"I am the vine, you are the branches..."
The Gospel for the 5th Sunday of Easter Year B presents us with the beautiful metaphor of the vine and the branches. Jesus emphasizes the importance of remaining in Him to bear fruit. Like branches that cannot survive, let alone bear fruit when cut off from the vine, our spiritual lives wither without a deep and sustaining connection to our Risen Lord. This imagery invites us to consider the nature of the fruit we're called to bear. It's not merely about individual accomplishments but about contributing to the flourishing of the whole community, to the glory of God. Without Him, nothing can be achieved. Branches that don't bear any fruit are discarded. Fruitfulness in believers brings glory to God. It affirms our true identity as his faithful disciples.
Therefore, our lives need to be nourished, strengthened and find their identity and purpose in our Lord Jesus, the True Vine. The world we live in encourages us to depend on our own trails no matter where they may lead us. The world tells us to focus on our rights and entitlement at the expense of our responsibilities and opportunities to serve others. With the image of the Vine and the Branches, our Lord Jesus is calling us away from all these and directing us to the kind of identity, relationship and vocation to love as He has loved us.

MAY 19 (SUN)
PENTECOST SUNDAY and HEALING SERVICE
Sunday, May 19th, at 2:00pm
The Catholic Charismatic Renewal of the Archdiocese of San Francisco will be celebrating Pentecost Sunday on May 19th at 2:30pm here at SAC. Various Charismatic Prayer Groups and Communities will be participating in this annual observance that celebrates the Descent of the Holy Spirit, which filled the faithful to speak in different tongues and enabled them to proclaim (Acts 2: 4). It was a time of conversion and renewal and thus Pentecost is considered as the birthday of the Church.
NEED HEALING???
The celebration of the day will also highlight the importance of the Holy Spirit's presence with the Laying on of Hands during the Healing Service. We invite those who are ill and desire to be prayed over. There'll be a healing service after the solemn Mass on Pentecost Sunday.

The CONFIRMATION of SAC's 46 Youth
Last Saturday, April 13, 2024
Bishop Mylo Vergara, Presider
April 13th, the day of the celebration of the Sacrament of Confirmation, was full of hope with the conferral of the Gifts of the Holy Spirit to the 46 youth of SAC. We received a clear message that we have a future from these young people who were blessed and full of zeal to make a difference.
We continue to pray for them and accompany them in fulfilling what God desires them to be. We appreciate the many people who have been accompanying them in their faith formation, their parents, sponsors and the catechists.
Below is the link to the photos taken before, during and after the celebration of the Sacrament.
Thanks to Rachel Grecia for capturing these unforgettable moments in the lives of our newly confirmed and their families.
