Divine Mercy Academy Receives Grant from Diocesan Foundation

The Foundation for the Diocese of Helena awarded a $3,660 grant to Divine Mercy Academy. The grant funded improvements that enhance the school’s use of their gymnasium as a multi-purpose room, including a new heating system. The private Catholic school, located in Belgrade, is grateful for the Diocese's generosity.

Call for a Photographer

First Communion will take place during the vigil Mass on May 2nd this year. In the past, SJV has been blessed to have a generous parishioner offer their services to photograph our First Communicants so they may have a nice photograph to commemorate the special occasion. Unfortunately, this year, busy schedules have not afforded those individuals the ability to help, and because of this we are in search of a new photographer. If you have experience in this area and would like to be considered please reach out to

Krista Baziak at the RE email address sjvre.belgrade@gmail.com.

Preparing for Lent

From ‘Divine Intimacy’ # 79, Voluntary Attachments by Father Gabriel

“...In the language of St. John of the Cross, appetites are disordered inclinations or affections for oneself or

creatures, tendencies which are, according to their seriousness, more or less contrary to the divine will. ..These

inclinations or appetites always give rise to venial sins, or at least to deliberate imperfections, when one willingly

yields to them, even though it be only in matters of slight importance. ..if these imperfections become habitual

and the soul does not try to correct them, they form a great obstacle to divine union. He gives a few examples of

these unmortified “habitual imperfections”: the habit of talking too much, unrestrained curiosity, attachment to

little things—whether persons or objects—such as food and so forth, which the soul refuses to give up. There is

also the attachment to one’s comfort, to certain sensible satisfactions, little vanities, foolish self-complacency,

attachment to one’s own opinion or reputation.

2. “...It is not so much ...isolated falls, due to inadvertence or weakness, which hinder the soul’s advancement, as

it is the little venial faults and even simple imperfections caused by habitual voluntary attachments which the

soul does not take the trouble to uproot. Even though they are slight, they nevertheless constitute bonds which

attach it to earth. “For it comes to the same thing, whether a bird be held by a slender cord or by a stout one,

since, even if it be slender, the bird will be as well held as though it were stout, for so long as it breaks it not and

flies not away. It is true that the slender one is the easier to break; still, easy though it be, the bird will not fly

away if it be not broken. And thus the soul that has attachment to anything, however great its virtue, will not

attain to the liberty of divine union.” (Saint John of the Cross.)

Colloquy: “Late have I loved You, O Beauty ever ancient, ever new, late have I loved You. You were within me,

and I looked outside; I sought You, and miserable as I was I longed for creatures, I was detained by the

wonderful works of Your hands. You were with me, but I was not with You, though that which kept me far from

You could exist only in You. You have called and cried to me in my deafness. You have shone as lightning,

brilliant enough to drive away my blindness. You have scattered Your perfume, I breathed it, and now I sigh for

You. I have tasted You, and now I hunger and thirst for You. You have touched me, and I burn with desire for

Your peace.” (St. Augustine).
