Blest be God the Father, and the Only Begotten Son of God, and also the Holy Spirit, for he has shown his merciful love.

PENITENTIAL ACT I confess to almighty God
and to you, my brothers and sisters,
that I have greatly sinned,
in my thoughts and in my words,
in what I have done
and in what I have failed to do,
(and striking their breast, they say)
through my fault, through my fault,
through my most grievous fault;
therefore I ask blessed Mary ever-Virgin,
all the Angels and Saints,
and you, my brothers and sisters,
to pray for me to the Lord our God.

HOMILY CREED
I believe in one God, the Father almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
of all things visible and invisible.
I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ,
the Only Begotten Son of God,
born of the Father before all ages.
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made,
consubstantial with the Father;
through him all things were made.
For us men and for our salvation
he came down from heaven,
(all bow through “and became man”) and by the Holy Spirit
was incarnate of the Virgin Mary,
and became man.
For our sake he was crucified
under Pontius Pilate
he suffered death and was buried,
and rose again on the third day
in accordance with the Scriptures.
He ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory to judge
the living and the dead
and his kingdom will have no end.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the Lord, the giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son,
who with the Father and the Son
is adored and glorified,
who has spoken through the prophets.
I believe in one, holy, catholic
and apostolic Church.
I confess one Baptism
for the forgiveness of sins
and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead
and the life of the world to come.
Amen.

This past week I met with my surgeon and had the staples and stitches removed from the surgical wound in my side. It looks as if the incision is healing properly and I am grateful to be finished with all the cutting, suturing, and hospital stays. There were a few days after surgery when I was pretty miserable and it turns out that I had a “bad bacteria” that was present in my colon and so I began a 14 day regimen of antibiotics to get things back to normal. I remain on blood thinners for the clots in my lungs which will continue for the next four months. All in all, however, I am in good shape and am very excited to get back to a somewhat regular life. Thanks be to God!
My medical team tells me that the next five years will be crucial in terms of monitoring for a recurrence of cancer. I will have regularly scheduled scans and procedures to make
sure that my body is free of the disease. My risk for getting cancer again is obviously higher than normal and thus the source of some lingering anxiety for me. That being said, the intercession of the Blessed Mother and the Saints has brought me this far which gives me great hope for the future.
Speaking of the saints, I recently received a set of prayers to St. Peregrine who is the patron saint of cancer patients. I would like to share with you one of those prayers with the hope that you would join me in praying for all those members of our parish who are afflicted with this disease. While my battle with cancer has been fairly public, many of our brothers and sisters struggle in a more private manner. Let us remember ALL the sick and entrust them to Jesus the Divine Healer:
O God, our heavenly Father,
source of all good and hope for the sick, you sent your Son into the world to take our sufferings upon himself
and to give us life to the full. Look kindly, we pray, on those who are suffering in body and in spirit, and put
their trust in your saving help. Through the intercession of St. Peregrine, Servant of Mary, who showed
patience and strength in his infirmity, send your healing grace to them.
We beg you for an increase in faith, that you will teach us the wisdom of the cross.
Help us to face the trials of life with courageous hearts, that we may never lose confidence in you. Help us to
carry every burden of suffering, following the example of St. Peregrine. As we stand by the cross of your
crucified Son, may we receive comforting strength, with peace and serenity from Him, who lives and reigns
with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, forever and ever. Amen.
Asking for the prayers of Our Lady of Lourdes, I remain,
Sincerely yours in Christ,
Rev. Darrin Connall Rector
Today’s psalm reminds us that we have been crowned
with glory and honor and given rule over the works of
God’s hands. But we must be good stewards, for the
Lord will surely hold us accountable for the use of
those gifts!

Scriptural Reflection May 22, 2016 — The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity
Prv 8: 22-31; Ps 8: 4-9; Rom 5: 1-5; Jn: 16: 12-15
Today we celebrate the Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity. That means we are celebrating God on this holy day. In the Catholic Church a solemnity is the highest ranking holy day possible (followed by a feast and a memorial). The Most Holy Trinity is the central mystery of our Catholic faith.
As Catholics we acknowledge the Holy Trinity when we arrive in a church, and several times during our liturgies as well as other times. Every time we make the sign of the cross, every time we pray most likely, we are expressing our faith in the Trinity and our faith that the Trinity was revealed by Jesus on the Cross. One part of stewardship is knowing our traditions and the meanings behind them.
Making the sign of the Cross should never be an empty gesture on our parts. Jesus told us that if we love Him, God (the Trinity) will come and dwell within us. More than once St. Paul reminds us that we are “temples of the
living God.” God is within each and every one of us. Do we realize that? Do we live out that truth? Today’s feast confronts us to examine ourselves and our lives. As good stewards we need to live with the certainty that the Blessed Trinity is present in us. Then we need to reflect that presence.
Pope Francis, in his homily on the Feast of the Holy Trinity in 2013, said, “In today’s feast we praise God for His glory is immense. We praise Him and thank Him for He is love, and He calls us to embrace Him and those around us with that love.”
Congratulations and welcome to our newest member in baptism:
Jaaziel Lewis Taylor, daughter of Jeff
Taylor & Marianne Jose-Jacinto was
baptized Sunday, May 22, 2016.
Crime on the Cathedral Campus
In just the last 10 days, we have witnessed a spike in criminal activity on our Cathedral Campus. Spokane Police officers responded to reports of a man lurking in the women’s bathroom whom they promptly removed. In addition, security cameras in the Cathedral recorded the theft of our bronze consecration bells used at Mass. The theft happened in broad daylight. The video was turned over to police for investigation. Criminal activity also included a burglary of the Cathedral Rectory when a young man climbed to the third story and entered the window of Fr. Connall’s private quarters. The thief entered his bedroom and emptied his wallet while Father was in the next room watching T.V. and recovering from surgery. Father Connall confronted the man as he was climbing back out the window and down the fire escape. Spokane Police responded and took fingerprints from the window. Parishioners are encouraged to be especially vigilant regarding questionable activity on our campus. Please do not hesitate to call Crime Check if something seems suspicious (509-456-2233) or 911 when there is an obvious emergency.
Parking Reminder
If you have double-parked someone during Mass, please be sure to move your car promptly after Mass. Please also keep in mind that emergency vehicles must be able to enter the lot (please don’t block the entrances), and that there is a $450 fine for blocking in a handicap parking spot.
