The Fi�h Sunday of Easter April 29, 2018
“If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask for whatever you want and it will be done for you.”
What a profound promise! Imagine how satisfying it would be to ask for whatever we wanted and then
to see that wish granted. Truly, it would be difficult to think of anyone who would not love to see a promise like this fulfilled. But we know Jesus isn’t a genie in a magic lamp sent to indulge every selfish whim. So, what’s the catch?Well, as Jesus puts it in today’s Gospel, this promise is extended to those who “remain” in him. He uses the beautiful analogy of the vine and the branches to explain what this means. “A branch cannot bear fruit on its own unless it remains on the vine ... I am the vine, you are the branches.” The idea here is that we are to be connected to Jesus so closely that our very life, our growth, our actions, indeed even our desires come from him as their source. When we are authentically rooted in Christ, and when his words remain in us, then that cannot help but transform us into people who want what Jesus wants. And when we want what he wants, why wouldn’t he give it to us?One further thought on this imagery of "vine and branches." Vineyards can be found all over our country. It seems that grapes can grow in many climates, and even grow very well in places not usually associated with vineyards. It seems that grapes prosper in non-traditional climates if they are heavily pruned. Vine growers will even go out into the fields and pluck off leaves in the middle of summer to ensure that the strength goes to produce fruit and not more vine. So in addition to remaining connected to the vine, the fruit flourishes when the vine is pruned. Yes we must remain connected to Christ but so too we must be willing to be pruned, to clip away that which is drawing away the life giving spirit of the Lord. Is there something that needs to be pruned in your life so you can be more spiritually productive?
Peace!
...from Father Gerard

Reaching Out to the “Afflicted & Affected” - The Church’s Response to AddictionSeveral Holy Family Staff members recently attended a conference given by DRVC Catholic Charities addressing the epidemic of addiction affecting us all. We have all seen the heartbreaking statistics which may lead us to a sense of hopelessness. The most surprising, heartbreaking, statistic given that day was that the majority of people of faith who are either afflicted or affected by addiction stated they never
considered reaching out to the church for support. We are all touched by the disease of addiction. Our pastoral team may not have a solution, we may know of some resources you haven’t tried; or you may simply need someone to talk to. Please know, there is no need to suffer alone. Call the Parish Outreach Office (938-3846 x 331) for assistance in finding the resources or person that can best help you.
Have You Lost a Loved One to Addiction? – A Bereavement Support Group specifically for adults who have lost a loved one to addiction meets on the 2nd Monday of each month from 7-8PM at the YES Community Counseling Center, 152 Center Lane in Levittown.
