A pp Name: CC@S building community a way of life Sunday, May 3, 2015 In today’s Gospel reading, Jesus reminds us how important each and every one of us is when He says, “I am the vine; you are the branches.” One of the central ideas in the spirituality of stewardship is how crucial each person is to the success and effectiveness of the community. Of course, together we can do so much more than each of us can individually. Are you using your gifts? Are you using your gifts to build the community and to serve others? Jesus speaks of His Father “pruning” the branches that do not bear fruit. As is often the case in ancient Greek, a word can have two meanings. The word for “prune” is also the word for “cleanse.” That is the point the Lord is most likely making. Until we are “cleansed,” until we have sought conversion and change with the help of God, we are not able to fully fulfill our covenants with God. Stewardship, of course, is a call to each of us to respond to our many gifts with thanksgiving and service. Fruits bear seeds within them. Our response to God’s call is to allow our seeds to produce more fruit. The author Robert Louis Stevenson said, “Don’t judge each day by the harvest you reap, but by the seeds you plant.” As our Easter season continues, we need to make sure we are attached to the vine of the Lord, and that we are planting seeds.

Please contact M’Lis Berry at meberry@stanford.edu prayer requests The Islamic group (ISIS) just took over Quaragosh, the biggest Christian city in Iraq. There are hundreds of men, women and children that are being beheaded. The people are asking for prayers to be made on their behalf concerning the ongoing atrocity in their country. Please take one minute to pray for them. They asked for this special prayer. Please, ensure you pass across the prayer request to the body of Christ for fervent prayers offered on behalf of the brothers, sisters and children in Iraq. This is an urgent SOS. May God bless you. From Andrew White the Vicar of Baghdad. new announcements Dear Catholic Community at Stanford. As you have heard me say before, the Catholic Community at Stanford is a wonderful, faith filled community. It is a great honor to be part of a community so diverse in its gifts and so intentional in its discipleship. I share with you that I am being reassigned to be the Director of the Newman Center at University of Nevada, Las Vegas. But before we separate and say goodbye it is important to appreciate the time we have together. My new assignment begins July 1 so I will be here to the end of June in which my last Mass will be the 4:30 p.m. on June 28. Please pray for me during this time of transition, for it is never easy to become part of peoples lives and then to move. Please pray for my success there for I am challenged to raise a million dollars to build a church with stained glass and all. Of course it will not be as grand as the Memorial Church. Yet I have hopes. So who is coming? and What is he like? These may be some of the questions arising as you read this. His name is Fr. Emanuel Taylor. He is currently an associate at St. Dominic’s in San Francisco. I mention this as I know many will begin to Google him and Facebook him and do the Cyber Searches to know who he is. I will say that I know him as a sincere and caring priest and I am glad for you to receive him well. Pray for him in this time of transition as well and know that you are in my prayers. I end this message with a heart felt Thank You. You have been very good for me, God Bless you always. Fr. Daniel Rolland, O.P. Help Save a Life by Giving Blood: TODAY!!!

Dominican Life in the 21st Century: Solemn High Mass According to the Dominican Rite and Reflections on Dominican Life Today. In honor of the Year for Consecrated Life, the Dominican nuns of Corpus Christi Monastery, the friars of the Western Dominican Province, and the Corpus Christi chapter of Dominican Laity joyfully invite you to Dominican Life in the 21st Century, at 9:30 a.m. on Saturday, May 16, 2015, at Corpus Christi Monastery, 215 Oak Grove Avenue, Menlo Park, California. The morning will begin with a Solemn High Mass according to the Dominican Rite; the celebrant will be Fr. Ambrose Sigman, O.P. Following Mass, the Dominican friars, nuns, and laity will present three short talks on Dominican life. A light reception will follow. Founded by St. Dominic 800 years ago, the Order of Friars Preachers was commissioned to contemplate God and share with others the fruit of that contemplation, preaching the Gospel for the salvation of souls. Today, the sons and daughters of St. Dominic continue to embrace and live out that charism as religious friars and nuns, sisters and laity. 3. For you alone are the Holy One, you alone are the Lord, you alone are the Most High, Jesus Christ, with the Holy Spirit, in the glory of God the Father. Amen. First Reading Acts of the Apostles 9:26-31 Saul went back to Jerusalem, but the disciples were afraid of him.

Those who live in me and I in them will bear fruit abundantly.” Apostle’s Creed I believe in God, the Father almighty, Creator of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried; he descended into hell; on the third day he rose again from the dead; he ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of God, the Father almighty; from there he will come to judge the living and the dead.
