SUNDAY Divine Mercy
This Sunday the Church celebrates Divine Mercy Sunday! Find out a little more about it in the video and in  this article , where  you can find ways to celebrate while in isolation. Additionally, if you would like to learn more about Divine Mercy devotions, you can find information about the  Divine Mercy image   here and how to pray the  Divine Mercy Chaplet here
MASS at home
We miss seeing everyone at Mass, as much as you all miss attending! Saint Pius X provided lots of ideas on how to make your domestic church at home your own place of worship. So, what did everyone do to celebrate Holy Week, the Triduum, and Easter Sunday? Did you bring in branches? Did you set up a prayer table? Did your family dress in their Sunday best for Easter Mass?
 
Send us your photos and tell us how you embraced this special season in your domestic church. Email Kim Mauch, kmauch@stpius.net. We may use your stories and photos in upcoming bulletins, social media posts and newsletters!
 
Below, you will find a link to this week's worship aid and the weekly bulletin. Listen to this week's Bible study with Fr. Bill and Sally Flask. Ready yourself for an at-home Mass that can still connect you to the Word and our Lord, Jesus.

Finally, quick-access links are included to take you right to the Mass. And remember, we post recordings of all Masses after they air, StPius.net.

We are praying for you all.

FR. BILL EXPLAINS
the Paschal Candle
That beautiful Paschal Candle still burns brightly in the empty church, with it's intricate imagery telling us a story of God's love. But, what do those images actually say? Watch this video with Fr. Bill Schooler to learn more.
MOTHER OF DIVINE LOVE

The following prayer will replace the parish stewardship prayer at Mass until further notice.

Mother of Divine Love, we entrust to you our nation and world, our families and loved ones, that we may be spared the worst of this illness.

In this time of trial and testing, hear the cries of those who are vulnerable and fearful.

For those already afflicted, obtain the grace of healing and deliverance.

For those working to help the sick and bring an end to this crisis, obtain the strength to continue their work.

Shelter us under the mantle of your protection, conform us to the will of the Father, remind us always of the love of your Son, Jesus, and bring his peace to our land and to our hearts.

Amen.

Saint Rocco, protector against the plague and all contagious diseases, pray for us!
