Second Sunday of Easter or Divine Mercy Sunday � April 23, 2017
The Catholic Church stands up for Life. End-of-life decisions, for ourselves and for loved ones, are among the most challenging we will ever face. There is a movement in our nation to legalize assisted suicide, but that is a false answer and is a dangerous experiment. Our Church offers comfort and practical guidance to live and die with dignity. Visit www.CatholicEndofLife.org to watch the video and read the New York State Bishops’ document “Now and at the Hour of Our Death.” Learn why the Church favors palliative medicine and comfort care, and why the Church opposes physician-assisted suicide. Members of our Respect Life Committee will be outside of Church next weekend. Stop by after Mass and become even more informed and involved!

A Note from the Pastor’s Desk
Dear Parishioners,
Today is the last day in the Octave of Easter, also known as Divine Mercy
Sunday. The Church treats these eight days as if they were each Easter Sunday
morning. The reason for these eight solemnities in a row is because it is really
not enough to celebrate Easter for just one morning or even one full day. The
octave gives us one full week and then some to give thanks for and marvel at the
miracle of the Resurrection with great joy. Indeed, the Easter season stretches
on for seven weeks, even longer than Lent, to make sure we all have adequate
time to ponder the way in which the Resurrection of Jesus has forever changed
the world. Never again should Christians look upon death as the final word, for
just as Christ rose from the dead, so too will those who believe in Him. We
cannot forget the cross just as we cannot forget the life that comes after the
cross. We have to set our hearts on heaven.
I spoke at all the Masses last Sunday to greet everyone and give thanks to
God for our Easter faith. I also attempted to thank everyone beginning with
Msgr. Barry and Fr. Tom. Next I thanked Deacon Schiebe and Deacon Kenny
(who will be ordained a priest next month). I also thank Fr. Donal the priest
who assists on Sundays. Their work here is invaluable! I thank all of our parish
staff and all of our volunteers. I cannot say enough good things about staff and
volunteers. They do so much, often behind the scenes, to keep the parish strong
and running smoothly. We certainly seek to do the Lord’s work here everyday!
May God keep us strong in our faith and filled with Easter joy.
Sincerely in Christ,
