Third Sunday of Easter REFLECTION TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION During the third Sunday of Easter let us think about people The month of May has not only good weather, but an inter- whose lives are transformed by that first Easter experience; esng pedigree. It is named aer the Roman goddess Maia, people who encountered Jesus, risen from the dead and bring- said to be the mother of Hermes, or Mercury. The Romans saw ing new hope and meaning to their lives. On the contrary, very it as “love’s month,” while in England, more praccal farmers oen we experience what the disciples encountered in the called it “Three Milks,” since the cows grazing on springme’s bounty could produce at a phenomenal rate. Old customs die gospel of today. Several mes in our lives we have commied hard, and Chrisans have never made peace with Mayme mistakes, some serious, some trivial, when we had thought we frolics. No wonder that popular tradion dedicated the month’s knew what we were doing. Somemes we would not even prayers and devoons to Mary, although we cannot lose sight acknowledge and ask for pardon. Human understanding has its of the fact that the liturgy always has Easter at the center of own limitaons. No one would imagine that the disciples, aer celebraon. Recent developments have enriched Mary’s place their long stay with Jesus, would not recognize their Master in a cycle of feast days woven through the whole year, dedicat- aer the resurrecon. Divine illuminaon was what they ed Saturday as a weekly day for devoon, and highlighted lacked. Their sadness at his death has blinded them to what is Mary’s role in the Advent story. In fact, every day of the year happening before their very eyes. We can only recognize the Evening Prayer centers on the singing of Mary’s Cancle of risen Lord by being docile to the will of God and not relying only Praise. The fiy days of Easter culminate on Pentecost with on our intellectual fits, polical status or material possession. Mary, present of course for Christ’s birth, waing in the upper We also seek and find Divine illuminaon when we humbly room for the birth of the church. —James Field, Copyright © J.S. acknowledge our human limitaons and our mistakes. Above Paluch Co. all, our inner eyes are illumined by knowing and keeping God’s words. ~ Fr. Caroli Shao Pro-Life Corner Easter is a Season — Just as Sunday is one day out of seven, so the Easter season, a period of 50 days, is approximately one- seventh of the year. The Easter season, a me of special rejoic- ing and celebraon of the Resurrecon of Christ, is the “Great Sunday” of the year. The liturgical prayers and readings focus on the Resurrecon and the effects that it has on believers and on the world. The Acts of the Apostles is a book of Scripture that provides the source of most of the readings of the Easter Season, and it shows the vigor with which the apostles pro- claimed the Resurrecon and brought many to the waters of bapsm to share the new life of Christ. This season is a celebra- on of life, and leads us all to a deeper commitment to pro- claim, celebrate, and serve the gi of human life. — PriestsforLife.org Next week we will take up the Catholic Home Missions Appeal.

  • December Saints
    Saint of the Day December December 1: St. Edmund Campion, Martyr St. Edmund Campion was born in 1540 in Protestant London. An exceptionally bright child, he was given a good education. He went to Oxford in 1557, during the last year of Catholic Queen Mary’s reign. In 1566, he was given the honor of leading a debate in front of Queen Elizabeth I, who was impressed by him. He became a deacon in Church of England, but soon regretted it. He left England to enter a Catholic seminary in France and became a Jesuit in 1573. He knew then that he desired to return to England and secretly minister to Catholics there, despite the dangers. In 1580, St. Edmund went back to England disguised as a jewel merchant. He secretly preached and said Masses for one year before he was arrested, imprisoned and martyred in 1581. St. Edmund is one of the Forty Martyrs of England and Wales. December 2: St. Bibiana, Virgin and Martyr St. Bibiana was an early Christian martyr, probably living during the late 4th century in Rome. Christianity had been made legal by Constantine, but persecutions continued. Bibiana’s parents were martyred, leaving Bibiana and her sister Demetria alone in poverty. They fasted and prayed, refusing to give up their faith. Demetria died of hunger and Bibiana, after undergoing harsh questioning, died a few days later. Their home was turned into a church, and is now the site of the Basilica of Santa Bibiana. December 3: St. Francis Xavier St. Francis Xavier was born in Spain in 1506.

  • Transition in the Parish Office
    April 19th, 2020 @ 2nd Sunday of Easter Today’s Readings: 903 Transition in the Parish Office After a long planned retirement from her role as parish Business Manager, Jeanne Im was finally able this past week to pass the baton. Under Jeanne’s stewardship we have received outstanding reports from our au- dits, and she implemented best practices in accounting and management. Jeanne has guided the parish through several chapters of growth and change. These include the very successful Built On Rock and then the One Faith, One Family campaigns, the installation of a new roof over the parish center, the paying off of the church debt, the raising funds for the new church floor, and the soon-to-be- installed new church pews. While adjusting to constant updates and revisions to payroll, taxes, business law, and human resource regulations, she also made sure that all Virtus requirements were being met by all staff and volunteers. On top of that Jeanne teaches religious education, serves at Mass, and volunteers at the Leavenworth County Humane Society. We are grateful to Jeanne and recognize the many sacrifices which no doubt affected her family members, husband Peter, and boys Michael and Andrew. When we are permitted to come together once again for Mass we have a special gift to give Jeanne to show our gratitude. Fortunately for us, Jeanne promises to continue to be an active volunteer in our parish life. Assuming the role of Business Manager is a veteran of parish accounting, Nancy Elmer. Nancy is a Leavenworth native and worked during high school at A&W with a youthful, good-looking and ambitious classmate, Bill McEvoy.

  • Saints to Remember – April St
    Saints to Remember – April St. Francis of Paola (1416-1507) Hermit. Patron Saint of boatmen, mariners, naval officers, sailors, travelers, watermen, against fire, against plague, against sterility. Feast Day: April 2 St. Francis of Paola was just 13 when he entered the Franciscan order after a pilgrimage to Assisi. At 15, he became a hermit and embraced austere penances as part of his solitary, contemplative life. Before long, other like-minded young men joined him, and in 1436, he founded the order of Hermits of St. Francis of Assisi. St. Francis of Paola believed that heroic mortification was necessary for spiritual growth and added the observance of a perpetual Lenten fast to the traditional monastic vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience. Known for his holiness and humility, St. Francis was often called upon to arbitrate disputes, and eventually he was sent by Pope Sixtus IV to serve King Louis XI of France. Called from contemplation to active ministry, this humble hermit suddenly found himself settling international disputes and ministering to kings! “Be peace-loving,” he counseled. “Peace is a precious treasure to be sought with great zeal.” He remained in the French court until his death, and founded many monasteries in France. May the humility and flexibility of this steward saint inspire us to use our gifts in new ways and new places as God directs us. St Isidore (556-636), Bishop and Doctor. Patron Saint of computer technicians, computer users, computers, the Internet, schoolchildren, students. Feast Day: April 4 Born of a noble Spanish family, St Isadore had two brothers, Leander and Fulgentius, and a sister, Florentina, who also became saints.
