Gospel: (Matthew 28: 16-20)
The eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus had ordered them.
When they all saw him, they worshiped, but they doubted. Then Jesus approached and
said to them, “All power in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go, therefore, and
make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of
the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am
with you always, until the end of the age.”
Reflection: St. Vincent de Paul urged his followers to worship and to imitate the Trinity, and to live a
life in which all are one, as Jesus is one with the Father and the Spirit. He wanted his
followers to have in themselves the image of the Trinity, to share a sacred relation to the
Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. St. Vincent wanted us to be together as having but
one heart and soul so that through this union of spirit we would be a true image of the
unity of God. He prayed to the Holy Spirit, who is the union of the Father and Son, that he
would likewise be ours, giving profound peace in the midst of contradictions and
difficulties. (Maloney, The Way of Vincent de Paul, p.34) Closing Prayer:
O Holy Trinity, truly you are a God
of Unity, give us one heart and one
soul. Truly you are a God of mystery,
give us hearts filled with reverence
for You. Truly you are a God of
majesty, give us hearts filled with
humility and love. Truly you are a
God of creative power, give us hearts
filled with gratitude. Amen.

Health Information from the Parish Nurse for May 31, 2015
Protect Yourself and Reduce Your Risk of Blood Clots During Travel
Know what to look for. Be alert to the signs and symptoms of blood clots.
Talk with your doctor if you think you may be at risk for blood clots.
Move your legs frequently when on long trips and exercise your calf muscles to improve the flow of blood. If you have been sitting for a long time, take a break to stretch your legs. Extend your legs straight our and flex your ankles (pulling your toes toward you). These types of activities help to improve the flow of blood in your legs.
If you are at risk, talk with your doctor to learn more about how to prevent blood clots. For example, some people may benefit by wearing graduated compression stockings.
If you are on blood thinners be sure to follow your doctor’s recommendations on medication use.
