The Sixth Sunday of Easter ~May 6, 2018

Jesus said to his disciples: "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give it to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled or afraid. You heard me tell you, 'I am going away and I will come back to you.' If you loved me, you would rejoice that I am going to the Father; for the Father is greater than I. And now I have told you this before it happens, so that when it happens you may believe. I will no longer speak much with you, for the ruler of the world is coming. He has no power over me, but the world must know that I love the Father and that I do just as the Father has commanded me." John 14: 27-31

A message for kids only: Your father is a good man. He loves you very much. He wants only the best for you. He looks for ways to make your life better. Would you like to help him? Why not suggest that he attend the next social meeting of the Knights of Columbus? That way he can meet other fathers who are working to build a stronger church, school, and community for you and your family. The Knights have a social meeting every first Tuesday of the month at 7:00 at the Columbus Club meeting hall 2504 South Oak Ave. in Sanford. Tell your Dad to ask any Knight for more information or call 321.262.5865.

Dear Sisters in Christ and Ladies of the Parish, Peace be with you! A Slate of Officers was presented and elected at the General Meeting on May 1st. I wish to congratulate the incoming Board. President, Jesse Colon', Vice President, Jennifer McGuigan; Recording Secretary, Jennifer Pottinger, Treasurer, Tara Haefner and Deanery Representative, Susann Engel

The Installation of Officers will be held at the Vigil Mass on May 12th. Mark your calendars Ladies, as the 2016-2018 Board will be honoring all members at the Appreciation Luncheon on May 19th at 12 noon at the Knights of Columbus Hall. This is my final bulletin item. It has been a pleasure.

Lead with your heart.....Eleanor Tolley etolley16@gmail.com

In fact, if a friendship or romantic relationship--new or old--becomes characterized by imposed obligations, we would rightly be suspicious. Friendships, we understand, ought to be characterized by freedom. We love the person, even sacrifice for them at times because, within ourselves, we want to maintain the friendship. So why does Jesus use the language of command as he calls the Apostles his friends? "You are my friends if you do what I command you." Jesus is radically transforming the concept of commandment. In the Jewish heritage of the Apostles, they would hear the word "command" and immediately think of the strict Levitical law and distance from God. In introducing the language of friendship, Jesus ties "commandment" to inner freedom of heart. The disciples have this freedom precisely because they know "what [the] Master is doing." Jesus has invited his followers into intimate friendship all along. He shares openly with them. He has patience with their flaws. He isn't scandalized by their failures. He celebrates their successes. We, too, have been called by love and invited into a relationship with Jesus. It is you and I that Jesus chooses and appoints. He does so personally, not from a distant mountain shrouded in clouds. This "new commandment" to "love one another" is received around the shared table in the breaking of the bread. LPI, Inc.

The 6 t h Sunday o f Easter

All are welcome here…If you are alienated or upset, we welcome you lovingly. If you are in need of forgiveness, Jesus forgives you completely—with unconditional love. If you have been hurt by the Church, we are truly sorry. If you are angry, Jesus offers you peace. If life has become

burdensome, we are here to support you. We are happy you are here and want you to stay. We would like to share our lives with you. Come join us each week so we can worship God together. All Souls accepts anyone who wants to share in the life of the parish regardless of where they live. Please register as an affirmation of your wish to share in the community life of All Souls. Registration cards may be found in the narthex of the church or chapel, the parish office during the week, or online at our parish website: www.allsoulssanford.org. Why not sign up today? We love new members!

Meet ou r Vincen t ian s

Faces of our Society: Charlie Moore on becoming a Vincentian: “Because God wanted me to.” Inspired by Gospel values, the Society of St. Vincent de Paul conference at All Souls Catholic Church is a Catholic lay organization that leads people to grow spiritually by offering person-to-person service to the needy and suffering in our community. Vincentians witness God's love by embracing all works of charity and

justice, making no distinction in those served because in them we see the face of Christ. Volunteers are needed to work directly with families and daily Society activities. Call the Assistance Hotline at 407.330.4400 to volunteer.

First Reading: Peter's insight--"In truth, I see that God shows no partiality"--led to the acceptance of Gentiles into the early Church. How can this insight be applied to the Church today? Second Reading: John taught his faith community that "God is love" and God's love is shown to us by sending his Son into the world to atone for our sins. What does this tell us about humanity? Gospel Reading: Jesus taught his disciples that there is "no greater love than this, to lay down one's life for one's friends." When have you seen someone follow this command?
