity Hall, 3

Students Prove Catholic Schools

Can Do It All

On April 29th, St. Catharine School students participated in Bishop O’Connell's second annual Catholic Schools Day of Service. Along with nearly 9,000 K-8 students across Burlington, Mercer, Monmouth and Ocean Counties, the students proved that Catholic schools really can do it all!

Pre K through 8th grade students participated in projects around the Spring Lake community. Students hosted a breakfast for our first responders, cleaned up Divine Park and the Brown Avenue dunes, performed yard work around the convent and school grounds, wrote cards to our homebound Parishioners and letters to our troops. Even our youngest Pre K students got into the action by cleaning desks in the classrooms. It seems showing appreciation and giving back to the community are lessons you really can learn in school..

This month we are collecting for the Sisters of St. Catharine who minister in this Parish. The two communities that currently serve in the Parish are the Sisters of Charity of St. Elizabeth and the Sisters of Mercy of the Americas. Please use the pink envelopes in the pew and return it during the month of May. Thank you for your generosity in advance. Please be as generous as you can at this time. We will remember you in our prayers, The Sisters of St. Catharine

St. Catharine—St. Margaret

Music Ministry News

We continue our series of preludes and postludes this week, the Feast of the Holy Trinity. The following notes refer to the prelude/postlude at the 4pm, 9am, and 11:30 Masses.

Prelude: Prelude in E-flat, BWV 552/1. J. S. Bach (1685-1750)

Postlude: Fugue in E-flat, BWV 552/2

Today's prelude and postlude are the only organ prelude and fugue published during Bach's lifetime, in the volume Clavier-Ubung III ("third volume for keyboard-training"). Published in 1739, in these pieces Bach is demonstrating his mastery of every contemporary keyboard style, and his interest in depicting theology in music. In the prelude, with its three distinct motives, we can discern both Bach's interest in depicting the Trinity and his groundbreaking blending of three national styles. The piece opens with a grand overture in the French style, depicting the grandeur of God the Father. Jesus, who came down from heaven, is represented by a descending, gal ant figure derived from Italian styles, and the Holy Spirit is portrayed in a rushing wind of sixteenth notes, in traditional Germanic counterpoint. Further reference to the Trinity can be found in the key signature with its three flats, and the symmetrical proportions of the three sections (A/B/A).

The fugue, today's postlude, follows rather the same pattern. First comes a slow fugue, representative of the Father and in the ancient polyphonic style. Then the Son is represented by a faster fugue, full of cross-motives for the hands only. The Spirit is represented by a dance-like fugue, in which all three motives are combined, building an atmosphere of incredible joy.

The subject is identical to the first eight notes of the hymn "0 God Our Help in Ages Past", which has given the fugue the nickname "St. Anne," after the hymntune, but it is unlikely, and certainly unprovable, that Bach knew this tune or had it in mind.
