EASTER SUNDAY PAGE 1 MARCH 27, 2016 Our Lady of the Lakes Waterford, Michigan We welcome those listed who have received the sacraments noted at the Easter Vigil, Saturday, March 26, 2016. Baptism, First Eucharist and Confirmation Jacob Antonio Maximilian Bombardo Angela Cealest Angela Collins Kegan Michael Michael Collins Chelsea Meghan Anne Foerster Lucas James James Kropinak Jiahua Joseph Zhao (January 26, 2016) Baptism and First Eucharist Lisa Mary Ann Collins David Larry Hubert Cottrell Theresa Lee Anne Gliha Jennifer Marie Joan Jex Rachel Marie Elizabeth Ann Tague Confirmation Kaylen Marie Catherine Wilson OUR LADY OF THE LAKES PAGE 2 WATERFORD, MICHIGAN Through a Glass Darkly FR. BRIAN’S BLESSINGS HAPPY AND BLESSED EASTER – This incredible day is a joyous celebration of God’s great love. The resurrection of Jesus completely changed the created universe. For the first time since creation, someone died and then was raised from the dead. If creation began with a big bang, then Jesus’ resurrection was a gigantic bang. Why do you seek the Living One among the dead? Luke 24:5 But not only has the immensity of creation changed, but each individual was changed and, continuing forward, every individual is changed. In the past when sins bore down on people, there was nothing to lift the burden. Now we know that we are forgiven. Jesus rose from the dead to prove that everything he had said about God’s mercy and forgiveness was true. Mercy is ours for the asking. Not only mercy and forgiveness, we will never die! Again, Jesus’ rising from the dead meant that all of us will live forever. The body may die for now, but we will live forever. Alleluia! Fr. Delonnay Priestly Vocations DISCERNMENT OVERNIGHT A Discernment Overnight offers a young high school man (Freshman-Junior in high school) a unique opportunity to experience the seminary and learn about the priesthood. We host two Overnights each academic year and you’re encouraged to attend both. There’s no better way to learn about life in the seminary then from a current seminarian! You’ll hear presentations, pray, eat and recreate with them. There is also time for quiet reflection. Take the “leap of faith” and consider an Overnight visit at Sacred Heart Seminary so you can better discern your vocation. For more information detroitpriest.com. or to register OLL PRAYER REQUEST LINE 248-623-0274 ext 120 [email protected] Touch “Prayers” in our Parish App visit Happy Easter! He is risen. He is risen indeed! May the joys and blessings of Easter (which lasts not for a day, week, or month, but for 50 days!) truly fill our hearts. We trust that God will fill our hearts and lives which have been so emptied out by the days of Lent. Journeying through the desert of Lent to the hill of Calvary, we have emptied ourselves of all sorts of things. We have emptied ourselves of food and drink in our fasts and disciplines. We have emptied ourselves of pride and self-reliance as we have leaned on the Lord in prayer. We have emptied ourselves of our money, time, and worldly goods by remembering the needs of others in our almsgiving. On Palm Sunday we heard in the readings and the Passion how Christ emptied himself and how God greatly exalted him. Today, we celebrate best of all empty things, the empty tomb. Alleluia! The tomb is empty! Death does not have the last word. Death is completely silenced by the Word of God and the name above all names, Christ Jesus. Christ is triumphant! Christ reigns! As Christians, we believe that if we die with him—die to all those sins, thoughts, words, and deeds that separate us from God—we will truly live with him. Not only do we live with him, we reign with him. Welcome home to our extended Laker family gathering for Easter or to any other guests and visitors. What great work the Holy Spirit has done to bring us all together as one to celebrate the joy of Easter. May you find in our parish a warm and inviting home where the love of God is lived out in love of neighbor. I would like to extend a most heartfelt congratulation to our catechumens… I mean elect… that is neophytes (our new Catholics!) from the RCIA program and their sponsors. A huge word of gratitude goes as well to Artha Horowitz and Ann Marie Chambers (and their families!) for the amazing and immense work done in preparing the RCIA for this day. Thank you also to the whole parish community for making my first Easter as a priest incredibly special, grace filled, and memorable. God is good! 50 days for our delight for Christ is ris’n as all things tell—Good Christian, see ye rise as well! Fr. Brian [email protected] 248-623-0274 x126 PANCAKE BREAKFAST The Knights of Columbus are hosting a "Pancakes for Priests Breakfast" next Sunday, April 3rd, from 9am to 1pm in St. Joseph Hall.

VINCENT de PAUL FEBRUARY UPDATE During the month of February, Our Lady of the Lakes St. Vincent de Paul spent $11,934.20. We made deposits of $5,759.93. We made 3 home visits, had 11 interviews in the Parish Center, made 93 phone calls and helped over 115 individuals. We helped one single mother of 5 children. She was recently divorced, had health issues, was not able to work and was trying to make ends meet on a very low income. Her income should increase in the future. We helped her catch up on back rent. This stopped the eviction for her and her children. We are able to help because we are supported by our parish family. Thank you for your generous support. This ministry would not happen without you.

STEWARDSHIP THOUGHT Today’s Easter readings joyously focus on our risen Lord and Savior — we are recreated to new life in Christ through this Easter miracle and our Baptism in the Lord. His death and Resurrection pave the way to eternal life for all those who seek salvation. As faithful stewards, we stand in awe and gratitude for this tremendous gift and exclaim, “The Lord has risen. Alleluia!” In gratitude, pause this Easter Sunday to thank the Lord for His tremendous gift of salvation. Thank you for supporting your parish! CSA MINUTE EASTER Easter is a time of great joy when we are reminded that the Lord walks beside us on our journey of faith. We witness Christ’s living presence in many ways, one of which is through our support of our local communion of faith through the Catholic Services Appeal. Our annual CSA supports the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults, which brings new members into full communion during the Easter Vigil. The CSA enables us to reveal Christ’s presence not only to our sisters and brothers with whom we share the Eucharist, but also to those who do not know Christ. Gifts to the CSA show that Christ is present and active in our world. Indeed, He is risen today. Alleluia!

This announcement was the culmination of Jesus appearing to St. Faustina and asking her to instill a day dedicated to His Mercy. On this Sunday, a Plenary Indulgence can be received. On April 3, 2016, Archbishop Allen H. Vigneron will celebrate the Feast of Divine Mercy at the Cathedral of the Most Blessed Sacrament, where there will also be a procession of the Divine Mercy Image and veneration of a St. Faustina relic.
