We need your help! We are seeking donations for our silent auction and our dessert auction for our fundraiser dinner on May 18. Silent auction items could include gift cards, gift certificates, themed gift baskets, etc. Dessert items should be non-refrigerated. If you have questions, contact Martha or Francie in the Youth Ministry office at 434-7708. To attend the dinner, you may purchase tickets after Masses or in the office. Thank you for your support! A week-long retreat could be given on today’s Gospel passage because so much is contained within it. Perhaps, we could each take that on this week: Pray with a different verse from today’s Gospel every day this week and enter into deep, daily encounters with Jesus. Monday: “That night they caught nothing.” We can’t do anything in the dark. If we’re in spiritual darkness — not praying, not repentant, not going to Mass — we will catch nothing. We need to be in the light of Christ. Tuesday: “Cast the net over the right side of the boat.” In prayer, don’t give up so easily. Don’t leave and move on to the next thing. Stay where you are and keep fishing. Wednesday: “He tucked in his garment, for he was lightly clad, and jumped into the sea.” To encounter Christ, be lightly clad. Don’t overwhelm your life with a ton of things God isn’t actually asking you to do. What natural gifts has He given you? What are you passionate about? Let go of everything else and jump into the sea. Dive in, head first. Thursday: “Simon Peter went over and dragged the net ashore full of one hundred fifty-three large fish.” Some scholars believe this represents the 153 known nations of the world at the time John wrote the Gospel. The Good News and the Church — led by Peter and his successors — are meant for everyone. Who in your life needs to encounter God’s love and mercy? Friday: “When they climbed out on shore, they saw a charcoal fire.” There’s only one other time a charcoal fire is mentioned in the Gospel of John: Peter’s denial of Jesus. Christ undoes past fires of sin with the fire of repentance and forgiveness. Saturday: “Someone else will dress you and lead you where you do not want to go.” Our lives are not our own. They are a gift from God, a gift that is meant to be given to someone else.
VOCATIONS CORNER
Pope Francis is urging Catholics to pray that the Lord may help us discover His plan of love for our lives and grant us the courage to walk in the path He has chosen for each of us. He made the call in his message for this year’s World Day of Prayer for Vocations that will be observed on the 4th Sunday of Easter, Good Shepherd
Sunday, May 12. The Vatican on Saturday released the message that has as its theme, “The Courage to take a risk for God’s Promise”. Promise and risk
The message is a reflection on “how the Lord’s call makes us bearers of a promise and, at the same time, asks of us the courage to take a risk, with him and for him”. Just as Simon, Andrew, James and John had a mixed fortune in their catch of fish, the Pope said, “much of life is like that”. Sometimes we enjoy a good catch, sometimes we need the courage to keep our boat from being tossed by the waves and at times we are frustrated with empty nets. It is at this moment that Jesus approaches the fishermen, breaks through the “paralysis of routine” and promises to make them fishers of men. We too were surprised by the promise of a joy that is capable of bringing fulfillment to our lives, when we met the person to marry or when we first felt the attraction for consecrated life. Lord’s call, not an intrusion
Rather than an intrusion in our freedom, a “cage” or a burden, the Pope said, the Lord’s call is a loving initiative whereby God encounters us and invites us to be part of a great undertaking. He opens before our eyes the horizon of a greater sea and an abundant catch. However, embracing the Lord’s promise, the Pope said, demands the courage to risk making a decision, of putting ourselves on the line and facing a great challenge. Leaving behind the security of our little boat that prevents us from making a definitive choice, he said, we are called to be bold and decisive in seeking God’s plan for our lives, trusting in the Lord’s promise. Call to Christian life
This, the Pope said, is part of the call to Christian life that we all have received in baptism. It is born and develops through the liturgy, God’s grace, the sacraments, God’s word, prayer and fraternal sharing. The Christian life thus finds expression in our decisions that give a precise direction to our personal journey and also contribute to the growth of God’s kingdom in our world. These vocations make us bearers of a promise of goodness, love and justice, not only for ourselves but also for our societies and cultures, which need courageous Christians and authentic witnesses of the kingdom of God. Do not be deaf to God's call
Speaking about the call to consecrated life and priesthood, the Pope said it can excite as well as frighten us. Our decision to risk leaving behind everything to follow the Lord can meet much resistance in today’s highly secularized contexts. The Holy Father thus urged young people not to be deaf to the Lord’s call, saying there can be no greater joy than to risk one’s life for the Lord. The Pope acknowledged it is not always easy to discern our vocation and to steer our life in the right direction. Hence the whole Church - priests, religious, pastoral workers and educators – needs to provide young people with opportunities for listening and discernment. Youth ministry and promotion of vocations along with prayer, meditation on God’s Word, Eucharistic adoration and spiritual accompaniment, the Pope said, help in discovering God’s plan. In conclusion, Pope Francis offered young people the model of Mary, whose vocation, he said, was both a promise and a risk. Her mission was not easy, yet through her ‘yes’ she did not allow fear to prevail.
