26 April 2015 26 квітень 2015 р. SOLEMN HOLY COMMUNION Next Sunday - OUR LORD, OUR PARISH, OUR CHILDREN, OUR FUTURE! THERE IS NO WHERE ELSE WE WANT TO BE! At the Divine Liturgy just prior to the Epiclesis, the Priest raises up the Gifts and exclaims “We offer to You, Yours of Your own, in behalf of all and for all!”. What he is doing is making an offering of a sacrifice on behalf of us all … but also acknowledging that the Sacrifice is really already God’s, because we offer to God the sacrifice that was/is made by Jesus Christ, the Son of God. There is no more beautiful and awesome gift that we can offer to God, but God’s gift to us! Which gift in particular? The gift of Salvation given to each and every one of us by Christ’s death on the cross because of His unfathomable love for each and every one of us. You, especially. So the Eucharistic gifts can be offered to God only because “of All” the things the Lord did for us and we offer them, above all, in thanksgiving “for All” the things that He has done for us. Its all about God and His love toward us. Next Sunday, some of our children will be receiving Holy Communion after having experienced, for the first time, the tremendous loving mercy of God in the Sacrament of Penance (that Mystery that we like to call “Confession”). These children will be setting out on a new Sacramental life with Christ Jesus. Let us all plan to be there to rejoice with them, to be there for them and to renew our own Eucharistic, Sacramental relationship with our Lord. This is one of the greatest “Parish events” that we want to be present for. Other events may be of social significance, but next Sunday we have an event that underscores what we are really all about…. the Grace of God and the salvation of souls….!

Here are a few ideas that you, as a family, can do together as well as a Church family! SUGGESTIONS OF ACTIVITIES Ideas for Families Families should be encouraged to participate in activities during the Week, and to reflect on how the time they spend together will help to foster their Christian faith and values. Check out the calendar of activities for the National Week on your diocese’s website! Families can commit to doing something to enhance their family and spiritual life. Here are some examples: Planning to have 3 meals per week as a family and saying grace at mealtime or praying as a family at the end of the day. Perhaps it is simply creating or continuing little rituals that are unique to the lives of families, such as Friday night movies, pizza nights or volunteering at a local charity. Families may also have practices that celebrate the sacred: Baptismal Days or the Saint of the day. Any of these can serve as anchors in a turbulent world. Parishes could have a commitment book for families to indicate what they are committing to do, to enhance how their family is a school of love. Ideas for Parishes Reflect on how to become more family-friendly. Host a brainstorm on the topic, perhaps over a potluck. Sponsor a family game night or a movie night that brings families together. Have a prayer rotation so that every family gets prayed for by the rest of the Parish. Have a special time for praying the Rosary with special intentions for families incorporated in the prayer. Provide an opportunity for each family to share how they practice their devotions: during bedtime prayer, through Advent or Lent traditions, etc. A group of families from each parish could plan to attend the March for Life which will take place on Thursday, May 14 at 11:30. Please note that it will be preceded by a prayer service at St. Mary’s Cathedral at 10:30 am, which will be presided by Archbishop Richard Gagnon. Please, if you have an idea on how to celebrate National Life & Family week, don’t be shy. Call John Petryshyn, Parish Chair at 204-669-6479.
