If you would like to volunteer, please contact: Mariem Rigonan: (213) 793 - 1028 JOURNEY OF FAITH We are on a long and eventful journey. Today’s readings for Trinity Sunday succinctly cover the depth and breadth of our human travels. The very beginnings of our journey are revealed in the reading from Proverbs. God’s plan filled with divine wisdom was born before the earth was made. In today’s Gospel, Jesus speaks of his own personal journey. He has come from the Father and will return to the Father. Only then will the Advocate—the Spirit of Truth—take us onward. This does not diminish the fact that the journey will be hard. The very setting of the Gospel is the night before Jesus died. As Saint Paul writes to the Romans, “We even boast of our afflictions, knowing that affliction produces endurance, and endurance, proven character, and proven character, hope” (Romans 5:3-4). Ultimately, our human journey is modeled by the Holy Trinity—a family of love among Father, Son, and Spirit that we are all called to emulate. SAVE THE DATE Retirement Mass for Msgr.

He told his people, “While I am frightened by what I am for you, then I am consoled by what I am with you. For you I am a bishop, with you I am a Christian.” He had his priorities right, and also knew that everyone coming from the water arises with a ministry, a specific role, in bringing about God’s kingdom. If we were asked to purge English of Greek vocabulary, we would gain an insight into key ministries in our church. Bishop, from the Greek episkopos, would become simply “overseer;” priest, from the Greek presybter, would become “elder;” and deacon, from the Greek diakonos, would be “servant.” Each title stands in relationship to all the baptized, serving the community, helping it to be the Body of Christ. In our deepest tradition, each of these ordained ministries is attuned to help us become our best selves, to hunger and thirst for the coming of God’s kingdom. The goal for each one of us is to be able to recognize the presence of Christ in worship and in service. Although only some of us are ordained to ministry, each of us is called to ministry.

Archdiocese provides resources for parishioners to learn more The Archdiocese of Los Angeles recently published an updated version of the annual brochure called Working Together to Prevent Child Sexual Abuse. This brochure provides parishioners with a list of policies and procedures regarding sexual abuse and education in the Catholic Church, as well as local programs and resources that work to protect abuse. For a copy of the 2016 brochure, check your parish vestibule, email jvienna@la-archdiocese.org or call (213) 6377227. Jubilee Year of Mercy May 22, 2016 Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity The word mercy, Pope Francis declared in his announcement of the Jubilee Year of Mercy, “reveals the very mystery of the Most Holy Trinity” (Misericordiae Vultus, 2). For mercy is how God comes to meet us; mercy is the fundamental law helping us recognize everyone as brothers and sisters; mercy is the bridge connecting God and humanity, opening our hearts to the hope of being loved forever despite our sinfulness. God’s self-revelation as a life-giving, love-sharing Trinity of Persons draws us closer to God in friendship and communion. Both Judaism and Islam consider mercy one of God’s most important attributes. Israel unceasingly proclaims God boundless in mercy. Islam addresses the Creator as “Merciful and Kind,” believing divine mercy limitless, its doors always open. May this Jubilee Year of Mercy, Pope Francis prays, open us to more fervent dialogue, deepen our mutual understanding, eliminate all closed-minded disrespect, and drive out every form of violence and discrimination. —Peter Scagnelli, Copyright © J.

Año Jubilar de la Misericordia 22 de mayo de 2016 Solemnidad de la Santísima Trinidad En la Bula papal Misericordiae Vultus, 2, el Papa Francisco dice que la misericordia “es la palabra que revela el misterio de la Santísima Trinidad”. Pues la misericordia es cómo Dios viene a nuestro encuentro; misericordia es la ley fundamental que nos ayuda a reconocernos como hermanos y hermanas misericordia es el puente que conecta a Dios con la humanidad, abriendo nuestros corazones a laesperanza de ser amados por siempre pese a nuestras ofensas. La revelación de Dios hacia nosotros es un don de vida, un amor compartido de la Trinidad de personas que nos acercan más a Dios en amistad y comunión. Tanto el judaísmo como el islamismo consideran a la misericordia uno de los atributos más importantes de Dios. Israel incasablemente proclama la misericordia inmensa. El islamismo se refiere hacia Dios como “Misericordioso y Clemente” (Corán 59:22) creyendo en su divina e inmensa misericordia cuyas puertas siempre están abiertas. Que este Año Jubilar de la Misericordia, ruega el Papa Francisco, se nos abra a un dialogo más ferviente, profundizando nuestro entendimiento mutuo, eliminando toda falta de respeto de tener una mente cerrada y, eliminando toda falta de violencia y discriminación. —Peter Scagnelli, Copyright © J.
