Stewardship Message: Jesus’ commandment is that His
disciples love one another, even to the point of laying down their
lives, if necessary. What gifts of myself—my skills and talents,
my time and resources—will best demonstrate my love for God’s
people?
Faith Formation: Our closing will be at the
parish picnic on May 20th. Please mark your
calendar for this special time together. Plans are
being made for lots of game and prizes for the
children. Friends and extended family are welcome.
A Reflection of the Gospel from Living Liturgy
2018: When we are young we learn a list of “dos” and
“don’ts”. Look both ways when crossing the street. Do show
respect for your elders. Even the Old Testament had a list,
which today we refer to as the Ten Commandments. Do not
covet another’s belongings. Here again, learning the list and
following it is rather easy and straightforward. It’s literally a
checklist as to how to be good and honorable in God’s sight.
But Jesus gives us a command in today’s gospel that
supersedes all others. It is simply this: “love one another.”
How much easier would it be to maintain a checklist, such
as, going to church, celebrating the sacraments, fasting on
Ash Wednesday and Good Friday. But the command Jesus
invites us to an adult spirituality, no longer satisfied by
keeping a list. We are not children who need to be told to
help with cleaning up after dinner. We do this naturally out
of love. And we likely do much more. As Jesus says in the
gospel, his love for his friends reaches the point of laying
down his own life for them. There is no boundary to what
love calls us to do. We receive from him a command simple
but demanding: “love one another.”
Spring Fling Bingo: St. Peter Parish’s Spring
Fling Bingo is today, May 6th, from 6-8 pm in the
parish hall. See you there!
2018-19 Catholic Service Appeal (CSA): We are
currently at 58% toward our goal. $12,303.00 has been pledged
so far. The balance owed is $9,041.00 Please prayerfully
consider what you are able to contribute. If you are unable to
contribute, please return your pledge card marked “zero”. This
counts as participating. There are envelopes at the entrances of
church. Thank you to everyone who has pledged.
St. Cyril’s Parish Picnic: We are planning our
Parish Picnic which is Sunday, May 20th, after Mass.
We are in need of prizes for bingo and games. There
is a basket by the stairs in church for your donations.
Please see the enclosed flyer. The Senior Mass is also on May
20th, for all students graduating from high school and college.
Parish Hall Usage: Any organization using the parish hall
for their event, needs to do their own set up, clean up and put hall
back in order as they found it. If they need to hire Jim Porubsky
to help them, they are responsible for paying him. Faith
Formation takes presidency.
Mass and Potluck for Shawna Gruca: Will not be held
on May 12th. It will be rescheduled at a later time. However, we
are continuing to have a card shower to encourage Shawna in her
illness. A box is in the main entrance of the church as well as
some envelopes. A picture of Shawna and her family is also
there. Your prayers and cards are greatly appreciated. Thank
you.
