Cyril McDonnell If you have not yet been vaccinated for COVID, we have good news … On Sunday, May 23rd, here at St. Matthew, the Pfizer Covid19 vaccine is being offered by our neighborhood Walmart to those who have not yet been inoculated . You MUST REGISTER so please call Lois in the Parish Office 954-458-1590 to leave your name & phone number. Vaccinations will be given in Rose Hall. We are hoping this will benefit low income families that don’t have insurance and the groups without legal status in this country. All are welcome to take advantage of this opportunity. THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE ASCENSION The theological unity, or perhaps even the temporal experience of the early community, made it seem that Jesus’ resurrection and his ascension were in- separable aspects of a single mystery. Only in the later writings of Luke and John has further theological reflection helped the Christian community to dis- tinguish different dimensions of the mystery. Liturgical tradition has followed the forty-day chronology formulated by Luke. We would miss the point, how- ever, if we were to demand a precise historical chronology of events such as the Resurrection-Ascension that are primarily spiritual in nature and that clearly surpass the bounds of time and space as we know them. What is important for us to grasp is the significance of the Ascension. For Luke, it is the deci- sive turning point that marks the end of Jesus’ earthly ministry and the beginning of the disci- ples’ Spirit-led ministry and thus the ministry of the whole church down to our own day.

A Memo from the Outreach Food Pantry How do we celebrate our Christian way of life? By demonstrating love for our brothers. That is what more than 190 parish families have done by making more than 800 donations to the Food Pantry over the last 14 months. This does number does not include all those who bring food for the Pantry and leave it in the church. We have no means of knowing how many fami- lies are practicing that charity. BUT THE DONATIONS WE RECEIVE REFLECT TRUE BROTHERLY LOVE!!!!. May God send all of you His blessings and graces for your generosity. Last week we again were able to deliver food to more than 100 families. And we are now working on the next Pantry to be held on May 21st. Please continue to share your brotherly love with those in need. For those who want to donate food we request you bring juices and snacks for children, cans of tuna or meat, peanut butter and jelly, cookies, crackers, cans of mixed vegetables, boxes of cereal, and perhaps some tooth- brushes and tubes of toothpaste. God bless you all.
