A heartfelt thank you to Deacon Chuck and Matthew for leading today’s Server Training Day Camp!

More than 20 youth from St. Ann and St. Leo parishes participated in a day focused on deepening their understanding of the Mass and growing closer to God through service at the altar. We are grateful for their willingness to learn and serve our parish communities.

As our servers begin implementing some newly learned practices, we kindly ask for your patience and encouragement as they continue to grow in their ministry!

🕊️❤️ Pentecost Sunday! Come Holy Spirit! ❤️🕊️

Please join us in celebrating Pentecost at this weekend’s masses! At Pentecost Mass, priests wear red vestments & the church is decorated in Red. Red symbolizes the fire 🔥 of the Holy Spirit, recalling the tongues of fire that rested on the apostles. It also represents zeal, courage, and the willingness to bear witness to Christ.

The event of Pentecost is described in Acts 2. The apostles were gathered in Jerusalem when a sound like a mighty wind filled the house, and “tongues as of fire” appeared and rested on each of them. Filled with the Holy Spirit, they began to speak in different languages, proclaiming the mighty works of God to Jews from many nations who had gathered in the city.

This miracle showed that the gospel was not meant for one tribe, one nation, or one language. Christ had commanded his apostles to “make disciples of all nations” (Matt. 28:19), and, at Pentecost, the Holy Spirit empowered them to begin that mission. The same Holy Spirit who descended on the apostles continues to guide the Church, sanctify the faithful, and strengthen Christians to proclaim Jesus Christ. Pentecost reminds us that the Christian life cannot be lived by human effort alone. We need grace. We need courage. We need the Holy Spirit to renew our hearts and purify our desires.

The Mass readings for Pentecost Sunday 2026 include Acts 2:1-11; Psalm 104; 1 Corinthians 12:3b-7, 12-13; and John 20:19-23. These readings emphasize the Spirit’s power to renew creation, unite the Church, and send the apostles out in Christ’s name. Come, Holy Spirit! 🕊️
