OLP Prayer Shawl Ministry
Prayer shawls are hand knitted or crocheted piece of
material that was blessed for the use of the Sick in our
community. They are intended to be a reminder of God’s
ever-present love and given to parishioners who are facing
serious illnesses and personal losses of many kinds to
reassure them they are not alone. Thanks to the generosity
of Anna Hudson, a number of prayer shawls were blessed
and distributed at the Mass of the Anointing of the Sick on
Tuesday, March 24. If you would like to participate in this
new ministry, please contact Anna Hudson at 2528409. Once Prayer Shawl makers are identified, the group
will determine a ‘knitting schedule’.
Good Friday Collection: For Holy Land
Good Friday Collection is requested by the Holy Father and
it supports for the care of Christianity’s Holiest Sites and for
the people living in the Holy Land. Please be generous
when you come for Good Friday Service, as your
abundance allows.

News from OLP Guild
OLP Guild is pleased to make a donation to Northwinds
Grocery to purchase 2 bikes for the Annual Easter
Celebration they organize for our community. Brian and
Sarah are grateful to receive our support as we too have
received their help in many occasions for our Church
Program.
Another donation is made to Akeley Food Shelf this month,
as the month of March is considered to be a time to pledge
our supports to the Food Drive efforts in our community.
Please note that we will be resuming OLP Guild’s Regular
Meetings from April. Our spring meeting is scheduled for
Wednesday, April 22 at 9:30 AM. We hope to see many of
you participating in our regular meetings. ~ Nancy Greene
Palm Sunday Reflection
Palm Sunday appears to be about two events, the entrance
with palms into Jerusalem and the exit with a cross to
Calvary. But it is really about one event: the call to follow
the Lord wherever He leads us in joy and in sorrow.
We are tempted to consider Jesus’ entrance into Jerusalem,
but ignore His exit from the city. It is easy to join in the
joyful celebrations of our faith. We go to Church on
Christmas and Easter and leave full of warmth. We present
our children for baptism, communion and confirmation,
and believe that God walks with them. We attend a retreat
or conference and have a deep experience of the Lord’s
presence. And so we say, “Isn’t it great to be a Catholic?”
In these and many other ways we join the crowd welcoming
the Messiah into our city, into our lives.
Then we realize that the palms are followed by the passion.
And the joy of experiencing the Presence of the Lord is
followed by His demand to join Him in the journey of
sacrificial love, in the journey up to Calvary.
And this is difficult, at times even overwhelming. We know
that we are called to stand apart from the immoral aspects
of society. We know that we are called to be holy. But we
are continually drawn in to join those who don’t for a
second care about God. They are the vocal majority. They
host the best parties with all the worst elements. They
confuse freedom with licentiousness.
But then we look at the cross. We shout out, “It is good for
us to be here,” not on the Mountain of the Transfiguration,
but on the Mountain of Calvary. And we experience the joy
of following Him, following Him not just in the triumph of
the palms, but also in the triumph of the cross. We walk
away from the immoral crowd and walk with Jesus. He
draws us to Himself, to His cross. And in this way He frees
us from enslavement to sin.
May our celebration of Holy Week and Easter lead us to a
deeper personal experience of Jesus’ life, death and
resurrection.
~ Joseph Pellegrino
Easter Flower Offering
KC Food shelf Drive Report
If you wish to make a memorial for a deceased
loved one or honor a living during this season of
Easter, you may use the Easter Flower Envelope
in your offering box or use this Bulletin cut out

Last weekend donations from both STC and OLP pushed
us to over 1350 lbs of goods and $760 cash donations
to-date. We are Blessed to have such giving members in
both communities to support families in need. Be aware
that some companies have matching fund programs that
you can leverage, if your cash donation dollars can be
stretched! Palm Sunday weekend will be the conclusion to
our KC Food Drive and both food shelf programs have
expressed their appreciation towards the donations made
to-date. If you donated goods but didn't fill out a donation
slip, please contact one of the KC members. By filling them
out, you can receive a credit in your Statement of 2015
