Dear Friends in Christ, 

A mother’s presence can bring peace to a frightened child just like Jesus brought peace to the disciples in today’s gospel. As bread and wine bring us Christ’s presence in the Eucharist, mothers are the instruments of Christ’s presence in the home.

When God wants an important thing done in this world or a wrong righted, He goes about it in a very singular way. He doesn’t release thunderbolts or stir up earthquakes. God simply has a tiny baby born, perhaps of a very humble home, perhaps of a very humble mother. And God puts the idea or purpose into the mother’s heart. And she puts it in the baby’s mind, and then God waits. The great events of this world are not battles and elections and earthquakes and thunderbolts. The great events are babies, for each child comes with the message that God is not yet discouraged with humanity, but is still expecting goodwill to become incarnate in each human life.  – Edmond McDonald

The most important person on earth is a mother. She cannot claim the honor of having built Notre Dame Cathedral. She need not. She has built something more magnificent than any cathedral – a dwelling for an immortal soul, the tiny perfection of her baby’s body…the angels have not been blessed with such a grace. They cannot share in God’s creative miracle to bring new saints to Heaven. Only a human mother can. Mothers are closer to God the Creator than any other Creature; God joins forces with mothers in performing this act of Creation…What on God’s good earth is more glorious than this: to be a mother -Joseph Cardinal Mindszenty 

Thursday, May 15th is the feast day of St. Isidore the Farmer. He is the patron saint of farmers and gardeners. On this day traditionally we bless seeds for the fields and gardens. At Mass I will bless your seeds for your gardens. St. Isidore never did anything great in the eyes of the world but believed the promises of God and loved the land he worked on.  

During the month of May the Rosary will be said at 4:30 pm in the Church Monday through Friday to honor Mary and to pray for vocations.
