Why do
Catholics do That?
Q: Why
Catholics cross their foreheads, lips, and
chest before listening to the Gospel at
Mass?
A: One
reason we cross ourselves before listening
to the Gospel is to ask God to let its
message dominate our thoughts, words, and
feelings. Before the priest or deacon
proclaims the Gospel, we trace the sign of
the cross first on the forehead, then the
lips, and finally over the heart. Some
even say a prayer similar to this,
“May the Lord purify my
understanding, my speech, and my heart, so
that I may receive the words of the
Gospel.”

all our parishioner’s requests, we
are limiting requests to 10 per person.
Forms are available at the Parish
Office.
Please
note that ALL requests must be made in
person.
Reflections
GOSPEL:
John 20:19-23
John’s Gospel pictures Jesus
breathing the gift of his Spirit on the
disciples. It is Easter night and they are
hiding behind locked doors out of fear of
their enemies. Jesus calms them with his
peace. He gives them the power to give
peace to others by forgiving their sins.
“As the Father has sent me, so I send
you,” Jesus says.
1.)
Mission is a very important word. We
sometimes connect this word to working in
foreign countries, but that is not all it
means. The sisters in some religious
communities refer to their places of work
as “going on their mission.” The
Latin ending of the Mass was, “Ite,
missa est”?“Go, you are
sent.” Mission and Mass have the same
Latin root of missa. Now we say, “Go
in peace to love and serve the Lord.”
Loving and serving is what mission, being
sent by Jesus, is all
about.
2.) And
we each have a mission in life. We are
each sent by Jesus to do loving service
right where we are. What do you believe
Jesus is sending you to do in this time of
your life?
