The Josephites
Most Pure Heart of Mary Church & School is a gospel faith community baptized into the life, death and
resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. We invite all people into a personal relationship with Christ
through prayer, worship, stewardship and service to God and neighbor.
Eucharist is the center of our faith and we celebrate our Catholic African American Heritage.
We empower our youth to be gospel witnesses through faith-building programs.

The gift of Pentecost - the
outpouring of the Holy Spirit, and
the spiritual gifts and blessings of
God - are made possible through the
death, resurrection, and ascension of
the Lord Jesus. After his resurrection
Jesus "breathed" on his disciples and
gave them the Holy Spirit. Just as
God breathed life into Adam, so the
gift of the Holy Spirit is an
impartation of "new life" for his
people. With the gift of the Holy
Spirit a new creation begins. God recreates us for his
glory. Jesus' gift of peace to his disciples was more
than an absence of trouble. His peace included the
forgiveness of sins and the fullness of everything
good. Do you want power to live a faith-filled life as a
disciple of Jesus? Ask the Father to fill you with the
power of his Holy Spirit (Luke 11:13).
The Forgiveness of Sins Can the faithful on earth help one another? The
faithful on earth, as members of the Mystical Body
of Christ, can help one another by practicing
supernatural charity and the spiritual and corporal
works of mercy.
Pray for one another that you may be saved. For
the unceasing prayer of a just man is of great
avail. (James 5:16)
What is meant in the Apostles' Creed by "the
forgiveness of sins"? By "the forgiveness of sins"
in the Apostles' Creed is meant that God has given
to the Church, through Jesus Christ, the power to
forgive sins, no matter how great or how many
they are, i f s inners t ruly repent .
Receive the Holy Ghost; whose sins you shall
forgive, they are forgiven them; and whose sins
you shall retain, they are retained. (John 20:22-
23)

experience this gift, and how do you share it with others?

What is special about you? How can you use those gifts to help others - friends, family,
strangers?

way that you can forgive a friend or classmate?
