March 29, 2015
Dear Friends,
On this Passion (Palm)
Sunday, gathered as a
community in Jesus’
love and sacrifice, we
anticipate the great
events of our salvation
and listen again to the story of how we are
saved by God in Christ. We live the dying and
rising of our Redeemer daily in our losses and
pain, our joys and accomplishments. We
unite with the Lord’s passion, a perpetual gift
of God’s endless love, and view all that
happens to us in the shadow and light of that
mystifying core conviction- that in dying and
death we find ultimate life.
As we enter Holy Week, make it your priority
to carve out time to remember and relive all
that has happened from God to offer life now
and beyond this world. Join us Holy Thursday
evening when the worldwide Church
assembles to remember the saving act of
Christ in the enduring gift of the Eucharist.
Keep vigil with Christ on Good Friday, who in
agony completes the will of His Father in
total surrender. On Saturday evening, in the
empty stillness of death and solitude, in
union with all whose tombs are made holy by
their victorious earthly lives, await the
triumphant Redeemer God Hero, who opens
the graves of all believers by his conquest of
sin, death and evil. Awaken Easter Sunday in
joyful and glorious awareness of our life in
God, never the same because of Him who
saves, loves and lives.
Bow your heads as we ask God to bless these
human and saving events that tell the story
of how much he loves us now and forever.
May Easter fill your hearts with joy and
wonder in God and His Son alive!
Gratefully,
Father LoBianco
Come and celebrate the great events of our faith
commemorating the dying and rising of Christ that gives life to
our world, our faith community, and each one of us in our
personal relationship with Jesus, whose love has saved us.
Thursday, Friday, and Saturday
You are invited to come and pray morning prayer from the
Liturgy of the Hours at 9:00 AM each of these days in church.
Holy Thursday, 7:00PM Liturgy
Our children preparing to celebrate the Sacrament of First
Eucharist will participate in the procession that brings the
Blessed Sacrament to the Altar of Repose that concludes our
Liturgy.
Good Friday, 3:00PM Liturgy
You are invited to place flowers you have brought in adoration
at the foot of the Cross of Jesus at the conclusion of the
liturgy. During the liturgy, instructions will be given when to
come forward to place these flowers in adoration.
The annual Good Friday Collection for the Holy Land helps to
support the struggling Christian community in the Holy Land
and to protect Christianity’s holiest places. Please be generous
in your support.
Easter Basket Blessing, 12:00 Noon
Holy Saturday
Your family is invited to bring an offering of canned goods and
other non-perishable nourishing foods to share from your
basket with the community of Saint Eulalia. (Note: Please
place your offerings in the baskets in the church vestibule).
Easter Vigil, 7:00PM Liturgy
You are invited to bring your own candle from home to light at
the service of the word and light during the liturgy (we will
also provide candles). You are also invited to bring a small
container to take home some of the new holy water blessed
during the liturgy.

A Deep, Biblical Look at
Jesus Christ
Priest, Prophet, King
Father Robert Barron
Monday – Wednesday
March 30 – April 1 at 6:30PM
In Priest, Prophet, King, you’ll discover Jesus as the
Anointed One–the ultimate priest, prophet, and king
foreshadowed throughout the Hebrew Scriptures.
Using biblical insights and engaging stories, Father
Barron affirms that we see Jesus most clearly
through the lens of the Old Testament.
Through this deeply biblical program, you will better
understand Jesus, become more familiar with
Scripture, and realize your own priestly, prophetic,
and kingly mission, received when you are baptized
“into Christ.”

Palm Sunday
Reflections from our Holy Father
Pope Francis
We have just listened to the Passion of our Lord. We
might well ask ourselves just one question: Who am I?
Who am I, before my Lord? Who am I, before Jesus who
enters Jerusalem amid the enthusiasm of the crowd? Am
I ready to express my joy, to praise him? Or do I stand
back? Who am I, before the suffering Jesus?
(Homily, Palm Sunday and World Youth Day, April 13,
2014)
Prayer Group
Please place your particular written intentions in the box
near the statue of Our Lady of Guadalupe, located in the
back of the church. The Intercessory Prayer Group will
pray over them during their meeting. The Prayer Group
meets every second and fourth Tuesday of the month at
7:30PM in the Rectory basement. The next meeting is
Tuesday, April 14th.
The meetings are devoted to praise and thanksgiving,
praying, scripture sharing, recitation of the rosary,
teachings, songs, and witnessing to the goodness of our
Lord. All are welcome.
