In the forty days leading up to the Ascension, Jesus and the disciples had the chance to say good-bye – part of the aliveness that they experience in Resurrection. In Resurrection, no good-bye is ever final.

In chapter 6 of the Acts of the Apostles, we hear of Saint Stephen and six of his companions being called to a special vocation of service to the Church. These seven men would be the first Deacons of the Catholic Church, called to service to the Word, Altar, and Charity. 2000 years later, God still calls men to the vocation of the Diaconate.

What does it actually look like when the welcome of Jesus takes root in someone's life? In this week's message from Acts 11, we discover that the gospel doesn't just change what we believe — it changes who we are. As the early church spreads beyond Jerusalem into the multicultural city of Antioch, something remarkable happens: followers of Jesus start looking so much like Him that outsiders give them a brand new name — Christians. Through the lives of ordinary believers, unnamed evangelists, and a leader named Barnabas, we see four marks of a people transformed by Jesus: a passion for good news, integrated Christ-like leadership, dependence on the Holy Spirit, and radical generosity. If there are gaps between who you are and who Christ is calling you to be, this message will point you back to the one place real change begins — the surprising welcome of Jesus.For more information about Integrity Church, visit our website, http://liveintegritychurch.orgConnect with us on social media throughout the week to stay up to date on events and things happening at Integrity!Instagram: @integrity_churchFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/liveintegrity/

During the Easter season we read through the Acts of the Apostles, but how much do you really understand about this important record of the early Church? Fr. Scott dives into the Acts of the Apostles this week.https://archive.org/download/LetsTalkCatholic/LTC-181RR-ActsoftheApostles.mp3

Easter is the preeminent feast in the Church's calendar. It celebrates the Resurrection of Jesus and foreshadows our new life in Christ and our opportunity for salvation. As such, it is appropriate to celebrate this feast for the entire 50 days long season the Church provides us. This blogcast explores “How to be an Easter People" from the Ad Infinitum blog, written by Erin Donn and read by Fatima Monterrubio Cruess.In St. Peter's speech at Pentecost he proclaims, “But God raised him up, releasing him from the throes of death, because it was impossible for him to be held by it.” (Acts 2:24) The truth of St. Peter's words is made manifest in the liturgical rhythm of the Church year. Just as our Lord could not be held by the grave, the celebration of Easter cannot be held to just one day. In her beauty, the Church does not stop at the Octave of Easter either, but offers the faithful an entire liturgical season—50 whole days—to glory in Jesus' resurrection. As Pope St. John Paul II declared, “We are an Easter people.” But once the beautiful liturgies of the Octave are behind us, the Easter lilies are removed from the churches, and the carrot cake has all been eaten, how are we to be an Easter people?One good place to begin is entering into the celebration of the liturgy. I have a distinct childhood memory of attending Easter Sunday Mass while my family was away on spring break. During the homily the priest invited everyone to exclaim ‘alleluia!', and then do it again because we weren't enthusiastic enough. As an unobservant and not-the-best catechised child, the purpose of this exercise was lost on me. But now, as a frequent daily Mass attendee I am much more aware of the forty long, alleluia-less days of Lent and more fully appreciate the significance of proclaiming alleluia together with renewed vigor on Easter and in the days that follow. During Lent many of us are motivated to make more time for Mass or prayer in our lives, which are beautiful practices to continue through the Easter season and beyond. Throughout the Masses of the Octave, the Victimae paschali laudes, an ancient chant, may be recited before the Gospel. Whether you attend Mass and hear the chant or simply take time to meditate on it each day, it is a beautiful tool for reflecting on the Paschal mystery in our lives and offering extra praise to the Lord: “The sheep are ransomed by the Lamb; / and Christ, the undefiled, / hath sinners to his Father reconciled.” Just as Lent is a time of remembering our mortality, Easter can be a time of remembering our Eternal life.Another liturgical tool to draw on is the Liturgy of the Hours, the communal prayer of the Church. In Morning Prayer throughout the Octave, we use the same psalms and canticle of Easter Sunday morning for all eight days. Particularly striking is the Canticle of Daniel (Daniel 3:57-88, 56), in which we pray that all things on Heaven and Earth bless the Lord:Let us bless the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit.Let us praise and exalt him above all forever.Blessed are you, Lord, in the firmament of heaven.Praiseworthy and glorious and exalted above all forever.Whether you are able to pray Morning Prayer, or any of the other hours, in community or humbly pray them alone, you are still raising your prayers with all the faithful throughout the Earth and elevating them through Jesus to the Father.Throughout the Easter season, the first readings at Mass are taken from the Acts of the Apostles. Practically this makes sense since Acts recounts the events following Jesus' death and resurrection. But there is also a spiritual significance to reading from this book during the Easter season. Just like His first disciples, we aren't meant to keep our alleluias and joy in the Lord's resurrection and salvation confined to our churches or to ourselves, but to proclaim them to the world. It took a little encouragement for the apostles to do this, and so it may for us, but we too can say with St. Peter: “He commissioned us to preach to the people and testify that he is the one appointed by God as judge of the living and the dead. To him all the prophets bear witness, that everyone who believes in him will receive forgiveness of sins through his name.” (Acts 10:42-43) The Easter season is a grace-filled time to unite ourselves to this age-old mission of the Apostles and share the Good News of Jesus. The Catechism of the Catholic Church tells us that, “Beginning with the Easter Triduum as its source of light, the new age of the Resurrection fills the whole liturgical year with its brilliance.” (Paragraph 1168) At the Easter Vigil, the faithful are invited to renew their baptismal promises and remember the light of Christ that is within them. As we make our way through the Easter season, let us glorify Christ in the liturgy and let the brilliance of the Eternal Light shine forth from our churches and our hearts. Author:Erin Donn serves as the parish missionary at Immaculate Conception Church in Washington, DC. Resources:Listen to On Mission podcast Catholic Feast Days AppRead the Ad Infinitum blog Follow us:The Catholic Apostolate CenterThe Center's podcast websiteInstagramFacebookApple PodcastsSpotify Fr.

Acts 5: 38-39

For thousands of years Christians have gathered around the world once a week to remember and celebrate Jesus together. However, is what we call “church” what it was intended to be? This movement that we have been swept up in began with a handful of people who were not terribly sure of what they were doing. In fact, they were mostly unsure and confused in their nature.But by the grace of God, the Holy Spirit empowered them to establish and lead a revolutionary vision creating witnesses of the love and grace of Jesus that has continued even to this day. We are here today because of the ACTS OF THE APOSTLES through the Holy Spirit just weeks after Jesus was crucified and resurrected.This study of the book of Acts should bring us back to purpose of the church and the power of the Holy Spirit.--- The next tactic of the enemy to stop the preaching of the Gospel in the early church is distraction. How the early church handles this boiling controversy is how we are still here today.
