DYNAMIC CATHOLIC, ALIVE! —
EASTER
Happy Easter! Christ has opened for us the
way to a new life! The Resurrection of Christ
is the principle of our own resurrection,
now by the justification of our souls and
one day by the new life he will impart to our
bodies (CCC.658). “We firmly believe, and
hence we hope that, just as Christ is truly
risen from the dead and lives forever, so
after death the righteous will live forever
with the risen Christ and he will raise them
up on the last day” (CCC, 989). How can you
experience new life in Christ today?

The Catholic Home Missions Appeal will take place
next week. One way that this appeal works to support
home mission dioceses in the United States is by supporting seminarian formation in poor dioceses. The
blessing of seminarians places a financial burden on
these dioceses, because educating each seminarian
costs $35-40K per year. Your support is needed for
these young men so that they might go back and serve
their parishes. Please strengthen the Church at home
by making a generous gift to next week’s appeal.

SOCIAL JUSTICE
“Solidarity is action on behalf of the one human family,
calling us to help overcome the divisions in our world.
Solidarity binds the rich to the poor. It makes the free
zealous for the cause of the oppressed. It drives the
comfortable and secure to take risks for the victims of
tyranny and war. It calls those who are strong to care for
those who are weak and vulnerable across the spectrum of human life. It opens homes and hearts to those
in flight from terror and to migrants whose daily toil sup~ U.S. Catholic Bishops
ports affluent lifestyles.”
Called to Global Solidarity,

CALL OUR PHONE LINE FOR DAILY PRAYER!!
Our Daily Prayer Connection is a phone line dedicated for daily prayer, especially to homebound
parishioners and caregivers. Call day or night to
hear readings from daily Mass,
prayer texts, and reflections for
each day of the liturgical year.
HEARING ASSISTANCE IN CHURCH!
For those who need help overcoming background noise,
reverberation or distance from the microphones in
church, we have purchased 10 handheld receivers that
connect directly to the audio of our sound system. This
allows listeners to sit anywhere in church and listen at
the volume they need without disturbing others! Receivers are available for borrow before each weekend Mass
and return immediately after. The receivers accept universal headphones/earphones. For hygienic reasons,
please purchase your own headphones, e.g., Walgreens,
Target, Best Buy, etc. Keep them in your purse or car
glove compartment – that way they will be easily accessible when you come to Mass! There is a limited number
of over-the-ear headphones for borrow. We also are
pleased to offer neck loops for parishioners who have
telephone coil hearing aids.
Receivers are available in the small conference room at
the East end of the gathering space. A volunteer will be
there to help you.
STEPHEN MINISTRY
"On the first day of the week, Mary of Magdala came to
the tomb early in the morning while it was still dark, and
saw the stone removed from the tomb. "
~ John 20:1
We all know how the rest of that story goes! He is risen!
Alleluia! Alleluia! Hope... He gave to us! In this most remarkable act of love, lies our hope. Amidst chocolate
bunnies, pink and purple 'grass', and jelly beans, it may
be difficult to remember what Easter Sunday is really
about! We have been given our greatest gift...He died,
and then rose from the dead...for us! So that we can
live! When we are faced with life issues, such as death
of a loved one; job loss; loneliness; issues that shake
our foundation of faith, and more, we generally turn toward ourselves, and the struggle of 'getting through' this
issue.
The problem of that approach is that it is only our struggle and issue that we see. Consider calling the caring,
listening Stephen Ministry, 739-0230, ext. 130, and
leave a confidential message. Reach out to the specially
trained and selected; lay Stephen Ministers to help you
get through the struggle that you face. Perhaps you will
share in the hope of this day! Please share with someone who may benefit from this message!
MARRIAGE ENCOUNTER
A Marriage Encounter weekend is like springtime because it is a weekend of fresh air, restoration and a rich
fullness of life. If you would like to make your marriage
even more special than it already is, apply for a weekend on April 22-24 or August 5-7. For more information
call 649.7317 or see our website at www.stl-wwme.org.

Rediscover Jesus
An Invitation
By: Matthew Kelly
The “Year of Study”...
Chapter 12
The Soul of the Gospel
Point to Ponder: Everybody needs to forgive somebody.
Verse to Live: “If you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly
father will also forgive you.” ~ Matthew 6:14
Question to Consider: How seriously do you take Jesus’ invitation to
forgive?
Prayer: Jesus, you forgive me even though you know I am going to sin
again. Teach me to be that generous with my forgiveness.
CHAPTER SUMMARY: The Four Signs of a Dynamic Catholic (Page 105-106)
 If you read five pages of a great Catholic book every day, you will be amazed how
your knowledge and enthusiasm for the faith will begin to grow. Five pages a day is
1,825 pages in a year, 18,250 pages in a decade, and 45,625 pages over twenty-five
years. That’s 228 books with an average length of two hundred pages.
THE FOLLOWING ITEMS CAN BE FOUND ON THE ARCHDIOCESE’S WEBSITE (archstl.org),
Click on the Dynamic Catholic Alive! Link, then on “Study.”
ACTION ITEM:
Listen to Lighthouse Catholic Media CDs.
QUOTE: (The Saints on Prayer)
“One must not fear truth, because it is a friend of man and of his freedom.” ~ Pope Benedict XVI

Go make disciples of
all nations
Like last Lent a series of weekly bulletin articles this year
called us to reflect on five areas of discipleship—worship, fellowship, stewardship, service and evangelization. The articles had
four parts: a scripture quote, a quote of someone or an article, my
reflection and Personal Reflection questions for parishioners.
During this Easter season, I ask you again to reflect on
these five areas through different lenses. The first is “Did You
Know.” With over 3700 events each year, Holy Spirit Parish offers
many opportunities for parishioners and others to deepen their
discipleship. The “Did You Know” section will provide interesting
facts about life at Holy Spirit in these five areas. The second section is “What Will/Can I Personally Commit Myself To?” This section invites parishioners to reflect on ways of committing themselves to worship, fellowship, stewardship, service and evangelization.
During Easter time this year we will celebrate the Risen
Lord in several ways. On April 3 we will celebrate Fr. Jerry Meier’s
50th Anniversary of his Ordination to the Priesthood. On Sunday,
May 1, 42 children will receive Jesus for the first time as they
make their First Communion. This year, the Feast of Pentecost, is
the twelfth anniversary of the founding of Holy Spirit Parish. At
those Masses, on May 14 & 15, parishioners will be invited to
make a commitment in the five aspects of discipleship. A brochure with a Commitment Card will be sent home a couple weeks
before the Feast of Pentecost. Part of the brochure will be statements of what parishioners can expect from the parish in each of
the five areas. These statements were developed at several Leadership Community Nights.
During the Easter season, the Sunday readings speak of
how the early church came to a deeper understanding of discipleship. This is the grace that is offered to us each year as we journey from Easter Sunday to the Feast of Pentecost.
Easter Peace,
Fr. Rich Bockskopf
