Respect Life Quote “When a patient says I don’t want to be a burden, it may really be a question, Am I a burden? …when a patient says I might as well be dead, he may really be saying no one cares about me. Many studies show that assisted suicide requests are almost always for such psychological or social reasons.” - “Life Matters: Doctor-Assisted Death” 2013-14 Respect Life Program USCCB Secretariat of Pro -Life Activities Small Peasures - Little things seem nothing, but they give peace, like those meadow flowers which individually seem odorless but all together perfume the air. —Georges Bernanos Hospitality Sunday June 12 Please join us after the 7:15, 8:30, and 10:00 a.m. Masses.

Treasures From Our Tradition Unless Professor Einstein’s theory of relativity can be translated into any useful kind of time-travel, most of our clues about life in the early church will have to come from ancient letters and ancient prayer texts. A prayer text from a dusty library may yield, for example, an understanding of what “presbyters” actually did. We have such a prayer from the early third century from the hand of Hippolytus of Rome. While our modern prayers derive a great deal from his, some of the practices of the ancient church have fallen away. In his day, bishops were chosen by the people, and the other bishops merely consented. Presbyters, by contrast, seem to have been chosen by the bishops. This makes sense, since it allowed the bishops to hand-pick their most trusted advisers. It seems that bishops were at first reluctant to share their presiding at the Eucharist with presbyters. In fact, by the time of the fourth-century church’s growth spurt in Rome, the bishop sent deacons out with fragments of the host from his Eucharist to drop into the chalices of the presbyters at the outlying Eucharistic celebrations. We still have a vestige of this fermentum in the Mass today, a reminder of the early bishops’ desire to give a powerful sign of the unity of all celebrations of the Eucharist with their ministry, and a clue to their reluctance to delegate a sacramental ministry to the presbyters. —Rev. James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co. Taizé Prayer Schedule The Taizé - Prayer around the Cross - offered by The Dominican Sisters of Mission San Jose Center for Education & Spirituality will resume again on September 16, 2016.

Quo Vadis Camp July 10-13, 2016 Diocese of Oakland Youth Retreat Center 1977 Reliez Valley Road, Lafayette 94549 Registration Fee: $50 Young men ages 13-18 are invited. This three-day camp aims to assist young men in discerning their vocation as they grow in relationship with Christ. Activities will include fun, games, music, mass, prayer and talks. Please contact Fr. Neal Clemens at [email protected] for more information. GOD IS CALLING YOU! A vocation – marriage, priesthood, religious life, etc. - is a call to love and every baptized person has one! But perhaps you’re feeling a tug to give your heart to Jesus exclusively, sitting at His feet like Mary Magdalene, or perhaps you’ve wondered what life is like as a cloistered nun? If you’re a single, Catholic woman between the ages of 18-40 years, we invite you to spend a day of discernment on July 16th with the Dominican Contemplative Nuns of Corpus Christi Monastery in Menlo Park, CA. Catch a glimpse of the same hidden life of love that has been lived at the heart of the Church and the Dominican Order since St. Dominic founded the first community of Dominican nuns in 1206. For more information or to reserve your spot, contact Sister Joseph Marie, O.P., at [email protected], or visit our website at www.nunsmenlo.org/ vocation-discernment-event. Space is limited and fills fast! New and Old Parishioners It is important to be registered in your parish to complete your Sacraments, or to be sponsors or Godparents in our church and other churches. Call the office to find out if you are still registered, because during October last year we up-dated our Census and we inactivated 4,000 families who did not check in. ARE YOU one of those? It is never late, please call us and we will reactivate your information if you still coming to Mass at St. Edward. Jubilee Year of Mercy Tenth Sunday in Ordinary Time Half the liturgical year 2016 is completed after six months of extraordinary celebrations. The Incarnation mystery: Jesus’ advent, nativity, epiphany. The Paschal mystery: Jesus’ passion, death, resurrection, Pentecost’s Holy Spirit. The solemnities of Holy Trinity and Jesus’ Body and Blood. Today the Church resumes Sundays in Ordinary Time, but with a Gospel of extraordinary mercy: Jesus raises a dead man to life. Yet the one who benefits most from his extraordinary mercy is not the dead son but his widowed mother. With her husband and only son deceased, this woman’s material support, in that patriarchal society, had vanished. So had her emotional support, leaving her helpless, abandoned, on society’s “peripheries.” One of Pope Francis’ hopes in calling this Extraordinary Jubilee Year of Mercy is to transform us into more extraordinary Christians, by making our caring outreach to just such vulnerable people, and our practical self-sacrificing love for them, our ordinary, daily, Christian way of life! —Peter Scagnelli, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc. PEACEMAKING: MUSLIMS AND CATHOLICS IN DIALOGUE An Evening of Interfaith Fellowship Pope Francis has declared this year to be the Year of Mercy. Since fellowship is one of the greatest expressions of God’s mercy, we are inviting you to join us in an evening with our Muslim sisters and brothers to share faith and food. We will begin the program learning about Catholic and Muslim peacekeeping traditions followed by group discussions and ending with an action plan for what each of us can do in our communities to promote peace. The evening will end with a delicious dinner not served until sunset in respect for the Muslims' observance of Ramadan. This event will be held on Saturday, June 18 from 5:00 9:00 p.m. in Stack Hall at Our Lady of Grace Church, 3433 Somerset Ave., Castro Valley. (Wheelchair accessible and ample parking) Sponsored by Pax Christi/ Northern California and Maryknoll Affiliates of the East Bay. There will be a free will collection to offset the cost of the food. Please RSVP to Kris East at [email protected] or (510) 276-6021.
