Dear Friends,

THIRD On this Third Sun- SUNDAY day of Easter, we OF EASTER read in the Gospel about the disciples April 26, 2020 on the road to Em- maus and they meet a fellow traveler, who they do not im- St. Mary’s Church mediately recognize as the Risen Lord. will be open for personal prayer There is so much to Monday - Thursday contemplate in this 8:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m. story (Luke 24:13- Please use the front 35), but I will point doors of the church. out two things in particular. First, notice how the disciples tell this traveler (Jesus) about all that had happened in Jerusalem and then Jesus’ response to them. He says: “‘Oh, how foolish you are! How slow of heart to believe all that the prophets spoke! Was it not nec- Monday, April 27 essary that the Christ should suffer these things and enter into his glory?’ Then beginning Adoration, with and all the prophets, he interpreted to them what referred to him in all the Confession Scriptures.” & Benediction (SM) 5:30 - 6:30 p.m. Isn’t this exactly what happens at Mass? In the first part of Mass, the Liturgy of the Word, we hear the readings from Scripture. These readings usually come from the Law or the Prophets, then a Psalm (Old Testament), then a New Testament reading and a passage from the Gospel. One purpose of the homily or sermon is precisely to show how Wed, April 29 all these readings relate to Jesus, who He is and what He means for us. Adoration, Confession Second, when they arrive at Emmaus, we can see how Jesus’ identity is revealed. & Benediction “So he went in to stay with them. And it happened that, while he was with them at table, 5:30 - 6:30 p.m. he took bread, said the blessing, broke it, and gave it to them. With that their eyes were St. Katharine Drexel opened and they recognized him, but he vanished from their sight.” Why did He vanish? at St. Patrick’s, He vanished because He is the Bread. In this short passage we have a basic outline of the Macedon Mass: the Scriptures are read, they are explained, and – just as we see Jesus doing at the Last Supper and in our Gospel today – the priest takes the bread, blesses it, breaks it, and gives it to the people since it is truly Christ’s own Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity.

At each Mass, Jesus comes to us, personally, to offer Himself at the hands of the priest, as our food for the journey. “Stay with us, for it is nearly evening and the day is almost over.”

Wishing Fr. Anthony Amato a happy and blessed birthday on Thursday, April 30th! Keep Father Amato in your prayers.

Thank you for your generous donations of non- perishable food on Easter Sunday. Many people drove through and picked up a bottle of Holy water and a candle that was blessed at the Easter vigil mass and dropped off some food. This current crisis has put a strain on the food pantries and other organizations that help those in need. If you did not get Holy water and a candle, there are still some available in the back of St. Mary's church. The church is open for private pray- er Monday through Thursday from 8 a.m. - 2:00 p.m.

Fr. Symon, Fr. Amato, and the Finance and Parish councils would like to thank you for the contin- ued financial support of the Parish during this pandem- ic. Hopefully, we will be able to worship together as a parish family soon. You and your families remain in our prayers. it is important that you and your loved ones know to call us, your priests, should you need us and the Sacraments. Call us anytime. GILSON & FR.
