F
or some, Easter has come and gone, but for Catholic Christians
Easter continues for the fifty days between Easter Sunday and the
Feast of Pentecost. Our Easter season is a longer celebration than
the forty days of Lent! This weekend the readings stress the importance of believing that Jesus rose from the dead. It is through our faith in the Resurrection
that we find unity in the success of our struggles in life and the peace of mind
from knowing that we too share in Christ’s victory over death.
The first reading during the Easter Season is taken from Acts of the Apostles, a
companion book to the Gospel of Luke. Acts records the activities of the early
Christian community following the Ascension of Jesus. In today’s reading, Luke
reports on early Christians in Jerusalem living in unity with one another. United
in mind and heart, they shared their possessions so that no one went without.
Then in the Gospel, we hear the first words of Jesus spoken to the disciples
gathered behind locked doors: “Peace be with you!” Then the resurrected Jesus
sends the gift of the Holy Spirit upon the disciples. It is the gift of the Holy Spirit
which animates the disciples to proclaim and live their faith in Christ. When the
doubting Thomas encounters the Lord, he also believes, and professes: “My Lord
and my God.” In times of doubt and discouragement in life, it is this resurrected
Christ who is our source of hope and courage.
Holy Week and Easter: Many thanks to the countless number of people who
worked in unison to make our Holy Week and Easter services wonderful experiences of worship. Readers, sacristans, ministers of hospitality, ministers of the
Eucharist, servers, musicians, cantors, choir members, decorators, and so many
others worked diligently behind the scenes with a variety of parish staff members to celebrate these sacred days. Good liturgy does not just “happen;” it is
well planned and practiced. A special thanks to all!
Sacrament of Confirmation: Please join us on Thursday, April 16th, at 6:30 p.m.
for the celebration of Confirmation with Archbishop Michael Jackels. We have
88 candidates for confirmation this year. It is always good to have a full church
with a variety of age groups for this special Mass. Light refreshments will be
served in the social space after the Mass.
Youth Minister and Confirmation Coordinator: We have extended a contract
to Lugene Berning for the coming year. Lugene is a longtime member of Resurrection, and she is eager undertake this new responsibility. Lugene has started
to work with Angela Thomas and we look forward to welcoming her full time in
July. Lugene and her husband Keith are the parents of five children: Luke, Sam,
Jacob, Zach and Tessa.
May God bless you and your families during this Easter Season!
Father Joe Hauer, Pastor

April 12, 2015 ■ Second Sunday of Easter
IN THE PARISH
Young Adults!
Resurrection Young Adult Ministry is sponsoring an afternoon of Dodgeball on Sunday, April 12th, from 2-4 pm in
the Resurrection School Gym. All Young Adults (19-39) are
encouraged to come out and play. This event is free.
Please enter Door #2 at the School.
Parish Directory
A big thank you to all who participated in the 2015 Parish
Photo Directory. A reminder that all submittals are due in
the office no later than April 17th. If anyone does not
want their address or phone number listed in the book
please call the Parish Office (556-7511) and speak to
Patrick.
Bereavement
Our health ministry team will be offering a Bereavement
series for anyone who has had a loved one die. These
sessions are most supportive, because of the information
you receive about grieving, but also, it is very helpful to
realize that others are experiencing what you are going
through. The six sessions will be held on Tuesday evenings
from 6:00-7:00 in the Upper Room, beginning April 28th.
Please call the Parish Office to register so that materials
can be prepared for you. Call Ellen if you have questions.
556-7511.
Are you a Divorced Catholic
Considering an Annulment?
On Tuesday evening, April 14, at 7:30 pm in the Upper
Room, Fr. Hauer will host an information evening for those
considering an annulment following a divorce. Come
deepen your understanding of the church’s teaching on
marriage and divorce, see the spiritual and emotional
benefits of the process and identify what you need to do
to get started.
OKOLONA MISSISSIPPI
Parish Summer Service trip to OKOLONA, Mississippi. Join
a group of fellow parishioners from Resurrection who will
experience the African American culture while working
with children in a summer enrichment program, working in
a second-hand clothing store, visiting the elderly, or helping with light maintenance work. The service trip to
Okolona will be from June 20-27, 2015. Please email or
call Ellen Patch if you are interested in making this very
worthwhile trip. [email protected] or 556-7511.
STEWARDSHIP
The Christian community described in Acts understood and
practiced total stewardship. St. Paul reports that the
believers did not claim anything as their own,
but held everything in common, and distributed
to each whatever was needed.
Lord, teach me to be generous. Teach me to serve you as you deserve.
Teach me to give and not to count the cost, to fight and not to heed the
wounds, to toil and not to seek for rest, to labor and not to seek reward, save that of knowing that I do Your will. St. Ignatius of Loyola

STEWARDSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
Interested in a fabulous service opportunity?
Our partner parish, St. Ignatius, on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota needs our help. You are invited to join
us from May 30-June 4. We will be working on church
grounds and continuing to foster our spiritual relationship
with St. Ignatius parishioners. Adults and mature high school
students are welcome! Please contact Craig Schaefer at
[email protected] or 563-599-4999 for details.
Partner parish
Next weekend, April 19, we will celebrate our Partner Parish relationship. We ask you to remember our Lakota brothers and sisters on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in prayer. Members of our parish will be at each entrance as you
leave Mass to receive donations to support our partner parish. Please be generous.
GREEN TEAM
EARTH DAY ACTION: Keep polluted water out of local
streams! The five forks of Catfish Creek (CC) are currently
on the EPA’s threatened waters for E.coli, and pollution controls in the CC Watershed are not sufficient to maintain water quality standards. Here are things to do to improve our
local waterways.
• Use fertilizers/lawn chemicals sparingly and sweep extra
fertilizer from your driveway.
• Pick up after pets: pet waste contains bacteria that pollutes water
• Take your car to a car wash. For home-washing, do it on
your lawn to keep soapy water from leaving your property.
• Promptly clean up spills of oil/antifreeze to prevent these
toxins from washing into the street/storm drain.

HEALTH MINISTRY

We will have our next senior social on Monday, April
20th, from 11:30-1:30 in the Church Social Space. Kathy

the lunch is $5.00. We will play cards and socialize after
lunch. Please call the Parish Office to register or sign up
on the bulletin board in the church entrance by April 17th
to let us know you are coming.
Information on Alzheimer’s
On Tuesday, April 14th, 3-4 pm at Resurrection in the
Church Social Space, the Alzheimer's Association will present “Effective Communication Strategies for Dementia
Caregivers.” Learn to decode the verbal and behavioral
messages delivered by someone with dementia, and identify strategies to help connect and communicate at each
stage of the disease. If you have questions, call Mary @
556-7511.

CATHOLIC LISTENING
24 hours every day!
MUSIC & LITURGY
“Seeing is believing. “ Never was there
a statement that could be more wrong.
Belief and faith are all about trusting
and hoping in something that we can not
prove, or know, or even fathom. This
week’s Gospel of Thomas, the apostle
who could not believe Jesus had risen
from the dead without seeing nail marks
in his hands and touching the wound in
his side, is proclaimed every year on the
Second Sunday of Easter. It is the perfect lesson for all
of us who have not seen, yet want to believe so badly in
the Risen Lord. Questioning your faith or even doubting,
as Thomas did, is part of our spiritual journey. When we
find ourselves in that space, perhaps we can hold on to
the words of today’s Gospel: “Blessed are those who
have not seen, and believe.” I also love the words to
Marty Haugen’s hymn “We Walk By Faith:”
“Help then O Lord, our unbelief, and may our faith
abound; to call on you when you are near, and seek
where you are found.”
FAITH FORMATION
A FAMILY PERSPECTIVE
In today’s Gospel Jesus teaches, “Blessed are those who
have not seen and believe.” Accepting someone as they
are, without demanding they prove themselves or meet
our expectations, creates a rich relationship. Without acceptance, a home is only a house and a family is just a
group of house mates.
MARRIAGE ENRICHMENT
Reminder: Easter lasts for 50 days! (Lent was only 40.) A
lesson that joy will have the last word. Mercy prevails!
How can you and your spouse practice being joyful this
Easter season?

Totus Tuus: Catholic Summer Camp

John Paul II. It signifies our desire to give ourselves totally to
Jesus through Mary, his mother. Participants will be led by a
team of four dynamic college students who are on fire for
their faith. Eucharistic worship, catechesis, evangelization,
sacraments, and fun will light the fire for faith and increase
participants’ desire to deepen their relationship with God.
Students entering grades 1-6 in the 2015-2016 school year
can participate in the day program, Monday - Friday, June
15-19 from 8:30 AM - 2:30 PM. Students will be asked to

VOCATION VIEWS
EVERY VOCATION IS ONE THOUSAND INVITATIONS
Peace be with you. The Lord gives us his Easter peace.
Share that peace with someone who needs it. (Luke 24:35-48)
Please pray for all seminarians of the Archdiocese of
Dubuque, and for those in formation for religious life and
the diaconate.
It is our prayer that more young people will consider God’s call
to Religious Life, and that they will say “yes” for the glory of
God, for the benefit of the Church and, as Pope Francis has
said, to wake up the world to the values preached by Jesus. “O
God, throughout the ages you have called women and men to
pursue lives of perfect charity through the evangelical counsels of
poverty, chastity, and obedience. During this Year of Consecrated
Life, we give you thanks for these courageous witnesses of faith
and models of inspiration. Their pursuit of holy lives teaches us to
make a more perfect offering of ourselves to you. Continue to
enrich your Church by calling forth sons and daughters who, having found the pearl of great price, treasure the Kingdom of Heaven above all things. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who
lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God,
for ever and ever. Amen.” (Official Prayer for the Year of Consecrated Life)

"[Jesus] stood in their midst and said to them, ‘Peace be
with you'.” Luke 24: 35-36
Pope Francis’ Easter message:
We ask you, Lord Jesus, to put an end to all war and every conflict, whether great or small, ancient or recent.
• We pray in a particular way for Syria, beloved Syria,
that all those suffering the effects of the conflict can receive needed humanitarian aid . . . [and] boldly negotiate
the peace long awaited and long overdue!
• Jesus, Lord of glory, we ask you to comfort the victims of
fratricidal acts of violence in Iraq and to sustain the hopes
raised by the resumption of negotiations between Israelis
and Palestinians.
• We beg for an end to the conflicts in the Central African
Republic and a halt to the brutal terrorist attacks in parts
of Nigeria and the acts of violence in South Sudan . . .
• Lord, we pray to you for all the peoples of the earth:
you who have conquered death, grant us your life, grant
us your peace! Urbi et Orbi, 2015
