From Fr. Joe Happy, Joyful & Glorious Easter!!!

The following excerpt was part of my first

Easter bulletin article, three years ago, here at

All Saints Parish. It was part of an Easter homily

found in HOMILIES, Sunday and Weekday

Masses published by FAITH Catholic-Publishing

Communications, Catholic Diocese of Lansing:

[T]he Easter mystery we celebrate today

has not changed for more than 2,000

years. We read the same story about

the same people, with the same out-

come, year after year. Yet we keep

coming back; and next year we shall do

it all over again. The question is: If

Christ’s resurrection from the dead was

such a breakthrough in human history

and in the story of our salvation, why do

we need to celebrate it over and over?

The answer is simple: the story may not

change, the outcome may always be

the same, but it is we who are to change

each time we gather to celebrate the

mystery. Hopefully, each time we do so,

we grow just a little bit more in our ability

to live the mystery and to become the

Easter people we are called to be.

For us, as Christians, Easter is not just a

story we tell once a year. It is a way of

life. [bold emphasis added]

The new life of the Resurrection of Christ that

we celebrate isn’t just from the physical death

Jesus had died three days earlier; it is also the

promise of resurrected life for us. (At the end of

the Nicene Creed we profess: I look forward to

the resurrection of the dead and the life of the

world to come.) Just as Easter should be a way

of life for us, it was Jesus’ way of life too. He

didn’t just die on Good Friday—throughout his

life Jesus was dying to himself for the sake of

those around him, and he brought new life to

all those who allowed him to touch their lives.

When Jesus said: There is no greater love than

this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends

(John 15:13), that doesn’t just mean physical

death. While some might be called to actually

physically die for someone else, as Jesus

certainly did for us, we are all called to die to

ourselves for the good of those we love. That

can seem hard – no, it is hard – but maybe, just

maybe … yeah … I can probably do that for

my spouse, my children, my family, my ______.

But here’s the real test — can you do that for

people you really don’t care much for? For

those you disagree with? For your enemies?

Yes, Jesus died for everyone, and that also

included his enemies! And he told us: Love

your enemies (Matthew 5:44).

From Fr. Joe—Continued (Continued from page 2)

That sounds nice, but what if I just can’t do

that? What if the hurt, or whatever it is that

makes them my enemy, is just too much? For

one thing “love your enemies” doesn’t

necessarily mean to have warm, fuzzy,

pleasant feelings for them. Can you wish what

is best for them? Can you pray for them? To

pray for your persecutors” is also part of

Matthew 5:44. And if/when we don’t always

get it right, or do it right, then ask Jesus for help

and allow him to touch your life, and he will

give you new life.

Yes, as we go through this cyclic celebration

of Easter yet again, keep in mind that Jesus’

resurrection is not only about life after physical

death; it’s also about new life after dying to

ourselves, about how to live, here and now,

again, and again … and, yes, yet again!

I hope you have a Blessed and Holy Easter!

P.S. The Angelus prayer is prayed throughout

most of the year and traditionally at the hours

of 6 AM, 12 noon, and 6 PM, though it can be

prayed any time. Here at All Saints Parish, it is

prayed before the 12 noon weekday Masses,

before Morning and Evening Prayer of the

Liturgy of the Hours, and other times. During

the Easter Season (i.e. from Easter Sunday

through the Feast of Pentecost), the Angelus is

replaced with the Regina Caeli. The Regina

Caeli prayer can be found on printed handouts

near the church entrances, and in the little blue

booklet entitled “The Catholic Devotional”

(on page 41).

Stewardship in Our Readings In the second reading today, St. Paul reminds the Colossians that they

have been raised with Christ, exhorting them to “think about the things

above rather than things of earth.” We, too, have been raised with Christ.

Let us rejoice and be glad!

The Sunday after Easter is Divine Mercy Sunday!

During his homily at the canonization ceremony of St. Faustina

Kowalski on April 30, 2000, the Servant of Good Pope John Paul II

highlighted the message of mercy manifested to that well-loved

Saint in the course of her short life. He declared, moreover, that

the Second Sunday of Easter would hence be known

throughout the Church as “ Divine Mercy Sunday.” As

Providence would have it, just five years later, Pope John Paul II

would pass from this life into the next after praying first Vespers

for Divine Mercy Sunday.” To ensure that the faithful would

observe this day with intense devotion, Pope John Paul II

established that Divine Mercy Sunday be enriched by a plenary

indulgence so that the faithful might receive in great abundance the gift of consolation of

the Holy Spirit. The plenary indulgence is granted under the usual conditions (sacramental

confession, Eucharistic communion and prayer for the intentions of Supreme Pontiff) to the

faithful who, on Divine Mercy Sunday, “ in any church or chapel, in a spirit that is

completely detached from the affection for sin, even a venial sin, take part in the prayers

and devotions held in honor of Divine Mercy, or who, in the presence of the Blessed

Sacrament exposed or reserved in the tabernacle, recite the Our Father and the Creed,

adding a devout prayer to the merciful Lord Jesus (e.g. Merciful Jesus, I trust in you!).” For

all who cannot leave their homes for a just cause or who carry out an activity for the

community which cannot be postponed, the plenary indulgence on Divine Mercy Sunday

may be granted if, totally detesting any sin and with the intention of fulfilling as soon as

possible the three usual conditions, those faithful recite the Our Father and the Creed

before a devout image of Our Merciful Lord Jesus and, in addition, pray a devout

invocation to the Merciful Lord Jesus (e.g. Merciful Jesus, I trust in you.” ). A partial

indulgence was at the same time granted to the faithful who, at least with a contrite heart,

pray to the merciful Lord Jesus a legitimately approved invocation.

Background on Saint Maria Faustina Kowalska Sister Faustina was a young, uneducated, nun in a convent of the Congregation of Sisters

of Our Lady of Mercy in Krakow, Poland during the 1930’s. She came from a very poor

family that struggled on their little farm during the years of World War I. She had only three

years of very simple education, so hers were the humblest tasks in the convent, usually in

the kitchen or garden. However, she received extraordinary revelations or messages from

Our Lord Jesus. Jesus asked Sr. Faustina to record these experiences, which she compiled

in notebooks. These notebooks are known today as the Diary of Saint Maria Faustina

Kowalska and the words contained within are God’s loving message of Divine Mercy.

Though the Divine Mercy message is not new to the teachings of the Church, Sr. Faustina’s

Diary sparked a great movement and a strong and significant focus on the mercy of Christ.

Pope John Paul II canonized Sr. Faustina in 2000 making her the “first saint of the new

millennium.” Speaking of Sr. Faustina and the importance of the message contained in her

Diary, the Pope called her “the great apostle of Divine Mercy in our time.”

Parish Vision All Saints Parish is a spiritual and faith-filled family,

embraced by God’s love. We are centered on the

Holy Eucharist, inspired by the Communion of Saints

and empowered by the Holy Spirit to enliven and

ignite a community bound by love. We are united in

vibrant service under the leadership of the Trinity.

Parish Mission We, the members of All Saints Parish are called as a

sacramental people to grow in our faith and

participate fully in the one Body of Christ, centered in

the Eucharist. We value each other’s gifts and talents

as we serve the needs of our community while living

the truth and love of the Gospel.

Need a Ride to Mass?

Our parish partners

with Thunder Bay

T r a n s p o r t a t i o n

Authority to provide

a ride for those who

are in need.

Those who need a ride will need to call TBTA

(ph: 989-356-4596) two hours before you would

like to be picked up to schedule your ride. If

you wish to have it charged, you must tell TBTA

dispatcher you are charging it to All Saints

Parish (we will not be doing reimbursements as

we would have no proof of a ride).

The parish will cover the ride only to/from

Church for the 4 PM Saturday Mass and the

11 AM Sunday Mass (based on the hours of

operation for TBTA).
