RECONCILED DIVERSITY A few years ago, during Rome's quiet summer, Pope Francis took a day off to visit privately with some old friends, whose identity took Catholic Italy by surprise: Evangelical Protestants. They welcomed Francis to their Pentecostal Church of Reconciliation, where Francis asked pardon for Catholic persecutions and celebrated the Holy Spirit's pentecostal work. Unlike Satan, declared Francis, who creates division among God's children, the Holy Spirit creates a diversity rich and beautiful. And unity; not uniformity, Francis specified, but unity in diversity. Francis named the Spirit's gift reconciled diversity. Pentecost's rich treasury of scriptural readings, for Saturday's vigil and Sunday's morning liturgy, traces the Holy Spirit's work from creation's beginning, through Jesus resurrection, into the church s earliest days, now into our days. Kindled in our hearts, the Spirit's gentle fire is ours to share generously, even with those most strikingly different from us. All hearts are Spirit-warmed by reconciled diversity. Copyright (c) J.

READINGS FOR THE WEEK

OUR MISSION St. Leo Parish, a culturally diverse Catholic community, empowered by the Holy Spirit, is committed to worshiping God and providing for the spiritual development of the parish and the larger community through liturgy, service, and evangelization.

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION

Today we are at the fiftieth day of the Easter celebration: seven weeks of seven days, a week of weeks, now culminating in a festival fiftieth day. While the liturgical color of the Easter season is gold, on this last day we have red. For the first thousand years of the church, there were no firm rules for using colors. Only wealthy churches could afford a full array of colors, and most places used the best vestments, no matter the color, for the greatest feasts. The Church spelled out an exact plan for color, including red for Pentecost, only in 1570, but local differences held on until the 1800s. Color experts tell us that red is a hot color, best used for fast-paced, upbeat, active experiences. It is hard to be neutral before red, as any matador will tell you. It invites commitment, draws you in. It is a stimulating color, engaging the eye, stirring hunger. It is the most fitting color for this day when we celebrate the descent of the Holy Spirit into our lives, a dynamic presence overturning neutrality in favor of passion and commitment.—James Field,

TAKING CARE OF THOSE IN OUR OWN BACKYARD Last week John Clark Construction, the Knights of Columbus and Rolling Hills Nursery came together to replace the Newman House deck. This was a wonderful example of taking care of those in our own backyard. As the ministry at Newman House grows and the number of students has more than doubled, the need for a new and safe deck for the students became a priority for the church and the church answered the call. A big thanks to all who helped by giving time, talent and treasure to help Newman House students grow in God’s Kingdom.
