The Mission of our parish is to serve our neighbors with Jesus, to pray in faith with Jesus, and to teach as His Church with Jesus, so “that all may have more abundant life.” (John 10:10). The Word of God, the Sacraments, and the Catechism of the Catholic Church are the instruments and standards of this work of evangelization and faith formation.

At every Sunday Mass, Catholics confess that Jesus came down from heaven “for us men and for our salvation.” But what does “salvation” mean? In this remarkable 10-part video series, Scripture scholar and theologian Michael Patrick Barber provides a thorough, deeply Catholic, and deeply biblical, answer. Based on the best-selling book Salvation: What Every Catholic Should Know this video series is inspiring, engaging, and accessible.

EVERYDAY STEWARDSHIP - RECOGNIZE GOD IN YOUR ORDINARY MOMENTS Recognizing the Voice of Jesus When my wireless provider introduced HD Voice, the voice I heard on my phone was unbelievably clear, and it felt at times like both the caller and I were in the same room. The best aspect of this feature is that it didn’t cost the customer any additional fees, and it didn’t require any changes to the phone. I could say it was free, but I suspect I was already paying for it in my monthly bill anyway. At least it felt free. The clearer the voice calling you, the easier it is to recognize who it is on the other end of the line. In John ’s Gospel, Jesus speaks of the gatekeeper who opens the gate and calls for his sheep. They respond because they know his voice. Others try to lure the sheep when the gatekeeper is not there, but the sheep find their voices unclear or unfamiliar. Jesus is our gatekeeper. But unlike receiving something for free from a wireless company, to be able to hear his voice we need to pay attention and practice listening. By developing a stewardship way of life that is mindful and prayerful, we become attuned to his voice and are able to discern when the call is from our Lord and when it is from an imposter. It is great to talk about all the things we can do and all the gifts we can share, but if we are not listening for his call to hear where our offerings are needed, we can end up like a lost sheep searching for the gatekeeper. —Tracy Earl Welliver, MTS

Un Mensaje de Monsenor Ogle

Aunque encuentro gran consuelo en que nos hemos mantenido unidos y fuertes en estas últimas semanas, me entristece el saber que no vamos a poder congregarnos para celebrar este tiempo glorioso.
Recuerde, que somos UNO en Cristo, y aún en medio de esta situación peligrosa; nuestra fe y confianza en el Señor nos mantiene unidos.
Tengan fe; no miedo. A medida que la primavera pasa y comienza el verano, volveremos a estar juntos para celebrar Su gloria. Únase a mí esta semana mientras nos regocijamos en la resurrección de nuestro Señor Jesucristo.

A message from Monsignor Ogle
I am saddened that we will not congregate
together to celebrate this glorious time but
find great solace in knowing we have
grown more united and resilient over the
past weeks.
Remember that we are ONE in Christ, and
that unity cannot be endangered by the
present situation as long as we hold true to
our faith and trust in God.
Have faith, not fear. As spring abounds and
summer begins, we will once again be
together to celebrate His glory. Join me this
week as we rejoice in the resurrection of
our Lord Jesus Christ
