Good News from St. Patrick's & St. Joseph's Volume 141 Good News1 from April 2013 St. Patrick’s & St. Joseph’s Volume 141 April 2013 Dear Parishioners, In This Issue The Divine Mercy of Jesus The Father so Loved the World... By assuming our humanity, taking on our sin, bringing himself to the cross, giving Himself over, pouring Himself out, Jesus washes, redeems, and purchases this very humanity, our humanity, that He assumed. He then offers us, like Himself (as Him- self) to His Heavenly Father. Praise be to God for His Mercy. The Divine Mercy of Jesus flowing from His Most Sacred Heart flows upon us and the whole world. This Sacred Blood and Water that flowed from that Wounded Side of our Savior forever has transformed humanity. Our newly transformed humanity gives us that new and profound relationship with the Fa- Prayer Requests - Pg. 2 ther through the power of the Holy Spirit. We are MADE into His son, His daughter. Baptism - Pg. 2 Deceased - Pg. 2 The ONE AND ONLY act of His Death and Crucifixion is perpetuated through the Supper we call “The Last”. Here, in this foreshadowing of His death, Jesus gives His Knights of Columbus - Pg. 3 Body (“This is My Body...Given”) and His Blood (“This is My Blood...Poured Out”) Bethlehem Chapel Gift Shop - to humanity and further, gives His Apostles a command (Do This) to continue this Pg. 4 very act of His self-immolation. Cemetery Policy - Pg. 5 So, while we have ONLY ONE ACT OF ULTIMATE SACRIFICE, the singular act is perpetuated throughout time until its end through the Sacrifice of the Mass. This Year of Faith Retreat - Pg. 6 “PERPETUAL SACRIFICE OF PRAISE” continues to wash, redeem, and purchase us. The Holy Mass offers humanity to the Heavenly Father as His Son offers Himself School News - Pg. 7 to His Most Beloved. Year of Faith Music - Pg. 8 Moreover, in that climatic moment when we RECEIVE HOLY COMMUNION, we Altar Society - Pg. 8 partake of the One who GIVES AND POURS OUT! He abides in us and we abide in Him! We become the BODY OF CHRIST! Birthdays/Anniversaries - Pg. 9 WE BECOME WHAT WE CONSUME! Calendar - Pg. 10 How fitting that we celebrate FIRST COMMUNION ON DIVINE MERCY SUN- DAY! We continue to pray that we, who have received thousands of Communions, may never take for granted the tremendous gift of mercy “Given” and “Poured out” upon us as we receive Our Blessed Lord. For God so Loved the World.... In Nomine Christi, Father B.X. Gorges Pastor Volume 141 2 April 2013 PRAYER REQUESTS We have had 47 requests for prayer this past month. Please continue to pray for those fighting or recovering from illness.

Dick serves on the house committee and helps with repairs of the building and any of the appliances. He works a shift at St. Patrick Bargain Store and helps load the truck when we get an excess of used cloth- ing. He helped most recently with the cutting and breading of the fish for the fish fry. He and RoAnn help at the enchilada rolls and helps with the different din- ners. Dick is a 4th Degree member of the Knights. He is retired from the State and works on clocks as a hobby. Thank you Richard for your service. Keeping Current: Bud Kneeland sends out reminders for meetings and activities via e-mails and he needs a few more addresses from the membership. His e-mail address: [email protected]. This comes in very handy when we need to change a meeting time or date at the last minute or a change needs to be made on an up- coming activity. If you aren’t currently receiving his e-mails then he needs yours. Knights of the Holy Grill continued from last month. Kirk Fickel, Bob Huerter, Joe Gobea, Herman Colvin, and we can’t forget those who cooked when we had our monthly breakfast and that would include Tim Fairchild (who fancied up pancakes) and Ralph Berthot, Rocky DeLaTorre, Ron Flowers, Dale Cook, John Allen, Pat Al- len. The fish fry’s were terrific. We served a record number of people and many are waiting for next year. I wish to thank everyone who helped cut and bread the fish and fixed the coleslaw and copper penny salad plus cakes, corn bread and all the regular cooks and especially those who cleaned up afterwards. No job is complete until the last dish is cleaned and put away. I would name names but I would miss someone and that would be a trav- esty. Graduates: We are in charge this year of putting on the brunch for the seniors and their families and invitations have been sent out and now we await their confirmation of the number of people they will be bringing. We al- ternate every other year with the Altar Society for putting on the brunch. This is also when we award the $1,000.00 scholarship. The scholarship forms need to be picked up and returned no later than April 17th. The brunch will be held on May 5th after the 10:00am Mass. We ask the seniors to come and sit together up front in your cap and gowns if possible, thank you. Convention is coming up at the end of the month and we need another person who would like to go with ex- penses paid. The council pays for your room and banquet tickets plus the mixer on Sunday evening and mile- age. If you would be interested please call Herman Colvin at 431-0393. Knights membership drive during the month of April. Iola will hold a major degree on April 28th and we need new members. If you aren’t a Knight then why not? We do many charitable activities to support Pro-life, voca- tions, disaster aid, etc. If meetings aren’t your bag, then would you volunteer once or twice a year for charity work. Our Insurance and Annuity programs are voluntary but death is not. We have a triple A rated program and as a member of the Knights, you can not be turned down. Again, contact any Knight and get involved. Volume 141 4 April 2013 Bethlehem Chapel Shirley Herold What does it mean to be a Catholic?
