Bilot !"#$%&#'!$()*$)+$,-.-/#$0#&1*$ The Sunday following the Solemnity of Easter, the celebration of Jesus Christ Risen from the dead, is the Feast of Divine Mercy. St. Pope John Paul, II instituted the Sunday after Easter as Divine Mercy Sunday. Why? We see the endless mercy of God’s love towards all his people in the Passion, Death and Resurrection of his only begotten Son, Jesus Christ. With the Father giving of his Son, and allowing him to suffer and die for us for the forgiveness of sins -- our sins -we are given the hope and promise of one day being in heaven. When we avail ourselves of the Sacrament of Reconciliation and the Most Holy Eucharist, we are calling upon the Divine Mercy to forgive us, heal us and restore us in God’s love. Divine Mercy is a Christian devotion to the unending merciful love of God toward all people. The devotion to Divine Mercy comes from the apparitions of Jesus (the act of becoming visible) received by St. Faustina Kowalska. St. Faustina lived from 1905-1938 in the country of Poland. At the time, she reported a number of apparitions and conversations with Jesus, which she wrote in her diary. There are three main themes of the devotion: 1) ask for and obtain the mercy of God; 2) trust in Christ’s abundant mercy (yes, the Lord desires to shower us with his mercy, as mercy is a gracious kindness instead of a just harsh treatment); and, 3) show mercy to others by our actions, thus showing God’s mercy through us. As we celebrate the Divine Mercy given to us, may we always be grateful for the Lord’s kindness and pay it forward to others. I suggest you delve more into this devotion by reading St. Faustina’s diary. Fr. John will be explaining and leading the Chaplet of Divine Mercy on Sunday at 3:00 PM in Church. Now, to the temporal needs of the parish. You may have noticed that the area behind the elementary school is closed off (and will be until August). I apologize for this inconvenience; however, the renovation is allowing us to update our facilities. First, the outdoor restrooms are antiquated and not handicapped accessible. The locker room is in need of repair and updating (the school was built in the early 1950’s). So, our plan is to renovate the locker room and construct a new handicapped-accessible public restroom. The great news about this update? The restroom facilities will allow access from inside and outside of the school – depending on the season and event in progress. This will save us a lot of money in not having to renovate two sets of restroom facilities. And, we plan to construct a youth ministry office. The HVAC (heating/cooling) system over the construction area is at the end of its life and needs to be updated. Page 3 Other infrastructure improvements are also necessary in conjunction with the proposed construction of the outdoor athletic complex. Our goal is to re-do the athletic field and track. The track was rebuilt in the 1980’s and needs to be updated. The athletic field is grass, and the desire is to modernize it. A large multi-purpose room will be renovated so that different teams and clubs can use the space. This renovation has been discussed with the Stewardship Commission and Parish Council members, with each of them giving their approval. As of this writing, I was informed that the stained glass windows on the south side of the church should be re-installed in mid- to late April. I am excited to have the stained glass repaired and restored. I certainly will not miss looking at the styrofoam! Finally, I apologize, but I forgot to inform you in my previous bulletin articles that I am on retreat until Tuesday evening. Know that you have been and continue to be in my prayers. In God’s gracious mercy, Fr. Jim Bilot The Lord is risen! As Christ's disciples, we are called to go forth and spread the good news of His Resurrection. Divine Child's many ministries are examples of how many of you answer that call. Our ministries require not only gifts of time and talent, but also of financial help.

John Kopson’s Commentary Divine Mercy Sunday… Jesus I Trust In You! Divine Mercy Sunday: On April 30, 2000, during the celebration of the canonization Mass of St. Faustina Kowalska, our Holy Father Pope John Paul II (who is now Saint John Paul II) spoke these words: "It is important then that we accept the whole message that comes to us from the word of God on this Second Sunday of Easter, which from now on throughout the Church, will be called Divine Mercy Sunday” (www.divinemercysunday.com). “Divine Mercy Sunday” is a beautiful day to think about how much mercy our Lord Jesus Christ has bestowed upon us! In a very specific way, Jesus covers us with His Divine Mercy every time we see Him in the Sacrament of Reconciliation (confession). Throughout the celebration of Holy Mass, we consistently ask Jesus to have mercy on us. This is a great day to thank Jesus for the Divine Mercy He has already given us, and also a great opportunity to ask for even a greater share of His mercy. Divine Mercy Chaplet at 3:00 p.m. today in the Church: Please join us today at 3:00p.m. (which is the hour of Divine Mercy) in the Church for the recitation of the Divine Mercy Chaplet. I will lead the chaplet during the hour of mercy after a short explanation of it. God Bless You, Fr. John DIVINE MERCY CHAPLET TODAY! Sunday, April 12 In the Church at 3:00pm Lead by Fr.

May divine grace help us face our heartaches and sufferings with the faith and love of Christ as we remain hopeful in all the struggles of daily life. May you have the eyes of faith to see grace – especially when it is hidden, Sister Caroline Burnt Toast “When I was about eight or nine, my mom burnt some toast. One night that stood out in my mind is when she had made dinner for us after a very long and rough day at work, she placed a plate of jam and extremely burned toast in front of my dad. Not slightly burnt but completely blackened toast. I was just waiting to see if anyone noticed the burnt toast and say anything. But Dad just ate his toast and asked me if I did my homework and how my day was. I don’t remember what I told him that night, but I do remember hearing my mom apologizing to dad for burning the toast. And I’ll never forget what he said: “Sweetie, I love burned toast.” Later that night, I went to tell my dad good night and ask him if he really liked his toast burned. He put his arm on my shoulder and said, “Your momma put in a very long day at work today and she was very tired. And besides, A burnt toast never hurts anyone but you know what does? Harsh words!” The he continued to say “You know, life is full of imperfect things and imperfect people. I’m not the best at hardly anything, and I forget birthdays and anniversaries just like every other human. What I’ve learned over the years, is that learning to accept each others faults and choosing to celebrate each others differences, is one of the most important keys for creating a healthy, growing, and lasting relationship. Life is too short to wake up with regrets. Love the people who treat you right and have compassion for the ones who don’t.” Page 8 Church of the Divine Child, Dearborn, Michigan PAWS Visits Divine Child Elementary School!
