Prayer in times of pestilence
Stella caeli exstirpavit
Quae lactavit Dominum
Mortis pestem quam plantavit
Primus parens hominum.
Ipsa Stella nunc dignetur
Sidera compescere,
Quorum bella plebem caedunt
Dirae mortis ulcere.
O gloriosa Stella Maris
A peste succurre nobis;
Audi nos, nam te Filius
Nihil negans honorat.
Salva nos Jesu pro quibus
Virgo mater te orat!
The Star of Heaven that nourished the Lord drove
away the plague of death which the first parents of
man brought into the world. May this bright Star
now vouchsafe to extinguish that foul constellation
whose battles have slain the people with the wound
of death.
O most pious Star of the Sea, preserve us from
pestilence; hear us, O Lady, for Thy Son honors Thee
by denying Thee nothing. Save us, O Jesus, for whom
Thy Virgin Mother supplicates Thee.
Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,
I hope that everyone has been having a very happy Easter! Last weekend we began the celebra-
tions of this great feast of the Church. The Easter Vigil was celebrated privately, of course, as were the
Masses of Easter Sunday. It was strange having such an empty church as the light from the Paschal Can-
dle shone out, but it was an apt symbol of Christ shining through the darkness of sin and death. It was a
reminder of the great hope we have in Christ no matter what difficulties we may face. And the Easter
Octave continues through this next Sunday as well, so the feast is not over! What is more, we will be cel-
ebrating the Easter Season for a total of fifty days until we arrive at the Feast of the Pentecost.
I want to remind everyone that we will be continuing with the usual Sunday schedule each
and every Sunday (if a change needs to be made you will be notified by email, plus it will be posted on
the website). This means that we will have Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament from 9:00am to
11:00am. We will have confessions from 9:30am to 11:00am and then the procession at 11:00am.
If confessions go beyond 11:00am then the procession will start a little later.
A big “thank you” to our organist, Sarah Faux! She made masks to give out for both adults and
children. They were very popular, and it looks like we’ll probably have more this weekend. We were
also able to hand out copies of the Sentinel, as well as some other items. And we still have palms for an-
yone who would like to take some home.
Thank you to all who have sent in contributions for our collection. In addition to having the bas-
ket in the church, we’ve been coming around to cars after Adoration with the basket, plus we’ve been
receiving contributions by mail. I received an email from the archdiocese about setting up online giving.
If this is an option that interests you, please email or call and let us know. If there are enough people
who would like to use this option, we will set it up.
In your charity please pray for the repose of the soul of my great-aunt Mary Rexwinkle. She was
my grandmother’s sister and would have been 94 in a couple of months. This marks the third death in
my family in the last four months, but I am consoled that she lived a very full life and was able to die
with the sacraments of the Church. I will be going down to California to celebrate the funeral once the
current restrictions are lifted.
As you can see from the website, there are some new links posted. There are some options to
pray along with Archbishop Sample for various upcoming events, including a Holy Hour for Divine Mer-
cy Sunday.
I also wanted to make another option available to parishioners: if you are not available to come
for Adoration on Sundays, I would like to offer the option to come to the church or chapel for Adoration
of the Blessed Sacrament (without Exposition) during the week. If this interests you, just call or email
and let me know what day and time you would prefer. Afternoons Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and
Friday are best. Once we work out a time and date, I will have the church or chapel open for you. You
can come with your household, but I do not want to have different households in the church at the same
time. Also, I will instruct you how to sterilize the area with wipes when you are finished.
Many blessings upon you and your families during the Easter Season!
Yours in Christ,
Fr. Clifton
