Second Sunday
of Easter
Divine Mercy
St. Edward’s Annual Dinner & Fashion Show
From the Pastor’s Desk
“Then he said to Thomas, ‘Put your finger here
and see my hands, and bring your hand and put it
into my side, and do not be unbelieving, but believe.’ Thomas answered… ‘My Lord and my
God!’ Jesus said to him, ‘Have you come to believe because you have seen me? Blessed are those
who have not seen and have believed.’”
This exchange of words between the Risen
Lord and St. Thomas are indeed familiar to us,
in fact we hear them every Second Sunday of
Easter. Yes, they are familiar, but the danger
with familiar words is that we get so used to
hearing them, that we fail to listen to them, or
they fail to move us as they should. When we
look at St. Thomas we are filled with many
emotions, especially when we hear that he refused to believe the account the other Apostles
told him about seeing the Risen Lord. We might
even be upset with him for leaving the room, for
abandoning the others. Some of us, however,
may totally agree with Thomas and say that they
too would not have believed the story of seeing
the Risen Jesus. They too would say I have to see
it with my own eyes!
But key to the account of Thomas’ doubt is
Jesus’ words to him to believe. Belief is defined
as the ability to accept or regard something as
true; to accept the truth of what is said by someone or what is written, and to trust completely in
the context (in this case the New Testament).
Without believing in Jesus, as He is and who He
is, you can never see the truth about Him. Without believing in Jesus as the one sent by the
Father, and who is one with the Father the
world cannot be saved. Not because God is petty
and says to us, if you will not accept me, I will
stop loving you and not allow you into the kingdom. God is never like that, because He loves us
unconditionally, but if we refuse to believe we
are the ones who are cutting ourselves off from
God and all He wants to give us through the
Life, Death and Resurrection of Jesus Christ.
I believe that St. Thomas truly wanted to
believe the other Apostles, when they told him
about the appearance of the Risen Lord, and I
believe that he was hoping it was true, but it was
for him too much to believe. It was for Thomas
something that was too good to be true, so he
chose not to believe or trust.
This lack of trust is what got him into trouble
and it blocked his mind, heart and soul from
believing the others, even our dear Blessed
Mother.
This all changes when he sees Jesus and Jesus
does take Thomas to task for not believing and
trusting in His word and the word of the others.
This is only for a short period of time, for
Thomas discontinues his disbelief and not only
does he believe, he is totally converted and thus
makes the most profound statement of faith
found in the New Testament when he falls on his
knees and declares, “My Lord and my God.”
How about us, will we be like doubting
Thomas and believe in only what we can see, or
will we trust completely in God and the promises
made throughout the ages (as we recalled them
last Saturday night at the Easter Vigil). The
promises that he would deliver us from sin,
death and darkness, that God would send us
a Messiah who would bring us new light and life.
Christ tells us in today’s Gospel blessed are
those who have not seen and have believed, is
that you, is that me? To some degree it must be
us, or we would not be here today, but we can
always grow more in our trust and faith and
perhaps we can share that with others. After all
once St. Thomas received the Holy Spirit, he
went out to India to share his faith and began
the founding of the Church in one of Asia’s most
important areas. And Thomas would die because of his faith in Jesus.
Today is also Divine Mercy Sunday, this day
was declared officially on the Church’s
Calendar by Saint Pope John Paul II, as he confirmed the visions of the Risen Lord to
St. Faustina, and that this day was to be
dedicated to the Divine Mercy and the Icon that
was written with the words “Jesus I trust in
you.” Our Lord wants us to approach Him, not
like Thomas with fear or disbelief, but with love,
confidence and total trust in Him.
Happy Easter!

Gospel Glimpses

John 20:19-31
"Unless I see - I will not believe"
Whom we remember with love and gratitude.
The Altar Bread & Wine
For the week of April 12, 2015 – April 18, 2015
is Given in Loving Memory of:
Do you know the joy of the resurrection? The Risen Lord Jesus
revealed the glory of his resurrection to his disciples gradually
and over a period of time. Even after the apostles saw the
empty tomb and heard the reports of Jesus' appearance to the
women, they were still weak in faith and fearful of being
arrested by the Jewish authorities. When Jesus appeared to
them he offered proofs of his resurrection by showing them the
wounds of his passion, his pierced hands and side. He calmed
their fears and brought them peace, the peace which reconciles
sinners and makes us friends of God. Jesus did something
which only love and trust can do. He commissioned his weak
and timid apostles to bring the good news of the Gospel to the
ends of the earth. This sending out of the disciples is parallel to
the sending out of Jesus by his heavenly Father. Jesus fulfilled
his mission through his perfect love and obedience to the will
of his Father. He called his first disciples and he now calls each
one of us to do the same. Just as he gave his first disciples the
gift of the Holy Spirit, so he breathes on each of us the same
Holy Spirit who equips us with new life, power, joy, and
courage to live each day as followers of the Risen Lord. The
last apostle to meet the resurrected Lord was the first to go with
him to Jerusalem at Passover time. The apostle Thomas was a
natural pessimist. When Jesus proposed that they visit Lazarus
after receiving news of his illness, Thomas said to the
disciples: "Let us also go, that we may die with him" (John
11:16). While Thomas deeply loved the Lord, he lacked the
courage to stand with Jesus in his passion and crucifixion.
After Jesus' death, Thomas made the mistake of withdrawing
from the other apostles. He sought loneliness rather than
fellowship in his time of trial and adversity. He doubted the
women who saw the resurrected Jesus and he doubted his own
fellow apostles. When Thomas finally had the courage to rejoin
the other apostles, the Lord Jesus made his presence known to
him and reassured him that he had indeed overcome death and
risen again. When Thomas recognized his Master, he believed
and exclaimed that Jesus was truly Lord and truly God!

From the Pastoral Associate’s Office
Since our last communication...we have had so many events
taking place, there was simply no space in the bulletin to add our
column. So, please allow us to report on some past and some
present news…
Our Parish Lenten Mission…with Redemptorist Fathers Pat
Woods and John McGowan was one of the finest Missions the
Parish has ever had. Parishioners who attended still speak of the
positive Lenten experience and our gratitude goes out to both
Fr. Pat & Fr. John and the many groups and volunteers who
worked each night to make our Mission one of spirituality,
prayer and community participation.
Throughout Lent...we had many great meaningful opportunities with Morning Prayer, Taize, Family Stations of the Cross,
the screening of Romero, Reconciliation & our Lenten Soup
Supper to name a few. Our thanks to all who worked on making
our Lenten experience a fruitful one.
Palm Sunday...unfortunately severe weather on Palm Sunday
caused us to cancel our Community Blessing of Palms with our
neighbors at Faith Lutheran. We wish to acknowledge Pastor
John Krahn and look forward to coming together again at our
Thanksgiving Interfaith Service.
Holy Week and the Triduum...could not have been more beautiful or solemn. Sister Sheila, Deacon Jim and Fr. Mike were all
inspirational in their Morning Prayer reflections and both Fr.
Mike and Fr. Hyacinth gave beautiful homilies throughout the
three days. Our thanks to our incredible Choir under the direction of Marilyn and Jeff Fox. The work and effort by our Music
Ministry was so evident in each and every note that was played
and sung. Thanks also to our Children's Choir under the direction of Ciel Hayden at the 9:30 AM Mass and our Youth Group,
under the direction of Carolyn Pugliesi for their presentation of
“The Living Stations of the Cross” on Good Friday. Thanks also
to all who served as Lectors, Extraordinary Ministers, Ushers &
Greeters, Sacristans and Altar Servers. Each Liturgy was so well
executed, attended and made meaningful by the participation
and inclusion of the entire Parish.
Easter Sunday...with the spring weather finally with us, thousands came to worship here on Easter Sunday. So many commented on how beautiful the Church looked and we are grateful
to our dedicated team of decorators, cleaners and carpenters who
prepared the Church. There are too many to mention without
leaving someone out-THANK YOU! To all who were with us as
“regulars”, guests and visitors, we are grateful for your generosity and hope that somehow your Easter was made better by being
here as part of the St. Edward’s Community.
Our Capital Campaign...continues to move forward with over
50% of the $2,089,612.82 pledged already collected within the
first year of the 3-year pledge period. The Rectory kitchen is
now under construction and should be completed within the next
few weeks. The next major project that is under way now is our
Stained Glass Windows! A few memorial opportunities still exist for Stained Glass Windows. Contact Deacon Ray for information.
Catholic Ministries Appeal...is also underway with our Parish
achieving over 80% of its $116,000 goal. See the bulletin for the
weekly updates and please consider making your 2015 Appeal
gift. Once we achieve our goal, 20% of the $116,000 is returned
to the Parish!
The Sisters of Mercy...will be selling chances in the Church on
the weekend of April 25th & 26th. Please see next week’s
bulletin for additional details and please support our dedicated
Sisters!
Our hearing impaired system...is working very well and those
who have used it couldn’t be happier. Ask the Ushers for assistance when you enter the Church.
