Jesus lives within us. We can change the world!
Jésus vit en nous. Nous pouvons changer le monde!
Scripture Reflection: As Jesus was
preparing to die, He encouraged the disciples
who were feeling insecure about His leaving
them behind, to seek peace of heart. He said:
“Do not let your hearts be troubled. Believe in God,
believe also in me.” Today’s Gospel is often heard
proclaimed at funeral celebrations as it offers an
incredible message of hope in the promise of eternal life.
Jesus said: “I am the way, and the truth, and the life.”
During the pandemic, we too are feeling insecure about
all that is happening in our world and we are called to
seek peace of heart. Fear cripples us. Hope allows us to
move forward. More than ever, we need to follow Jesus
as the way, the truth and the life. In the conviction of
living the truth that Jesus lives within us, we can, like the
apostles, change the world. The Acts of the Apostles
recount for us the newly forming life of the Church to
which we are committed. With Jesus, we can change the
world by sharing a message of hope.
Réflexion: Alors que Jésus s'apprêtait à mourir, il a
encouragé les disciples qui ne se sentaient pas sûrs qu'Il
les laisse, à rechercher la paix du cœur. Il leur dit: «Que
votre cœur ne soit pas bouleversé; vous croyez en Dieu,
croyez aussi en Moi.» L’Évangile d’aujourd’hui est
souvent entendu lors des célébrations funéraires, car il
offre un incroyable message d’espoir dans la promesse
de la vie éternelle. Jésus a dit: "Je suis le chemin, la vérité
et la vie."
Pendant la pandémie, nous aussi, nous ne sommes pas
sûrs de tout ce qui se passe dans notre monde et nous
sommes appelés à rechercher la paix du cœur. La peur
nous paralyse. L'espoir nous permet d'avancer. Plus que
jamais, nous devons suivre Jésus comme le chemin, la
vérité et la vie. Dans la conviction de vivre la vérité que
Jésus vit en nous, nous pouvons, comme les apôtres,
changer le monde. Les Actes des Apôtres nous racontent
la vie nouvelle de l'Église dans
laquelle nous nous engageons.
Avec Jésus, nous pouvons
changer le monde en partageant
un message d'espoir.
FAMILY OF PARISHES NEWS UPDATE
Consecration to the Blessed Virgin Mary: On
Friday, May 1st at noon, Bishop Fabbro and
Bishop Dabrowski joined Bishops from across
the United States and Canada to consecrate the
Diocese to Mary, Mother of the Church,
seeking her protections during the Coronavirus pandemic.
You can view the Consecration here: https://
youtube.com/user/wwwdolca.
Happy Mother’s Day: We offer our finest wishes to
all of the Moms in our Family of
Parishes and though we may be isolated
from them at this time, our prayers for
them will be a great blessing. Give
thanks to God for your mom and let her
know today in a special way how special she is! And if
by chance your mom is already in the presence of God,
then thank Him for her life and pray that her intercession
will lead you into His heavenly kingdom.
Weekly Mass for our Family of Parishes: Join us online this Sunday for either a French or English Mass. The videos will be made available beginning at
9:00am and can be viewed anytime afterwards. Click
here to go directly to our YouTube Channel.
May & Mother’s Day: May is a month traditionally
dedicated to honoring the Blessed Virgin
Mary. In our churches and homes, we
celebrate May as a “Marian month,” with
May processions, May crownings, and
other popular devotions in honor of the
Mother of God. This Marian month falls
during the liturgical season of Easter. We
thus particularly emphasize Our Blessed Mother’s
participation in the Paschal Mystery and her presence
with the Church in preparation for Pentecost, just as she
prayed with the disciples in the upper room while they
awaited the descent of the Holy Spirit.
It is very fitting that we celebrate Mother’s Day during
the Marian month. As we honor the Mother of God, our
spiritual mother, we also honor our earthly mothers. On
Mother’s Day, we remember with gratitude and affection
our mothers, not only through material gifts, flowers, or
cards, but also, and more importantly, by our prayers for
them. We thank God for the gift of our mothers who
conceived and gave birth to us, who cared for us,
protected us, taught us, and loved us. Many passed on the
precious gift of faith to us. We remember all our mothers,
living and deceased. We thank them for their generosity
and self-giving love.
Mary is a model for all mothers. Pope Benedict XVI said
that “Mary is the image and model of all mothers, of their
great mission to be guardians of life, of their mission to
be teachers of the art of living and of the art of loving.”
