CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR GRADUATES!
In todays Gospel the disciples are gathered fearfully behind closed doors. Jesus comes into their presence and gifts them with peace and calls them to go and share this peace with others. He breathes on them and says, Receive the Holy Spirit. In what ways have you received Jesus message of peace? How do the gifts of the Holy Spirit help you to be a more faithful Catholic?

Is God calling you to share your faith with our teenagers or to teach the stories of our faith to children? If you are looking for a new way to get involved at St. Austin, consider becoming a catechist for children or youth in Religious Education. Its a great opportunity to meet new people, learn more about our Catholic faith, and serve our parish community. For more information and to find out what it takes to be a catechist (By the way, we LOVE experience, but its not required!), contact Marti Salas at msalas@staustin.org.
