Third Sunday of Easter April 15, 2018
Thus it is written
that the
Christ
would suffer
and
rise from
the dead
on the
third day
and that
repentance, for
the forgiveness
of sins,
would be
preached in
his name
to all
the nations
From Father Phil
My Dear Parishioners,
Thank you so much for making
the Sacred Triduum so beautifully prayerful.
Many people made the whole three days including Easter Sunday special.
Thanks go to David our director of music and his choir for their uplifting sing-ing. Deacons Larry, Bill and Dwight participated and made their own special mark felt.
To those who transformed the gym into a worthy sacred space, our mainte-nance staff, Pinky our floral designer and her helpers, along with Margaret Tusa who repaired the rediscovered vestments and altar frontal dating as far back as Father Diefenbach, our thanks. We are grateful to our sacristans, under the guidance of Pat Lero, along with the faithful who prepare for every mass each Sunday, week in and week out, who make ready the vessels and books essential to every mass throughout the year. The lectors and Eucharistic ministers remind me personally of how to-gether we are a royal priesthood.
Many others quietly assist in ways of welcoming, distributing worship aids and bulletins, along with the money collectors. They enable us to feel wel-come and give us the opportunity to contribute. A special thank you to every-one who helped and contributed to the production of our Easter and weekly bulletins so beautifully. There are others who add their own touches to our gatherings and do so quietly and sometimes without even being known by me, thank you.
May we too recognize Jesus in the many manifestations that come our way, especially those in search of welcome and healing. Welcome and mercy are like twins. As a parish, we continue to build for the future with a remolded church and new school wing, I trust that together, we will become more and more, under the grace and mercy of God, like the Forgiving Victim, Jesus. James Allison describes this Jesus as one who is: "Rambunctiously alive, the one that I have described as "the Other other", effervescent beyond words - comes rushing toward us, taking us by surprise, undoing us from the bonds we scarcely knew were there, and bringing us to live." Jesus the Forgiving Victim. With Easter joy I will See you next week , Fr. Phil Thank
You!

Mis queridos feligreses,
Muchas gracias por hacer el Triduo Pascual tan maravillosamente lleno de oración. Muchas personas hicieron los tres días completos incluyendo el Domingo de Pas-cua muy especial. Gracias a David nuestro director musical y a su coro por su can-to edificante. Los diáconos Larry, Bill y Dwight participaron e hicieron sentir su marca especial.
Nuestro agradecimiento para nuestro personal de mantenimiento quienes transfor-maron el gimnasio en un digno espacio sagrado, Pinky nuestra diseñadora de flores y sus ayudantes, junto con Margaret Tusa que redescubrieron las vestimentas del altar que datan desde que estaba el padre Diefenbach y las repararon.
Estamos agradecidos con nuestros sacristanes que estubieron bajo la guía de Pat Lero, junto con los fieles que se preparan para cada misa cada domingo, semana tras semana, que preparan los vasos y libros esenciales para cada misa durante todo el año. Los lectores y los ministros de la Eucaristía me recuerdan personalmente cómo juntos somos un real sacerdocio.
Muchos otros asisten discretamente en formas de bienvenida, distribución de ayudas y boletines, junto con los recaudadores de la limosna. Nos permiten sen-tirnos bienvenidos y darnos la oportunidad de contribuir. Un agradecimiento espe-cial a todos los que ayudaron y contribuyeron a la producción de nuestra Semana Santa y de los boletines semanales de forma tan hermosa. Hay otros que añaden sus propios toques a nuestras reuniones y lo hacen en voz baja y, a veces, sin que sea de mi conocimiento, gracias.
Que también nosotros reconozcamos a Jesús en las muchas manifestaciones que se nos presentan, especialmente aquellas en busca de bienvenida y sanación. La bien-venida y la misericordia son como gemelos.
Como parroquia, seguimos construyendo para el futuro con una iglesia remodelada y una nueva ala escolar, confío en que juntos, nos volveremos más y más, bajo la gracia y misericordia de Dios, como la Víctima Perdona, Jesús.
James Allison describe a Jesús como el que es: "Rambutamente vivo, el que he descrito como "el Otro otro", efervescente más allá de las palabras, viene corriendo hacia nosotros, tomándonos por sorpresa, deshaciéndonos de los lazos que apenas sabíamos que estaban allí, y trayéndonos a vivir". Jesús la Víctima Perdonadora.
Con alegría de Pascua los veré la próxima semana P. Phil
