The Feast of St Louise de Marillac occurs on May

9th. Louise (1591-1660) married and had a son,

but at age 34, she became a widow. Vincent de

Paul became her spiritual director and under his

guidance, she began caring for the poor. Vincent

and Louise co-founded the Company of the Daughters of Charity

and dedicated them to serve the poor with humility, simplicity

and charity. In 1960, Pope John XXIII proclaimed Louse the

patron saint of all Christian social workers.

On this "Good Shepherd Sunday" your gifts to the Society will

reveal the love of the "Good Shepherd" to those in need in our

communities. Just as Louise and Vincent de Paul carried the

"Good Shepherd's" love to the poor and suffering of their time.

PASTOR’S PAGE

As you may know, the State of Wisconsin issued Emergency Order #28 Friday, April 17 which extended the Safer-at-Home order until 8:00 A.M. on May 26, 2020. This Emergency Order restricts gathering in places like churches to 10 or less people. On Monday, April 20 the Diocese of Madison sent out directives to the Priests of the Diocese regarding the celebration of Sacraments and other considerations regarding the use of churches, funerals, weddings and other devotions. Having taken these things, as well as the observation of the last month of the Safer-at-Home order, you will find parish schedule below: The Parish Church will be open Monday - Friday from 9:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M and on Sunday from 8:00 A.M - 6:00 P.M. Only the front doors will be open. People are free to come and pray while maintaining proper social distancing. The Parish Office will be open Monday - Thursday from 9:00 A.M. - 5:00 P.M. You can reach the Pastor any time, day or night, at 608-254-8381 x2 Holy Mass will be celebrated Monday - Saturday at 8:00 A.M. and on Sunday at 10:30 A.M. These Masses can be viewed live on the Parish Facebook Page. Confessions will be heard in the church on Wednesday & Friday from 5:00 P.M. - 6:00 P.M. and on Sunday from 8:00 A.M. - 10:00 A.M. You can also contact the Pastor (608-254-8381 x2) to arrange a time for Confession.

Funerals for deceased loved ones can still be celebrated in the Parish Church. However, there can only be 10 or fewer people in attendance. Rules at cemeteries are similar - you can have more than 10 people at an outdoor cemetery but they must maintain social dis-tancing norms.

GO MAKE DISCIPLES

A NOTE FROM BISHOP HYING THE PASCHAL MYSTERY

The Passion, death and Resurrection of Jesus Christ is the absolute heart of

our Christian Faith. This Paschal Mystery, this sacred passing over from

death to eternal life, offers us the gracious forgiveness of the Father and the

promise of eternal life. The crux of the Gospel, the Paschal Mystery is the

very core of our evangelization efforts,

as witnessed by the proclamation of Saint Peter on the morning of

Pentecost.

In the Passion and death of Jesus, God the Son embraces everything that is

sinful, broken, and dead within us, and in one great act of self-offering,

lifts it up to the Father. In that sacred embrace of our sinfulness and

immortality, we are saved forever! This astonishing Good News is the heart

of what Jesus calls us to share with every person we know and meet. As we

move deeper into our relationship with the Lord and practice our Faith with

greater ardor and devotion, we will fall more profoundly in love with God

and feel a fiery urgency to want everyone to experience the amazing grace

we have found.

As Christians, we should have a daily familiarity with the Paschal Mystery,

reflecting on it in our prayer, experiencing its power in the sacraments,

living the dying and rising of Jesus in our road of conversion.

Evangelization is sharing the Gospel and the Gospel is the Paschal Mystery.
