Church, and deepen your relationship with Jesus. 2. Your Baptism calls you to share in Jesus’ ministry. 3. Today’s children and teens more than ever, need to hear the

Good News of Jesus. 4. Children and teens need to encounter role models of faith. 5. You’ll share with those you teach, and with other catechists. 6. Catechetical textbooks/resources offer outstanding support. 7. You’ll be challenged, have fun, and make new friends. 8. You’ll help others deepen their relationship with Jesus.

“TAKE THE JESUS WALK”

Today’s 1st reading delivers a strong witness speech by St. Peter,

giving scriptural evidence from the Old Testament prophecies, that Jesus is the awaited Messiah and that we can confidently Believe in Him. He then continues in today’s 2

nd reading urging

us to pattern our life on the teachings of Jesus Christ, who will judge us according to our works. He reminds us that we were all ransomed at a great price by the precious Body and Blood of Jesus. In today’s gospel passage we find two disheartened disciples, broken-hearted at the turn of events which ended with their leader dying on the cross, and all hope of victory lost. They do not recognize Christ when he joins the group. He interprets scripture for them, prays, and when he breaks the bread their eyes are opened and their hearts burn within them. When you accept the Eucharist as the true body and blood of Jesus, you accept His cross and enter into His victory. With a deep and abiding faith, eternal life is yours for the asking. What keeps you from becoming aware of Christ in your life? Fear, anger, hurt, pain? You can be so short-sighted that you fail to see all the Lord’s blessings in your own life. Ask Christ to open your heart, your mind and your eyes to enable you to recognize the Lord blessing you with His love. Jesus is walking with you every minute of every day and the best way to get to know Him is through the Holy Scriptures. St. Jerome said “Ignorance of Scripture is Ignorance of Christ.” Open the door of your heart through daily prayer, reading scripture and receiving the Holy Sacraments. TAKE THE JESUS WALK, HAVE THE JESUS TALK AND GET TO KNOW THE GOD WHO LOVES YOU! Want to know more? For information call Msgr. Carroll, 973-838-6838 x100 or Carol Mangani at 973-283-2218.

THIRD SUNDAY OF EASTER

First Reading: Acts 2:14, 22-33 After the Holy Spirit descends upon the apostles, Peter preaches with great enthusiasm to both Jews and Christians. He recalls for them in vivid terms the miracles and wonders that Jesus performed. Second Reading: 1 Peter 1:17-21 Peter makes reference to the Passover, when the Jews escaped from Egypt because the blood of the paschal lamb was shed. Now they are being saved from sin by the blood of Christ, the Lamb of the New Testament. Gospel: Luke 24:13-35 Jesus reveals Himself to two disciples on the way to Emmaus. After explaining to them the passages in Scripture which referred to Him, Christ “took bread, broke it, and distributed it to them.” Then they recognized Christ and their “hearts burned within them.”

FIRST FRIDAY ADORATION – May 5, 2017 8:15am Mass will be followed by Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament ending with Benediction at 5pm.

FIRST SATURDAY ROSARY – May 6, 2017

Oh Mary, Mother of Jesus and our Mother, together with St. Michael, the Archangel, and the Heavenly Hosts of Angels, protect the unborn and ask our Heavenly Father to forgive and convert those hearts and souls who advocate or practice abortion and instill in them a respect and reverence for all human life. Give this world that peace and justice that can only come from following your Son, Our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen.
