The Year of Saint Luke 08.05.16.

Ascension of the Lord 7th Sunday of Eastertide

(Sunday Readings: of year C ::: Weekdays of year 1 ::: Breviary: Week 3)

Scripture: Acts 1: 1 – 11.

Psalm 46.

R/. God goes up with shouts of joy;

the Lord goes up with trumpet blast!

All peoples, clap your hands,

cry to God with shouts of joy!

For the Lord, the Most High, we must fear,

great king over all the earth.

God goes up with shouts of joy;

the Lord goes up with trumpet blast.

Sing praise for God, sing praise,

sing praise to our king, sing praise.

God is king of all the earth.

Sing praise with all your skill.

God is king over the nations;

God reigns on his holy throne.

Ephesians 1: 17 – 23.

Luke 24: 46 – 53

Intercession : Lord in your mercy.

Response : Hear our prayer.

A farmer was milking his cow. He was just

starting to get a good rhythm going when a bug

flew into the barn and started circling his head.

Suddenly, the bug flew into the cow’s ear. The

farmer didn’t think much about it, until the bug

squirted out into his bucket. It went in one ear

and out the udder.

************

A blonde walks into a barber’s with headphones

on. She tells the barber what cut she wants, but

that he has to cut around her head-phones. The

barber looks a little puzzled but agrees. So he

starts cutting the best he can but accidentally he

knocks the headphones off. Within a few

seconds the girl dies. Very startled, the man

picks up the headphones and hears, ‘Breathe in,

breathe out.’

***************

A man goes into a bar. As he waits to get served,

a regular sitting next to him calls out, ‘I’ll have

another waterloo.’ The barman gives the regular

a tall, ice-cold drink and asks the first man what

he would like. The thirsty man points to the man

next to him and says, ‘I guess I’ll have what he’s

having, a waterloo.’ So the barman brings the

newcomer a tall, ice-cold drink. The man takes a

long deep drink and calls out, ‘HEY! This isn’t

any good, it tastes just like water!’ The regular

sitting next to him says, ‘it is water. That’s all I

drink.’ He turns to the bartender and says,

‘Right, Lou?’

We send our Love, Prayers and Sympathy to Marilyn and

her family and to the Navas family on the death of their

loved ones. May they rest in peace.

Keep in mind our Summer Fete on Saturday June

18th. The usual preparations are being made. We will as

usual be grateful for your help and your donations. The

sacristy needs to be painted.

Alice – wishes to thank all who attended and donated to

the last social in April. The last minute change of date did

not help the attendance but a good night was had by all

and £174 raised, which because of the foregoing will help

towards maintenance of the church grounds. Another

event will be held for Annui House later in the year.

Belarusian children have been close in our thoughts

since the disaster and our next Charity Social will be held

on Saturday 21st May to help give them a better quality of

life. Further details to follow but tickets are available at

£3.50 from Pam, Frances, Joe and Marcia Doyle via St.

Patricks.

This month, we are thinking particularly about the people

who clean the church and the people who maintain the

church. Their hard work means that our church is a

beautiful and safe place in which to worship God, to meet

with old friends and make new friends. Thank you very

much Folks.

There will be a meeting of the Natters Group on

Thursday, 12th May at 2pm. We enjoy tea, cake biscuits

and whatever else turns up on the table, together with good

conversation. Everyone is welcome to come along.

Bettws Food Bank send their thanks for your continuing

support by sending unperishable food and toiletries. Your

help is much appreciated.

Adoration at 7pm on Wednesday

Prayer to Mary, woman of listening

Mary, woman of listening, open our ears; grant us to

know how to listen to the word of your Son Jesus among the thousands of words of this world; grant that we may

listen to the reality in which we live, to every person we

encounter, especially those who are poor, in need, in hardship.

Mary, woman of decision, illuminate our mind and our

heart, so that we may obey, unhesitating, the word of your Son Jesus; give us the courage to decide, not to let

ourselves be dragged along, letting others direct our life.

Mary, woman of action, obtain that our hands and feet

move “with haste” toward others, to bring them the charity and love of your Son Jesus, to bring the light of the

Gospel to the world, as you did.

Amen. Pope Francis – May 2013.
