Liturgy & Prayer
First Reading: Acts 9:26-31
Paul the Apostle came to Jerusalem, where the
other disciples were afraid of him. Then they
learned that the Lord had spoken to Paul and he had preached openly in Damascus. When
they learned that someone wanted to kill him,
they protected him because they fully believed
he had converted.
Second Reading: I John 3:18-24
John clearly states that we must love one an-
other. All people who believe in Jesus Christ can
show their faith only through their actions. If
people believe in Jesus and love one another as
he commanded us, they prove that they are true believers in Christ.
Gospel: John 15:1-8 Jesus compares himself to a vine, and com-
pares his father to the vine-grower. He explains
how God prunes the barren branches so that
the rest might yield more fruit. He reminds
them that apart from himself, his followers
could not bear fruit.
Holy Hour for Vocations to the Priesthood
The Sisters at the Carmelite Monastery invite you to pray for priests and the vocation
to the priesthood on Sunday, May 6th from 4:00 to 5:00 pm at the Carmelite Monastery 26 Harmony School Rd. Flemington.
There will be Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament with prayer, The Holy Rosary and a Homily by
Deacon David Urcinas
Our Lady of Guadalupe
In anticipation of the Diocese of Metuchen Consecration to Our Lady of Guadalupe, the
Hispanic Ministry has so generously donated to
St. Magdalen a painting of Our Lady of Guadalupe for our Narthex. This painting was
blessed by Cardinal Archbishop Carlos Aguiar Retes before
making it’s way from Mexico to Flemington.
Liturgy Corner
When it comes to concerns for our health and the health of our loved ones, we should always turn to prayer. We pray for disease
prevention, for physical healing, and for peace of soul while enduring physical suffering. Fortunately, there seems to be a special saint for just about every illness and health concern we can think of!
The saints are great aids to us in our time of need and help guide us to greater love for Christ through our crosses and trials, espe-cially when it comes to our health. Here is a list of both popular and not-so-well-known saints to invoke for common ailments:

bring your voice & your questions.
I look forward to the joyful music-making. 7:00 pm in the Spiritual Formation Center - May 3rd.

What Does Saint Alphonsus Liguori, Doctor of the Church, Say About Eucharistic Adoration?
Saint Alphonsus Liguori was born in Naples, Italy in 1696. He was a bishop and also a great doctor of prayer. He was declared a Doctor of the Church by Pope Pius IX. St. Alphonsus was the founder of the Redemptionist Congregation. He died peacefully in 1787. He was beatified in 1816 and then canonized in 1839. This is what he suggests about mak-ing a private visit to our Lord, present in the Blessed Sacrament:
Place yourself in the presence of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament. Speak with Jesus Christ present before you as you would speak to a friend.
Ask forgiveness of your sins and faults. Tell Jesus of your needs.
Ask Jesus for greater love of Him and your neighbor. Remain in His Eucharistic presence praying prayers of love.
Saint Alphonsus Liguori once said, “You must also be aware, that in a quarter of an hour’s prayer spent in the presence of the Blessed Sacrament, you will perhaps gain more than in all the other spiritual exercise of the day. It is true that in every place God graciously hears the petitions of those who pray to Him, having promised to do so. ‘Ask, and you shall receive,’ says Jesus Christ.”
Evangelization
Saint of the Week
ST. Athanasius
“Jesus became what we are that He might make us what He is.”
Feast Day: May 2nd
Patron Saint of: Orthodoxy and Theologians
The 13th Day
Based on the memoirs of the oldest seer, Lucia Santos, and many thousands of independent
eye-witness accounts, The 13th Day dramatizes the true story of three young shepherds who experienced six apparitions of Our Lady be-
tween May and October 1917, culminating in the final prophesied Miracle of the Sun on Octo-ber 13. The film shares the secret given to the children by Our Lady, which was told in three parts and included a harrowing vision of hell, prophetic warnings of future events including
the advent and timing of the Second World War, the spread of Communism, and the attempted
assassination of the Pope.
The 13th Day can be found on Formed under “Watch”, “Movies”, “The Life and Witness of
Mary”.

Liturgia de la Palabra
Primera Lectura: Hechos 9:26-31
El apóstol Pablo vino a Jerusalén, en donde los otros discípulos estaban temerosos de él. Sabían que el Señor había hablado a Pablo y que él había predicado abiertamente en Damasco. Cuando escucharon que alquien
quería matarlo, lo protegieron pues creyeron firmemente que se había convertido.
Segunda Lectura: 1 Juan 3:18-24
Juan claramente dice que debemos amarnos los unos a los otros. Toda la gente que cree en Jesucristo puede
mostrar su fé solamente por sus acciones. Si la gente cree en Jesús y se aman los unos a los otros como El nos
mandó, eso prueva que son verdaderos creyentes en Cristo.
Evangelio: San Juan 15:1-8
Jesús se compara a sí mismo con la vid y compara a su padre como el que la cultiva. Explica cómo Dios poda las
ramas que no dan fruto, para que el resto dé más. Les recuerda que sin El, sus seguidores no podrían dar fruto.
