Alleluia, alleluia. I will not leave you as orphans, says the Lord. I am going away and I will come to you, and your hearts will rejoice.  Alleluia.

MASS TIMES THIS WEEK

SUNDAY 1st JUNE

Seventh Sunday Of Easter

Jesus lifts his eyes to heaven and prays to his Father “that they may all be one”. Stephen “gazed into heaven” and sees Jesus—the One who makes that unity happen. Saul—soon to be Paul—was a witness to Stephen’s stoning. Shortly after, when Saul experienced the same miracle—an encounter with Christ from the heavens—perhaps he recalled Stephen’s Christ-like death and perfect charity: “Lord, do not hold this sin against them.” Jesus, “the root and the descendant of David, the bright morning star”, overcomes the darkness in our lives. His words reverberate in our hearts: “Surely I am coming soon.” And our simplest prayer can be: “Amen. Come, Lord Jesus!”

INTENTIONS

A Prayer for the Pope

Lord, source of eternal life and truth, give to your shepherd a spirit of courage and right judgment, a spirit of knowledge and love. By governing with fidelity those entrusted to his care, may he, as successor to the Apostle Peter and Vicar of Christ, build your Church into a sacrament of unity, love and peace for all the world. Amen.

May the Lord preserve him, give him a long life, make him blessed upon the earth, and not hand him over to the power of his enemies. 

May your hand be upon your holy servant. 

And upon your son, whom you have anointed. 

Amen.
