Seventh Sunday of Easter (Ascension of the Lord)
Fr. Mark’s Remarks
This weekend, we continue the
Easter story with the celebration of
the feast of the Ascension. Next
weekend, we will conclude the Easter
season with the celebration of the
feast of Pentecost. Many parishes
have people wear red, the liturgical color of the day,
and this is a great way to symbolize that we are the
Body of Christ and celebrate our birthday as the Church.
In two weeks, all of the area high schools will hold their
graduations. On Sunday, May 31, we will bless the
graduating high school seniors of our parish at the
9:00am Mass at St. Thomas Aquinas and the 10:00am
Mass at St. John Church & Student Center. Seniors,
please wear your caps and gowns as we help to mark this
happy occasion and we offer you our congratulations and
ask for God’s blessings as you embark on new endeavors.
Sister Dorothy has been
working on a new book and it
has recently been published.
“Whispers from the Spirit:
Michigan State University
Students Listening to Their Inner
Voice” is a collection of stories
from MSU students that will
give you hope for the future. The book has a forward
by Dr. Lou Anna Simon, some favorite wisdom from
MSU coaches and faculty, and five mission statements
from students. Since the students were brave enough
to share their stories of how the Spirit worked in their
lives, I decided to tell a story of my own in the book.
The back cover quotes an MSU professor saying,
“Although I have been a faculty member of this secular
state university for over fifty years, I have never had
occasion to consider my students as spiritual beings. After
reading the manuscript of Sr. Dorothy’s book, I now do.
And the remarkable character of the spirituality they
manifest simply amazes.” The book is available in the
parish office at both sites and around town in stores.
Have a blessed week!

a wonderful sharing over coffee and donuts! All are

Do You Know Someone Graduating?
Campus Ministry recommends "The Freshman
Survival Guide: Soulful Advice for Studying, Socializing and
Everything in Between". This book is filled with great
advice for making the transition from high school to
college life and written in a very engaging manner.
Some topics include:
 Living with a Weirdo and Other
Roommate Issues
 The Care and Feeding of a College
Professor
 Studying and Time Management
 "Growing Up" Your Religion
 Am I safe? Don't Be Paranoid,
Just Be Smart!
We liked this book so much, we purchased them in
bulk to offer parishioners at below list price! The
books are available in both parish offices for $8. This
book really would make a great graduation gift to a
high schooler! Pick up a copy today!

CANCER SUPPORT &
ENCOURAGEMENT MINISTRY
The May 3 charity, Manna Community Meal will
receive $1,965 for the soup kitchen in Detroit to
provide free, hot meals to desperately vulnerable
people in the inner city. Manna serves 150-250
people five days a week.
Do you have cancer or do you know of
someone in the Parish who has cancer?
Are you going through chemo, radiation,
or surgery, or know someone in the
Parish who is? WE WANT TO HELP! We want to
help you to fight and beat cancer!
May 17: Volunteers of America, Lansing,
provides shelter, food, and other vital services for
homeless people in our community, including
homeless military veterans. An on-site medical clinic
was recently added to the VOA’s services, providing
desperately needed, immediate, and ongoing medical
care for the most vulnerable and fragile of our
brothers and sisters.
Our Parish cancer ministry team wants to help by
sending you a St. Peregrine (patron saint of cancer
patients) care package, and encouraging cards and
letters. St. Peregrine is the patron saint of cancer
victims because a cancerous growth on his own leg
was miraculously cured.
May 24: Save The Children
Refugees who have fled their homes in Syria are
suffering extreme difficulties. Refugees and the poor
families in camps face critical needs ranging from food
and water shortages to children unable to continue
their education. Save the Children works with
partners in Syria to also help infants who are at risk
for malnutrition and diarrheal disease.
Please email [email protected] and include
the following information: Name, age, gender, mailing
address, and email address. Optional information you
can include: phone number, type of cancer and
treatment. If you do not have a computer, you may
call the Parish office to provide this information.
Thank you for your generosity!

Guest Author: John Mira, Senior
You often hear, college will be the "best
years of your life," and society can
successfully pressure us into fully believing that
statement. Don’t get me wrong, your college years
can be an exciting and unforgettable experience
unlike any other. The illusion that these are “the best
years” though, gives students the mindset to “make
the most” of my college years which can lead to
countless poor decisions on and off campus.
Parishioners, if you share a career or experience
in common with any of our ESTEEM students,
please consider being a mentor.
These students are faithful and while they expect to
have careers and families, they also know that they
will be active in the church. The mentoring time
commitment is low: attend 2-3 meetings with the
entire group during the academic year, and meet a
couple times a semester one-on-one with your
student for coffee and a chat. But, the impact that
you can have is tremendous!
Coming to St. John opened my eyes to see that these
years are not the best years of our lives, but they are
the most transformative. St. John has shown me that
these years haven’t just been preparing me for a
career, but preparing me for rest of my life.
Now, when I say St. John, I do not mean
a building with four walls. It has truly
been the people, the community, this
living church at St. John that has radically
changed my life forever. Through the
people here at St. John, I have truly
encountered Jesus Christ in my life and have obtained
a joy that can never be taken away in knowing Him.
I’ve learned that during these influential years of our
lives we must seek out what is true, good, and
beautiful.
We try to match students and parish mentors as
closely as possible given the academic majors and
career interests of the students. Please contact Al
Weilbaecher ([email protected]) if you are
interested in being a mentor or have questions.
Please meet three ESTEEM students:
Rachel is a Genomics & Molecular Genetics major
who hopes to become a pediatric genetic councilor.
She has been involved in every conceivable aspect of
campus ministry- retreats, ASB's, and volunteering in
a Lansing soup kitchen.
My challenge to younger students:
 Discover the truth that you are loved
unconditionally and eternally by a Father that sees
your dignity and worth as infinitely important.
 Seek out good friends who will encourage and
challenge you to become the real you.
 Find friends that you can stay up all night with
being silly, laughing about things that don’t matter
or talking about things that deeply matter.
 Find the beauty and joy in this life that comes
from knowing Jesus.
Anthony is an Electrical Engineering major with an
interest in music and circuit design. He hopes to
work for an audio company to integrate his passion
for music into his career. Anthony has been very
involved in retreats, ASB's and has served as a cantor
at Mass.
In all these things, you will begin to embark on the
greatest adventure of your life. An adventure that will
last not just last for 4 years, but one that will last a
lifetime.

Taylor is a Social Relations and Policy major who
hopes to attend law school and pursue a career
focusing on elder law and legal aid. She was a
"Catholic School kid" who has enjoyed attending an
ASB trip through SJSC.

“Come Follow Me”
DVD Series: Cistercians
Monday, June 1, 7:00 pm
Baraga Room at STA
Jesus is always seeking us and
through the centuries, people
have responded to Him in many
different ways. In this DVD series, Albert Haase,
OFM, scholar of Christian spirituality, highlights six of
the most vital spiritual traditions in the history of the
Church: Benedictines, Cistercians, Carmelites,
Dominicans, Franciscans, and Jesuits.
Our next session is on Monday evening, June 1,
when we will study and discuss the Cistercians.
Questions? . . . contact Al at 351-5460 or
[email protected]. ALL ARE INVITED!
TALKING WITH PEOPLE WITH DEMENTIA
A discussion about talking with people with dementia
will be held Thursday, May 21, 7:00-8:30pm at the
Catholic Community of St Jude, 801 N. Bridge St,
DeWitt. This talk is for families with someone with
dementia, kids over the age of 8 who may have a
grandparent with the disease, and anyone who wants
to learn about the disease and best ways to
communicate. Please register by contacting Terry
Humenik at [email protected] or
517-669-8335, ext. 18.
Faculty/Community Book Discussion Group
Our reading group will conclude meeting this
academic year on Thursday, May 21. We will be
discussing the remainder of the book, Just Love, by
Margaret Farley, RSM. We meet from 5:30-7:00pm
in Room 12 (Library) at St. John.
All Are Welcome!
Calling all Parish
Book Worms
Looking for a way to
support campus ministry
during the summer
months? Our campus
ministry program
sponsors spiritual book clubs for students during the
academic year. We are in need to three sets of books
for use next fall:
Bible Basics for Catholics
by John Bergsma
How the Catholic Church Built Western
Civilization
by Thomas E Woods
The Jesuit Guide to (Almost) Everything:
A Spirituality for Real Life
by James Martin, SJ
We could use about 15 copies of each book. We
invite YOU to pick a title, purchase it and read it over
the summer.
In late August, you can write a little note- well wishes,
a prayer, or advice to the college student- in the
binding, and donate the book to our program. That
way, you get to enjoy the spiritual reading, and our
students get to grow in gratitude for the parishioners
who support their book clubs!
Please email Katie Diller, [email protected]
if you can help with this project. She keeps a count
so that we know how many of each book will be
coming in!

SUPPORT OUR TEENS
From June 19-21, ten teens from our
parish will be attending the
Steubenville Youth Conference at
Franciscan University in Ohio. This
weekend will be filled with powerful
speakers, uplifting music,
entertainment, prayer and celebration, bringing our
teens to a powerful encounter with Christ, and
strengthening them to live in His love while living in a
highly secularized world.
CALLED.
We do not want financial concerns to preclude any
teen from being able to attend, so we are seeking
funding to make sure every student gets to go to the
conference. What a gift! - to provide a young
person with the opportunity to draw closer to
Christ. Your generosity will make a lasting impact on
the life of another person.
If you would like to make it possible for a teen to
attend the conference, the cost per participant is
$300, but every little donation will be greatly
appreciated. For a $50 gift, a student will keep a
journal for you, enabling you too, in a small way, to
share this experience with them. Checks can be
taken to the parish office or mailed to Annie
Kitching: 955 Alton Road, East Lansing, MI 48823
COULD BEING A
FOSTER PARENT
BE RIGHT FOR YOU?
Foster children need
caring adults who can
provide a safe and nurturing home. The primary goal
during foster care is to reunite the child with his or
her parents. This can take some time - caring adults
are needed who are willing to provide stability and
safety for children in their care.
Foster parents should be committed individuals who are:
Willing to work with the child's birth parents.
Supportive of efforts to return the child
home.
 Able to work with children who have
emotional and behavioral needs.
 Able to encourage teens toward independent
living.
 Willing to provide a permanent home if
necessary.


SMALL THINGS
Make a visit, and what do you see? It can be a
very sweet time when parent and child visit the
church together for a few moments of silence or a
prayer. Teach your child the joy of "making a visit"
to Jesus in the Tabernacle. Plan to start slow; don't
stay too long. Encourage your child to use his or her
senses to become more present in the moment. On
a warm day, appreciate how cool it is in the church.
Perhaps there is a lingering smell of incense? Does
the light fall in colors from the stained glass
window? Listen to the silence.
Look at the Tabernacle, itself. An artist created it in
such a way as to help us think about the One who is
there. Recently in visits to the Tabernacle at STA
with our first communicants, we were all amazed and
delighted in all that the children saw. Look at the
Tabernacle - what do you see? Below, read about
everything the children noticed.
In the mosaic background, we
see an image of all of the many
souls who together make up
the Church. How many crosses
do you see? The children found
three distinct ones. Do you see
a sun - reflecting Jesus, Light of
the World? Or, is it a Host?
There is a Chi Rho. Do you
know what that signifies? Jesus! Yes - the Chi Rho is
formed by superimposing the first two letters (ΧΡ) of
the Greek word for Christ. Why is blue used for the
mosaic and the central cross? Perhaps to invoke the
waters of Baptism, through which we become
members of the Church and saved by the sacrifice of
Christ. Do you see a "2"? That reminds us of the
two natures of Jesus - God and man. Children also
thought the lock and key significant - the locked
Tabernacle reminds us how precious Jesus is. Do
you see anything that we didn't catch?
Lutheran Social Services of Michigan is looking
for a foster family and potential adoptive home for
unaccompanied Ethiopian siblings. The family fled their
home country following harassment by Ethiopian
security forces, including the destruction of the family
business, all family property, and arrest of their father.
The children fled to Kenya with their mother, who
went missing at the border. The 6 children (ages 5 to
16) are living with a stranger, while the oldest works
to provide for the family. They have no schooling or
permanent housing, and the youngest children are
often left without a guardian. Contact LSSM at
6 313-823-7700 for information.
RCIA Update
STA School News
Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults
Important Dates to remember:
This past Sunday the catechumens,
candidates, and their sponsors gathered
to consider the topic, "Love, the Soul of
the Apostolate". Jesus intended his Church to go out
to the entire world, not stay closed in on itself. Each
baptized believer is called to spread the message of
salvation, especially by the love they show to others
in their daily lives.
Each Christian lives out his or her vocation in a
particular set of circumstances which form an endless
series of opportunities to be the presence of Christ.
Also, Christians have always served the needs of the
poor and vulnerable and in this way given a witness to
the faith which animates their good works.

and guidance. If interested, please contact the school
office.
If you have any questions about the Rite of Christian
Initiation of Adults or would like to discuss the
possibility of joining the next group of inquirers, call
Pete Ries at 517-351-5460, ext. 1328 or e-mail him at
