Today we celebrate the Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity. The mystery of the Trinity
is indeed difficult to understand and has kept theologians and preachers busy for
centuries. Our faith tells us that there is ONE God, revealed to us as three persons –
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We are invited to get a glimpse at the inner life of God
today. The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit share all and are One, united in love. The
gospel reminds us that Jesus has much more to tell, but the disciples cannot bear it
now. The disciples must wait for the Holy Spirit to lead and to guide them. It is the
same Spirit that leads and guides us today. Let us open our hearts to the Spirit’s
promptings so that we can be guided in knowledge and truth. Today let us enter into
the mystery of the Trinity by realizing that God is One and that God calls us to unity
and love.

Father’s Day

Happy Father’s Day! Today is a day that we honor our fathers both living and
deceased. On this day we honor not only our biological fathers but all those men who
have had a significant influence in our lives. In addition to my own father, I have
several mentors and role models who have and continue to shape and influence my
life. Sometimes Dads get a bad rap because often they are the ones who have to do
the discipline in the family. One of my mother’s favorite sayings was, “Wait till your
father gets home.” I have to admit that those words always put a little fear in me.

I have been ordained a priest for twenty one years and I still find it amusing that my
title is “Father” and yet I do not have any children of my own. While I am not a father
caring for the physical needs of children, I care for the spiritual and temporal needs of
the parish. I am aware that I am not perfect and sometimes I made mistakes and
decisions that have hurt or alienated others. The responsibility that has been
entrusted to me is overwhelming at times. I am humbled by your care and support.

Today offer a prayer for all those who have played a father’s role in your life.
Remember that no one is perfect, not even our fathers. Sometimes they make
mistakes – perhaps today is a day to forgive.

A couple of years ago a parishioner sent this blessing along with a mother’s day
blessing. I have found it to be a great prayer to meditate upon and wanted to share it
with you.

                                                                     (continued on next page)

                                  Father’s Day Blessing

Loving God, we give you thanks for the many gifts you have given us;
the gift of life, the gift of those who love us and especially, today,
we thank you for the gift of our fathers.

We ask your blessing upon our fathers who gave us rules to live by, standards to
uphold, joys to cherish, faith to live by, hopes worth dreaming of and who blessed
our lives with their unselfish and unconditional love.

We ask your blessing upon our fathers
who are unable to be with us today.
May they know how much we love and care for them.

We ask your blessing upon adoptive fathers,
that they may always know their special role of being a true father,
a revelation of God’s love for their children.

We ask your blessing upon fathers who have lost children
through stillbirth, crib death, sickness, accident and tragedy, that they
may have your continuing strength and courage.

We remember our fathers who have died
and for the unique way they revealed for us your love.
We ask that you keep them in your care
until the time comes for us to join them in your Kingdom.

We pray for those men who desire to be fathers or have another child.
And we ask your blessing upon our fathers.

Let the example of their faith and love shine forth.
Give them the strength to live the
faithful and loving lives you call them to live.

Protect and guide them. Keep them in your care
and grant that their children may always honor them
with a spirit of profound respect.

We ask this through Christ our Lord. AMEN.

In Christ’s love,

Fr. Frank

     VISIT A NEW CHURCH OR SHRINE . . .

     The Chicagoland area is full of beautiful churches and shrines. Consider getting a tour while you
    are there, stopping to pray for a little while, or attend mass if you are able. The Shrine of Christ’s
    Passion in St. John, IN is a beautiful exper ience for all ages! As descr ibed on their website
    at shrineofchristspassion.org, “When you step onto the Prayer Trail at The Shrine of Christ’s
    Passion it is as though you have been transported back 2000 years. The Shrine is a multimedia
    destination, located just 35 miles from Chicago and is set on 30 acres. 40 life size bronze figures
    are artfully placed in dramatically landscaped gardens that look and feel like the Holy Land. As
    one newscaster stated, “It’s Jerusalem in your own back yard!” Here you can sit with Jesus at
    the Last Supper, journey with Him along the path to His crucifixion, actually enter the empty
    tomb and finally witness His glorious Ascension into Heaven. Come away with a deeper
    understanding and appreciation of the love of God for all humanity. Here at The Shrine of

As a ministry of St Michael Parish, part
of the mission of our parish MOMs
Group is to serve our Lord by helping
those in need. Some members of the
MOMs Group gathered at the Catholic
Charities Daybreak Shelter in Joliet on
Friday May 31st to prepare and serve
lunch for approximately 60 people. We
are so grateful for the opportunity and
for the generosity of moms who
donated food for our group to take to
the shelter. As you can see by the
smiles on our faces, we received much
joy as the many hungry, who struggle to
survive each day, smiled and were
nourished by our meal and our
kindness.
                                                                   While there, a member of the Shelter
                                                                   staff told us of a need for a group to
                                                                   prepare and serve dinner there five
                                                                   days later on Tuesday June 4th. We
                                                                   quickly realized that some of us
                                                                   could help on that day. So on June
                                                                   4th, with more donations, a group
                                                                   with a few of us moms, a dad, and
                                                                   some of our children were uplifted
                                                                   and blessed to prepare and serve
                                                                   dinner to 60 people. One of our
                                                                   children said it well . . . “I wasn’t so
                                                                   excited about doing the work but felt
                                                                   so good when I saw the people smile
                                                                   as I helped them. It was my favorite
                                                                   part.”
  We look forward to our next opportunity to serve at the
 Daybreak Shelter and hope other moms are able to go to
 be blessed by all your heart and soul will receive
  We hope you’ll Join our Facebook Page – St. Michael Parish Moms for updates on
       MOMs Group events and faith-filled reflections for your heart and soul.

Hoy celebramos la Solemnidad de la Santísima Trinidad. El misterio de la Trinidad es de
verdad difícil de entender y ha mantenido a los teólogos y predicadores ocupados por siglos.
Nuestra fe nos dice que hay un SOLO Dios, que se nos revela como tres personas – Padre,
Hijo y Espíritu Santo. Hoy se nos invita a dar un vistazo en la vida interior de Dios. El Padre,
Hijo y Espíritu Santo comparten todo y son Uno, unidos en amor. El evangelio nos recuerda
que Jesús tiene algo más que decir, pero los discípulos no pueden consentir esto ahora. Los
discípulos deben esperar al Espíritu Santo para dirigirlos y guiarlos. Este es el mismo Espíritu
que nos dirige y guía hoy. Abramos nuestro corazón a las inspiraciones del Espíritu para ser
guiados en la sabiduría y verdad. Hoy, entremos al misterio de la Trinidad, dándonos cuenta
que Dios es UNO y que Dios nos llama a la unidad y al amor.

Día del Padre

¡Feliz Día del Padre! Hoy es un día que honramos a nuestros padres, vivos o muertos.
En este día no sólo honramos a nuestros padres biológicos sino a todos esos hombres que han
tenido una influencia significativa en nuestra vida. Además de mi propio padre, tengo varios
mentores y ejemplos que han, y aún continúan formando e influenciando mi vida. Algunas
veces, los papás tienen mala reputación porque, por lo general, ellos son quienes disciplinan a
la familia. Uno de los dichos favoritos de mi madre, “Espera a que llegue tu papá”. Debo
admitir que esas palabras siempre me daban un poco de miedo.

Me ordené como sacerdote hace veintiún año y aún encuentro divertido que mi título es
“Padre” y todavía no tengo niños propios. Aunque no soy un padre cuidando las necesidades
físicas de niños, cuido de las necesidades espirituales y temporales de la parroquia. Estoy
consciente que no soy perfecto y algunas veces hago errores y decisiones que han lastimado o
alejado a los demás. La responsabilidad que se me ha confiado es abrumadora algunas veces.
Soy humilde por su cuidado y apoyo.

Hoy ofrezco una oración por todos aquellos que han hecho un papel de padre en su vida.
Recuerden que nadie es perfecto, ni siquiera nuestros padres. Algunas veces ellos hacen
errores – tal vez hoy es un día para perdonar.

Hace un par de años, un feligrés me envío esta bendición junto con una bendición para el día
de las madres. Me di cuenta que es una gran oración para meditar y quise compartirla con
ustedes.

Bendición en el Día del Padre

Dios de amor, te damos gracias por los muchos dones que nos has dado; el don de la vida, el
don de quienes nos aman y especialmente, hoy, te damos gracias por el regalo de nuestros
padres.

Te pedimos tu bendición sobre nuestros padres quienes nos impusieron reglas para vivir,
valores para llevar, alegría para agradecer, fe para vivir, esperanzas dignas de soñar y quienes
bendicen nuestra vida con su amor desinteresado e incondicional.

Te pedimos tu bendición sobre nuestros padres que no pueden estar con nosotros hoy. Que
sepan cuánto los amamos y preocupamos por ellos.

Te pedimos tu bendición sobre los padres adoptivos, para que siempre reconozcan su papel
especial de verdaderos padres, una revelación del amor de Dios por sus hijos.

Te pedimos tu bendición sobre los padres que han perdido hijos por medio de muerte en el
vientre, muerte de cuna, enfermedades, accidentes o tragedias, para que ellos tengan tu
continua fuerza y fortaleza.

Recordamos a nuestros padres fallecidos y por la manera única de revelarnos tu amor. Te
pedimos los mantengas bajo tu cuidado hasta que llegue el día de reunirnos con ellos en tu
Reino.

Oramos por esos hombres que desean ser padres o tener otro hijo. Permite el ejemplo de su fe
y amor brillar.
Dales la fortaleza de vivir una vida de fe y amor a la cual los has llamado.

Protégelos y guíalos. Mantenlos bajo tu cuidado y concédeles que sus hijos siempre los
honren con un espíritu de respeto profundo. Te lo pedimos por Cristo, nuestro Señor. AMÉN

En el amor de Cristo,

Padre Frank
