A BRIEF HISTORY OF OUR LADY STAR OF THE SEA CHURCH

Dedicated in 1882, St. Patrick’s Cathedral located on the plot of land on North Carancahua now occupied by the American Bank

Plaza, became the Cathedral of the Diocese of Corpus Christi when the Diocese was formed in 1912. Leading contributors to

the church were Captain Miflin Kenedy, who donated land, money, and pews. Mrs. Kenedy, who donated the sanctuary

windows, and the wife of then Corpus Christi Mayor J. B. Murphy, gave the statues. The ladies of the Altar Society gave the

main altar. Various parishioners, in memory of their deceased family members, donated the other stained glass windows. As

the Diocese grew, a new cathedral was planned and was dedicated in 1940. St. Patrick’s continued to have daily Mass for the

children of Incarnate Word Academy then located nearby. In 1951, after it caught fire, the church was dismantled and the

sanctuary and main part of the nave were moved to the present location to serve the newly created “Our Lady Star of the Sea”

parish. The altar, statues and stained glass windows were saved and reinstalled in the little church. Thus a portion of the old St.

Patrick’s Cathedral remains standing, a memorial to the pioneers of Corpus Christi. Over the years, the parish has grown to

include families from all parts of Corpus Christi, Portland, Gregory, Taft, Aransas Pass and Ingleside who seek a small “country

church” atmosphere of worship and fellowship. In addition, our parishioners represent a broad cross-section of cultures and

backgrounds from various parts of the United States and a number of foreign countries.

There Will Be A Second Collection Next Weekend

Catholic Communications Campaign

In today’s Gospel we listen to some of the last words Jesus spoke on the night before his death, but they are words that

prepared his disciples for his physical departure from them forty days after his resurrection. Jesus speaks of coming

back with his Father so that they can make their home in the disciples who love them. Our notion of the Triune God is

one who is prepared to come and live within each of us. But God waits patiently to be invited into our hearts; our inner

space. God is neither demanding nor intrusive. How do we make our hearts the home where Jesus, the Father, and the

Holy Spirit dwell? How do we welcome this sacred presence? Retrieved from: catholicstewar dship.com

Lord, we ask You to bless all who are sick. Give them strength in body, courage in spirit, and

patience in pain. Let them recover their health that they may joyfully praise your name. Amen

We Are Glad You Joined Us This Weekend This is the Sixth Sunday of Easter. Jesus says in today’s gospel, “Whoever loves me will keep my word.” The word of Jesus

we are to keep is his command to love as he loves - not simply in words, but as love-in-action. Our love-in-action flows from

the gift of the Holy Spirit dwelling in us and teaching us. “Believing” is an action, a response to the Holy Spirit’s promptings to

be concerned about what really matters -- reconciliation, issues of justice and peace in the world, a concern for the poor, a

respect for creation as a gift from God and a common home -- a focus on a new world where “the presence and glory of God is

everywhere.”

The Readings:

Acts 15: 1-29 The early Church experiences “no little dissension and debate” and plenty of disturbance of their “peace of mind.” To resolve a serious division, the community consensus is not to impose anything that gets in the way of the spirit – that gets in the way of the freedom and joy of the people of God in Antioch or anywhere else.

Revelation 21:10-14, 22-23 In the heavenly Jerusalem envisioned, things are so simple and direct that there is no need for a temple – “the presence and glory of God is everywhere.” As Jesus in the gospel makes clear: the spirit comes and the gift is peace.

John 14: 23-29 Jesus has entrusted his vision, his words, into the hear ts of humans. The Spirit is our guide, will teach everything and bring peace.

CHRIST 101 CLASS ON MAY 4TH HAS BEEN CANCELLED. CLASS WILL RESUME ON MAY 11TH. Christ 101 - A Complete Guide to Defending the Christian Faith Using Reason and Evidence will be facilitated

by Richard and Linda Reinhart on Wednesdays at 7:00 p.m. in the parish hall. This is a semester long,

multimedia course specifically designed to defend traditional “old-school” Orthodox Christianity to the

modern secular world. For more information, call Richard at 361-774-9102.

BACCALAUREATE SUNDAY IS MAY 15TH High school and college graduates who would like to participate in the

Baccalaureate Mass should contact Father Yul by calling the parish office 361-883-4507, or by email at [email protected]

If you would like to stop by the rectory for any reason, please call in advance to ensure that I am in the rectory. If I am out,

or unavailable when you call, please leave a message and I will get back to you as soon as I can. I hope you are having a

wonderful, relaxing, and fun weekend. [email protected]

Please be careful when walking in front of the church. Causeway Blvd. runs directly in front of the church and blends with the parking lot. An unsuspecting parishioner could be walking in front of the church and not realize that motorists are driving along the road.

May Christ’s life and love fill you today and every time you receive him.

Julian Santos

Congratulations to Noah, Justin, Julian, and their families.

You have received a very special gift from God and He looks to you to live this special relationship by praying, attending

Mass, receiving Holy Communion, reading the Bible and putting God first in your life.

A very special thank you to Adriana Trevino for her time and dedication in preparing the children to receive the Sacrament, and especially for her guidance in helping them grow in their Catholic faith.
