Dear Parishioners and Friends, Peace and Blessings!

First off, I would like to thank all who a ended our Pentecost celebra on last Sunday. A special word of thanks to YAC (Young Adults in Christ) who organized both the Mass and the celebra on a er. It was a great me.

We received word last week that Fr. Joy will be leaving us and moving to our friary in Union City. We thank him for his presence with us. A new friar will be joining us in July.

Congratula ons to our young people who received the Sacrament of Confirma on on Tuesday. May God con-

nue to bless you and stay open to the working of the Holy Spirit.

We are sorry that the bulle ns for Pentecost Sun- day did not arrive on me. They were delivered on Monday morning.

Our Gospel for Trinity Sunday reinforces our un- derstanding of the unity shared by the members of the Trinity. Although the idea of one God in three persons re- mains a mystery, we have the assurance that, as Jesus and the Father share all, Jesus and the Spirit share all.

In His Peace,

\

Queridos Feligreses Amigos,

¡Paz y bendiciones!

En primer lugar, me gustaría agradecer a todos los que asis eron a nuestra celebración de Pentecostés el domin- go pasado. Unas palabras especiales de agradecimiento a YAC (Jóvenes Adultos en Cristo) que organizaron tanto la Misa co- mo la celebración posterior. Fue un gran momento.

Recibimos la no cia la semana pasada de que el P.

Joy nos dejará y se mudará a nuestro convento en Union City.

Le agradecemos su presencia con nosotros. Un nuevo fraile se unirá a nosotros en julio.

Felicitaciones a nuestros jóvenes que recibieron el Sacramento de la Confirmación el martes. Que Dios con núe bendiciéndolos y permanezcan abiertos a la obra del Espíritu Santo.

Lamentamos que los bole nes del Domingo de Pente- costés no hayan llegado a empo. Fueron entregados el lunes por la mañana.

Nuestro Evangelio para el Domingo de la Trinidad refuerza nuestra comprensión de la unidad compar da por los miembros de la Trinidad. Aunque la idea de un Dios en tres personas sigue siendo un misterio, tenemos la seguridad de que, como Jesús y el Padre comparten todo, Jesús y el Espíritu lo comparten todo.

En Su Paz,

To the St. Francis of Assisi Parish community, This message is to thank all that helped and participat- ed in the Synod Listening Sessions.

I also would like to share with you what was done with the gathered information and our following steps.

On May 5, 2022, our Parish Council met with Father Martin and Father Prem to discuss some of the most prevalent themes that parishioners mentioned during the Synod sessions.

Some of the prevailing topics discussed in the surveys and during the listening sessions included: lack of communication and a welcoming attitude, training for ministries, stronger leadership from our priests and parish leaders, and ongoing faith formation. All an- swers and comments were summarized and sent to the Archdiocese of Newark. To learn more about the Syn- od process and the timeline please check the archdioc- esan website.

Now that we have sent our responses to the archdio- cese and to Pope Francis, it is time to take these les- sons learned and move forward as a parish. We will continue to have open Parish Council meetings availa- ble for all parishioners so that you have a platform to voice your concerns. The Parish Council is open to listen and to work together to continue to enliven and unite our parish community.

As our Mission Statement says, "The parish of St.

Francis of Assisi is a diverse community, guided by the Holy Spirit, finding strength through prayer and the Sacraments so we may enrich God’s people." Let us continue to do just that!

Thank you all again for your participation in the Synod sessions, your commitment to strengthening our parish, and for being a member of the St. Francis community.

Many blessings!

Yours in Christ, Yalila Murillo

Archdiocesan Pastoral Council Member

A la comunidad parroquial de San Francisco de Asís, Este mensaje es para agradecer a todos los que ayudaron y participaron en las Sesiones de Escucha del Sínodo.

También me gustaría compartir con ustedes lo que se hizo con la información recopilada y nuestros pasos a seguir.

El 5 de mayo de 2022, nuestro Consejo Parroquial se reunió con el Padre Martin y el Padre Prem para discutir algunos de los temas más sobresalientes que menciona- ron los feligreses durante las sesiones del Sínodo.

Algunos de los temas predominantes discutidos en las encuestas y durante las sesiones de escucha incluyeron:

falta de comunicación y una actitud de bienvenida, ca- pacitación para ministerios, liderazgo más fuerte de nuestros sacerdotes y líderes parroquiales y formación continua en la fe. Todas las respuestas y comentarios fueron resumidos y enviados a la Arquidiócesis de Ne- wark. Para obtener más información sobre el proceso del Sínodo y el cronograma, consulte el sitio web de la arquidiócesis.

Ahora que hemos enviado nuestras respuestas a la arqui- diócesis y al Papa Francisco, es hora de tomar estas lec- ciones aprendidas y avanzar como parroquia. Continua- remos teniendo reuniones abiertas del Consejo Parro- quial disponibles para todos los feligreses para que ten- ga una plataforma para expresar sus preocupaciones. El Consejo Parroquial está abierto a escuchar y trabajar juntos para continuar revivando y uniendo a nuestra co- munidad parroquial.

Nuestra Misión como parroquia dice, "La parroquia de San Francisco de Asís es una comunidad diversa, guiada por el Espíritu Santo, que encuentra fuerza a través de la oración y los Sacramentos para enriquecer al pueblo de Dios." ¡Sigamos haciendo precisamente eso!

Gracias a todos nuevamente por su participación en las sesiones del Sínodo, su compromiso de fortalecer nuestra parroquia y por ser miembro de la comunidad de San Francisco. ¡Muchas bendicio- nes!
