Our Sunday Best Dear Family,
The question arises every summer how we should dress for
Mass. Instead of first approaching that question from a moral or
fashion standpoint, I want to approach it a little differently.
All of us are called to participate in Mass each Sunday and
Holy Day of Obligation. Like I have in my life, many people can
view going to Mass as simply an obligation that the Ten
Commandments require. It is true that Sunday Mass is an obligation
under pain of mortal sin if we can go but choose not to for a non-
serious reason. After all, what is more important that going to Mass
and worshipping God?
Mass is not so much an obligation but rather it is a
relationship. Mass is what those who die in the peace of Christ will
experience for all eternity. Mass is a marital experience of bride (the
Church, that’s us) and the Bridegroom (God). In other words, Mass
is a total self-giving of God to us in the Word and the Eucharist and
a reciprocating gift of ourselves to God. In this relationship He has
given us His everything. In this relationship we give Him our
everything…we hold nothing back! And in giving Him our
everything, we give Him our very best…our preparation, our
participation, and our adoration.
The Mass, in short, is and should be experienced as an event
that is altogether different from anything that is earthly. It is
something that is infinitely above and beyond anything that earth has
to offer. The Mass is heaven on earth. When we go to Mass, we
literally go to heaven!!!
The Mass is not about getting so much as it is about giving.
Therefore, does it not make sense that we should give Him our very
best in everything…our preparation, our participation, our adoration
and, yes, how we dress for Mass. Ought we not dress in our very
best so as show our Lord and our God the proper and due respect
that is His? Should we not dress in a way that draws attention to the
whole person God made us and not to our various parts?
These are some principals to consider when you and I dress
for Mass. Where are we going…to a casual event or to heaven?
What are we doing there…fulfilling an obligation or giving of
ourselves in a relationship? Next Sunday, let’s consider these things
and give to God what is God’s, our respectful very best in every
aspect of our lives.
God bless and Mary keep you,
Fr. Michaud

The 2nd collection today is for the MILK PROJECT to provide milk for the Casa Hogan Orphanage in Lurin, Peru. This
milk project started 34 years ago to help feed Peru orphans and is
able to continue because of Wisconsin milk. Your donation helps
buy and ship the 50 lb. of bags of milk which cost $85.00. Each
week one sack of milk provides milk for 64 orphans. That is not
a lot of milk per child. By giving your support you are not only
supporting the orphanage but also promoting the use of Wisconsin
milk. The diocese’s goal for its’ next shipment is 400 bags.
LET’S SEE HOW MANY BAGS OF MILK WE CAN FILL.
The Pastoral Council has founded
a new group called:
“St. Mary’s I.C.
Salvation Army Servers"
We will be preparing and serving
dinner for people in need at The
Salvation Army on the first
Monday of every month starting
June 4th. We need groups of 3-4
people to volunteer to take a turn.
Please consider donating your
time for the wonderful cause. For
more information please contact
Gina Kempf at 920-540-7804
