If you think you might like to attend, please drop us a note in the collection basked or simply talk to Fr. Sal to sign up, so we will know how many workbooks to order.
ALL ARE WELCOME!
ATTENTION
UKRAINIAN CATHOLIC YOUTH BORN BETWEEN 1983 AND 2003
In the fall of this year there will take place a Synod of Bishops in Rome with the theme "Youth, Faith, and Vocational Discernment." One of the delegates at the Synod is Bishop Bryan Bayda of the Ukrainian Catholic Eparchy of Saskatoon in Canada. The Youth Ministry office of the Eparchy of Saskatoon developed an online questionnaire for the Ukrainian Catholic youth worldwide, born between 1983 and 2003, the purpose of which is "to convey to the Holy Father and other delegates the thoughts, needs, and aspirations of our Ukrainian Catholic youth around the world so their voices can be heard and taken into account." The survey can be found by clicking on the following link:

BIRTHDAY BLESSINGS
Tuesday, May 22nd is a special day for our beloved Bishop. His Grace Bohdan Danylo, is celebrating another year of life! May our Gracious God bestow upon our shepherd countless blessings and grant him health, peace, courage, strength, and wisdom as he continues his ministry, guiding and leading our eparchy. Please keep Bishop Bohdan in your prayers.
Happy Birthday, Bishop Bohdan! Mnohaya lita!
PENTECOST
The descent of the Holy Spirit on Pentecost was a powerful experience. Those same disciples, those simple fishermen, who often misunderstood what Jesus said and did, were strengthened to preach Him as God and Lord, and to die in His Name if necessary. And, as we hear sung in church on the feast of Pentecost, those simple fishermen were enlightened, so that they and the whole Church might praise and preach the Trinity (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit), one God in three Persons. Join us as we celebrate the culmination, the fulfillment, the Passover, of our deliverance from sin, slavery, bondage, and death, as we call upon the power and might of the Holy Spirit, offering our very lives as a pleasing sacrifice of new fruit, so that we might praise and proclaim our God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and that He might work His wonders in us, as He has always done with His faithful friends.
