4th Sunday of Easter
GOOD SHEPHERD SUNDAY
“For He hears the lamb’s innocent call,
And He hears the ewe’s tender reply.
He is watchful while they are in peace.
For they know when their Shepherd is nigh.”
William Blake
"We adore You, Jesus,
eternal Shepherd of the human race.
You are present in the Eucharist
to dwell continually
in the midst of Your people.
You nourish us,
You guard us,
You guide us to the heavenly fold."
Ven. James Alberione

61st WORLD DAY of
PRAYER for VOCATIONS
Good Shepherd Sister, Sr Rose Vu, rejoices with Fr Spencer J Howe
on his day of Ordination 05/25/13
"To young people, ans especially those who feel distant or uncertain
about the Church, I want to say this: Let Jesus draw you to himself;
bring him your important questions by reading the Gospels;
lethim challenge you by hie presence, which always provokes in us
a healthy crisis. More than anyone else, Jesus respects our freedom.
He does not impose, bur proposes. Make room for him and you will find
the way oto happiness by following him. And, should he ask it of you,
by giving yourself completely to him." - Pope Francis
