SECOND COLLECTION
Next Sunday Mandated by the U.S. Bishops Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, Sustaining pastoral work in rural dioceses in the United States is made possible through support of the Catholic Home Missions Appeal. This appeal supports essential pastoral outreach such as evangelization, seminary for-mation, aid to parishes, and lay ministry training. The commitment of the church in rural dioceses across the country Is not without challenge. Many of the parishes in mission dioceses are unable to support their core ministries largely due to long distances, priest short-ages and poverty. I ask that you please support this collection to help build up our Church at home. To learn more about the appeal and those who benefit from it, visit wwwusccb.org/home-missions. Thank you and God bless you. Sincerely yours in Christ Most Reverend Randolph R. Calvo Bishop of Reno
ST TERESA OF CALCUTTA
Between You and God
People are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered. Forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives. Be kind anyway. If you are successful, you will win some
unfaithful friends
and some genuine enemies. Succeed anyway. If you are honest and sincere people may deceive you. Be honest and sincere anyway. What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight. Create anyway. If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous. Be happy anyway. The good you do today, will often be forgotten. Do good anyway. Give the best you have, and it will never be enough. Give your best anyway. In the final analysis, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.
FAREWELL MELODY
AND THE POBANZ FAMILY
Farewell Potluck Melody, Adam, James, Mary, Catherine, Daniella are moving to Utah this spring. Help us say goodbye on Sunday, May 6th, after the 11:30 Mass, with a Potluck in the Social Hall. Melody has been our Elementary Director of Religious Education for many years, President of the MOMS Group, and a member of the Finance Committee. Her four children are all Altar Servers. Adam has been working hard in the background - filling in for absent teachers, building and manning a booth at the Harvest Festival, and wherever help is needed. RSVP to Dorothy Gonzalez for who’s coming and what you will bring: 815-3595 or [email protected].
YOUR ASSISTANCE PLEASE
Donations needed (tax deductible) With many parish events coming soon, we are in need of paper products (plates, bowls, cups), plastic cutlery & disposable table-cloths to help keep our expenses down. If you are able to help, please drop your dona-tions at the parish office.

PARISH SAFETY MINISTRY
Safety is Everybody’s Business Upon the invitation of Fr. Philip and the recommendation of local law enforcement, a small group of parishioners began meeting to help address safety issues facing our beautiful church and parish family. Safety/disaster
issues strike without warning. Being prepared for such unexpected disasters is the objective of the Safety Ministry. Medical emergencies, fire, earthquake, active assailant events and even vehicle safety in the parking lots are just a few of the incidents the Safety Ministry will concentrate on going forward. Ministry members will also make routine surveys of the grounds to identify potential facility related issues that can be mitigated before any identified problem becomes an expensive repair. If you have questions, please contact Roger Pechacek at 951-760-0264 for more information.
Safety Ministry Note The next meeting of the ICSM is scheduled for Monday at 6:30 pm in the hall. The training will include a presentation on Nevada's Good Samaritan Law and a FEMA video entitled "You are the help until help ar-rives." Several "housekeeping" items will be discussed as the Ministry moves forward.
Safety Tip of the Week The beginning of this month has been extremely busy for Immaculate Conception Church. The ICSM thanks everyone who attended Mass or a special event for being safety minded both in the Church and in the parking lot. We do have a couple reminders for those parishioners using the parking lots: à Please remember not to park in the red zones at any time. à Please have a licensed driver in the vehicle when
standing at the yellow marked curbs. There is no parking allowed in the yellow spaces
à When using a handicapped parking space, and you do not have handicapped license plates, please be sure to display your current DMV issued handicapped
à placard in plain sight with nothing on top.

THE SERENITY PRAYER God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot
change, courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time; enjoying one moment at a time;
accepting hardship as the pathway to peace. Taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is,
not as I would have it. Trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender
to His will; that I may be reasonably happy in this life,
and supremely happy with Him forever in the next.
