Worship and Community Life
Coming Together Safely
Please follow these guidelines to maintain a safe worship environment for all.
Wear a Mask. For the protection of the members of our community, face coverings are REQUIRED for all attendees, including children over the age of two.
Social Distance in Church. In order to maintain the proper social distance during Mass, some pews have been marked for no seating. When capacity has been reached in the church, additional seating will be available in the Courtyard for those Masses that are live-streamed.
Please sing in your heart, as no congregational singing is recommended.
When receiving Communion please maintain physical distance when coming forward to receive communion
and keep your mask on until you have responded ‘Amen’.
Contact Us. Please contact the parish office if you have any questions regarding our plans to come together safely. We must be vigilant in protecting those most vulnerable. An inherent risk of exposure to COVID exists anywhere people are present. We have undertaken precautionary cleaning, disinfecting, and implemented social distancing guide-lines to help reduce the risk of exposure. Please contact the parish office if you have been diagnosed with CODIV-19 and have recently had close contact with others at St. Odilia.

Welcome Fr. Erich Rutten!
As Fr. Rask mentioned at Mass last weekend, the Archbishop has appointed a new pastor for the Catholic Community of St. Odilia, effective July 1.
Fr. Erich Rutten comes to us from the Church of Saint Peter Claver in St. Paul where he has served as pastor since 2016. Prior to that, he served for nine years as the Director of Campus Ministry for the University of St. Thomas. He has also served as the parochial vicar at the Cathedral of St.
Paul, and Our Lady of Grace in Edina. He is the Chair of the Archdiocesan Commission on Ecumenism and Interreli-gious Affairs, a member of the Social Concerns Committee of the Minnesota Catholic Conference, and an adjunct spiritual director at Saint John Vianney Seminary.
Fr. Rutten holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Economics from the University of Illinois-Champaign-Urbana; a Master of Arts in Systematic Theology from St. John’s University; and a Master of Divinity from the St. Paul Seminary School of Divinity. Fr. Rutten served as an adjunct faculty member of both the Theology and Justice and Peace Studies Departments of the University of St. Thomas.
Fr. Rutten is originally from Joliet, Illinois but his mother and father were both born and raised in central Minneso-ta. Much of his extended family is here. He moved to Minnesota in 1991 and has lived in the Twin Cities since 1993. He has four sisters, two brothers, and 11 nieces and nephews.
Fr. Rutten enjoys movies and music. He loves doing research on the family genealogy. His influences include Saint Pope John Paul II, Bishop Robert Barron, the Institute for Priestly Formation, N.T. Wright, Josef Ratzinger, Brant Pietre, and many more.
Fr. Rutten is an energetic minister with a passion for evangelization and justice. He is always ready to offer a listening ear and a helping hand. As a priest, Fr. Rutten hopes to “communicate God’s love to the people, bring reconciliation and peace, and be a guide in facing the challenges of our time.”

SOCIAL JUSTICE COUNCIL Faith & Racial Healing
“I realized I grew up and lived in a ‘white’ world and even after working with people of color in my working years, my knowledge of the history of slavery and its effects was very limited. This program gave me a better under-standing of the long term effects of slavery and some ideas how to make changes.” ~Participant in St. Odilia Faith and Racial Healing program Winter 2021

The 1920s ushered in drastic social, cultural, and artistic changes. Though one hundred years have passed, the action of a leading lady of that era echoes a powerful message for women of the 2020s. The evening also includes light appetizers, sweets and treats, a little shopping, and a few surprises!

2 de mayo 2021 5º Domingo de Pascua
El domingo pasado, el Señor Jesús se presentaba como el Buen Pastor, y ahora nos da la imagen de la vid y los sar-mientos. “Yo soy la vid verdadera y mi Padre es el labra-dor. Toda rama que no da fruto en mí, la corta. Y todo sarmiento que da fruto, lo limpia para que dé más fruto”. (Juan 15:1-2). La vida del cristiano es de un constante cambio de limpieza y permanencia. Todos los días se pre-sentan oportunidades nuevas de crecimiento humano y espiritual. Aquí se trata de crecer en Dios y dar fruto, y darse cuenta que sin Dios no se hace, ni se es nada. Es la prueba del discípulo, dar fruto en las cosas ordinarias, en las cosas sencillas. Haciéndolas extraordinarias por el amor. ¿Cómo estamos vinculados a Jesús en el mundo actual? ¿De qué manera doy fruto en este tiempo? Muchas ve-ces, es difícil permanecer unidos, hay tantas cosas que nos separan de Dios. La frialdad hacia el que sufre, el en-fermo, el pobre y desamparado. Nos urge un cambio ra-dical en el amor y en la confianza, de que unidos pode-mos movernos hacia el amor cristiano. Debemos esfor-zarnos día a día en hacer el bien, especialmente para de-jar algo provechoso a las generaciones venideras. Jesús lo afirmó claramente, al permanecer en él podremos pedir lo que queramos y sea de provecho para la salvación, y se cumplirá. Ese es el testamento. No hay vuelta de hoja. ¡Padre Santo, ayúdanos a permanecer muy cerca de Je-sús siempre! Especialmente, en tiempos de prueba. Te pedimos fe y esperanza. ©LPi

9 de mayo de 2021 6º Domingo de Pascua
La sociedad actual tiene muchos sufrimientos y sinsa-
bores; la pandemia ha dejado secuelas que no se cu-
ran tan fácilmente. Existe mucho por hacer, a pesar
de que tenemos
grandes héroes
que arriesgaron su
vida por la salud
de otros. Tanto en
el ambiente de la
salud y la comida,
hubo amor y
esperanza de parte de mucha gente. Las personas
eligieron hacer el bien en lugar de hacer el mal. La
Iglesia misionera reza incansablemente por la salud y
el bienestar de todos. ¿Qué hiciste tú, y que haces
para aliviar el dolor de los demás? ¿Dónde pusiste tu
amor durante el tiempo que estuviste en casa?
Hoy, la Liturgia nos presenta a Jesús con el mandato
de vivir la alianza del amor. “Ámense los unos a los
otros: esto es lo que les mando” (Juan 15:17). Tener
amor es un don que solo el Espíritu de Dios puede
encender en los corazones. Bien decimos al invocar al
Espíritu Santo: Ven, Espíritu Santo y enciende mi cora-
zón con el fuego de tu amor. Este Espíritu de Dios ha-
bita en nosotros desde nuestro bautismo. Solo falta
abrirle el corazón para que crezca su llama. De ese
modo estaremos listos para la misión. Quien se sabe
amado lleva hasta el extremo el mandato de Jesús.
¡Amar hasta el extremo! Sus buenas obras son silen-
ciosas pero llenas de misericordia. Con estas obras se
da razón de la esperanza, concretamente la esperanza
cristiana. Señor, ayúdanos a querer lo que tú haces y
que sepamos hacer lo que tú quieres de nosotros, es-
pecialmente en este momento de la historia. ©LPi

MAY GREEN OUTREACH ENVELOPE: Pastoral Care Ministry By John Jacobs
The more one gets to know about St. Odilia, the more one sees that it is a friendly and caring community. One ministry that exemplifies this in many wonderful ways is the Pastoral Care Ministry. This ministry reaches out to help people when they can most use that help — for example when a loved one dies. At other times someone might need a caring person to listen to them. A complete listing of the numerous activities of this ministry can be found on the St. Odilia web site, but for now, here are just a few of the ways the Pastoral Care Ministry provides services to those in need:
Communion Outreach: In-home distribution of Communion is available for those unable to attend weekend liturgies due to illness or disability. Communion is provided to 8 different facilities such as assisted living facilities and nursing homes.
Befriender Ministry: Compassionate and well-trained volunteers are available to listen in a caring way to people in all kinds of difficult or transitional situations.
Bereavement Ministry: Volunteers follow up with family members of people who have died. Cards are sent out, one-to-one support is offered, general questions are answered, and help is provided in finding resources needed at this difficult time.
This ministry thrives due to the prayers and active participation of our parish volunteers. We are also blessed to have the assistance of Sister Carol Anne, who has been doing amazing and tireless work during the pandemic. She has been calling and reaching out to people to offer help and support during these difficult times. If you would like to support the work of the Pastoral Care Ministry, please consider a contribution with the May Green Envelope.
