The Divine Mercy Novena begins here at
ICC on Good Friday, April 3, 2015 at 5
p.m. in the Adoration Chapel. Everyone
is invited and encouraged to attend. We
will continue the Novena every evening
leading up to the Feast of Divine Mercy
on Sunday, April 12.
A Special Promise of Mercy: Our Lord’s promise to
grant complete forgiveness of sins and punishment on
the Feast of Mercy is recorded three times in the Diary
of Saint Faustina, each time in a slightly different way:
I want to grant a complete pardon to the souls that
will go to Confession and receive Holy Communion
on the Feast of My mercy (1109); Whoever approaches the Fountain of Life on this day will be granted
complete forgiveness of sins and punishment (300);
The soul that will go to Confession and receive Holy
Communion will obtain complete forgiveness of sins
and punishment (699).
Extraordinary Graces: Our Lord is emphasizing,
through this promise, the infinite value of Confession
and Communion as miracles of mercy. He wants us to
realize that since the Eucharist is His own Body, Blood,
Soul and Divinity, it is the “Fountain of Life” (300).
The Eucharist is Jesus, Himself, the Living god, longing to pour Himself as Mercy into our hearts. Read

CONSIDERATION OF OUR CHRISTIAN COMMITMENT: PASSION SUNDAY/HOLY WEEK
This Sunday known popularly as Palm Sunday and
“officially,” as Passion Sunday begins the most solemn
time of the Church Year. We will begin this Sunday with
the blessing of palms and as we process into church will
remember Christ’s triumphant entry into Jerusalem.
We will move through Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday
and Thursday with days of preparation. They will be
days of preparation in many ways. The chur ch
environment will be prepared for the Triduum which will
begin later in the week, our Elect and Candidates for Full
Communion will complete their final preparations to be
received into the Church, and we will complete our own
preparations to enter into the Lord’s Triduum.
The Sacred Triduum will begin Holy Thursday in the
evening at seven o’clock with the Liturgy of the Lord’s
Supper. We will celebr ate the Euchar ist of the Lor d’s
Supper, which will also include the washing of feet of
representatives of the parish. We plan to have representation
from our newly Confirmed, representation from our RCIA
Elect and Candidates, representatives of our Elderly, our
Sick, a couple planning on marriage in the near future, a
representative from the mission in Livingston, and representatives of our youth. At the end of the Eucharist, we will
process with the left over Communion to the place of repose
where the Communion to be distributed at the solemn
services Good Friday will be placed for private prayer and
adoration until 10:00 at night.
The Sacred Triduum will continue on Good Friday, with
the Solemn Liturgy of the Lord’s Passion at 3 p.m..
Parishioners arriving for this service will find the church
stripped bare. At this service we will proclaim the Passion
of the Lord, have Adoration of the Cross, the Solemn
Prayers, joining in prayer for each other and the world as
Our Lord prayed from his cross. The service will conclude
with Communion which has been consecrated the evening
before. Stations of the Cross will also be prayed in the
evening, as a type of Evening Prayer.
The Easter Triduum continues Holy Saturday evening at
eight o’clock. Par ishioner s ar r iving will find the chur ch
in darkness, with the new fire lit outside in the drop off. The
service begins outside with the Blessing of the new fire and
the Easter Candle. As the ministers and RCIA Elect and
Candidates process into the church, the candles of the
congregation will be lit from the Easter Candle. The only
ones who will not have candles will be the Elect who will
have their candles lit later in the ceremony when they are
baptized. When all are in the church with lit candles, the
Easter Proclamation will be sung and we will read from the
Scriptures of the major events which bring us to this
evening. Finally, the Alleluia will be sung and the lights
turned on and the beautifully decorated church will be a
worthy place for the Easter Gospel to be proclaimed. After
the homily, we will baptize our Elect and then confirm them
and the Candidates for Full Communion. Then we continue
in celebration of the Easter Eucharist. There will be a
reception following the Easter Vigil in the parish hall to
share fellowship with our newly received parishioners.
The Sacred Triduum will continue Easter Sunday with
the celebration of the Eucharist Sunday morning at seven
and nine o’clock here, at nine o’clock in the mission chapel
and at eleven-thirty here. Please note that the usual 11:00
Eucharist has been moved to 11:30 to allow the cr owed
parking lots from 9:00 to empty for the 11:30 crowd. We
realize we have many visitors on Easter Sunday and try our
best to accommodate them all.
The Sacred Triduum comes to its conclusion with
Evening Prayer in the Adoration Chapel at six o’clock in
the evening. There will be no Evening Eucharist on
Easter Sunday. Following Evening Pr ayer Per petual
Adoration will resume.
I think it is important to call to our attention the idea of
sacred silence. The church fathers such as St. Augustine,
St. Ambrose and other early Christian writers speak of the
Triduum as a time when the whole world quietly mourns the
death of the Savior and awaits the Resurrection. Because of
this reason, once the Triduum begins Holy Thursday evening
no other services are scheduled in the main church other
than Stations of the Cross on Good Friday. The other
Sacraments such as Communion to the Sick, Reconciliation,
and Anointing of the Sick are usually only celebrated during
the Triduum in emergencies – if a person is near death.
Of course, the rest of the world is not necessarily silent and
reflective. Some may be preparing to welcome family and
friends for Easter, others may have to go to work, and a lot
of things are getting done.
I think the main thing is that we try, in the midst of our
activity, to stay somewhat recollected and remember in
prayer, when we may have a quiet moment to ourselves,
those who are on the Triduum Journey with us, especially
our Elect and Candidates for Full Communion. If you can, it
would be nice to get cards for those whose names you
received to pray for the beginning of Lent. It has been a
good journey and I feel blessed for having made it with you.
Love,

"Come, my soul, redouble thy fervor; thou art alone
adoring thy God. His eyes rest upon thee alone. This
good Saviour is so full of love for us that He seeks us out
everywhere. Ah! If we had the eyes of angels with which
to see Our Lord Jesus Christ, who is here present on this
altar, and who is looking at us, how we should love Him!
We should never more wish to part from Him. We
should wish to remain always at His feet; it would be a
foretaste of Heaven; all else would become insipid to us.
But see, it is faith we want. We are poor blind people;
we have a mist before our eyes.”
—St. John Vianney
