SAINT PATRICK ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH Easter Sunday of the Resurrection of the Lord March 27, 2016 Page 2 Easter Sunday of the Resurrection of the Lord Dear Friends in Christ, Happy Easter! With our Easter celebration this weekend we commemorate, as we have in our two millennia history, the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. On that first Easter, “The First Day of the Week,” Jesus showed himself to the Apostles as the risen Lord. This unexpected encounter, strange and unsettling, vividly presented before the Apostles, alive, the man who died three days earlier. He stands before them with new life that can no longer be threatened by death. Hence He inaugurates a new type of life that has changed the world. As such, at Easter we come to proclaim and celebrate with the church universal this truth that Christ Jesus in dying destroyed our death and in rising has restored our life. God so loved the world that he gave His son, a perfect man, for an imperfect world wounded by sin. Humanity wounded by sin put itself at enmity with God, the source of life, and so inherited the just condemnation of death for, “the wages of sin is death.” (Rom 6:33) Hence God made Him, His son Jesus, who knew no sin to become sin so that sin would die on the cross in our place in order that we would become the righteousness of God. (2 Cor 5:21). The good news of the resurrection has changed the course of human history for good. It is the foundation of all we do as Christians; the love we show; forgiveness we offer; our prayers and almsgiving are all based on the foundation laid by the resurrection. We are also convinced that even if we die doing good, we, like Jesus, will be raised in order that we may live with God in eternal life. This is our faith. At baptism we received the down payment of our resurrection so we could live in this world, in the newness of life in anticipation of eternal life. This new life seeks the things that are above where Christ is seated at the right hand of God. May Jesus’ resurrection give to our parish family, collectively, and to all of us, individually, the fresh outpouring of the Holy Spirit and the impetus to live in the newness of life. Happy Easter! In Christ, Fr. Godwin In Gratitude May I take this time to thank all of you; those who are always here, those visiting and those who have come after a long time; thank you and welcome to our family of faith in St. Patrick parish. Our special thanks go to Deacon Dennis Holian and family; Carleen Murphy and the liturgical team - lectors, Eucharistic ministers, altar servers, ushers; Cecilia Adams and the choirs, Lisa Johnson and the Youth Ministry, our staff, the Arts and Environment team led by Kelley Orr, and the many other individuals, who helped with Masses, Stations of the Cross on Friday and Pat Kane and Jeanette Dentro and all others who helped with the Soup and Salad Dinners that followed. To all of you who made sacrifices of time, talents and treasures to see to the success of our Lenten and Easter celebrations, thank you. Congratulations We congratulate Michele Noble and Elizabeth O’Neill who were received into the Catholic Church at the Easter Vigil as well as Rose Kniesel who completed the Sacraments of Initiation with Confirmation. Next Sunday they begin the final part of their RCIA journey, Mystagogy (from the Greek words meaning “to lead through the mysteries”), which leads to Pentecost Sunday. The newly baptized are called “neophytes,” from the Greek words meaning “new plant,” because the faith has been newly planted in them. Even though their catechetical preparation has been completed, they still have much to learn about what it means to live as Catholic Christians. We thank Bill Preston and the RCIA team who walked with them on this journey of faith. Come celebrate Divine Mercy with us next Sunday, April 3rd (the Second Sunday of Easter). Our Divine Mercy celebration will begin at 2:00PM with Confession followed at 2:30PM with Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament and at 3:00PM the sung Chaplet of Divine Mercy. We will finish with Mass at 3:30PM. If you attend Mass earlier in the day on Sunday, and participate in the 3:30PM Mass, you are welcome to receive the Eucharist at this second Mass. Easter Sunday of the Resurrection of the Lord Page 3 Flowers and Church Decorations Alleluia! Rejoice! Jesus Christ is Risen! Both the living and the deceased give praise to the Risen Lord. Thanks to all who donated in memory of a loved one to embrace the Risen Lord in our Sanctuary. Deo Gratia!

The meeting will follow and take place in the Lane Room with refreshments. All ladies of the parish are invited. Mark your calendars for April 9 following the 4pm Mass. We are having Mime for Life perform at our parish. Mime for Life is a group of teens that perform a mimed performance that walks through 2 crisis pregnancies. It is a powerful performance showing the merciful love of Christ and a Catholic pro-life message. The group is organized at St. Mary's in Woodstock. The performance is somewhat graphic, so we recommend it for children 8th grade and older with parents in attendance. It is a great conversation starter for families. The performance will last about half an hour, the group will provide a question and answer time, and then we will have refreshments and social time. If you have any questions or would like to help, please contact Lisa Johnson at 815-347-2583 or lewjohnson09@yahoo.com. Reservation Flyers available in the Narthex, Chapel, Parish Office or Website (www.stpatrickmchenry.org) OR Reservations can be made online via www.pilgrimages.com/stpatrickmchenry. Life Notes Our relationships on earth are meant to help us and others grow in perfect love. We are meant to depend on one another, serve each other in humility, and walk together in times of suffering. 2015-16 Respect Life Program Flyer, www.goo.gl/sYADTw USCCB Secretariat of Pro-Life Activities Easter Sunday of the Resurrection of the Lord What Are The Extraordinary Graces of Divine Mercy Sunday? Within the Diary of St. Faustina, Jesus mentions over and over, the great importance of The Feast of Mercy and the extraordinary graces He will grant: My daughter, tell the whole world about My inconceivable mercy. I desire that the Feast of Mercy be a refuge and shelter for all souls, and especially for poor sinners. The soul that will go to Confession and receive Holy Communion will obtain complete forgiveness of sins and punishment (699). I want to grant a complete pardon to the souls that will go to Confession and receive Holy Communion on the Feast of My mercy (1109). Whoever approaches the Fountain of Life on this day will be granted complete forgiveness of sins and punishment (300). Not only are we completely forgiven by God, but we receive many additional extraordinary graces. I pour out a whole ocean of graces upon those souls who approach the fount of My mercy. This is a day of miracles. Ask and you shall receive. Knock and the door will be open to you. The Lord always gives in abundance. How to Observe the Feast of Mercy: 1) Celebrate the Feast on the Sunday after Easter. (April 3, 2016) 2) Sincerely repent of all our sins by going to Confession, preferably beforehand. 3) Place our complete trust in Jesus. 4) Receive Holy Communion on the day of the Feast. 5) Venerate the Image of The Divine Mercy. 6) Be merciful to others, through our actions, words, and prayers on their behalf.

Alleluia! Easter is always, but especially in this Jubilee Year of Mercy, the victory of God's gentle but invincible mercy raising up Jesus, "faithful witness, the first-born of the dead" (Revelation 1:5), "first-born among many brothers [and sisters]" (Romans 8:29), conquering death in all its forms, in all of us in the human family. In Luke's Vigil Gospel, heavenly messengers send the women forth: "Remember what [Jesus] said to you" (Luke 24:6). In John's Gospel, the empty tomb likewise "sends forth" Mary Magdalene, Peter, and the Beloved Disciple, who believe though they do not fully understand. Finally, Luke's evening "Emmaus" Gospel sends us forth, as "missionaries of mercy," assuring us that we will encounter the Risen Lord, today and every day, in "the stranger" we meet along life's journey, in "the Word that makes our hearts burn within us," and "in the breaking of bread" (see Luke 24:32, 35). --Peter Scagnelli, Copyright (c) J.
