Dear Good People of Saint Mary,
SAINT
M A RY
of the
I M M A C U L AT E
CONCEPTION
Roman Catholic Church
HOLY CROSS ACADEMY
Really, at every Mass—but especially at Easter—
we should be singing our loudest, like it might
be the last time we get to sing praise. It doesn't
make any sense at all to hold back. And it always
sounds so beautiful, because it is the voice of the
Body of Christ singing to the Father.
Happy Easter to you! Our Lord Jesus, the fullness of life and love, conquers the worst of sin
and death and carries us with him over death to
eternal life. Today is the beginning of all the rest
there is: let us rejoice!
At Easter Masses when we renew our baptismal
promises: Do you believe...? The "I DO"" should
take the roof off of Saint Expo. Because there is
nothing more important to be said at that moment, or any moment of our whole life. I say this
sometimes at baptisms: "Say it like you mean it!"
First of all, I want to thank you for coming to
Mass this Easter day. I know it must seem
strange for some of you gathering for Easter in
the Expo Center—that is, if you weren't here ten
years ago when we attempted Easter Sunday at
the church for the last time! Imagine: you can
only have one Vigil, and we see about 7,500-8,000
people at the three Masses on Easter. Everyone
would need to come, and get in and out of the
parking lot 11 or 12 times on Easter morning!
And, by the way, everyone likes the 10:30 Mass!
It's true, sometimes our thoughts are elsewhere.
Maybe we don't feel like singing, or maybe we
would like a different song. As one of our former
music directors told me one time (not David!)
when I told them I really didn't like a particular
song and would prefer we not use it, I was told,
"Well, isn't it a good thing that it's not all about
you?!" No one had ever told me that before. I
learned a lesson, point taken. (It might have been
delivered a bit more respectfully, but point taken.)
When we participate, it is not I who live, it is Christ
who lives in me—in a most perfect way when we
gather in Jesus' name and pray, and celebrate. It
fulfills us, and the by-product is our joy.
I was talking about this last week and was telling someone who had never been to our Easter
Masses at "Saint Expo" how much fun it was to
celebrate Mass there. They stopped, and looked
at me strangely. Can Mass be fun? Well, maybe I
haven't always had the greatest of word choices,
but I was trying to express something maybe
with a word that doesn't really exist.
Mass at Expo is remarkable. Listen to the sound
of 3,500 people singing. Just look around and get
a sense of how profound is the Body of Christ in
Fredericksburg. So present. It is uncommon. It
is also a whole lot of fun to celebrate it with you.
Maybe people just need permission. I give it.
It is okay to be so filled with joy today because
of the gift of mercy and new life and salvation
brought about by Jesus' Passion, Death and Resurrection: you can sing like mad. You may have
tears. You may become absolutely lost in the
love of God and discover something new about
yourselves and our parish family. That we are a
people called through the Resurrection of Jesus to
be people who celebrate life for God and for one
another. And celebrate it with every ounce of our
gratitude and love.
I'll never forget, I had been here at Saint Mary
only a short time and someone sent me a not-sonice email about how I had to stop smiling when
I was distributing Eucharist at Mass! I mean,
I wasn't being goofy or anything. Still, I can't
imagine anything that could make us happier.
Yet for them it was somehow diminishing the
solemnity of the moment. But what other emoAnd there is no one who is excluded from this
tion could be more right? Isn't it true? Someinvitation to discover this remarkable, profound,
where inside us we have been convinced that
uncommon presence—both of God in our lives,
being reverent isn't something you really, down
but also our life in God. It is where we come
deep enjoy... there must be something wrong. It's together to be most completely who we are,
like if the music is a little quicker and brighter,
undeserving sinners though we probably remain,
back in the back of our minds we could think
to learn to forgive by being forgiven, how to love
that it is somehow less sacred. Is it possible that
by coming to know one another and how to serve
there is no other day in which we would be more by our being near him. Let this joy overflow, and
joyful—in our whole lives—than today? The day transform all the days to come as we live it.
when you and I, members of the Body of Christ,
celebrate the resurrection of the Body of Christ.
God bless you.

Enrich your life
If you, like so many adults
today, completed religious
education / faith formation only
through eighth grade and now
find yourself frustrated with
how adult life can't be served
by an eighth grade concept
of God or an eighth grader's
approach to religion,
then you understand
why continuing, lifelong formation is so
necessary. One of the
goals we set out to
meet this past year
at Saint Mary was to
add a diversity of classes,
prayer and discussion
groups to enrich your life.
Last year we invited all adults
to a range of classes, workshops
and presentations including:
• Small Lenten Bible Study
Groups
• Called and Gifted Groups
and Workshop
• Lectio Divina classes
• Saturday morning Spanish
Prayer and Life Workshops
• Acts of the Apostles Bible
Study
• Walking with Purpose
classes: "Keeping in
Balance," and "Opening
Your Heart"
• Catholic Divorce Survival
Guide class
• Bishop Barron’s 6-week
series with Fr. Don on "The
Mystery of God: Who God
Is and Why He Matters."
• Life in the Spirit prayer
gathering
• Rite of Christian Initiation
for Adults (RCIA)
• St. Anne Sisters in Faith
• Saint Mary Young Adults
In the coming year, watch the
bulletin and join us as we
repeat again many of these
favorites and continue to add
new programs and topics to
our list of offerings in Adult
Education.

Divine Mercy Devotions
The Second Sunday of
Easter, April 3, is also
Divine Mercy Sunday. It
was named by Pope John
Paul II at the canonization
of St. Maria Faustina on
April 30, 2000, and then
officially decreed by the
Vatican. Our Parish will have
Divine Mercy Devotions
immediately following the
2pm Spanish Mass April 3.
Jesus revealed in various
revelations to St. Faustina
that it was his desire that we
celebrate this special feast.
"The Feast of Mercy emerged
from my very depths of
tenderness. It is my desire that
it be solemnly celebrated on
the first Sunday after Easter.
Mankind will not have peace
until it turns to the Fount of
my Mercy." (Diary, 699)
The children’s charity that
will benefit from offerings in
April is the Operation Purple
Program of the National Military
Family Association. When you
hear "Operation Purple Camp"
you should think: Kids Serve
Too! The camps are a time for
having fun, making friends,
and reminding military kids
that they are the Nation's
youngest heroes For more
information, visit their website
at militaryfamily.org/kidsoperation-purple/camps/.
Pro-Life Reflection
On the morning of Jesus’
Resurrection, Mary Magdalene
having seen the empty Tomb,
ran back to the Disciples. Peter
and John, having heard her
story, ran toward the Tomb.
And in the end, of course, all
the Apostles ran into the world
to announce this greatest news
of history. We, too, must run
to announce the Gospel of
Life with vigor and to save the
unborn with urgency. Lord, fill
me with the vigor of Easter each
day so that I may announce the
victory of Life.

Shroud of Turin replica
coming to Saint Mary
The Shroud of Turin talk and
replica is coming to Saint
Mary Saturday, April 16 at
1pm. Considered one of the
greatest mysteries of our time,
the Shroud of Turin continues
to amaze and baffle scientists,
doctors, historians, artists and
theologians. Scientists cannot
explain the source of the image
which contains photographic
and 3-D properties on a cloth
centuries old. But is this the
actual burial cloth of Jesus
Christ? Bill Wingard, a speaker
for the Shroud, will present
the case for authenticity, and
you can be the judge. Come
see a full size replica of the
Shroud and the photographic
negative images that sparked an
explosion of scientific interest
and debate over a century ago
which continues to today. What
message does the Shroud have
for each of us?

Acts of the Apostles
10:34, 37-43
proclaimed in English
at the 12:30 Mass
En aquellos días, Pedro tomó la palabra y dijo: “Ya saben ustedes lo sucedido en toda Judea,
que tuvo principio en Galilea, después del bautismo predicado por Juan: cómo Dios unigó con el
poder del Espíritu Santo a Jesús de Nazaret y cómo éste pasó haciendo el bien, sanando a todos
los oprimidos por el diablo, porque Dios estaba con él. Nosotros somos testigos de cuanto él hizo
en Judea y en Jerusalén. La mataron colgándolo de la cruz, pero Dios lo resucitó al tercer día y
le concedió verlo, no a todo el pueblo, sino únicamente a los testigos que él, de antemano, había
escogido: a nosotros, que hemos comido y bebido con él después de que resucitó de entre los
muertos. Él nos mandó predicar al pueblo y dar testimonio de que Dios lo ha constituido juez de
vivos y muertos. El testimonio de los profetas es unánime: que cuantos creen en él reciben, por su
medio, el perdón de los pecados”.
The word of the Lord.
- Thanks be to God.
RESPONSORIAL PSALM

Mass at 8:00 & 10:15
Mass at 12:30
Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good,
for his mercy endures forever.
Let the house of Israel say,
“His mercy endures forever.”
The right hand of the Lord has struck with power;
the right hand of the Lord is exalted.
I shall not die, but live,
and declare the works of the Lord.
The stone which the builders rejected
has become the cornerstone.
By the Lord has this been done;
it is wonderful in our eyes.

Den gracias al Señor porque es bueno,
porque es eterna su misericordia.
Diga la casa de Israel:
eterna es su misericordia.
La diestra del Señor es poderosa,
la diestra del Señor es excelsa.
No he de morir, viviré
para contar las hazañas del Señor.
La piedra que desecharon los arquitectos,
es ahora la piedra angular.
Es el Señor quien lo ha hecho,
ha sido un milagro patente.
Brothers and sisters: Do you not know that a little yeast leavens all the dough? Clear out the old
yeast, so that you may become a fresh batch of dough, inasmuch as you are unleavened. For our
paschal lamb, Christ, has been sacrificed. Therefore, let us celebrate the feast, not with the old yeast,
the yeast of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

PRAYER
(G E NE R A L
I N T E R C E S S I O N S)
On this most holy day, let us pray with one
mind and heart that the joy of Easter may be
shared by all the world.
That the joy of the Risen Christ may inspire
our parish community to proclaim the good
news to all. We pray to the Lord...
Para que la alegría del Cristo Resucitado inspire a
nuestra comunidad parroquial a proclamar las buenas
nuevas a todos. Roguemos al Señor.
That the peace of the Risen Christ may reign
among the nations and peoples of the world,
bring an end to violence and lead all to work
together to uphold the sacred dignity of all
men, women and children. We pray...
Para que la paz del Cristo Resucitado reine entre
las naciones y pueblos de todo el mundo, y que los
guíe a trabajar juntos en el apoyo de la dignidad
sagrada de todos los hombres, mujeres y niños.
Roguemos...
That the hope of the Risen Christ may
console the troubled, reconcile those who are
estranged and alienated, and bring comfort
to all those who suffer from war or repression in the troubled countries of the world.
We pray...
Para que la esperanza del Cristo Resucitado consuele a todos los que tienen problemas, a los que se
sienten extraños o enajenados, y conforte a los que
sufren por la guerra en los países turbulentos del
mundo. Roguemos...
For the newly baptized and confirmed, may
they walk always with Christ in the newness
of life. We pray...
For the protection of all who serve in the
military or public service, that they may be
instruments of peace and safety throughout
the world. We pray...
That the sick and the infirm might experience the healing power of the Spirit of the
Risen Christ. We pray...
That the light of the Risen Christ may shine
on the souls of all our deceased relatives and
friends. We pray...
Father of life, Author of love, in raising your
Son from the grave all creation has been reborn.
May the life and love of the paschal mystery
that we celebrate today be a constant and
lasting reality in our lives. We ask this through
Christ, our Risen Lord. - Amen.

Queen of heaven, rejoice, alleluia.
For he whom you were privileged to bear, alleluia.
Has risen, as he said, alleluia.
Pray for us to God, alleluia.
