We are sad to report that our beloved former pastor was called home yesterday, May 14.  He served our parish for over 13 years with much love, openness and generosity. Welcoming all and encouraging our Parish to be a community of spiritual growth, social gatherings, and outreach participation.  Rest in Peace Monsignor!

Dear Parish Family,
Both the Jews and the Christians now celebrate the Feast of Pentecost.  Along with the Feast of the Passover and the Feast of Tabernacles, Pentecost was one of the major pilgrim feasts of the Jews.  During these three great Jewish festivals, every male Jew living within twenty miles of Jerusalem was legally bound to go to Jerusalem to participate in the feast.  The word Pentecost is Greek for pentecostes which means “fiftieth.” The feast received this name because it was celebrated fifty days after the Feast of the Passover.  Another name for the Jewish Pentecost is Shebuot or “The Feast of Weeks“ (the “week” of seven Sabbaths between Passover and Pentecost).  It was originally a day of thanksgiving for the completion of the harvest.  Like many cultural celebrations around the world, this was a ‘harvest festival’. The festivals of the Jews had some special rituals attached to them. During Passover, the first omer (a Hebrew measure of about a bushel), of barley was offered to God.  At Pentecost, two loaves of bread were offered in gratitude for the harvest.  Later, the Jews added to the Feast of Pentecost the element of Yahweh’s Covenant with Noah, which took place fifty days after the great deluge.  Still later, they made this feast an occasion to thank God for His Covenant with Moses and the gift of the Ten Commandments, which occurred fifty days after the beginning of the Exodus from Egypt.
