Stewardship Scripture Reflection
|
|
Easter Sunday
“Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth.” (Colossians 3:2)
Do you put God first in all things? Possessions, money, power, ego can easily become gods to many of us. Do a quick check of what is important to you. Is God at the very top of the list? If not, your priorities need to be re-adjusted. Don’t let earthly things become a god before God. This is also the first commandment – I am the Lord your God, you shall not have any strange gods before me.

Reflecting on God’s promises will point us toward gratitude and generosity. May you be blessed richly this Easter.
Offertory – At Masses & Online Giving
(Weekend of 4/5/20) $10,182.

8:30PM EASTER VIGIL OF THE LORD'S RESURRECTION (Parish Website, English)
On this night, we celebrate the Solemn Vigil of the Resurrection of the Lord. The lifestream will be available on the parish website.
This Mass is the "Mother of all vigils" and is a THE celebration of the entire year. There are 9 readings from scripture, each with its own responsorial psalm; we will ring out the Alleluia as we proclaim the Lord Jesus RISEN from the dead; we will renew our baptismal promises and lift up the Eucharistic Sacrifice.
Normally at this Mass we would celebrate the initiation of those who have been going through RCIA this year, people coming to the faith for the first time, converts entering into full communion with the Catholic Church, adults who had not yet received Confirmation. Please pray for our crew of catechumens and candidates who have to continue their wait!

"The Lord God has given me a well-trained tongue,"
On Palm Sunday of the Lord’s Passion, we hear the Suffering Servant of Isaiah declare, “The Lord God has given me a well-trained tongue, that I might know how to speak to the weary a word that will rouse them.” Now more than ever, we, too, are called to speak to the weary the words of life, faith, and mercy, the Word who is Jesus. This is the inspiration for this month’s issue of Impact. Written in a time when many dioceses have suspended public liturgies through Easter, this issue of Impact invites people to reflect on the Paschal Mystery now, at this moment, and to ask themselves how they might allow Christ to speak to them, and how they may speak Christ to others. Blessings to you and your people - Leisa Anslinger

Prayer of Petition:
In our journey as a faith-filled community during our Year of Service, may we all heed Jesus’ call to love one another. May we show our love by sacrificial acts of service in our families, parish and communities.
Let us pray to the Lord…
How do we serve each other during the self-isolation? Some ideas:
·
Call folks who are alone and may be feeling more isolated
·
Write a thank you note to employees of essential service companies
·
Let Father Michael know how much he is appreciated
·
Attend Mass and Holy Hour virtually with your friends or group
· Clean out the closet and create a pile for Martha’s Closet or COTS
·
Evangelize: Tell family and friends about Mass at COKAS.org!

According to Live Action News, the Abortion Industry is attempting to capitalize on the COVD-19 pandemic to expand abortion.
The abortion industry has managed to coordinate efforts with Massachusetts government officials to normalize abortion as an ‘essential’ procedure during the COVID-19 pandemic.
