He presented himself alive to them by many proofs after he had suffered, appearing to them during forty days and speaking about the kingdom of God. While meeting with them, he enjoined them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for “the promise of the Father about which you have heard me speak; for John baptized with water, but in a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.” When they had gathered together they asked him, “Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?” He answered them, “It is not for you to know the times or seasons that the Father has established by his own authority. But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, throughout Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” When he had said this, as they were looking on, he was lifted up, and a cloud took him from their sight. While they were looking intently at the sky as he was going, suddenly two men dressed in white garments stood beside them. They said, “Men of Galilee, why are you standing there looking at the sky? This Jesus who has been taken up from you into heaven will return in the same way as you have seen him going into heaven.” Parish Information 141 156th Avenue SE Bellevue, WA 98007 425-747-4450 www.stlouise.org See page 10 for a full listing of Parish Staff.

Parish Office Hours Monday: 9AM-6PM (closed between 12:30-1:30PM) Tuesday thru Friday: 9AM-7PM Saturday: 10AM-2PM Sunday: Closed From the Pastor • Del Pastor Dear Friends, Queridos Amigos: When I arrived at St. Louise nearly two years ago, parishioners freely shared with me the history of the parish. One of the stories that came up numerous times was how great Ethnic Fest was. The person would then often ask, “Do you think we could have it again?” The answer is, “Yes!” Cuando llegué a Santa Luisa hace casi dos años, los feligreses compartían libremente conmigo la historia de la parroquia. Una de las cosas que surgía en numerosas ocasiones era lo maravilloso que era el Festival Étnico. Entonces me preguntaban: “Usted cree que podamos volver a tenerlo?” La respuesta es: “Sí!” Next Sunday, the Solemnity of Pentecost, we will celebrate the return of the Ethnic Fest, 2:30-5:30PM, in the Parish Hall, after an eight-year hiatus! What a perfect way to celebrate the birth of the Church and the Holy Spirit leading the Apostles to preach to all nations. El próximo domingo, la Solemnidad de Pentecostés, celebraremos el regreso del Festival Étnico, de 2:30 a 5:30PM en el Salón Parroquial, después de una interrupción de ocho años! Qué manera más perfecta de celebrar el nacimiento de la Iglesia y al Espíritu Santo guiando a los Apóstoles a predicar en todas las naciones. The mission of Ethnic Fest is to foster awareness, understanding, and appreciation of the rich cultural diversity present at St. Louise Parish, and to educate Parishioners on the many cultures and traditions that are in our Parish. The goals for Ethnic Fest are as follows: Foster inclusion in our Parish. Educate and build community. Heighten awareness of the stewardship principles of sharing time and talent. Eat great food and have fun!!! There will be display booths and performances by many of the ethnic communities that make up St. Louise. Ethnic food samples will be available at the display booths. The Knights of Columbus will provide hot dogs for those that are “Ethnic food challenged”. We don’t want to leave anyone out! The St. Louise Youth Ministry will also provide beverages as a fundraiser. I look forward to seeing you there! Fr. Gary Zender PS This Sunday, we welcome Archbishop Sartain who will be at the 1PM Mass, and Bishop Eusebio who will be at the 6PM Mass to celebrate the Rite of Confirmation. Congratulations to our youth! May the Holy Spirit dwell in your hearts always and keep you strong in faith. 2 La misión del Festival Étnico es promover el conocimiento, el entendimiento y el aprecio por la rica diversidad cultural presente en la Parroquia de Santa Luisa, y educar a los feligreses sobre las muchas culturas y tradiciones que hay en nuestra Parroquia. Los objetivos del Festival Étnico son los siguientes: Fomentar la inclusión en nuestra Parroquia. Educar y construir comunidad. Aumentar la conciencia de los principios de compartir el tiempo y el talento corresponsablemente. Comer delicioso y divertirse!!! Habrá puestos de exhibición y actuaciones de muchas de las comunidades étnicas que forman Santa Luisa. En los puestos de exhibición habrá muestras de comida. Los Caballeros de Colón proporcionarán hot dogs para aquellos que la comida étnica representa un reto. No queremos que nadie se quede fuera! El Ministerio de los Jóvenes de Santa Luisa proveerá las bebidas para recaudar fondos. Estoy ansioso por verlos allí! Padre Gary Zender PD. Este domingo le damos la bienvenida al Arzobispo Sartain quien estará en la Misa de 1PM y al Obispo Eusebio quien estará en la Misa de 6PM para celebrar el Rito de la Confirmación.

Wear Red to Mass Next Weekend to Celebrate Pentecost MAY 14-15 Pentecost is the feast day when we commemorate the Holy Spirit's coming over the disciples in the upper room, empowering the community of believers to continue God's work and share God's unifying love. Our Easter celebration comes to a resounding conclusion on this day, the 50th day of Easter. Its red vesture, the color of the Holy Spirit, recalls among other things the flame of the Spirit that burns in the hearts of the baptized, as well as the color of spring's first fruits and flowers. You are encouraged to dress up for Pentecost (May 14/15) in your brightest red and orange apparel, to celebrate the Holy Spirit in our lives and in our Church.
