A NOTE ABOUT FATHER ANDREW
Dear Parish Family:
Please continue to pray for God's healing grace and powerful healing hands over Father Andrew. He is
recovering well from surgery this past week and gains strength each day. Father Andrew is overwhelmed by your outpouring
of care, concern and prayers – he is humbled and so thankful. Most of all he is anxious to return to his beloved parish family.
We are most grateful to the priests who so generously have stepped in to be with us for liturgies as Father recovers.
A reflection on this week’s Gospel:
Today’s Gospel is a continuation of last week’s Gospel: Jesus is speaking to his disciples at the Last Supper. In today’s read-
ing Jesus offers encouragement to his disciples, who will soon see him crucified. He reassures them that even though he will
leave them, he will not abandon them. Instead he will send them the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, through whom the disciples
will continue to live in union with Jesus.
Jesus uses the term Advocate to describe the Holy Spirit, whom the disciples will receive. Another word used to describe the
Holy Spirit is Paraclete, a legal term meaning “one who offers defense for another.” Note that Jesus says that he will send
“another Advocate.” Jesus himself is the first advocate, interceding for his disciples with the Father.
In today’s reading Jesus contrasts his impending departure with the permanence of the gift of the Holy Spirit. Jesus will leave
to return to the Father, but the Holy Spirit will remain with the disciples.
Through the gift of the Holy Spirit, the disciples will come to know and appreciate the unity of the Son and the Father. They
will also understand that they too participate in the communion between the Father and the Son: “On that day you will real-
ize that I am in my Father and you are in me and I in you” (John 14:20).
Today’s reading is one example of the contrast that John’s Gospel presents between the community of disciples, to whom
God will reveal himself, and the unbelieving world, which will remain in darkness. The unbelieving world cannot accept the
“Spirit of truth,” whom the disciples will receive. Only through the Spirit will God’s revelation and love be known.

May 21, 2017~6th Sunday of Easter
“For it is better to suffer for doing good, if that be God’s will, than for doing evil.” 1 PETER 3:17
The old line says “if you want to make God laugh, tell him your plans.” Many of us are
diligent in our planning, making sure things are progressing smoothly, then disaster
strikes, we don’t get the result that was intended. An unforeseen problem arises. Many
times we may respond negatively. Why me? I did everything right! Here’s the thing –
God has a different and better plan in store for you.
