On Wednesday, April 10th, East Lake Academy held its annual Science Fair. Students in grades 5 – 8 exhibited the results of months of scientific inquiry, experimentation, and investigation by filling the gym with their impressive displays. That afternoon, students presented their projects to a panel of judges com- prised of current and former East Lake parents, friends of current families, and even a few teachers (thanks, Ms. Kinzler and Mr. Stack!). The children thoroughly impressed the judges with their maturity and good manners, and several judges spoke highly of the students’ ability to explain their experiments with clarity and confi- dence. Later that night, parents were invited to come and see the projects and to cele- brate the culmination of months of hard work on the part of their children (and themselves!). After having the opportunity to survey projects for a while, students and parents gathered in the middle of the gym as the moment of truth was at hand: It was time for Mrs. Fuller to announce the top places in this year’s Science Fair. Here are the results: 2ND PLACE WINNER 3RD PLACE WINNER 4TH PLACE WINNER Allen Mons Max Calk Kiki Ogbuefi th th th 5 grade 7 grade 7 grade TH OVERALL WINNER 5 PLACE WINNER Isabelle Haser Karina Kavanagh 8th grade 8th grade Congratulations to all participants, as this year’s scores were the highest they’ve ever been.

Grades 5, 6, 7, and 8 have enjoyed their opportunities to volunteer at PADS this year. They made beds, served dinner, and washed dishes for the PADS guests. Even grades K-4 indirectly “volunteered” by making spiritual placemats, which the PADS guests LOVED! They’ve never received such personal and lovingly made items, when moving from shelter to shelter. Because the shelter we volunteered in is a family shelter, many of our students were moved from serving homeless chil- dren who are their own age. This PADS shelter only operates during the months of October-April. Please keep the families who rely on these PADS shelters, in your prayers.

Ephesians 2:10 Currently, the students in grades K-8 are visiting retirement homes this month. Grades K-2 visited Winchester House The residents received such pleasure from praying the rosary with our students and listening to them sing a few songs. Grades 3-5 will be going to Little Sisters of the Poor-St. Joseph’s Home to attend Mass with the residents and to entertain them with delightful songs, while grades 6-8 will be heading to Queen Convent at Resurrec- tion Health Center. The residents at this location are looking forward to praying the rosary with our students. Looking ahead, the apostolic committee is eagerly planning a very fun afternoon, on Sunday, June 2nd, at 2:00, for our girls who have been growing their hair long in anticipation of donating 10”-12” ponytails. Touche Salon in Liber- tyville has graciously agreed to support our endeavor and will be cutting the ponytails that will be donated to Wigs for Kids. They have also offered a free professional cut and style to each girl who donates! Your encouragement, as these girls enter their final months of growing their hair, is truly appreciated! (Specific details will be forthcoming, to those who’ve already given their intent on participating.) The apostolic committee is incredibly grateful to our parents who assist us in apostolic formation! We could not plan these meaningful, hands-on experiences without your willingness to transport and chaperone for our excursions! Thank you!

    St. Peter Catholic Student Center Baylor Catholic Spring 2019 Serving the Catholic Community at Baylor University, McLennan Community College, & Texas State Technical College SEEK 2019: An Arena of Grace Thousands of students. Arms raised, clapping. Some students calling out. Some in silence. At times everyone singing. It sounds like a Baylor sporting event, but this past January, 17 thousand young people gathered in Indianapolis, not to support their school’s sports teams, but to worship, to listen, to confess, and transform their lives by attending SEEK. SEEK is a biennial conference hosted by the Fellowship of Catholic University Students (FOCUS) in major cities across the United States. This year, 60 Baylor Catholic students joined thousands of other students, priests, consecrated persons, and speakers to learn what they truly yearn for: encountering Christ. A common thread in the talks was the speakers’ gratitude for and recognition of the sincere faith, witness, and commitment that flows from this Catholic community. During the five-day conference, our students attended talks by notable Catholic speakers like Sr. Mirian James (right), Leah Darrow, Jason Evert, and Sarah Swafford. Talks like these are the heart of all the FOCUS conferences and known for their inspiration, but also for having a strong call to action. “During Fr. Mike Schmitz’s talk on the last day, I heard how destructive indifference can be,” said Will Mullen (left), ‘20. “He talked about how if we truly believe in the Catholic faith then we are being selfish in not sharing its truth with those that we love. I needed this to give me the encouragement to share my faith more boldly with my friends.” Kate Ballantyne, ‘21, was particularly struck by a talk on prayer.

OPUS DEi AND ITS ARRIVAL IN AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND • A thesis presented in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Philosophy in Religious Studies at Massey University. Marina Middelplaats 2001 Some biographers of saints have in the past been interested only in highlighting extraordinary things in the lives of God's serv­ ants, from even their earliest days in the cradle. They have, unintentionally perhaps, done a disservice to christian truth. They even said of some of them that as babies they did not cry, nor drink their mother's mi lk on Fridays, out of a spirit of pen­ ance. You and I came into this world crying our heads off, and we most assuredly drank our milk in total disregard for fasts and ember days. -Josemaria Escriva de Balaguer, Christ is Passing By, 1974:26.

In two separate, private Masses, 36 young parishioners partook, for the first time, of the Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of our Savior through the holy Eucharist. Congratulations to each and every one of them! Traditionally, RCIA members are confirmed and receive the Eucharist for the first time during the Easter Vigil. However, the suspension of Masses left our church empty during Holy Week and postponed the welcoming of two new members into the Catholic Faith. John Icenogle and Lindsay Lund renewed their baptismal vows and received the sacraments of Confirmation and First Communion at the Saturday evening Mass on June 13th. Serving God and Others Prince of Peace Newsletter Page 2 A Vocation of Service to God and Others Dana Kennedy, daughter of parishioners, Jim and Lisa Kennedy, has spent the last 18 years serving God and His church, both in the United States and abroad. Born and raised in Kearney, Dana was baptized as an infant in the Lutheran Church. Jim and Lisa were very active in their church, volunteering in its youth ministry programs. When Dana was 10, her mom started having long, theological conversations with a Catholic coworker leading her to read and learn more about Catholicism. Lisa ultimately decided to convert. Dana recalls that despite the controversy and unrest her this caused within their church and extended family, she could see how happy the Catholic faith made her mother.

  • Thy Kingdom Come! Central Commission for the Review of The
    Thy Kingdom Come! Central Commission for the Review of the Statutes of Regnum Christi Theme for Study and Reflection Number 5 Charism and History of Regnum Christi Goal To prepare ourselves for the revision of the statutes of the Regnum Christi Movement for the first and second degrees, we need to take into account the charism of Regnum Christi, since the statutes should serve precisely to guard and promote that charism. We are seeking to understand what is the charism of a movement and how it is lived, so that then we can go on to remember the fundamental characteristics of our own, remembering the spiritual experience we share and its history, as well as the approval and other indications of the authority of the Church. Outline A. The charism of a spiritual family: Charisms are special graces that the Holy Spirit grants to faithful Christians for the good of the Church and of its mission in the world. By spiritual family, we mean a group of faithful Christians that, sharing a charism, are united by spiritual affinity and friendship in Christ. The charism of a spiritual family is collective and dynamic and generates a spiritual heritage. We pay special attention to the case of the founder of Regnum Christi. B. What spiritual experience helps us to form Regnum Christi? The discovery of the personal love of Christ, who calls us to share his mission, generates in us the desire to respond to him by doing our best to be authentic Christians and to make an active effort to introduce people to him so they will be transformed into his disciples.

    OPUS DEI (Prelature of the Holy Cross and Opus Dei, simply) OPUS DEI (Prelature of the Holy Cross and Opus Dei, simply) OPUS DEI (Prelature of the Holy Cross and Opus Dei, simply). Opus Dei is an institution of the Catholic Church whose mission is to put into practice the doctrine of the universal call to holiness and to promote among people of all social classes the sanctification of professional work in the circumstances of ordinary life. Its legal status is that of a personal prelature, the Prelature of the Holy Cross and Opus Dei or simply Opus Dei. In other words, it is a universal hierarchical institution of the prelature type, as provided for in the Second Vatican Council, established to undertake special pastoral tasks and endowed with its own statutes. Through the Priestly Society of the Holy Cross, an association of clerics intrinsically linked to the prelature, it helps diocesan priests live the doctrine of the universal call to holiness in the exercise of their holy ministry.

  • 2020 Annual Report
    2020 Annual Report A Place to Encounter Christ An oasis inside the beltway of Washington D.C. A MESSAGE FROM OUR PRESIDENT, FR. DANIEL PAJERSKI, LC Thy Kingdom Come! At a decisive moment in our Lord’s public ministry, he challenged his disciples with an unexpected and unprecedented teaching that shook their faith. Many of them had recently witnessed Jesus perform a miracle by feeding thousands of hungry followers. Then, he revealed to them his plan to give them bread from heaven to eat: his very flesh. Because this teaching was too difficult to grasp, many disciples returned to their former way of life. In the midst of the ensuing chaos and confusion, St. Peter stepped forward and proclaimed, “Master, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life.” What allowed Peter to be so bold at such a crucial moment? He listened to Christ’s call and followed it. He allowed Christ to reveal the love of his heart to him. That was the rock on which Peter built his faith. There would certainly be more challenging times ahead for Peter, but we know he ended up giving his life for his master. We at Our Lady of Bethesda have done our best to respond to the past year’s challenges with this same firmness of faith, motivated by the love of Christ. We hope this annual report will give you a glimpse into our efforts to help others nourish their souls by encountering Christ. In 2021, we hope to continue to be an oasis inside the Washington, D.C.

  • Manżelství – Cesta Ke Svatosti
    Vítám tuto knihu, která v řadě medailonů ukazuje sku- tečné rodiny z nedávné doby, které v různých prostředích 40 a různých situacích dovedly jít po svaté cestě. Žádný z těch manželských párů není možné kopírovat. Každý z nich však může inspirovat. A.M.I.M.S. M. A.M.I.M.S. M. Mons. Jan Graubner Původně jsem hledala příklady pro laiky žijící v manželství, pro duchovní obnovy a později začal vycházet seriál Man- želství – cesta ke svatosti v časopise Rodinný život. Reakce mne přesvědčily, že je dobré dát lidem příklady manželů elé 20. století z moderní doby. V knize jsou zahrnuty jak manželské páry, ž tak jednotliví manželé, manželky – kandidáti svatosti. Ča- sové období je rok úmrtí 1950 a dále. Občas jsem udělala vatí man výjimku. Za každým medailonem jsou otázky či podněty S • k možnému přemýšlení, rozjímání, ideálně i společnému. Možná je nebudete potřebovat a položíte si jiné. V kaž- dém případě v životech svatých nejde jen o informace jako o fakta, ale mělo by jít o „in-formace“, o to, co do nás vstoupí a formuje nás.
