DIVIE MERCY SUDAY
This weekend throughout the
world, the Catholic Church celebrates Divine Mercy Sunday.
This feast was established by St.
John Paul II at the canonization
of Sister Faustina Kowalska.
The message of Jesus’ Divine Mercy was revealed
by Jesus to St. Faustina over a number of years in
1930’s. It then spread rapidly around the world despite many setbacks. Its message is one of simplicity and beauty reminding us of our Savior’s deep
desire that we be united with Him through His Devine Mercy.
Jesus told St. Faustina that this Feast emerged
“from the very depths of My mercy and is confirmed in the vast depths of my tender mercies.” He
also told her that whoever approaches the Fountain
of Life, that means that everyone who receives Holy
Communion without grave sin on this day, will be
granted complete forgiveness of sins and punishment. What beautiful words of contemplation for us
during this Easter season. Jesus’ Divine Mercy is
open to all, especially the most hardened sinners.
He wants us to come back to Him and find refuge,
forgiveness, and peace.
In a world that seems to be spinning out of control more and more each day this is a message that
we need to hear and believe. No sin is too great to
be forgiven, for Jesus’ mercy is greater and He
wants us to return to Him. Who among us can say
that we are not in need of His mercy in our lives.
Personally, I find myself often repeating those five
words of comfort and trust in God’s will for me,
“Jesus I trust in you.”
Jesus, who filled St. Faustina with profound
veneration for your boundless Mercy, if it be your
holy will to grant me, through her intercession, the
grace for which I fervently pray…..

CO&GRATULATIO&S!
Parishioners of Sacred Heart-St. Mary’s congratulate Fr.
John Mikalajunas, pastor of Holy Trinity Church, who
was recently honored with the title of Canon. Fr. John is
the first American Born Priest in the Diocese to have this
granted to him. His title is now Rev. Canon John E. Mikalajunas or Ks. Kanonik in Polish.
RCIA
The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults is a process by
which adults are initiated into the Catholic Church. In this
process, informal learning sessions are held for adults
who are interested in becoming Catholic, and also for
Baptized Catholic adults who have never received the
Sacrament of Eucharist, and/or Confirmation, or who are
interested in returning to the Faith or being renewed in
their Faith. If you would like more information, please
call Terry Streit at 939-3485.
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.
PLEASE DO &OT REMOVE MISSALETTES OR
MUSIC BOOKS FROM CHURCH. THANK YOU.
13 TUESDAYS &OVE&A TO ST. A&THO&Y OF
PADUA at St. Anthony’s-St. Agnes Church will begin

Prayers, Benediction and a Blessing with Relics of St.
Anthony.
