Set afire the hearts of your faithful so that they will
announce in all the languages of the world the wonders of the
salvation of God. -Lucien Deiss
THE FULLNESS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT The church wakes up to an amazing message this morning. Look around and see who has been called. Listen to the voices of those who proclaim Jesus is Lord. You’ll find no race of people left out; you’ll find no language on earth unfit to proclaim the glory of God. We call Pentecost Sunday the “birthday of the church.” In many ways, the church is still being born. Only when we all know the peace Jesus offered in today’s Gospel will we really know the fullness of the Holy Spirit. St. Paul assures us in today’s second reading that “all of us have been given to drink of the one Spirit.” When we look around us in the church we should see everyone. But we don’t. Not yet. What is holding us back from fully embracing the one Body of Christ? When will we see our differences as manifestations of the same Holy Spirit?
He breathed on them and said, “Receive the Holy
Spirit.” - John 20:22

Thank you to all our parishioners and their family and friends for their tre-mendous support of our annual Spring Event and performances of The Lion King Jr! A cast of over 140 students sang, danced and entertained audienc-es over the course of three nights at Saint Joseph High School on April 21st, 22nd and 23rd. Your participation and support of our Cash Raffle is key to helping us reach our fundraising goals for this event. We also thank you for your generosity towards our silent and live auctions. We set records on the number of tick-ets sold and fundraising dollars earned for St. Barnabas School! It was a musical extravaganza and an event to remember. We are pleased to share with you the winners of our 4th annual cash raffle: $2,000 – Patel Family – St. Barnabas School family $500 – Efiginia Vista – St. Barnabas parishioner $250 – Nora Pascarella – St. Barnabas school parent Congratulations to the winners!! The children, faculty and parents thank you for your generous support of our school. ========================================= SCHOOL ENROLLMENT Please inquire to the school office for more information about registration for the 2016-2017 school year. For more information on St. Barnabas School’s upcoming events visit www.school.stbarnabaslb.org. The school, mindful of its mission to be a witness to the love of Christ for all, admits students regardless of race, color or national and/or ethnic origin to all rights, privileges, programs and activities generally accorded or made available at the school. The school does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, disability, sex or national and/or ethnic origin in the administration of educational policies, admissions policies, scholarship and loan programs, and athletic and other school-administered programs, although certain athletic leagues and other pro-grams may limit participation and some archdiocesan schools operate as single sex schools. While the school does not discriminate against students with special needs, a full range of services may not always be available to them. Decisions concerning the admission and continued enrollment of a student in the school are based upon the student’s emotional, academic and physical abilities and the resources available to the school in meeting the student’s needs.
St. Barnabas School News
“Order” and “presbyter” are not everyday words in our vocabulary, since we think of order as a quality of life rather than a collective noun, and “priest” usually does just fine in everyday conversation. Yet each word has deep roots in our tradition. At an ordination we select men for service to the community. Ordo is a Latin word drawn not from pagan religious life but from Imperial Rome. It meant a distinct body standing apart from the people, such as a body of people responsible for civil governance, senators for example. Think of the selectmen or board of governors in your civic home, and you will get the idea. The church borrowed the term to describe the place of certain people within the people of God, thus the “order of deacons,” “the order of presbyters,” and even “the order of virgins, catechumens, widows, neophytes, penitents,” and so on, as distinct groups within the church.
Just as ancient Rome had various uniforms for the ranks and stations in civil life, so too did certain garments give clues to membership in an “order” in the church. So, our tradition favors the idea of an ordination liturgy not as receiving something so much as being received. This is clearly expressed in the liturgy. The “kiss of peace” is given only by the ordaining bishop and priests to the newly “ordained,” not by the faithful, the deacons, or the concelebrating bishops who are present.

A priest was giving a lesson on the 23rd Psalm to a group of children.
He noticed that Little Johnny seemed upset by the verse, “Surely, goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life.”
“What's wrong, Johnny?” the priest asked.
“Well,” replied Little Johnny, “I'm not worried about goodness and mercy, but I'm not sure I'd like Shirley following me around all the time.”
