†   You have an opportunity to order my next book

"I Have No Time",   (a science-mixed) which will be out in June, 2012.  Einstein says, "Space and time and linked together." It is a wonderful and unique mix of science and a practical way to save your everyday Time.  If we have time, we may have space for others. Many ideas are put together to bring out my 30th book.  If you order now, it may be booked for a pre-publication price of only $3.00.  After June, 2012, the price will be $6.00.   Thank you.  

Please contact Fr. Emmanuel Sylvester.

May 27th, is Pentecost Sunday.

Pentecost falls 50 days after Easter.  It marks the end of the Easter Season and celebrates the descent of the Holy Spirit on the Apostles.

The liturgical color for Pentecost is “red”, and we would like your help in decorating the church by dressing in reds or other hot colors this Sunday as we celebrate that we are: “United in One Spirit—Ignited by the Fire”.

Pentecost, May 27th, ”wear something red to church today”.  As an extra reminder on our church calendar, you will notice that on May 27 the word RED in the upper right hand corner.  That tells us the liturgical color for the day.  Thank You for your help.
