Parent Meeting for Baptism: Tuesday May 30th 7pm in Staff Room
Week 4 15th - 19th May
This Sunday we celebrate the Ascension of Jesus.
What is this and what does it mean?
The Ascension refers to the day celebrated 40 days after Easter when Catholics celebrate the fact that Jesus returns to God after being with his disciples after the resurrection. It is a central element of Catholic tradition and is included in the creed recited at Mass each Sunday.
Why go to Mass every Sunday?
Why go to Mass every Sunday?
Each and every Sunday over a billion Catholics worldwide are asked to go to a Sunday mass. Why? It is one of the most basic things required of Catholics. Participating in the community celebration of Sunday Mass is a witness to belonging to the Body of Christ and of being faithful to God.
It is In keeping with Jesus’ instruction to keep the Ten Commandments. “Remember to keep holy the Sabbath day” This third Commandment falls under the category of loving the Lord, our God, with all our heart, all our soul, and all our mind. Jesus is telling us still to keep the Holy Day Sabbath.
When we go to Mass on Sunday, we are acknowledging the importance of the Lord’s Day in our lives.
