On Easter Sunday, Pope Francis released his Urbi et Orbi blessing during Mass at Saint Peter's Basilica. His message discussed a need for peace throughout the world, especially in the Middle East, Western Balkans, Haiti, Africa and Ukraine. Pope Francis continues by saying "On this day when we celebrate the life given us in the resurrection of the Son, let us remember the infinite love of God for each of us: a love that overcomes every limit and every weakness."
Pope Francis urges us all to welcome the peace of the Lord into our own lives, and to experience the joyful proclamation of Easter.

RESERVE YOUR PARKING SPOT AT THE NEC
Hey friends, the National Eucharistic Congress will be here before we know it! And, we have some great news to share, and for you to pass along to everyone at your parishes. We can now reserve a parking spot during the Congress! See the link below for more info. Also, our good friend, Ken Ogorek, is reaching out to four parishes—a north, a south, an east and a west—to see if they’d be willing to let folks park there then carpool in to town. No shuttle busses will be provided. So, if you were undecided about coming to the Congress because of parking, hopefully, this will help your concern!

Doors will open at 6:30pm with drinks and appetizers available. The keynote talk will begin at 7:00pm followed by a Q&A session with Julianne. Visit the link below for more details and to register.

These days, we all have one. The app with the big PAUSE button to shut off WiFi in our homes or on specific devices. And it’s such a temptation to hope that we’ve solved the problem of screens by just limiting their use.
Truth be told, while there are plenty of good resources on the question of media limits, for us, there’s one defining reality: we can focus all we want on limiting screen use, but until we take the initiative to create a vibrant family culture with robust real-world alternatives, our family will always slip back into passive consumption of screen culture.

Father John, I used to be the drive-thru lady at Arby's for 20 yrs. I want to thank who ever set up the mass to be seen on the computer. After a month of trying to stand on my legs & stand without my back hurting very bad, the Specialist told me I couldn't work anymore. I was put on disability only a month later. I walk with a rollator for very short distances. I cannot set up straight for any amount of time & kneeling is out of the question. The one thing I miss so very much is the feeling I had after being at Mass. Therefore, I am so thankful for the Masses being put on YouTube. God Bless You.
