PENTECOST SUNDAY JUNE 4, 2017

Pastors Corner brothers and sisters, grandparents and

My dear brothers and sisters,
This weekend we celebrate Pentecost and
recall the tremendous gift of the outpouring of
the Holy Spirit upon the Church. At the Second
Vatican Council in the Decree on the Churchs
Missionary Activity, the fathers reminded us
that On the day of Pentecost, however, (the
Holy Spirit) came down on the disciples that he
might remain with them forever; on that day
the Church was openly displayed to the
crowds and the spread of the Gospel among
the nations, through preaching, was begun.
Our celebration today is an annual reminder
that the spread of the Gospel message begun
by the Apostles so long ago continues in and
through the Church today. We must make it
our mission to carry on this essential work of the
Church.
younger family members. It is hard to imagine
how a family can live faithfully, be life giving,
and grow in mutuality without deliberately
choosing to spend time together. It is
especially important for couples to have
some time alone. Spending time away from
children and other adults provides
opportunities to grow in understanding and
rekindles the fire of love that is often left
unattended as children, job, and other
commitments claim time and energy.
Also, a reminder that Fathers Day is just
around the corner, and so if you would like to
enroll your father, living or deceased, in our
masses for Fathers Day I would ask you to
complete an intention envelope which can
be found at the main entrance of the church
and return it either in the basket on Sunday or
directly to our parish office.

EVERYBODY NEEDS TO
FORGIVE SOMEBODY
In the next few weeks, we are highlighting
a chapter of the book that was given out
at Easter and providing questions that will
promote an interest in reading the book.
Here are the questions for chapter 5:
What happened to Julie Welch and
where did it happen?
Who is Bill McVeigh?
POPE TWEETS
Christian joy comes from the Holy Spirit,
who gives us true freedom and the gift of
bringing Jesus to our brothers and sisters.

SCHOOL NEWS
PASTORS MESSAGE

Dear School Parents:

I NEED YOUR HELP! With the school year winding down so are many of the volunteer commitments that have
been made. One volunteer opportunity which is nearing the end of its scheduled volunteers is our workers for
Bingo on Friday evenings. Bingo continues even though school is out for the summer.
Bingo is essential to the financial stability of our school. During this current school year (2016-17) bingo raised
nearly $100,000 that went directly into the school budget.
What you may not be aware of is that California law requires that everyone who is associated with the bingo
program must be volunteers. We are not able to compensate anyone either directly (pay) or indirectly (tuition
assistance). Therefore, we rely on our school families to assist us as volunteers for this important part of our
revenue stream.
The bingo program is in need of the following assistance immediately:
Floor workers to distribute and collect bingo cards and pull tab games;
Three bingo callers willing to commit to one Friday evening a month for the next year.
Three administrative assistants who are willing to learn how to administer the bingo program.
The current schedule of volunteers for the bingo program runs out on June 24, 2017. We need assistance
starting immediately.
Please contact the school office to volunteer. Also, remember that during the 2017-18 school year each family
is required to complete 32 hours of volunteer service. Hours served at bingo over the summer months can be
counted toward this commitment.

Sincerely in Christ,
Rev. Edward P. McNulty, Pastor

PRAYERS: We continue to keep in prayer all our families and extended families who are experiencing difficult
times. We also give thanks in prayer for all our many blessings.

MASS: We welcome you to join us for our last school Mass of the year Friday, June 9th starting at 8:15 am.

8TH GRADE: This is a very busy time in the lives of our St. Columba 8th graders. This week theyve enjoyed a fun
day at Disneyland, and had a very special 8th grade ribbon ceremony. They will finish off their special activities
with the Dinner/Dance, June 1st, Yearbook signing & Volleyball game, June 2nd, and Graduation, June 3rd. We
send them off wishing each student happy, successful high school years and an abundance of Gods
blessings.

5TH GRADE: Congratulations to the 5th graders who received a special recognition and thank you from the
San Diego Humane Society. The students made no-sew pet beds as their Lenten outreach project. The
donation was greatly appreciated!

SCHOOL RE-REGISTRATION: For all those families who havent registered for the 2017/2018 school year, please
do so promptly. Registration helps us to know class sizes for the upcoming school year and to budget
accordingly. If you have any questions, or concerns, please contact Ms. Navarro.

GIFT CARDS: Thank you to all our families, parishioners and friends who have supported our gift card program
for our school. This program would not be possible without your continued support. Dont forget you can
